Al stood stiffly in front of the bed, he was silent and confused. In front of her grandmother was asleep with an infusion tube in her right hand. His face was pale, his body thin, leaving wrinkles making Al's heart sliced. The woman who had always been by her side and looked after her when she was little, the grandmother who had always pampered her, cherished and endowed her with so much affection, now lay helpless.
Zahra could feel the sadness in her son's heart, slowly he rubbed Al's back, the man turned a glance. "Speak to grandma,"
Zahra stepped out of the room, she wanted to give the opportunity for Al and her mother-in-law to speak.
Al sat on the edge of the bed, his outstretched hand gently rubbed the old grandmother's face, then he clasped the already wrinkled hand and looked very thin.
Slowly Grandma opened her eyes, she was troubled by the touch of Al's hand. Grandma's eyes sparkled, shocked and glazed over, the face she so longed for was now in front of her, was this really real?
"Am I dreaming?" slowly rumbling.
Al felt sad as well as guilty, he was too selfish to cause grandma to get sick, and lay down like this. Al only realized the consequences of his selfishness many parties were disappointed, and many parties suffered.
"Grandma, it's me, Al" Al said slowly.
The old hand raised trying to grab the face of this man before him, was that really his grandson? or they just lie to him.
"Al's? are you really my grandson, Al?" ask her back.
Al's heart is getting sliced, forgive Al nek, Al made grandma suffer like this, he said in his heart.
Al grabbed the weak hand and brought it to his face, Grandma rubbed the face, "This is Al nek, granddaughter of grandmother." replied Al
Then she hugged the lying grandmother, a clear liquid and soaked out without her being able to bear. "Sorry Al Nek, sorry Al.."
Grandma gently rubbed the hair and head of her beloved granddaughter, "Is that true? Praise be to Allah." he said sincerely.
Her face was shining happily and tears were rushing down, opening up tears of sadness but tears of happiness. God still reunited him with Al before death came to pick him up.
"Sir, how is Grandma? we're going to the hospital, right?"
Grandma smiled, "No need, grandma's medicine is back. You're the most efficacious medicine to treat grandma."
"No grandma, grandma must recover and must want to be taken to the hospital, does grandma not love me anymore?"
"Grandmother loves you very much, son. Even grandma loves you more than your dad."
"If grandma loves me, grandma has to heal. Don't you want to see me get married?" bujuk Al's.
"Married? are you really getting married?" grandma asked full of happiness, clearly visible from the smile and happy twinkle in her eyes.
"Yes, grandma. Al will soon take her to see grandma, but grandma promises to be cured and grandma has to be present at Al's wedding."
"You're not lying to grandma, are you?"
"No, grandma." Al gently rubbed grandma's hand and kissed her repeatedly.
"Grandmother will definitely recover, not have to go to the hospital, mika has called doctors and nurses to take care of grandma."
"Did your father know you were back? have you met him?"
Al was speechless, he had not met his father, and he was also not ready for what would happen when he met the man who had raised him so lovingly. Although hard but Al knew, his father loved him so much. Again the regret came smashing through the walls of his fragile heart.
"Meet him son, apologize to him. He is actually the most injured person. I know very well who my son is, though he is hard but I know his heart is soft."
"I'll definitely meet papa. Grandma's eating? want Al bribe?"
Grandma smiled thinly, "You know, you and your papa are only thinly different, used to mate your papa with a girl choice of granny modern girl, beautiful and a famous model, once a grandmother, but your father refused and insisted on choosing your mother, at first grandma was also against her, Grandma was angry even grandma did evil to your mother, but now grandma knows, your choice is very appropriate papa. And my grandmother felt very lucky with her choice.
Son, a man needs a woman who is ready and always there beside him, supporting him and accompanying him under any circumstances. Your father did choose a simple girl, but she's an amazing woman you've met, your mother never complains, she's always by your side no matter what, they were once poor and lived in remote areas. Life is simple, far from all luxuries and riches. But she's a loyal woman, though,
"Mr,"
"Listen son, grandma just wants you to choose the right woman, don't pick the wrong one. If the girl loves you sincerely she will always be there and willing beside you no matter what your circumstances."
"Al knew Grandma, Cintya was a good girl and she loved Al too." argued Al
"Thank you then, grandma can't wait to meet him, when are you going to take him to see grandma?"
"So soon, grandma, but grandma has to promise. Grandma should get well soon."
Grandma nodded, The same time Mikayla came in. "She's time for medicine." Mikayla approached and gave her the medicine that she had to take.
"Isn't there Lisa, why should you bother. Grandma doesn't want you to be tired,"
"No, Grandma, Kayla wants to make sure Grandma takes her medicine directly. After all, this is not a hard task." replied mika smiling widely.
"When it's nice to do it, they're also happy to see his oma get well soon."
Al realized something, he turned his head and at that time Al only realized that his sister was pregnant.
"I'll be an uncle soon?" said happy.
Mikayla said, "Not one but two, you get married and give your grandmother a grandchild just like Kayla" she said.
"Grandma rest yes," mika fixes grandma's blanket.
"Al go out first, Grandma, take a break." Grandma nodded.
Al's out with Mikayla. Lida went straight in to look after grandma.
"Kayla, how old are you, forgive brother, because of sister, you.."
"I'm fine brother," cut the mika.
"My husband and I are very happy to welcome both of them. Haikal was very kind, he was always the standby husband, and the papa candidate was the best for them." mika rubbed her stomach.
"Yes, but I'm sure you had a hard time at the beginning of your marriage, because you didn't know your husband at all, and vice versa, if I had been honest with Papa earlier, this is not going to happen."
"Here you are, forget what happened. Now we eat first,"
"Later, I have a meeting not far from here tonight. I'll be back later,"
"Sister not staying?"
"Sister stayed in the apartment for a while, was closer to the sister's workplace, and maybe next week the sister returned, where the sister worked not to give leave for a long time."
"Are you going to leave your mother?" Zahra suddenly interrupted, since he had heard the conversation between his two children.
"I'm sorry Ma, but I've worked for a foreign company and I have to take charge of my pepper job"
"You're still mad at your papa?"
"No,"
Al took a deep breath, "Al turned back on Ma, Al loved Mama, but Al also had a responsibility. Al go first. Assalamualaikum." Al grabs her mother's hand kiss her and hugs Zahra. He also kissed Zahra's cheek before leaving. Zahra just silently pecked, her tears fell again. Al was as harsh as her husband Zein, it was difficult to reunite them.
"Ma, Kayla's sure big brother will definitely come back to us, mama don't be sad."
Zahra rubbed her tears, "Mama was looking forward to that moment, the time when our family was reunited like before."
