When Love Should Determine
Chapter 96

In the midst of the mood, suddenly Fauzan came. "How's bi Ani doing, ma'am?" he asked.

Fauzan had heard Larissa talk with her mother at home. That's why he's coming there soon.

"It looks like your aunt is going through death" replied Budhe. "Fauzan, can I ask you a favor?."

"Say, mom!."

"Please look for Iqbal's whereabouts now. Your aunt kept calling him. Maybe he wants to see her one last time."

"Okay, ma'am, I'll look for him. But where is he usually at these hours?."

"So, I don't know either. Just try to find him in the stalls where he used to hang out."

"Okay, ma'am, I'm leaving now." Fauzan drove his bike back to look for Iqbal.

Long wait finally Fauzan came back. But it turns out he only came alone. "I'm sorry, ma'am. I did not manage to find Iqbal's whereabouts" he said with a breath of frenzy.

Budhe let out a listless sigh. "Yes, not pa pa pa. Kamzu tried at least. Now you just rest." Fauzan nodded, then went up and sat down outside.

Bu Ani's breathing is getting disjointed. Eyes whiten with eyes up. But what is sought does not also show the nose.

Larissa is getting worse. There was nothing she could do but continue to lead her mother to speak the lafadz of God. Inwardly pray that the mother dies in a state of solemn khotimah.

Time keeps rolling, but Iqbal hasn't come yet. Suddenly Rossa, Iqbal's wife came in a hurry while holding a baby girl. "Sorry, just got here. I just finished my sister's studies."

Budhe greeted Rossa with a spray, "Where is your husband? sought after since then does not exist. Look at your mother-in-law! The condition is already very bad."

Getting such a spurt of course Rossa is evil. "Sister Iqbal was looking at the net with his friend in the next village.

"Wait a minute, quickly call your husband here! Poor mother keeps calling."

Rossa immediately picked up her husband in the opposite village. He deliberately left the child in his carry on Fauzan to accelerate the movement. Not long after, she returned with her husband. "How's mom doing?" he asked.

All eyes looked at him. "Iqbal, you've been searched for so hard. Look at your mother's condition!, from earlier on keep calling you," said budhe.

Iqbal ignored budhe's scolding and rushed to his mother. Larissa knew herself, she retreated and made room for Iqbal to speak. Iqbal sat next to his mother as soon as his sister stepped down. "What's mom looking for me?, she asked. Hands rubbing the mother's head.

Hearing Iqbal bu Ani's voice began to react. His hands moved as if he wanted to touch the head of his only son. "Are you iqbal, my son?."

Realizing that Iqbal grabbed his hand and put it on his cheek. "Yes, ma'am, it's me, Iqbal!," he said. "Does mom want anything?."

Ani's breathing calmed down once she knew her son had come. His lips were shaking as if he wanted to say something. But because his voice is so raucous that it is not so clear and only sounds like a mutter.

"What did you say? I couldn't hear my mother's voice" Iqbal asked.

Bu Ani kept trying to talk, eyes fixed on the water bottle beside her as if hinting that she wanted to drink.

Bu Ani nodded slowly. Iqbal grabbed his mother's bottle and opened the lid. Then he drank the water with the help of a straw.

Bu Ani sucked the drinking water quickly until the contents in the bottle stayed half. Ms. Ani looked so thirsty as if she had just done something so exhausting.

Iqbal put back the bottle of water as soon as the mother removed the straw she used to drink earlier. He put his mother's head back on. "Mother, try to imitate my words. Speak God."

While on the road, Rossa had told her husband about the situation. Until now Iqbal immediately understood what money should he do.

Miraculously, Miss Ani was able to pronounce the lafadz of God even though it was not so clear. Something that Larissa has been trying to do since then but has not produced results. But now Iqbal even easily make the mother pronounce the lafadz.

Larissa's heart was sliced with pain. Even at times like this his mother still does not consider his existence. But he was a little grateful that finally the mother could pronounce Lafadz Allah even though not with his help.

Ani's breath returned to hunt. Everyone there was panicking. And with the last three breaths, his body fell limp with his eyes closed tightly.

Iqbal shook his mother's body when he saw no more movement from her. But all in vain, the mother's body remained motionless in the slightest.

Iqbal did not give up, he grabbed the mother's wrist and looked for her pulse. But the result was futile as well, he could not find the throbbing.

Iqbal lowered his head. A tear fell on the cheek. My beloved mother has now passed away. "Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi roojiuun" he said.

Hearing Iqbal's words understand everyone there, that Ani's mother has now died. They also spoke the same words as him.

"Innalillahi wainna ilaihi roojiuun."

Larissa's cry broke out instantly, unable to believe what had happened. His body collapsed to the ground even though he had tried to sow his heart from now on that this would happen. But when all that happened before his eyes in fact he could not accept it.

That night, Ani again faced the owner of life beside her beloved son. Apparently he had not left before seeing his son's face for the last time. And as soon as he saw his coming, he left with a peaceful face.

"What time is it?" asked Iqbal after shedding tears."

"Snake nine nights" replied one of the.

"Let's take care of mom's funeral now it's still nine ."

"Is not the night after the completion?" said another family. Not agreeing with Iqbal's wishes if Ani's mom is buried tonight.

"If we move fast I think the time is enough! It's my pity that we don't take care of the body immediately. There is no family waiting for you, right?."

Everyone agrees with Iqbal. Moreover, religion does teach to accelerate the funeral of someone who has died.

Everyone moves fast. Some went to the mosque to report the death of Ms. Ani, some went to the cemetery to prepare the grave, some also took the corpse bathing equipment in the village multipurpose office.

Meanwhile Iqbal decided to clean the mother's body first before being bathed. Larissa is preparing the room to immerse the body of the mother
