My friend, my husband
35. The Right Decision I
Maru stayed awake accompanying Sora who was now getting asleep. After nearly two hours, he kept staring at his wife's slightly pale face.
He got up, looked around all scattered. Items scattered because of the quarrel between the two.
Sora's phone notifications. Message from Zaenal. The one who kept contacting his wife, he opened his message. And reading it, he also read the previous messages.
The conversation was a very ordinary message. It was obvious that Zaenal loved Sora very much. But, Sora still did not accept it. Not what he thinks.
He opened his cell phone gallery. There was a picture of his wife and a picture of him too. There was even a photo of the two of them smiling broadly, a photo of them thinking of each other as friends.
Maru opened Sora's personal note which she wrote. It's written about how to get child custody. Even Sora has made plans for his life in the future, so that he can still be with his son. But there was no Maru name in the plan.
“Stupid...” with a flat gaze.
There was the sound of Sora's movements sleeping. Maru immediately approached and found Sora's body temperature very high. He painstakingly took care of it, giving compresses, but after some time his body temperature remained undescended. He glanced at the clock showing two o'clock at midnight. He took her and took her to the ER.
Maru accompanied his wife without sleeping a bit. He stayed up until the morning in the hospital room for one person. Because Maru does not want Sora to be disturbed by other patients.
Feeling thirsty, he intended to buy a drink but his wallet was left in the car. He went to the parking lot to get his wallet. The sound of his phone kept ringing, so worried he did not realize that his wallet and phone were left in the car. He took the call.
“Where are you?. How dare you leave the office at an important time. He said you from yesterday often truant. Today there is an important meeting.” His father's voice continued to scream.
There was a sound of a door from across the street,
“You also why this is not the door lock... Maru what is this? Where are you?” the fight turned into a worry. His father came to his house.
“Hospital ,I'm in hospital.”
Hearing the voice of his son who was so weak made the father rushed to the Hospital with his wife who was waiting for him in the car.
Maru returned to the room where Sora was treated with drinking water in her hand. His wife had come to her senses, and looked at him who was standing at the door. He went to her and asked her if she was okay.
Maru clasped Sora's hand, occasionally kissing her tiny hand. Sora took his hand out of his grasp.
“I don't want to see you.” The five words she spoke, made Maru realize that Sora still has not forgiven her, maybe she will hate her even more.
Maru walked out of the room. It's the best for now. If he forced his will like yesterday, he was worried that Sora would go berserk again, and that affected his current state.

Walking in the hospital corridor towards the room in question, Father and Mamah Maya saw her son sitting pensively in the front seat of the room. When her eyes met, her son stood up to Mamah Maya to hold her and began to cry.
I don't know why his feelings are unclear. He keeps on messing around. She remains annoyed by Sora who is determined to divorce her.
“Why you, baby? Who is sick? Your father brought you here but didn't say anything. You hurt?” Ask Mamah Maya who doesn't know anything.
“Not me mah, Sora the sick Mah.” A little more calm.
Before long came Reni's mother with a worried face accompanied by Zaenal who followed her from behind.
“Nak Maru, how is your child? He's fine, right?” with hands still shaking.
“Mother knows where?” because he hasn't told her yet.
“Daddy you call Mom, fortunately there is Nak Zaenal who happened to come to the house.”
The eyes of Maru and Zaenal meet. There is no greeting between the two. The look this time was hard to interpret. The two were not as sharp as usual. Is that a look that tells worry. Only they know.
