Tonight Raisya sleeps with Ms. Merly. She couldn't be by her mother's side the day she needed it, so she decided to look after her tonight.
Actually since Ms. Merly had a stroke, Raisya had not had time to pay attention to her mother. Only the sister-in-law who diligently took care and prepared the needs of her mother.
There was shame and guilt in the girl's mind. I feel useless being a child.
"I'm sorry Raisya ma. I haven't been able to take care of my mom properly. Jobs in the Boutique are now a lot. Although I have quite a lot of employees but they can't help in this. Good thing there's a Holy Mother in this house who always takes good care of her." Raisya hugged the stiff body of her mother who had closed her eyes at that time.
Ms. Merly was actually still awake even though her eyes were not open. Can hear the babble that came out of the mouth of the princess just wayangnya. This time Raisya's words seemed to slap his ego. He opened his eyes and realized that his daughter-in-law had a truly sincere heart.
My son did not choose a companion wrong. Saints are truly great women. I must be the luckiest in-law in the world.
A clear thread came out from the still closed eye. It signifies the deep regret that Ms. Merly felt. But Raisya who had fallen asleep still faithfully hugged, completely unaware that her mother was crying in silence.
Meanwhile in another room.
Riki was gently rubbing the Sacred head that was asleep hugging him. The woman's breath was so smooth, the closed eyes were so calm. So peaceful he was in a dreamland.
"You must be tired all day looking after your mom. Thank you for being a good wife and daughter-in-law. I love you more."
Riki peeked a long time Holy forehead then hugged and rubbed his head back until he fell asleep.

Early in the morning the Holy One went down to the kitchen. He prepared waffles, toast, sausage and eggs for breakfast. Make fruit and milk salad. It didn't take long to serve all the menus. Moreover, an ART was also there to help him.
Now Riki and Raisya are sitting down and preparing to eat their breakfast. Meanwhile, Suci is still struggling to make oatmeal porridge and herbal drinks for mama Merly.
"Let me help you, you have breakfast with Raisya." Riki.
"Just eat first, you have to go to the office. It's over anyway. After you have breakfast, I'll eat." The stove is turned off.
Suci took a small bowl and moved the oatmeal porridge that was still boiling into it.
"Thank you so much because you took care of your mom. But you also do not forget to eat. I don't want you to get sick." Riki's eyes continued to catch the movement of his wife who looked very busy.
"Yes, don't worry too much about me. Just have breakfast, I'm going to mama's room now." Sacred Lips nyerocos and her gaze only focused onto the tray.
As fast as Holy lightning walked over to Mama Merly. Riki returned to his seat and devoured his food. Raisya ate only a little bit of his breakfast, he rushed after the sister-in-law to his mother's room.
"Bak let me feed mama. Ma'am better accompany Riki's breakfast downstairs." Raisya was already standing next to Saints who were sitting on the edge of the bed.
"It's okay, let's go. You'll have breakfast in a minute, you'll have to go to the boutique." The saint had already spooned the porridge and prepared to feed.
"I'm done with breakfast. I also want to take care of my mother before I leave."
"Alright, just slow down and bribe a little."
"Yes to mbak." Sacred stood up and Raisya sat down to take over to feed her mother.
"Bak lives yes..." Sacred patted Raisya's shoulder gently and immediately descended down.
Seeing the arrival of his wife, Riki pulled the seat next to him to be occupied by the Saints.
"Thank you for that." Sacred smiled looking at her husband's face.
"You eat gold, too." Do the same thing.
Finally bribing each other too.
"You're busy taking care of your mom. You're not cape ?" still feeding.
"Obviously. No cape." Chewing with a smile.
The smile of pride was on Riki's lips. Proud to have a truly sincere woman looking after not only herself but also looking after her mother.
"You are the best woman." Still with her smile, Riki stared fixedly at Sacred's face.
"No, I'm not that good." I am ashamed if it is necessary like that. But she also did feel ordinary, according to her she was just an ordinary woman who did not deserve excessive praise.
"I love you more." Riki held the red face of his wife and kissed Holy forehead gently and long.
Even though you hurt your heart, you still treat her well. You are really sincere.
After breakfast, Holy returned busy making milk coffee for her husband to the office.
"This is your coffee." Sacred thrusting mini flask.
"Wahhh asikk. Later if I miss you, I just hug this flask."
"Don't you, if your employees see you later think you're not sane anymore." Saints chuckle.
"Give up, they won't understand how I feel." Riki poked his shoulders uncaring. The mini-thermos were already in his hands.
After saying goodbye to Merly's mother, Riki left for her company. Raisya also took part and left immediately. Now the Holy and the mother-in-law are in that room.
"Ma..Today Sister Dara may come too late, she says there is a sudden business that is impossible to leave." The saint sat on the edge of the bed.
Mama Merly's body is still stiff. His eyes occasionally blinked. His lips still could not be opened. But his hearing still works well. Be able to clearly grasp any words that come out of the Holy mouth.
"Now I want to prepare warm water for mama to take a bath. Later if Sister Dara still has not come, I will ask for help bi Fatma to bring mama to the bathroom."
Ms. Merly just blinked her eyes slowly gesturing that she agreed. Saints smiled and immediately moved.
"For a moment, ma..." The saint walked into the bathroom.
Ms. Merly came back crying in silence. Tears flooded his entire face. Her chest is getting tighter. Wanted to cry loudly. Want to immediately hug his daughter-in-law and say the apologies and regrets that have now filled his heart. Hate for hurting Holy's heart always haunts his mind. He shouldn't have done that stupid thing. What he regretted the most was when he told Saints to leave Riki's life.
I am so sorry for being cruel to a good son-in-law like Saints. I hope he will forgive me.
After a few minutes, Suci came out of the bathroom and approached Ms. Merly.
"Mama ? astaghfirullah, ma...!" Sacred hysterically saw the reality that was in front of him.
His eyes widened as his heart raged. What exactly happened ? a pile of thoughts overlapped in his brain. Raised many questions mixed with concern for her mother-in-law.
