Want me to Be With You

Want me to Be With You
Episode 14


In the morning, Fauziah prepares for the Puskesmas. He went down to the first floor, there was already his Aunt and Mother. While his uncle was out in the garden cutting an old banana.


"Auntie, where's Aska?" asked Fauziah looking for his cousin's sister who slept early last night.


"There is in the room, again sleeping" replied the Aunt.


Fauziah exhaled. "Yes, this is for Aska. I wanted to give her last night but her Aska's asleep"


Drtc ... Drtc ... Drtc ... The phone rang from inside Fauziah's bag. The beautiful girl reached into her bag and took her cell phone. Instantly he published a happy smile. Aqmal, yes Aqmal. That cool widower called him.


"Assalamualaikum, Ma"


There was no reply or greeting from the interlocutor. Aqmal, the man fell silent. Mas, the new call that Fauziah pinned on him.


In front of the house, Aqmal smiled happily. He was like an ABG man who fell back in love at first sight.


"Mass?" inner Aqmal.


"Wait a minute ..." Fauziah suddenly came out of the house. Take his shoes on the shoe rack and put them on. When he finished, he approached Aqmal in the car. "Mas, come on"


"Huh?"


One rough sigh sounded. Fauziah is upset to see Aqmal's unusual attitude. "Yes, I'll call you brother. Our age is far away"


"Well, that's it" Aqmal protested.


Fauziah ignored the backlash from her future husband. Honestly, he wanted to get angry because Aqmal had not started the car engine yet. While the distance from the house to the Puskesmas is quite far.


"Sister, are we going to continue here?" asked Fauziah trying to get hold of him. He can't be angry, why? Because the car is not his. He just hitchhiked.


Fauziah. He sat down leisurely but repeatedly he spoke Istighfar inwardly. It seems like he doesn't need to call her, Mas. Enough Brother.


On the way, Aqmal's phone rang. Aqmal looked at the screen of her phone, Lis's name was there. Aqmal hesitated to answer.


"Why not get caught?" ask Fauziah.


"Can I?" Aqmal asked back.


"Please" Fauziah. Aqmal also answered a phone call from his ex-wife. The crying of someone across the phone made Aqmal brake the car suddenly. Making Fauziah surprised not play. It's not the first time I'm going to do something like this. The man really did bring death.


"You wait there, I'm going there now .." said Aqmal who looked anxious. The man decides to call– by the rearview mirror and then pulls the car over on the side of the road.


"Zah, sorry. I have to go to Lis's contract. Fitra was crying, I had to go there" Aqmal said, then got out of the car.


"Sister, let me just ride the motorcycle" said Fauziah who also got off the car.


"You sure?" ask Aqmal seriously.


Fauziah. Aqmal got into the car, driving it at high speed. After Aqmal's departure, Fauziah stopped two-wheelers.


"Pa, Puskesmas Labuha, yes" he explained to the motorcycle taxi driver. On the way, Fauziah kept silent. His mind wandered a few minutes ago. Where Aqmal was so anxious to hear the tiny cry of baby Fitra.


"O Allah, does this include a test from you?" inner Fauziah.


Two-wheeled vehicles pull over in front of Labuha Puskesmas. Fauziah came down and did not forget to pay the taxi bill. Not far from where it stands, there is a Savana that has also just arrived. A few minutes later, the four-wheeled vehicle stopped in the parking lot. Fauziah and Savana turned to see Doctor Aqmal there with a woman and a baby boy.


"That must be Kak Aqmal's son" murmured Fauziah.
