THERE'S ALWAYS A LEANING PLACE
Worship for Meli

Two hours doctor Haris can rest physically. During his family's stay, the man fell asleep. He wakes up when the phone calls him.

....

“Kok can?”

....

“Good, I'm there.”

With a hasty step, Dr. Haris headed for the ICU room. He just got a report that Eyang Probo again lost consciousness and his condition is also worse than when he left.

While Via and his family returned when it was felt enough to give doctors Haris time to rest.

“Dad is not in the room. What's in the ICU room, huh?” said Farhan found the room locked and when peeped it turns out there was no one inside.

“Let Azka get there. If called, it will likely not be lifted,” said Azka.

Without waiting for another comment, Azka stepped foot into the ICU room. Not for half an hour, Azka came back again.

“Where, Ka? Dad's in the ICU?” ask Ms. Aisyah.

“Iya. Azka just met the nurse. The nurse said, I was waiting for Eyang Probo whose condition dropped back,” replied Azka.

Their faces were tense again. Bad thoughts are raging.

“Let's go to the musala to pray all the waiting for Zuhr. Meli can wait in the park near musala,” said Bu Aisyah.

They nodded in agreement. They walked towards the musala. Via walking side by side with Meli.

“Against the obstacle, Mel?” whisky Via.

:Yes,” Meli replied.

“Means last night not yet, dong!” said Via while smacking a smile.

“You mean?” Meli looked at Via not understanding.

“You have not enjoyed a pleasant worship,” replied Via.

For a moment Meli thought. He smiled embarrassedly after understanding what Via meant.

“Means you must date first,” continued Via followed by a soft laugh.

Until the front of the musala, Meli continued her steps towards the park. Others go to purify themselves.

When sitting on a park bench, Meli feels bad. He felt someone was watching him. He repeatedly gave a glance, but he did not meet any suspicious person.

To eliminate his anxiety, Meli took a smart flat object of hers. He opens the chatt box with Anjani. Some chatt from Anjani has not yet been opened.

[Mel, you're right. Mas Rangga apparently likes me. He shot me.]

Meli was wide open to read Anjani's first message. He felt a sense of constriction.

“How dare he shoot Anjani. Huh!” melli grunts in the heart.

[Luckily he could be heartened when I said I couldn't accept. He asked me to stay friends.]

Meli breathed a sigh of relief. He's no longer angry.

{Unfortunately, when I said I was willing to stay friends, Mario came. He misunderstood and hit Mas Rangga.]

“Astaghfirullahalazim, Brother Mario can khilaf as well,” muttered Meli ogled.

[How is Mas Azka's condition? The wawat? You never get to read my message.]

Meli smiled thinly. He immediately typed a message.

[Yes, I'm sorry I just read your message. Yesterday afternoon Eyang Probo had improved, today drop again]

Anjani turned out to be off until he did not read Meli's message.  Meli looks a little bit of a tea.

Meli looking for her father's contact. He touched the dial button as soon as it was found.

“Assalamualaikum, Father's beautiful son,” greet Mr. Roni.

“Waalaikumsalam, Dad. Is mom there?”

“Neg. Your mother's at home. How is the condition of the Eyang Probo? Getting better?”

“Today has gotten worse, Dad. In fact, yesterday afternoon there was an encouraging development,” said Meli sadly.

“Many prayers for his recovery. Your mother and father also prayed for him. Oh yeah, when are you coming home? Isn't college tomorrow?”

“Iya, Dad. God willing, tonight. Tomorrow I can pick up Meli, can't I?” tanya Meli spoiled.

“God's Insya. What time?”

“Jam 3-nan's. Only use the train.”

After talking about Meli's return, the girl hung up. He saw the message Anjani had read. Meli's best friend was typing a message.

[I'm concerned. May the Eyang Probo be cured soon. When are you coming home?]

Meli immediately typed a reply message for Anjani.

[Kok know?]

After sending the message, Anjani looked straight off. Meli of course was upset.

The girl got up from her seat when she saw Via and Bu Aisyah coming out. From the other door, two handsome-faced brothers stepped in together leaving the musala. Meli is approaching soon.

We're back in ICU?” ask Meli.

“Iya. Who knows we can already look,” replied Azka.

They arrive along with Dr. Haris out of the room.

“You are from musala?”ask Dr. Haris is friendly.

“Betul, Dad. What is the condition of Eyang Probo?”Azka looks impatient.

“Alhamdulillan stable. You guys wanna take a look?  Please alternate.  Dad pray first.” Mr. Haris passed.

They took turns to look at the Eyang Probo. Via and Meli together entered after the others looked in turn.

“Assalamaicum, Eyang. This is Via and Meli coming,” said Via.

“Come, Eyang. Meli wants to know Eyang.Eyang soon healed, yes. If Eyang recovers, Meli will go to Jogja again to meet Eyang. We can tell a lot of things,” Meli said without pause.

The lips of the Eyang Probo were slightly interested. It was like there was a faint smile on the lips of Eyang Probo.

They both invited Eyang Probo to talk. Of course the Eyang Probo was just silent. After ten minutes, they came out. Apparently, Dr. Haris is back.

“How about this afternoon we eat at the front cafe only?” Farhan.

All agree. They walked to the cafe across from the hospital.

“Daddy, there are roughly peculiarities not with Eyang?” farhan asked as they waited for the ordered menu.

“You mean?” doctor Haris turned the question around.

“Kok suddenly Eyang became undisciplined? Hasn't you been disciplined in maintaining health?” Farhan explained his point.

“Perhaps age factor. Because of old age, Eyang Probo back like a child,” explained Dr. Haris.

Farhan. It seems like something is stirring up his mind.

“Meli when to return to Jember? Em, I'm not angry, but you have to go to college.” Farhan's a little unwell.

“Iya, mass. Meli understands, really. Later tonight use the train. Mas Azka has booked a ticket, kok,” Meli replied.

Azka nodded, confirming Meli's words.

“If you have time, go to Jogja often! You tell me, let someone pick me up when you get here,” said Via.

Meli smiled and nodded in agreement.

“Dek Azka and Meli, you focus on completing your lecture. Especially Deck Azka. Your master is in sight. You cannot fail. Everyone will be disappointed. So, you don't have to go home again as long as your thesis isn't finished. Whatever happens, let us finish,” said Farhan firmly.

“Iya, Mas. Tomorrow Azka returns to Medan. God willing 2-3 weeks. Pray,” says Azka.

“Of course we always pray for you guys,” said Bu Aisyah softly.

They enjoyed the new dish quietly. After lunch, they returned to the hospital.

During the afternoon until that afternoon, the condition of the Eyang Probo was stable. Everyone can breathe freely. In fact, when Meli bounces home, Eyang Probo can respond with a thin smile on the lips.

“You must be careful, take good care of yourself. Forgive me for not being able to take care of you,” Azka whispered as they were on their way to the station.

“Mas Azka said what, anyway? We have agreed LDR, mutual trust. Meli understands, kok,” said Meli sage.

“Duh, my wife is very understanding. But, this one you can't refuse. Wear this for your needs! I'm your husband, I have to meet your needs. At least, let me give you a living born.”

Azka took the thin box object from the wallet. He thrust it into Meli.

“Save, use for your needs! I don't accept rejection. her PIN is our wedding date,” Azka said firmly.

Meli receives a card from Azka. He kept it in his wallet. I don't know why haru suddenly burst. Meli's eyes were bathed by tears.

"Finish your college! Me either. We both fought, yes!" said Azka when he released Meli's departure.

Meli could only nod. His chest was filled with an indescribable sense.

"Greetings to mom's dad. Please also apologize to me for not being a good husband to his daughter."

Meli just nodded. He doesn't want to separate. However, circumstances have not allowed them to unite.

Azka wrapped her hands around Meli's shoulders. He held Meli's body into his arms. Meli also resigned, enjoying the gentle strokes of the husband.
