Buih Becomes a Tapestry
Chapter 60



Gibran realized from his stupor but he could not move all his body. Feet and hands suddenly stiff, it feels like half dead. His head was also a little dizzy.


Maria, who has been waiting for two days in the hospital, was relieved by the circumstances of her husband, "Papa is aware?"


Gibran circulated a gaze observing the surroundings, in a feeble and quivering voice, "I am where, Ma?"


Maria rubbed her shoulders gently and replied, "Papa is now being treated in the hospital."


Gibran tried to get up but his body could not be compromised. He panicked and asked his wife who looked sad. "Ma, why is my body so hard to move?"


Maria took a breath and threw it away slowly, "Papa has a stroke."


Gibran was so shocked, "What's Ma, Stroke?" She cried wriggling. The screams of his voice would not be able to change anything.


The treasures he had accumulated for a long time would not be able to help him. Free, maybe that one word suits him.


Maria could not bear to see her husband at this time.


Gibran drained his tears until he did not come out again, then he shouted. "I don't want to be like this Ma, help me!"


Mary cried, then comforted. "It's Pa, who's patient, maybe it's a trial for us to become better human beings."


After her husband improved and accepted the situation, Maria tried to recount all the events before she fainted. Gibran wept lamenting the terrible fate that befell him.


Shortly after, the doctor who treated him came. Checking his body and blood pressure.


Although Gibran asked about the truth of his present condition, the doctor's answer was the same as Mary's. Stroke exposed.


Want how else the situation has rotated like a wheel that is not always on top. Seeing his condition, Gibran suddenly remembered his eldest daughter.


Feeling Gibran was thinking, Maria was curious and asked, "What is Papa thinking right?"


Gibran then tells his past.


Before marrying Maria, she was married to a village woman and had one daughter who was the same age as Vivi.


Maria stiffened to hear her husband's story, "So Vivi has a sister?" And without realizing it, her tears fell. Feeling that her husband's love is not only for himself, but also has been in other women.


Gibran regretted leaving his daughter and he felt he was getting karma from his attitude. "I want to meet my daughter. I wanted to apologize to him. That way the pain I'm suffering from can be a little treated."


Maria shook her head in disbelief, "But Pa, where am I going to find your daughter?"


Gibran sighed, "I don't have his picture either. He is a fat man named Alula Farhah. There's my last name in there. Help me Maria, who else cares about my life if it's not you. Find him for me!"


Maria remembers the money her husband had given her, the money was lost due to being trapped in the arms. In fact, Gibran did not scold him. Remembering that made Maria accept her husband's request to find Alula. "good. Don't think about it, the most important thing is that Papa gets well and gets out of this hospital!"


Then Maria raised her hand and gently rubbed the back of her husband's hand, "I'll ask Vivi for help."


Hearing that Gibran felt calmer, "Yes Ma, papa doesn't like the smell of the hospital either."

Vivi gets bored in the room constantly, she wants to go out to look - look at Nabil's house. Nabil lives alone while his parents live in Bandung.


Vivi wandered around the house and looked around, hoping to find food in the kitchen. Once there he did not find any food, even the contents of an empty refrigerator.


Someone's voice shocked him when he opened the refrigerator. "Vivi, I'm sorry I forgot you were in my house. I live alone so rarely cook and even I never touch the kitchen at all." said Nabil who went home first during the office break.


Nabil is too sensitive to his best friend's ex-girlfriend. He brought her a pack of her favorite food, rice kebuli.


Nabil led Vivi to the dinner table, showing her a package of food, "Let's have breakfast, you must be hungry.


Vivi flashed a smile and coughed awkwardly, "Yes,"


Nabil took out the plate and put the package on it, "I'll go back to the office. If there's anything call me right away!"


Vivi nodded obediently.


Nabil turned around and his steps were restrained when Vivi called him, "Nabil, eum, thank you!"


Nabil arched a smile, "Just relax, consider this your own home!"


After that Nabil left.


On the other side. Alula immediately finished filming and wanted to go somewhere.


Considering Arjun's advice, Alula with her red sports car has arrived at the hospital.


Asked the administration politely, "The patient on behalf of Gibran Farhah is in what room, yes,"


A woman of her age opened the note, "Rose number 4, go straight to the right and turn left."


Alula hummed, "Thank you!"


With a slightly thrilling feeling Alula ventured to enter.


"Good morning!" the word sounds forcing.


"Morning!" Mary who was tidying up the food marks turned her head, as soon as her eyes were round seeing the arrival of an uninvited guest. Gibran was already asleep after taking the drug.


"You were the woman yesterday who bought the red sports car right?" Maria scrunched her forehead.


Alula smiled bitterly, "Yes,"


Before Maria asked him what he had come here for, Alula had already prepared for the attack that he had especially on the middle-aged woman in front of him. The woman who had taken her father, to forget her son and wife.


"I came here just to see a husband and wife who was sad about his life."


Mary thought and said harshly, "I don't know you. But you're so arrogant, if this situation revolves around you, then you'll feel where you are at the end of your life!"


Alula laughed mockingly, "Indeed we don't know each other very well, at least I've been relieved by all this."


"Feeling relieved? Heh, you crazy woman! Get the fuck out of here!" expel Maria.


Alula gedeg - just fold your hands in front of your chest. "Congratulations on your lives!"


Then without waiting for Maria's emotional reaction, Alula left immediately.


Alula stepped up with a slight sense of tightness in her heart. Although she had just met, Alula could already guess the character of her stepmother, not seen from among the respectable, and angry women.


Alula leaves the hospital for her husband's office.
