Destiny Syakila

eps 128s

The Sarmi residence.

”Iya, I'm her husband, Syakila!” replied Geo flat with his haughty face.

”Is your trust in your wife as big as your fingernails? Do you really love and understand your wife?” ask Rivaldi again.

Geo clenched his jaws, not happy with the man standing before him.

”Stop having a convoluted talk with me!! You don't need to know how much I love him! That's my business!!” Geo laughed mockingly, ” Hah, I know, you will definitely defend that cheap lady!” His gaze sharply glanced at Syakila and turned to look at Rivaldi.

”Geo...what do you mean by that? Who is that cheap woman you mean? In these few minutes you lash out at me and accuse me harshly. What's my fault?” syakila. He's fed up of cheap women's dwarfs by Geo.

”You're still asking what's your fault, Syakila? Are you not self-conscious? A married woman comes home at dawn like this, between other men who are not muhrim! Where did you spend your night last night? Just think again where is your fault, Syakila!?!” Sarmi who spoke Syakila. His anger was clearly visible on his face.

”Syakila don't feel guilty, Mah!” sahut Syakila defended himself. He did not believe even Sarmi, his biological mother who understood and understood him from small to large, so easily believed in the words of Geo who was only a few months into his daughter-in-law.

Sarmi pushes Syakila from her seat until she falls under Geo's feet. The wound on his abdomen opened, the second time the wound was pressed on Geo's knee, the more painful he felt the pain.

”Sarmi!” biah and Johan.

”Mama!” said Hardin.

”Tante!” Rivaldi.

They were surprised to see Sarmi's attitude. Geo pushed back his wheelchair away slightly from Syakila, as Syakila was at his feet grimacing with her stomach. He looked at Syakila with pity.

What the hell's going on? Why is his face so pale? He grimaced holding his stomach. Does his stomach hurt? Why does my heart ache and be sad to see him helpless like this?

Geo shook his head.

No!! I can't be affected by this face-piercing! The pain he felt was definitely because he and this man... Uh. My head hurts thinking about it. Syakila, my heart doesn't want to believe this, my heart...

”Awish your mistake and apologize to your husband!” sarmi said, her voice rising.

”Syakila doesn't feel guilty, Mah. Why should Syakila apologize to Geo?” sahut Syakila quietly, her voice shook with the pain.

Rivaldi approached Syakila, turning Syakila's body to face him. He was worried to see Syakila's trembling hand holding her stomach.

”Stop!! Stop doing that to Syakila! Try telling me where is Syakila's fault!? I want to hear it!!” he said then loudly.

”You really enjoyed your night so much that you protected it. You asked as if nothing had ever happened to you two. Your acting is really good!” Geo paused his speech. ”Say! How much money did you spend to seduce him so he wanted to be on your bed?”

”What?!” syakila and Rivaldi were shocked.

”A..what do you mean, Geo? You accuse me, I sold my body to my own teacher!?” syakila continued to say. He did not believe Geo would accuse him of being that low.

Geo laughs insultingly, ”Hah. Oh, so he's your teacher? So great are you Syakila, even your own teacher you ray__”

Bugh!

Rivaldi's boxing stopped Geo's speech. He could not wait to hear Geo continue to accuse Syakila that no-no.

”Rivaldi!” said Johan, Sarmi, Hardin and Biah together. They are shocked by Rivaldi's sudden beating on Geo.

Geo wiped the blood coming out of the tip of his left lip. ”How dare you hit me! You want to die apparently!!” he said calmly, casually, flatly, yet an aura emanated in his eyes and face was a killing aura.

”What do you think, I'm afraid of you?” sahut Rivaldi challenges Geo.

Syakila shook her head, she knew very well the nature of Geo. When he said to kill, it was very easy for him to do so. Although not with his own hands he killed the man.

”No!! Geo.don't!! Don't hurt my teacher. My teacher is innocent, I am innocent too. You are the one who is guilty here, you have misunderstood with both of us.” he said defending Rivaldi and defending himself. His voice is still shaking.

Geo laughed, yet such a terrible laugh. His gaze was so sharp that it stared at Syakila and Rivaldi alternately.

”Hahahaha...misunderstand?! I'm not a kid you can fool, Syakila!!” he said with great emphasis in every sentence. ”Do you love your teacher, Syakila? What about Sardine? Is Sardin no longer able to give you money so you quickly turn to other men, so that the man can finance your needs?”

Syakila's forehead puckered looking at Geo, ”What? Ge's.. Geo..” Syakila did not continue her words, her tongue seemed to be my tongue to talk further. He shook his head in disbelief, Geo, accusing and addressing him so lowly, likening himself to the woman who sells herself for money, out there.

”I love Syakila!” said Rivaldi answer Geo's question that was thrown for Syakila.

Geo's anger was growing and sharply looked at Rivaldi. Johan, Biah, Hardin, and Sarmi were shocked. They did not expect Rivaldi's words, did Rivaldi really love Syakila? Or just pretend to protect Syakila? Their minds ask.

Shakila himself was surprised, he did not expect Rivaldi, his teacher was provoked by anger and told his true heart, if he loved himself.

”I love Syakila so much, if you don't trust Syakila anymore, then divorce her! I will gladly accept your widow. Your servant means so much in my life!” rivaldi continued.

As she looked at Rivaldi, she knew that her teacher loved her. Does that mean I am in your heart? Benak Syakila asked.

Geo's body trembled, his hands clenched tightly.

Apa? Ceraikan Syakila. Memang ada niat untuk kami berpisah. Tapi, itu tidak akan terjadi! Hatiku tidak menginginkan itu! Aku membutuhkan Syakila dalam hidup ku. Bercerai? Tidak akan!

”Decorate Syakila, after she betrayed me? Hahahaha, don't dream!!” answer then, ”I will make the calculation with you, Syakila!! You have to endure this pain I have received!!” he said again with a loud look at Syakila.

He left the room after he finished speaking. Syakila cried hearing Geo's words. He knew Geo was very rude and very evil as well as cruel.

”If so, let go of my teacher! Don't hurt innocent people. Don't hurt my teacher, he has helped me.” Syakila said slowly.

Geo stopped his steps pushing his wheelchair. He was very unhappy and angry to hear Syakila's words defending the other man in front of him.

”Blood! Brother, are you bleeding?! Your stomach hurt?!” said Hardin.

He was surprised to see blood on the shirt, in Syakila's stomach. Sarmi, Rivaldi, Johan, and Biah look at Syakila's stomach.

”Syakila!” they said they were surprised and worried. Sarmi, Biah, Hardin, and Johan stood up from their seats and approached Syakila, who was in Rivaldi's arms.

”Syakila! What the hell's going on? How can you get a cut on your stomach?” ask Sarmi and Biah together.

The blood? Is the wounded woman Ijan told me about Syakila? And the man who brought Syakila was his teacher?

”How can you get this wound Syakila?” ask Sarmi again. Syakila still did not answer. His head felt dizzy and the pain in his stomach was getting painful.

”Syakila, your face is pale. Your wounds are open. I will treat your wounds.” Rivaldi said worriedly. He carried Syakila's body.

”Tante, where's Syakila's room?” ask him to Sarmi.

”Follow, Aunt.” says Sarmi. He walks past Geo, showing Syakila's room. Rivaldi followed behind Sarmi while holding Syakila. Geo followed behind them. He was worried about Syakila, however, he hid his worries.

Sarmi opens the door to Syakila's room. He was surprised to see the Geo mobile phone that had been broken and split on the floor.

Rivaldi entered the room, he was surprised to see a broken mobile phone on the floor. From the level of damage, the phone is deliberately slammed, thrown very strongly.

Was the person who called Syakila earlier Geo, Syakila's own husband? Did he misunderstand because he heard Syakila's cry when he woke up from his stupor earlier? Or maybe because the one who picked up Syakila's phone was me?

Rivaldi laid Syakila's body on the bed slowly.

”Syakila, does your stomach hurt once?” tanyanya.

Syakila nodded, ”Iya," she replied trembling.

”I sew your wounds only, how?” bargain Rivaldi.

”No, continue your traditional medicine, teacher. I don't want to be sewing.” reject Syakila.

”Hum,” short Rivaldi says. He saw Hardin, ”Hardin, please bring me two plastic packs that I kept on the chair.”

Hardin recalled the two white plastic packages that were near Sarmi, his mother who was kept carelessly by Rivaldi because she was surprised to see Syakila.

”Good, teacher.”

He went ahead, passing Geo who was on the lip of the room door. He went in a hurry. After he found the plastic bag in question, he rushed as quickly as possible back to the room. He went back past Geo who was still in his place, on the lip of the door.

”This, guru.”

He gave the plastic package to Rivaldi. Rivaldi. He opened and removed the contents of the plastic bag. He had smoothed some Madeira Vine leaves for Syakila before he drove Syakila home.

”Syakila, I will open two buttons of your shirt.” permission. Syakila. Sarmi, Johan, Sarmi and Hardin watch as Rivaldi treats Syakila.

Geo, the man was not happy to hear Rivaldi's words, however, he could not do anything. Syakila needs treatment. His hands clenched tightly, his jaw hardened, looking at Rivaldi who opened the two buttons of Syakila's shirt and pulled Shakila's shirt to see the wound in Syakila's stomach.

”Should, you should rest again when you are conscious. Look, your wounds open and bleed again like this. Had you obeyed my words, this wound would not have opened.” Rivaldi's nagging while opening the leaves stuck in Syakila's wound. Syakila was silent, her face still looking pale. Rivaldi looked at Syakila's face.

”Hardin, get me the infusion and infusion hose that's in my car. My car key is next to the plastic package you took earlier.” Rivaldi told Hardin.

Hardin knew that, he saw the key while picking up the plastic package. He nodded and came out of the room.

”Tante, please get me warm water.” the order on Sarmi.

”Let me get it.” says Biah. He held back Sarmi who had turned around to want to get out of the room. Sarmi nodded, Biah rushed to get the warm water.

Biah came back with a basin filled with warm water and a small smooth cloth from the kitchen.

”This,” he handed it to Rivaldi, Rivaldi took it and kept it beside Syakila's body.

”Hold, I will clean your wounds with this warm water, and again clean it using alcohol.” he told Syakila.

Syakila nodded, Rivaldi started to clean up Syakila's wound by slowly pressing down on the wound. Syakila grimaced, grasping her bedsheet.

Geo grimaced to see Syakila like that, wanting to be near Syakila and clutching Syakila's hand, winning her over and strengthening her. But unfortunately, it was only in his imagination, in fact, he was still silent on the lips of the room door.

Sarmi's eyes glazed over seeing Rivaldi seriously taking care of his daughter.

Oh God, forgive me. I've misunderstood Rivaldi and my own son. I should have heard Syakila and Rivaldi's explanation, I had slapped and treated Syakila harshly, I had also accused Syakila and Rivaldi of nothing. Sorry to God. Forgive me, Syakila. Forgive aunt, Rivaldi.

”This is the infusion, guru.” said Hardin while thrusting a plastic package containing his infusion and hose. Rivaldi.

He had cleaned Syakila's wounds with warm water. He put an infusion hose on Syakila's hand.

After the infusion was attached, he again cleaned Syakila's wounds using alcohol. Syakila continued to grimace in pain, Geo always grimaced to see Syakila like that, as if he also felt the pain that Syakila felt.

After cleaning the wound, Rivaldi applied a new Madeira Vine leaf to cover Syakila's wound and bandaged it again.

”It's done,” he said while washing his hands in the warm water he used to clean Syakila's wounds earlier.

”Tante, please Aunt help Syakila replace her clothes. The dirty clothes were thrown away.” he said again to rule Sarmi.

Sarmi nods, he walks towards Syakila's wardrobe, he picks up Syakila's buttoned nightgown.

Rivaldi opens the infusion hose on Syakila's hand, ”Quickly yes, Auntie. After changing his clothes, I just re-attached the infusion.” he said. Sarmi nodded back.

Rivaldi walked out of the room, Hardin, Johan, and Biah followed out, they again sat in the front seat. Geo did not budge from his place, he watched Sarmi change his clothes Syakila. At that time, Geo realized, if Syakila's clothes had been changed with other clothes. The clothes that Syakila used when going out with her were different from the clothes she was wearing today.

Was that man before the one who replaced Syakila's clothes? He had seen my wife's smooth white body, was it tempting at that moment to touch Syakila? The insolent! He took the opportunity when Syakila was helpless.

His hands clenched firmly thinking about it. He again saw Sarmi and Syakila when he heard the sound of sobs from Sarmi. Sarmi had finished changing into Syakila's clothes and was sitting on the side of the bed stroking Syakila's hair. He pushed his wheelchair into the room, approaching Syakila and Sarmi.

”Syakila, sorry Mama. Mama's too emotional, not in control, Mama's already slapped you and treated you harshly. Mama has also accused you.”

”Mama, Mama what are you talking about? Mama's not wrong, Asya's wrong. Asya did not report the existence and condition of Asya to Mama when Asya was conscious. Mama and Geo are not entirely at fault. Asya also goes wrong in this case.” said Syakila.

Sarmi nodded, ”Please dear. There's still so much you want to ask me, son. But, you better rest first. Mama will come back to the front, and have your teacher re-install this infusion.” he said.

Syakila nodded, Sarmi stood up. Before he left Syakila's room, he cleaned Syakila's floor.
