The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

wills sir dawn

Adel was unceasingly shedding tears. The sight of his father rolling with a piece of life support equipment made his heart sliced. The more noon instead of getting better, but the worse he felt. Already several times the voice as when dawn had just heard, and every time it was also his heart like slashed, when he heard the voice of his father when in suction.

One of the sisters advised Adel to help his father with prayers. Like reading a letter of yasin, for example. At first Adel was offended by the sister's suggestion. He had said that the nurse was insolent. His parents were still able to recover and were told to read yasin, like a dying man.

Another nurse came to give him an understanding. That yasin letters can not only be read to people who are dying, but also for the means of asking for healing. The logical explanation that long ago can be accepted reason Adel. He finally accepted the advice. He also apologized to the sisters he had met.

With a hopeful heart, Adel began to read the letter. His right hand held his cell phone, his left hand clasped his father's fingers. Tiringly, tirelessly, Adel continued to read letters to his father. With one main prayer, healing. He just stopped when he entered prayer time. After the prayer, he did not want to be replaced by anyone. He forced his way back in, reading a letter to his father again.

While khusyu’ was reading yasin's letter for the next time, Adel felt something move in his left palm. But since his left hand was a bit numb, he ignored the movement. He thought it was a creeping taste as his numbness began to turn into tingling.

But that move he felt again. Still the same as before, Adel considered it to be the effect of his tingling. He ignored the taste again, and he continued to teach him. But just as his tingling sensation had disappeared, he felt another twitch in his palm. Now he is paying attention to his left hand. Along with the twitch he felt again, his eyes saw a movement on his father's index finger.

“Mr? Mr siuman? Mr siuman? Sus?” muttered Adel terminated the call.

Adel rose from his seat, intending to tell the sister who was standing guard. But he felt a grip on his left finger. Although weak, but he was sure it was the grip of his father's finger. And right, the hand of Mr. Fajar was also lifted into the air, because it grasped Adel's hand. And almost fell down, because of a weak grasp.

“Pak. Adel wants to tell the nurse. Let's call a doctor. Let's examine. Adel go there first, huh?”adel said while sitting back down.

But Mr. Fajar clasped Adel's fingers again. As if to disagree with the actions Adel will take.

“But gaffer should be checked” said Adel.

The middle finger of the Dawn pack was like tapping Adel's palm several times, then stroking it several times as well. Adel was confused by his father's intentions.

“Bapak why? How to grumble the palm of Adel?” ask Adel, like when he was joking with his father first.

Of course Mr. Fajar could not answer. He just came back knocking and stroking Adel's palm. Long enough Adel thought the meaning of the movement of his father's fingers.

“Morse? Would you like to thank Adel Morse?” ask Adel.

The dawn man tapped his finger again.

“OK. Adel open note first” said Adel.

He closed the Qur’s app, then opened his notes app.

“Oke, sir. What do you want?” adel asked, after feeling ready.

This time he really noticed every beat and elusan given his father. Every tap and stroke that was strung together into letters, he wrote in his notes.

“You”

Adel mentioned the first word he got from the morse cipher. He again noticed every morse cipher he felt in his palm.

“Who?”

Adel scrunched his forehead. He felt strange with that second word. But he kept paying attention to the next word.

“Ya?” the third word is quite short.

“Married you, yes!” adel said stringing the three words he got.

Mr. dawn kept giving him morse cipher. That makes Adel have to keep concentrating.

“Now?”

Adel was confused by that last word. He hoped something was wrong in his reading, but Mr. Dawn stopped giving the code again. He grasped Adel's fingers, although he could not be tight.

“Pak. Again in berlin. We can't get married today either. He healed up first, yes! seepetnya, surely we will marry”

Mr. Fajar moved his middle finger again. With her tears in her eyes, she gave it letter by letter.

“Luki?”

Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight, Adel was surprised to get the name. Adel exclaimed a bit loudly. Making the nurse who was checking the patient in the corner next to hear his voice. The nurse approached Adel.

“Pak. Adel could not have married Luki. Adel already promised Budi” mas said Adel refused.

Mr. Fajar moved his finger again. The sister, who was about to rebuke Adel, was stunned to see the miracle before her eyes.

“Please?”

Adel was stunned after getting that last word. How not, his own father is now begging him. But his request was not something easy to do.

There was a dispute in his heart. On the one hand, he is very dear to his father. He would do anything for his father's recovery. But on the other hand, she also found it impossible to marry Luki. He is only in love with Budi. And not a single bit of open heart for Luki. Moreover, he had promised not to hurt Budi's feelings anymore.

The longer the rejection of his father's request was getting stronger. The more dominating his heart. Defeat the feeling of being ready to sacrifice anything for the father.

*Keekh kookh*

“Astaghfirulloh. Susteeer” shouted Adel.

“Ya”

“Astaghfirulloh”

Adel was surprised to find that there was already a nurse behind him.

“My father, sus” said Adel pointing to his father.

“Good, will we suction first” said the nurse.

The nurse went to pick up the equipment and returned shortly afterwards. Adel stood not far from his father's bed. The heartbreaking sound as the nurse sucked the mucus from her father's throat, made her grieve and unable to hear it until the end. Adel ran out.

“Mbakwas. Why?”

Madina, who happened to pass by, was surprised to see her brother running out and crying. Bu Lusi who heard the crying suddenly went into the ward to see what happened. Adel's cry made all his family think badly.

“Mbak, mas Dawn why?” ask Sinta's mother, when Lusi's mom comes out again.

“Ngak papa's. More in suction” Answer bu Lusi.

“Oh” comments his mother Sinta short. All who heard the news, breathed a sigh of relief.

Bu Lusi entered the ward again, while Adel was still crying while covering his ears. Understand them all if Adel can not bear to hear the voice of his father who is again handled by the nurse team.

As the pain in his heart began to subside, he turned his head to the left. He saw that there was a Luki nearby. He looked at Luki's face. He stared at the man for quite a while.

“Why, nduk? Is Luki wrong?" ask Susan ma'am. Sontak Adel.

“Oh. Notwithstanding. No papa” replied Adel stuttered.

Susan invites Adel to rest in the waiting room. Being on the road will only disrupt the traffic of patients and doctors. Adel nodded in agreement. Not long ago they returned to the waiting room, Ms. Lusi came with Adel's phone.

“Nduk, it was siuman, yes?” ask mom Lusi.

“Adel does not know bu” Adel replied.

“Terus this?” ask Ms. Lusi while showing the writing on her phone.

“Adel doesn't know what it's called. My father is rich, ma'am. But denger, Adel said what. And I responded via jari”

“Lewat finger?”

“Iya. Mr. Adel gave Morse code through the same tap of his finger rub on the palm of Adel, bu”

“Allohu Akbar”

Bu Lusi stood up again and ran towards the ward again. Adel took the initiative to peek through the gap under the curtain. Several pairs of legs clustered around his father's bed. And all of them are medical personnel, except for Ms. Lusi. But Adel did not understand, what they were doing.

He only prayed, hopefully his father soon realized and can be spoken to again. After quite a long time in there, Ms. Lusi returned with shunt steps. Unlike the previous, which can still run, now Bu Lusi must be taken with a nurse. But since Adel was still closing his eyes, he had no idea what was going on.

“Mbak, no ibu” reprimand Madina.

Adel opened his eyes. Then she was astonished, why there was a nurse in front of her. The sister said goodbye after Ms. Lusi sat down perfectly.

“Nduk. This is what you wrote yourself, right?” ask mom Lusi.

Adel stared at the screen for a moment, then looked at his mother's face. He wondered why his mother asked him about it.

“Bu. Adel has an appointment. Can't Abram go home? I will soon be healed” said Adel, as if he knew what his mother would say.

Ms. Lusi did not answer. Only her tears flowed. As if to answer, if the truth, very contrary to what Adel expected.

“Ngak. Not likely. You'll be healed, mom. Yesterday the doctor said himself” continued Adel.

Ms. Lusi still did not answer. This time he could no longer see his eldest daughter.

“Ngak. You are okay, why. Father soon also healed”

“Nduuk”

Bu Lusi called out, as Adel got up and ran to his father's nursery. Suddenly everyone was poking around at Susi's mom. They asked what the two of them were talking about.

Bu Lusi told me the real situation. Her husband is in critical condition. Worse than before. And her husband asked Adel to get married today in front of him.

“But sorry mbak Goddess. His father Adel asked Adel to marry each other” said bu Lusi to Ratih.

Bu Ratih was stunned. He was not offended, but rather thought about his son's feelings. How about you get to know this news.

“That is more urgent, it is very necessary to be hastened. Regarding Budi, Let me who told you” replied Mrs Ratih later.

“Sorry to me yes, ma'am! I will make Adel renege on his promise to mbak Dewi. I will make Adel renege on his promise with Budi” said Bu Lusi while hugging Ratih bu.

“Adel's promise of the same situation now are two different things. I understand, really. I don't think that's breaking a promise. I release your daughter from all her promises to me and to Budi.” Ratih said.

It took a while for Ms. Lusi to spill her grief. The shadow will be left by her husband, making his heart weak and making his body feel powerless.

“Mbak Susan” call bu Lusi.

“Yes, Lus” replied ma'am Susan.

“Mas Dawn asked Adel to marry Mas Luki. Will Susan accept Adel as Susan's daughter-in-law?” ask mom Lusi.

“What are you talking about, Lus? Who would refuse Adel to be his son-in-law? There is also, Adelnya would not marry Luki?” answer Susan.

The answer according to Ms. Lusi is already an acceptance. He immediately asked, what if ijab qobul among their children was done today.

Susan gave her a look. And all the families present also gave their views. They discussed it seriously.

“About Sofia?” ask mom Lusi. Susan was stunned.

“Not worry about them! They get what they want. I guarantee you, they won't be looking for Luki again”

“Thank God. The important thing is that they don't bother Susan. I don't want to because of my condition, mbak Susan so join burden”

“Ya Alloh, Lus. Far away you think. I am truly free from them. I'm the same Luki already has a new business, the overflow of his company assets mas Imam that I pulled. And they can't perecokin me anymore”

“Alhamdulillah” says bu Lusi, giving thanks.

Inside the ward, Adel continued to hold his father's fingers. He also continued to say that his father would soon recover. Even though he had spent an hour talking, there was still no response from his father.

“OK, okay. Adel is getting married. But I'm healed, yeah! Please!”

Mr. Fajar's hand is moving. But much weaker than before. Just like a twitch. That may never be words.

“Pak. Love Adel morse again!”

“Yes, Adel is getting married, but I'm cured, yes!” continued Adel.

Again the movement of the fingers of the Dawn is only a twitch, only the top knuckle twitches. It produces nothing.

“Paak. Please!” pinta Adel's.

“Nduk”

A reprimand from behind him, did not necessarily make Adel look. He knew who the voice was. Susi knelt next to Adel.

“Father is already too weak to give words like before” said bu Lusi among her cries.

“Father will be healed, Bu”

“Nduk. Remember, every human has a time limit. We can't possibly dodge that”

“But we also do not know when our age limit, ma'am. Could you please father tomorrow cured”

Bu Lusi gasped. What his daughter said had a point, too. But as a human being, he also had to be realistic. He prefers to be prepared for the worst.

“Mother also very much hope your prayer is affirmed by Alloh. But I want, Adel mengejalanain what the Father requests. Perhaps with Adel takain, so you have more spirit to heal”

“Can we wait for Abram, ma'am?” adel asked, starting to cry again.

Ms. Lusi did not immediately answer. He started to get confused, how to explain to this eldest daughter of his.

“What is the agreement between Adel and mom still valid?” ms. Lusi asked.

“What?” Adel jerks.
