The Heart (Nadira)

episode 31

It's been a week since Alby came to his senses from his coma. He is also back to healthy. It's just that this paralysis makes Alby make himself an irritable person. Mama and her father had to be patient with Alby. Alby is now allowed to go home. Alby had to do therapy twice a week.

Now they have arrived home. For a while Alby would move in the lower room. With his current condition, it was impossible to go up and down the stairs.

" Dad, wanna eat?"

Nadira tries to ask Alby, who is currently staring at the park right next to the room in the current occupancy. Mama and Papa are resting in the guest room.

" Dad, wanna eat? From morning I haven't eaten."

Nadira was again ignored by Alby.

"Mas, "

Praaaannnggg....

Nadira was shocked by what Alby was doing.

" YOU CAN BE SILENT, HAAH!!!!"

Mom and Dad looked out of the room. Mama looked surprised to see a vase of flowers strewn on the floor.

" What's up, honey."

Mom asked Dira. And look towards Alby.

" No pa-pa, Ma. Alby accidentally dropped the vase."

Nadira was forced to lie, so that Mama and Papa did not get carried away by the thought of Alby's behavior. Nadira took a broom and a trash can, cleaning the broken vase. Then help Alby who is trying to move from the wheelchair to the bed.

When finished, now Nadira, Mama Ratna and Papa Vishnu sit on the sofa of the family room. Mama stared at this daughter-in-law.

Mama stroked the back of Nadira's soft hand. Trying to give strength to his favorite son-in-law. Nadira is not the only son-in-law in the Vishnu Rafadian family. Alby has an older sister as well as an unmarried sister. The older brother, Kamila, is in London, and the younger sister, Cahaya, is in Australia.

Nadira smiled gently at the mother-in-law. During the departure of her parents, Nadira felt the affection of both parents.

" Nadira will be fine, Ma. As long as Mama and Papa pray for Nadira."

After saying that, Mama took Nadira into her arms. And Mama broke the hug, when she heard Alby calling Nadira's name.

" FROM...YAAAAA....."

Alby called Nadira while shouting. Nadira immediately ran to the room occupied by Alby.

" Why, Mas? What do you want?"

" I'm hungry, get me something to eat."

Alby ordered Nadira. And Nadira immediately took food for Alby. However, again Alby threw his plate, because in the taste of his food is not in accordance with his wishes.

" YOU WANT TO KILL ME, THE FOOD IS TOO SALTY, NADIRAAAAAA, LIKE THIS YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR HUSBAND, HAAAHHH."

Alby again yelled at Nadira. This time Nadira could not hold back her tears. Papa and Mama went back to Alby's room, and saw broken plates and rice strewn across the floor. Mama stroked the chest to see Alby. While Papa who sees his son like this was re-ignited with emotion.

" Is this how you treat your wife, Alby Rafadian. Papa and Mama never taught you to be insolent."

Papa said in a high tone. And Nadira immediately looked at the in-law. Mama stroked papa's back, trying to calm her husband's heart.

"Pa, already. Maybe Dira's cooking doesn't match Mas Alby's tongue."

Nadira tries to calm the Papa-in-law, and Mama takes him out of Alby's room. While Alby was just silent, with a face that was difficult to read by everyone there.
