RONA LOVE
EPISODE 11
Edward looked at Dayona pitya. His friend was in sorrow. His father's body was buried this afternoon.
The sense of loss is not only felt by Dayona, Edward as Dayona's best friend and know Om Ferdian also feel it. Om Ferdian who was so kind to him, treated him like a child - his own went so quickly.
Edward recalled the day his mother died.
At that time, he had only seriously studied for the preparation of try out. Edward was happy to tell his mother that he would soon change his red and white uniform to blue and white.
Mama always smiled when she and Edna told me about their dreams and ideals.
"Ma, Ed wants to be a famous painter, later Ed will paint Mama and make a painting exhibition for Mama" cried Edward.
"If Edna wants to be a nurse, so that if Mama, Papa and Brother are sick, Edna takes care!" Edna did not lose.
"Yes dear ... You must be great children, you will always pray for you" said the mother, alternately stroking the heads of Edward and Edna.
"So mama should get well soon, yeah." Edna hugged mom. Edward agreed.
"You always pray for Mama, so that God will provide healing for Mama"
Edward put his hands in a respectful position.
"Ready, Ma!"
"Ed, remember ... Always take care of Edna, you're the big brother, love and protect your sister! Always respect Papa, there's no reason to disrespect Papa, Edward, okay?"
Edward nodded, "Yes, Ma."
Mama smiled back. He fixed the blanket that was exposed on the part of his legs that were getting thinner.
"Well ... Now Mama wants to rest first, you learn again there ... The spirit of learning!" tell Mama.
"Okay Ma, I love you, Ma ..." Edna kisses mom's cheek and then comes out of Mama's room. Edward was behind him.
"Mama loves you too ...."
That was the last sentence Edward heard from his mother. Because after that, Mama slept and never woke up again. Still attached to Edward's memory, when he heard Papa yelling to call Kang Ari to immediately prepare the car. Papa then came out with a mama who was not moving.
At that time, Papa also advised Edward to keep the house with Edna and Bi Edah. And Papa - even paid to go to the Hospital.
It happened last night around 21:00. During the wait, Edward and Edna could only pray as they could. Wish Mama would come home soon and that's okay - napa.
But God willed another, at 3 am, Bi Edah got a call by phone home and after that heard Aunt crying sobbing - sobs while making calls many times to anyone. Edward doesn't know. He was just observing the motion - Bi Edah's movements confusedly, there was an uneasy feeling that started to ambush him, his mind had already imagined a no - no.
"Don't not Mama?"
But soon it was far away and continued to pray in his heart, for the healing of his mother.
At 4 am, the sound of the siren surprised him, as long as it sounded close, like it was on his doorstep. And right, as Edward walked towards the door. Papa had opened the door and entered with a group of people who immediately moved - move the living room chair and prepare the room.
"Mr ..." Edward approached Papa who seemed busy receiving phone calls.
Papa moved his hand gesturing not to bother him just yet.
Edward chooses to go into Edna's room and wake up his sister who had gone to bed a few hours ago. And tell me what he saw at home at the time. Then they went out of the room to find out what was really going on in their house. That's when they saw Mama's stiff body, in the chest. Edward realized that his fear had come true.
Mom left it forever ....
--------------------
Dayona cried in silence as she recalled the incident she had just seen in the Apartment. So much so that Mama did all that to him and to Papa.
Dayona knows very well how much love - his Papa to Mama, Papa who always prides Mama and tries to always make her family happy.
Dayona roared in frustration, immersing her face in the palm of her hand. Then grab her own hair. Then furiously shouted all the items on his study table. All fell down and made a noise. Dayona no longer cared about her already messy room.
Dayona just kept on crying out all the pain in her chest.
"Yahoooooooooooooo!!!!!!" suddenly the sound of the screams of Aunt, the Household Assistant, was heard so loud that it reached her room. Followed by the sound of broken plates. And thud.
At that moment, Dayona who was covered in question marks, wiped her tears and ran towards the sound, how shocked she was when she found Aunt lying on the floor, motionless, beside her scattered broken plates, how shocked she was, glasses, food, drinks and capsules - medicinal capsules.
"What's wrong with Auntie?" his inner. Immediately approached Aunt and intend to help her. Squatting back to Papa's room, shaken - shaking Aunt's body, but no sign - Bibi will wake up. Dayona panics and intends to tell Papa to ask for his help.
As Dayona turned her body, about to rise from where she was crouching, her head reflexes looked up. And how shocked and scared Dayona was. He saw a pair of legs dangling before his eyes.
"Pak Awiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!! ... Mr. Awi ... Mr. Awiiiiii, toloooooong!" dayona cried out in panic, calling her other domestic assistant.
Pak Awi came in a hurry - gopoh, and was surprised to see all the things that happened.
"Mr ... Papa, Mr. Awiii" pointed Dayona at the body hanging from the door of the room.
Dayona cried again, this time because Papa left her in a way she never thought possible ....
--------------------
The news of Papa's death has spread throughout the city. Ferdian Aldari died of a heart attack. Pak Awi has taken care of all the things for Papa's funeral.
"Nobody should know the truth, Mas ... Let this be our secret, for the sake of Mr. Ferdian and Mas Dana as well" advised Mr. Wiryatama, Papa's lawyer.
Dayona remained silent as many people began to arrive at the funeral home.
Brethren, relations, acquaintances Papa also expressed sorrow. His friends and school teachers were also there.
Edward was his best friend, and kept him company. Strengthen and comfort him.
Edward's presence should be able to ease his grief a little, as Edward always did before, when he was heartbroken, failed the test, lost his beloved dog Edward - it was who was able to comfort him.
But this time it was different. Their childhood and adolescence have changed. No longer the same, since Papa Edward had caused Mama to leave Papa, which made Papa depressed and decided to end his own life.
In front of Papa's body, Dayona's hands clenched in anger ... Created a promise approved by the father of the liar.
"I will never let them live quietly, they will feel what I feel ..."
And Dayona's tears broke, as her papa's body was put to its final resting place. All the prayers no one can offer his pain.
"Where's mama? Mama ... Dana needs Mama, hugs Dana Ma, Dana doesn't want to live alone, Mama .." igau Dayona that night in her sleep.
Edward who was still awake beside him could only pat his best friend's shoulder, hoping that what he did could slightly ease Dayona's sadness.
Dayona, who had shared many things with him, said, "Don't cry" patting him on the back, while accompanying him at Mama's funeral.
I'm here, buddy,
Always hold your hand tight,
When everything seems heavy,
I will always stand close ....
