Love From Space

Died Mother

Nura saw Mom smiling behind the mask. That smile, strangely made Nura's heart so rustle strangely.

Once again a strange premonition flashed through his mind.

'Duh..why do I not think that anyway? Mother looks good, even though she still wears a mask and oxygen hose.' murmured inner Nura.

"You know? I used to say that I want to have twin daughters. And you know what you are, son? When you were little, your face was very similar. It's like twins. According to you, you are twins born in different years.."

Mom paused her sentence for a few seconds. His gaze seemed to glare into the sky of the room. To something that Nura and Kak Eci can't see.

"And. according to Mother, you also have a similar personality. because it is also possible since childhood you often do not get along.." continued Mother telling me.

Nura and Kak Eci immediately bowed when they heard the story of Mother.

"Because of that, Ci.. Ra's.. Mother hopes you will always live well.please help each other.. Even if later for example there's no mother.."

Until here, Nura and Kak Eci immediately looked up and roared in protest.

"Maac! Don't talk about it..!" The protests of the two brothers were almost simultaneously.

Maisng-maisng Nura and Kak Eci then felt when Mom's hands were soft. The two brothers then exchanged looks.

There is an unsaid sentence but it can be conveyed through the eyes of the two girls. That what Mother said today was something they will always remember until later.

"Eci.." call Mom now with a voice that sounds weaker and weaker.

My face turned slightly towards her.

"Yy..yeah, Mommy..?" Sahut Kak Eci while approaching the mouth of the Mother in order to hear more clearly the sentence spoken by the Mother.

"Emak still wants to see you get married, son.."

Tests.

My mother's tears fell on the pillow. Seeing it, it had made the eyes of Nura and Kak Eci condense as well.

"Mak.. don't cry.." beg Eci with a choked voice.

"Emak. want to meet your mother's grandchild.. Mom is afraid.Mom time is no longer much, son.." said Mom began to falter because fatigue regulate breath.

"Mom!" Seru Nura and Kak Eci returned together.

The two brothers could not bear to see the sadness on Mom's face. Now both of them are crying too.

"Mom's message, son.if you.meet a man.."

Again my mother paused her sentence.

"Receive him with all his yes, Ci. respect him. obey him. because a good man will definitely bring.goodness also.for his wife.. or rich.want he..duda.or virgin.status in the world it is meaningless.when compared with.noble his morals.that he has.." said Mother began panting.

"Mak! Huh, Mak.. Mom rest first, huh? Do not tire first. "tutur Kak Eci again asked Mother to stop talking again.

Mom just shook her head slowly. After that his gaze turned towards Nura. To the youngest pangais, Mother also left her tips.

"You too, Ra.. the school that..dangkana.receive advice from.your brothers..keep your sister, Tio.and.achieve your own happiness..in a good way.."

A moment later, Mom gasped like she was having trouble breathing.

Kontan alone Nura and Kak Eci became panicked instantly. Both of them shouted at the same time.

"Emery! Mak! My mother!" Call Nura many times.

She did not seem to hear the call from her daughter. He was still looking unfocused to a point above the sky of the room.

"Mura! Wait for Mom first! I'll call the doctor first!" Shouted Brother Eci who then immediately shot out of the room.

As soon as Eci came out, she immediately informed Kak Lili and the other people waiting outside the room about the condition of Mother at that time.

"Innalillah! Call the doctor!" Excited Brother Lili with a precarious look.

"Let me call the doctor. You just wait for Mom inside, Dek. You too Yo!" Tell Alif to offer help.

All nodded, agreeing to the advice of Brother Alif. The husband of Kak Lili immediately ran and looked for a nurse or doctor. While Kak Lili, Kak eci, Tio and Yon rushed into the nursery of Emak.

Mother's condition is getting more concerning now. His gaze was completely empty. Mother seemed unaware of the crowd of her own sons and daughters around her at this time. He stared at the ceiling of the room.

And, a moment later, Nura who was closest to Mom's mouth heard a sentence coming out of Mom's mouth. Although with a faltering voice, but Nura could recognize the sentence.

"Asy. hadu.allaa.ilaaha il.lallah.wa..asyhadu.anna.muhammadar.rosulullah.."

And

psh..

Mom finally breathed her last breath witnessed by all her sons and daughters.

"Mom!!"

"Dog!!"

"Mac!!!"

"Mom!!"

Now. The four people in the room were orphaned. The suffering was so intense that it surrounded each of them.

A cry broke out in the white room that witnessed a servant returning to the lap of his Lord. While his departure has left a trace of deep sadness on every baby he has born.

Lili, Eci, Nura and Tio all four cried while hugging the body of Mother who began to lie stiff in the bed.

***

A few hours later...

Wet red earth..

Drizzling rain fell soaking the cemetery area that was not too far from the house of Nura.

That day, my mother's body was buried. In the afternoon decorated by heavy rain, Mother's body was returned to the lap of the earth.

All his kindness is remembered now. All his advice continues to ring in every image. All his anger when upset continued to dance in the form of a shadow of memories.

Memories that are currently so sweet and painful.

Those tears had dried from the four cheeks of his son and daughter Mother. The four men knew that Mother's return to His day should not be accompanied by tears. Although in fact, the mind and taste of each of them are still very tortured to release the departure of Mother.

But, for the sake of calmness of the spirit of the mother to the afterlife, then the four brothers decided to suspend themselves. They don't want you to come home with an unwilling heart.

Let their wounds be kept in their own hearts. While Mom will go home with a sincere heart to take off.

"Allahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar!"

The voice of the Adhan was heard loudly from inside the lava that had been dug for Mother. The voice belonged to Tio, the youngest.

"Allaahu Akbar! Allah Akbar!"

Tio chanting adzan. The second sentence was taught by Mother to him, after the shahadah. Now, that sentence was also given to Mother to deliver her departure to the afterlife.

A melodious chant, to a very great Mother!
