" I failed, Rin. I failed to be a good sister to Sabina." Fa'i murmured with a trembling voice.
Arini also cried, sadness because of the departure of her best friend also pity her husband.
In front of all the people Fa'i behaved as if rigid and sincere. Trying to hold back his tears, because he did not want to look weak by others.
However, when both and in front of the wife. Fa'i was unable to hold everything back, sobs of grief and guilt filled his mind immensely.
The dams in his eyes finally broke, her tears washed down her face.
" Mad, it must be strong. We all lose, but God's plan is more beautiful for all of us." Arini said with a raucous voice restraining her cries.
Arini released her embrace, looking at the husband's face. Both of her hands cupped her husband's face. Slowly her thumb wiped away the tears.
" I know I've been trying. Man is only capable of effort, but not all things God determines."
Arini smiled sweetly.
Arini's sweet smile was instantly able to cool Fa'i's heart. The anxiety in his heart slowly reduced even though it had not disappeared.
The warm touch on his face was also Arini's smile. Slowly the two corners of his lips were drawn upwards making a smile on his face.
Although it was able to smile, but the concussion still enveloped his heart. But, it's okay at least the burden is slightly reduced.
In addition to being a perfect wife, Arini is also able to be a good friend to her husband.
....................
The days had passed, the sadness had gradually diminished. All back to their activities.
It's sad, but life goes on. Until God stops time to breathe.
All has passed, humans just have to wait for when the moment arrives.
The daughter of Imam and the late Sabina, now cared for by the Imam's family. The priest doesn't want to stay in that house anymore. Too many memories would make him constantly think about Sabina.
The beautiful baby was named Aisya Alfattarunissa . Because of her guilt, Arini and Fa'i often visit to see the tiny baby.
Fa'i loved his nephew very much. Until - until he does not want to be called Uncle by Aisya later.
However, Fa'i wants Aisya to call him father and mother for Arini.
Perhaps if possible, Fa'i wanted to take care of the tiny baby. But, there is no way the Imam will allow it. The priest loved his daughter more than anything in the world.
That day Arini and Fa'i visited the Imam's parents' house. To meet Aisya of course.
Fa'i invited to talk with the Imam in the room next to the mansion.
" Mum, don't you want to find a replacement for Sabina?" tanya Fa'i after nearly four months of Sabina's departure. The priest shook his head.
" Sabina was my first love, you know that. For almost ten years I waited for him, to be patient to have him. It's not that easy I can forget about it and replace it with a new one."
Fa'i understood, but he also did not want his best friend to constantly dissolve in sadness.
Maybe if there was a surrogate female figure of Sabina. The priest can gradually erode the sadness in his heart.
The priest turned his gaze to Aisha who was now in Arini's arms in the guest room. Both ends of his lips were pulled up, forming a smile. Now the priest rarely smiles like that.
Aisya also looks comfortable in Arini's sling. Aisya always chattering ria, when Arini invites her to talk.
" Ehhmpph, Aisya is now a pinter. Smile from before. Kangen mommy huh, son..?" the instantaneous chattering of Arini made Aisya laugh crisply typical of a baby's laughter.
The priest and Fa'i who were watching from afar also smiled. Then walk towards them both.
" Thank you, Rin. Because of you, Aisya gets affection from a Mother.!" Imam
" Wasn't Aisya also our daughter, mas. Why should I thank you. We love Aisya." Arini replied after giving Aisya to Fa'i who also wanted to carry her.
The priest smiled at him. I don't know why Arini's attitude warms her heart.
The night is getting late, finally Arini and Fa'i return to the apartment closer than Umi's house.
Arini's pregnancy, which has entered the age of eight months, makes her not as free to move as before.
" Oh, is there a problem?" asked Arini when she came out of the bathroom and found her husband pensive near the window.
" Haha, there's no.!"
" It's clean - clean first, huh.?" keep Fa'i through to the bathroom.
Although Arini knew, her husband was in a bad condition. Moreover, each Arini asked about the real cause of Sabina's death. Or what happened in the operating room until Fa'i felt so guilty. Never answered by him.
One day Arini asked, but instead made Fa'i angry with her.
Since then, Arini has not asked. Although honestly curiosity still exists.
Fa'i just said that it scared him. The shadows are still real, making him afraid that the incident happened to Arini as well.
Actually Fa'i believes, everything that happens is the will of the creator. But, to forget about it is too difficult. It was as if there was a trauma all within him.
The shadows as Sabina breathed her last breath. When his hand began to slip from the grasp of the Imam. Sometimes it still rings in his mind.
Sabina had not seen her nine-month-old daughter in her womb. Let alone that, just after the baby came out Sabina was lifeless again.
It was as if baby Aisyah was sticking out of her womb. His life came out of his body.
As if it were breaking his heart. Fa'i really felt very guilty. To traumatize him, his own fear in his heart. Especially if you imagine it happened to Arini.
Arini also chose to provide support for her husband. Arini believes that there may be things that are not necessary, he knows for his good.
Klekk..
the sound of the bathroom door opening, awakening Arini's daydream. Her husband looked fresh after the shower.
Instantly Arini's smile was framed on his lips.
" *Hopefully, all the burdens in your mind are shed and gone as time goes by. I'm sure you don't want to share it with me because it's for the good of me and our son."
