Maze of Grief
Where are we off to?
"No, I told you what, I just catch a cold. It's also because of your silly idea last night, Pah." Ayu kept nagging at her husband.
"And you're three rounds, Mah." Iksan Refuting.
"But you don't have to bath up too, Pah." Ayu was still nagging in the corridor of Bakti Husada Hospital.
"We haven't tried for a long time in the bathup dear." Iksan continued to defend himself.
"PAPA!!!" Ayu's emotions increased because of the husband's behavior. Suddenly...
"Juice!" Excited someone who was several meters behind Ayu and Iksan.
Both Ayu and Iksan turned to the source of the sound.
"Sari Maam!" Ayu answered with a smile. He ran towards the Brother.
And Iksan just followed in which direction the Wife stepped.
"Bak's sick?" Ayu asked as she hugged Sari.
"Not really." Say it with a slab and smile thinly.
"What are you doing here?" Iksan asked as he shook his brother-in-law's hand. Although he is much older than Sari, Iksan still considers Sari as his Sister-in-law.
"We'll sit down and have a good conversation!" Iksan told the two women.
"I'm gonna go check with the gynecologist." Sari replied after sitting herself in the waiting chair that was in the corridor of the largest hospital in the capital.
"Are you serious? Pah Alfian and Ika will get a sister." Sahut Ayu enthusiastically hugged the Husband.
Iksan could understand that for now his wife's expectations were wrong. If Sari's pregnant, she shouldn't be upset? Thought Iksan.
"It seems you misunderstood." Whisper Iksan slowly.
Ayu let go of her embrace and stared fixedly at Sari. Ayu is asking Dimas Satya Rizki's wife for more explanation.
"Are you pregnant, Mommy?" Ayu asked while tightly holding onto Sari's two arms.
The gel given by Sari was more than enough for Ayu to conclude that the Brother has not been given the mandate by Allah SWT.
"Six years old but I'm not pregnant yet, Yu." Sari's chest started to cramp.
"Yet your windfall Sar." Iksan also strengthened Sari.
"Maybe this is a recompense for my past sins. It's karmaku!" Sari continued to fuss and Ayu hugged her back.
"The father once told me that there is no karma, only bad luck and good fortune. You may not be lucky, brother." Sari and Ayu are indeed two years apart, but in this situation it seems that Ayu is more mature and wise than Sari.
"If Arsi was alive maybe she was a big boy, I could send her to school, her favorite food." Lirih.
DEG
"Your son is still alive, and your beautiful face has fallen to him." Inner Ayu.
Seeing the Wife pensive of course Iksan was very aware of what was filling his mind.
"Arsi is alive, Ma'am." Iksan and Sari were both stunned by Ayu's words.
"Well if you want the dream well sleep deck. Arsi doesn't exist." Hearing Sari's words, Iksan only exhaled with relief because Sari did not believe the Wife's words. Iksan was not ready for the melee that would be created after this matter was revealed.
"No, Arsi you're still there. He's still alive." Ayu silenced as Sari placed her index finger on the lips of the Sister.
"Yes Sari is still alive, she is still there. But here." He said as he carried his index finger towards his chest.
"Bah I'm on trial in an hour. I'll take you to the office, yeah." Ayu then carried her pair of eyes glancing at her rose gold colored clock.
"Oh yes I also had a meeting with Bina about the project yesterday." Is it that easy for Ayu to turn her talk?
"Sari sorry well I have to take Ayu first." Utterances. Iksan pretended to be moody.
"It's okay."
"So I'm saying yes." Sari just nodded and boasted her sweet smile for Ayu as well as Iksan.

"Arsi is alive, Ma'am!"
"No brother, Arsi you are still there! He's alive!"
The sentence that Ayu uttered this morning always circled in the head of a Sari Indah Purnama.
Immediately Sari flanged her head violently to disappear the remark of the Sister.
"Why you, baby?" Asked Dimas who had seen strange waves all day to the Wife.
"It's okay." His answer was short while smacking his thin smile.
But Dimas remains convinced that Sari is hiding something from him.
"I'm your husband, I'm really upsetting you when you're okay or otherwise." Obviously Dimas while caressing his wife's bushy black hair.
Sari also began to tell about her meeting with Ayu as well as Iksan this morning without missing a single part.
"Hahaha Ayu that if ngomomg like not filtered first well? Good thing your brother didn't become a lawyer." Kelakar Dimas's.
"But Ayu tuh seems very sure if Arsi is still alive." Answer Sari lirih.
"Your sister is her hobby, if she is sure that your child is still alive why just talk about it now? If Arsi is still alive who is buried?" The series of questions that Dimas said made Sari's belief in Ayu's statement this morning slowly dimmed.
"Now we pray let your heart calm well. Pray for Arsi there!" Decree Dimas.

"I'm the one who drives!" Ayu said to Iksan and then took the car keys in her husband's grasp.
What is it with Ayu? What the hell is it? Thought that half-century-old lawyer.
"Where are we going, Mah?" Iksan asked as Ayu carried her iron carriage towards the opposite direction of their house.
"Diem does not have to be noisy." Ayu replied without turning her head as she was still focusing on driving.
**There are people who can be nervous about Ayu want to take her Baby Ika Papa where?
