Hijab And Waiting

Mournfully

Diana was hospitalized for a week. Hafiz asked the doctor for permission to bring Diana back home. Seeing Diana's condition that has begun to improve. Oma and Mama Hani have returned to their home. Hafiz brought Diana back to her hometown. Return to the home they left behind. Of course with the help of aunt Farida and her family. The journey that took 4 hours of travel was enough to make Diana feel very tired sitting in the car. Hafiz immediately put Diana's head into her lap.

"Sister, sorry dad. Because Ana is sick, we have to go back home. Brother's job is also how's sister?" Diana said with great sadness.

"Darling, don't talk like that anymore. Ilove you. I'll do anything for your recovery" Hafiz said, trying to convince Diana.

"Silver..., sick gini doang talk her like Ana nih is very sick," said Diana made Hafiz speechless.

Diana began to close her beautiful eyes on Hafiz's lap. The journey takes 4 hours. Then they got home.

Hafiz's cell phone rang, he immediately picked it up. It appears on the screen that the name My Mom.

"Assalamualaikum ma," Hafiz said for the first time.

"Waalaikumsalam, how's your wife doing? Mama heard from Aunt Farida, she said your wife is sick" she said.

"Yes ma, but this is home from the hospital. Thank God" said Hafiz.

"The wife of the disease is so how can take care of you well. Well it's important you are healthy," said the mother with an annoyed tone.

Hafiz answered nothing, to avoid arguing with her mother. He also did not want to be long-length because he wanted to take care of Diana. After her connection was cut off, Hafiz returned to the kitchen to prepare lunch for Diana. Aunt Farida painstakingly helped her niece whom she considered to be her own. Aunt Farida cooks porridge for Diana. Hafiz brought her into the room and put her on the nightstand. He saw his wife's pale white face.

"Darling, wake up baby. You have to have lunch so you can take medicine" Hafiz said as he stroked Diana's cheek gently.

"Yes, what time is it, brother?" diana asked while confirming her sitting position.

"It's 12:15. Adzan zuhur soon. You have to eat well" said Hafiz again.

Bribes by mouth went into Diana's little mouth. Hafiz patiently fed his wife. Aunty watched from the room door, staring at Diana with great sadness. Not long ago they were married, had gotten a test like this. Remembering Hafiz who also loved Diana so much.

Adzan zuhur. Diana had finished eating. Hafiz hurried to go to the mosque. Diana was accompanied by Aunt Farida at home.

"Bi, where's April bi,? why not come here?" diana asked Aunt Farida.

"For a friend of hers at home, so she can't come here" Farida's aunt said.

In the midst of their conversation, Diana suddenly felt such intense pain around her stomach. He grimaced a little while holding his stomach. Aunt Farida looks panicked to see Diana's face change, but can't do anything about it. Diana immediately asked her aunt to pick up a tote bag containing medicines and files from the hospital. Aunty also swiftly gave it and helped Diana take her medicine. After 10 minutes, the pain finally subsided. Diana again saw the contents in the tote bag where there was a white envelope with a hospital logo where she was treated. Just as he was about to remove the contents in the envelope, suddenly heard greetings from Hafiz who had returned from the mosque.

"Have you taken your medicine, baby?" hafiz asked as she took the envelope from Diana's hand.

"Sister, I took it anyway. Ana wants to see sister," whined Diana.

"You have to rest a lot" said Hafiz, switching the conversation. "It is forbidden to argue," said Hafiz a little emphasis.

"Eits...where are you?" Hafiz started to standby.

"You go to the bathroom, you want to wudhu," replied Diana.

"Yes let me drop you off" Hafiz helped Diana.

Until her in the bathroom, Diana saw so much blood on the underwear she was wearing. He immediately cleansed himself. Assisted by Hafiz. Then Hafiz forbade him to move again. When she finished, Hafiz carried Diana back to the room and laid her down on the bed. Diana is back to rest. Hafiz flicked the fine hair on Diana's forehead. Then kiss Diana's forehead very gently. Then leave Diana and meet the aunt who was sweeping the courtyard outside the house.

Aunty read the aura of sadness on Hafiz's face. He also stopped his activities. Hafiz was sitting under a tree followed by Bibi.

"Bi, is there traditional medicine in our village? Hafiz was very afraid to see Diana's condition. He came back with so much blood", Hafiz started to look glassy.

"Why not be hospitalized again, son" Auntie advised.

"Hospital aura will only stress him, and it will decrease his endurance. Now how to make his heart stay happy bi, so that his immunity is stronger and he is eager to heal," explained Hafiz again.

"Find out what he likes, try to entertain with it" suggested the aunt.

Hafiz nodded slowly. He looked at the door of the house. Then look around him. When she had just occupied the house with Diana, Diana had managed to turn the terrace of the house into a flower garden. With some of her favorite flower pots. The memories made Hafiz even more sad. Then he thought of something.

"Bi, Hafiz said Diana was bi. Later that afternoon before Maghrib Hafiz will be home. Aunty please accompany Diana ya bi", Pinta Hafiz.

Aunt agreed to it. Hafiz immediately rode his motorcycle. He also went around the village. It turned out that he intended to buy flowers at some of the guardians where he used to teach. He wanted to bring beautiful bunga2 to his wife as a gift. On the way, a girl greeted him.

"Assalamualaikum mas Hafiz", greet a red hooded day at Hafiz.

"Waalaikumsalam", Hafiz answered briefly.

A girl who once liked Hafiz in her village. His name is Halimah. Hafiz didn't pay much heed to her. He'll be gone soon. But Halimah looked at him with a slight frown on her forehead, signifying disappointment. Halimah was the son of one of the clerics in the village where Hafiz lived. Hafiz also knew Halimah's feelings long ago. But he was more interested in Diana's personality.
