CHAPTER 29


Bip .. beep .. beep ..


The sound of hospital monitors seemed to race with the tightness of Salma's heartbeat. A man in a white coat stood in front of Johan's bed. Blue uniform plus a matching mask, can not hide his swollen face. For almost two days Johan was referred to Hermina Hospital in Bandung. During this time Salma's focus was only for her husband. On the right side of the bed were Ayu and Tio, her husband sitting with his hand. Wishing there was a miracle for her father. The sound of nose shrinkage was heard from the pregnant woman. The burly hand ceaselessly calms the woman to not continue to grieve.


"Alright, baby. You do not continue to be sad, we pray that papa Johan can be healed before." persuaded Tio.


"If Juna's brother comes quickly, maybe papa will be fine" said Ayu.


Salma heard Ayu's words immediately explaining her sitting. She explains that Dira miscarried and Salma is sure Juna will not.


"Your brother can't come. Dira had an accident at home so that the content can not be maintained. Dira miscarriage. Juna was supposed to be next to his wife. So we have to understand, Yu."


"If only Dira would join Juna's sister. Surely Kak Juna will not go back and forth Jakarta-Bandung. Now when things like this, Brother Juna even attach more importance to Dira than his parents." Ayu's voice pitched annoyed.


"Darling, you can't. In that case I agree that he should be next to Dira. If I were in that position you would do that too. Or do you want me to leave you for my parents?"


"No, mas. But Juna should have brought Dira to stay in Lembang. The proof until now mas Juna had to leave the factory for his wife."


"There's me, baby. So you said it like you couldn't believe my performance. Yes, I know that my status is only son-in-law. But I don't want to be considered a life in your family's eyes."


"Sorry, mom. I don't mean anything like that." Ayu feels her husband is inferior.


Salma heard her daughter-in-law feel bad. Johan does look to rely on Arjuna rather than Tio. Though Tio also contributed a lot in the progress of the factory. Since long ago Juna was what Johan expected for the successor to the factory. Johan still looked at Tio who was only an outsider to his family. Salma once asked her husband to involve Tio in every project. Just like Arjuna who always brings Tio in every job. One that Salma realized, the circumstances that befell them did not make Johan learn from experience. His heart was still solid with strong walls. The pride was still lodged in her husband's heart.


Juna used to be away from home because of his relationship in about by Johan. Salma has also been blinded by things in the form of matter.


Flashbacks.


"Pa, I can't continue with Delia. We're not in line, pa. Had papa been in my position would have done the same." Answer Juna.


"Your position? you're given a good life you say that." Her mother Juna.


"What's good, ma? I'm not married yet it's been arranged. I'm doing this to report to Mr. Shahab first. I want Dinner with Delia he also set the location and the cost. I feel like a loser here." Adu Juna's.


"What makes you such a loser is yourself, Juna. You and Ayu are given luxurious living facilities by the Shahab family. From the cost of your school from Elementary to graduation. You are given a wife who seeds bebet clear weight. But you refused it." said Mr. Johan.


"Is it because of Dira?" Her mother Juna suddenly asked a question.


"Juna Jawab! is it because of Dira that you canceled this match. Does he affect you or trap you, so you lose your mind choosing which good doesn't." Urge her mother Juna.


"Ma, this has nothing to do with Dira. It's a matter of my pride as a man ma. The one who fired me at Aunt Dewi's office was Mr. Shahab. Mama knows the fate of Dira's company as well as the business of mama and papa. I used to get angry when they took me unilaterally, but now I know why."


"Well, you meet Mr. Shahab. Pull back the cancellation. Papa doesn't want to know! You want to live poor again. Huh!" Amuk Mr. Johan.


Juna stood in front of his father. As if acting against the wishes of his father. He will not give up on his decision. He'll fight for Dira. Because all this time he's been fighting for Delia but it feels like a shame.


"sorry I can't continue papa's wishes. If you want to stay by working for Mr. Shahab please. But don't make me fall into your selfishness."


"June! If you stay that way you're not my son anymore! You get out of this house!"


"Good! I'm out of this house! I can be independent without your interference." Juna got up from his family's living room.


Flashback off


The incident even more anger Juna. He was angry at his father for still wanting to engage in business with Shahab.


"Ma...Where's juna?" asked Johan with a stammer.


"Sorry, mom. Juna can't seem to come yet. His wife went to the hospital. Maybe after Dira's well he can come here."


"Maaa.I want to see Juna. Please tell her I'll be soon." Johan's voice is still disjointed.


"Papa don't talk about it. Papa must be healed. Papa wants to see Ayu's son born, right? you have to be healthy."


"Dream father look at Juna with a smile. Papa wants to see Juna."


"Dewi's old phone first huh?"


"Pa, the tip of love ulam arrived. I just wanted to call the Goddess. He's already called. Mama pick up first, yeah, pa."


Salma picked up the phone from her clothes. He also wanted to know about his son-in-law.


"Assalamualaikum, jeng Dewi." said Salma.


"Waalaikumsalam, jeng Salma." Salma the voice of the Goddess as if she had cried.


"What's the Goddess?" ask Salma.


"Jeng, is Juna there yet?"


"Yet, jeng. Daritadi was inactivated. What's the matter of Goddess?"


"That's Arjuna?"


"What does Goddess mean? what happened to Arjuna?"


The Goddess Lama did not answer Salma's question. "Jeng please tell me what happened to my son." Salma was already outside the room so her husband wouldn't hear her.


"Juna accident, jeng. Juna yesterday the day after returning to Bandung to see his papa. And last night the police went to the house to tell me about Juna's accident."


Still in the hospital, Salma shed her tears. His body felt limp when he found out his son had an accident. Juna had an accident while leaving for Bandung. And from his irony Juna's body has not been found. Only his car was found from the lake. Dewi also told that Dira dropped when she found out her husband had an accident.


Ayu saw her dazed mama immediately catch the middle-aged woman's body. Together with Tio, ayu put her mother's body in one of the hospital chairs.


"Mama why?" ask Ayu.


"Your brother..."


"Sir Juna why? is he still looking for a reason not to come here?" guess Ayu.


"Your brother was in an accident when he left for Bandung. His car entered the lake and has not been found the body." cried Salma broke.


"Innalilahi wa innailaihi rojiun" said Ayu and Tio simultaneously.
