Merapi Never Ingkar Janji 2 (The Return of the Sultan)
SS. 74. The Unexpected Meeting
In light of last night's events, Al, who was still afraid of something happening with his future baby, requested that his wife check this morning as well.
"But Mas, my check-up schedule is still next week." Resist.
"I just want to make sure that you and our baby-to-be are okay." Al kekeh said.
"I've eaten Mas, don't feel pain anymore." His words are no less chuckling.
"Yes, but at least there's been an examination from the doctor. So it's more clear how your condition is from a health standpoint." Ocehnya Al at length.
"Yes, but_"
"Tata, there's no harm in you checking early. Let all be relieved, and it can be ascertained that you and the future grandchild of Eyang are in good health." Mother Arum said while blinking one eye.
As a sign to Tata according to what Al said.
"Tu, listen to what Mother says." Al said he felt winning had the support of the Mother.
Tata smiled amusedly at the manner of her husband. At this time Al may enter vase sensitive, where everything he sees and feels must be in accordance with his heart.
Although he was sometimes overprotective, it was one of the attitudes he showed, in lieu of a deep sense of concern.
"Want Mommy to deliver ?" Ask Mother to offer.
"No Mother, thank you. Later between Dya and the school, Tata stopped by to check." Answer Tata.
"Let Al alone take Bun." Al said interrupting.
Tata and Mommy looked at each other and threw smiles at each other.
"Papa, when are we going to see Gina ?"
The question that Dya had been asking since then, he finally conveyed it as well.
"Let's love, we'll check Mama's content."
"Yeeee ... " Papa Al's reply made Nindya's heart relieved.
"Who's girl dear ?" Eyang Arum asked inquisitively.
"That's Mommy, Regina's son, Miss Hanifa." Answer Tata.
"Hanifa ?" Ask Mommy while thinking, feeling familiar with the name 'Hanifa'.
"Yes, Nindya's friend at school. Yesterday he fell off the swing, and it's been two days in the hospital." Mama Tata said, helping to answer Eyang's question while Nindya was enjoying a bribe for breakfast in the morning.
"Oh, pity. Nindya be careful when playing yes. Don't let Regina's fall repeat itself to anyone else." Eyeang Advice.
Nindya nodded, agreeing with what Eyang had said. But hearing the name Hanifa, Mommy so remembered with friends Almarhumah Kinanti in the High School, who used to often play in this house when they were both alone.
Hanifa is not just a friend to Kinanti, but already more than a brother. In fact, the sympathy and attention that Hanifa showed to Al, made Mommy had wanted to match the two.
Mother was disappointed, when Al decided to reach his ideals to the land of people. And that's why distance is a reason why their closeness stops.
Until finally, Hanifa chose a man she knew from the introductions between families. It can be said, if they undergo a marriage that starts from an arranged marriage.
However, as time went on, the seeds of love arose in both.
"What's Mother ?" Tata asked who saw the mimic changes in the face of Mother Arum.
"What, oh it's okay." Answer Mother nervously.
Mother continued her breakfast, which had stopped.
"Reg ... Al, may Mommy accompany Nindya with her friend ?"
For a moment Al thought, what Mother was thinking.
'Why suddenly Mother wants to join Nindya's friend ? Is it because the name of the boy's mother is the same as Kinan's best friend at High School ?' Al thought in his heart.
"Al ?"
Mother's call disperse her daydream.
"Hmmm ... Oh yes, Mother." Al half in doubt.
'What if what's on my mind, it's a reality ?' Thought Al was back.
Not much different from Anita, who inevitably had to be suspicious of the existence of Hanifa.
'What's right, Hanifa Mama Gina and Hanifa Kinanti's best friends are the same person ?' Ask Tata in my heart.
'But what is it about Hanifa, if they are the same person ?' Comment on Tata's other side.
***
Nindya's learning hours have ended, this is the time Tata changed to check himself to the doctor. Incidentally his examination schedule, along with the patient's clock. So Dya can all make it to Regina's ward.
"Yes, while waiting for Mama Tata to get a turn check, how about we go to the inpatient room of Dya's friend ?" Tanya Eyang Arum made an offer.
"Eeehhhmmm .. can also be Eyang." Reply spirit.
But suddenly his eyes dimmed, when his gaze was fixed on Papa Al and Mama Tata.
"Yes dear, Dya made Regina the same as the previous one. Let's not wait here." Said Mama Tata.
There was only permission from the Papa that made Nindya still not move from her seat.
However, one blink of Al's eyes already represented all the questions in Nindya's heart.
"Thank You Papa. Dya promise, Dya won't be naughty." He said as he jumped down from the chair in the waiting room.
"Hhhhmm." Mumbled Al while nodding and rubbing his daughter's hair.
"Mother the road first." Pamit Bunda Arum's.
He walked with Nindya to the hospital room that Tata showed him, before leaving the waiting room to check the contents.
"This is Eyang's room." Show Nindya
A first-class inpatient room chosen to treat Regina's recovery.
"Assalamu'alaikum." Sapa Nindya while slowly opening the glass door that connects the room with the front hallway.
"Wa'alaikumsalam." Answer one of the people in the room.
Nindya had already dashed in first, while Eyang Arum was still taking off his footwear outside.
"Tante, Gina how are you ?" Ask Nindya to Hanifa.
"Alhamdulillah, Regina is better. God willing, tomorrow we can go home." Answer Hanifa.
"Eh, but by the way, who's Nindya here ?" Tanya Oma Gina, the mother of Hanifa who happened to accompany Regina in the hospital.
"Yes the same as Oma." Answer gently.
"Assalamu'alaikum."
Along with the greeting of Eyang Arum in the doorway that had been slightly opened.
"Wa'alaikumsalam." Reply Oma and Hanifa simultaneously.
It was not only Mother Arum who was stunned to see who the person before her was right now.
"Jeng Ratri, Hanifa." Lirih.
"Jeng Arum." Sapa Oma who is known by the name Ratri.
They looked at each other, not believing. For a long time they did not meet. Not just days, even years. Not face to face, or just asking for news.
And today, the second generation of Mother Arum brought them back together. In the past, Mother Arum and Mama Ratri were friends. Both as a co-worker, as well as a friend chat together.
So did Hanifa and Kinanti, they were two inseparable companions in their time. Even things they never expected would happen to their second granddaughter. The friendship between Nindya and Regina.
"What's up ?"
"Thank God, as you see. You alone, how are you Ratri, long time no see."
"I'm still the same as Arum used to be, nothing less than anything." Oma Ratri replied with a sweet smile.
A similar conversation as before, when they are still both pursuing careers together. The two hugged each other again, letting go of the miss.
Satisfied to ask news with his mother, the eyes of Mother Arum were fixed on Hanifa.
"Hanifa." Sapa Mommy stretches out both of her hands.
Hanifa welcomed him with pleasure. This hug, he longs to miss. In the past, when she was depressed, the embrace of Mother Arum who always calmed her heart.
'It turns out, what I was thinking really came true. The Hanifa that Tata told me about was the same person, Hanifa Kinanti's best friend.' Mumbles Mother in the heart.
