The Fate that is Overlooked

The Fate that is Overlooked
4



The second day after Mas Reno's departure, I decided to try to get up. Try as hard as possible to accept destiny. The infusion that was still attached to the back of my left hand was only three-quarters of a bottle.


I circled my eyes across the room, I saw the clock on the nightstand was showing at 5 a.m. It is time to perform the dawn prayer. Which I haven't done for so long. What a great sin. My life has been too preoccupied with worldly activities without remembering the afterlife.


I don't know what's been on my mind, what I've been doing and chasing, so I never remember my God, the giver of life. I was too negligent by the pleasure He gave until finally now I just felt it, that I had lived far too long without remembering HIM.


The sound of footsteps came closer to my room, and sure enough, Mama was seen with a glass of water.


"Why is there such an infusion ma?" I asked innocently.


"You passed out last night, said the doctor


you're dehydrated" Mama replied and immediately approached me. " Want a drink?" he gave her the glass he held.


And I just nodded, and received the glass that mom gave me.


"Thank you, Ajeng wants to pray. Can you please let go ma?" I pointed at the infusion that was still perfectly splicing on the back of my hand.


"Ahh mama did not dare, tayamum aja deh yes? that's also the infusion just a little run out, baby. Later the doctor will come here, check the condition of your body again" Mama gave advice.


And finally I did tayamum guided by mama, performing prayers while sitting because it was hampered by the drip.


"Would you get permission from school?" I asked my mother after I finished praying.


"Dear, my mother permission today not to leave" he replied as he continued to help me release the face.


"Only today?"


"Not sure how it will be"


"I went with my mom to go home, what? there are too many memories with Mas Reno. I also don't seem to dare to stay alone at home ma, even though there is Mbak Nur but if the night itself, Mbak Nur only until the afternoon" I looked at my mother, but if the night was alone, all I saw was that he was also a little surprised by my request.


"Let's talk to my mom and my family about Reno, baby" Mama stroked my hair and kissed my head.


"Mom ready to eat breakfast first huh, you don't papa in living alone?"


"Yes Ma is not papa, but the door is open?" My love.


Mom nodded and went straight to the kitchen.


I grabbed my mobile phone that was on the nightstand, I tried to open a message that contained the notification of hundreds of messages. I scroll down to the bottom, start reading one by one messages, from starting a High School group, a college class group first, from friends and relatives who convey their condolences to me.


It was like a dream that I would receive something like this, I was completely unable to reply to them. Soon my cell phone died and I put it back on the nightstand.


"Why?"


The heavy sound of people waking up shocked me.


"Sorry to surprise you" He repeated his words.


I was too focused on the message I received to not realize there was someone else in front of me was shocked.


"When is it there?" I asked cold


"Since you took a heavy and long breath" he replied.


Without asking permission, he sat down next to me. Dragging my dressing chair which was enough made the sound of the squeaking of the chair be heard.


He reopened his real voice, I refused to answer.


"Come Swe... "


He was not complete yet, I turned my eyes towards him sharply. And he was able to stop her words.


"I'm sorry, I'm free" he said, looking back at my eyes even more sharply, and I turned my face away.


"It is not good for a man to be in a woman's room, let alone that I am your sister's wife"


My word is cynical.


"Former" he replied quickly.


"I beg you to come out"


I turned my sitting position to lie down, and turned my back.


"We're not done yet" he said as he passed.


I tried to be calm, but I couldn't. My eyes started to heat up and then clear liquid came out of both of my eyes. What kind of feeling is this.


I let out a long sigh, trying to calm my heart back, until finally the sound of footsteps came closer.


"Otherwise you want?" I turned my body, facing the person now in front of me.


"Mother?" Ask me to be surprised


"Why Jeng? Mom looks worried.


" d. aa.. Reluctant ma'am, I thought eee" I stammered, between confusion and shame.


"No need to think about it, how did you sleep? yummy?"


"Yes mom Alhamdulillah, did you sleep here last night?" I'm trying to distract.


"Yes with Mba Runti. He just came home to take Felly to school, afraid of being stuck, he said.


Felly is the son of Mbak Runti and Mas Bayu, he already sits in 7th grade, in the favorite Junior High School in the city center.


" Ooh" I answered short.


"Wanna eat now Jeng?" Bargain mother.


"Later on Ma'am, it's still not good to eat at this hour" I replied giving an excuse.


"Would you take a shower?" Bargain mother then.


"It's hard ma'am, how's this infusion?"


"On the cantolin on the hanger, let's help mom"


Finally with a heavy heart I helped mom to go to the bathroom to clean herself. Actually a little confused with mom. But how else? conditions that do not allow me so need the help of others.


Luckily I had a mother-in-law as good as her..
