Sidewalk

Chapter 77

Dirga panicked to see such a Shafi, it was very clear that the woman was enduring the pain. Dirga got up and grabbed the eucalyptus oil near Shafi, rubbing some parts of Shafi's body with eucalyptus oil, hoping that he could help ease the pain of his woman.

But, all of Dirga's actions had no effect. Shafi is getting sobbing.

"Honey .. We go to the Hospital," whispered Dirga.

"Change ... Mama .. I miss ..." Shafi screams.

"Honey .. open your eyes, now you're with me, your husband's wife."

"Go home .. I want to go home ...." The Shafi continued to grimace, but his two eyes were still tightly closed.

"Okey, you can go home, but I'm the same." Dirga embraced Shafi so tightly.

"Lepasin .. I want to go home ...."

"Rome home I may, but you never will." Dirga tightened her embrace.

Shafi was silent, his breathing also began to normalize. Dirga's feelings also became calmer. Slowly he released the Shafi and fixed the position of the Shafi lie.

"Tomorrow we'll go to the doctor, I'm afraid you're doing something for Fiy."

Dirga again lay down beside the Shafi, his hand curled over the body of the Shafi. Both of them went to dreamland.

*****

The faint sound of the dawn study was heard, making the Shafi slowly awaken from his subconscious. It felt like his back was so warm, the breath reflected in his earlobe made the woman fully aware, that she was in an embrace. Slowly the Shafi broke free from Dirga's embrace, after succeeding he immediately headed for the wardrobe, picking up towels and changing clothes there. Shafi walked on his tiptoes towards the door, he was not ready to chat directly with Dirga, currently dodging subtly made his feelings not too shattered.

Dirga wriggled, for some reason suddenly his embrace felt empty. Dirga's hand groped the side of the bed where the Shafi lay, the area was empty. Sontak made both eyes Dirga open perfectly. Shafi is no longer in his place.

Dirga immediately woke up, he stepped quickly towards the bathroom. "Darling ...." His hand opened the bathroom door. There's no one there.

"Where is he?"

He stepped foot out of his room, his goal is now the kitchen, usually if early in the morning busy, the woman must be busy in the kitchen.

In the kitchen there was no one there. Guest room, that's all Dirga remembers. Dirga returned to walk to the guest room. Once there, the door opened a little. Slowly, Dirga pushed the door.

He can breathe a sigh of relief, it turns out that Shafi is fulfilling his obligations. Dirga immediately returned to his room and fulfilled the same obligation.

The morning cold still felt piercing the surface of the skin. Finished doing her dawn duties Dirga returned to the guest room, a wonderful time to warm up with the queen of her heart, her delusion she wanted to spend the morning time with the Shafi.

Again the delusion is only limited to wishful thinking, in the guest room there is no longer a figure of Shafi. Dirga's nose was greeted with the smell of food, it then made a smile etched on his face. He's heading for the kitchen.

Arriving in the kitchen, a Aurelia Syafitri was cooking with the housekeeper. Shafi is not aware of Dirga's presence yet, but Adah is aware of it.

Dirga gave a signal to Adah to leave from there, Adah nodded, she slowly withdrew from the place.

The Shafi fingers turned off the stove fire, the cooking was ripe. "Oh yes mbak, this is done, later if brother Dirga wants breakfast please ready yes, I'm in a hurry because." Shafi put his cooking into the supply place that he will bring later.

"Since when is your job more important than mine?" Dirga wrapped both hands around the waist of the Shafi, making the woman unable to dodge.

Dirga drowned his face in the curves of the Shafi's neck, sniffing the woman's fragrant smell.

"Good morning, brother." Shafi tries to be ordinary.

Dirga stopped its activities. "Sister?" Surprised by the call of the Shafi, usually the Shafi invariably call the Bee. "When did you call me sister again?"

"Doubt?"

"No, I'd rather you call bee."

"I call you as good as I want, can abi, can papi, can dady, also .. can Daddy." The tone of Shafi speech is weakened when mentioning the word Father.

Dirga could not capture the aura of sadness from the radiance of the Shafi's eyes, at this time he felt very happy, because he could hug his wife tightly. Different from the woman who is locked in her arms. The shafi felt a deep pain.

"Why silence?" Dirga let go of his embrace, and twisted the body of the Shafi to face him. "Why baby?"

"It's okay."

"We went to the doctor, yes, last night you were in pain."

"I've been to the doctor yesterday, between Mayfa and Athan, said the doctor I'm okay, just my maag just kabuh."

"Okay you're okay, but why are you just looking down? Is this house ceramic more handsome than me?"

Shafi is silent.

"Why silence, dear?"

"It's okay, but .. because of you I was probably 15 minutes late, now I should have been tidy and ready to go" she said.

"This morning?"

Shafi was silent, his two eyes still faithful looking down at the kitchen porcelain, not looking at Dirga's face in the slightest.

"I'm sorry, please be prepared." Dirga felt guilty, because the Shafi looked so serious.

Minutes passed, Dirga was still sitting at the dining table alone, not long after the sound of footsteps could be heard climbing the stairs.

"Dhani is coming soon" interrupted Dirga.

"No need, because my online cab is already waiting outside." The shafi just passed by.

"Darling ..." call Dirga.

Free, the Shafi walked so fast towards the main door.

Dirga threw his breath rough, he immediately stepped his feet towards the main door following the Shafi, not as usual Shafi just like that, without saluting him. But the taxi car that picked up the Shafi had also disappeared from there. Dirga just looked blankly at his yard. His hand reached for the phone stored in his pants pocket. Not long after, the call was connected.

"My master's coming to your house soon." The answer immediately greeted Dirga's ears.

"No need Dhan, my wife has left, later during working hours, you go straight to the office."

"I'm sorry, sir, am I late?"

"It's not your fault, I'm sorry to bother you early in the morning." Dirga ended his call.

Something was strange, but he didn't know what it was.

"Miss is gone, sir?" The question awakens Dirga from his empty daydreams.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Sir, prepare my breakfast in the lunch box only, I also want to leave in the morning."

"Ready Mr."

I feel like there is something different about this couple. Usually after Dirga returned from out of town, both of them did not even come out of the room, if the room was out at 7 am at the earliest, this time in the morning the Shafi had been struggling in the kitchen, and the Shafi was in the kitchen, and at 6 Shafi is gone from home. Adah expels all her thoughts about her employer, she immediately goes to the kitchen to prepare her master's breakfast. Dirga was seen climbing the stairs to his room.

***

There was nothing Dirga could do at home, usually he warmed up with his wife, joking, talking about anything. Dirga finished wearing his work suit alone, usually Syafi who helped him, even the woman's idle behavior filled with joy was always coloring the morning, this time all felt lonely.

Dirga immediately went to TAG building. After the building, all still looked deserted, only a few janitors began to do their duty. The office janitor was astonished to see Dirga enter the office this early.

On the other side ....

The taxi car that Shafi was riding drove to his best friend's boarding house, arriving at Mayfa's boarding house, Syafi went straight to his best friend's room.

Tokk! Geck! Geck!

The back of the Shafi palm knocked on the brown door.

Kinkbk ....

The door opened, the beautiful face of a Mayfa.

"I can't stand May seeing Dirga's face, my heart hurts ...." Along with sobs that deepened.

Mayfa pulls her best friend into her room.

"Gue know you're sick, besides giving you a shoulder to lean on, what else can the cave help you with?"

"That's enough." Shafi immediately embraced Mayfa and shed his tears in the arms of his best friend.

"Last night Dirga called the cave, sue .. see his name on the mobile phone screen, want the cave to banting aja tu hp, kesel tau no!" mayfa's Omelette. "But the pan that lost the cave, if the cave hp banting, yes it has not become a slam, the stock of red glue ma blue cave for the future, not to buy hp."

Tucked into laughter among sobs Syafi heard Mayfa's scolding.

"This cave is Fiy, not a joke, you laugh."

"Our salary is a pretty May teacher, a month's salary is enough to buy a bitten apple logo."

"Yes, but out of it, a month of fasting! If not fasting, mending to save the future."

"Yes, my salary so far I saved, and now my savings are also good enough, enough for me to connect my life in the village later."

"Lu's going home?" Mayfa let go of their embrace, Mayfa's face was filled with sorrowful gurgles. "If you go back to the village, the cave can not fall the shoulder again for you to lean, the cave shoulder is not that wide, I am here, you are there, where to the shoulder to your village."

"It's okay there are no shoulders to lean on, there are still prayer mats for prostration."

"Don't lean back, wudhu there!" mayfa's Omelette.

"Now there's a shoulder, pinch a shoulder first." Shafi hugged his best friend.
