Linda and Romi can only provide support to Della and Danang by phone or video call. Because the two of them could not return home at will, given some things they had to pay attention to. Including Erli, who is currently in school in the big city.
So, it was impossible to ignore Erli's school which was only a few months old. Because it will affect mental development and Erli's ability to adjust to his friends and new environment.
Danang and Della did not question it, the important thing is that they get their attention and support. From the prayers offered by his two brothers.
..."It's okay Romi. Pray for Della, hope the operation is smooth."...
..."Definitely Del, you calm down! do not be afraid, because it will affect your blood pressure. Fear if you feel afraid, even go up and the operation becomes delayed."...
..."Yes Mas. Della's hope is to stay calm and always pray."...
..."You keep going, just don't daydream yourself."...
..."Yes Mas. Della remembers the message from Mas Romi. Oh yes Mas, greetings to Erli and mbak Linda ya Mas!"...
..."Yes, here they are next to me all anyway, try greeting them."...
..."Hello Aunt Della..."...
..."Hi cute Erli! Auntie kangen Darling!"...
..."Erli also misses Aunt Della. Be healthy Auntie, later messing around to father's house here as well as Danang!"...
..."Hiks. yes, dear."...
..."Here's a change for Mama Darling! hello Del, you spirit yes! Consider it a job interview. Hehe..."...
..."Uh yes Linda. Thank you!"...
Eventually the three of them took turns talking to Della over the phone. In fact, Erli and Linda are scrambling to be able to get a speaking turn.
This made Romi and Della laugh with pleasure, because the mother and son were both unwilling to budge.
But it turns out that it can make Della more relaxed and not tense, so forget the operating schedule tomorrow.
Danang was also happy, because his wife did not feel sad and was afraid to face the operation of suctioning the thyroid gland in his neck.
Sometimes, small things that are not much and like not worth doing, can make others smile and entertain.
Just like Linda and Erli did, who were scrambling over the phone. But in fact, it became a separate entertainment for Della. Who's been resting in the patient's room since this morning. Until now, Della can smile at the behavior of her brother-in-law and nephew.
..."Yes it is Del, you rest first. Tomorrow, before entering the operating room, God willing we call again."...
..."Yes Ma'am. Thank you, Ma'am."...
..."Assalamualaik..."...
..."Ma'am Waallaikumsalam, Mas Erli!"...

Cup cup!
Linda and Erli, get a kiss gift on each other's cheeks from Romi. Because he had comforted his sister, Della.
"Dad..."
"Yes..."
Linda and Erli, compact with equal protest. Because of the kiss that did not ask permission in advance from Romi.
"Haha..."
But Romi just laughed out loud, seeing the reaction of the two women different generations.
He felt very happy with the two of them, who had entered his life at this time. It can be a powerful medicine. Not only when he feels lonely when there is a tired time after work. But under any circumstances, the two of them were able to get her back excited and smiling happily.
Romi really feels grateful, with everything he has right now. Because even though Erli is not her biological child, but she loves Erli very much, just like she loves Della, her only biological sister.
Now in the life of Romi, there are three women who became the encouragement of his life. In order to become a man who deserves to be used as a role model, dream and also a priest.
Two will try their hardest, so as not to disappoint them. People around him, and they love him too.
"Dad..."
Erli shouted, and tugged at his father's arm. Which makes Romi aware of daydreams. In fact, in front of him right now there is Linda too, who is looking at him with a strange look.
Maybe because Linda realized, if now her husband was in a state of daydreaming. So she asked her son, to wake up her husband by shouting to call his father.
This made Linda and Erli laugh while embracing Romi's shoulders with a spoiled tangle.
"Dad what are you doing?" asked Erli to know.
"Della's thinking, huh?" linda asked half a whisper. Next to Romi's head, close to the ears. So that Erli did not listen to what she asked her husband.
"Emmhh... I want to take Erli for a walk ahead of there. Wanna don't?" ask Romi, aimed at Erli.
But, this made Linda pout. Feeling neglected by her husband. Just because Romi was asking his son, Erli.
"What is Erli invited to do, Mama is not?" linda asked, with her face looking sour. Because the sword is sulking.
"Darling, look at Mama! Time is so sulking, right? erli's losing time, huh?"
Romi actually more tempting his wife, in order to sulk. By seeking approval and conspiring with his son. To work on his wife, who is Erli's own mother.
"Yeeee... Mama was not invited by dad! Asheikk... Eri dong was taken for a walk!"
Erli seemed to understand what his father wanted, so he made fun of his mother. So that it increases.
And apparently, Linda also understood the conspiracy of the child and her husband. So that he also pretended to be getting angry and annoyed at the two of them.
Erli and Linda's pretend actions are compact, it makes Romi even more anxious on both. Which in the end made him laugh while embracing the shoulders of the child and his wife.
"Hahaha.you guys are very compact to laugh. Get a gift from dad later. Haha..."
Romi's laughter really could not be held back, so he continued to laugh happily. Because of his wife and son.
This made Linda smile thinly, seeing how her husband who could already be cheerful again. Because since hearing the news about Della's illness, Romi always seemed moody.
Not that she did not care about the pain that Della suffered, but Linda did not want her husband to think, and ultimately had an effect on her health as well. Because, if you are thinking a lot, of course Romi will be difficult to rest and also can not eat regularly.
Now, they both invited romi to take a walk to the main road, which usually if it was late afternoon like this there would be a lot of wagon food sellers who went crazy. Good simple food to food that smells abroad.
Of course this made Erli clap his hands, because he was happy.
So does Linda, who feels grateful for everything she has felt at this time.
By having Romi as her husband, she is getting used to expressing what she is feeling, wanting, and also not liking.
Linda also saw that happiness on the face of her son, who could accept Romi as a substitute for her papa.
Erli seemed happy with Romi, who also loved him just like he loved his own children. And it seems, Erli can also make Romi always smile.
He hoped that none of this would pass as time went on.
Linda will strive to be able to maintain the happiness and well-being of her family. Although not a jumble of treasures, and luxury.
*****
At his uncle Romi's house.
His second wife came crying, because she could not get the luxury of her husband. Who is currently experiencing mental disorders.
He must start thinking about finding a job, in order to meet the needs of himself and his children. For it is impossible for her to ask her husband or her sister.
"I'm going to divorce Ma'am. I'm gonna find a job for my life and my kids. But I'm sorry Ma'am, because I won't be able to take care of her and also pay for all her treatment."
"Later, if I had a job and no longer lacked, I would have seen it here. I'm sorry, Ma'am!"
After that, he left and handed a letter from the court for the hearing. Although she also knew, if her husband was unlikely to be able to come to court. To attend their divorce hearing invitations.
"I'm saying goodbye to you."
The first wife could only nod her head, and could not prevent the honey from leaving. Because, she also could not meet the needs of life from her honeymoon sister, who had taken her husband.
Since the marriage of her two husbands was done officially, their divorce was also done in the religious court as it should be.
"Hopefully you can learn from this experience, so that you will not seize the happiness of another woman. If you can, you don't think about your own happiness either. But focus on work and taking care of the kids."
The hope was uttered by the first wife, who could only trade on the front porch of her house. To be able to earn income to meet the needs of her life, along with her own children and take care of her husband.
She could not possibly work by getting out of the house, because if that happened, her husband would have no one to monitor.
So he was forced to only be able to do work that did not leave the house. To take care of her children and her husband. Although now it is no longer like before, because her husband has not earned any income, since experiencing psychiatric disorders.
