the day changed, Maira had done her first chemo yesterday. This was all he did by force, because he did not want to but because his brother kept begging he could not refuse.

" Mai, how is it better ?" ask Zahra

" it still feels tired Ra, nausea is also still but it's better " replied Maira

" the spirit yes Mai, you can definitely recover" said Zahra encouragingly

" yes Ra, hopefully so " replied Maira

" oh yes Ra, brother not here ? " ask Maira

" no, maybe tomorrow we'll come. You have already told me that today there is an important meeting with clients from outside ", replied Zahra

Yes, indeed today Azka there is an important meeting with clients from outside. So now Nisa who replaced him accompanied mom in the hospital.

Today Fardhan is still meeting with several investors, including Kirana. Fardhan was still focused on the meeting this time, but not Kirana. He kept staring and watching Fardhan even though it was not ignored by Fardhan at all.

After the meeting, Fardhan returned to his room followed by Shandy behind him. Without Fardhan and Shandy noticing, Kirana followed her second step and entered Fardhan's study.

" Shan, I'm asking for the contract documents of our cooperation with company xx. I wait before lunchtime" said Fardhan then looked at the woman who was following him

" you ! what's coming here ? isn't our meeting over ?" fardhan ketus

" oh come on Dhan, I'm here to take you to lunch later ! I'll just wait here ! " kirana said shamelessly

" sorry lady, you better not interrupt ! please miss waiting in the waiting room if you want "sambar Shandy

" not want to ! I want to be here ! " kekew Kirana

" Kirana, please understand ! this is an office, not a home. I'm asking you to come out right now " said Fardhan not to be trite anymore

" but Dhan, I don't want to wait outside his "whimper

" please miss " said Shandy as he extended his hand giving way to Kirana

" don't want to " said Kirana half-shouting

" Kirana "surried Fardhan

" i'll report to your mom that I was kicked out of your office "threatened Kirana

" just please ! Shandy, you know your duty" said Fardhan sternly

Shandy then drags Kirana out of Fardhan's room. Shandy knows, right now Fardhan's brain is still messed up. He needs calmness, because in addition to the burden of his household he also has to think about the problems of his work that much. Fardhan also became frequent urgency since Maira left the house, coupled with his man who could not get information as well.

Kirana who was treated like that did not stay silent, she called her mother Fardhan to complain about what was done to her. Mama Pu directly contacted Fardhan to reprimand him.

(assume the sound of the call on his phone Fardhan ya😁)

📞 "yes hello ma "says Fardhan when m3pick up a phone connection from his mother

📞 "Dhan, why did you throw Kirana out of your room ?" ask mama

📞 "ma, Fardhan is working ma ! Fardhan won't be bothered, Fardhan's mind will be disturbed if Kirana is in Fardhan's room ! Mama also knows how the nature of Kirana, Fardhan hope you understand ma "clear Fardhan

📞 "sorry ma, Fardhan more work. Later Fardhan called again, assalamualaikum" said Fardhan then closed his phone connection

Today Fardhan's job is very much, coupled with several employment contracts that he just got a few days ago.

While Azka had just finished a meeting with a client from outside, he immediately entered his room to complete some documents. When she finished, Azka returned home to clean up and went to the hospital. Actually he misses his daughter very much, he misses to accompany his daughter to play longer as usual if he comes home from work. But he had to rethink the mother who had to be accompanied in the hospital. He promised Silmi that if his grandmother was healed he would take the whole family on vacation.

" how's mommy doing ?" ask Azka

" the condition is still the same mas, there has been no change "answer Nisa

Just now Nisa closed her mouth after answering Azka's question, a nurse who entered to replace the mammoth infusion fluid in a hurry and returned with a doctor.

" sorry, what's up ?" tanya Azka began to be overwhelmed with anxiety

" sorry sir, critical patient "answered the nurse and closed the door immediately

" how about mas ?" ask Nisa

" mama is critical "Azka replied lethargicly

" o Allah, may your mother be given strength and be healed soon, Rabb "do'a Nisa

Azka continued to walk back and forth in front of the room waiting for the doctor or nurse to come out to tell him. Nearly half an hour later the doctor came out with a lethargic face.

" how dok "tanya Azka

" sorry sir, we've tried our best but your mother can no longer hold on. God loves him more, sorry "the doctor replied with a rough sigh

" no way doc, you don't joke doc ! I can sue you " said Azka inflamed then held onto the sneli collar worn by the doctor

" sorry sir, I just as a doctor can't do much. God is more willing and more entitled "the word doctor makes Azka fall in peace

" innalillahi wainna ilaihi raaji'un "lirih Nisa with tears

Nisa approached her husband and hugged him. The two men clenched each other, pouring out the sense of loss that he now felt. The two cried sobbing still unable to accept the departure of mama. Slowly Azka stood up and held Nisa. Yes, Nisa seemed just as devastated as Azka because the relationship between mama and Nisa was like a mother and a biological child. Mama never differentiates affection for children or daughters-in-law.

slowly the two enter the room which is now a silent witness to the struggle of a tough woman to live. The body is rigidly stretched over the bed with a white cloth covering the entire body. Now there is no more pain, gone are all the burdens suffered. There is only a stiff body that will soon be ready to be planted in the soil, the last house that will be occupied.
