Almira's Regret

Wanna dinafkahi?

Mira laughed softly, she sat down while Adelia picked up the book. As she stared at the photo above the nightstand Mira felt familiar with one of the faces in the photo.

This it?

The one in the photo is similar to Dion at a glance. A man who is lost is like drowning at the bottom of an ocean. However, if you look closer his face is far from the face of Dion who was then indulging in poison seduction.

"That's a picture of the three of us, brother. It's Mas Fahmi, it's me and it's Bang Ion." Adel showed me one photo in the face.

Ion or Dion? but there's no way that's what Mira's looking for. Fahmi's family looks so religious really different from Dion's.

Mira thought again to find a new place to live. But he also had to investigate this Ion or Dion. Everyone will change over time. An ordinary looking ion could indeed be a handsome Dion at this moment.

His heart rippled if the man was the Dion he was looking for. Then they were reunited and Fahmi's family blessed him would be very happy he was in the middle of the right person.

"How many photos were taken last year?"

"What's the matter, brother?"

"You look so cute here." Mira was looking for a gap to get information.

"That's my fifth grade SD photo if I'm not mistaken."

"Ooohh means that Fahmi's doctor was 24 years old huh?"

Adelia looked over with a meaningful smile. Of course he guessed that Mira has a crush on her widowed brother. Mira is counting the age of a man named Ion.

Adelia did not learn Mira. He focused more on other topics. "Sir Mira, if there is a man who likes Mira's sister but turns out to be a widower. Would it be accepted?"

Mira chuckled, Adelia must be thinking about her words. "If the widower you're referring to is doctor Fahmi, I'm sorry I can't" Mira said. He knows himself enough not to miss things that are hard to achieve. His main focus at the moment is to improve himself and look for Dion. Thank you if you meet if not yes still he has to cover his chest.

Adelia laughed, "just this time there are those who refuse to face Fahmi. There are usually a lot of people who like him. Although he sucks in my opinion but he's lukewarm, brother. Handsome, rich, soleh also I think Kak Mira nolak anyway?"

"Because he's too perfect for a sinner like me."

"Sister Mira don't get discouraged. Not all sinners have to be exempt."

Mira assures. He wanted to pry more info about that man named Ion. Obviously, their names are similar to just one letter. Even with the face.

From the conversation with Adelia he knew that the man named Ion was abroad. He said he'd be home soon. Mira can't wait to meet the man. I hope he is the Dion. The man who once gave attention and became a cool heart Mira amid a drought of affection. The man she still loves despite destroying her future. Hope Mira broke before airing, Adelia said that her brother was married.

Mira's trying to control herself, maybe it's not her Dion. Mira's sadness is sidetracked when Adelia invites herself to accompany Syafa to play. The little boy was like a medicine that was able to alleviate Mira's heartache.

Due to good family upbringing, Adelia was able to take good care of her niece. Once again it makes Mira compare with him. Adel grew up in a healthy family, well-educated the future of the girl looks bright. Although himself. Unknowingly his tears fell back immediately when Syafa approached.

"Kok this brother is crying, sad he wants me to play?" that innocent question made Mira laugh again. So did Adelia who heard it.

"Can't you play?" ask Mira.

"Can, let's play doctor. Brother was sick let's sleep let me check," he ordered.

Mira follows Syafa's orders lying down. Then the little boy put a toy stethoscope on Mira's forehead. Again the funny behavior of Syafa makes the adults around him laugh. "Wait, have to take medicine first" Syafa said as he ran towards the kitchen followed by the caregiver. Not long back come and bring one pcs of strawberry city. "Let's open his mouth, it's sweet." Pouring that one colored fruit into Mira's mouth.

The roar of a car that was heard entering the yard of the house, made Syafa leave his toys. He ran towards the door that was close to the playroom. "Father home" he cheered.

Fahmi's tiredness always evaporates when meeting the child. Syafa who always welcome his arrival at the door is like replacing the role of women who leave him for no reason. The woman who gave birth to Syafa but left when the child was one and a half years old.

"Assalamualaik." Fahmi approached while widening a smile. Stretch out the hand for the child to run into his arms.

Fahmi carries Syafa while continuing to laugh at the babbling of the child. Put her down when Adelia approached her. While Mira only nodded for a while then was invited back to play by Syafa.

"Where?" asked Fahmi when he only stayed with his sister.

"Pathetic."

"Let's talk in the room, Mas." They went up to the second floor.

***

From the balcony of Fahmi's room you can see Mira walking towards the fish pond. The woman sat there and was seen breathing deeply several times.

Fahmi already knew about Mira from Adelia as well as from her man whom he paid to find and obtain Mira's data. How depressing. The girl seemed to be talking alone. His hands seemed to be wiping the corners of his eyes a few times.

Feel compassionate. Fahmi got down and approached Mira. There is no other purpose than compassion.

Deheman Fahmi's voice makes Mira push and someone might wipe the rest of his prey. "Doc?"

"People are already sleeping but you're sitting here instead. Not cold?" The weather did not rain that night but it was very cold.

"Not sleepy, Doc."

"Need a friend to talk, pity the fish when invited to chat. They also have to sleep" Fahmi joked, sitting one meter away with Mira. His mature age is able to position himself as anyone. It could be a sister, brother, friend, brother like a parent.

"So if you talk to the fish will not be spread again, Doc. So it seems safe to confide in them."

"Indeed, if to just release the tightness in the chest it could be one way but can not be a solution. Really not?" Fahmi spoke without looking.

"This doctor's funny," mussy Mira.

"Where was your day?" Fahmi's question was a small concern that Mira's parents never gave her. His heart warmed slightly just hearing such a question.

"Thank God, Doc."

"What is your plan after? Go home to your parents or what?"

"The doctor must have heard the story about me from Adel."

"Yes that's right. What was Adel's solution? He is learning to be a good listener. He said he wanted to be a psychologist."

"I don't know Doc either. But I thought I would find a place to live and find a job. I hope someone gives me a job."

Silent. Fahmi has not yet responded to Mira's words. "Don't want to go home to your parents?"

"I've embarrassed them. I don't dare to go home, Doc."

"I'm sorry they are, yes" Fahmi says and is taken in by tired Mira. "If you don't want to go home, just stay here. Let Adel have friends, Syafa too. He was troubling you?"

"No, Doc, Syafa's a good boy. Thank you for the offer to stay here but I want to try Mandiri."

"Have you thought carefully? You will live alone in a place that you do not understand the ins and outs will certainly not be easy."

"That's true but I don't want to be troublesome. The life span of the doctor must be a lot of what else if plus me," kekeh Mira.

"All of you get blessed too come on if you want,"
