“If you can know why Om is so good to me?” Rey arrived – arrived asking so. Naturally, they are two foreigners who have not known for long but the kindness of Edi who wanted to finance his college feels a little excessive. Not that Rey doubted Edi's kindness, but it was just a question of Rey's curiosity.
“I used to have an older brother – boys, the mind – the same as me, the same as you too, so doctor. We're 5 years apart. When we just graduated High School, our parents got into an accident and died. I was still Junior High at that time. As my parents left, then at that time their responsibility was borne by my brother as the eldest son-“ Edi paused and closed. He felt a tightness in his chest recalling his difficult time back then.
“She also passed the medical college entrance test at that time but not so she took it because it turns out our parents' business is in trouble, but we have a problem, and the money that was prepared for our college and school at that time was borrowed money. My brother finally worked odd jobs to support me and sent me to school, I never knew for sure what he was doing. But every time I went home I never heard him complain, thank God I also got a scholarship to college until it was finished. But surely it will take a fee also for the daily life of his college, and it is still he who finances. Sometimes I am sad to remember that he could not go to college because of me. But he always encouraged me and forbade me to think like that, forbidding me from working. Until finally thank God I graduated I continued s2 koas and so on until really becoming a doctor, but instead he was my first patient. Brother got brain cancer, I'm fucked up. I realize this must be a pattern of his life that was not awake during the life of both of us, surely because he was too hard working. I could not save him, he died before even feeling my success at least” Edi stopped again, his tears seemed to have stemmed and almost fell.
“I feel lost my life, just like you. Life doesn't seem to mean anything because the only – people we have are gone. But ap akita is not evil if you have to give up because of the sadness, evil because the struggle of those who have gone will be in vain – because of the despair. So instead of wasting it with sadness, I turned those tears into passion and reason to rise up and make my older brother and parents proud of where they are now. In short, I see myself as well as my sister in you. Young people who are still school spirit with ideals – noble minds like me as well as hardworking young people like my brother. I am moved to help you, make your dream come true. Besides, since the first look at you, I remembered my sister, her stature and carriage are similar to yours, well and mannered” finished.
Edi's tears had now flowed past his cheeks. What an unexpected past if you look at Edi's life now, it turns out he was once difficult with a sad experience with his brother. That experience now he made the foundation to become a person who cares and likes to help others.
Rey was there getting washed away. He is now more aware, life is fair. Everyone has their own problems. True.he must not give up so easily. She was raised by her mother to be a useful person in the future. Not otherwise. The mother's struggle against her now will continue. By ourselves.
“Om” Excite Rey.
“Iya?” Of course Edi said.
“I think...” Edi turned his head and waited for the sentence hanging Rey just now
“I will take the scholarship” He said steadily.
Edi nodded proudly with a smile.
“Good, Om will help your daily costs there, and please not to be rejected” said Edi.
Rey shook her head “Thank you very much in advance, but in Germany this day to day was also borne, so there will be more practice and while working also the count, so there will be more, it will be salaried equally all and is enough to meet a day – days there, let alone me facilitated including dormitory and meals, so InsyaAllah will be safe” Rey explained.
“MashaAllah. Hope everything is smooth ya” Edi said.
“Aamiinnn. Thank you very much Om”
“For?” Ask Edi.
“Everything.” Rey answered briefly at first and then returned to talk after a few seconds of silence.
“For his help to my Mother, To take care of my Mother, To care for me. For Om's advice today, honestly it made me realize that I can't stop here. Thank you for all the kindness Om. I believe the late brother Om is proud because his sister has succeeded in becoming a doctor, not only Om's noble profession, but Om also became a very noble person”
Edi smile. His right hand lifted and patted Rey's shoulder gently.
“You are a good boy Rey, may your spirit never be extinguished until whenever”
“Then excuse me first and will start preparing everything from now” Rey said while standing and followed by Edi.
“May you hope it works ya” Said Edi ended with a helping of his right hand to Rey.
Rey welcomed him well.
“Aaminn Om, please do’ it and once again Thank You for everything” Either how many times Rey said Thank You, because it was a very big feeling he felt in the person in front of him.
“Definitely. You are good – well there, do not hesitate to tell me if you need something. I'm your family now, you're not alone. Remember that!” Edi said.
Rey gave a little laugh. “Iya Om. Thank You” Answer later
Edi sighed he was getting tired “Don't Thank You continue, bosen I heard it”
Rey again chuckled and harder this time, he nodded assuring Edi.
“Then I excuse you to go home first now yes Om” Pamit Rey.
“Iya heart – hearts. I wait for you in Indonesia and become a better doctor than me, Doctor Reyhan” said Edi teased at once so do’a also because it is also what Edi hopes for Rey.
“Om can be. I will try my best” Removing their hand department and Rey also said hello before – really left the room Edi.
“Assalamu’alaikum” Rey said
Wa’alaikumsalam. Edi and Luna answered at the same time.
Ehh? Rey and Edi turned to Edi's desk where Luna was sitting. They had forgotten that there was still Luna in the room, from just now just silent but suddenly his voice came to answer greetings. Surprise Edi and Rey.
