Still Jefri POV's.
After Mama calmed down a bit, we just stepped out of the ICCU room, through the main door.
It doesn't feel like it's dark. The outside garden visible from the waiting room window was starting to become invisible. Only the typical garden lights illuminate out there.
While the rest of my family members have started to arrive, gathered while chatting with Jerry.
I led Mama to walk, approaching them. Mama sat down beside Jerry while trying to forcefully smile at the others.
"Mama hasn't eaten since noon," said Nita slowly approaching me who was still standing a little away from them all.
"Have you eaten yet?" I asked back.
"Udah, you're with Jordy. It's from noon Mama dalem nemenin Papa."
"Oh, yeah, I'll take Mama to eat."
Nita sits down again, playing with her son Jordy. As I returned to circulate my gaze to all corners of this room, where were my wife and in-laws? My inner.
I decided to sit on the other seat, not to be collected with the family Mama and Papa who came to visit. One by one they alternately entered the room to swipe Papa.
I rogoh my pants pocket, looking for my phone to contact Tika. Just now I was about to press the green button, suddenly Tika came with my in-laws carrying a crackle bag in her hand.
"Darling!" my reproach.
Tika turned, "Hey.." she approached me.
"What's that?" pointing with my mouth.
"Oh, this is a drink box. I put it there first, right? You want?"
I'm shaking. I saw my in-laws hugging Mama and then talking. Tika came back to me after giving the drink to Nita.
"Where is Papa's condition?" tika asked while holding my hand.
"Udah ga papa. Later when the clock runs out, Papa will install a hose to eat."
"Why you?"
"What?" many confused.
Next to Tika's hand touched my cheek. Cupped with his palm. Warm and soft.
"From your face looks, if there is something you think. What's?"
I looked at Tika's face, her eyes were so beautiful to me.
"Hm?" again while affirming his gaze to me.
I touched the back of her hand that cupped my cheek, I held it and then I took it off my cheek. I hesitated to tell him about Papa's condition, as per the doctor.
"Why the hell? Something to do with Papa?" ask again.
I exhaled a rough breath, "I'm just a papa's pingin healed."
"Surely, dear! You should be sure dong. Papa must be strong, must be healed."
"Thank you, baby?"
Tika nodded her head slowly and smiled. I peeked at her flash. Then my gaze turned to the figure of Mama who was still cool chatting with my mother-in-law.
"Mom haven't eaten yet, I want to invite Mama to eat at the deket depot here," I said.
"From noon today?" tanya Tika was astonished.
"Yes, Nita just told you that too."
"Yes, don't delay dong."
I turned to look at Tika and then stood up to Mama and my in-laws who looked more and more cool talking.
"Sorry Mah, Ma, I'm disturbing," interrupted me who then focused on looking at Mama.
"We're eating yuk, Ma, I'm a laper," I asked.
"Mama's not hungry yet, are you eating alone? Or your wife's there..."
"Maa, said Nita, Mama hasn't eaten since lunch. If now Mama does not eat, then Mama lemes' body, if so, who's Papa's truss?" Tika helped me to persuade Mama.
Finally, my mom wanted to eat. I left Tika and my in-laws, as well as my other family. I was alone with Mama, going to eat.
----------------------
Tika POVs.
I let Jefri take his mother to dinner together. Because I'm sure, his mother needs Jefri very much.
"Tika," called Mamah while touching my hand.
I focused on my own thoughts, "Eh, yes, why, Mah?"
Mamah shook her head slowly, "You are, in-laws have not eaten the wild. Mom never did not...."
"Well, I just found out. Kirain had lunch Mama Alena had eaten," I said.
"Next time you will see your two in-laws again."
"Yes, Mah, yes."
Then Jordy came to me, invited me to accompany him to play puzzle games on mobile.
About two hours have passed. Some of Jefri's family have already returned home. Only the brothers left from his Papa and of course Jerry, Nita and Jordy are still cool playing games.
"Onty, why the hell did Grandpa have to sleep alone in there?" jordy's chirps suddenly stopped his game.
I was surprised to hear this boy say that. I turned to Mamah who also heard Jordy's question.
"But why can't Jordy see Grandpa inside?"
"Jordy.. Jordy was a kid. Later if Jordy has grown up, already in school, Jordy can go in there," I explained to answer the question.
Jordy shifted her butt that was sitting on my lap. Side by side while looking at me.
"What's Grandpa sick about, Onty?" he said slowly, "the situation earlier, Jordy asked Papa if Mama was not answered."
I smiled at him, then looked at Jordy's parents in a flash, "Grandfather was just short of breath. So in there, Doctor and Sister again help Grandpa."
"Oh, that. But Grandpa's coming home, isn't he, Onty?"
"Yes dong, definitely go home. Is Jordy the same as Grandpa?"
"Yes, Onty. Yesterday Jordy didn't see Grandpa" he said, shaking his lips. Funnier.
I gently stroked the top of his head, then I held Jordy in my arms. I love this kid the way I love Iceland, my brother Max's son.
Not long after, Jefri and Mama-In-law came. They can smile wide. Mama Alena's face is also fresh.
"Well, the others are home?" mama Alena asked Om Rudi, my Father-in-law's brother.
"Yes, they just send greetings and hopefully Ka Atta will recover quickly, he said" said Om Rudi.
Jefri approached me, sitting next to me while shuffling Jordy's hair. Then smile at me.
"Yuk, I'll take you home with Mamah. You slept at Mamah's house?" jefri.
"Nonsense. Let me take Mamah myself. I'll be back later. Here's the car keys," I asked.
"You rest, sleep in Mamah's house. I have to work tomorrow."
"This once, don't ask me to fight you. I drove Mamah home, and then I went home to get a change of clothes. Trus we are both here," I insisted.
Jefri exhaled while closing his eyes for a moment. Then look back at me. Then he relented, reached into his pants pocket to retrieve the car keys and gave the keys to me.
I gave her the sweetest smile I had. Then with her thin smile, one of her hands gently caressed the top of my head, shuffling slightly the top of my hair. Just like he did before with the shoulder of Jordy's head.
"Jordy is the same as Om Dul? Onty wants to bring Grandma Ida home," I explained to Jordy who had been busy with gadget games in her hands.
"Wouldn't! Jordy wants to be the same Onty Tika aja," exclaimed Jordy who is still focused on the game.
Nita, her mother who saw that came straight to us. Then persuade Jordy to come down from my lap. I'm just visa smiling looking at Jordy's spoiled behavior towards me.
"Jordy, Onty wants to go home, come here with Mama," persuaded Nita.
But still Jordt did not budge. Just as Jefri was about to pick him up, suddenly Jordy threw her gadget carelessly and hugged me firmly. I'm appalled.
"Wouldn't! It wants the same Onty! Don't want to!" yelled Jordy hysterically.
"Sst! Jordy can't do that," I said trying to calm him down while stroking his back, "have you? Don't get it, Onty doesn't like it if Jordy snapped at Mama," I added.
"Udah, let me drive you home with Jordy. Come on, Jordy, let's go home" Jerry told Nita and tried to let go of Jordy's hug on me.
Jordy's getting her hug hard. I can't bear to.
"Let me just take you. All between Mamah, how's it?" I asked Jerry.
"Yes, let Tika aja interracial," added Jefri, "Jordy go home huh? Dianterin is the same Onty Tika, is it time for bed?"
Jordy raised her face to look at me. I looked back at him.
"Come home? Onty anterin, will you?" I said with a big smile, "don't cry anymore. Boy time cry anyway?"
"What if a guy can't cry?" asked Jordy while sobbing stifled.
His two reddish-glazed eyes looked at me, sparkling from the tears that had flooded both of his eye fertilizers. The tip of his nose was the same, flushed. Both of his lips look manyun with the rhythm of sobs that still occasionally appear.
"No way to dong! That guy has to be strong. Must be firm," I said while rubbing Jordy's cheeks that were still moistened with tears earlier.
Jordy let go of his embrace to me. Then he wiped his own tears. Get off my lap and then turn back to look at me.
"Let's go home, Onty. Your mother's kasian is waiting," said Jordy firmly who made us who saw him laugh softly giggling.
I shook my head slowly, then stood up to grab Jordy's hand which she thrust at me. Mamah, Nita, Jordy and I will leave immediately. Then we walked together to the car park accompanied by my husband, Jefri.
"Be careful on the road? Go back to the place don't speed!" jefri said while opening the car door.
"Yes, just calm down. You want to nitip something?" bargain when I'm sitting perfectly behind the wheel.
"Ga there is."
Buucca..
The car door was closed by Jefri.
I'm lowering the car window.
"Isn't there really anything I want to buy or take from home?" ask again, making sure.
"Yes. You came back here safely, I'm more than happy" he said, smiling again.
I just laughed when I heard her words. I turned on the engine of the car, Jordy exclaimed as he 'fuddled' on Jefri in the back seat with his Mama.
While Mamahku sat in front, beside my steering chair, accompanying me.
"Well you go home, Jeff?" pamit Mamah's.
"Yes, Mah, thank you for looking at my Papa."
"It should be" replied Mamah.
I heard Mamah's reply, smiling. Like dejavu. I don't know. Like I've heard this sentence before from the same mouth. But I forgot when and talked about what.
