After arguing with her mother, Aji takes Khodijah to an alternative medicine treatment. With the help of Haidar, Aji sat Khodijah on a motorcycle seat. After that, he sat in the back to bear the weight of Khodijah's body.

Difficult indeed. However, Aji had no other choice. Relatives whose homes are close by, do not have a four-wheeled vehicle at all. As for renting the vehicle, Aji also has no money.

"I'm Sorry, Colored. Only an effort like this can Akang do for your recovery" whispered Aji in Khodijah's ear.

Arrive at the treatment site. Aji and Haidar help Khodijah get off the bike. Quickly, Aji held the thick body of the wife. Although Aji feels tired because his body is inversely proportional to Khodijah. However, Aji did not want to give up.

Aji immediately lowered Khodijah and asked Haidar to support the body of Khodijah who was unable to sit upright on the chair. After that, he registered Khodijah as a patient.

Aji spread her gaze. The treatment is quite crowded as well. If counted with the naked eye, there were about twenty people who were about to seek treatment. That means, Aji must patiently queue up to get the incoming call.

After registering, Aji then returned to the waiting chair to replace Haidar. Although it feels achy, but Aji still survive for the sake of his love for the woman who has given him three children.

A few hours later, Khodijah's name was finally called. Assisted by a nurse carrying a wheelchair, Khodijah was taken to a special room to be examined.

"Hows it? Feels?" ask the healer who is giving small pinches around the calf of his patient.

Khodijah just shook his head. A moment later, the physician again tickled the sole of Khodijah's feet, raising the same question. And again, Khodijah answered him with a headband.

The doctor began to ask his assistant for something. A second later, the nurse pushing Khodijah's wheelchair, handed the doctor a small bowl. Using a tool that resembles a stick, but has a shorter size. The healer began to press the sole of Khodijah's foot.

"Aww!" Suddenly Khodijah screamed as the small stick pressed down on a few spots on the soles of his feet.

Khodijah's screams become Aji's hope for the recovery of his wife. His heart was so happy when he heard Khodijah's scream. Khodijah still has a chance to walk again.

After a few seconds, the healer rinsed the entire calf of Khodijah with a reddish oil. I don't know what the oil is called. However, Khodijah's smile rose when her calves were warmed by the oil. This means that Khodijah's sense of touch can still function properly.

O Lord .. please give the servant healing again, so that the servant can take care of the family of the servant, the inner Khodijah.

Arrive at the bus terminal. Roni is looking for a shady place to park his bike. He glanced at the clock that was coiling in his hand. There was still half an hour before the bus that Yandri was riding on arrived at the terminal. Roni also re-started the two-wheeled vehicle to look for something that can prop up the stomach. Understandably, the worms in his stomach have been protesting for lunch rations.

A few minutes down the highway to the west, Roni saw a rice stall that was so clean. He then turned his motorbike to park in front of the rice stall.

Roni entered the stall seconds after his motorbike was parked.

"Bang, eat here, yes" said Roni to the steward of the rice stall padang who was wrapping rice.

"May you, what's it wearing?" ask waiter.

"Rendang use kuah nangka only, Bang. Don't forget the ice cream, yes!" roni Pinta.

"Ready, Mom! Please sit down, Mas," continued the waiter

Roni smile. He then looked for a seat to wait for the food to come.

"It's herbal medicine to drink twice a day, sir," said the nurse who guards the pharmacy there.

"Morning and afternoon, Tea?" ask Aji.

"Morning and night, sir. Before going to bed," replied the nurse. "And this is Olive oil to relax the stiff nerves of the mother. Use it twice a day after the mother has taken a bath" the nurse continued.

"All right, I understand. How much is total, Tea?" ask Aji.

"Before, sir," said the woman, calculating the cost of the drug and the examination of Khodijah. "The total is 225 thousand, sir," he continued.

Aji nodded. He then took the wallet out of the back pocket of his pants. Aji took out the fitting money and handed it to the nurse.

Finished making the payment, Aji took the herbal concoction medicine for his wife. After that, he again approached Khodijah who was sitting in a wheelchair.

"We're home now, Deck!"

Roni's phone was stored on the table, vibrating. Roni glanced at the name listed above the screen. "Bang Yandri?" muttered.

Roni hurriedly washed her hands and raised a call from Yandri.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Bang!" greet Roni shortly after sliding the answer button.

"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. You're gonna go get brother, Ron?" ask Yandri across the phone.

"So, Bang. This is Roni again deket terminal. Eat again first" replied Roni. "Where did you get to?" continued.

"Yes, Ron. It just so happens that the driver is very nimble," joked Yandri.

"Hehehe, you can. Yeah, well, Roni pay first, Bang. The abis went straight to the terminal, "Roni replied

"Yes, Ron. Just relax. Yes, you did, Brother hang up. Assalamu'alaikum!" Yandri.

"Wa'alaikumsalam" said Roni.

After the phone connection was cut off, Roni immediately went from the chair to the cashier's desk.

"So how much, Bang?" tanyakanya.

"25 thousand rupiah, Mas," replied the waiter of the rice stall padang

Roni took out three pieces of ten thousand and handed them to the cashier.

"This is the change, Mas," said the cashier, handing over a five-thousand note to Roni.

"Here you go, take it, Bang!" sahut Roni's.

"Wow, thank you. May the windfall be wider, "do'a the cashier.

"Either. Aamiin" concluded Roni.

After paying for the food, Roni returned to the parking lot. A moment later, he turned on the motor and drove it towards the terminal. He did not want Yandri to wait a long time for his arrival.
