ANINDITA, A Tale of the Past

Grief News

After a dream that he felt very unsettling with the incident of Arya's picture frame falling, Anindita chose to calm herself by choosing to pray midnight. Anindita continued to recite and pray that her husband would always be in the protection of Allah SWT and return to her safely. He continued to pray until suddenly his phone rang.

Anindita smiled as she looked at her husband's name on the screen. Anindita quickly receives a phone call from Arya.

" Ashalamualaikum, Mas. Are you awake?" anindita greeted her with a happy heart because her husband called her again.

" Waalaikumsalam, sorry ... What is this with Mrs Anin, wife of Mr Arya?"

Anindita kept the flat object away from her ear while glancing at the phone screen. But soon he brought the thing close to his ear.

" I-iya, right. W-sorry, who is this with, huh? Why is my husband's phone the same as my father's?" Instantly a sense of uneasiness immediately invaded Anindita's heart.

" Sorry, Mom. I'm Rochman. I was a schoolmate of Mr. Arya first. I just want to get the sad news ...."

Anindita's head seemed to want to explode when she heard the sad news. Her heart was no longer because even the clear liquid immediately melted on her cheek even though she did not know what sad news would be conveyed by her husband's friend.

" B-what's the suffering, sir?" With a trembling voice Anindita tried to brace herself to ask.

" We apologize if we have to deliver this news to Ms. Anin. But we have to inform Mr. Arya's family. Mr. Arya died at about three in the morning, ma'am."

Instantly Anindita felt the sky as if it had collapsed on her body. His sobs broke and his body drooped weakly and fell down even the words of a friend from Arya who said that Arya fell unconscious while performing midnight prayers was not heard anymore.

" More ..." Anindita continued to cry and tearfully felt a deep sadness as she got the news of losing her beloved husband.

" O God, Mas Arya ..." Anindita felt her body tighten until she lost consciousness.

" Mrs ...! Huvaaaa ... Mama ...."

Ricky was just about to fall back asleep when he suddenly heard the screams of Ramadan accompanied by sobs.

" Rama? What's the matter, son?" ask Ricky who found Ramadan sitting down and crying.

" Congratulations, Mama ..." Ramadan is crying.

Ricky immediately embraced Ramadan trying to calm his flesh and blood.

" Mom ..." Ramadhan kept calling his mother. Ricky felt a sense of unease. He remembered the old woman's words yesterday afternoon about the misfortune that would befall Anindita. Ricky quickly grabbed his cell phone to contact the mother of his son.

" Rama calm down, this is Om try to call Mama Anin." Ricky also tried to calm Ramadan.

Ricky snorted because several times his call was not also raised by Anindita. Until he changed to using Ramadhan's cell phone, hoping Anindita will pick up his phone if the one who contacted him was the number of his son. But after several calls, Anindita did not pick up her phone.

Ricky looked at the clock that was showing at four in the morning. While the anxiety began to strengthen. He searches for other names stored in his son's cell phone contacts and he finds Tita's name. Ricky called that number immediately.

About three minutes Ricky tried to connect a phone call with the number ART in Arya's house until finally a raucous voice was heard from the phone belonging to Ramadan.

" Hello, Rama? What's Rama calling Mbak Tita night-night?" Tita's voice sounded like waking up and half-conscious.

" Hello, Ma'am! Ma'am, Rama cried continuously from earlier calling his mother. I called Mama Rama but her phone was not picked up. Can you please connect this phone with Mama Rama? Let Rama calm down and stop crying."

" Oh, this is Mr Ricky, huh? Wait a minute, I'm going to Mom's room first."

" Okay, thank you, Ma'am."

Before long Ricky heard the sound of Tita knocking on the door and calling Anindita.

" Mom, are you awake yet? This is Mr. Ricky calling, he said, Rama was crying and calling Mom."

" Hello, Mr. Ricky. I don't think you're awake yet, huh! You are tapped the same is called do not reply." Tita.

" Is the HP of Mama Ramadhan using ringtones or just shakes?" ask Ricky. Because if you wear a ringtone it feels strange many times on the phone Anindita did not also wake up from her sleep.

" I remember using ringtones, sir."

" A minute ..." Ricky then picks up his own phone and tries to call Anindita's number back.

" Have you heard the incoming call on Mama Ramadhan's HP from outside the room?" ask Ricky.

" Yes, sir."

" obvious?"

" It's a little vague from the outside but there's an incoming phone call."

" But I'm afraid to go in and out of Mom's bedroom without Mom's knowledge, sir!" Tita hesitates to execute Ricky's orders.

" Sir, I am worried that something will happen to Mama Rama. I'm sure he won't be upset if he finds out Rama is suddenly crying all the time." Ricky slightly raised his words hoping Tita would immediately do his bidding.

" B-well, sir." Finally, Tita wants to do what Ricky told her.

" The door's unlocked, sir."

" Yes you went in and saw Mama Rama, why not pick up the phone?" ricky's orders are back.

" Okay, Sir!"

" Mom, are you awake yet?"

Ricky hears Tita's voice as if talking to Anindita.

" Astaghfirullahal is the adzim !! Mom, what's the matter?" peeking Tita like a shocked person.

" Hello, Anindita why, Ma'am?" Ricky who heard Tita's screech immediately gasped, until he unconsciously called Anindita's name.

" Mom, wake up, Mom! Mother why?"

" Hello, Ma'am! What the hell's going on? Anindita why?" Ricky again showed his anxiety.

" H-hello, Mr. Ricky. I-mom passed out, sir."

" Fainted??" Ricky again gasped, he turned back to his son who was still crying bitterly while calling his mother.

" Yes, Ma'am please try to make Anin aware, use aromatherapy oil or others. I'll slide right there!" Without waiting for a response from Tita, Ricky turns off his phone call. Ricky immediately changed clothes and immediately carried Ramadan who was still sobbing out of his apartment to Arya's house.

" Mom, wake up, Mom! Why did you faint?" Tita was confused to find her employer's wife collapsed. She then looked for cajuput oil in Anindita's room because during pregnancy Anindita enjoyed inhaling the oil to overcome her nausea.

Tita tried to remove the mucus that is still used Anindita and justify the position of Anindita who slept below. He even had time to check on the thigh of Anindita because he was worried about the fetus in the womb Anindita because his employer's wife fell unconscious earlier.

Tita then applied cajuput oil near Anindita's nose. He looked around Anindita's eyes that looked puffy even he could see Anindita's face that had not dried because of the melting of tears.

" Mom, what's wrong, Mum?" tanya Tita even though she knew Anindita would not answer her question.

Tita then glanced at the postel Anindita who fell not far from the position of Anindita fainted. He grabbed the phone somewhat doubtfully. But finally Tita ventured to check the incoming or outgoing calls made by Anindita because she suspected that Anindita fainted after calling.

Many of Ricky's and Ramadhan's names go unanswered until he finds Arya's name calling in at about three past fifty-five minutes.

" Did Mom faint after receiving a call from Mr. Arya, huh?" tita muttered wondering. He then tries to call Arya's number.

He waited for some time until his call was finally lifted.

" Hello, Assalamualaikum, sir. You called Mom, right? You know, mom's fainting now." Tita immediately reports what happened to Anindita to the person she suspects Arya picked up her phone.

" Waalaikumsalam, yes it is, Ma'am. I called Anin's mother" said the person on Anindita's phone.

" Who, whose father is this? This is Mr. Arya's HP number, right?" tanya Tita was surprised to find someone else answering her phone call.

" I'm a friend of Mr. Arya's, Ma'am. I did inform the family that Mr. Arya had died early this morning."

" Innalillahi Wainnaillaihi Roji. Oh Allah, Mr. Arya ... Ma'am, Mr. Arya, Ms ..." Tita also could not help but cry when she heard the sad news. He even dropped Anindita's phone and hugged Anindita's body which was still limp.
