Destiny Syakila

eps 33s

"Sama-sama Om," said Syakila. "Om, Syakila go see sister first, they're taking a bath" she said.

Syakila leaves Anton after hearing his dehem. Syakila went to the small river, to see her sister. His sister is no longer there.

"They, take a shower quickly."

Syakila went to the house, to help them put on clothes. It turned out that they were all done wearing clothes.

"Gee!" Syakila's surprised. "You guys are smart apparently. You guys got your own clothes on?" ask Syakila kindly.

"Yes big brother, we are smooth as a spun child." said Yuli the most sister among them. Ita, Hardin, and Endang nodded in convincing Syakila Yuli's speech was correct.

Syakila chuckled, "Hehehe you are indeed a smart sister, a dear brother to you." said Syakila while stroking her sister's head alternately. Then he kissed their cheeks one by one.

"Why don't grandma and mom come home yet, huh? I followed them." he muttered.

"Sisters, we go to gode yuk, accompany Anton there." invite Syakila. They also went there by running as if racing who first arrived.

"Don't run, Sister! Falling down!" Syakila warned. They are now walking slowly approaching Anton.

Anton who saw the children of Halim who was so cheerful came to approach him, he smiled.

"Come here!" call him. Hardin immediately ran over Anton's lap. Ita, Yuli, and Endang also sat to Anton's left and right.

"Om, Syakila followed mom and grandma first. Mama and grandma have been in the garden for a long time" said Syakila.

Anton was worried. "Where are they in the garden?"

"Lack of knowing also Om, but if it's true Mama picking vegetables should be at the end of the garden there, Om." said Syakila while pointing at the direction of the garden in question.

Anton followed Syakila's direction. "Let Om be the one that follows. You keep your sister here." proposed Anton. Syakila answered him briefly, "Yes Om."

Anton went to the garden that Syakila pointed to, while Syakila poured tea for her sister and told them to eat bananas and boiled yams.

From far away Anton saw Syakila's grandmother sitting on the ground. Anton is increasingly worried, he walks quickly to his grandmother and Sarmi.

"Mom, what's going on?" Anton asked from a distance of one hundred and fifty centi from the grandmother's seat. How shocked Anton was after he approached them, the grandmother holding Sarmi's head and the grandmother crying.

"Sarmi, wake up Sarmi!" Anton tries to wake Sarmi up. "Mom, what's going on?" tanyanya's worried.

Before the mother explained, Anton had carried Sarmi's body, he brought Sarmi's body back home. The grandmother followed behind Anton.

Anton laid Sarmi's weak body on the gode-gode floor. Syakila and her sister were all shocked.

"Om, Mama why? Grandma, Mama why, Grandma?" Syakila asked tremblingly.

"Your mama's okay, don't panic!" Anton calms Syakila.

"Mama, wake up Mah!" Syakila tried to wake her mother. "Grandmother, what happened to Mama?" Syakila asked worriedly to the grandmother.

"Grandmother also did not know, Grandma found your mother was lying on the ground" said the grandmother explained.

While Anton, he is still trying to resuscitate Sarmi. He put his index finger under Sarmi's nose.

"There's still his breath, but it's very weak. Your mom just fainted." Anton explains. "Is there eucalyptus oil or balm?" ask her to Syakila and the grandmother.

"There is, Syakila there is balm." Syakila said. Without being told again, Syakila ran to the house and took her bag she took the balm that was always stored there.

Then with a quick run he gave the balm to Anton. "It's Om, the balm." said Syakila as she thrust the balm she held onto Anton.

Anton took the pillow in the gode-gode and put Sarmi's foot on the pillow. Anton took the balm and rubbed the balm on the bottom of Sarmi's nose, temple, Sarmi's neck and Anton rubbed the balm on Sarmi's soles and massaged it slowly.

Anton continued to rub the balm again, until Sarmi finally realized, and opened his eyes. He was confused to see his children who had sad faces looking at him.

"Sarmi, are you conscious?" ask Anton still worried. Sarmi saw Anton.

"Anton, are you here?" instead of answering Anton's question, Sarmi asks back to him.

"If Anton's son isn't here, who's gonna help you, son! Mother waited for someone to pass by and ask for her help, but no one passed by." the mother answered Sarmi's question to Anton still crying.

"Sarmi, what's wrong with you, son? You make me worry." said the mother again while wiping away the rest of her tears.

"Sorry Mom, Sarmi has made me worried." Sarmi regretted.

"Once again, Sarmi apologizes mother, Sarmi has no intention of making mother worried. Really!" sarmi assured.

"Hum" said the mother. His mother doesn't talk anymore. He sat beside Syakila.

Sarmi wants to wake up, but because he is still weak, he still has trouble waking up. Anton finally helps Sarmi wake up slowly and leads him to sit down. Anton told Syakila to make tea for her mother.

"Sayakila, make some warm tea for your mama."

"Yes Om" said Syakila. He immediately went to make tea for his mother.

"Why did you faint? What the hell happened to you?" Anton asked again.

"I just felt dizzy, my head was heavy. Maybe because I'm sleep deprived last night." Sarmi.

"What are you thinking?" ask Anton again.

Sarmi lowered her head, "Nothing. Maybe I'm just exhausted." she replied lying.

Anton knew Sarmi's answer was a lie, but he nodded. She knew Sarmi would not tell her what she was going through.

"This is Mah tea, Mama drink first while warm" said Syakila while giving a glass of warm tea to her mother.

"Thank you Syakila," Sarmi took her tea and drank it to the end with two sips. Then he kept an empty glass on the floor.

"Thank you Anton, you helped me" he told Anton.

"Hum, I suggest you don't think much. It's garden! Who would know if something happened to you? I'm lucky to have stopped by here today, otherwise! I don't know what's gonna happen to you! If anything happens to you, what about your children? Especially your husband who is far away. So take care of yourself! For your son and husband!" anton said.

"Hum, thank you, Anton." said Sarmi. "Em, what's your purpose for stopping by here?" tanyanya diverted the conversation.

Anton knew that if Sarmi switched their conversation, "I stopped by just to let you know, if the next three days I'm going back to town A. Perhaps, there's something you want to leave for your husband." explains Anton telling his purpose.

"Yes, I'd like to leave him a letter. Syakila will bring the letter to your home the day you leave." said Sarmi. "And please! Don't tell this to Halim! I don't want her to feel overwhelmed there after hearing me pass out." Sarmi asked Anton deeply.

Anton was speechless, he looked at Sarmi's shady eyes. He could see the fear in his eyes if Halim knew this. "Alright, I won't tell Halim this, but you have to take good care of yourself." Anton resignedly asked.

"Hum, I'll take good care of myself." Sarmi agreed. Anton nodded in response.

"In that case, I'm saying goodbye now!" anton said as he stood up from his seat.

"Why rush? Not drinking tea first?" Sarmi holds Anton and offers him a drink.

"I still have business to take care of. I've had tea and even finished the boiled banana." answered Anton honestly with a clumsy feeling. "Now, I'm going first!" he said goodbye again.

This time Sarmi doesn't hold Anton anymore. Anton immediately left after saying goodbye to his grandmother and Sarmi's children.

"How are you feeling now?" ask the mother, still worried.

"Mother, Sarmi is fine. Sarmi's head isn't dizzy anymore." Sarmi replied reassuring the mother.

Sarmi stood up from her seat, the mother holding her back. "Where are you going?"

"Sarmi wants to cook Ma'am, if not cook, how about lunch?" sarmi said gently.

"You rest, your body is still weak, let the mother cook."

"But Ma'am?" Sarmi.

"Nothing but, I'm doing it!" kekeh the mother.

Shakila stood in front of her mother and grandmother, she said softly to her mother and grandmother. "Well, Grandma, let Syakila do the cooking. Mama just fucked up here, and Grandma's still here looking after Mama."

Sarmi and the grandmother did not speak anymore. They obey the words of Syakila. Without protesting. Syakila also started cooking.

He also picked fresh vegetables and cut them, then he cooked them. Their lunch is now served. Although very simple but for them this food is the most delicious.

"July, just slowly eat it, son! No one's gonna fight with you." Sarmi teaches Yuli who eats in a hurry and adds more of her favorite foods.

"Hehehe, yes Mah, sorry." said Yuli with a cry. Sarmi shook her head to see the funny behavior of her son. They went back to eating, enjoying Syakila's cooking.
