You Are My Sunshine
The Part 32
"Mas," he called her soft.
"Rest, I'm here" said the Hero, bowed.
It feels like he is angry to express all his disappointment, his heart injury is still gaping, but seeing the condition of Almira who is now lying weak and having an accident while chasing him, he said, making the wound more painful like sprinkled with salt. Angry, sad, guilt, fear of loss, that is what is now dancing with heart-wrenching rhythms in its heart.
"I'm very sleepy, but before I go to bed I want Mas to kiss me as usual, just like Mas does to me every night" he asked, commenting on a faint smile.
The hero drew his face closer, landed his lips on Almira's forehead for a very long time, as he used to do, just that his kiss this time was full of love and love that had been denied.
"Sleep," Wira said as she gently stroked her head. Almira nodded and closed her eyes with a smile on her lips.
The clock continues to move, the night is getting late, the hero is still awake, drowsiness never stops him at all. His eyes glanced at the monitor of medical equipment connected to Almira's body, checked for vital signs and everything was still under control.
She saw Almira was asleep, then she remembered not to tell her family that his wife had an accident. Wira takes her cell phone to contact her father, she steps out of the room so that her conversation does not disturb Almira's sleep.
Wira contacts her father and explains the condition of Almira, Haris who is outside the city is very surprised by the sudden disaster, and decides to return later that night to see the state of his daughter-in-law.
The hero is back in. However, Almira's heart rate control monitor suddenly buzzed and showed a straight line. The man jumped up and tried to shake Almira's body to wake up and push the emergency button like a madman while continuing to pat his wife's cheek.
As a doctor, Wira did not not not understand what was happening now, Almira was gone, but she still did not want to believe all that and rejected her common sense.
The doctors and his team ran scattering into the room, all their actions and efforts to do as much as possible, until finally everything fell silent and pulled all the life support tools from the body of Almira.
"He's gone, be strong." One of the doctors rubbed Wira's back while sighing heavily.
Dara, who had been unable to sleep, decided to look for a moment into the ICU, but was shocked by the nurses and doctors running around in the silence of the hospital night. Until he arrived in front of the door of the room Almira open coincided with the doctor who covered the white cloth all over the body of Almira.
Dara stepped in like a daze, and in the next second she cried hysterically knowing her beloved sister had left her for all eternity. He even called out the name of Almira in a roaring cry, until Dara finally unconscious because he was unable to bear the burden that hit his soul.

Almira is buried right next to her late father's navel, Haris and Aryasatya's extended family and Dara's best friend attend. Sadness covers them all, except Ratih who only flat expression during the funeral.
Haris looked at Wira anxiously looking at him who did not issue a single broken word ranging from the hospital until the funeral was over. Given how Wira loved his wife with all his soul he understood very well what his son's heart was like today.
"Wira, temporarily go home to the main house," pinta Haris.
"Thank you Dad, but right now I just want to be alone." Wira commented a bitter smile.
"Well, I understand, be strong and be strong." Haris hugged her son.
*****
Wira and Dara arrived at the house when the sky was dark, both of them had no sound, and went straight into their rooms each locked themselves there.
The tall strapping body slid to the floor behind the door with both legs bent, his hands folded against his knees and drowned his face there. Wira cried in the quiet and dark of the room, spilling all the pain in her heart that was bleeding wounded and gaping.
