Ready to go to Banjarmasin


Rifal had been lying on his bed, the two nurses who delivered Rifal had been back in between by the driver.


''Rest, '' Aska told Rina. ''Lying next to Rifal, ''' continued Aska and replied to a nod of the head by Rina.


Rina got up from the sofa she was sitting on and walked towards Rifal's bed. She lay down beside Rifal while lovingly embracing her son.


Rina rubbed her son's hair gently, unconsciously her tears came down just like looking at his son's very handsome face.


From the chair, Aska knew that his wife was crying. Aska did not rebuke him, the pain he felt was not comparable to the pain felt by his wife.


Aska stared at Rifal's room as well as Valen's, a very neat room. At the dresser, Aska saw a lot of makeup equipment owned by Valen.


On the walls of their rooms, there were wedding photos of them that were unknown since when they installed them. Rifal and Valen were married in High School.


There's a picture of Rifal and Valen hugging so mesrah.


At Rifal's desk, Aska saw a large pile of office documents. On Rifal's desk is a picture of Valen wearing his doctor's suit and holding a stethoscope around his neck.


Huft


Heavy breathing out of Aska's mouth, how will his son live without his wife?


Aska's eyes closed, because it had been a few days he was sleep deprived because thinking of all this, he slept on a soft sofa in Rifal's room and Rina slept beside Rifal hugged him tightly.


How's Valen doing now?


Aska had fallen asleep on the sofa, as well as Rina who had been lying on the bed Rifal. He also slept, because he was tired.

Morning came, where today is the day Agrif will go to Banjarmasin. Mr. Asegaf, Daniel's lawyer, arrived at Daniel's house about thirty minutes ago.


Agrif needs items, such as clothes, games, were put in a bag yesterday afternoon.


So this morning he did not have to bother anymore to prepare his goods.


The news of the security guard who was accidentally injured by Agrif with a gun, because the gun bullet was immediately missed and grabbed the arm of the security guard.


Agrif of course not accidentally, the security guard was also present to see Agrif's departure to Banjarmasin somehow long, or even the child will not return.


I don't know, Agrif as an adult will govern himself.


“Good, yes, in Banjarmasin.” Bi Minah could not hold back her tears.


He lowered his body to align his height with Agrif who was neatly wearing his expensive T-shirt, and the trousers he was wearing.


Not to forget, he held his small bag with a very difficult gaze to explain.


Bi Minah wiped her tears and hugged Agrif. After all, she had been taking care of Agrif ever since his mother died while she was giving birth.


Daniel rarely stayed home because of his office. But Daniel always took his time for Agrif, going to the Mall, the playground and the park, his last place with Daniel.


Agrif returned Bi Minah's embrace, making Bi Minah seem to not want to release the child in her current arms.


Little Agrif will go to Banjarmasin, and will leave them all in this house.


The security guard and Art were also sad and shed tears to see Bi Minah and Agrif. However, the longest-serving workers among them were Bi Minah, and Bi Minah was also the closest to Agrif.


“Agrif!”


A familiar sound to them entered the eardrum of the person in the living room.


Lea ran and hugged Agrif tightly, she was still wearing a nurse's shirt, this morning she was willing to be late to the hospital just to see Agrif leave.


“Sorry big sister, yes,” shrewd Lea still hugging Agrif.


While Bi Minah had already stood up and let Lea embrace Agrif.


“Agrif doesn't hate big brother, right?” lea asked because Agrif did not return his wounds.


“Although brother failed so mama connect according to your request, but sister did not fail, right, so sister for you?” lirih Lea was still with tears dripping down her flat.


Agrif shook his head and returned Lea's embrace.


“Beautiful sister!”


Lea was sobbing, this was the first time Agrif called her beautiful sister since the incident.


Honestly speaking, Lea missed the call coming out of Agrif's tiny mouth. In the moments of farewell the boy called him beautiful sister.


Leah knew that if this child did not want to talk to her, because Leah was so busy with her studies that she rarely met Agrif.


“Mafin sister beautiful, yes,” muttered Lea and avenged head nod by Agrif.


“Beautiful sister, Agrif will go. And will not meet the beautiful sister again,” sad the child.


His gaze had now turned to pity. Leah tucked Agrif's hair in her ear and said. “You'll be back, kok,” Laughter Lea. “If you want,” he continued making Agrif directly hug Lea tightly.


She shouldn't be angry with her beautiful sister, because Lea's time wasn't just for her.


“Kata om, Banjarmasin to Jakarta far,” auh the boy and reciprocated a nod of the head by Lea.


“Emang far away, but if you take a plane close, kok,” replied Lea smiled towards Agrif.


“We in Jakarta will be waiting for you to come here, even though it is still a longaaaaaaaa!”


Agrif.


“Agrif,” call Mr. Asegaf.


“Ayok, the plane is leaving soon,” Asegaf spoke with a word that Agrif will understand.


They all drove Agrif out of the gate, they couldn't get Agrif to the airport.


As he exited the door, Agrif saw the man he had met in the garden holding a small child.


“Om, Turunin, Dyta,” said Dyta so Frezan took down Dyta with the basketball he was carrying.


The boy walked towards Agrif whose hand was held by Mr. Asegaf.


“Last gift from Dyta, before kak Agrif left.” Dyta gave him the basketball he had played with Agrif at school.


In basketball it was written the name Dyta and also the name Agrif. “Makasi, Ta,” said Agrif took the basketball given by Dyta.


“Sama-sama, do not forget Dyta, yes, if you are far away.”


Agrif just snuggles.


“Good there,” Frezan come rubbing Agrif's hair.


Frezan and Asegaf shook hands, of course Asegaf knew who this person was.


“Please take care of Agrif, until the destination, do not let him why-napa.”


“Good sir.”
