SPIRIT AND DEATH

1 WEEK LATER

I've been allowed to go home, but this time Dad didn't pick me up. Mr. Antok said, Dad waited at home because he was not feeling well.

At first I was quite anxious about Dad's situation, but Mr. Antok was able to convince me that Dad was just exhausted and all was well. Moreover, Rian has taken very good care of Dad.

"Sarah, are you ready?" asked Feli who was holding my right hand while smiling.

"Yes." Yeah." I stood with my weight on Feli but he did not mind at all.

I walked slowly and felt very dizzy. Plus with my body that seems to be broken. I think I need a massage right now. Hopefully, Mbok Yati I can count on.

"Non, just use a wheelchair, okay?"

"No, Sir. I want to learn to walk. It's been a long time like this."

"Well, be careful and slow!"

With slow steps, I almost died the treatment room, but something held me back with its gentle touch. I looked to the side and looked at my right hand. It turned out that there was a short-haired little girl with toothless teeth.

I frowned to look at him and Feli asked why? Then I just replied, "Feli, wait a minute!"

"All right."

The little girl looked at me with her dim, wet eyes. Before long, he turned his head towards the treatment bed where I was lying down a few minutes ago.

Looking at the expression on the little girl's face, I felt like I had to do the same thing and I looked back. The sound of crying suddenly filled the room. A young woman cried as she hugged the princess who was lifeless.

"Salwaaa ..." cried the young woman growing hysterical as the media covered the face of the little girl who was currently in front of me to the end of her hair. "Salwaa."

Hearing that voice of pain, made my heart wound come back. I knew what the young woman was feeling, so that without feeling the tears dripped and my legs weakened

"Sir, just grab the wheelchair! Sarah hasn't been this strong."

"Yes, Non Feli."

"Sit down here!" said Feli while putting my body on the blue stacking chair in front of the treatment room.

Feli took his hand off my hand, but not with the little girl. Before long, Feli offered me a chocolate candy and I ate it right away.

"Sarah, if there's anything tell me! Understood?"

"Yes, Feli." I looked into the eyes of Feli who placed both hands on both parts of my cheeks.

"I love you so much, Sarah," said Feli, then he gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"Thank you, Fel."

"For what?" asked Feli who took a squatting position in front of me and he held both my hands quite tightly.

"For everything."

"I feel like you're my brother, Sarah. After all, I should be the one to thank you. Maybe out there, there are very few people who have the journey of life like us. And because of all this, we will be inner born companions, companions of the hereafter."

"Inner-born friend, friend of the hereafter?" I said again, repeating Feli's words and Feli nodded his head while smiling.

"I just read the story of the friendship of Prophet Muhammad and Abu bakr and a snake who missed Prophet Muhammad very much."

"O yeah?"

"I'll tell you later when I get home. I'll tell you until you fall asleep. How's it?"

"Good idea."

"Thank you, sir."

Mr. Antok and Feli put my body in a wheelchair and at the same time, I no longer saw Salwa beside me. I don't know where the kid went? All I know is that he doesn't want to bother me right now.

"Let's go home!"

We went home without a hitch. Not only because the road is smooth without traffic jams, but also because Datuk Belang continues to dispel whatever is in front of our car very quickly.

Honestly, only this time I smiled when I saw a big tiger roaring in front of me. Although there was a great vibration when Datuk shouted, but it was like a feeling of pride and amazement, not fear.

We arrived home, all welcoming us warmly. Mr. Antok's wife and children smiled as they shouted my name. "Saka Saraaahhh. Brother is healthy, right? We will play later, brother. I have now memorized the verse of a thousand denarii," they said alternately.

"Well, that's great," praise me to the two while holding their heads slowly and alternately.

"Where's it going, Non?"

"Better, Bi."

"Thank God, Non. The master is in his bedroom sleeping."

"Yes, I didn't sleep from last night. I don't know what he's thinking" continued Rian who appeared from inside the house.

"I'm going to see Dad."

"Let me take you!"

"Thank you, Feli."

We arrived at Dad's room and I asked Feli to leave me and Dad alone at this time. With a light heart, Feli rushed out from inside the room.

"Dad," said I while holding my forehead which was very hot, but my father did not answer my greeting.

I feel so sick like this, maybe this is also felt by Dad when he saw me lying helpless. And now I get so understanding why you always worry about me, when I grow up, but you worry about me more.

I looked at Dad with deep sadness. Suddenly from the bottom of my heart, I want Dad to heal and be able to open his eyes to see me back in this house. One thing I do know is that my father is currently asleep not because he is tired or sleepy, but because of the pain and maybe the medicine he is taking.

My right hand continued to gently stroke Dad's forehead, just then my heart said. Heal Daddy! Don't be sick because I'm so sad to see you like this. Not yet finished my words, suddenly I saw my right hand that was on top of Dad's forehead was bluish white, like it was hit by a spotlight and I did not know what it was.

Even so, I continued to stroke Dad's forehead and hoped that Dad would get well soon. About 5 minutes passed, I felt like my hand was no longer hot when it touched Dad's forehead.

At first I hesitated and I decided to touch Dad's forehead with my left hand and it turns out I was right that even the heat disappeared completely from all over Dad's body.

I smiled as I looked at Father who was still closed. At the same time, I stared towards the side as I saw a strand of gray robes. It turns out that there, there is already a figure that I have seen before that is a healer inheritance from Grandma Nawang Wulan.

As he watched him continue to raise both his hands and absorb the heat energy from Father's body, my tears flowed. Suddenly I saw a face and a shadow with Nawang Wulan and it made me very sad and hurt.

Nawang Wulan's grandmother was not my family, but she had left me many provisions to survive otherworldly cruelty that could have easily destroyed my heart and deceived my eyes.

"Thank you ... thank you .. thank you ..." I said with tears streaming down my bed.

Connect ....

Sorry to my readers. I was only able to get up because I was in pain. 5 days ago, I was hit from behind and my right body part was heavily injured due to a fall to the right.

Until now, I still could not sit and breathe perfectly. Sorry if there are a lot of mistakes in writing. What is clear is that I try to give my best, even though I have to type in a relatively very long time just to present one Chapter like this.
