Devotion of Love

It was raining that afternoon....

It rained this afternoon so hard. Lightning flashes struck accompanied by the rumbling of lightning sounds. It is as if the heavens are glorifying the greatness of ALLAH SWT. Rainwater spills without being able to be dammed again. Give life to dry creatures. Rain falls with his grace, as long as we are able to thank him.

Duuuaraarr

"Asthgfirullahaladzim!" lirih. I held my chest tight, my body began to tremble. Ever since I was a child I was afraid of the sound of lightning, a phobia I wanted to heal. I'm curled up under the covers, usually I'm not alone. But make Asih come home since noon. Mr. Karim's condition was not good, so I asked him to go home.

The sound of cars stopping in my yard. I rushed down, hoping that Mas Agam would come. When I opened the door, my eyes were perfectly rounded. I saw both parents of Mas Agam. There is fear of meeting them. But I have to go see them, whatever they want to say.

I open the door slowly, I bring them an umbrella. After being in the house. The two old men, just shut up. I looked at the gaze as usual, cold without any warmth.

I'm trying to find some conversation material. Once they have answered, then ended. I was confused as to what to behave!. The rain outside is very heavy. We were silent for a long time with our thoughts. Almost an hour they wait, usually mas Agam already home. Maybe because the rain was too heavy, Mas Agam decided to go home late.

Mom and Dad decided to go home. They said to have Mas Agam meet them immediately. I drove them out of the house. Incidentally very beautiful, mas Agam came. His car entered the yard shortly after his father and mother left the house.

"Dad, Mas Agam has arrived. Wait a minute, we better go inside." I said, father nods slowly. Mas Agam got out of the car, along with Annisa.

"Dad, who's Agam coming home with?"

"His co-worker might!"

I could only stand by and watch everything that happened. Mas Agam went home with Annisa. I saw a sincere smile from my mother, I saw the eyes of my father twinkle. Annisa's closing in on us. He kissed the backs of the hands of both parents.

"Dad, it's been a while. Sorry I just got home! It was raining too much, so Agam decided to wait for the rain to subside!" said mas Agam, father nodded with a smile.

"Agam, who is he?" said mother.

"He's one of my employees. It just so happened that he was on a motorcycle, because it was raining too hard I brought him home together!"

"Whose name are you? , so beautiful and polite." said the mother, Annisa smiled.

"I'm Annisa, RT's daughter. It happened to be very heavy rain, so I hitchhiked Mr. Agam."

"It's okay? , it's not good to let a beautiful woman like you go home alone. After all your house is in line with Agam, so as a superior. Must take you home. Right dad, what did you say?"

"Hmmm!"

"Girl, mom and dad there's a need for you. Why don't we go in first?" said father, mas Agam nodded.

"Annisa, you must be cold. We better get in first. Make your body warmer!" invite mother.

"Let's go, we're in!" said mas Agam.

When everyone walks into the house. Zahro ran towards me in a hurry. Maybe there was something very urgent, even Zahro ran towards me without using an umbrella.

"Mbak Tika, Mr. Karim drop. His body was convulsing, making Asih cry continuously. What do we do?" he said with breaths.

"We're taking him to the hospital. I'll call Rizal's doctor, ask him to wait for us at the hospital. You go home, tell the Asih I'll drive her!" I said, Zahro nodded. I ran into the house, trying to get the car keys.

"Darling, what's going on?"

"Dad, I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you. Husband dropped Asih, I have to take him to the hospital."

"Mother, sorry Tika has to go!"

"Mbak Annisa, please accompany old man mas Agam. They are more comfortable with Annisa. Sorry to bother you, thanks!"

"Darling, it's raining so hard. Let me drive. Are you afraid of lightning! Let me drive."

"Darling, I'll see them tomorrow. It was raining so hard, let me drive you to the hospital." she said again, I shook my head.

"The task of mas Agam is not to drive them. The obligation of Mas Agam must put father and mother first. If Mas Agam keeps pushy, I won't drive them. It's up to you!"

"Darling, it's my duty to put parents first! But my job is always to take care of you!"

"Well, I'm not leaving!"

"Darling, don't be stubborn!"

"I just need your permission, not your protection!" I said softly, his hand holding me away.

"The longer you hold me, the longer Mr. Karim gets to the hospital. There is no reason to demand rights and obligations. A person's health is at stake!"

"Let Tika go Agam, after all it's to help people. We didn't come all the way to go. Tika is an adult, she can take care of herself! Dad, sure he'll be all right!"

" I'm sorry, I was picked up. I have to go home, assalammualaikum!" pamit Annisa's.

"Glamma!" our sahut simultaneously.

"Dear, I beg you!" the door again, I was silent. Kuremas hijabku, I have to help make Asih. But mas Agam permission is very much needed, I am a wife who must go with the permission of the husband. Agam and I were both silent, I felt the grip come off.

"Go!"

"Thank you!" I said softly, I rushed to the room to pick up the bag. Then ask for the car keys from Mas Agam. I gently kiss the hands of the three of them, immediately I pick up Bik Asih and Mr. Karim. Too long time wasted.

After picking up Bik Asih and her husband. I'll go to the hospital immediately. Doctor Rizal I called. He's probably waiting for me at the hospital. For about an hour my car split the city streets. Penetrating the rain. When I got to the hospital, I went straight to the IGD.

"Well, what happened to Mr. Karim? Isn't his condition alright!" doctor Rizal said, I shook my head weakly. I do not know why Mr Karim can relapse? , make Asih cry continuously. Zahro tried to calm him down.

For almost two hours I waited anxiously. Doctor Rizal never gave any news. Before long the door finally opened, I saw doctor Rizal come out. Immediately I ran to him. Anxiety filled my entire brain.

"How is Mr Karim? , do whatever it takes for his recovery. If hospitalization is required, then do it!"

"The condition was critical, but it was stable. I still have to wait a few hours. Can only be sure to hospitalize or not. But looking at the initial condition, it might be hospitalization!" sally, I nodded.

Sayub heard the sound of adzan magrib, I asked Rizal's doctor for permission to pray magrib. I leave the Asih to Zahro, we will take turns praying magrib.

The hospital is full. I was at the last shaf. The melodious voice of the priest leading the prayer, able to mingle my heart. The old priest of prayer I never heard. If I hadn't come alone, I might have thought of this magrib prayer priest.

Finished performing the magrib prayer, I rushed towards the IGD room. I'll take turns looking after Mr. Karim.

"Aika!"

"Doctor Rizal, why haven't you gone home yet? Shouldn't the clock be over. Mr. Karim's condition is fine!"

"No doctor is willing to leave his patients in critical condition!"

"I believe Doctor Rizal is the best!" my god, he smiled. We walked to the IGD room. The awkward atmosphere between us started to warm up, we joked and laughed together. Apparently behind his white coat, stored a humorous and warm figure.

"Laughter and laughter I haven't seen in a long time!" someone's inner.
