A Hope Above the Wait

A Hope Above the Wait
Dispart



The day turns, the time shows at 05.50 am. The sun is still seen hiding behind the clouds, the morning dew is still seen settling on the leaves near Jasmine's house. At that time, Jasmine was awakened by one of her aides to brush her teeth and go to breakfast because her master's people could not accompany breakfast later in the afternoon.


"Non, wake up Non. Both Father and Mother are waiting for breakfast," said the maid while slightly shaking Jasmine's body.


"Aunty, why did I wake up so early in the morning?


If you and I both want breakfast first, let me have breakfast first!" jasmine replied lazily then she pulled out her blanket and covered her entire body with it. Not long after the faintest voice of Jasmine's father said goodbye to Jasmine as well as her mother. Hearing that, Jasmine opened her blanket and brushed her teeth and walked out of her room for breakfast. But all too late, Jasmine's parents had already left her. Jasmine looked very sad.


"Auntie would have said the same Non earlier, if the same Father Mother can not accompany Non eat if Non does not come out now!" said Jasmine's maid.


"Yes, it is" replied Jasmine.


Hearing that, Jasmine asked her maid to call someone.


"Auntie, please ask for help" said Jasmine.


"Yes, non."


"Auntie can call Jasmine's friend, whose name is Ria anyways on Sundays maybe my friend is still at home. I want to invite them to eat with me," said Jasmine well but when the new maid holding the phone turned out Ria had called first. He wanted to tell Jasmine something very important.


"Non, there's Non Ria phone Non. He wanted to say something important, he said!" the maid said, and Jasmine went to the maid and received the call.


"What's Ria?" ask Jasmine.


"Jasmine I have bad news for you, it's about Ijaz," Ria replied hurriedly.


"What's wrong with Ijaz?" jasmine replied, still relaxed.


"I know why yesterday the Ijaz changed so drastically Jasmine?" answer Ria.


"Why Ria?" hearing Ria Jasmine's words changed attitude he looked serious and began to put a curious feeling with what happened actually with Ijaz.


"Ijaz will go to Pakistan and he will stay there forever" Ria replied.


Hearing that answer Jasmine looked very surprised, she could only silently grimace at Ria's explanation about the departure of Ijaz to Pakistan. When Ria finished telling her what happened to Ijaz, Jasmine asked one of her drivers to drive her to the house of Ijaz. When Jasmine reached the house of Ijaz, Jasmine got down from the car and entered the house. At that time Ijaz and his family were having breakfast in the dining room. They were shocked upon seeing Jasmine's arrival with running and breathless gasping, irregular up and down.


"Ijaz, "call Jasmine as Ijaz sits down to enjoy his breakfast.


Seeing Jasmine's arrival, Ijaz got down from his chair and approached Jasmine. When Ijaz was in front of Jasmine arrived Jasmine's eyes were glazed with glass. And Jasmine shed her tears. Jasmine sadly hugged Ijaz and said sad things to Ijaz.


"Why? Why didn't you tell me you were going to Pakistan? Am I not your friend?" jasmine said sadly then she let go of her embrace.


"I can't tell you Jasmine, I don't want you to be sad, " replied Ijaz in a low tone and lowered his head.


"But I'd be happier if I heard this news from your mouth instead of someone else's," Jasmine replied with tears streaming down.


Seeing this, Ijaz approached Jasmine and tried to calm Jasmine down.


"Son Jasmine, don't be sad. Ijaz won't stay in Pakistan forever, he will definitely return. Back with the new Ijaz, you don't have to be sad about all this!" said Ijaz Mother in a low tone while holding both arms of Jasmine.


"Son Jasmine, Ijaz went to Pakistan to get better. So that he doesn't get naughty, naughty and keeps being naughty!" Ijaz's mother answered well and she took Jasmine to breakfast together for the first and last time before Ijaz went to Pakistan.


A few minutes later, breakfast was over. Ijaz's parents began to put one by one the suitcases that would be under by Ijaz and his family. Seeing that Ijaz only looks sad leaving Jasmine, so does Jasmine he looks also sad to lose Ijaz. When all the suitcases were put in the car, Ijaz was seen approaching Jasmine and standing in front of Jasmine.


"Jasmine, I say yes. But I promise you, I'll come back and meet you when I grow up!" Ijaz said well then he lowered his head and continued "sama, I ask for your help. Please, you take care of the book I gave you. I ask you to write down all your hopes in the book until it becomes a file that I will take after I grow up!."


Hearing Ijaz's words, Jasmine simply answered a nod of her head with a sad look.


"Ijaz, come on, son," call Ijaz's mother in the car.


"Mother has called me, I say yes" said Ijaz sadly.


"You promised to come back to me," Jasmine replied with tears that kept flowing down her cheeks.


"Yes" answered Ijaz, nodding his head and smiling at his lips.


Ijaz leaves Jasmine and heads to her car. When he was in the car Ijaz was seen looking at Jasmine. Jasmine who saw that could only cry, then slowly and eyes filled with tears Jasmine raised her right hand. He then waved his hand sadly and broke into tears. Seeing this, Ijaz replied with a wave of his hand.


"Goodbye" said Ijaz softly and waved his hand at Jasmine.


Not long ago the car glass in Ijaz slowly rose to close the car window. A few minutes later, the entire car window was closed. The car came to life and it drove slowly away from Jasmine. Seeing that Jasmine was trying to chase the car but one of the servants who were nearby prevented Jasmine from chasing the car so that something would not happen later.


Jasmine could not do anything, she just cried and cried to see the car Ijaz slowly away from herself and the house in Ijaz.


"Non Jasmine, don't cry anymore. Den Ijaz went to Pakistan for only a few years and it won't be long. This is also for the good of Den Ijaz so that Den Ijaz is allowed to be friends with Non again," said the maid by sitting on the ground beside Jasmine while holding both arms of Jasmine.


Hearing this, Jasmine began to stop crying, and wiped her tears and smiled as she looked at the maid.


"Well, this is beautiful!" tempt the maid to Jasmine. "Oh yes, Sunday. Emmm, what if Non I invite you to clean the room Den Ijaz?"


"But.. If I leave this place, I can't see Ijaz going to Pakistan!."


"Non, Den Ijaz will be gone in 30 minutes. So Non do not worry if you miss the Den Ijaz plane," replied the maid.


Hearing the words from the maid, Jasmine seemed to have thought for a while and she was also silent for a while. After that Jasmine was willing to help the maid clean the room Ijaz. 30 minutes later, dimly heard the sound of an airplane will soon pass over the house Ijaz. Jasmine who heard that directly rushed out of the house and looked up at the sky. Not long after the plane flew across the upper area of the Ijaz house, seeing that Jasmine only looked at the plane while waving her hand towards the plane.


Seeing that the plane had passed through her, Jasmine again put her hand down and in a soft and loving tone she said "I will always wait for you Ijaz!."


In the plane, Ijaz was seen sitting next to his mother with eyes looking at the house on earth that looked like a swarm of ants but did not move. He looked sad and continued to look at the house as if it was hard to leave Jasmine alone.


"Jasmine, I'll be back!" Ijaz said in his heart, and his mother's hand held Ijaz's shoulder. He then invited Ijaz to cuddle with himself.


"Father and Mother do this for your sake Dear," said Ijaz as she embraced Ijaz very tightly.


"Yes Ma, no papa. Ijaz did not matter" replied Ijaz, then he let go of his mother's embrace slowly and then smiled at her.
