Seeing her son has come, Rina stood up. Bu Rina shifted her body so that Adi could sit near her father. Ms. Rina sat to the left of Luke's father.
" dad ... " Adi was a little worried about why her father was looking for her.
Although his heart was very sad to see Luke's father lying helpless. This man called father by Adi was smilingly staring at his only son.
" Daughter, you've come" Luke's father commented with a smile.
" Yes well "sahut Adi.
" Daughter, listen to what I'm about to say "Luke's father sighed slowly.
Adi clasped his father's old hand. The hand that used to carry her is now weakly drooping. His handsome body could no longer sustain his illness. Medical equipment only helps Luke's father survive longer. But Luke's father chose to remove the medical aid. Doctors can't do much if it's a request from the patient himself.
Luke's father had given his life to God. He was ready to take his death with open arms. But before that happened Luke's father spoke seriously with his son.
" Dad, dad's time isn't much. Father asked for two things from you "Luke's father was a little stupefied.
" Dad, don't talk like that. Dad must be healed. I want you to attend my wedding ", said Adi.
Dad nodded weakly. There was little time left he wanted to leave quietly.
" Hear dad, son. Marry Shasha and I leave this company for you "dad takes a short breath before exhaling slowly.
Adi shook his father's request too hard to be granted. Because he has a lover heart and Adi loves his lover very much. While about the company Adi has not been interested in joining his father's company. Adi has not yet become president in his father's place.
Luke's father returned Sam's favor. By matching Adi with Shasha. And if Adi who leads the company will be more advanced with the help of Sam. So he can calmly leave this world without worrying again about the fate of his son and wife later.
" No yeah. I'm going to stay married but with my lover" Adi said.
Adi refused his father's request. No, no. I still wish Maria could be found. And will set her wedding day. Adi postponed his marriage because of waiting for Luke's father to recover.
Hearing Adi reject his request Luke's father becomes sad. It was clearly visible in Miss Lina's eyes. Bu Rina was also sad because Adi remained in his position.
" Adi "call Rina.
" Yes ma'am "Adi turned to look at the mother who gave birth to her.
" Daughter, it's not good to argue with your father. You better follow your father's wish " said Miss Rina softly.
" But ma'am ... " Adi was about to refute his mother's words.
But Luke's father's voice stopped the mother and child's argument.
" It's okay. Let Adi marry the girl of his choice "said Luke's father in an increasingly weak voice.
After saying that last sentence Luke's father stung for quite a while. It made Lina and Adi's mother panic. Luke's father's condition is getting worse. Adi pressed the nurse button to ask for help.
Soon after, a doctor and a nurse entered Luke's father's room. The doctor examined Luke's father. A few moments later the doctor nodded slowly. Bu Rina looked sad and worried by the sound of shaking, so she asked the doctor.
" How is my husband, doc" said Miss Rina anxiously.
The doctor breathed heavily. He should pass on this bad news to the patient's family.
" Sorry, ma. We've tried our best. But God willed another stoic yes ma'am" said the heavy doctor delivered bad news to Ms. Rina.
Rina's mother was stuck in her place hearing the explanation from the doctor who handled Luke's father. Bu Rina's body looks like cotton is very light. He was no longer able to endure the sadness of losing his soul mate. And in the end he fell unable to support his body. Ms. Rina collapsed in Adi's arms.
" dad ... " Adi weeps for her father who is gone.
Adi had not had time to ask the doctor he was surprised by his mother who fainted.
" Ibu uuu... " Adi holds her mother's body so that it does not fall down.
Adi shook the body of Rina but unfortunately her mother from Adi did not wake up too.
Several nurses came and helped move Miss Lina to the treatment room. While some of the other nurses lifted Luke's body. And take him to the morgue.
With tears Adi informs people home. Martha's only sister screamed hysterically after receiving bad news from the hospital.
" Mi, sober mi. Mommy don't be like this. Poor Ken, mi "Yakob is trying to resuscitate his wife.
Martha was crying.
" It's a mama's fault that doesn't follow what dad says. Mami regrets not being able to fulfill her father's wish "Martha cries out to blame her.
It was as if his father's departure was because he rejected his father's desire to manage the family company.
" Mommy don't blame yourself. This is all God's destiny. God loves you more than father, mi "comfort Yakob.
After a moment of crying Martha looked at her husband.
" I'm sorry mommy, pi "Martha embraces her husband.
" Let's get ready for the hospital" Yakob said.
" How about Ken, pi" asked Martha.
" Let Ken same aunt "Martha nod.
Today was the hardest day for Miss Rina. He must be willing to release his soulmate who has been a dozen years accompanying him. Luke's father has been gone for his entire life.
Adi pecked at his father's navel. He felt guilty for not being able to fulfill his father's request. He did not know it was his father's last request.
" Dad, forgive Adi yah "Adi rubbed his father's tombstone.
He sat there thinking about Luke's father's words some time ago. A sense of tightness filled his chest his heart was not ready to let go of the father.
Adi bowed languidly in front of his father's belly button. A pat on his shoulder made him turn his head. Next to her was Yakob her brother-in-law. The others have gone home.
" Dad was happy in heaven "Yakob stood looking up at the sky.
" That's not the case, sis" said Adi looking down miserably.
Yakob looked at his sister-in-law. Adi took a long breath. Breathing a lot of air to fill his lungs.
" I feel guilty for my father because at the last moment he had disappointed my father "Adi glazed over.
His grief was not due to the passing of his father. But Adi refused his father's last request. Adi was really sorry with his words that made his father disappointed.
" If you want me to be calm in heaven just fulfill my father's wish "suggested Yakob.
It was hard to grant his father's wish. Adi is at a crossroads. On one hand he wanted to be devoted to his father but on the other he loved his lover.
Yakob glanced at his sister-in-law.
" It's dark pity mom at home "Yakob then steps away.
Once again Adi looked at his father's belly button. Adi got up with slow steps he went from his father's final resting place.
A week after Luke's death all the family gathered in the living room. Yakob sat with Kenneth next to his wife Martha. Next to Martha was Adi. Miss Lina sat in the single seat.
There is still a long sofa that is still empty. Not long from the front uncle Dom came in followed from behind, Chris. Dom's only uncle's son. Both of them occupied the empty sofa.
" Night, sister-in-law "congratulations Dom.
" Just get to the point. I gathered you here to ask for advice and opinions about the company. Dad is no longer there and we have to find a replacement from him to continue the leadership of the company" Ms. Rina said in a raucous voice.
" Sister-in-law, I want to deliver the last message from Luke's brother "Dom made a sound and looked one by one at the people gathered in the room.
Miss Rina nodded slowly. Because what her sister-in-law will say has been said by her late husband.
After delivering a final message from her brother Dom appoints Adi to lead the company. But Adi felt he was not ready to replace his father. While Martha who was given the next offer turned to look at her husband. Yakob himself rests on his wife's decision. But Martha preferred to stay with her husband and turned down the offer.
Instantly the atmosphere in the family room became quiet. A moment of silence, Yakob spoke up.
" I'm sorry mom, I think let Uncle Dom lead the company. While waiting for Adi ready to replace father "yakob advice.
Miss Rina turned to Dom.
" How did Dom "tanya Miss Rina.
" When sister-in-law entrusts this company to me, I'm willing. But on one condition "uncle Dom swept his gaze around the surroundings present.
Everyone in the room looked at Uncle Dom.
" What conditions do you want, Dom" asked Miss Rina.
" After Adi is ready to be the leader I will leave this position to Adi" said Dom's uncle.
" How to "ask mom Rina to Adi.
" Okay, ma'am, " replied Adi.
Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief. One problem has been discussed. Now move on to the next problem. Adi and Shasha's match.
" We've discussed this before. What about you Adi "ask Rina's mother.
" I'm sorry ma'am, Adi will still be married but with Adi's lover" Adi replied.
Adi refuses to marry Shasha. Shasha was like her own sister. But he also could not tell his family that his lover disappeared. And until now he continues to search for the whereabouts of his lover.
Miss Rina breathed a heavy sigh. He was a little disappointed with Adi's decision. In the end, Miss Rina agreed to Adi's wishes. But on terms that must be accepted by Adi.
" Well, I will bless your marriage with your lover. Mother-to-be tomorrow to meet your beloved's family. And we'll set the date of her wedding " said Miss Rina.
Deg.
Adi rubbed his nape. It's beyond her expectations her mother agreed she married her lover. The problem now is that he doesn't know where Maria is.
" Why shut up "mom Rina frowned in wonder.
" Em, this is Miss Maria not at home" said Adi lirih.
" Where was she "now Martha who asked her sister.
Adi could not answer. Making the people in the room stare at Adi with various questions.
" Look, what happened. Why your lover is not home. Explain to us here "uncle Dom represents everyone in the room.
Adi felt confused where to start explaining her. After thinking long enough, Adi finally chose to be honest with his family.
" Mom, I'm sorry Adi. Adi wants to talk honestly to mom "Adi sighed.
" , you want to be honest about what, son "ask Miss Rina.
Adi managed to catch his breath several times he rubbed his face from nervousness. I better just say it now, muttered Adi.
" It's about Mary who's not home. Adi asked her lips and looked for Maria. But Adi hasn't found her "honest Adi.
" Are you going to continue your marriage with your lover" exclaimed Martha.
Yakob patted the back of his wife's hand.
" Calm down, I heard Adi's explanation first" said Yakob.
" Pi "Yakob shook his head giving his wife a code to keep quiet.
Martha was silent.
" What your brother said. Until when are you looking for your lover" said Uncle Dom.
" Until I find my lover, uncle "said Adi.
" How long is a year two years. You don't think about your mother. And ignore your father's request " said Uncle Dom.
Adi was unable to answer all the questions addressed to him. While he himself was also confused looking for his lover.
" There is no need to worry anymore "bu Rina mediates.
Everyone's attention is on Ms. Rina. After a long sigh, Rina made her decision.
" Mom gave you time, son. During this month if your lover has not been found you must be willing to accept this matchmaking "said bu Rina soft but full of firmness.
" But "mommy Adi.
Bu Rina smiled as she looked at her only son.
" The late father had already talked about this matchmaking with Uncle Sam. So there is no reason for you to fulfill the mandate of father "said mom Rina quietly and indisputably.
Adi looked down lethargic. He could no longer dispute his mother's words. He does not want to be a bad boy. Inevitably Adi had to agree with the decision taken by his mother.
" How to "ask Miss Rina.
" Okay ma'am" said Adi resignedly.
Once the discussion is complete all return to their respective rooms. Likewise with Adi. He stepped straight into his room.
Almost a month after returning home from work Adi was looking for Maria. But so far he could not find his girlfriend. It was late at night Adi stopped his motorbike at the side of the road. He looked ahead at the crowd of the streets. And in the city park he saw people who were laughing cheerfully with family or girlfriend. While he is alone there is no friend or girlfriend who accompanies.
Time and again Adi sighed her dissipating her heartbreak. Honey where you go so long. Do not hide too long soon we will get married, muttered Adi lowered his head in lethargy. Where else should I look for you while mom's given me a week left.
Adi stood up while ruffling her hair. He was very frustrated with Maria's passing. Do I have to accept this match, Adi muttered.
Time is rolling so fast. And until the deadline given by Miss Rina has run out. But Adi's lover could not be found. Finally with a heavy heart Adi received this match.
