A Match For Brother

Grief

Alena stared at her brother's figure sitting limply leaning against the hospital wall, his appearance in a mess with a shirt that still left bloodstains after evacuating Vania from the scene of the fire last night. The woman came to him immediately.

"The clean-up thing first, ..." he put a bag on an empty chair greeted Arya.

The man looked up.

"The baby was eating, kept on taking a short break" he continued, and he showed me a tote bag with a box of food.

"Don't you?"

"Vania is very sad, .. and of course angry. He's disappointed...

"Don't worry, he'll be fine. He's just in shock."

"But...

"Vania will recover quickly, I know she's strong. Sad for a while is natural, losing a baby that has been waiting for a long time certainly makes anyone sad, but I'm sure it won't be long." Alena with her consolation.

"Hopefully so...

"Come, .. clean up first, let's get a little good."

"Hmm. alright." the man got up, yet he was stunned for a moment when he realized something.

"Where are the kids?" Arya asked.

"I left it at Alya's house with Anna's sister."

"Hardi?"

"Again to the same police station Kang Rendra also Kak Rasya."

"Police office?"

"Yes, to make a report, while waiting for Aunt Melly to recover to be questioned."

Arya remained silent.

"According to employees there is an indication of sabotage, because there is no definite cause because after closing the cafe area is certainly safe. All power tools were unplugged except for the chiller and refrigerator, some of the gas canisters that exploded were also safe and new. Yeah, ... All the possibilities are there anyway, just they think there's a gaffe."

The man looked at the sister's face with a soft look.

"If there is a possibility? what cause? why would anyone do something like that?"

"Not knowing, so make a report first so there is an investigation. Because this is not a private residence that can be caused by the negligence of its residents. It's a place of business and it's in public domain. Anything could be the cause."

"Udah, don't think about it first, .. you have to take care of yourself first. The others let Brother Hardi take care of the others."

"You are troubled, ...

"No."

"You're busy taking care of your brother. You even left your children with Alya to come here. It doesn't have to."

"Don't tell me that, the name of the family must have done something if something happened to his family members. Just like a brother who would definitely act if something happened to me or the others."

Arya remained silent.

"Now my brother is focused on Vania and Aunt Melly, the others let us take care of."

"But Al, ...

"Udah, they need a brother more than any other problem."

"Is there a possibility on purpose?" Hardi stood by the bed where Melly was sitting half-lying, when the middle-aged woman was calm and could be questioned the next day.

"Cctv in the opposite hotel is still being investigated, because the cctv in the cafe is clearly not available. Everything was destroyed when the fire broke out." he continued.

"Can't we access it manually? isn't the cctv connected to the internet?" Rasya open the sound.

"Can the police do it?" Rendra.

"Maybe it can't. But we will try." Rasya replied.

"Can't you?" Alena interrupted.

"Is this perhaps Rahma's doing?" Melly interrupted the conversation.

"Mother... suspect aunt Rahma?" Arya reacts.

"Please, after the fight last night maybe he was angry, let alone Vania attacking Rian directly."

"Vania?" arya's body stiffened a little.

"Yes, they almost got into a fight after Vania showed up when Rahma kept urging mom to sell the cafe." Melly.

"Sell cafes?" several people who were inside the room reacted simultaneously.

"Some times there are businessmen coming, who bid the cafe at a high price, but I did not respond. I just feel that if it is sold, our livelihood will be lost. Maybe even if we open elsewhere it will not be like in the cafe again. And what I'm worried about is that it will decide the income of many people. Although later the former cafe building will be made hotels and pubs, but. mother felt not willing." Melly explained.

"Vania didn't talk about it. When did it happen?" Arya then asked.

"The night before the cafe burned down. Vania quarreled with Rian and Rahma."

"Geez!" Arya wiped her face, she remembers that night she was finishing planning an urban project that will begin construction next month. So he can't get home on time and pick up Vania as usual.

"Mom is afraid, what I think is true."

"But it's happened, isn't it?" Arya.

"Yes, and if it's true, then Rahma is absolutely outrageous."

Arya leaned behind the door, as she entered the silent care room of Vania. The woman had become aware of the effect the doctor injected into her during her rampage yesterday morning. But sadness still seemed to dominate him, he was still pensive looking at the gray sky outside the window of his room.

Vania turned her head when she realized that someone was there, and she found her husband who was also with a sad look.

"Have you felt better?" Arya walked over.

Vania nodded her head slowly, but her mouth was tightly locked with no intention of saying a word.

The man sat on the edge of the bed, hesitating to get even closer, he was afraid that Vania would reject him. But the woman did not react. He turned his head back on the pillow.

"Vania...

"Has he been buried?" Vania open the sound.

"Np...

"Has our son been buried?" he repeated the question.

"It." Arya answered.

"Where?"

"After our house. The brother himself buried her, ... earlier this morning." Arya's voice rang out.

Still fresh in his memory, when holding the lifeless little fetus for him to bury in his backyard. The feeling of sadness certainly controlled him, even to this day. Feeling lost and having at the same time.

And it felt even more painful when he realized he would have offspring when he lost it right then and there. He felt like a failure as a husband, and a father of course. Arya continues to curse herself, her insensitivity to Vania's condition, and all her strange behavior so far. His powerful attitude, whiny and his thief that he never even thought would be owned by a woman who always was cheerful and positive, which turned out everything came down from a pregnancy they did not expect.

"Will he be all right?" Vania asked.

"Of course he'll be fine, he's in the best place right now." Arya.

Vania was seen shedding tears, but her lips were locked tightly. She was crying in silence.

Arya slammed into her close, and she re-embraced the weak body, with an equally deep sense of sadness and grief.

"Why didn't I realize I was pregnant? why did I get to sleep like this? all this time I wanted him so much." Vania is back.

"I'm a bad mother, .. I'm sorry brother, I can't take care of our child" she said, who then buried her face in Arya's chest. He cried out in utter disdain, venting out this endless sadness.

"It's not your fault, .. it's not ours. God has more rights over him, and we just have to let him go even if it's hard." Arya hugged the body tightly, which continued to tremble accompanied by roaring cries that she could not bear anymore.
