Half of the Heart belongs to Sahla

Chapter 34

"Why does the disease appear to***n all ?" 

Sahla opens one of those articles. And how surprised he was after reading the contents of the article.

"Innalallahi.it is impossible." The denial. Then he read a few more articles, hoping for different information. But he found no different information.

"Dad! What else is ?" 

Suddenly we heard Bima's voice ask. Sahla was very surprised, she hurriedly closed her phone. 

"There's nothing, brother." Sahla replied rather excitedly, but as much as possible she acted as calmly as possible.

Sahla's answer made Bima frown. Bima continued to walk towards Sahla. Gelagat Sahla made him suspicious. "What's the first ?" Ask Bima again.

"Nothing else." 

"Have you cleaned it ?"

"Hmmm.." Sahla then shook her head. Then with a quick move, he got up. "I'm going to the bathroom first."

"Bring Hp ?" Ask Bima wonder.

Sahla stopped her steps. Then look at his hand which turned out to still hold tightly HP.

Sahla smiled shyly. "Yes, forgot." Then Sahla put her HP on the dresser. 

"May Bima not suspect me." Say it in the heart. Sahla went into the bathroom. After she finished cleaning up, Sahla came out. She found her husband lying against the wall.

"Tumben once Bima's sister slept in the corner." Sahla said slowly. But Sahla was immediately surprised when she found her HP had changed position. Though just now she put her HP carelessly, but now her HP lined up neatly with her husband's HP.

"Hopefully Bima Brother does not open my HP." Say it again in the heart.

Slowly Sahla took her HP and opened it. There is nothing to suspect from the contents of his cellphone. He was only afraid that Bima knew that he was looking for his illness.

Sahla looked at her husband. "Son, do you really have that disease ?" Ask Sahla in my heart. Sahla then shook her head, denying all her assumptions. "May not be right." Lirih. Then he chose to sleep. 

***

All night, Sahla can't sleep well. His mind was fixed on the articles he read. Sometimes she glanced at her husband who was in deep sleep.

"Do I have to ask directly ?" 

"Does Bima want to be honest ?"

"Ouch! What should I do ? I'm really curious."

"What if it turns out that Bima really has the disease ?"

"No, no. I hope it's not right."

There are still many other questions and denials that continue to swarm his mind, until finally he is tired by himself.

"Dad! Deck! Wake." Bima awakens Sahla by slowly stretching Sahla's body.

"Dad! Wakes up. Adhan is dawn." 

Sahla squirms, rubbing her sore eyes. 

Sahla felt she had just fallen asleep, but it turned out that the dawn adhan had reverberated. Sahla got up slowly. His head was heavy, as a result of last night not being able to sleep well.

"Why ? Sick ?" Bima asked who kept paying attention to the listless looking Sahla.

Sahla shakes. "Still sleepy" replied Sahla.

Bima smiled, then gently rubbed Sahla's head. "Shew first, you can go to sleep later."

"Yes." Yeah." Sahla then got out of her bed and walked to the bathroom. After he finished taking ablution, he also called his alphabet and performed shajuh prayer.

Sahla is still sleepy, and she goes back to sleep. I don't know, he doesn't think too much about the challenges for pregnant women.

Tok…

Mrs Ratih who was in the kitchen rushed towards the front door after hearing a loud knock.

Mrs Ratih gasped at the arrival of two large-bodied men.

"This is true of Mr Bima's house ?" Ask one of them.

"I.Yes." Stuttered, Madam answered him. "What do you need ?" With a little fear, Madam Ratih asked the intention of their arrival.

"We have a need with Bapak Bima. Can we meet ?"

Mrs Ratih hesitated. "A little while, I'll call you first. Please sit down." Mrs Ratih let her two guests sit on the front porch. 

Sahla awoke to hear the sound of her mother-in-law calling Bima. Then hurry to open the door.

"Mothers. What's up, ma'am ?" 

"Where's the five, Neng ?"

"Bima's brother is still sleeping. Mother why ?" Sahla was amazed by the look on her mother-in-law's face that looked scared.

"There are guests who nyari Bima. Two guys, big body. I'm terrified to see it."

"It's 6 in the morning, there's a guest. Who's Ma'am ?"

"Mom doesn't know either. Does Bima have a debt to a loan shark, Neng ?"

Sahla is gawking. "Rentenir ?"

"Yes, I'm afraid that people come who like to collect it."

Sahla shakes. "Know Sahla Kak Bima never borrowed money, Mom."

"What's up Neng, Ma'am ?" Suddenly Bima was behind Sahla. Bima wakes up to hear the voice of Sahla and her mother.

"Someone's looking for the big brother in front." Answer Sahla.

"Who ?"

The two shook their heads.

Then Bima walked forward, followed by Sahla and Bu Ratih.

Bima greeted both of his guests.

"I'm Bima. What's the matter, sir?" Ask Bima politely.

"Our boss wants to meet with you. Please come with us." Answer one of them.

Bima frowned in wonder. "If you can tell who the boss you mean ?"

"Mother can come with us first."

"If I refuse to go ?"

"We'll take it forcibly."

Bima. "All right, I'll come with you."

Hearing her husband's approval, Sahla can no longer remain silent. From then on he just listened.

"Sister, we don't know them. Brother don't come." Prevent Sahla. She was afraid that they were bad people and would harm her husband.

"Attent." Bima said to both guests. Then bring his wife and mother into the house.

"Sister. Anyway Big brother can't come with them. They're like bad guys. Their looks are scary." Sahla said after they were inside the house. His heart was so troubled to see the appearance of the two guests.

"Sir. Don't say that." 

"Mother is also afraid of Bim, look at their appearance. Moreover, they'll force you if you don't want to come." Mrs Ratih feels the same way as Sahla.

"Mom, Deck. Pray that Bima will return home healthy and safe. And nothing bad happened." Bima tried to calm the two women who were in front of him.

"Aren't you afraid or suspicious of them ?" Ask Mrs Ratih.

"Of course I'm afraid, ma'am. But Bima has to come with them. Bima is also curious about what things require Bima to come with them. There must be something important."

"alright. Take care of yourself." Said Mrs Ratih.

"Sister." Sahla shook her head, her heart still did not allow Bima to come along.

Bima holds Sahla's hand. "Sir. Believe the same brother. Nothing bad will happen." Bima once again calmed his wife's heart.

"alright. When the business is done, hurry home."

"Of course, Brother will be home soon. Brother go first." Then Sahla mcc**m Bima and Bima's hand replied with a tweet**m his forehead. Not forgetting that he also touched his mother.

Bima came out of the house and approached the two guests who were still loyal waiting for him. "Sorry sir, if you wait a long time."

"It's okay. Let's sir, we're going now." The two men only nodded as they passed through Sahla and Bu Ratih. Followed by Bima who walked behind him. They each ride their own motorbike.

"Where am I riding ? Or do I bring my own motor ?" Ask Bima.

"Please, you come with me." Her speech. Only one of these people had interacted with Bima, while the other had never said anything. Maybe his job is just to accompany him.
