THE BEST BROTHERS
Chapter 109



The next day, at the hospital, Reno was accompanying his wife, she invited him to talk to her, Naila's fingers moved, her eyes opened, and she stared at her husband with a flutter repeatedly, his eyes adjusted the new external light he had been staring at for two months. How happy Reno was to see his wife open her eyes. He immediately ran out to call the doctor. The doctor went straight into Naila's room and examined her. Naila was already conscious, but her condition still remained weak and unstable, her heartbeat was also still weakening. The doctor leaves Naila's room, Reno follows him


"Dok, how's my wife?ask Reno.


"Mother Naila, she was only aware of her coma, her condition still remains weak, Mr. Reno. And, as I said before Ms. Naila fell into a coma, Ms. Naila's cancer has entered its final stage and has spread to all the cells in her body" the doctor explained.


"Will he heal, Doc?"ask Reno back.


"Begging God, He is everything, the best healing is His, we can only carry out our duties according to the treatment procedure." said the Doctor who handles Naila.


"Thank you, Doc." Reno went back into Naila's room, Naila closed her eyes again, but when she saw her husband sitting next to her, she gently stroked her husband's face.


Naila tried to smile in front of her husband, she clasped his hand and kissed him.


"Mas, I'm sorry, I'm troubling you." Naila said.


"Don't talk like that, baby." Reno looked deeply into his wife's face.


"Mas, I love you." said Naila.


"I love you too, Naila. Yesterday afternoon, Almira and Arsyad visited you." - Reno.


"I feel it, mas. I miss Almira so much, and my longing is taken care of, please tell her, stay by Arsyad's side, because Arsyad only loves her." Naila said in a stammering voice. Naila's breathing started to go irregular. Reno who saw him shed her tears. She knew that Naila's breathing was at the end of her throat.


"Mas, take care of yourself always, sorry I can't be by your side anymore. I'm sorry mas."


"Honey, don't talk much, rest." said Reno while kissing his wife's forehead.


"Mas, can you lead me, if I'm gone, bury me next to my parents, ma'am."


"Don't talk like that, you're definitely cured, Naila." Reno's tears started pouring down her cheeks


"Mas, sue me."ask Naila.


With tears in Reno's eyes and two sentences of martyrdom in Naila's ears, Naila followed her and after she was done, Naila breathed her last. Renieny wiped her tears and gently kissed Naila's forehead.


"Innalilahi wainnailaihirojiun, calm by his side, dear. I'm sincere, you're not sick anymore. I love you." Reno kissed his wife's forehead back, she went out to call the doctor, and rightly, the doctor declared Naila dead.


Naila's body was taken to the coronation room to be bathed and in the caravan, when Reno had finished packing his luggage he waited in front of the Reconciliation room, and sat pensive.


Arsyad and Almira come to the hospital again to say goodbye to Naila and Reno. But, as news of the grief approached him, a nurse still in Naila's room told Almira that Naila died 30 minutes ago, and that her body was still in the recovery room. Almira was so shocked by the nurse's statement that Almira took her husband to the coroner's room.


Reni is seen sitting alone, Arsyad approaches her and pats Reno on the shoulder.


"Reno, who is steadfast, all this is already the will of God." said Arshad. Reno hugged Arsyad, she was crying in Arsyad's arms, no matter she was new to Arsyad, she just wanted to let out the burden in her heart.


"Calm down, Naila is no longer sick." said Arsyad, he tried to calm Reno's heart. Reno rubbed her face violently.


"Naila told me, Almira. He said, you should stay by Arsyad's side, because Arsyad loves you so much. He wanted to be buried near his parents. So, once all is done, Naila's body will be brought to her town. Can you accompany me to help usher Naila to her final resting place. I've contacted Naila's house and her brothers there." Reno said.


"We will definitely go to Naila's funeral, we are also getting ready to go home, actually just wanted to say goodbye to you, but God said another." said Arsyad.


Almira was just silent from earlier, and as she continued to wipe her tears out of the corner of her eyes, she recalled the times with Naila. So stifling her chest, she now left him.


"Mira, Arsyad, you don't feel guilty again for my wife's passing. He had symptoms of the disease for a long time, but he did not want treatment, and never told his parents. So, you don't feel guilty, Mira. Calm down, take pity on your child in your womb." explains Reno, she sees Almira as blaming herself.


Almira just nodded her head, she still kept crying, Arsyad grabbed her from the side and leaned Almira's head on her shoulder.


"Don't cry, poor Naila, please, she's not sick anymore, baby."tangis Almira began to subside in Arsyad's arms.


Naila's body was ready in the hearse, Reno sitting next to his wife's body. Almira and Arsyad follow a hearse carrying Naila.


Almira leaned herself against the car seat, she spent her breathing violently. Arsyad who saw him, he just rubbed his wife's head.


"Sleep, you must be tired." Almira just nodded her head.


"Yes, I'm tired, my mom. Hold my stomach." Almira pulled her husband's hand to touch her stomach.


"Our son is moving, mas. So want to be born quickly." said Mira.


"Later if it's a girl, I give you a name, Ainun Najwa, may I?"ask Arsyad.


"Good, beautiful name, Ainun (eyes), Najwa (Whispering), can I add Salsabila behind him?"ask Almira.


"By dear, Salsabila (fountain in heaven), beautiful name, Ainun Najwa Salsabila." said Arsyad while rubbing his wife's stomach.


Almira smiled happily, now something that was stuck because of the guilt of her best friend, had disappeared instantly. Almira has let Naila go, she will keep her promise to Arshad, will not repeat asking her husband to marry again, under any circumstances.


"Yes right said Arsyad, only a stupid woman who told her husband to marry again, my husband is the best, I'm sorry mas, I always solve problems with my ego, do not think about your feelings."murmured Almira in the heart.


Almira yawned many times, she felt very sleepy, the journey to get to her city took approximately 2 hours more. Arsyad repeatedly told his wife to sleep, but Almira did not want to sleep, because she wanted to accompany her husband who was driving a car.

They had reached the cemetery, Arsyad's car parked behind Abah Fajri's car who also served. Almira immediately hugged his Abah, for more than a week he did not meet his Abah, he hugged his Abah and umminya alternately.


"You who are patient, dear, this is all God's will, do not blame yourself, pity Abah's grandson in your womb." Abah Fajri kissed his daughter's head. Almira confirmed his brother's words, he walked beside his Abah. Arsyad walked next to his mother-in-law.


"Ummi's healthy?"arsyad asked his mother-in-law.


"Healthy, yes like this ummi, most of which in bad taste only ummi feet, which sometimes hurts." he said.


"It still hurts? Come Arsyad with ummi, it's still a long way from the burial place."Arsyad took his mother-in-law in painstakingly. Yes, Ummi Rahmah does have gout pain that sometimes relapses, especially during the rainy season like today.


"Thank you, son. Has Almira always been troubling you?"ask Ummi.


"No, I'm the one who always bothers the ummi princess, she prepares breakfast for me, prepares clothes for me, and everything." Arsyad said.


"It's a wife's job, son. I mean ummi, was Almira too spoiled once while pregnant?"ask Ummi back


"No, even if spoiled, Arsyad would rather." he replied.


"You are indeed the best man for my daughter, Syad." said Ummi.


"Ummi could have." Arsyad smiled at his mother-in-law, he was very close to his mother-in-law, he considered her in-laws like his own parents. He also sometimes went to his in-laws' house without his wife's knowledge just to ensure the health of his in-laws.


Naila's funeral service is over, all mourners leave the cemetery one by one. Only Reno and his uncle are still next to Naila's grave. They're sending a prayer to Naila. Arsyad, Almira, and Almira's parents pray for Naila.


"Arsyad, Almira, Ummi and Abah thank you for coming to my wife's funeral, I have my wife's grave here, because I'm going with my uncle to Singapore for my work."reno.


"Yes Ren, I'll look at Naila's grave later if I come here to visit the mama's tomb." said Arsyad.


"Mammy? Isn't your mother still around?"ask Reno.


"Emm.that is, papah's first wife." replied Arsyad.


"Your papah's wife?"ask Reno back.


"Yes, my papah has two wives, my mother papah's second wife." explained Arsyad.


"Ohh.so it's like that." said Reno.


Arsyad and his family left the cemetery, Reno still silent in front of his wife's grave. He kissed his wife Nisan and went home with his uncle.


Arsyad drove his car home to see his wife sleeping next to him. Arsyad drove his car slowly and confirmed the head of his wife who repeatedly hit the car glass. Arsyad's car was already in his yard, in waking up Almira who was still asleep. Almira blinked her eyes and yawned, she was still very sleepy.


Arriving in the room, he laid his wife's body on the bed, but Almira immediately woke up when Arsyad was changing clothes. He felt his sticky body, he immediately took a towel and went to the bathroom.


"Darling, wait." Almira turned to her husband.


"What, mas?"ask Almira.


"We haven't had a bath together in a long time, I want to take a shower with you." she said.


"All right." Almira took her husband to the bathroom to take a bath together.


*****


Arsyil is still struggling with his job tonight, his job is increased because he takes care of the company Alm. Papahs Rizal. Annisa sees her husband who is still busy with his work, she approaches him with a cup of coffee for her husband. Arsyil has smelled the aroma of black coffee that has been made by his wife.


Annisa puts coffee on her husband's desk and sits in front of him.


"Syil, coffee." said Annisa by sitting herself in the chair in front of Arsyil.


"Thank you baby, how are you, you still don't want to eat rice too?"ask Arsyil.


"It has been, but little by little, how does work in the papah office?"ask Nisa.


"Yes like this, do you want to help me, Papah you say, you are also good at business, and often help papah too." said Arsyil whose view is still not separated from his laptop.


"Yes I used to help papah, let me see the file, maybe I can ease your work, I know you are also busy at Papah Rico's office. Moreover, Brother Arsyad is out of town with his wife." said Nisa.


Nisa sat down to her husband, she saw the files that her husband was still working on, and rightly said Papah Rizal, Annisa was smart, she immediately responded to what her husband taught, she immediately responded, she took over her husband's job and had him drink the coffee he had made for her.


"Syil, may I work in the papah company, I am bored if at home continue, besides my boutique already has Vera who takes care of it." said Annisa who is still busy with her laptop.


"You're still pregnant, don't get too tired, baby." Arsyil said


"That's exactly it, Shil. I move more and do not stress at home alone, want to Kak Shita he is busy with his Caffenya, to the house of Kak Mira, he is also busy with his reading garden" said Annisa


"You have a boutique, baby." said Arsyil.


"I'm bored in the boutique, if there is you in the papah office, Syil."he said spoiled.


"Say you want to be close to me, there are many reasons you, Nis." he said as he gently pinched his wife's cheek.


"Yes like that, besides Vera also wants to take care of my boutique, not me who wants. Let it be, he needs a job, now find a job very difficult, Syil." he said.


"Yes.yes...if that's what you want I can do, you do if you want to be obeyed, don't you, baby?"arsyil said while kissing his wife.


*****


Arsyad tried to open his laptop. He'll check his work that he left for two days, but all the files are on the flash drive that was carried by Arsyil. He immediately contacted his sister, if she would come to his house to take his flash. He invites Almira to Arsyil's house, but Almira does not want to because she feels very tired and sleepy. Arsyad went to Arsyil's own room without taking his wife.


*****


Annisa is still engrossed in her work, indeed she really misses work in her papa office, if she takes her semester off she takes her papah to the office and learns with her papa how her company. So even though she had not held the job for a long time, she could still follow what her husband taught her.


"It's night, sleep, pity our son." said Arsyil.


"Later, I'm not sleepy yet, baby." she said.


Shortly after the bell in Arsyil's room rang, Annisa who did not know that Arsyad would come to see her husband, she asked her husband.


"Who's meeting at this hour, Shil?"ask Annisa


"That must be Arsyad, he will take the Flashdisk left in my briefcase yesterday." said Arsyil.


"Oh.ya already there open first." he said while drinking the milk that Arsyil had made for him.


Arsyil opens the front door, Arsyad enters following Arsyil inside, he sees Annisa who is still struggling with her laptop.


"Your wife at this hour hasn't slept?"arsyad asked Arsyil in a soft voice.


"Yet, he's still nostalgic for his job, sister." she said.


"Bernostalgic?"asked Arsyad who was a bit confused.


"Yes, let's go inside brother." Arsyil invited her sister inside, Annisa greeted her sister-in-law who came


"Kok yourself, sister Mira is not coming?"ask Nisa.


"She's asleep, you're not asleep at this hour?"ask Arsyad.


"While helping Arsyil's work in papah's office" he replied.


"Can you?"ask Arsyad.


"Don't get me wrong, he's smarter than me." said Arsyil while taking a flash from his bag.


"I thought you could just change the oil and spark plugs."ledek Arsyad.


"Yes..like that, you want coffee?" Arsyil offers coffee to his brother.


"No need, Almira is alone, pity that in staying long. Moreover, he just lost his best friend." said Arsyad.


"Sister mean?"ask Arsyil.


"Naila, she passed away this morning, and this afternoon was buried" he said.


"Innalilahi wainnailaihirojioun, but there is a good thing brother, you are not forced to marry again."goda Arsyil


"Husss.kamu it, yes too, yes already brother came home, Nis, sister went home first, do not stay up late, not good for pregnant women." said Arsyad.


"Yes, my sister, we'll be sleeping soon." replied Nisa.


Arsyad was escorted out by Arsyil, he immediately drove his car to go home. She actually still wants to stay at Arsyil's house for a long time, she wants to chat first with her sister, but Almira is home alone and Annisa has not slept, despite having forgotten her embarrassing past, because she loved her sister's lover, but still, if there was Annisa and met face to face with Annisa long ago, Arsyad felt a bit awkward.


"She was able to take care of her papah company, I guess Annisa's a very spoiled girl, but he was so mature and even so tough despite the ordeal of losing both his parents at once after he reaped happiness" Arsyad muttered as he drove his car home.
