Today Larissa's sale was raided by Zahra's classmates. Although it had felt sore and jovial, but all of it paid off with the amount of money from sales obtained.
Larissa's gratitude grew as the fish Hamzah catch was driven by one of the middlemen at the appropriate price even though the market began to quiet.
After from the market Larissa returned to meet her husband to arrange the sale and pick up her daughter. And they went home together.
Setiba at the house Larissa decided to take a break for a moment to release fatigue in the body. But it just makes him feel bad again all over the body. Quickly he got up again and chose to do other activities so that the bad taste was lost.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Hamzah's time to go to sea again. So too with Zahra who went to teach. Larissa is alone at home.
Hamzah was hesitant to leave Larissa that afternoon. He felt something was going to happen. But because Larissa continues to convince that she is okay, she ignored her feelings and still left too.
As the afternoon progressed, Zahra had not yet returned from teaching. While Larissa felt her body increasingly unwary, alone at home.
He got out of bed to boil water. He wants to take a warm bath to relax the body. Not to forget a cup of warm tea he also made to drink after bathing.
After taking a bath, Larissa felt her body a little better, coupled with drinking a cup of warm tea the more it made her body much better. He also continued to buy various kinds of brewed noodles to sell tomorrow morning.
Black clouds rule the afternoon sky, indicating that it will soon rain. Coupled with a gust of wind that ensures the sign. Occasionally there were sounds of lightning and lightning strikes in the sky.
Larissa speed up the speed of the motorcycle so as not to rain on the road. But the gust of wind that hit made his body that had just sipped back cheerful.
Larissa just put the groceries and threw the body on the bed. The entire body felt so painful, the whole bone was painful and the joints were like being chopped.
Larissa was surprised, usually a warm bath coupled with a cup of tea was able to overcome the usual unpleasant taste he experienced. But somehow today this method is not effective at all, but earlier he also had time to take medicine before going shopping.
A few moments later Zahra came home from teaching. Screaming to call the mother when she did not find the whereabouts of her mother. But when she saw her mother groaning in pain in the room she was crying. The mother's feet with the intention of easing her pain.
Larissa was touched by the attention given by her only daughter. He was grateful that God had given him a good and obedient daughter like Zahra. The tears that flowed down his daughter's cheeks. "Don't cry, son, mom's okay. Mom's just a little tired. Later after resting will also be healed" he said soothing.
"But mom really is okay, right?."
"No, son, mom's fine. Mending now you take a shower and after that eat, huh?."
Zahra nodded and passed her mother's orders without being told a second time.
The night is starting to come. Apparently that day the rain did not fall, but the black cloud was still faithful in the sky.
The night Larissa's condition turned out to get worse. His body temperature was very hot while his entire body shivered in the cold, his bones felt like they were being stripped from their place. Even now his legs are hard to move.
From then on when Larissa has a high fever, then she will feel her bones feel so painful, and even to stand alone is difficult. And now he's worried about getting the disease again.
Larissa cried herself in the room. In the heart call out the name of the husband to immediately come and embrace his body. He regretted why he had let her go. If she had known that her condition was like this, there was no way she would have let her husband go.
That night at twenty-one in western Indonesia, Larissa could not bear the pain she was experiencing. He wakes up his sleeping daughter next to him with the intention of telling her to ask for help at Iqbal's house. Because he is the only family whose house is close to his house that he might be able to ask for help at this time.
"Zahra, wake up, boy! let's get up for a while" he said, patting Zahra on the cheek.
Zahra awoke, but her consciousness had not yet been gathered. Moreover, he had just a few minutes ago closed his eyes. "What's up, ma'am? Whywake me? Is it morning?" ask her while yawning wide.
"Not yet, son, it's still nine o'clock.
"Why did you wake me up? I went to bed again, Mom. I'm still sleepy."
"Wait a minute, son, don't sleep. Please call sir Iqbal for a moment. Tell him that mom's sick."
"But it's night, ma'am. I'm afraid to go out alone."
"Please, son, just for a second. Yeah!."
"But I'm afraid of the dark, ma'am."
"Please, son, you can't stand the pain in your body anymore. Please call your sir, yes!" he said with tears as he could not bear the pain. But it turns out his tears made Zahra also cry.
Larissa pity, could not bear to see her daughter crying. He tried to move his body and get out of bed. But it turns out his legs are unable to support the weight of the body to make it fall down on the floor.
"Mother!" zahra screams when she sees her mother fall. He got up and approached his mother with the intention of helping her to stand up. But whatever the power, he was just a six-year-old little boy. She could support the body of the mother who was much larger than her.
"Already, son. You can't lift mom. Please just call your sir, yeah!."
"But I'm scared, ma'am!" he said with tears.
"See the condition of mom! Don't you feel sorry, son? If you could be alone, I wouldn't ask for your help." Larissa knew that her daughter was a timid child. But he was forced to do so because he had no other choice.
With tears in his eyes and fear Zahra ordered Larissa to go to his uncle's house next door to ask for help.
meanwhile Larissa dragged her body struggling to reach the main door. Although a little pushy, but he still worried that his daughter why.
