First Love of Ustadz
Chapter 46 Miscarriage?
"Son Ustad, remember that promise back then, right?" ask Rhea's mother.
"Promise?" ask Ustad Fariz.
"The other day, when Mom was at Rhea's grandmother's house," Mother replied, reminding her of that time.
Ustad Fariz lowered her head, she realized maybe her mistake was already inexcusable by Father and Mother Rhea. Because she had promised to take care of Rhea and now Rhea was about to miscarry due to her negligence.
"Yes Ma'am I remember," said Ustad Fariz still lowered his head while closing his eyes.
"How now?" asked Bu Ratih firmly.
"Sorry Mom, sorry for my negligence and for something like this to happen" Ustad Fariz said.
"Don't apologize to Mom, but keep your promise" said Mother full of affirmation.
"Sorry Mom, please give me another chance. Please don't separate me from Rhea and the child who is still in her womb" Ustad Fariz said and her gaze filled with plea.
"Mother..don't blame Rhea mom's husband... Rhea is guilty, Rhea is not careful. Rhea's husband had forbidden Rhea from working too hard, Rhea who was reckless Ma'am," Rhea approached her mother and knelt in front of her Mother.
"Darling, stand up you shouldn't do this. Let me do it because I'm guilty" Ustad Fariz helped Rhea stand up and she knelt in front of Rhea's mother.
"Bie..," Rhea held her husband's shoulder to help him stand up but Ustad Fariz would not stand up.
"Udah.alah, you guys are even playing a false drama. I just want to ask you how the solution is so it doesn't happen again like this?" Mother was astonished by the behavior of this son and daughter-in-law.
"You sit down" now Father is speaking.
Ustad Fariz and Rhea sat back where they had been. Umi Sarifah and Ustad Jaki just kept quiet to see the family talking because they had told me everything that happened to Father and Mother Rhea.
Not without reason Umi Sarifah and Ustad Jaki told Father and Mother Rhea. They told me because Rhea's father and mother had learned from Bik Darmi that Rhea was hospitalized for bleeding.
Rhea's mother wanted to take Rhea back to her home to be cared for until giving birth, but Umi Sarifah and Ustad Jaki knew that Rhea and Ustad Fariz would not want to be separated even if only for a few days, therefore Umi Sarifah and Ustad Jaki tell the truth to Father and Mother Rhea.
"Rhea promised you would be more careful or Rhea would not mind not to fall again" Rhea said in a pleading tone.
"It's not because you're careless Rhea, it's because of that guy-"
"Sorry Mom, Dad, can we talk three outside?" Ustad Fariz paused Mother's words.
"Why Bie?" rhea asked in astonishment as she turned her head and held her husband's hand.
Ustad Fariz smiled and shook his head. "Whoa, honey here."
Then Ustad Fariz took Bu Ratih and Mr. Adrian to his office room at Pondok Pesantren Al-Mukmin.
Ustad Fariz invited Pak Adrian and Bu Ratih to come in and sit inside, then he told me about his decision. Mr. Ratih and Mr. Adrian were shocked by Ustad Fariz's decision, but it is undeniable that they felt relieved to hear it.
They hope that Ustad Fariz as their son-in-law can look after and make his daughter happy.
After that they discussed everything they wanted to ask Ustad Fariz as his son-in-law.
Rhea walked back and forth, she was anxious because she was happy to live with her parents, but she did not want to be separated from her husband.
"Sit down, calm yourself down" Umi Sarifah grabbed Rhea's shoulder and led her to sit down.
"But Umi-"
"Just trust your husband" Umi Sarifah again calmed Rhea.
"You better not think about anything else, leave everything to your husband," now Ustad Jaki who spoke after just now just silently observed.
Ustad Jaki's task here is now to guard Umi Sarifah and Rhea from Mirna, as Ustad Fariz is talking to both of Rhea's parents. And it wasn't Ustad Fariz who asked for it, it was all his own initiative to prevent anything else that might happen.
"Assalamu'alaikum's chat..."
"Wa'alaikumussalam...."
"Bie..," Rhea greeted her husband and approached him.
Ustad Fariz smiled at his wife who looked worried about him. Then he greeted his wife who approached him by extending her hand.
"You're splitting up for a little while already like a week apart" said Mother who just sat in the guest chair.
"Ah Mother, Rhea's husband with Rhea's mother, yes Mom, yes... yes, yes." Pinta Rhea whined while moving her husband's hand.
"You want to be a mother like a child" Mother told Rhea.
"Biarin, Mother is Rhea's mother, so you can whine with Mom," said Rhea annoyed.
"Udah yuk sat down first," Ustad Fariz invited Rhea to sit in the guest chair.
Rhea did not want to be separated from her husband. Until he sat his hand was still coiled in the arms of her husband and his seat was very tight, almost not far apart.
"Mom, it looks like your son is scared to be separated. Look at it, until it does not want to take off his hands," said Mr. Adrian who is Rhea's father.
"Keep, how's the good dong?" Mom tried to tease Rhea.
"Emmm. gakunuuu..," Rhea pressed her hand against her husband's arm, making everyone in the room laugh.
"What the hell is all that laughing about?" Rhea was annoyed to see everyone laughing at her.
"You're funny darling," Ustad Fariz pinched Rhea's nose in a fit of anxiety.
"Assalamu'alaikum..," a female voice sounded from outside the door.
"Wa'alaikumussalam..," answered everyone in the room and turned to the direction of the source of the voice.
"Myrna" said Umi Sarifah.
The atmosphere that was crowded and full of laughter suddenly quiet after Mirna entered the living room.
"Rhea are you healed?" mirna asked suddenly and she was still confused looking for a seat, because the remaining seats were only near Ustad Jaki.
"Remain again anyway," said Ustad Jaki lirih but can be heard by everyone because the room is quiet and there is no sound.
"Eh Ma'am, sit here Ma'am, join us" Rhea smiled and waved her hand.
"There is no place here" Ustad Jaki said in an annoyed tone.
"Ustad!" Rhea exclaimed and glared at Ustad Jaki, but Rhea's eyes were closed by Ustad Fariz's hand and confronted him.
"What the hell is this?" rhea asked as she opened her husband's hand that closed her eyes.
"Udah don't look at him, it's his pleasure" Ustad Fariz said.
"Rhea I'm sorry I didn't get to the hospital. After that, no one told me" said Mirna.
"The reason" said Ustad Jaki wirily and that made him get a small pat from Umi Sarifah on his trunk.
"Father Ma'am," Rhea replied with a smile.
"What is your village? Did you miscarry?" ask Mirna impatiently.
"Myrna!" the Ustad Fariz.
