The Repentance of the Abject Woman
25 Silent Nights

"Milk, umi... The doctor lied... Yes, it is mas...Hiks..."

Adam hugged Zee.

Adam could no longer pretend to look strong.

Adam also cried bitterly to see his earth that was lying lifeless again.

"Permy... Oh, my God, wake up. This is Adam here umi, o Allah umi...." Shouted Adam while hugging his earthly body that was starting to cool.

They both cried because they did not think that umi Fatimah would leave so soon.

"Umi.hiks... Oh Allah.... Only for a moment can I feel the affection of a mother, why do You take again, O God...." Tangier Zee

*****

After taking care of everything, now is the time for umi Fatimah to be buried.

The departure of the Fatimah Umi leaves a wound that can not be healed by anyone.

Adam tried hard when putting his mummy in a burrow.

His gaze that began to blur as his endless tears flowed.

Even the chanting of the Adhan he was holding had stopped several times.

His voice stopped in his throat and could not continue.

Adhan was replaced by Ustadz Syam.

After the funeral procession was completed one by one the residents began to disperse.

Now it's just Adam, Zee, Kirana and his parents.

Adam embraces Zee's shoulder which still continues to cry.

Kirana approached them and conveyed a sense of condolence.

"According to my condolences, who sincerely so that the Umi can calm there" said Kirana

"Yes, God willing, we are sincere. I'm sorry if umi's wrong..."

"Not only me, all residents know that umi Fatimah is a good person. Everyone loves it and God willing everyone has forgiven"

"True Kirana, you must be sincere. The strong one, yes..." Connect bu Fitri

"Thank you aunt" Adam answered

"Yes, then we'll take our leave"

Ms. Fitri and her husband then took Kirana home to leave Adam and Zee.

Kirana felt very unbearable to see the current Adam who was so injured.

It felt like he alone was calming Adam down, but it seemed like Adam was calmer as Zee returned his embrace.

Kirana still loves Adam so much, it hurts to see Adam with another woman.

Bu Fitri realized the meaning of his daughter's view of Adam

"Stop looking at her, she's already married. Throw away your feelings, son. Let's go home"

Bu Fitri held Kirana's hand and took her home.

"Mom knows how you feel about Adam, but you have to accept the fact that Adam already belongs to someone else. Don't torment your mind by continuing to store that feeling. Throw away"

Bu Fitri continues to encourage his daughter to move on from Adam.

Bu Fitri could not bear to see his daughter who still hoped for Adam.

Therefore bu Fitri intends to match Kirana in order to soon forget Adam.

*****

When we got to Adam and Zee's house, we sat on the couch, pensive.

They were both immersed in their thoughts.

The ringtone of Adam's voice resuscitated them.

It turned out to be a phone from Adam's friends who said condolences.

A different night, it felt so quiet.

After praying Zee lays her body on the bed, Adam soon arrives and lays her body on the bed.

Adam and Zee had already started sleeping one bed but still with a wide distance.

"Shall you pray?" Ask Adam

"It's already been"

"Why is his face still not out?"

"I feel like there's something less. Umi's departure is still not acceptable"

A clear thread began to drip from his eyelids.

"If I had woken up Umi sooner, maybe umi would have been helped...."

Zee started crying hysterically.

"Why are you talking like that? It's not your fault, it's God's destiny we can't avoid"

Adam hugged Zee tightly. Although the aor of his own eyes also began to fall but Adam immediately wiped it.

"It's all my fault. I left umi alone. If only before I go to the kitchen I go to the room first, Umi will definitely get help faster. Hix... Hicks..."

"Shuutts.... Stop blaming yourself. Quickly or not if God wants to bring the umi back, it can not be resigned.

Cry until your heart feels calmer, but stop blaming yourself, yeah..."

Zee was crying in Adam's arms.

Zee drowned his face in the chest of Adam's field and made Adam's shirt wet with his tears.

Tired of crying, Zee falls asleep in Adam's arms.

Despite cramping and tingling, Adam felt unable to move Zee from his arm.

Adam kept his arm a cushion for Zee until the dawn woke him up.
