Grief News



After a long debate between her husband and her sister who insisted on bringing Rahma home, Anggara finally gave up. Rahma even found out that Joseph had been suspicious of her husband. Yusuf said that before today he had seen Anggara together with his second wife in a shopping center in Bandung.


He who has many acquaintances in Bandung asked his friends for help to find information about his brother-in-law. Some evidence he had obtained, his intention to clarify it to the brother immediately realized when he invited one of his friends to accompany his brother to attend the four-monthly thanksgiving invitation.


Yusuf who could no longer hold himself bombarded Anggara with very slapping words. Not as disrespectful, but as the younger brother of an unjustly treated older sister Yusuf felt the need to do anything to defend his older brother.


I don't know what Joseph said until Finally Anggara gave up and allowed his first wife to be brought home by his sister-in-law.


A few days after the incident Anggara returned to Garut, he apologized and promised to be fair even though Rahma herself did not know the fair version Anggara meant.


Flashback off


Two months passed, Rahma still survived her marriage because she remembered her father was still in the process of healing. He did not want to add to the burden of his parents' minds with the household problems he was facing. The choice of parting always crossed Rahma's mind, but again the mother who always prides her children and daughter-in-law who always get along and harmonious in between their chatter makes Rahma hesitant and worried if she must be honest and decide to separate.


For now, let himself swallow the bitter pill of fate that was greeting him. Fortunately, the presence of her sister and her best friend Lisna who knew the bitter reality she was facing was enough to give her strength to be stronger in the face of the test of her life. Teaching activity was enough to be a self-expression from the fatigue of his mind, although lately Rahma often felt tired quickly because of the influence of her pregnancy so she decided to resign from the school where she worked, so that she decided to resign, surely for another reason only Rahma and Allah know. However, fortunately, she did not experience nausea and vomiting as a natural condition that is often felt by women during young pregnancy.


Anggara increasingly sent him messages showing his concern, even though only a short reply by Rahma. Monthly money that he usually sent to Rahma's account even increased three times than usual. Maybe this is what the fair version of Anggara means, thought Rahma. He only smiled when he got a notification on his mobile banking.


For a month after the incident at the house of his father-in-law Anggara once a week came to visit Rahma even though it seems he did it without the knowledge of his second wife. Unfortunately, it only lasted a month. Now it is true that her sister said that her husband had not come home for a month and was rumored to be out of town because of business.


"Dec, how are you?" sorry for not having time to go home again, "said Rahma shifted her conversation with the sister that afternoon in the city park not far from the complex of his house, which is not far from the city,


"Father the better the tea, Alhamdulillah. Teteh..... really resigned from school?" Joseph asked back, he who got word from Lisna Rahma's friend that his brother resigned from school was shocked and immediately asked the brother directly, that is the essence of their meeting this afternoon.


"Heummm...you know from Lisna?" Rahma glanced at her sister,


"Yes tea Lisna told me, she also requested that I persuade you to cancel your resignation from school. If you want to take a break take a leave of absence he said do not immediately resign." Joseph said at length, according to the information he got from Lisna.


"Unfortunately the resignation letter has been acc, the foundation has also opened a new guri recruitment to replace the teteh" Rahma said with a thin smile on her lips,


"Why did they do it? has not it been a teacher and teaching at a favorite school been a dream? if you know for sure the father will not support the decision teteh"


"Who said?" asked Rahma with the position of the body slightly away from the sister and squinted her eyes at him,


"I mean teteh?" joseph did not understand what his brother was saying,


"Teteh applied to become one of the tutors in the online bimbel place, Alhamdulillah graduated. Notably the salary is also large and can be done anywhere" Rahma told her sister if her decision to withdraw from the foundation where she teaches is done after she is accepted as a tutor at another institution.


"Thank God, whatever I think is good I will support. I believe whatever decision you make must have been carefully thought out and I will support it. Except one..." Joseph paused his words, and,


"What?" asked Rahma curiously,


"The decision is always to survive to be his wife the jerk" Yusuf again always provoked emotions if talking to his sister-in-law that one, Yusuf,


"Dek, istighfar. Even though he's aya from your niece-to-be" Rahma rubbed her belly that began to bulge.


"Ckk..iya I know" Yusuf replied still in a heartless tone, and Rahma only smiled in response.


"You know, you want to go there?" joseph asked, beginning to loosen the veins in his jaw that had hardened,


"Yes, if you have free time to be escorted there" said Rahma enthusiastically, she was relieved her sister had returned to calm.


"How about tomorrow? I also need to be with Fauzan. But must be contacted first tea, who knows Shanumnya tea again not in his home. Usually Shanum tea is more often in his mother's place, there he had a rice tea shop"


Their conversation continues about Shanum, the man she met for the first time two months ago during a tragedy at her in-laws' home.


Derr....Derrr... Derrr....


While busy chatting while enjoying the young coconut water purchased from traders who live in the park area of the city. Suddenly Joseph's cell phone, which was kept in his jacket pocket, shook. They were the attention of some of the people who were there. The tall body of Joseph and the little Rahma on Joseph's shoulders made them like lovers.


"There's a tea phone, please" she gave Rahma permission to pick up her phone.


"Sir RT!" Yusuf frowned, seeing the name plastered on his flat screen was Mr. RT.


"What did Mr. RT call me?" he was confused,


"Have a deck, who knows how important it is" Rahma suggested,


"Yes Tea" Yusuf also shifted the green icon on the screen of his phone,


"Assalamu'alaikum" Yusuf greets the caller after his call is connected.


"...."


"Yes, Sir. Can anyone help?" yusuf said casually even though it sounded from across there the caller spoke as if he had run away.


"...."


"What?" yusuf's cry, made Rahma slightly jumped because of shock at the loud voice of the sister, who was,


"Daddy, what's wrong?" asked Rahma with a worried face, Yusuf only looked at her sharply because he was still focused on listening to the caller,


"Well, sir, I'll be home soon, thank you Pa" Yusuf disconnected his phone and put it in his jacket pocket immediately,


"Sir...."


"Father fainted tea, now taken to the same hospital Mr. RT. There was a guest who came to the house before you fainted." Joseph explained quickly and hurriedly prepared to go home,


"Huh? who?" asked Rahma who was panicking too,


"No idea, now we better get to the hospital. He was taken to RSU, he said"


The two brothers immediately headed for the park with anxiety in their hearts....
