Earth Love Qibla

89

Again and again the surprise comes, should be happy or moping?

*******

Two days later Rere was healthier. The presence of Anggara and Yona 24 hours makes him really feel like he has parents. For the first time Anggara feeds Rere a meal.

The fear of losing her child made the haughty Anggara become weak. His regret overflowed when he saw Rere Dibaw into the ER room. Seeing Rere again realized it felt happier than getting any job project.

Secretly while Rere was in the ER, Anggara regretted everything he had ever forced upon Rere. In fact, his daughter was not happy to marry the man of his choice.

Aggara realized that he had done wrong and hurt many parties. Anggara suddenly remembered on Earth when that afternoon the Sea, Ayesha, Damar and Lila came to visit.

"Where's it going, Re?" ask Sea.

"Better, let alone accompanied by Papi Mami continues." Rere replied alternately staring at Anggara and Yona.

"Allhamdullillah, don't repeat, Re." Sea Vocabulary warns.

"Depending, I don't want to continue this marriage." Rere replied, his face moping.

"Darling, we promised not to discuss this until you are completely healthy and go home." Yona Protests.

"Yes, Son. You don't think about anything first. Keep your body." Anggara.

Rere did not answer, again devouring the apple that was fed by Yona.

After a light chat, the four finally chose to go home. However, just had time to close the door, Anggara had already called back the Sea.

Pirates talk for a while in the hospital canteen. Just two cups of coffee and a glass of avocado juice for Ayesha they ordered.

"I want to apologize to you for my actions that once wanted to fire you" Anggara said as he touched the coffee cup and moved his index finger on the surface of the cup.

"I mean Father?" The sea does not understand.

"I also apologize to your sister, for my selfishness she also endured the pain." Anggara still continues to say full of regrets.

"Yesterday's events scared me of losing Rere," Anggara let out a long sigh, then laughed discordantly and again said "i thought it better to lose all valuable assets than to lose Rere."

The next second Anggara cried without a sound. The sea and Ayesha looked at each other. Wants to rub shoulders but is reluctant.

"Sir, stop. Everything's gone by. My sister must have forgiven you." Said the sea, his hands reflexively rubbed the back of Anggara's hands.

"I've misrepresented Rere's affection" Anggara said. "Rere grew up to be a stubborn and arrogant boy." He added back sobbing, his face until the flood of tears left right. No matter in front of whom she was crying.

"Allhamdullillah Rere is fine, you don't have to cry anymore." Entertain the Sea, his hand now moved holding Ayesha's fingers.

"Once again I'm sorry," Anggara said staring fixed bead of the Sea's eyes.

The sea just nodded. Confused to forgive for what?

Anggara really regretted everything he had done so far to Rere. He even promises to grant Rere's wish to part with Akash.

*****

Elsewhere Akash was lying on Ummi's lap. His heart is berlinang nestapa. Feeling really played. His repulsion at Rere's request was not heard by his wife at all. Instead of talking nicely, Rere kicked Akash out.

"Why so gini anyway, Mi?" his weakness.

"Patience, Honey. God will not give you trials beyond your means." Umi stroked her son's head gently.

"Divorce is hated by God, isn't it?"

"Ummi can only pray for you, the rest leave it to Allah." Answer Ummi.

"If you finally have to divorce, then I've failed Mi?"

"Ummi has always supported you, you remain Ummi's favorite."

Akash sat up, stared at by the shady netra. Ummi smiled back at his son's gaze. Next to his hand was the white cheek of the marble.

"You're a darling, Ummi never considered you a failure. Every human being has their own way of life. Hope your life is happier after this, son."

Next Akash splashed into Ummi's arms, drowning his head in Ummi's chest. Crying without a sound but of course Ummi can find out.

Akash recalled the letter from Earth that was tucked in between the black peci that Earth had gifted him. Handwritten on pink colored paper

*Assallamoallaikum, Brother.

After this try to be a good husband, brother.

Take care of your marriage, because only you can do it. Remember, the sky will not collapse after we part. Brother should be able to accept Rere well. Divorce hated by Allah. Never think of doing it, yeah. I'd be disappointed if you did.

Don't remember me anymore, sin. Hehe.

Happy, Brother.

Earth Hansa*

After reading the letter Akash is determined to bring the message of Earth to life. Even though in his heart the name of the Earth is always engraved. Occupy a place that has been created for him for a long time.

I'm sorry Earth, but I can't fulfill your message. Will you be disappointed?

******

"When I first ate meatballs here, I already knew."

"So why do you want to change my name? make the other santri do the same thing again!" grumbling the Earth, his cheeks bloated chewing meatballs.

"The name Hansa is unique, it's rare to have." Hafidz said, again twisting his eyes.

The earth twists a puffed-up eyeball. Very amused if Hafidz is like that.

"As for the girl you're assessing, what's her fate?"

"I told you I'm less," replied Hafidz again pouring sambal on the meatballs.

"That's not much, it's not good for the stomach!" exclaiming the Earth, reflexes hit the back of Hafidz's hand.

"Cie attention, fear I'm sick huh?"

"That shit sucks, so ge er." Grumpy Earth, lazy again continued to invite Hafidz to talk.

Eating meatballs again until it runs out, there is no conversation until Hafidz finally drove Earth home.

Without coming down from his old antelope car Hafidz resumed his journey to go home.

Sorry, ay.

Hafidz murmured who was somehow addressed to whom.

*****

The morning has been replaced by the afternoon presents a beautiful sky with blue that shade. That afternoon, Rere and his parents were already at the Ummi residence.

The number of people who gathered actually made a silent atmosphere. Gathering in the living room filled the sofa by looking forward to the decision Akash would make.

"So what, Kash?" Anggara asked back.

Akash, who was sitting next to her, said bissmillah in his heart.

"Today with full awareness, I officially filed for divorce from Andrea and handed it back to Mr. Anggara. Rere, today I gave you a talaq. You're not my wife anymore."

Rere certainly greeted him with a big smile. Not answering anything just hugged Yona who was sitting next to him.

Akash felt no pain, it was precisely relief that filled his heart cavity. Today the two men let each other go.

The two families hugged each other and apologized for each other's mistakes before saying goodbye. Also Rere, alternately apologizes to Ummi and Akash.

His feelings are now relieved, let him not know what will happen tomorrow. He must have been happy. No longer depressed and feeling whole with parents who now really care about him.

For the first time Rere feels proud and happy to be the daughter of Yona and Anggara.

After the Anggara family actually went home, Zahra and Ilham took turns apologizing to Akash. Akash did not reply, he instead left the two who were being overcome with regret.

I don't know, Zahra and Ilham Akash are not unforgiving. Akash is just still upset because both of them have hurt the heart of Earth, right?

Where the hell are you? why is the sea back so tightly covering your news from me? why do you seem to be lost to the earth?

*****

Until finally Akash who rode a motorbike arrived at the Sea residence. For the first time after the wedding day, she returned to visit a place that holds a million memories with Earth.

Do you remember the first time we met after 13 years? you were beautiful that day, more beautiful than I ever imagined.

Akash got off the bike and sat on the porch.

*You remember not when I was steaming melons? your cheeks are funny when you chew them. Or when I bring a burger, I like it when you're eating.

Remember I never got angry because you wore a kebaya that showed off part of your shoulder? at that time I said that you would be prettier if you covered your hair*?

Akash knocked on the door, once there was no sight of it being opened. But the sea must be there. Seen from a well-parked car. It's sunday anyway.

*You remember not when we ate porridge and forgot not to bring a wallet? or remember not the last time we ate instant noodles in a pot.

I can't forget everything, Earth. All are clearly recorded. Earth, may I hope again? can I come back next to you? remember I never asked you to keep waiting? are you still there with the same taste? my race remains the same here*.

The second knock on the door with the greeting made the door open from within. The sea culprit, staring in wonder at the figure of Akash who looks chaotic.

The marble-white face looks thin with fine hair that grows around the chin to the jaw. The eyes were sunken with black strokes on each side.

"Kash, how long have you not shaved? when did you start to stay up?"

"Why is that?"

"Lo's so ugly, Kash. I think a prisoner just got out of jail." Answer Sea.

The spoon that Akash felt suddenly evaporated with a sea joke. He pushed the front shoulder of the Sea, entered without excuse and sat in the living room.

You remember not when I wet the floor and told you to clean it? that day you were beautiful, though it stained my eyes.
