Life is a Fight

Sister Anis

Umi and Syafira walked together to the Syakilla treatment room. His heart did not calm down to imagine his son was now at work, even though it was late at night.

"Mas Izar where is Mi?" ask Syakilla.

"Get home, honey."

"Lo why come home Mi, Mas Izar will usually sleep here with Madam Fira," he asked curiously.

"Had Killa rested, don't have much mind to let the spit healthy," Syafira advised.

"Mbak Fira and Umi must have lied to Killa?"

"What lies, dear?" Umi tried to cover up, but the situation could not be lied to.

"Where is Mas Izar now!" Killa looked teary.

Umi immediately hugged her youngest daughter, occasionally he dropped a kiss on the forehead of a beautiful girl who looked fresher than the day before.

"Mas Izar came home Nak, wanted to take a shower, change clothes continue to follow Mas Doni send goods," explained Umi gently.

"Mas Izar must be making money for Killa's treatment costs, right Mi? Killa went home, Kasian Mas Izar."

"Syakilla don't do it, Izar will be sad. Sister eats a lot, takes medicine while resting enough so that the spit is healthy, later spit it home."

"But Mi, Kasian Mas Izar," he said now in tears.

"Yes Umi know, pray Mas Izar to always be given health," replied Umi ended his debate with Syakilla.

The girl according to her, Umi then held a mat to be used by Syafira to rest.

At the same time, Syakilla witnessed the patient beside her eating accompanied by her parents.

Umi also wanted to see the nanar view of her buns daughter.

"Killa misses Abi?" ask Umi slowly.

"No Mi, don't talk about Abi. Let Abi be happy with her new family," the girl's answer took Umi a little cramped.

"Syakilla, Syafira .. The klas yes Nak. Umi is here with you," said Umi rubbed the chest of his two daughters alternately.

Umi knew, deep down in the heart of his two daughters missed Abi so much. The figure of the father who had been missing from the lives of the two girls.

In a different place, Abizar wrestles with the cold of the night. Being in a box car down the dark night road. Cold air pierced through his body wrapped in a thick jacket. His drowsiness tried to get rid of by humming along chanting sholawat that he turned from his phone. He continued to carry a boxcar in place of his colleague who was now asleep next to his seat.

All he did with Ihklas for the sake of Umi and his two younger siblings. At 02.00 wib in the morning, he had arrived at the location of the drop of goods. A furniture factory on the border of the city where he lives.

Izar and Doni immediately unload the cargo, assisted by some furniture employees who entered the night, they lowered the wood that was quite a lot. In less than an hour they just finished bringing down all the goods.

A few moments of rest, Izar returned to take his car home. The drowsiness really could not be held until his partner took over the wheel. Izar closed his eyes for a moment.

Right at dawn, Izar arrived in front of his rented alley. He got out of the car immediately after receiving a wage from Doni. Thankfully, Izar was still asked tonight to accompany him to deliver more goods.

"Well, Umi's home?" abizar asked in shock to see Umi preparing for the dawn prayer.

"Yes Mas, Umi just came home, want to prepare breakfast for Mas Izar," he replied gently.

Umi helplessly looked at her son who looked so tired.

"Izar can cook instant noodles or fry his own eggs Mi," he replied as he put his phone on the table.

"It's papa ndak, wudhu Mas, yuk worshipers with Umi later just rest after dawn prayers," pinta Umi.

Izar just nodded as he walked towards the bathroom.

After performing the prayer of worshipers, Izar immediately dropped his body on the floor wrapped in a mat. The same place they used the prayer.

"Capek really, Mas," asked Umi now sitting next to Izar by massaging his son's shoulders.

"Bottom Mi, back to him. Late tired of sitting in the car," he replied as he looked at Umi.

Umi patiently massaged her son until he fell asleep. The new clock is at 05.30 wib, there is still an hour and a half for his son to rest before leaving for work again as cleaning service at Syafira school.

"And if Mas Izar allows Umi to work to help ease your burden Son," muttered Umi as she looked at her son who was now asleep in his sleep.

Not feeling early in the morning, Umi immediately woke Abizar to prepare to leave for work, after preparing Izar to leave home with Umi, although with a different purpose. Umi will go to the hospital while she will work at the school Syafira.

Even at work Abizar still thinks about the cost of Syakilla's care. This afternoon Syafira called if the rest of the money in the ATM had been used to redeem the medicine.

While walking down the crowded streets with the hustle and bustle of the atmosphere home from work he kept thinking about how to get money again.

Borrowing from his friend again is impossible. The money that he just did not know how to return.

"Abizar right?" said one suddenly startling his daydream.

He was silent, momentarily looking at the figure of the woman who called out to him.

"Anisa, right?" said doubtful.

"Yes, God meet here! Healthy Zar?" tanyy again.

"Thank God, healthy. Where are you going on foot?"

"Oh this just bought a side dish, that's my contract, stop by yuk!" said inviting.

Every morning and evening Abizar walked through the same streets but he never saw his Junior High School friend living near the school of Syafira.

Abizar was still sculpting, he did not feel good if he refused but he realized his friend was a girl. He shouldn't play in a girl's contract alone.

"Sorry Zar, we just chat in front of that many other rented residents on a sit-down," he said understanding what Abizar thinks.

Abizar followed his friend for a moment to reminisce about Junior High.

He sat on the rented terrace while enjoying a glass of ice syrup served by Anisa.

"You're still in college, Nis?" tanyanya opened the conversation.

"Alhamdulilah, have graduated. How is Izar himself? I was hesitating, Abizar's time on foot?" his chatter recalled Abizar's situation at school last which was inversely proportional to him.

"Any can do this. I didn't go to college for a long time" he said.

"Can't you?" surprised answer.

Abizar told Anisa everything in his nature. I don't know if the girl was able to make Abizar reveal everything that had been in his pendam in silence. Her heart's pain about the problems of life that were kept tight has been revealed all to Anisa.

Feeling relieved indeed, until unconscious Abizar was already covered in tears.

"Patience Zar, I did too" he said pity.

They were not very close at school but today look like close friends sharing personal stories.

Anisa tells the beginning of her life story to become what it is today. Since the mother died when Anis was still sitting in Junior High, then the father also left him when he was in High School and conflicts with his extended family were triggered by the problem of property, then the father left him too when he was in high school and conflict with his extended family, he now lives alone in a contract.

Abizar feels finding strength again, he meets people with the same fate as him even with a different story.

For a moment they were silent in each other's minds.

"Now Umi and the sisters are home?" tanya Anis broke the silence.

"My smallest sister is being treated at RSUD, at home there are no people" he explained to Anisa.

"Loh, what pain? I also work at RSUD now" he said in shock.

"Tipes said, what part are you working there?"

"In what room?" ask again without answering another question Abizar.

"Flamboyant Room 3."

Anisa was silent, she remembered the patient who was in the room mentioned by her childhood friend.

"Sick tipes in room Flamboyant 3? Her name is Syakilla, right?" guess again.

"Kok you know?"

"Yes, I'm a nurse there. It just so happened that from yesterday I went back and forth to the room." he explained to Abizar.

Anisa and Abizar smiled without looking at each other. Several times also the neighbor who crowded joking laughter on the terrace warmly greet his presence.

The jokes were joked a few times by them.

"Just this time ad guy was meeting at the place of Mbak Anis,"

One that was mentioned by them. Anis or Abizar responded with a smile.

"Eh, Izar didn't go to the hospital? I happen to shift tonight, ba'da isya' I'm leaving."

"What a coincidence, titip Syakilla ya. I still have another job tonight so I can't get there yet."

"Oh so, keep the spirit yes," he said ending the chatter this afternoon.

Not forgetting they exchanged phone numbers before Abizar came home.

His heart was a little relieved after meeting and sharing the story with his old friend.

When night falls, Umi is confused by her youngest daughter who is being treated. The girl cried because she wanted to meet Abizar.

Umi and Syafira have lost their way to seduce the beautiful girl.

"Well, how pretty are you crying?" ask a doctor who will check on Syakilla.

"Yes this is Doc, miss his brother," replied Umi with a smile.

The nurse who stood in line with the doctor smiled as she clasped Syakilla's hand.

"Honey, miss Mas Izar huh?" tanyanya gently.

Umi and her two daughters were shocked to hear the nurse mention Abizar by name.

"Coh sister, do you know?" ask Umi confused.

He smiled before answering Umi's question.

"Yes Ma'am, I'm Anis. Abizar's friend at Junior High, this afternoon I accidentally met Abizar when I came home from work," explained the nurse to Umi.

Umi was immediately flinched. Her heart trembled at the name, a name that was actually beautiful but made Umi's heart slice with a clean sliver.

Yes, the name was almost similar to the name of the woman who snatched the man of his pride. The figure of the great man in his life who could leave him with children for the sake of the woman of the same name with the nurse who introduced himself.

"Mom, Sorry. Is Anis saying it wrong?" he said slowly it looked so confused.

"Oh, no, son. Please Doc, check the state of Syakilla," said Umi still spread a smile.

For a moment the Doctor and the nurse spoke while examining Syakilla, while Umi was still staring at Syakilla's bedside.

"Umi inget Bella's mom, right?" guess Syafira.

"Sorry son." she replied as she looked at the beautiful girl.

Syafira was silent, he knew it was not easy to be Umi. His heart must have been broken by the man who betrayed him. Many times Umi did say sincerely to her children. However, he knows there is still love in Umi's heart for the one they call Abi.

"It wasn't Umi who asked us to take Abi?" whispered Syafira.

"Sorry dear, Umi was just carried away. However Abi is your father, Umi never forgets about it" she replied smiling but her eyes were teary.

Syakilla who saw Umi and her brother whispering was curious.

"Dek Syakilla can not be sad again yes, if you diligently eat and take medicine in addition not much mind definitely cepet home," said the doctor to the beautiful girl.

"Yes Doc" he replied slowly.

"That's listen, honey. No more crying, huh?" said Umi.

The girl only replied with a smile.

"Mas Izar is fine, God willing," Anis said, making Syakilla cry again.

The doctor was very happy, but he left his nurse with the patient's family because he had another job.

"Sister, don't cry anymore. Later if Mbak's phone is full of batteries, must be on the phone Mas Izar," Syafira calms.

"Suster call Mas Izar yes, it's a shame don't cry," Anis said as she grabbed the phone in her pocket.

They don't know each other. However, his profession made him immediately familiar with his little friend's family.

"Assalamualaikum, Fish. What's up?" Abizar's voice was heard from the other side as it was in the laudspeaker.

"Waalaikumsalam," he answered immediately gave his phone to Syakilla.

"M-Mas" Syakilla said as she sobbed.

"Loh, Honey. Syakilla why are you crying Deck?"

"Killa Kangen Mas Izar. Where's mas?" he said still sobbing.

Umi tried to calm down but did not seem to have much effect.

"Dek, listen to Mas Izar. I can't cry, darling. Tomorrow if Mas comes home from work there," he replied gently.

"Where is the noise," said Umi suddenly joined in asking.

"Izar on Mi road, again send the goods,"

"Oh Allah my son" Umi murmured softly.

"Gara Syakilla is sick, right, Mas Izar so work continues? Killa wants to go home now" he said in surprise.

"Listen to Izar. Mas, Umi and Miss Fira dear Killa, Adek can not talk so, Mas will do anything important Killa healthy again," he said he sounded noisy because he was in a car that was speeding.

Killa began to wipe away her tears but Umi just sobbed.

"They wear jackets, right? the wind tonight will make you catch a cold."

"Yes Mi, Izar wears a jacket. Already yes, batrenya want to end this Mi. Killa isn't sad, is she? Greetings to Ms. Anis," he said, hanging up.

Killa gave the nurse a cell phone.

Soon Anis said goodbye to Syakilla and her family.

"Umi ...," call Syakilla.

"Yes my darling,"

"Umi was sad Abi keinget huh?" syakilla asked in front of Umi and her sister.

Umi just silently looked at the two beautiful princesses alternately. He is no longer good at hiding his feelings in front of his children.

"Mi, forget Abi. If Umi wants to marry again, inshaallah Syafira does not prohibit. Umi deserves to be happy like Abi. Syafira no longer wants to know Abi" said Syafira softly.

When words can no longer be spoken, only a smile can be offered for the words of his daughter.

"However Abi once carved happiness in the hearts of Umi and you, Umi just does not want you to hate Abi. Later when the time comes, however the story is in the past, Abi who will be a guardian when you get married later," explained Umi gently to her daughter.

"But Mi?"

"Have Son. If God wants Umi to marry again, how much Umi wants to refuse is still not able to block the power of God, he said, it's just that for now, may Allah bless Umi's desire to focus on caring for and caring for Umi's children first."

"But Umi can't be sad anymore!"

"Yes, Umi apologized, son, Umi just dissolved in the atmosphere earlier." he replied now with a smile.

The two girls were silent in Umi's hand. No sound of Syakilla's crying could be heard anymore. The beautiful girl was already quite relieved after hearing her elder brother's voice.

"Mi, Syakilla just go home yes, Kasian Mas Izar has to work during the night like this." he lamented while looking at the photo of Abizar made wallpaper on hp Syafira.

"Yes Nak, God willing Killa cepet healed yes let me spit it home," said Umi then amenkan by his two daughters.

The night passed with sadness. They were silent but in each other's mind was imagined by a young man who was struggling through the cold night for the sake of his little family.

"O Allah, protect Mas Izar. May you nourish his body, ease his steps to find a lawful rizky for us. Give peace of mind to our little family" Syafira lirih said in her tahajud prayer.
