The Love Competition
7. Farewell to eyang


Dila sat down while holding her grandfather's hand . The girl looked at the face of the grandfather who looked calm .


What he heard from the doctor was like a dream for him , a nightmare that made his chest feel tight and narrow . The girl took a deep breath many times . Her tears still seeped out even though she had tried to hold it .


" What should I do ? " Dila looked at her beloved old man .


" If you already know this.., at least say goodbye correctly " muttered Dila as if talking to yourself .


Take action on an uncertain outcome, or give up on his grandfather's current state .


Two equally bad choices .


The same two possibilities neither he nor his grandfather wanted .


It takes a miracle, but whether the miracle is still there while he spent with the grandfather who is always healthy and fit until now according to the doctor is a miracle .


His conversation with doctor Andre again flashed in his head .


*****


" There was a small splinter on his head that could not be removed in an operation .


Actually he already knew this seven years ago with the previous doctor .


But I only learned about this two years ago and suggested a repeat operation to remove the debris .


but he didn't want to do it because he didn't want to take the risk "


" What is the risk of the doctor ? " Task Dila


" The fragment is near the brain called the cerebral cortex, a slight error may hurt the part . so the risk is very large "doctor Andre tried to explain.


" Dok..please explain in the language that I understand "Dila did not understand .


" This is the probability of succeeding only thirty percent .


let's say we managed to remove the splinter, but there will still be nerves injured so even if your grandfather survived , after surgery it is likely that your grandfather will experience paralysis or something related to brain activity "doctor Andre explains .


" And that's why my grandfather refused a repeat operation ?" Tanya Dila who answered the nod of doctor Andre .


" At this time the conditions are not good , to save his life we have to take action even with the possibility of thirty percent and the risk is there . or you give up like him , ' he said , Waiting for time and hoping for a miracle "doctor Andre said warmly .


" What did my grandfather choose at the time ? " Task Dila .


" He said he didn't want to live life in another agony, and was ready to meet his creator, but right now the decision is in your hands .


we will follow him and prepare for everything "doctor Andre said .

How is it possible ?


these two years his grandfather's condition was very bad .holding a tremendous pain that could appear at any time and he did not know it .


" you really are a bad grandson Wulandari Ratnadila " whispered to Dila to yourself .


" Neng..there is something that I have to say "said mang Karman who suddenly appeared .


" Oh ..no now mang "answer Dila without turning .


"not now...Dila wanted to be alone with her eyes "murm as if talking to herself .


mang karman looked at Dila with pity .


" It's...." Mang Karman held out a letter . Dila stared at the letter flatly .


" Eyang asked me to give it to neng Dila if something like this was happening.." Unfinished Mang Karman spoke Dila grabbed the letter quickly , and immediately left the room .


" What is his wish ? " Mister Gunawan who just entered with Jordi asked Mang Karman .


" Go quietly "answer mang Karman flat . He sat beside the bed . Mr. Gunawan patted the back of Jordi's hand holding his wheelchair .


" Follow Dila..." His orders on Jordi . The young man immediately stepped in search of the girl whom the grandfather meant .


Elsewhere, Dila with her trembling hand held the letter .


" It turns out like this "said Dila while taking a deep breath . Slowly he opened the letter, and began to read it in his heart .

Dila wiped away the tears that ran down her cheeks . she inhaled a few breaths then bowed . The girl's legs went up on the chair, her hands hugged her knees and the girl's back shook .


Dila cried in silence .


Only a sobbing was heard occasionally in the silence of a third that night .


it felt like a dream .he always swore not to receive such a farewell letter, quite her mother . but reality says otherwise .


" eyang...why? , why did you do this.why ...? " the girl hugged the letter from the grandfather .


not far from the place jordi looked at him while leaning against the wall.he could only stare at the floor and count the tiles in front of him . For the first time his heart was touched seeing someone look so fragile
