It is not felt that there will be another week of Shofia and Zakaria's marriage. Both sides have prepared for the event with passion.
General preparations have been completed at the place of Shofia. The building used as a reception venue has also been rented with the services of WO acquaintances Shofia. As for catering has been taken care of by the women in the big Shofia family. The issue of uniforms for the extended family of both sides has also been resolved.

That afternoon Shofia was watering flowers in the yard next to her house. Activities that are routinely done by Shofia every afternoon if at home. He really likes gardening. He never bothered about his hands and his dirty body exposed to the ground while gardening. He could spend hours gardening.
While being engrossed in doing his hobby, his mother hastily approached him while sobbing.
"Patient child yes." said Mother when she managed to hug Shofia.
flash back on...
At that time the mother was with the women to prepare a cake for the guests they invited at the reception. Suddenly the voice of the mother's cellphone stopped their activities for a moment.
"Excuse me. I picked up the phone first from the prospective besan" said the mother while smiling at the brothers who were greeted with smiles from them. They are happy to see the happiness of their relatives.
"Assalaamu'alaikum."
"...."
"Inna lillahi wainna ilaihi roji'un."
"...."
"Yes. We'll be there soon. Hicks." Khusnul began to sob. All the women in that place looked at Khusnul. They looked confused and worried to see the look on Khusnul's face which now looks pale.
"...."
Khusnul immediately left the place without caring or answering questions from everyone who was now staring at him worried.
Khusnul is looking for the whereabouts of the husband he knew just came home from their milim shop. He immediately told me about the phone call from their prospective besan.
Mirza looked flabbergasted. He can't think what's going to happen. Then he asked san wife to find their son.
flash back off...
Here they are now. In front of the operating room in a hospital. They sat there in silence. I heard sobs from the women. Not all women. Because the girl was just silent with an expression that was hard to decipher.
Since until she was embraced by her future mother-in-law, she is still silent. The story from Umi was still ringing in his ears.
"When Zacharias went to pick up the dowry he had ordered at his friend's place he had an accident. People said he was avoiding the little boy who suddenly ran into the street. He hit a tree that was there." Umi could not continue her story.
"The doctor said the wound on his head was severe. There's a broken blood vessel in the brain. So it must be operated immediately." said Yahya also ringing alternately with Umi's speech.
Everyone looked at Shofia with worry. Because they saw Shofia just speechless without saying anything. Even as Ziana sobbed in her arms she was also just silent. Not even tears dripped from her eyes. Only her red eyes held back her cries.
"Son, you're okay, right?" ask Khusnul worried.
"No bund. Shofi's fine." Those words made all the women there sob. The men also showed worried expressions to Shofia.
How a girl feels it's okay if a man who is about to become her husband is now lying on the operating table fighting death. Of course what Shofia said if she was okay was a mere lie.
