The Story of Doctor Arumi
episode 94
Siti opened the photos. A picture of Arum's father standing in a doctor's white shirt with his hands folded over his chest. Looks very handsome, Mardi who is tall with white skin, nose pointed, eyebrows thick. His face looks a lot like Arumi. So many photos of Arum's father that there are d photo album Anita.
“So you're Mardi's wife?” Anita hugged Siti and heard her crying voice. “I really hope to see him. But all I know now is he's dead.” Anita's tears began to pour. Slowly Anita let go of her embrace.
“Mardi my best friend. We've been friends since childhood.” Anita saw a photo of a boy and a girl standing in their hands. “This is Mardi and this is me.” While showing the photo. “Mas Jhoni is 3 years from us. Mas Jhoni Mardi's best friend. They are close neighbors. I know Jhoni, because Mardi introduced him. Papa and his mother Mardi went out of town to meet their business partner Mardi also wanted to come along. The business was on Saturday. But because there is a lecturer who asked to enter Saturday because the father could not come on Tuesday to go out of town. Mardi did not come along. The car that was under by Mardi's parents, experienced a brake blong so that the car entered into a ravine that was 50 meters deep. The car was very damaged. The bodies of both Mardi's parents were found in the car very horribly. In the accident there was some kind of sabotage that had been planned. But because of the lack of evidence obtained by the police can not ensnare the perpetrator. Mardi is the sole heir of the entire company as well as other possessions. At that time his life was severely threatened. Om Mardi will not want to let go of Mardi just like that. If mArdi still lived all the treasures, would not be able to change hands to him. Eventually Mardi escaped and did not know where. We tried so hard to find him. But always fail. At that time we were 6th semester.
“Who has done sabotage against parents mas Mardi?” ask Siti.
“Adik from Mardi's papa. About Hendro. All the property of his father Mardi was taken by force by om Hendro. Including the house used by papa Mardi. But now Hendro has got his karma and doom. Small companies owned by his father Mardi sold o hendro. A large company engaged in the largest plastic industry in Asia burned.150 employees died in the burn. So many losses suffered. But what makes om hendro bankrupt, when he learned his company did not enter insurance for the last 3 years. Insurance money is always given to his son. Employee insurance and life insurance no one is paid. Om Hendro spent all the money deposited his. Luxury house and some of his luxury cars in the bank. Related to bank debt. Wife om hendro stressed and entered the mental hospital. 2 weeks in RSJ finally aunt Melly committed suicide in the patient's bathroom by hanging her neck using a blanket cloth. Children om Hendro no one wants to take care of it and choose to take om Hendro to the beach nursing.” Clearly Anita while reminiscing about her past.
“What is momuk still often visit to nursing home?” ask Siti curiously.
“Iya. Every time I visit. He was always questioning and asking about Mardi. You don't have to call me mom. Call aja mbak. You're the wife of our best friend.”
“Good mbak.” Siti is still focused on the photo album she holds.
“Bik, call your father here.”
“Good buk.”
“Do you want to visit the nursing home where Hendro Siti is?”
“I will ask Arum.” opinion
Papi, who had just come from the back garden, approached his wife.
“What's mi?”
“Pi, If papi see Arumi, who looks like pi?”
“It seems, his face is familiar. But who does it look like.” Jhoni looked to be remembering. “Mardi mi.”
“Iya pi's. Arum son Mardi.”
“What...,” as if in disbelief. Jhoni's eyes widened perfectly. “Yes allah. They're our kids.” Crying and hugging Anita.
Although they have not been able to meet Mardi, but they are very grateful to be able to meet the family of their friends who have been looking for decades.
“Mas Mardi never told me about his past. She only told me about her medical studies and broke up because her parents died. So I really don't know about his personal matters.” Siti.
“Simply Arumi is very smart ternya down from her father.” Praise Jhoni. Oh allah. So beautiful is God's secret.
“Yuk us back.” Anita holds Siti's hand. They walked to the backyard. Their children gathered there laughing.
