God's Choice of Mate

Inner turmoil

My leg was sprained and swollen.

It hurts so much

I slowly removed the high heels from my feet.

I feel better however, sultry and uncomfortable with the wedding dress I wear.

Mrs Riska drove very fast without saying anything.

He looks very angry.

I just kept quiet and looked at him sometimes.

"Everything.disrupted, messy," he yelled while hitting the steering wheel of his car.

Hearing her words I was shocked.

Why is Ma'am Riska like this, I'm in my heart.

Every now and then he stared at me sharply and felt the cynicism I felt.

But I don't want to think bad.

Mm-mmmm.....

The sound of the car engine is going very fast.

Prakkkk....

The Riska's car hit something.

"Astaghfirullah," I cried out in surprise and fear.

My chest was pounding almost when we had an accident.

Thank God, God still takes care of me and Ma'am Riska I said in my heart with a long sigh.

I looked at Mrs Riska's face and made sure she was okay.

"Isn't it okay?," I asked.

However, Madam Riska just kept silent without turning her head towards me.

He was petrified with a facial expression that was still very upset and angry.

"Mbak, if Mbak is tired do not need to be forced to drive.We stop for a moment just mbak so Mbak more calm,"saranku.

But, Mr. Riska does not like my opinion.He is still wrapped in emotion.

"You shut up Ran!, "he's rude.

My heart flinched hearing Madam Riska's harsh words to me.

As far as I know, Ms. Riska has never spoken rudely, she is a gentle and kind figure that I have known all along.

But I don't know what happened suddenly his temper turned grumpy and emotional.

"Sorry madam, Rani didn't mean.

"Have been silent Ran.If you still talk continue you better get down here alone!," he said rudely and cynically looking at me.

Mm-mmmm.....

The car drove back.

Ms. Riska and I arrived at the Suprapto Family residence.

Ms. Riska rushed down the car door without greeting me.

He closed the car door very hard and hard.

I was shocked at him too.

I slowly got out of the car.

"Auwww," I said withstanding the pain in my leg.

I walked in limped into the house.

Not how long Mbak Riska out of the house with something and then walked towards the car without greeting me.

I called him "Mr..Where are you going?, "many of me.

However, he did not reply and then left with his car.

I just look at the speed of the car that passed away.

I took a short breath, then went into the house with a limp.

Bik Siti the housekeeper at the Suprapto family residence saw me the limped path immediately approached me and helped me.

"Son Rani why?"he asked worriedly.

"Nothing bi, most just sprained," I said while holding my leg.

"Try Bik Siti see yes son," he asked.

I nodded in order to allow it, "Yes Bik," I said.

"Yes Allah nak Rani, it's swollen.This tasteo.Bibi get a sprain drug later on dabbed if not treated later nak Rani ndak can walk," he said while taking ointment.

While waiting for Bik Siti to take the medicine.Slowly I walked towards my room.

I feel so tired of wearing this dress.

Bik Siti finished taking the ointment and helped me to my room.

He gently applied the ointment on both fingers until my sprained ankle.

"Take aunty massage yes son Rani.Bibi can kok massage sprain," he said.

I don't feel good bothering him,"eghh.nak need Bik,ngerepotin Bik Siti.Quite ointment aja Bik," said I.

"It's okay son.Bik Siti does not feel bothered," he said while pulling my feet slowly and then massaging it.

"Thank you Bik" I said, looking at him.

"Yes, we're both."

"Surely son Rani does not need to stay here," he said suddenly.

"Indeed why Bik?,"I was surprised and curious.

"Hmmmm.beginny boy...."

However, Bik Siti's speech was interrupted by the sound of my mobile phone ringing aloud.

Bik Siti helped me pick up a mobile phone that was far away from me.So she gave it to me.

Incoming call from Wirda writing on mobile phone screen.

"What's Wirda calling me?" I said slowly.

I saw in the missed call from Wirda twenty times.

My heart is getting anxious.

Then I picked up the phone from Wirda.

"Assalamu'alaikum, halo Wir," I said.

However, Wirda did not return my greetings.

I heard her sobs and kept calling my name.

"Huhuhhu.....Ran.huhuhuhu....Rani,"while crying sting.

I was anxious and worried to hear Wirda's voice like that.

"Hello Wir! Wirda!what's the matter Wir?, "you're panicking.

"Iy ..iya Wir, in my God I was there.You sent me the hospital address yes.You do not cry on Wir,isticfar.Yang calm yes.Wait for me Wir, I'll be there soon," said I tried to calm him.

"Yes.iya Ran,huhuhu...huhuhu.

Kututut...............

Phone disconnected.

"Why Rani?" asked Bik Siti.

"My friend Wirda, who used to come here, Bik, had a sudden heart attack and is in a critical condition right now" I said anxiously.

"Oh Allah," said Bik Siti while holding her chest.

"Yaudah Bik, Rani wants to pray and change clothes and go straight to the hospital to where Papa Wirda is treated," I said while standing slowly.

"But son Rani's legs still hurt right.What's nothing son?," said Bik Siti worried.

"Allah is okay Bik.Alhamdulillah after massage and ointment smear the same Bik Siti pain slightly reduced," I replied.

Bik Siti looked at me.

"Be careful, son Rani," she said, holding my cheek.

"Yes Bik, thank you Bik" I said, holding his hand.

 

Arriving at the hospital I immediately looked for Wirda.

From a distance I saw Wirda sitting with her mother, she leaned on her mother's shoulder while crying.

I walked fast despite being trained.

"Assalamu'alaikum aunt," I said.

"Wa'alaikumussalam," answered Mama Wirda while looking at me.

Then I kissed Mama Wirda's hand.

"Rani," he said as he stroked my head.

Wirda looked at me with tears.

His face was swollen and his eyes were swollen.

Not long after the sister called Aunt to see a doctor who would explain about her husband's condition.

"Ran, Auntie stay a long time.Tante tipped Wirda for a while."

"Yes Auntie" I replied.

Not long ago the aunt went with the nurse to the doctor's room.

In the meantime, I sat down next to Wirda and tried to calm her down.

Huhuhuhuhu.....

Huhuhhu......

Wirda's crying voice grew louder.

"Wir,istighfar," I said, gently rubbing his shoulder.

"Ran..," said Wirda, wiping her tears.

"Yes," I replied.

"Papaku..falling sick ..all ..because of Reno's sister," Wirda said stammering with a raucous voice.

My heart flinched at the instant of hearing Wirda's words.

"How can Wir?, "how can I.

"What they can't do Ran.With the money and power they have.They destroy my papa business in an instant Ran.They slandered my papa."

"But why?why would they do that?they're good people I've known him all along."

This time Wirda looked at me sharply and wiped her tears back.

"Well, they're all the bad guys Ran," Wirda said angrily.

I listened to Wirda speak.

"Ran, all this time they pretended to be nice to you.You know what they did to Kak Roy's family.Sama as they did to me Ran.

It's all to keep you away from Roy.

To make Kak Reno's plan go well.

It doesn't change Ran.

Brother Reno is still like a haughty, evil and cruel man.

He was willing to do everything he could to get revenge.

To hurt you Ran," Wirda said at length.

I was struck by lightning hearing Wirda's words.

Tongue whimpering.

My chest feels tight and tired.

"Ran, from that I beg you to leave the house and stay away from them" said Wirda holding my shoulder.

But I'm not flinching.

Is it true what Wirda said, my inner heart.

"Now all of our assets and valuables are no more Ran.I....I am worried about the condition of papa.How about the cost of care papa?huhuhuhuhu...huhuhu.

"No Wir..in Shay Allah nothing bad will happen to your papa.We pray to Allah asking for your papa's healing yes.And later I will talk to Reno's family about this matter."

"Don't Ran.

"I'm afraid anything will happen to you Ran."

"In shay Allah is not Wir, there is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala who will always guard and protect me Water, so you do not need to worry yes," I said to calm him.

Not long after that, Mama Wirda came.

"Oh ..ya Wir, I bought a drink for Auntie and you used to be.Let me come back again."

Wirda nodded.

I also walked slowly while enduring the pain in my legs.

But my mind overcame his pain.

What is really going on, God?

Help me and show me the way of truth.

Give me guidance, O God, inwardly.

And accidentally from a distance I saw Ms Riska , Bu Sri ,Pak Sugeng and Grandpa at this hospital.

They went into the room.

That must be Reno's place in the care of.

I want to know his condition, my inner self.

The door is not tightly closed and not in the lock.Maybe they forgot to close it.

I heard their voices talking and tucked into laughter.

I listened to their conversation.
