Husband's Regrets: My Wife's Tears

Episode 45: Return to Bogor City

Michelle sat in Musholla Hospital in remembrance, asking God for forgiveness for her mistake, her husband's mistake. The exam that came this time was a very tough one for him. But as much as possible he must be strong and strong to undergo all.

'O Allah, forgive me my sins. Forgive my husband's sins. Verily, You will receive the repentance of a servant as long as his breath has not yet reached the throat (the heart of death). O Allah, give me a rainbow in every rain, a smile for every cry, Mercy for every ordeal, and strength for every conjecture. Verily, You are Most Merciful, Most Merciful!" with tears in her eyes, Michelle asked to ease the matter.

"Michie!" call someone from behind.

"Umi," sobbed Michelle, hugging the old body.

"Umi understands your feelings. Umi will always pray for the good of your household," said Umi

"Thank you, Umi. I want to understand how Michie feels. Pray strong Michie, Umi!"

"Of course, son. All parents always pray for their children. You must be patient and patient with it!"

"Yes, Umi," replied Michie. Michelle put her head on Umi's lap. Gently and affectionately, Umi stroked Michelle's head.

"You must be strong, son. Every household has problems. But, you have to be sure, all problems must have a solution. Most importantly, you must be sure that God's help is there. Pray a lot, baby!"

"Thank you, Umi," Michelle replied.

Morning sun welcomes the earth. Its warm rays awaken all creatures on the face of the earth to start all activities. Nathan opened his eyes, as the rays of the Sun dazzled the sense of sight.

Indeed after the dawn prayer, he closed his eyes briefly, although still complete with his prayer clothes. Nathan only woke up when the sunlight barged in through the cracks of the curtain, and hit the manic. The clock has shown eight o'clock past. He rushed, took a shower and cleaned up.

Nathan wants to go to the hospital. And show the evidence to Abah. At least there's evidence to make Abah believe him a little.

After the bath, Nathan was getting ready by wearing a white t-shirt, combined with black jeans. Not forgetting, he brought the evidence. He put it in a brown envelope with the name of the Hospital that treated him first.

Nathan's car was speeding towards the Hospital. His heart was very longed for his wife. Does his wife miss him as much as she does now?

The car arrived at the hospital parking lot. With Nathan's gasps to the father-in-law's room. However, the father-in-law's room was empty. There's a hospital attendant who's making her father-in-law's bed.

"Mas, where are the patients here?"

"The patient has returned, sir," the officer replied.

"Come home?" Nathan seemed to think, "Has the patient allowed to go home?" ask Nathan again.

"Already, sir,"

"All right, thank you" replied Nathan.

Nathan came out of the room. He was confused, why his wife did not tell him that Abah was allowed to go home.

"Why didn't Michie send any messages?" muttered Nathan opened his cell phone message notification. And there's no message there.

"Did they go back to Bogor?"

Nathan attempted to send a message to his wife's cell phone. But the status of the message has not been read. Made a lot of questions in his mind.

"Why not read? Is Michie's phone dead?" inner Nathan. Because it is not usually the wife turns off the phone.

Michelle sat in the back seat with Umi and Ratna. Abah sat in the front seat, next to Faiz who was driving. So last night, Abah called Faiz to pick them up. Early in the morning, Faiz arrived at the hospital.

Throughout the journey Michelle was silent. Even as Ratna cheerfully told a funny story and made everyone laugh, Michelle was busy with her own thoughts.

Her mind was far away, thinking of her husband. She was sure that her husband would come to the hospital. Then, how did her husband come, and she was no longer there. Michelle was struck by anxiety, however, her family did not care about her current feelings at all.

Michelle's heart was really very upset. She should have contacted the husband, just to give word, that Abah was allowed to go home. Michelle's phone ran out of quota, and the battery was weak.

HUFT ...

Michelle could only sigh long. He should be able to be patient again facing test after test. There are still many tests that she has to face with her husband.

Will he be able to take the test?

Will he be patient and strong? Or will she eventually break up with her husband?

Such thoughts continued to plague his brain. The thought of farewell was in sight. Can she live without a husband?

It didn't feel like a clear circle was flowing down his cheek. Umi could see the sadness and pain of her son. Umi clasped Michelle's hand. Making Michelle's heart freeze under pressure, suddenly melt like ice cubes in the sun.

The car, driven by Faiz, finally reached Abah's residence. A large house with two floors. Abah's classic-style house, fairly large. With a fairly large home page. Abah was among those who were quite in comparison to the other Abah brothers.

In Bogor itself, Abah is quite a respected person. Abah owns three building shops. And two Minimarkets located in the city center. Not to mention the plantations located in the villages.

Abah's own son has four. All girls. The first child is dead. The second child, Kak Siti is married and lives in Surabaya with her husband. Third, Michelle herself. And the youngest, Ratna, Michelle's sister.

They all got out of the car. A housekeeper came out and welcomed the joy of their arrival.

"Abah and Umi came home. Well, Mba Michelle also came home," said Bi Ijah happy. Michelle just smiled knot.

"Bi, clean Michelle's room!" tell Umi.

"If cleanliness anyway, do not worry Umi. Every day, Mba Michelle's room is always cleaned, " Bi Ijah said.

"Oh, then go straight to the room, son. You must be tired!"

"Yes, Umi. Michie just go straight to the room!"

"Ratna also went straight to the room, Umi. The waist of Ratna pegel" Ratna said.

"Yes, already. You rest there!" tell Umi.

"Faiz, come with Uncle!" take Abah to Faiz.

"Good Uncle," he said.

Uncle took Faiz to sit on the terrace. Umi came in after her two daughters.

"Faiz, tell your father! Uncle's brought Michie home! And Uncle has also told besan, to persuade his son to immediately take care of the divorce papers. As a sister, Uncle has complied with your father's request!" said Abah.

"Yes, Uncle. Faiz will convey. Now Faiz is home! Please leave, Uncle!"

"Yes, thank you for picking up Uncle and family" Abah said.

"Good, Uncle,"
