THE WOMAN (END)
03 Them

The time has already shown at 1pm.

I'm the one who just finished Helping Bi Marni do the dishes, immediately prepare the tray for Mas Sandy's lunch.

"Where's Bi's lunch?" I asked because it was Bi marni who took care of Mas Sandy's food.

"On the dining table Lis," Her still busy voice was outside the kitchen.

As I approached the dinner table, I saw two slices of sandwiches with sliced tuna and vegetables and a glass of warm milk. I frowned, how could Mas Sandy be full just by eating this sandwich? though this morning he only ate porridge and soup, that too with a small portion. I went back to meet Bi Marni who was moving the flower seeds that were bought earlier.

"Bi, is that lunch? is there nothing else?"I then squat next to him.

"Toy Food in the refrigerator a lot of anyway, just usually Mas Sandy rarely eat the other. sometimes the bread is only eaten a piece."

I looked at him in wonder, Does he have no appetite or does his portion of food have a little bit, but doesn't the sick person have to have a lot of nutrition? my mind guessed.

"Where would I add another menu? maybe not?"

Bi Marni turned her head slowly and smiled, "Just try to bring other food, who knows Mas Sandy wants to eat! all the ingredients are in the refrigerator, you just take what you need." he said.

"Yes, that's why I went to the kitchen first.thank you Bi" said I left her.

Upon arrival in the kitchen, I immediately approached the refrigerator.I saw various types of fresh vegetables and canned food neatly arranged.My eyes were very spoiled with fresh colors of the food in it. The cold even made me take a deep breath. I smiled wryly as I imagined that if Andi had seen all the contents of this refrigerator, she would have stared in amazement just like what I am doing now. I looked at the side of the fridge at the bottom, there were chives, carrots, corn, peas and fresh shrimp.

"Bikin Nasi fried delicious deh rich," I took some of the ingredients as necessary. Actually, I also have not had lunch because I was busy helping Bi Marni, although several times Bi Marni told her to eat immediately, but I was busy working. I took rice with a rather large portion. "You're so, you can split the two nannya." I thought I was going to the dirty kitchen to cook.

It didn't take long, for the business of making fried rice. I was quite deft. every morning I always prepare breakfast for Andi, of course fried rice is always in my cooking menu every day. even Andi always praised my cooking.

"What are you cooking Lis? the smell is kissing the sampe out of the loh?" Bi Marni came and then washed her hands in the sink.

"Just make fried rice kok bi. Oh yes, I intentionally make a lot of portions for us. Bi Marni hasn't had lunch yet, has she?" I served the fried rice on a plate.

"Well, it's delicious!" Bi Marni came closer and helped me prepare. "You must be a cook?"tanyanya seriously. "Not really, just if at home I used to cook fried rice for Andi." I brought two dishes of fried rice and kept them on the table. "Your son must be very cool, have a good-natured mother and cook like this." He said a little praise.I just smiled thinly and immediately prepared breakfast for Mas Sandy.

"Bi, kalo already laper. eat first, I will follow." pamitku

"Just relax Lis.you anterin aja Sandy's lunch!"

"Yes, I'm leaving now bi!" I rushed to his room far from the kitchen. Living in a big house does need extra energy. And strangely they are very happy to live in a very spacious house but deserted residents like this.

"Excuse me, have lunch first!" I knocked on the door and then entered slowly. A second later, I was shocked by the empty bed.

"Mas Sandy? Is Sandy in the toilet?" I put down my tray and moved towards the toilet.no sound could be heard from inside, I ventured to slowly open the door. "Mas,Mas Sandy?" call me again.

CLAMPS, CLOVES,

The bathroom door was open, and he wasn't there. "Nothing?" I muttered as I stared at the wheelchair located not far from the window, then I stared at the side of the bed but this time the usual Crutches still leaned Neat. I moved quickly to the balcony, who knew she was sunbathing even though I wasn't sure she was doing it. But in fact Mas Sandy wasn't there either. I searched around the room for a long time until I opened the wardrobe, but still she wasn't there.

I ran out of the room and meant to tell bi Marni But as I was a few steps away from the room, I heard an object falling from another room. I turned my head for a moment, the voice was clearly heard from the end of the room on the east side. I saw the door open a little bit. "That's right, Bu Ayu's room? But Bu Ayu at this hour is still in the office" I thought. I walked slowly closer to the door of the room, I undo my intention to tell bi Marni.

Upon arriving at the door, I heard again the sound of objects lying like the middle in a tousle. I squinted my eyes and peered curiously into the room.

"Mas Sandy?" I'm squealing a little.

it turned out that the voice came from Mas Sandy who was busy unpacking the contents of the drawer of Bu Ayu's room. I dare not enter let alone reprimand and just watch what he did. The young man paused for a moment, it seemed like what he was looking for he had already gotten.Sandy was desperately trying to sit on the edge of the bed.

Mobile phone. of course the thing that had been looking for. it turns out this person is really stubborn and very stubborn.It is appropriate that some nurses run away, has certainly not been able to stand his attitude. I snorted small, the young man seemed busy fiddling with his phone. Long enough he stared at the screen of his phone, then later..

BLAKK!

Mas Sandy slammed her phone to the floor.hard enough to make me jerk in shock. Her face turned grim and full of anger. He got up with difficulty and was about to leave the room.I who was shocked suddenly turned around and was about to run away.

"Awwhhhhh.." Mas Sandy complained accompanied by a loud clashing sound to the floor. Intentions wanted to escape, I finally turned around and went into the room. I saw Mas Sandy slumped on the floor.

"Oh my God, is Sandy okay?!" I panicked and helped him get up with the rest of my energy that had not yet eaten that lunch.My body which was only as high as his shoulders was certainly very difficult to divide it. to make me take many times a deep breath to gather energy.

"Please!" Sandy muttered and instantly made my body move away.

I glanced at him at a glance, a disappointed and angry expression clearly drawn on his face.but what? what makes it like this? what did he see on his phone screen?

"Mas, let me help you in the room!" My voice trembled for fear that he would go berserk.

"GO!!!!" then shouted. I frowned in shock and confusion.Should I leave that young man? but what if Bu Ayu finds out that Mas Sandy went to her room and damaged her belongings?

"Mas, please don't do this Mas. I help you to the room yes!" take me again, this time in a soft voice. But it wasn't the answer I got, but a very horrible glare. Stare that is difficult to understand, so it makes me peg for a moment.

"Go! You're fucking!" His Maki while pushing rough my body to sit on the floor. I glared sharply at him, what attitude is that? why is he cursing and calling me a bitch? whatdoes thatmean? my mind is full of questions.

Mas Sandy bowed down in annoyance, she was like harboring anger even her face turned red instantly. Just this time I saw that angry young man in front of me without even knowing why.

"Mas Sandy? Sandy why is she here?" Bi Marni's voice startled the two of us. The middle-aged woman immediately approached and helped Mas Sandy get up. I followed the two from behind to return to his room.

"Other times, I need something to say to Bibi or to Alis. Ms. Ayu said, Mas Sandy has to rest a lot." said Bi Marni in a soothing tone, I bowed and just stood by the door. Sandy did not turn her head towards the two of us. Her eyes only focused on the window of the room and the curtains were moving monotonously in the wind.

"Mas Sandy must be healed. If this continues, old man Mas Sandy will certainly be sad there. mas Sandy does not want to make the same Master Madam sad?" Bi Marni seemed to know what could make her master calm down. Evidently after hearing the words Mas Sandy's face was no longer as stiff as earlier.

"So the Eyebrows made lunch! Sandy has to eat, and she's taking medicine. Aunty's still a lot of work, so let Eyebrow help Mas Sandy here! aunty stay a while." said.

Bi Marni patted me gently on the shoulder, as if giving me encouragement to be more patient with her.

I approached Sandy's bed with an awkward feeling. After he cursed me earlier, it made my heart a little upset. Even though I knew he didn't mean to say that. I took out a tray that contained the slices of sandwiches and fried rice that was already cold.

"The food is cold, let me change Mas!" I'm budging.

"I'm sorry" he later said.

I'm pecking again, though,

"I didn't mean to talk like that, I just-"

"Nothing mas, I understand why. I also apologize if if my attitude is not polite as well as Sandy."

"What are you cooking?" Sandy stared at the contents of the tray I was holding. Like she was reluctant to linger over the matter just now.

"Nasi fried mas. but the fried rice is cold. let me gettin again." My advice.

"Necessary. Bring it here, I'm hungry!" her door.

I let out a sigh of relief, Eventually my task will be done soon, and I can go home soon.

"It's a mas, please! sandy can eat both, or one of them, but if Sandy doesn't like-"

Sandy looked at me with a cynical look.

"Sorry, good meal!" I ended my sentence just like that, then rushed to prepare the medicines that should be drunk.

At 4pm I just returned home. I saw Andi playing marbles in front of the yard with some friends.

"Mama?" Greet her with a sumringah face while running small towards me. I hugged her body tightly, and instantly made the fatigue in my body evaporate just like that.

"Have you eaten?" I look at him lovingly.

"Udah, be with Reyhan" he said casually.

"Pinter. mama to the house first well, you want a sultry bath." Andi nodded and continued his play that looked so fun.

I went inside the house. I put my bag on a little nail behind the door. Today was really tiring, when my job was fairly easy.just wait for the sick.but somehow it feels like I really struggle. "New is also one day Eyebrow.you must survive.at least one month!" I spoke to my figure in front of the mirror.

I remember for a moment, I turned my memory when I tidied up Bu Ayu's room earlier.If I could see what was on the screen of the phone, it made Sandy so angry. but unfortunately the phone has turned into junk now.no reason what Bi Marni will tell Bu Ayu,but clearly Bi Marni said that Bu Ayu would not be able to be angry at Mas Sandy. as bad as she did.

"Yush! why am I thinking about their business" I muttered as I sauntered towards the bathroom.

Tonight I accompanied Andi to a television show after she had previously studied.We shared stories about what she experienced at school and what I did at my place of work.

"Ma, is your patient old yet? keep getting sick why?" ask Andi curious.

"Mommy's patient is young, maybe her age is under mama. she's been in an accident."

"Well, how ma? car ride? or ride daddy's rich bike?" tannya

I stared at Andi for a long time.he always associated an accident with the incident that befell his father.

"Mama doesn't know about it, then mama is busy so not to wonder!" answer lied. I don't want Andi to recall the moment we lost her.

"Oh yeah, you're still a laper? mom brought fried rice from work earlier"

"Hungry anyway, but Andi wants to eat with mama?" her door.

"okay!" My right away got up and took the fried rice.

"Wahhh, this is the most delicious fried rice that Andi has ever eaten ma," Andi stuffed the spoonful of food into his mouth very greedily. I smiled with relief. Although there are many things out there that can make me cry, but at least I still have Andi who at all times can make me smile Happy.
