SINCERELY TAKE OFF YOU

103. Trapped in Sadness

All feeling devastated over the passing of Ema's mother, what else Arga. She was so sad that she did not know her mother had died asleep alone.

Maybe Ema's mother felt pain alone in the room, or she asked for help but because of the circumstances could not be anything so could not ask for help to people at home.

After Ema's mother's funeral, Arga went into her room and preferred to sleep instead of accompanying her relatives who came to pray or deliver to the rest of Ema's last mother.

Who accompanied the relatives of Arga who visited and still in the house Arga only Anita. She understood the sadness of her husband, she gave a reasonable reason so that her relatives did not ask where Arga went.

"He's in the room, bude. He said he wanted to rest first. And also being sad because my mother died suddenly." Anita replied in asking Ema's mother's brother about Arga.

"Yes, it's true. What else Arga is very dear to Ema. If he is sad it is also appropriate, but bude please Arga not to let alone Anita." said the sister of Ema's mother.

"Yes bude, I will remind Arga to be able to accept the fact that mama is gone" said Anita again.

Then after a few hours at Arga's house, relatives of Ema's mother returned to their respective homes after saying goodbye to Arga in his room.

Many tips were conveyed by his relatives, but Arga was just silent. After finishing his farewell, now Arga back alone.

The regret in his heart was so great, that the sadness he felt increasingly made himself slumped.

Anita saw her grieving husband like that becoming concerned. She knew her husband was regretting the death of his father-in-law.

He approached Arga, sitting next to him. Look with affection.

"Ga, who is patient. Mama has calmed down there." said Anita gave strength to Arga.

Arga nodded, now lying on his back to his wife. Anita let out a long sigh, then got up from her seat and walked out of her room.

He gave space for Arga to be alone and feel deep sadness. Anita is not not sad, she must be strong for the sake of her five children and her mother. Because without Arga knowing, his mother was also very hit with the death of his besi that he had considered like his brother.

If Anita is sad and down too, who will take care of her children. They are also sad because his daughter's eyes can no longer play with them, especially Celine.

He was also struck, although the way he did not look pitiful. But every time I asked Anita, there was a sense of loss. Anita is also sad, since childhood even since Celine's baby was cared for by her in-laws.

Now he will completely replace Celine so that the child does not grieve anymore.

"Ma, papa's still in his room?" celine asked as they were all having dinner.

"Dear, papa is sleeping. Let papa rest first." replied Anita.

All her children ate without a sound, only Kevin's babble did not understand anything that happened in her house.

Anita sighed, she told her children to eat immediately and after eating they had to study or go straight into their respective rooms.

And later Anita will accompany Kevin to sleep as usual. Ms. Yuni herself did not come to dinner. And tonight only Anita is troubled by the commotion at the dinner table, usually Arga helps her. But now he's alone.

"Kids after this you learn quickly yes, Chila's sister will be helped adeknya learn ya." said Anita to her first child.

"Yes ma." replied Chila.

The little girl who was quiet is now big. Already ten years old, Anita can count on to take care of her sisters when Anita is bothered.

After dinner, now his five children began playing in the family room while studying. Until nine, Anita told them to sleep. Anita has also put Kevin to sleep in her room with Angga.

"Bag fast bobo yes, it's night" Anita said to her fourth child.

"Yes ma." answered Angga.

Then Anita narrates a storybook to Angga as usual after Kevin slept first.

And twenty minutes, Angga was asleep. Anita came out of her son's room. She also seemed to have been sleepy, but had previously seen her three children whether they had fallen asleep all the time she had entered her room.

Routine things Anita does every night before she enters her room. Or even Arga also alternately with Anita.

Anita went into her room, and she saw that her husband was asleep. Cowering with a little tear in the corner of his eye. He drew closer to Arga, wiping away the tears that were still left in the corner of his eyes.

Then he was also sleepy, time to sleep. Because tomorrow will be busier even though every day he does it himself, which is only helpful.

A month after the death of Ema's mother, Arga turned more quiet. He seemed to be still drowning in his grief over his mother's passing. For one week lamenting the dead, Anita thought it was still natural. But if it's up to a month, even more it he thinks is already unnatural.

Anita then helps her husband tidy up his tie, but Arga refuses. Anita wondered why Arga's change became like that?

"No why. I leave early." said Arga.

He picked up his bag and walked out of his room. No breakfast with the kids downstairs. Anita is stunned, whenever Anita comes close to her husband. Arga always dodges.

What's wrong with her husband? Does the feeling continue or what?

Anita's mind is increasingly uncertain, Arga has repeatedly refused to be helped tidy up his tie and also helped button up clothes. He let out a long sigh, there was a heartache that burst out in his bag.

But he still survives not to force Arga to speak. He then came out of his room, helping his mother who was now better than usual.

Anita was already at the dinner table, stared at by her five children.

"Ma, papa leaving in the morning again?" chiko asked in amini by her three brothers.

"Dear, papa's busy at the office. So it can't take us to school." said Anita.

"Mamama, epin kut papa" said Kevin with his pedal accent.

"Yes later come with papa yes, papa work first." said Anita.

Kevin laughed happily, he now continued eating pieces of fruit. Yuni's mother saw her son's face grieving, she felt sorry for Anita. He was afraid that it would repeat itself as before.

But his ugly thoughts were soon wiped out, in exchange for prayers of kindness for the happiness of Anita and her children.

Now Anita has to take her five children to school by taxi. Hiring a taxi for two purposes. One to elementary school and one to kindergarten school.

Kevin is unlikely to be left at home with his mother because his mother is also ill.

Anita's race returns to the past, where she takes care of Chila and little Chiko alone without any support from Rendi first.

Anita wishes Arga was not like that, abandoning her children as well as herself. Maybe he was caught in deep sadness.

Anita let out a long sigh, she daydreamed in the taxi car she was riding to Angga school.

"Mom, it's here" said the taxi driver, blasting Anita's daydream.

"Ah yes sir, sorry." said Anita.

Angga looked at his mother daydreaming, and asked.

"Mama's sick?" ask Angga.

"Dear, mom is just daydreaming" Anita replied involuntarily.

"However is that ma?" ask Angga again.

Now they enter the gates of Angga school. And Anita did not answer her son's question.

"Don't be naughty school, you will wait in front of Kevin equally adek." Anita message the fourth child.

"Yes ma."

Angga then ran into the school gate, while Kevin pointed to ask to buy a passing toy.

"Ma, buy that balloon." whined Kevin while pointing at an old man who was selling balloons.

Anita approached the man and bought a balloon according to Kevin's favorite color.

"How much pa?" ask Anita.

"Five thousand" replied the old balloon salesman.

Anita also spent five thousand dollars and handed it to the balloon seller. Then Anita invites Kevin to sit in a chair that has been provided by the school to wait for his son.
