BETWEEN SAM AND HIM

Sad Again

At the tomb, Medina squatted down, she rubbed her sister's tombstone.

"Sir, Dina's sorry. Dina could not keep the mandate mbak, Dina was forced to tell all the same Mas Sam."

Although Husna had been gone for a dozen years, the tears of sorrow and loss still continued to wash Dina's cheeks, Husna was the only family.

****

While Sam keeps ringing with what Medina told him and it makes Sam continue to regret for having hated Husna.

Flashbacks

In Bali, Medina finds out that Sam is secretly following her, Dina who is walking in the alley to her house stops her steps.

"I know you're following me, Mom!" dina said without looking back.

"Good, lah. So I don't need to hide anymore" replied Sam who also stopped the move.

"Mas, this is the message. I can't tell you where Husna is!" medina said as she turned around, looked at Sam and saw the look of Medina's sad face made Sam more curious.

"Say! I deserve to know! He left me for no reason! I don't know what my fault is! So I deserve to know!"

"What you're saying is, at least. If you know where Husna is, you can reduce your hatred for her!" medina.

"Ck!" Sam clucked. Of course, he will hate Husna who left without reason and cause.

"Not to use drama!" said Sam.

"Bak Husna does not exist! 13 Years ago after fighting his pain alone!" medina said while wiping away her tears that had soaked her cheeks.

"Don't lie to you!" Sam tried not to believe it.

"Why do you ask if you don't believe?" medina.

"Mbak Husna is sick with cancer, he does not want you to know you continue to be sad, make you difficult! That's Husna's sister and at the end of her life always think of you and Darren!" Medina explained with her cry, A sigh, her heart hurts so much when she misses her brother who she can no longer hug.

After hearing about Husna, now, Sam who was standing upright felt that his knees were weak, he did not think that Husna was gone forever.

Medina gave Sam Husna's funeral address.

"Are you serious? Why do I feel you're lying?" sam asked Medina who was still standing in front of him.

"Do you need to see Husna's death warrant?"

After saying that, Medina went to continue her footsteps, she came home sad because Sam had reminded her of Husna's departure.

While Sam, he who still does not believe it was aloof to the beach and there, Sam was accompanied by a foreign young man who brought a bottle of drink, he said, The sad Sam asked the young man for the drink and the young man gave it to him and left Sam alone before Vio and Adiba arrived.

The next day, Sam went to the funeral. The man whose eyes were puffy wanted to not believe Medina but also wanted to know the truth.

Sam goes without saying goodbye to Sarifah as well as Darren and arrives at Sam's funeral looking for Husna's tomb.

There are still fresh flowers on the tomb.

Sam who was crouched beside the tomb asked, "Do you think this is true?"

Sam thought, Husna should have told him about the pain so Sam could help to seek treatment.

Sam, who was heartbroken at being left behind by Husna and left hatred in his heart, must now repeat his heartbreak after learning that Husna is gone for good.

Flashback.

Sarifah delivers lunch to Sam and sees Sam still hugging his roll under the covers.

Sarifah took off the blanket and told him to get up.

"Why you? Broken heart again?" sarifah asked as she pulled Sam's arm and at that time Sarifah felt that Sam's body temperature rose.

"Mom, when are you here?"

Sam just kept quiet. The man further tightened his embrace on the bolster, Sam also closed his eyes, not wanting to ignore Sarifah.

Sarifah sat on the edge of the bed, the old woman rubbed Sam's hair like a little boy's hair.

"Tell me, what makes you like this, Sam?" ask Sarifah.

"Mom.. turned out to be in-he already..," said Sam who stammered and hung the end of his sentence.

"He who? What's already?" It's obvious that you're telling that!" sarifah's protest is still by rubbing Sam's hair.

"Mom, Sam's not a kid anymore, please stop wiping your hair!" sam Pinta.

"If it's not a child, why do you still cry?"

"Mom...." Sam clasped Sarifah's hand, looking at her.

"What's wrong?" Sarifah asked again.

"Husna, Ma'am" said Sam, looking at Sarifah.

"Yes, Husna why? Don't you think he doesn't exist?"

"And that's the truth, Mom. Sam met Dina and Husna's tomb" Sam explained.

Sam also explained the reason Husna left his life and Sarifah who also loved Husna was also sad.

"Then pray for him, Sam. Instead of crying, it won't change anything!"

"Sam was crying out of regret, Mom. Sam had hated him all this time, not looking for him, but, Sam was busy hating" said Sam, "if Sam sought and brought him to seek treatment maybe now we are happy together," sam and Sarifah took a breath.

"It's not your fault, Sam. Husna who left without saying anything, it was already his will and it was fate, his destiny went first!" Sarifah tries to remind Sam to think clearly again.

"Wake up, Husna must be sad to see you like this!"

And it turns out, Sam's chat was heard by Darren who had just returned from college to hear all the conversations between Sam and Sarifah.

"Pi, papi is lucky to know mami. Now, Mami would want Papi to live happily, don't be like this, Mami must have a reason to do this as Papi!" darren said as he walked into Sam's room.

"Little kids know what you are!" said Sam who did not want to look back, Sam turned his back on Sarifah and Darren.

"Believe the same Darren, Pi."

"Believe in the same way as a idol!"

"Good, Papi!" geram Darren shook his head.

While Sarifah patted her head.

"Sam, this isn't the first time you've cried Husna, come on, get up! Husna was crying seeing this from heaven!" Sarifah.

And Sam still didn't move.

Sarifah and Darren become upset, because it is easier to persuade small children than to have to persuade Sam who is difficult to be given understanding.

"If it was Mom who died, would you be like this too, Sam?" sarifah asked and Sam turned around.

Although often quarrelling and always not suitable when exchanging ideas, but, Sam loved Sarifah very much.

"Mother!" said Sam.

"Grandma!" said Darren and the two called out to the wrinkled, white-haired woman at the same time.

Seriate.
