THE SANDWICH
Father's death

After hearing Marcell's explanation, Novi's feelings became mixed.

He was angry because it turned out that Adi was not hit by another vehicle, but because it was following a wild race.

“ He confessed it because he wanted to join the study tour “ said Marcell afraid of fear

“ Kok Adi did not tell me if there was a study tour at school? “

“ Because Adi does not want to spend money study tour big enough nominal “

“ How much? “ Ask Novi probing.

“ Three million rupiah ”

Adi did not tell about his study tour to Novi, three million money can be used for their family's living expenses in a month.

“ Please don't tell Adi if I tell ya Kak “

“Iya calm, Lo go home already malem later nyokap Lo nyariin again. Thank you for taking Adi to Hospital “

“Iya equally Brother, I say yes Kak “

Marcell is Adi's little friend. From Elementary School to High School they always attend the same school.

Only Marcell wants to be friends with Adi. Although He came from a family, but He always cared about Adi.

Novi remembers once when his father died, and Mom started selling one by one the houses they owned, one by one friends and relatives started to stay away from them.

They seem to be afraid of becoming poor like their families. Even Novi's close friends at school no longer want to be friends with him.

It turns out that Father's death not only made them lose their father figure but also lost friends and relatives.

Since then Novi has never made friends with anyone, he does not want to be seen as a contagious disease by others.

But Marcell is different, since Dad died automatically we are no longer able to attend private school anymore, Mom then moved us to a public school close to home.

Marcell who was close to Adi whined to his parents asking to move to public school with Adi.

Obviously Marcell's parents refused, Marcell's father was one of the officials at Pertamina even to send Marcell abroad they could, he said, where might they want if his only son attended public school.

The more forbidden Marcell the more he did not want to go to school, he even went on strike for a month.

Both of Marcell's parents eventually relented and moved Marcell to the same public school as Adi.

“ Marcell where Nov? “ Ask Mom when she sees me coming alone.

“ I told you to go home Mom, pity tomorrow must be school. No call from inside, ma'am? “

Mother sigh long “ Not Nov “

Seen once Mother is very worried about the state of Adi, it has been almost two hours they wait on IGD but there has been no news about Adi.

Novi clasped his mother's hand to strengthen each other.

Not long after, a nurse called them.

“ Family Adi Wijaya?”

” Yes We are Sus family, how is Adi's condition? “ Ask Mom.

“ We have sewed the hands and feet of patients who have torn wounds, but the torn wound on his forehead is too large so surgery must be done to patch the torn wound by taking other parts “

" But Adi's already aware of Sus? "

" The patient is conscious and is now under observation before surgery "

“ Good Sus, what operation can use BPJS? “

“ Good Sus thank you very much “

“ Mom go home first let Novi who is waiting for Adi mumpung tomorrow I take off ”

Novi could not bear to see the face of Mother who was tired and sleepy and he immediately ordered a taxi online to take her home.

Back when his father was alive, if any of them were sick then Dad would accompany us at the Hospital until we recovered.

After he is healed he will comply with our requests.

At that time Adi was exposed to dengue fever, platelets plunged freely, doctors did not even allow Adi to get out of bed so that his blood vessels did not rupture.

Dad accompanied Adi twenty-four hours, he took leave from the office to take care of Adi until he recovered.

And when Adi recovered he asked to take a vacation to Taman Safari Puncak.

Without thinking long, I agree to Adi's request.

Be the Sunday the four of us went to the safari park and it was one of my fond memories with Dad.

For his family, Dad was the perfect man. Dad was a hard worker, loved the family and had a high social spirit.

From childhood we were taught to share our sustenance to the orphanage.

Even Dad is a regular donor at the Mother Wing Orphanage.

When Father died, not only their families were sad but all the children in Wings Mother orphanage were saddened by the departure of Father.

Novi still remembers, on a sunny Sunday morning. He and Adi are watching Doraemon on TV.

His father bailed to play tennis with his office mates.

Dad's face looked fresh that day, his wet hair neatly combed back. Dad's wearing a white tennis suit.

" Dad went to play tennis first, baby, you're good, same you can't fight, Ok "

" Yes Dad" Adi answered while hugging the spoiled Dad.

" Boy Father, later if it is big must be strong yes in order to protect Brother and Mother "

" Yes dong Dad, Adi is Dad's son "

After that Dad went with in between Mom to the front of the house, then a black mercedes car took Dad away.

They did not expect that the meeting that morning with Dad was their last meeting.

While they were taking a nap, Mom got a call from the hospital.

With panicked faces the mother went to the hospital accompanied by Mr. Anton their family driver.

I don't let Novi and Adi go to the hospital "You guys just wait at home and pray Daddy's okay "

Anxious Novi and Andi wait for his father and mother to come home.

But instead of a black Mercedes entering his yard, they both saw a white ambulance carrying Dad's body.

Seen Mother is not ceaselessly crying, aunt Irene sister of papa trying to calm mother.

My sister and I cried when they saw my father's body being gored into the house.

Father was already forgiven, his face looked like a sleeping person looked very peaceful.

Adi Novi and Ibu are not allowed to approach Dad if you are still crying, because if you have bathed the body should not be exposed to tears.

It was as if their world had fallen apart, a good husband and a great father had left them forever.
