Indecision

In front of Lika was already standing Grandma who looked at her with a sharp gaze, at that time it was already showing at 11 p.m.

Lika downcast did not dare to look at her grandmother's face, Lika realized that some days she always went home at night, not even had time to ask permission from her grandmother.

"Ma.I'm sorry, Grandma..." Said Lika while looking down.

"Come in and sit down.grandma will talk..." Sahut Granny flat. Then Lika came in and sat on the living room sofa, grandma was sitting in front of her, the atmosphere of the house was quiet, Lia must have been sleeping.

"So Ricky was waiting for you here..." Grandma Said.

"Oh yeah.he didn't say he was coming here..." Answer Lika.

"She asks, where did you go.grandmother does not know.Even your phone can not be contacted..." Grandma looked at Lika inside.

"Sorry Grandma.tadi me..."

"Actually you want to put into who your heart is, son.determine your choice now.to whom your heart is anchored Grandma will approve..." Add Grandma with a slightly quivering voice.

"Sir.don't ask me that now.I'm not ready..." Lika.

"So Grandma talked to Ricky a lot, he said he was serious about you and would propose to you..." Grandma Said. Lika gasped at the words of Grandma.

"Sir.do not give any answer.I am not ready..." Sergey Lika.

"Then, what else are you waiting for...?" Ask Grandma.

"There's one thing I'd like to make sure of first.be patient any minute..." Answer Lika.

"Well.now eat first, then rest..." Grandma Say. Then Grandma immediately stood up and passed into her room.

Lika who was sitting on the sofa alone, soon after she cleaned her body and went into her room.

***********

The next day Lika woke up with a very tired body, last night she did not have time to fill her stomach because of fatigue.

Today is Saturday, school is off, Lika wriggles lazily then gets up from her bed to the bathroom. Before he could hear his phone ringing, Lika picked it up.

"Hello..." Sapa Lika who doesn't know who called her.

"Hello...Ms. Lika...this is me Sarah...Can I come here? I really want to talk to you..."

Degs...

Lika's heart seemed to stop beating, Sarah called him and asked him to come?

"Hello..." Lika was aware of her daydream.

"Eh...iya..iya...what time can I come mbak?" Tanya Lika stammered.

"This cheer may.so that you can have a longer conversation.but please.don't bring the children..." Sarah said in a soft voice.

"Well.I'll come after lunch..."

"Thank you, Miss Lika..." Then the phone is turned off.

Lika stood dumbstruck, what would Sarah talk to her about? Lika did not dare to guess, then she immediately grabbed her towel and entered the bathroom.

Lia was already waiting for him at the dining table by the time Lika had just walked out of the bathroom.

"Old very sak..from kemaren sibuuuk continue.kasian grandma brother..mau aja difficult talk..." Grunts Lia.

"You why the hell early in the morning have been chirping.now holiday let's say..." Lika Sahut.

"Huh.kak don't know last night, Mr. Ricky long ago you wait for his brother to come home.where his children on the nyariin brother.kasian kak time people in PHP in...even though I didn't agree with him..."

Lika who heard the babbling of her sister, nyelonong left her and went into her room. This morning his head was messed with his sister's babble. Lika also undoes her intention to eat at the dining table together with Lia.

Lika grimaced holding hunger in her stomach, finally inevitably she went out of the room to the dining table, seeing Lia and Grandma eating together.

"Let's eat here, grandma knows from last night you didn't eat, because your food is still intact..." Said Grandma while sliding the chair for Lika. Then Lika sat down and took her food.

"Hmm.Granny's cooking is second to none..." Excited Lika while giving her thumb.

"Yes already...Grandma can go alone too.." Cetus Grandma.

"Lia's the one between Grandma...It's been Nek's day off all day..." Said Lia suddenly. Lika smiled happily.

"Thank you Lia.Keep Grandma yes.today I really have an important appointment..." Please Lika. Lia just nodded.

*************

That afternoon, as she promised, Lika went to the hospital to visit Sarah alone, in her heart rumbled, what was Sarah going to talk about?

Until, in front of Sarah's room, Lika stopped her steps, she looked through the glass at the door, a woman was sitting in a wheelchair, facing out the window.

Slowly Lika opened the door and approached the woman.

"Little of the day Sarah...." Gentle Lika greeting. Sarah turned her body, her face was not too pale, looked fresher than before, the oxygen hose was removed, only the infusion remained attached.

"Siang Bu Lika..." Sarah said, pointing to a chair in front of her. Then Lika sat down immediately.

"It looks like Sarah looks fresher today..." Lika.

"You can just...Next week I'll have surgery to remove the uterus..." Sarah said with a straight look ahead. Lika gasps.

"Sarah's mother will definitely be able to get through all this.the baby will definitely heal..." Holiday Lika.

"A passion for what? I have no hope anymore.you see.I am always alone here without anyone to accompany, only a distant cousin who can sometimes still accompany me..." Sarah said glaringly.

"Bella?"

"Yes...Bella...I met him again after so many years without seeing him, I used to be very unfamiliar with him, but somehow after he found out I was sick, he became a little more concerned with me...from him I know, my ex-husband and children live in this town..." Sarah Reveal.

"Mbak.mbak Sarah still have hope, there are still children who love mbak..mbak see when you meet..they miss mbak so much.so..." Lika said while holding Sarah's hands.

"Maybe the children still love me, after what I did to them.but not with my ex-husband.he hates me..." Sarah said with teary eyes.

"Sir..do not talk like that.pak Ricky does not hate mbak Sarah.I'm sure it..he's just disappointed with his past..." Lika Sahut.

"Mom Lika.I know from Bella.you are close to my ex-husband.before I leave.I ask you my big apology to him...I left him.With the man I thought would love me completely, it turned out to have left me when I was sick and down.but anyway..all was too late..." Sarah's cry broke instantly. His trembling shoulders held back the pent-up emotion. Lika hugged that skinny body.

"Mbak..walau has become a porridge..if it is seasoned and processed well..the taste will be delicious.I trust me I will help you..."

"What do you mean?" Sarah looked at Lika's face.

"Yes.I'll help you get them back to you..." Said Lika sure.

"No.it is impossible.all is too late.I am also sincere if the children go away from me..." Sarah shakes her head.

"Trust me mbak..nothing is impossible in this world.you still have hope.pak Ricky, Kezia and Nando..." Lika looked inside Sarah's face, there was still hope to make the woman before Lika happy.
