My Choice of Woman

Episode 28's

Farah wants to go home. He does not want to be hospitalized. And prefer outpatient.

Arriving at the house of Ilham. Farah walked in to help Tin go to her room. Inspiration from then on was just silent. He was still digesting the words spoken by Kinan.

Farah was in her room. He wanted to immediately break down the body that was stricken with this pain. Ms. Tin accompanied Farah, but Farah insisted that Ms. Tin rest in her room. Because tomorrow morning there is still a lot of work to be done by Mrs Tin.

“Bu Tin rest in the room only, I already feel good Bu Tin,” said Farah.

“But Miss ..”

“Tomorrow work Bu Tin still a lot, let alone mas Ilham home, maybe tomorrow I can not cook breakfast for as Ilham. Finally, Mrs Tin did the work. Already Bu Tin immediately rest.”

“Good Miss, later if Miss Farah need anything can call me yes Miss,” said Bu Tin.

Farah nodded her ass. Ms. Tin finally left Farah in her room. Farah wanted to rest, she had to get well soon because the day after tomorrow she had to accompany Rahma to check her womb.

Inspiration washed itself. Now he feels fresher than ever. He still terngiang – ngiang words Kinan time in the hospital earlier.

What kind of husband are you? every day your wife always brings you lunch, but you never eat! if I'm to be honest you don't deserve a wife as good and sincere as Farah!

You are so inappropriate for a woman as good as Farah.

Inspiration laid herself in her own bedroom. Wrestling at his own mind.

Am I being too mean to Farah?

Did I torture Farah's feelings too much?

Am I not a good man? Wasn't Farah willing to be his wife? So he had to accept the consequences of how I treated him.

Inspiration asks itself. Is it inappropriate for Farah. This question really torments the recesses of the heart of Inspiration.

“Let Farah however remain my responsibility. I have already chided his qobulan. Means he's part of me whatever it is,” guman Ilham.

Inspiration rose from his position. He wants to see Farah.

Is he asleep or not?

Ah, hopefully not yet.

Logic of Inspiration answers it itself. Then Ilham walked towards Farah's room.

As usual, Farah's room was unlocked. Inspiration came into that room. He saw Farah sleeping with her composure. Inspiration looked at Farah's pale face like there were no rays of joy on that face. When she sleeps, Farah also wears her hijab. Now Ilham knew how much Farah obeyed all his commands.

Ilham sat on the edge of the mattress, now Farah's face with her eyes closed very clearly. Inspiration saw Farah a little agitated. He tried to touch Farah's forehead.

“One-time hot body. Must be a fever,” guman Ilham.

Inspiration came out of Farah's room and took water and a small towel in the kitchen. Ilham wanted to compress Farah so that her body temperature decreased.

Inspiration felt sorry for Farah's current condition. Inspiration to replace the compress with another wet towel.

Unknowingly Farah held the hand of Inspiration. He felt that something was popping on his forehead.

“Mas?” weak tanyanya.

“It's fast to sleep. I will accompany you here,” replied Ilham.

Farah was still feeling weak, she fell asleep again.

Ilham also felt sleepy and eventually slept in a sitting position close to Farah.

***

The sound of dawn reverberates melodiously in a cool morning. Ilham awoke. He opened his eyes and saw Farah sitting looking at him.

“Why are you awake? Already back to sleep,” said Ilham who still feels drowsiness. It's yawning.

“Mas from last night here? Why not sleep in a mattress, why sleep in a chair?” ask Farah.

Inspiration does not answer. He immediately got up from his place. He must take ablution water for dawn prayer.

Farah also got off her bed, she woke up but unfortunately just a few steps walk Farah fell, her body slammed onto the floor. He still feels dizzy.

“I told you what too! do not get up, you do not need to walk first. pray in the mattress only, can tayamum right?” the words of Inspiration that helped Farah stand up.

Farah nodded. He was still dizzy, staggering as he walked. This is a consequence because he does not want to be hospitalized.

“I'll go to the mosque first. You pray here, don't go anywhere. Let Ms. Tin cook today. You get enough rest,” said Ilham before leaving Farah's room.

***

That morning Farah asked Ms. Tin to go to the bathroom. Farah wants to look clean even at home and certainly carry out her obligations as a wife that is to please her husband.

Ms. Tin did not allow Farah to help her cook, so Farah just sat on her bed.

Ilham today did not intend to go to the location of the construction of the branch of his shop, he did not also go to the store, because Akmal was able to run his shop well. Frankly Ilham was very worried about Farah's condition. He's very stubborn about outpatient.

I thought I saw Tin in the kitchen. He was putting food on the tray.

“For whom is Bu?” ask Ilham.

“This is for miss Farah, Sir,” replied Bu Tin.

“Let me just.”

“But Sir, don't you have to work?”

“Let me only! I want to feed Farah,” pinta Ilham which certainly can not be rejected by Bu Tin.

“Farah, breakfast first then take medicine,” said Ilham when putting the tray on the table.

I didn't see wrong? Is this Ilham's bringing me breakfast?

Farah who felt there was a strange with a gentle attitude of Inspiration.

“Mas Ilham did not leave for work?” ask Farah.

“I want to rest. Akmal already can take care of all this,” replied Ilham, “Now it's time for breakfast. Here open your mouth. Don't forget to read basmallah first.”

Farah smiled. That's his real smile. He still could not believe that Ilham was in front of him and fed him the porridge.

She smiles. Her sweet smile makes her dandy.

Inspiration that liked Farah's expression back then.

“Kok silent, don't want me to bribe? Don't let me change my mind and leave here,” threatened Ilham.

Farah shook her head and prayed before bringing her mouth closer to the porridge that was fed to her.

“It is dong, my hands are sore holding this spoon but just looked at it,” grumbled Ilham.

Farah smiled. Today the attitude of Inspiration is like the sun. Farah was happy to be this close and unknowingly Farah's tears were dripping down. Farah hurriedly wiped it.

“Lho is crying? There are chili peppers, right? ask Ilham while inspecting the porridge bowl. “Feeling no chili in this porridge.”

Farah smiled, she shook her head. “I'm glad Mas could feed me like this.” Farah was sobbing happily.

Geez, just given a little attention like this, the pleasure is amazing.

Inspiration smiles.

Inspiration scooped up the porridge again and fed it to Farah. There was still half a portion more that Farah had to spend. But Farah shook her head. She was a little nauseous, wanting to stop eating.

“Why is the porridge not good?” ask Ilham when thrusting a spoon full of porridge but rejected by Farah.

“Already Mas, bitter taste.”

Then Ilham felt the porridge. The taste was not bitter as Farah said.

“You lied, this porridge is good.”

“That's because Mas doesn't hurt so it tastes good.”

Inspiration did not force Farah to finish her porridge. Then followed by taking the medicine.

After breakfast Ilham invited Farah to talk. It felt like it had been a long time since Inspiration had done this with Farah. They discussed what topics came to their mind. Starting from the construction of a tavern branch to Farah who has a new friend like Kinan.

“Already, you have to rest, do not work first until you recover,” said Ilham advised.

“Iya Mas.”

“Oh yes said Akmal you asked for leave for tomorrow, what for? didn't Akmal already know you were sick?” ask Ilham.

“On that. Yes, I asked for leave for tomorrow because I want to deliver Mbak Rahma to check her body again and give her salary Mas.”

Inspiration breathed a long breath, He did not like Farah being close to Rahma. For her, Rahma is a bad woman and can affect Farah.

“I'm surprised with you. You are willing to ask for outpatient because you want to take the adulteress to check her body. You are not who he is,” said Ilham firmly.

“Mas, mbak Rahma did not senista it. Rahma's pregnant mother is not her will. He is framed by his friend and also lacks money. After all, Rahma has corrected her previous mistake.”

“You are very stubborn, you prefer to divide others than yourself.”

“I'm even happier because I can make others happy.” Farah won't budge.

Inspiration and Farah began to argue. Every time a warm conversation always ends with a spark of endless debate that makes them not want to budge each other.

Inspiration left Farah alone in the room. He did not want to prolong his dispute with Farah.

Inspiration sitting in the living room. He is still upset with Farah's attitude that more defending Rahma.

Suddenly the door of the house of Ilham was knocked by someone. Ms. Tin was behind drying clothes. Finally, the inspiration opened the door.

“Assalamu’alaikum,” greetings Kinan politely.

I knew the woman who came to his house. She's a female Kinan whose style is like a market thug.

Why is this woman here?

“Wa’alaikumussalam. Why are you here?” tanya Ilham ketus, he has not allowed Kinan to enter his house.

“Sorry sir, I am here to visit Farah and want to apologize for the incident at the hospital yesterday. Because of my sassness, I apologize a thousand apologies,” Kinan replied politely as he bent his body forward many times.

“Ohh ..” Inspiration is just oh.

“May Mr. Inspiration forgive my sassness. And I beg my father to keep working in the cafe owned by you, please do not make my mistake as the cause of my father's difficulties,” said Kinan in a very polite tone, compared to yesterday.

Why is this woman so polite. It was ridiculous when he spoke formally and politely like this.

Inspiration is still looking ketus. He held back his laughter.

Inspiration squinted his eyes. He brought his face closer to the woman.

“Will I think back,” replied Ilham flatly.

“Thank You Sir. Please reconsider.”

“Please enter. Farah is in her room.”
