Love for Almira

41. Condolence

Almira stood by the roadside waiting for her husband to get out of the car. From a distance Almira looked at the guests who had come to the house of the deceased Tomy's parents. Almira used to come to the house as a daughter-in-law and now she comes as a filial guest to her former father-in-law's house.

“Ayo,” said Faisal once out of the car.

Faisal was about to walk but his hand was pulled by Almira.

“Why?” faisal asked, looking at Almira like a doubter.

“Almira scared, Mas,” replied Almira.

“Fear why? You are not the one who killed Tomy,” Faisal said.

“Almira is afraid they are blaspheming Almira,” Almira said.

“You take it easy, there is Mas beside you,” Faisal said then clasped his wife's hand giving calm to Almira.

Faisal took Almira by the hand and led her to the house of Tomy's parents.

“Assalamualaikum,” said Faisal when entering the home page of Mr. Dibyo and Ibu Giatri.

“Waalaikumsalam,” replied everyone who was sitting in the home page of Tomy's parents.

“Please enter. Mr. Dibyo and Ms. Giatry are inside,” said the fathers who were sitting on the home page.

Faisal and Almira immediately walked towards the terrace of the house. Mr. Dibyo was standing at the door receiving condolences from the guests. Faisal and Almira approached Mr. Dibyo.

“According to my condolences, Om,” said Faisal while greeting Mr. Dibyo.

“Thank you,” said Mr. Dibyo.

Then Almira clenched her hands together in front of her chest.

“According to my condolences, Om,” says Almira.

“Thank you, Almira,” said Mr. Dibyo.

“I'm sorry for Tomy's mistake he made to you. Whether intentional or unintentional,” said Mr. Dibyo while holding back tears.

“Almira has forgiven everything, Om,” Almira said.

“Thank you, Almira,” said Mr. Dibyo.

“Almira to Aunt first, Om,” says Almira.

“Come in, Aunt is inside,” said Mr. Dibyo.

Almira and Faisal entered Mr. Dibyo's house. In the middle room, Ibu Giatri was receiving condolences from her relatives.

Almira and Faisal approach the Giatry Mother.

“According to my condolences, Auntie,” says Faisal.

“Thank you,” replied Ms. Giatry.

“According to my condolences, Auntie,” says Almira.

The mother of Giatry immediately embraced Almira.

“Excuse Tomy, Miraaa...,” says Ibu Giatri while crying.

“Ngngng...MuskalTomy that already hurt you.”.

The mother of Giatri still hugged Almira while crying.

“Tante, Almira has forgiven all the mistakes of Mr. Tomy,” replied Almira while rubbing the back of the Giatry Mother.

Then the Giatry Mother let go of her embrace.

“Tomy wanted to refer you, but it was too late to say you were married to someone else,” said Giatri.

“Iya, Aunt. Almira is married to Mas Faisal,” replied Almira.

“Tomy is desperate to hear you're married again. He can't believe you're married. Almost every night he went to the pub. And in the early hours of the morning Tomy came home drunk until the accident happened. Mira, Tomy was really desperate after you left,”, My Giatry mother said in tears.

Astagfirullahaladzim Almira said in his heart.

Tomy Almira knew never drunk like that.

“That's patient, yes Aunt. Mr. Tomy has calmed down there,” Almira said.

“Thank you, Almira,” says Ms. Giatry.

Then Almira leaves Giatri's mother and approaches Tita who is crying next to Tomy's body.

“Tita, I am so sorry,” said Almira.

“I'm sorry, Mom. Who hurt Mom,” said Tita.

“Have forgotten Tita. Now I am married to Faisal,” Almira said.

Almira rubbed Tita's stomach with a smile.

Almira comes out of Mr. Dibyo's house while looking for her husband. Almira saw her husband sitting outside and talking to his friends. Almira approached her husband.

“It's done takziahnya?” faisal asked as Almira approached Faisal.

“Already,” Reply Almira.

“Gue first, yes,” say goodbye Faisal to his friends.

“Eh, where are you going?” ask Adit.

“You to office. If I take another leave and get scolded by the boss's mother,” Faisal replied.

Then Faisal clasped Almira's palm and led Almira into the car. Once in the car Faisal opened the car door for Almira. Almira got into the car and soon Faisal got into the car. Eventually Faisal's car rolled down the highway.

“Mas, pity Tita yes. Almira could not bear to see it. What's the fate of Tita and her baby, huh Mas?” Almira.

“Mas doesn't know either, Almira. However the decision is in the hands of Mr. Dibyo and Ms. Giatri,” Faisal replied while focusing on driving.

“That's all I heard Tomy didn't want to marry Tita. He just wants to be responsible for the child in the womb Tita,” said Faisal while turning to Almira for a moment.

“How the hell is Mr Tomy? Want to make it want but do not want to be responsible,” grumbled Almira.

“Maybe Tomy hopes to refer back to you. So he doesn't want to marry Tita,” Faisal said.

“Hah anyway who would like to refer back to him,” grumbled Almira.

Faisal turned to Almira and smiled.

“Iya Mas know, you just love Mas,” said Faisal.

Almira sighed and turned to the car window. Is this all in return for what Tomy and Tita did that hurt her? Almira forgave them and forgot all about it. Because now he is living happily with his husband and children.

In the afternoon when Almira came home from office she was greeted by her twin children. They greeted him on the front porch.

“Nda puyang...,” exclaims Amelia with excitement.

“Bunbun.

Almira approached her twin toddlers.

“Assalamualaikum,” says Almira.

“Waalacumcalam,” Akbar and Amelia answered.

Almira immediately hugged the two toddlers. Kissing the cheeks of the two toddlers one by one.

“Mother kangen with you guys,” says Almira.

“Amel tangen Nda,” says Amelia.

“Albal uga,” says Akbar.

“Only Mother hugged? Dad not in the hug?” faisal asked who was standing behind Almira.

“Aya..,” exclaimed Akbar and Amelia then hugged Faisal's leg.

Faisal smiled as he stroked the heads of Akbar and Amelia.

Naura came out of the house and approached Almira an Faisal and kissed Almira's hand and kissed Faisal's.

“Dad, tomorrow Big Brother shared a rapot,” said Naura after kissing Faisal's hand.

“Take the same rapot Mother, yes! Tomorrow I have an evaluation meeting,” Faisal said.

“Yes, it's okay,” replied Naura.

“Tante, next time you make a lot of cake and pudding! His happy brother is just a little. Depleted by Akbar and Amelia,” exclaimed Naura while pouting.

“Lost the pudding? Though Aunty made five pudding pans with various flavors,” said Almira was shocked.

“Mbak-Mbak and Aunty Bibi are also happy just one piece. The rest was spent by Akbar and Amelia. Ma'am said, Akbar and Amelia if not given a cry pudding continue to want to Auntie. So it has to be given to keep crying,” Naura said.

Almira turned to Akbar and Amelia.

“Albal want to cama Bunbun,” says Akbar with spoiled.

“Amel uga,” says Amelia.

“Kan if afternoon can be the same Mother,” said Almira gave understanding to Akbar and Amelia.

“His talk continues inside the house! Soon magrib,” sahut Faisal.

While Amelia pushed Almira from behind. Finally, Almira inevitably entered the house followed by Faisal and Naura from behind.
