Sharing Love: The Suffering of the Second Wife
Bird News



Like hospitals in general, many human traffic in it. The same activity every day, always a common sight in the place. The three children of Ikram walk hand in hand in the hallway of Rangkasbitung City Regional Hospital.


The smile on the tiny lips of Nafisah even continued to be embedded. It was nice to meet Nadia even though she knew she had not opened her eyes.


"Wait, Son! Where are your parents?" a guard at the entrance to Nadia's room was treated.


"Our mother is in there, sir. We want to visit and accompany her," Ruby replied with eyes that stared sadly at the middle-aged man.


"Oh, Alright. Please!" He opened the door and let them in. Ruby took her two sisters down a hallway filled with many people. Understandably the Hospital here at that time, still a little free.


The VIP room, where Nadia was treated was different from the usual room. There was quiet, only one or two people were allowed to stand guard. The clock is also set and is prohibited from swiping the patient other than in time.


They stopped their steps as laughter and chatter rang out from Nadia's room.


"Sister, are you awake?" asked Bilal while looking up at Ruby who was still flinching.


"Come on!" bring him. Ruby pulled the two closer to Nadia's room. Nafisah ran and opened the door of the room at once.


"Mother!" he screamed hard enough. He smiled to see the people inside. Ruby and Bilal followed behind her.


"Mother!" Bilal called.


But then their smiles disappeared. The third was in the doorway with a blank look.


Meanwhile, Ikram down the streets of Rangkasbitung city looking for the figure of Nadia. He went to places that Nadia frequented all this time. Balong, the airing, and various other places that Nadia might make her place to hide.


Ikram did not know that Nadia opened a handicraft store in the middle of the city. He even went to Nadia's factory. The factory is operating as usual. He waited outside the factory, sitting in front of a food stall while talking to the shop owner.


Many times his head turned to the direction of the factory hoping that his second wife would appear from there. He did not dare to enter because he felt ashamed when he had to meet Sarah.


"Mr often see the owner of this factory here, sir?" ask Ikram. The owner of the stall seems like a new person because he does not know Ikram.


"Oh .. That, this factory was just operating yesterday, sir. Three days were closed because the owner I heard was in a coma at the Hospital. Perhaps in shock because his mother died suddenly," the shop owner replied, recalling the news he heard from mouth to mouth.


"What, Sir? The coma? Died off? What do you mean, huh? I don't understand" asked Ikram with a heartbeat he couldn't control.


"Anu, Sir. That's .. how, yeah. I just listen too. I'm not sure I don't know for sure either. Just the news of the wind, sir," said the owner of the stall again while shaking hands do not know.


The murmur, just the wind. He thought, Nadia deliberately spread the news so that Ikram felt guilty with all the circumstances he created. It's ridiculous! Ikram did not understand why Nadia spread the rumor. No way, he's not the one who's healthy all of a sudden in a coma. And what is it, how could Nadia spread the news that her mother died. So mean.


Ikram shook his head inexhaustibly with Nadia's silly idea.


"Who is that father? I just saw the problem," asked the owner of the stall earlier on Ikram.


"I'm just a resident here, sir." Ikram smile.


"Now the owner of this factory has been replaced he said, Sir. Redirected to the other party because the news of the old owner was the one who said he was in a coma," chirped someone who had listened to their chat.


"Maybe it's just bird news because the owner is having a problem or what? It could be, right?" Ikram still did not want to believe the news.


"Oh .. If the business, anyway, we know, sir. Yeah, because we don't know what she's like at home." The Ikram justifies the speech of the shop owner. Right, they really don't know anything about the problem.


Ikram no longer spoke, he turned around and looked at the factory in the distance which seemed quiet from outside. Almost all day Ikram is in front of Nadia factory. He will move when prayer time comes. Then, back sitting there hoping to see Nadia emerge from the direction of the factory.


However, until the time of Dzuhur came the figure he was waiting for was never seen. Ikram decided to go home. With a heart shrouded in disappointment he runs his motorbike down the streets of Rangkasbitung city looks empty during the day like this.


Ikram runs his blind motor with a wandering mind. His gaze was blank forward, staring blankly at the world before him.


"Well, why is this?" murmured when the motorbike he was driving was flying, "the tire leaked!" he complained after checking the flat front tire. He pushed his motor to the nearest workshop. Passing through the Hospital where his three children also just came out of the door of the building.


Ikram sat on the sidewalk waiting for his motorbike to be repaired. The building is not far from the hospital. Inadvertently his eyes caught three figures that he was so familiar with. Ikram looked up to make sure that the three children were his children.


"Ruby, Bilal, Breath. What are they doing there? Oh God!" confused muttering.


They stood on the side of the road, holding hands. Ikram stood intending to approach the two. He even ran with a heart condition that is not good. Honey, the three children entered the amber long before he got to where they were standing.


Her three children were lost with the angkot that took them. Ikram could not be sure because he himself doubted his sight. Wanted to call them when the angkot passed across the street where he stood, but he hesitated. Afraid of misrecognizing. Let it be, when he gets home he will ask them.


Pledge back to the workshop, sitting on the side of the road while watching the vehicle and human traffic. Keep hoping in his heart he will see Nadia among them.


Again, his eyes caught a familiar figure flashed before him. He murmured, but still did not believe in his sense of sight. He thought it was all a hallucination just because he thought too much about Nadia.


Ikram finally lowered his head, rubbing his tired face. Honestly, he missed Nadia so much. A sweet and pleasing woman. Never face sour when dealing with him.


While Ruby and her two younger siblings descended angkot languidly. His third face looked gloomy, Nafisah even still sobbing. Ruby leads the two to Nadia's house. He took his two brothers into the house and locked the door.


Mother who peeked at the three, frowned confused when she saw those haggard faces enter Nadia's house. He was intending to approach wanting to ask about Nadia's condition.


"Assalamu'alaikum, Ruby!" mother said while knocking on Nadia's door. Before long, the door opened and Ruby immediately hugged her.


"Lho, why? What's the matter?" ask Mom confused. Ruby did not answer. He continued to cry in the arms of the almost old woman. Mother looked at the faces of Ruby's two sisters, they looked down. His breath was still as he pleased in the place where he sat.


"Sign in! Tell Mom what happened?" pinta the woman took Ruby into the house and sat down with them.


Mother made them warm tea and told them to drink it. Nafisah shook her head, she hugged Mom's body and came back crying.


"What's this about? Don't confuse me" said Mom in a panic.


"Mother go, Mom! Mother is gone, Mother is no more, Mother. Mother is gone!" Bilal cried when he heard Nafisah say that.


"W-what? Gone off? Where to?"
