Mannered Doctor Zi's Husband

Nazia's Grief

Imagining about a million dreams accompanied the wait all this time. Tragically eroded already leaving only good memories. Hope the idol comes to accompany together to realize all the dreams. Clenching, hugging tightly, until asleep until the sun picks up with its rays never realized again.

Moist eyes and hoarse voice framed everyone's face especially on Nazia. He was so screwed up, devastated, over the events he had just faced. Still holding Abel's cold body. Nazia left a small Isaac and a tear that almost dried up. No more roars like that, his body was too tired and weak on top of Abel's stiff body.

Mr. Bram did not have the heart to see the condition of his wife and prospective daughter-in-law. He chose to keep the loss in his heart. Mr. Bram must look strong for the sake of the two women before him.

"Son, please release Abel. This is your life line and he. We go home to prepare everything." Mr. Bram patted his son-in-law's shoulder to channel power.

Nazia did not respond, she was silent expressionlessly. The news of Abel's death has spread. Vino was surprised to hear Abel's last news, he regretted why he did not choose to stay in the hospital just now.

Abel's superior came with Vino to the hospital, he asked Mr. Bram if Abel's funeral process was carried out militarily for the last honor considering Abel was a soldier.

It was also welcomed by Mr. Bram and his family. Time has shown at 5 a.m. The process of repatriating Abel's body has been completed, the family car and relatives of the motorcade behind the ambulance car to the residence of Mr. Bram.

Nazia silently sat in the ambulance accompanied by Zevin and Bram. The others went with Vian and Vino. At home the house assistants welcomed the arrival of the bodies with their cries. Especially Mr. Toto the driver who picked up Abel at the airport. Abel's body was placed in the living room.

Rayya pulled Nazia's weak body into his embrace. "We face this the same - same, rest !" His voice stroked the girl's shoulder.

Nazia didn't respond. His gaze could not be separated from the stiff body in front of him. There were no more tears on her cheeks just a blank and hollow look. Zevin came to bring sweet tea to Nazia, followed by the housekeepers who served tea to their employers.

"Zi, drink it" Zevin pointed the glass at his lips. The woman was silent neither rejecting nor accepting. Rayya takes over the glass from Zevin's hand.

"Zi, warm your stomach first. You'll be sick" Rayya said.

Nazia shook her head weakly and rejected the glass Rayya was holding. Without a warning Zevin held a weak body towards Abel's room.

"Ay, come on ! Help Zi clean up"

Rayya nodded and followed Zevin. Nazia did not rebel because she was too tired. Zevin puts it on the mattress slowly and will return down to join the others. But Nazia's hand stopped him.

"Zev, Abel is evil. He came to leave, he left me. At night I pray for him but this is what I get." Nazia was crying again.

Zevin cupped Nazia's face with his palm gently rubbing the girl's cheek using his thumb. "Take care of yourself, look Abel slept in your arms last night. You have to be tough for him."

Rayya came to help Nazia prepare. Zevin has everything ready, he asks Vian to buy them a change of clothes because it is impossible to go home.

...----------------...

Time has shown that at nine in the morning everyone is ready. Including Nazia has changed clothes, but the condition is still the same as before. It happened to Serly's mother.

Many people came to offer their condolences directly. And gave support to the family and Nazia, but she was silent.

After the preparation process, the body was taken to the cemetery. As planned, Abel was buried militarily and led directly by his leadership.

Every minute of the funeral procession is so lived by the whole family and other relatives. Point by point their tears re-drenched their cheeks. With the exception of Nazia, she silently looked straight ahead.

When they were done, everyone had already left the cemetery one by one. Nazia was still at home sitting on the side of the mound of land that was still wet. His hands trembled rubbing Abel's name there.

" Rest !" He said taking a slow breath. "Thank you for being with me for two years." He was silent for a moment and said. "You know these six months apart from you taught me a lot of things." She rubbed the tears on her cheeks. "One of them is used to being without you by my side, but I'm not ready without you in my life. What else is left like this." His body was shaken crying again. His hands tidied up the expanse of fresh flowers and arranged them neatly. "I've made many plans for us on your return, but God's plan is more beautiful." Nazia patted her claustrophobic chest and then said. "Not a day before we met just a few hours ago I hugged you, touched you. And talk a lot. Now you're gone again and you'll never come back. I must have missed you so much and then where would I look for you?" The longer Nazia spoke, the more her emotions went up and down. Sometimes we cry and sometimes laugh fake.

"ZI !"

Zevin runs from under the tree in the footsteps of Rayya and Vian. They immediately approached Nazia, who was lying on top of Abel's tomb.

"Zi, what's wrong with you?" Rayya came back crying to see the friend unconscious.

"Please there, Zev." Vian's words calmed Rayya down.

"We're going home to Aunt Mira."

Zevin's holding Nazia. Vian nods and takes over the wheel, Rayya opens the car door for Zevin. They left the cemetery.

...----------------...

"Come to her room !" Decide Vino from the kitchen.

Zevin lays Nazia down slowly and checks in after Rayya arrives with her briefcase.

"How, Son?" Ask Mira's mom worried.

"His blood pressure is low, dehydrated and tired"

"Do we need to go to the hospital, Zev?" Ask Vino.

"No need, Vin. There is still preparation in my car. Aunty better dress, Zi. Replaced first, I'll take the infusion." Zevin left the room.

Mira's mother changed Nazia's clothes that had been dirty, before long Zevin also went back into the room. He put an infusion and injected some of the necessary drugs in the infusion tube.

"Zev, is it okay to take care, Zi. At home ? It could be called breaking the code of ethics." Rayya approached Zevin who was still doing treatment.

"I'm in charge. Trust me."Since Abel's departure this man has looked serious there is no joke as usual.

An hour passed by Nazia slowly opened her eyes. While observing his surroundings. He felt very dizzy and tired which was incredible.

"Are you awake?"

"I'm why, Zev?" Nazia got up and tried to sit down.

"You fainted, your blood pressure was low and dehydrated." Clearly Zevin took a slow breath before continuing his sentence "Zi. I know you are grieving right now, the loss of a very meaningful person in your life. But how well you can control yourself and pay attention to the people around you." Zevin said softly.

"You mean?"

"Tante Mira the pressure went up after seeing you pass out earlier. Everyone loves Abel. I did too, we all lost. But lamenting his departure is not good either" Zevin continued.

Nazia was upset by Zevin's words. "You never feel like you love someone, Zev ! Then it's easy for you to say it all" he said flatly with an annoyed look.

Zevin turned to sit on the edge of the bed.

"I know how it feels !" He looked into Nazia's eyes.

They were silent for a moment. Let the atmosphere return to normal.

"How's mama doing?"

"It's getting better, you have to be strong for your mother and also for Aunt Serly. I'm sure you can learn something behind this incident" Zevin advised.

Nazia was trying to digest Zevin's words. Before long Rayya came with a tray of food. Then sit on the edge of the bed.

"Zi, you eat first and you too, Zev. We all need a break."

The man nodded then walked out of the room and joined Vian, Vino and Mira's mother. Mira's mother's condition improved after receiving treatment from Zevin.

In the room, Nazia stared blankly ahead yet intending to touch her food at all. Rayya grabs the spoon and intends to feed.

"Why is fate so cruel to me ? It's all ruined. Abel came home but not to me." Nazia dropped her body on Rayya's lap.

"Take care of yourself, everything is arranged by God. Perhaps, the path to your happiness should pass the test first. Likewise with me, I don't know what kind of test I will face later" Rayya gently rubbed the back of Nazia who was shaking from crying.

"I got used to it without seeing it. Because, I believe that I can see her for the rest of my life after we get married. But viciously, he gave a terrible surprise like this."
