The End of a Waiting
Go home to Bali
Upon entering Isa's room, his gaze was fixed on
his sister was weakly drooping on the bed with an infusion hose in her hand. It
approaching mom Imah who was sitting on the edge of the bed while holding her daughter's hand. Maam
Imah turned to look at Kiki with a look not as usual looks like a look of the sea
disappointed, sad and angry. Kiki hesitantly continued in her footsteps, fearing her mother
will scold him for his negligence in looking after his sister. Bu Imah sighed and then got up close
Kiki and took him out of the ER room. Kiki and Maam Imah sat down
in the waiting room, Ms. Imah asked the chronology of the incident so that her sister could
until it's like that.
“Nak.. what really happened, please tell me
until your sister can be like that” pinta bu Imah on Kiki.
Kiki began to tell me that he was just trying
taking a picture of his sister by the lake with no other intention. Without her knowing
his actions brought his sister in danger until finally his sister fell
because of losing footing. Luckily there was a man who was quick
he sacrificed himself and helped his brother who was about to drown.
“So so bu it happened.” Kiki ended
her story.
“Ya already mom wants to go in first pity your sister inside
alone” says Mom's back in the ER room leaving Kiki. Kiki is only
nodding and forceful smiling. Kiki thought her mother would be angry and blame
but his mother only asked him to tell her what happened
actually was.
Then his memory was on the man who had
helping his sister, he spread his gaze around the waiting hallway but
not finding its existence. Didn't he just leave right where he was
sitting down now but where he was, Kiki felt ignorant of the person's luck
willing to sacrifice to help his sister even he had not been able to thank her
but that guy just disappeared.
Not how long came 2 sisters into Isa's room.
Kiki also came in worried that something happened to her sister.
“What happened sister?” kiki began to panic.
“Quiet, nothing happens, we will just
moving the patient to the usual outpatient room because his condition is already stable” is clear
the nurse then began pushing the gurney out of the ER room into the usual ward.
Hearing that Kiki and Mother felt relieved, Kiki embraced
his mother's shoulders they walked behind following the sisters, all the way inside
ordinary outpatient room.
“Thanks sister”ucap Kiki sincerely on sister.
The nurse smiled and left the room. Mom sat back on the edge of the bed staring
sticky daughter.
Suddenly Kiki's stomach rang.krukkk.
the clock on his left arm already showed lunch time, he came out
ruangan dan segera menuju kantin klinik itu untuk makan siang dan membeli makan
day for his mother. When he finished he returned to Isa's ward.
“Bu.. It's time for lunch you should eat
noon first, let me take the place of mother to keep Isa” please Kiki
who saw mom quite tired.
“Mother is not hungry yet, son, later on” reject the mother who
losing his appetite he just wanted his son to wake up.
“It is not good to delay meal hours, is not that what
often you tell me when you get sick how, who will
keeping this spoiled child” jokes Kiki on her mother so as not to miss a meal
daylight.
“Alright mom will eat” mom receives food
the package from Kiki.
“You've eaten?” ask Kiki.
“Hemm” Kiki nods her mother's question.
Kiki's gaze shifted to his sister, in his hand
soft hands of his sister who has not shown any signs of will be conscious.
Forgive brother
yes deck, because your brother so this
Kiki.
After mom finished lunch and dzuhur prayer, mom
returning in place of Kiki takes care of Isa and tells Kiki to take a break.
“Nak you should rest so that mother returns to guard
your sister” tell mom to Kiki.
“It's okay mommy if mom is tired mom alone who
rest” rejects Kiki who feels responsible for keeping Isa.
“Mother is not tired dear, already there rest” command
mom to Kiki. Finally he relented and got up to the sofa across the street
bed.
The clock shows at 15:00 WIB but Isa is not yet
consciously, I heard the door on tap from outside, tok.tok.tok.
asleep awake again he saw already stood a man the most
he avoid.
“What are you here for?” hardik ma'am Imah is not a greeting
kindly that Yovi received but insinuations that do not want
his presence.
“I'm here because I heard the news that the student
I almost drowned, fortunately there was a superhero who helped him
the news is true that the honorable Imah ma'am ” Yovi realized that the boy he helped was one of his students. Yovi is not afraid of
mother Imah's refusal.
“So soon the bad news spread, to people
important as you care about things like that ” said bu Imah ketus.
“Where can I meet that superhero,
shouldn't you thank him for saving the princess
you, if he does not come then you can be sure your daughter will not survive”
yovi replied no less sniffling looking smiling and walking
put a bouquet of flowers on the table against Mom Imah.
“Close your mouth and get out of here” get rid of bu Imah
pointing to the door of the room. Yovi stepped right next to Imah facing
bed Isa.
“Are you afraid that Kiki is aware of my presence in
here” said Yovi in a lower tone and his gaze was fixed on the girl
who fell asleep across the bed.
“Do not do anything about Yovi before you call
security guard to take you out” threatened ma'am Imah.
“Their mother still remembers my name, it's been a long time since we
not meeting and chatting casually like this, how are you?” now Yovi
talk more casually to mom.
“Stop.. get out you.. I said get out.
EXITR!!” the frustrated mother kicked out no longer caring if her two daughters heard
disturbed by his screams.
Hearing there was a commotion Kiki started to sneak up
his eyes and looking for the source of the voice, he was surprised by what he saw
his mother who was clashing with a young man He looked up
the man's face He covered his mouth as mother called Yovi's name to the man
that's. He tried to close his eyes again and pretended to sleep but continued
just listen to Yovi and his mother's debate.
“The more mom screams I think soon Kiki will
get up and see me, I don't know what his reaction would be if he met me
the man who had been waiting for him for a long time and today had saved the younger brother
dearest this” said Yovi deliberately fishing bu Imah.
“Well what you want now, I will grant it
and get you out of here never show up and interfere with our lives
again” mom tries to reconcile with Yovi.
“What's this way mom retaliates on the person who has been
saving my mother's daughter” said Yovi deliberately stalling because he wanted Kiki
wake up and see it.
“Do not have to convoluted quickly say your wishes
I promise I will grant it” said mother began to care with Yovi deliberately
buy time.
“My wish is just one. Give Kiki to me” says
Yovi and a cynical smile at ma'am Imah.
“APA!!” mommy widened her eyes to hear the request
Yovi's.
“I won't let that happen, I don't want to
my son fell on the same hole” bu Imah objected to Yovi's request.
“Alright if mom can't grant it then
let me here until Kiki wakes up and sees me” bargain Yovi.
Sounds simple but I realize the request is the same. It won't
letting Kiki see or meet Yovi.
“Dash basics!! Out you, out” said ma'am Imah
while pushing Yovi's unmoved body though. Body posture
the big high is very strong with mom Imah who is just sober.
Seeing Yovi and his mother keep arguing wanted to feel
Kiki got up and ended the debate. But he was not ready to meet
Yovi shadows the story of his past when he is treated arbitrarily by Yovi's mother who
keep haunting him. He finally resigned and chose silence.
The fierce debate continued until
finally, the mother was tired and relented and agreed on the wishes of Yovi who wanted Kiki
back him.
“There's no point in continuing to argue with you. Alright
I agree to your request.you can go back to my son ” mother resigned, mother
pretending to agree to Yovi's request for him to leave the room immediately.
Yovi smiled cunningly at mom. Then he came out
walking with a feeling of victory on his chest.
Mom reflected on what happened today
the vacation that his daughter wanted ended tragically like this. Plus
the appearance of Yovi that will cause new problems without feeling clear
falling on his cheek he quickly wiped away the tears fearing anyone would see him
but it was too late for Kiki to notice her mother and see everything
his heart ached to see his mother grieve like that.

In office
Since Kiki did not enter the office atmosphere felt
lonely, Arief seemed uninspired several times he vented his frustration
on Iin. As happened today.
“You why didn't tell me that today there's a schedule
shooting ” hardik Arief in front of Iin working table. Iin just bowed
answering would be of no use.
“What kind of assistant are you setting the schedule just no
becus” added Arief who increasingly cornered Iin. Hearing there was a commotion
Santi who was in the make up room came out to them.
“What is this why is it so noisy?” ask Santi
to them, because no one answered. Finally Santi asked
Iins.
“There's what In” Iin confused answer sis's questions
Santi.
“Begini bu....” long Iin thought finally Arief
snatching.
“Kak..he messed up my job, he didn't say
if today there is a shooting schedule when it is an important shoot” is clear
Arief blamed Iin.
“Truely so In?” not usually Iin works like
“Emmm” hesitate Iin telling the truth, he already
telling the shooting schedule the day before he even sent a message
personal to Arief but Arief ignored him.
“Already..it is useless to have an assistant who does not.
competent like him. fire him sis.. make a mess of course” Arief evaporate.
his anger was on Iin even though Iin was not wrong. Arief was unaware
that it is his own fault that is not focused on work.
Hearing that Iin started to tear up the fur
clear who was ready to fall but he was as strong as possible to stay calm.
“Sorry for my negligence mas, I promise not
will repeat it again” please Iin on Arief by closing the second
her hands.
‘’Ah come, from tomorrow don't show yourself
I don't want to see you again” said Arief cynically and left.
Iin cried as a result of Arief's words,
is it true that he will be fired as to his future fate. He should be unemployed
finding a job in this city is not easy. Santi calms down
Iin gave him the glass mineral water that was in front of him.
“How the story In, why Arief so angry
this?” santi asked, wondering if something had happened.
“Bu, if I am honest, will I be fired?” Iins
ascertain his fate if he tells the truth whether he will still be fired.
Santi's sister knitted her brows in confusion. What
it actually happened whether the problem was that serious.
“Tell the truth In, your honesty will be very
I appreciate” Kak Santi convinced Iin for the real story.
“Actually this is not entirely my fault ma'am, mas
Arief has a photo shoot with one of the companies for an advertisement,
what I heard the company belonged to his friend was supposed to be a photo shoot
implemented today but because Mas Arief forgot it looks like the photo shoot failed
done” clear Iin while regulating his breath.
“How can he forget, do you not remind
schedule” ask brother Santi.
“Yesterday I infokan bu, even last night I
also sent a message to him but it looks like Arief did not
read it” Iin took out his phone and showed a message on the screen
his cellphone. It's true Iin has reminded, now the problem lies
on Arief why he became unprofessional like this and even threw
mistakes in others. Santi sighed and left Iin
to meet Arief to discuss this matter. When Santi's brother turned around Iin
called him.
“Bu.. sorry if I will still be fired” Iin staring at brother
Santi lekat, the more worried because after he told the truth sis
Santi did not respond to anything and instead left. Brother Santi last
turn around.
“I will consider again.Thank you for.
your honesty I really appreciate it” Brother Santi smiled kindly at Iin. Iin felt relieved like he
not being fired.
“Try you contact the company again and request
the rescheduling just said that today the schedule clashed with the agenda
lain” Kak Santi gave instructions so that the photo shoot was still done even if it had to be
reschedule.
“Good ma'am, I will try to thank you for the kindness
ibu” Iin smiled sumringah in the middle of her impasse sak Santi gave her direction
which is very useful. Santi just smiled and left Iin.
At lunch time, Santi invited Arief to
eating together, Arief initially refused the invitation because He was not appetizing
eating plus the absence of Kiki on his side made him not interested in
doing anything. He finally obeyed his brother-in-law.
Arief and Kak Santi headed for the restaurant near the office
by car. They had lunch quietly just sounded
the clinking spoon and fork collided with the plate. Finish lunch, brother
Santi started the conversation.
“Arief what happened to you, why lately
this is your job falling apart?” santi asked slowly.
“No kak” replied Arief lazily it seems he knows the groove
talk of his sister-in-law.
“Hemm.
watch your work spirit go down even when you get home from home
looks chaotic” brother Santi is quite sensitive to his surroundings even though he rarely speaks
like most other women but very skilled at interpreting circumstances
as happened to his brother-in-law.
“No brother, nothing to do with dia” elak
Arief tried to lie to his brother-in-law.
“Really?” ask Santi not to believe.
“Yes, it's not time to go back to the office
lunch is almost over” Arief switched the conversation. Arief rises
from his chair and going to the cashier to pay the bills.
“Then why do you blame others for
your own negligence” prevent brother Santi by staring straight. Arief sat
revert.
“I do not understand the words of brother” Arief
I don't understand what her sister-in-law means.
“Do not eliminate the work of others above
own fault is something that is not allowed” brother Santi.
“I mean brother incompetent assistant it” Arief.
“Didn't you unprofessional involve
personal affairs in work” brother Santi stared intently at Arief.
“I don't feel like doing that” by Arief.
“So I know you're not excited about work and so
like this because Marwa is not beside you kan” brother Santi tried fishing
and look at Arief's reaction.
“I told you this had nothing to do with it
kak” again Arief lied.
“Then why do you blame Iin for your mistakes
alone”
“Why brother discuss it again, the problem is already
obviously brother he who works is not right” Arief still does not admit
his mistake.
“Where is the fault” brother Santi pretend not to
know the real events.
“Didn't I explain this morning because of him.
the project with my friend got messed up, I felt bad for him” Arief explained
without feeling guilty.
“You're sure it's all his fault?” santi began
annoyed.
“Yakin sis, let him get fired I'll find
even better assistant than him” Arief is confident in his words.
“Who said he'd be fired. Brother won't.
do it” brother Santi started to growl.
“But sis..” greeting Arief disconnected.
“Are you not ashamed to continue blaming him without
see your own mistakes” said brother Santi paused.
“Today is purely your fault.. Iin no
guilty even he's been working well.. He reminded you yesterday
and he sent you a message, too, but you didn't read it.
doubt please check your phone” obviously brother Santi overflowing. Arief
his phone he did not touch at all because he was too focused
thinking Kiki.
Arief might have been able to dodge it if Iin had reminded him
yesterday but regarding the messages sent to his phone he would not be possible
evasive again because the digital trace is very accurate. He took his cell phone out of his pants pocket.
He was surprised to see Iin's message
the top one means that the message was the last to enter his phone.
Not just one time Iin reminded even the early morning Iin to send again
message to Arief. ***.* Arief Feed
in heart. Roughly he
put the phone on the table.
Santi shook his head to see his sister-in-law. Already
it is certain that it is true that he ignored the message from Iin.
“Let's see.is you still going to blame him.. If you
don't want to lose your pride apologize to her” sis santi's advice.
“What need I do that sis.” Arief objected
with the advice of his sister-in-law, he was too prestigious to admit his mistake.
“Don't be too stubborn, you deserve to do
when making a mistake, it is better not to apologize, not to care.
on whom we did it” for brother Santi apologized when he did wrong
on someone is the attitude of a knight no matter who that person is. It
he also taught the sheriff the same thing. Arief was silent thinking of the words
his brother should have apologized to the assistant.
“Kak isn't that too much how possible
I apologized to him” Arief refused he would not apologize even though
he knows in this he is wrong. Santi sighed.
“If you still have a face consider this all no
it's never happened but brother make sure he'll underestimate you and won't
think of you as his boss again.you should realize it” said brother Santi.
smiling lightly he would not let his sister-in-law have the arrogant attitude he had
want his sister-in-law in disenchantment because of his arrival not because of his arrogance.
“But brother..” Arief remains heavy kekeh it feels to
apologizing.
“I'm not here to defend Iin.
I'm talking 'cause you're the boss of the company where you work, what you want
your subordinates imitate the cowardice of their superiors who do not want to admit their mistakes
instead throw it at someone else.Good company is not just a place.
for its employees to work but also build human resources to be more
good again and our company is trying to create it.” Said Santi sage.
“No more rebuttal, I've asked Iin to
reschedule with your friend's company.. Iin won't be fired
is an assistant that can be relied on differently than the previous assistant.” Ariefs
rounding his eyes why his sister-in-law could act to the extent of that what
making the assistant different until her brother gave such an assessment.
“Should if anything happened you told brother,
we are looking for a solution well, not in this way, in the future
brother asked for no more stupid incidents like this ” explained brother Santi.
“Secret this problem is finished, back to work
as always and leave aside your ego no longer blame others for
covering your fault.” Santi got up and headed to the cashier to pay
billings. Arief pensively thought about his brother's words, whether he was too selfish
he should apologize to the assistant. Is it really wrong. Long time it
pensive then he realized that his brother had gone from before him. It
rise up following his sister to the cashier. They walked out of the restaurant.
Along the way Arief continued to ponder the words of his brother-in-law.
