A sad departure

Momo continued to lean on Ayatha, until they wanted to go down, but Momo was still leaning.

" Momo, we're playing it all right now" said Ayatha

But momo did not respond, when Ayatha wanted to see him, momo fell on Ayatha's lap. Bloody nose.

Ayatha and Andra who saw this immediately panicked, Andra immediately held momo out from the spot of the ringleader, running towards the exit. Ayatha followed andra from behind.

Assistant Wang who saw Andra running towards him immediately called the medics who were ready to standby from earlier, the doctor and nurse then greeted Momo's body quickly, they immediately took Momo into the ambulance and left.

Andra immediately pulled Ayatha into her car, quickly Assistant Wang directly drove the car, following the ambulance from behind.

The atmosphere was tense, Ayatha's breathing had not even been regular because of the running. Andra also looked worried. Without them noticing during the walk they continued to hold hands.

Ayatha waited anxiously outside the action room, she could only sit while playing her hand.

Andra was calmer, she tried to calm herself down. He was just standing by the door of the room.

Shortly the doctor came out of the action room. Andra and Ayatha stood up.

" How is he doing?" Ayatha.

The doctor's face looked gloomy, seeing that Ayatha took a step back, she seemed familiar with the situation. Could it?.

" We tried our best, but he could not be saved, we are sorry" said the doctor

Ayatha was speechless, her breathing seemed to stop, she was suffocating, just pecking, looking at the doctor without any expression. No way, there is no way this will happen again, Ayatha thought.

Andra already knew what the doctor was going to talk about, she was just biting her inner lips, she looked straight at Ayatha.

Ayatha was still in shock, she was speechless, just stupefied, her eyes blank, even though the doctor had left, Ayatha remained straight ahead.

" Ayathas? " andra said reprimanding Ayatha who was still empty of sight.

Ayatha looked towards Andra, the eyes were teary, Ayatha's lips were trembling. It hurt so much, Ayatha walked away.

" Ayatha, "said Andra who was chasing Ayatha, at the pull of Ayatha's hand made Ayatha stop, but Ayatha only looked at Andra blankly.

Ayatha hates times like this, she hates when doctors say her loved ones are gone, too often, she is in this situation too often.

" Momo is unlikely to die, " said Ayatha lirih staring at Andra.

Andra was silent, her face was gloomy, she did not know what to do now.

" Momo is not sick anymore" Andra told Ayatha.

" He couldn't have died, he just played with me, he just fell asleep, I'm sure he slept in my hands, " said Ayatha crying hysterically, spilling all the tightness she felt in her chest. Her tears were flowing, spilling unstoppable.

Andra who saw that was not hearty, Andra pulled Ayatha into her arms, in her embrace Ayatha tightly because she was as sad as Ayatha, but tried not to show it.

Ayatha was still crying bitterly, why would everyone she cared about leave? Old man, Grandma, Yosa and now Momo. What was his mistake until God did all this to him? What is wrong if he loves someone? was he indeed very unlucky, it was indeed his fault, he who made everyone nearby leave. Ayatha hated herself.

" Be calm, I'm here, " said Andra tightening his embrace on Ayatha.

Hearing that, Ayatha who had been crying, fell silent, Andra!! he does not want Andra to have the same fate as them, if he continues to be near Andra. God will take it from Ayatha.

Ayatha immediately broke away from Andra, leaving Andra shocked and confused as to why with Ayatha.

Yes, he cannot make Andra leave, Ayatha will also die if Andra dies.

" I want to go home, " said Ayatha turning herself away as soon as possible from Andra.

Andra looked at the behavior of Ayatha who turned 180 degrees, only speechlessly confused.

He immediately chased after Ayatha, pulling her arm.

" I'll drive you, "Andra said seriously

Ayatha fell silent, Andra did not wait for Ayatha's reply, she immediately pulled Ayatha out.

" I want to sit behind, " said Ayatha coldly.

" Alright, " said Andra opening the door for Ayatha.

After she closed the door, Andra immediately drove her car home.

...............................................

Today it was cloudy, very dark, the wind was blowing very hard.

Today Momo is buried, but Ayatha only sees her from afar. She was very familiar with this atmosphere, full of tears, everyone wearing black clothes, gathered, looking for the last time.

It's at times like this that everyone will say about all your kindness, isn't it too late? What did they see when we were around? Isn't that ironic?.

Not many came to Momo's funeral, only the caretaker of the orphanage and also the children of the orphanage. What if later he died the atmosphere would be this lonely as well? Thought Ayatha.

He could no longer cry, although the pain was very much in his chest, but his tears did not want to drip anymore, maybe her tears have dried up because they are spilled too often at events like this, or Ayatha is just immune.

" You don't want to go there?" andra said suddenly d isampingnya, making Ayatha stare at him.

Andra looked at Ayatha, her lips paler than before, her face gloomy, but more painful to Andra, Ayatha's eyes seemed empty, like she was losing her radiance.

" No, "said Ayatha as she was

" why? " say Andra

Ayatha fell silent, she threw away her gaze from Andra. Her heart ached, she could not imagine if she should attend Andra's funeral later.

" I will marry Maxi, " said Ayatha throwing her hands at Andra.

The wind blew, shaking the trees around the cemetery. Cold piercing. But nothing can overcome the coldness of Ayatha's words.

Andra was startled, it felt like something was pounding her chest hard, she was silent looking at Ayatha, still not believing what Ayatha had said just now. She's getting married to maxi?

" What are you talking about?" andra said she didn't believe it

" i've agreed to marry Maxi, yesterday I called her saying that, " said Ayatha

Andra looked at the gloomy Ayatha, she could not say anything, how could Ayatha accept maxi? How is he going to marry Maxi, and why is he with her? Why does it feel so empty.

Ayatha smiled a little, then left from there, Andra was still silent, the wind was blowing the falling leaves, Andra could only see Ayatha slowly leaving her in pain.
