I AM FAITHFUL TO HIM WHOM YOU LOVE

THE DEPARTURE OF MR. ADI

Mara walked over to Arthur who was struggling in front of the stove.

" Bang I want to go on the road with a friend." Said Mara sitting at the dining table.

" Can't." Sahut Arthur's.

" I'm not asking permission, I'm just telling you." Mara.

" A wife cannot go without her husband. So then...

" That's if the husband and wife are real, lha we are husband and wife are lying."

Tech....

Arthur put the spatula down loudly making Mara prance in shock. Arthur turned his body sharply to Mara.

" How can you say we're husband and wife lying? Does our marriage mean nothing to you? Do you think all this is just a toy? Then why do you stay here with Miss Mara." Arthur pressed his last word.

" No need to be that Bang. You talk like that as if you want to be a real husband. I feel like you have feelings for me, or don't don't love me." Mara.

Arthur advanced to Mara, Mara was about to dodge but Arthur immediately bent down to put both hands on the handle of the chair making Mara unable to wiggle.

" What if I have feelings for you? Shouldn't I love you? You are my wife, and it is my duty to give my love and my heart to you. Shouldn't you be like that too?" Arthur looked at Mara.

" no... You do have the status of my husband, but you will never be able to have love and my heart because both already belong to others. I love Aldo and forever he's all I love." The Sahut Mara made Arthur's heart melt.

Arthur immediately moves away from Mara's body, he continues his activities of cooking breakfast for the two of them.

Mara let out a sigh of relief, for some reason if she was near Arthur she felt like she was suffocating from not being able to control something in her heart.

Drt... Drt...

Arthur's phone rang an incoming call sign. Mara sees the caller id that is displayed on the phone screen.

" Bang bi Ningsih calls this." Mara.

" Just lift it!" Sahut Arthur's.

" Code?" Ask Mara.

" Date of our wedding."

Degs...

Mara's heart rippled. He did not expect Arthur to make their wedding date special.

Mara unlocks Arthur's pin code and picks up the phone immediately from his mother-in-law.

" ha's... Hello, Mom." Mara.

Arthur smiles when Mara calls her mother Mom. Even though I still feel nervous.

" Hello Miss Mara, I want to inform you that Mr. Adi has fallen ill. He's in the ICU now Miss."

" What???" Mara Pekik. Arthur turned to Mara.

" What's wrong Miss Mara? Did something happen?" Arthur approached Mara after turning off the stove.

" lt.. Papa Bang's. Papa's sick, I have to get there now Bang. Let's go there Bang!" Mara said with a worried tone.

" Be calm Miss Mara! We'll go there but calm yourself down first! Don't panic! Pray that everything is okay." Arthur touched both Mara's shoulders.

Arthur took the phone in Mara's hand.

" Hello Ma'am." Sapa Arthur's.

" Yes, son." Sahut bi Ningsih's.

" Mister Adi is in which hospital, ma'am? We'll be there soon." Said Arthur.

" In the hospital xx." Sahut bi Ningsih's.

" Good Mom, thank you." Arthur hung up his phone call.

" Let's go there, Miss, or eat first the cooking is ripe." Said Arthur.

" Just go there, Bang." Mara Sahut.

" All right." Sahut Arthur's.

Arthur and Mara drive to xx hospital. For about an hour and a half, they finally reached the hospital. Mara went down inside and left Arthur.

Mara runs towards the ICU room, in front of the room looks bi Ningsih faithfully waiting for her.

" How is Papa Bi?" Tanya Mara approached bi Ningsih.

" Oh my God... Papa hicks... Save my papa, God, I don't want to lose him. Hix.. Please, Rob." Mara Isak.

Arthur, who saw Mara slumped, immediately ran up to her.

" Calm down Miss!" Arthur embraces Mara.

" How can I calm down Bang? There, my father is fighting death. Hix... What if papa is not helped? Why is Dad sick so bad? So far papa has no history of Bang's disease. Hix... I don't want to lose Papa." Mara hugged Arthur suddenly.

" We pray for the best for Mr. Adi." Arthur stroked Mara's head.

The doctor soon came out of the room.

" How's my dad doing Doc?" Mara asked looking at the male doctor in front of her.

" I'm sorry Miss, we've tried our best but Mr. Adi can't be saved."

Jedeuarr....

" Notkkk." Mara's screams covered both her ears.

" Calm down Miss!" Said Arthur.

Mara stared intently at the doctor, she came forward and pulled the doctor's collar, leaving everyone shocked.

" How can my papa not be saved huh! If you don't help people, don't be a doctor." snapped Mara.

" So calm Miss, let go of him! He's been trying, but God's the one who determined it." Arthur's words release Mara's grip.

" If he tries harder, my papa can be saved. I will sue you! I'm gonna sue this hospital." Shouted Mara pointing at the doctor.

" I'm sorry my wife Doc, you can leave before my wife loses control. Again sorry." Arthur looked at the doctor.

" It's okay Sir, I understand his attitude. Then excuse me." The doctor passed from there.

" Where are you going? You must be in charge Doctor!!!" Mara screamed again.

" Miss Mara control yourself! We're in the hospital." Arthur touched both Mara's shoulders.

" Let go of me! I'll make the calculations on that stupid doctor. He doesn't work, he..

" Mara!!!" Arthur's jerk shocked Mara.

Mara looked at Arthur and vice versa.

" You can't blame the doctor, death is God's destiny. Maybe this is best for Mr. Adi Miss." Said Arthur.

Mara looks very sad to lose the only one she has. The only one he loves right now has to leave him.

" Hix... Papa Bang's... Papa's... Hix.... "

Arthur pulls Mara into his arms.

" Papa Bang's.. Papa has left me! I'm alone Bang, I have no one else in this world... "

" There's me and your two in-laws Miss. Don't ever think that you're alone right now, we're there for you. We'll always be with you." Said Arthur.

" Do you want to see papa's body?" Asked Arthur in a nod by Mara.

" Okay come on!"

Arthur embraces Mara's shoulders, both of them getting into the ICU room. Mara looked at her dead body lying on the bed covered in white cloth.

" Hix.... " Mara shuts her mouth. Tears dripped profusely on his cheeks, his chest felt tight. He wanted to scream to wake his papa but he was powerless even if he just let out his voice.

" Crying out the tightness in your chest Miss, hug your father for the last time." Said Arthur.

" Pope... " Mara hugged her papa body.

" Pope... Hix... Why did you leave me like this? I can't live without papa hiks."

" I'm sorry, sir, this is a deposit from Mr. Adi before he died. He told you to open it when you're alone." Said a nun giving a small envelope to Arthur.

" Okay, thanks, Sus." Said Arthur in the nod of the head by the nurse.

" What else is hidden by Mr Adi? Does this have anything to do with Aldo again? " Tell Arthur in my heart.
