Afternoon

"Become ... Tiaaa ...," call a woman who looks so anxious and sad

"What's wrong? You why? Is something bothering you?" he asked when he saw Andin's worried face.

"Tia, hurry home!! Your mother is waiting" he said with a lowered gaze unable to look at his best friend's face anymore

"Mother? Why with him, do not make me curious Andin," added Tia still continues to stare at Andin who was bowed in front of her

"Let's go home," asked Andin and immediately pulled Tia's arm to come with her

Arriving at home, Tia who saw her family had been crying as much as possible caused a lot of questions in her mind.

"What's this about? Why are you crying? Who's mother hurt you?" tanyanya in a row while approaching her mother who still continues to cry and immediately hugged her so tightly.

"Tia you better pack up, we'll be home tomorrow morning" said a woman who is none other than Sisi's older sister Tia.

"Going home? Why home?" tia said still in a full tone asked why his family wanted to go home suddenly like this, but this morning everything still seemed fine.

"Grandmother Tia ... Grandma died," replied Sisi who immediately made Tia unable to speak, her body seemed to have no energy, her blood seemed to stop flowing to hear the news that she really did not want to hear. Her tears began to drip down her smooth cheeks, she no longer spoke a word, as if not accepting what she had just heard, hoping that all this was just a nightmare. But he regained consciousness when his father hugged him and tried to strengthen him.

"We must be sincere, son, this is all the destiny of God, do'a kana Grandma in order to get a decent place by his side," he said to encourage his family not to be too sad and can make the departure of their Grandmother who is none other than the Mother of her Father Tia herself.

"Well, now you have to pack up because tomorrow we have to leave.!!" he continued while removing the embrace from his daughter's body.

In the room, Tia still could not accept everything she heard earlier, she put her stuff into the suitcase but her mind still continued to digest her father said.

"Is this not a dream? Did Grandma leave me forever? But why so soon, Grandma, even you promised to accompany me if I was going to get married later, why did you break your promise Nek," he murmured inwardly, and continued to drip the crystal seed from her beautiful eyes, until she finally fell asleep, because she might also have been exhausted working last afternoon.

Morning

Tia was still silent a thousand languages, unable to accept all the fact that the Grandmother she loved so much had left her for good.

Since the age of two years Tia was cared for by her Grandmother because her parents continue to work to find nafka in order to support the family, so that the family, until Tia was 11 years old and had to follow her parents because they could not continue school. Since a year ago Tia could not meet with her Grandma because of such a long distance, she was coming back to see her Grandma but things had changed, her Grandmother was no longer able to return her embrace, she said, no longer able to kiss and pamper his favorite grandson.

"Tia, the car has come," said Andin who had been holding his best friend's hand, he understood how Tia felt, because Tia often told and proud of her Grandma.

"Well, I say yes Ndin You are good here I will miss you very much," said Tia, as soon as he immediately realized his best friend and immediately embraced his best friend tightly

"Hmm .. Stop crying Tia, you really look so ugly with puffy eyes," said Andin trying to calm Tia. "I'm gonna miss you so much" she continued, seeing Tia crying, in her arms, "now, get in the car or you're gonna miss the plane," he continued, which began to help Tia get into the car that was waiting.

On the way to the airport, not a single family started the conversation, all still in their minds, Tia continued to look out the window, remembering all the memories with her beloved Grandma, the tenderness and affection of a Grandmother makes her very fragile when she recalls that her Grandmother is gone.

After almost two hours of travel and they arrived at the airport.

"No, sister, I'm not hungry yet" he replied briefly as he continued to pull his suitcase into the airport.

All was silent again, no one started talking until the departure time

~

About 5 hours they were on the plane and finally arrived at the airport in Kota M," they had to continue by riding a bus for about 30 minutes to get to the house of Almarhuma Granny Tia.

Remaining in silence, her tears continued to flow during the journey, she could not help but feel all the sadness and guilt of not being able to accompany her Grandmother in her last time

Arriving at the funeral home all the families who saw them began to approach and give strength to each other in order to receive all this with a chest of air, while Tia herself, who was not, he went inside without caring about the person who looked at him with empathy.

"sam ... Grandma, are you really leaving me for good?" he said beside the already stiff body and covered in a shroud. Tia deliberately told the family not to bury her Grandma before they returned, because she wanted to see that face for the last time.

"Why can you break your promise to me, Nek," he said softly in a sobbing, "why is my Grandma's face covered like this? Did you guys deliberately want to cover her pretty face from me?" he looked at everyone in the room.

"Nek ... You see, they don't even let me see you, Grandma" he said again in a voice he could barely get out of.

"Tia, calm down, Grandma will be sad if you continue like this" Sisi persuaded her to try to calm her sister and embrace the small body.

"Grandmother even reneged on her promise to me sister," he said to Sisi who also could no longer hold the crystal grains to fall.

"But .. we must be sincere Tia, God loves Grandma more, Pray Grandma can get a decent place in Sisi," said Sisi by continuing to calm his sister.

"Now, let's clean up first and join in sending a do'a for Grandma before the funeral, because it's okay if it's too long like this," he continued, who began to lead his sister in to purify themselves.

After finishing, the two of them immediately took a position next to his Grandmother, family and relatives who saw them also felt so handsome, what else to Tia who was from childhood in foster care by her Grandmother

"Stop crying, otherwise Grandma won't calm down" said a man who stroked the tops of the women's heads. He is Diki the brother of Tia and Sisi.

"Yes Mas" the two women replied simultaneously, trying to stop her crying

After finishing with the reading of Do'a, then the body in all imaginable at the nearest mosque and after that go straight to the cemetery.

After the funeral one by one relatives and family returned to their respective homes, only the very close family remained including the Tia family.

"Sir, be calm in your new nature, I will never forget you, I love you so much, it's hard to accept this fact Grandma" he said, continuing to caress the tombstone in front of him

"Let's go home, it's almost dark," asked Diki to his youngest sister, and answered a nod by Tia.

"I say goodbye to Nek, I promise to visit you as often as possible," he said, then kissed his grandmother's tombstone and then left following his family.
