Nenden was weeding kale for his wares when the Goddess approached him. The girl sat down next to her mother and helped her cut the kale. Nenden stopped his work and looked at his only child.
“Let's mom aja.”
“I'll just help mom.”
“Mending you study, it's still a test.”
“Udah done, bu.”
The goddess continued her work. Every now and then he looked outwards, precisely at Aditya's contract. He was waiting for the young man. The plan is they both want to persuade Nenden to agree to the operation. Soon Aditya's rented door opened. Aditya came out and went straight to the house of the Goddess.
“Assalamu’alaikum.”
“Waalaikumsalam. Uh Adit, let's go in.”
“Health, mom?”
Aditya kissed the back of the hand of his future mother-in-law and sat down beside the Goddess. He took out a brochure that Adrian gave to Dewi yesterday, then handed it to Nenden.
“What is this Adit?”
“That's a hospital brochure. Yesterday bang Ad love it to the Goddess. I want ya checked here all operations.”
Nenden let out a long sigh, apparently the child had told Aditya about his illness. The woman looked at Aditya for a moment then threw a faint smile.
“Tetap aja end-end inoperable.”
“Iya, mom. But if in this hospital, you can get a fee waiver.”
“True, mom. The cut can be up to 50%. As long as there is a certificate from the same RT RW if we are less able, it certainly can be cut, bu.”
“Liar cut, still the cost is big. That's money for your college, neng.”
“Mother, don't think about my college. For two semesters yesterday, I was Rian's assistant and got a salary from him. I'm calm, I already have money to pay for new semester.”
“Iya, mom. The lack is to use my money. Please I want to have an operation, this is for the Goddess as well. Do you have to see the Goddess worried? Do you want to see Dewi diwisuda?”
No response from Nenden. The woman seemed to be thinking, contemplating Aditya's words just now. His eyes looked at his son's face as well Aditya alternately. There was a sense of harrum in his heart. They seem to care and love him so much.
“Just mom should want surgery. Mother is the only one the Goddess has now. Me, Adit ama bang Rian mah just a backup player, hahaha.”.
Suddenly Roxas came in and connected the conversation. The young man also knew about Nenden's disease. He also wants to help persuade women who have been considered his own mother to want to undergo surgery. Now the three collaborated on Nenden.
“Urus letters ribet,” Nenden still trying to get together.
“Quiet aja, ma'am. Pak Haji Soleh and kang Salim want to help, he said. Anyway there is Roxas, he lives thinning pack RT beres bu,” persuade Dewi.
“Jiaaahhh ogah I wink pak rete whose mustache is rich mas Adamnya mba Inul. If you blink his new sexoy son want.”
“Omesh.” Basics
Roxas only chuckled at the annoyance of his two best friends. But what he said was true. Mr. RT's son is indeed sexy, and a genuine widow. Sometimes he likes to tease Roxas in front of his house.
“You are sincere, neng, the money mom used for treatment?”
“Yes Allah, mother..why say that? The Goddess is sincere, whatever the Goddess will do for mother's healing. Anyway, I have to want surgery huh?”
“Iya, neng. For eneng.”
“That's dong, mom. Goddess dear mother.”
With great joy, Dewi embraced Nenden. He was happy, finally the mother wanted to be operated on. Because it was still morning, the three took the initiative to directly take care of the letters to the hospital. Dewi took KTP as well as KK to be photographed copy. After that, we just headed to the house of RT sir to ask for a certificate of not being able to for medical purposes.
“Emang pack rete clock is here at home?” ask Dewi while walking towards the house of Mr. Ade, RT in his neighborhood.
“There. Mr. Ade has retired. Mostly take care of the bird,” replied Roxas.
“Apal very lo,” chirped Aditya.
“Ck.. Roxas is that. You don't know if I'm popular now here.”
“Soundly. Popular among widows are proud,” exclaimed Dewi.
“Don't get me wrong, widows are always ahead.”
“Origin do not be mistaken for a widow label, rich aunt Amel,” continued Dewi.
“Hahaha..” Aditya's laughter sounds loud.
“Eh said now aunt husband Amel lives here?” ask Goddess.
“Iya, it's been two months. Work moved here. The salary is big there but the important thing is to stay together,” explained Roxas.
“Kok lo know anyway?” wonder Goddess.
“Roxas is loh.”
Dewi just blurted her lips just look at the narcissistic behavior of her best friend. Aditya laughed with satisfaction at the conversation of the Goddess and Roxas. Then he remembered his aunt who had a problem with Roxas.
“Eh Xas, how is my aunt? Still bothering elo?”
“Who is aunt lo?”
“Tante Pipit, Fitria, head of audit team.”
“That's aunt lo? Seriously?” roxas's eyes rounded hearing it.
“Hooh.”
“Oh yes, I have a story. At that time I was invited to chat with English guests bule.”
“Hah?? How to?” ask Goddess.
Roxas recounted his incident with the Australian guest. So confused to answer what when the bule asked, Roxas to have to mix Sundanese and English which the results were successful to make them both confused.
“Hahahaha... Hence learn English, dudul,” Dewi menoyor the head of her best friend.
“Auu.. shy ama face bule lo,” continued Aditya.
“Terus lo got reprimanded ngga?”
“Ngga, dong. Aman, even bule ask for photos with me,” proud Roxas.
“Eh but who is the head of the audit team really aunty lo? Jutek so..” continued Roxas.
“Iya. Fancier lo?”
“Najong. That rich jutek girl. I could be whining about him, dry my body.”
“Hahaha..”.
“Eh but if he becomes your aunt, when you call him om anyway,” chirped Dewi.
Aditya and Roxas' steps came to a standstill upon hearing the words of the Goddess. For a moment the two fell silent and looked at each other.
“Najis!” say both at the same time.
“Hahaha.. ngga my dear, Adit call om to elo, Rox.”.
“Dih, goosebumps disco I love it,” exclaimed Aditya.
“Gue is also males called elo same. Moreover, bang Rian, kebayang did not he call me om with his face that slab.”
“Hahaha...” Aditya and Dewi could not help laughing.
The laughter of the three must be stopped when they get to the front of the house of RT sir. As Roxas said earlier, it turns out that the thick mustachioed man was cool playing with his bird. Several times he heard his whistling, training the bird to follow his whistling.
🌸🌸🌸
Thanks to the help of Hajj Soleh all administrative affairs for the needs of the hospital can be completed quickly. Nenden was immediately taken to Mitra Sehat hospital, a hospital recommended by Adrian. Salim kindly took Nenden and Dewi there. Aditya and Roxas will be in the hospital after work.
Nenden underwent a re-examination at the hospital. From blood tests to ultrasound. The goddess faithfully accompanied her mother to do it all. The girl continues to encourage the mother to be patient in living everything. From the results of the examination concluded that Nenden did have to undergo surgical removal of the tumor. Previously he had to undergo treatment first, until his condition was completely ready to undergo surgery.
Aditya and Roxas take turns to stay in the hospital. So also with the friends of Dewi and Aditya. Rangga, Rivan and Fay come to the hospital. Sheila, Sandra, Mila, Micky, Bobi and Budi. They came to bring a lot of food as the provision of the Nenden waiters.
Only Adrian was not told by the Goddess. The man knew about Nenden from Aditya. He secretly came to visit there. Adrian goes into the treatment room and talks to Nenden when the Goddess is not around. He also forbade Nenden from saying his arrival to the Goddess.
After three days of treatment, Nenden finally had surgery to remove the tumor. The goddess sat waiting in the waiting room for the operation. Aditya had not moved from his side. Accompany the Goddess and give her strength. Even the young man got permission to the hotel to be able to accompany the Goddess.
Elsewhere, Adrian continues to undergo activities as usual. But he got periodic reports from his sister about the development of Nenden. The surgery itself will take a long time because the tumor is located in a fairly vulnerable area.
“Dit.. mom will be fine right?”
“Quiet aja, De. In Shaa Allah is a good mother. You pray aja.”
“I'm scared, Dit.”
The goddess leaned her head against the wall behind her. His eyes closed, trying to dispel his bad thoughts about the state of Nenden. In his heart he did not stop praying for the safety of his beloved mother. Aditya remained faithful to his side, he knew how worried the Goddess felt.
By noon the operation was complete. The doctor leading the operation came out of the room. The Goddess quickly approached him. He can't wait for the results of his mother's surgery.
“Doctor, how is my mother doing?”
“Alhamdulillah, the operation was successful. Soon your mother will be transferred to the ICU. If the condition is stable, it will be moved to the treatment room.”
“Alhamdulillah, thanks, doc. Thanks.”
The doctor just nodded his head. He immediately left the waiting room to return to his room. Before long the door opened, two sisters pushed the blankar carrying Nenden's body. They took the woman to the ICU. Aditya and Dewi continue to follow him to the front entrance of the ICU.
“When can I see my mother, sus?” ask the Goddess on duty.
“If your mother is conscious, you can see her. For a while let him rest first.”
“Iya, sus. Thank you.”
Aditya takes the Goddess to the waiting room that is there. Some of the patients' families are also waiting for their family members to be admitted to the ICU. Some bring mats to sleep, some bring supplies such as food and thermos, some just sit waiting without bringing anything. The goddess sat herself in an empty waiting chair.
“Later tonight you want to stay here?” ask Aditya.
“Iya, Dit. If you can't get out yet, I'm here. See, many stay too.”
“In a minute Roxas is done. I'll have him bring a mat or carpet here.”
“You're not going home?”
“I'll be here, take care of you.”
“Still, Dit.”
“Ngga need to say thanks. You are very rich cape, sleep aja.”
The goddess yawned, the drowsiness indeed could not be held back by her anymore. Last night he couldn't sleep well imagining his mother would have surgery in the morning. Aditya rolled up his jacket then put it on the waiting bench. He asked the Goddess to lay her head there.
🌸🌸🌸
After performing the prayer, Aditya ran out of the hospital building.The goal was the hospital parking lot. Adrian was waiting. Aditya got into the car. Seeing Aditya's arrival, Adrian took a package of food and snacks and gave it to Aditya.
“This food for you.”
“Still, bang.”
“What's the state of Nenden?”
“Still in ICU room. If his condition improves, later in the day will be moved to the treatment room.”
“Thank God. Goddess how?”
“Good, just still anxious because you can't see mother.”
There is a desire in Adrian's heart to see the condition of the Goddess directly. But he was also unwilling to make the girl uncomfortable with his presence. There is Aditya next to the Goddess. The man did not want his sister to realize his relationship with the Goddess. The emotional attitude of the Goddess if she is nearby can trigger suspicion.
“Abang don't want to see mom?”
“Later if it has been moved to the treatment room,” Adrian reasoned.
“Abang any problem what the hell is the same Goddess?”
“Hah?”
For a moment the two brothers looked at each other with their own thoughts. To be honest Aditya was a little suspicious to see the attitude of the Goddess who was like anti to her brother. Adrian himself confused to answer what, the thing that was feared to be true happened, the sister began to suspect.
“Abang close to Roxas, even he already considers his own brother rich brother. Why is the same Goddess different? You have the effect of being rich in dogs and cats. Dewi does not like the same brother, but still want to be an assistant brother. What exactly is your relationship like?”
“Ehem... brother relationship with him. Maybe at school, my brother was too outrageous with him, so he likes keki. Continues.maybe she is hurt when brother gets mad at her.”
“Marahin about what?”
“That time my brother met him accidentally in the mall. There is also Ara. You know for yourself, what Ara is. Without brother asked Dewi ngaku-ngaku to be brother's girlfriend. Maybe he was amused to see Ara's behavior and pity the same brother. His efforts succeeded, Ara believed and left.”
“Keep brother tempered him and he offended?”
Adrian nodded his head. For some reason it was precisely Ara's problem that crossed his head. I hope Aditya believes what he says. He glanced at Aditya who was still thinking.
“I don't think it out, tuh girl no shame.”
“Who?”
“Ara. Wonderful, still chasing brother even though it has been rejected.”
“He was curious times because brother refused keep.”
“Definitely mad brother Dewinya outrageous, so he hurt,” Aditya returned the conversation to the Goddess again.
“Kanya. He went straight away abis brother anuratin.”
“Ck. Udah aided instead of thank you even angry.”
I heard Adrian laughing. The man was laughing at his own stupidity. Luckily, Aditya believes the story he tells.
“Try to make peace with Goddess, bang. Can not be funny if the same sister brother-in-law fight continuously.”
“Hahaha. Would you like to marry?”
“Doain aja, bang. Hopefully we are fooled. I'm back for our wedding. Kaya now Dewi has started to fall in love with me.”
The smile on Aditya's face expanded as he said it. Adrian's heart was getting sore to see him. But this was his choice, handing over the girl he loved to his dear sister.
“Aamiin..” Og Adrian.
“I'm in yes, bang. Thanks for the food.”
“Iya. Greetings to mom.”
“Ok, bang.”
Aditya opens the car door and gets out of there. The young man waved at Adrian and rushed back to the hospital. Adrian let go of Aditya while sighing.How long, the man began to run his vehicle, leaving the hospital area.
🌸🌸🌸
The 2nd class treatment room where Nenden was treated left only two empty beds. After her condition stabilized, the woman was finally allowed out of the ICU and underwent post-operative recovery in the treatment room. The goddess still continues to accompany him, coupled with Aditya and Roxas.
Nenden's own condition has not fully recovered. Understandably, the woman had just undergone a major surgery. His face was still a little pale, but he always tried to smile in order not to make his son anxious.
“Mother sleep first.”
The goddess pulled out a blanket to cover Nenden's body. The woman just nodded then closed her eyes. He was still feeling sleepy and his body was still feeling weak. After making sure Nenden sleeps, Dewi invites Aditya to sit on the outside of the room.
“Dit.. Thanks yes, you keep me here.”
“Sama-sama. Why do you keep saying thanks? Habits.”
“Hehe.. Where's roxas?”
“Go home first he said. Also come back here again.”
“Ok deh.”
For a moment the atmosphere became silent. Aditya leaned his head against the wall behind him while closing his eyes. The goddess continued to watch Aditya's face carefully while remembering everything that had been done by her.
Thanks, Dit. You're always there for me. Always by my side when I need a friend to share, a shoulder to lean on. Sorry I was late to realize how you feel. I don't want to be wrong again now. I know now, who's really sincere love is with me.
“Dit..” call Dewi slowly.
Just now Aditya was about to enter the dream realm when he heard the voice of the Goddess calling out to him. Slowly his eyes opened then turned to look at the girl sitting next to him. For a moment the Goddess just silently looked at him.
“What's up?”
“I love you.”
The three words that the Goddess spoke made the young man flinch. His eyes looked deeply at the Goddess. The face of the Goddess immediately blushed seeing that gaze. He quickly woke up and entered the treatment room. Aditya who had regained his consciousness shouted quite loudly.
“YESS!!”
🌸🌸🌸
**OMG Dewi told Adit lope. Dupus is already hope bang Ad🙊🙈
