THE STAR OF HEAVEN
PART 3
"Lin, if you want to die don't leave it.."
"Oh mama, don't say that."
"Ck, anyway! Bantuin mamah said Laa Ilaaha Illallaah, Muhammadur Rasulullah."
"What's that?"
"Weh kitu anyway. Do not stun-setrum use kayak in tea film. Afraid of mama."
It was a conversation one week ago with Linda
***
The cardiogram on Rina's side sounded stable. Linda who had just come straight towards the chair beside the bed Rina
At first glance the doctor said there was trauma to the head due to a hard impact. Linda doesn't really understand it, she only knows her mother was a hit-and-run victim. The 8-year-old girl was sitting staring at her mother who was blown over her head and arms
Slowly Linda touched Rina's hand
"Mah.."
Lina's eyes slowly opened. His gaze slowly headed towards Linda. Looked like little Lina smiled
"Mama's son . the best.." Linda tried to move her hand to caress Linda's cheek, wiping away the tears on Linda's cheek
Andri looked at Rina and Linda with a pang of heart. To her knowledge, Linda is only living alone with her mother.
Rina's eyes blinked slowly, setting her breath about to convey something
"Well, just rest." Linda caressed Lina's hand and kissed her. Her tears started to harden
"Lin.if.ada...a anything.sama.mamah.kamu..haah.haah.haah.."
"Mom, I'll just rest first." Said Andri who immediately moved to Linda's side
Rina shook her head slowly
"Find.lord Wijaya.the address.at book.black..mamah.complete.sama.number..telephone.."
Rina looked at Andri with begging eyes
"Please..Linda.at.antar.ya.pak..Andri's.."
Andri bit her lip. Then nodded slowly
Lina's eyes started to look up in turns. Linda held onto Rina's hand. The little girl already had a feeling that the time of Rina was near.
"She called the doctor." Andri said, leaving immediately
"Well.laa.."
Linda choked, the girl brought her lips closer to Lina's ears. Lead him slowly
"Laa Ilaaha Illallaah, Muhammadur the Prophet.."
Lina's mouth twitched. Her tears are dripping
"Laa Ilaaha Illallaah, Muhammadur the Prophet.."
Linda led him back, many times.
"Pbuy.ilaaha..Illalleah..Mu.hammedur..Ra.mazelhullah.." Stammered Rina saying it. Then his eyes closed. The cardiogram sounded out loud, revealing a straight line
"Excuse me.." a doctor pushed Linda backwards. Andri swiftly restrained Linda's small body. Linda didn't see what the doctor was doing. His eyes were closed by tears
The doctor breathed and looked at the clock. "Time of death at 11:25."
***
It's been three days since Rina was buried. Linda is now living a kara. Food needs are routinely delivered by PKK mothers
Some of the neighboring mothers accompanied him for only a few days, the rest of them only delivered just a side dish. Linda is completely alone now
Rina takes Linda to the village alone without a man with a husband. Lina also never said anything about themselves to the neighbors
Some neighbors always gossiped about Rina and Linda who did not have a father. Some say Rina was abandoned by her husband, even worse some say Rina was pregnant out of wedlock. Some questions are often asked by neighbors either directly or implied
But Rina remained silent. Years changed, the neighbors there were no longer disturbing the lives of Rina and Linda. Besides because Rina is hardworking and always kind to her neighbors.
After all, Rina was not a threat to the mothers there. With scar on her face, making the mothers there calm down, at least their husbands would not be tempted by Lina's physique
Linda also grew up to be a smart and diligent girl. Although Linda is a little not confident because of the status attached to her.
Linda knows that she cannot depend on her neighbors forever. It cannot trouble them. Linda must also fulfill Rina's last mandate, looking for Lord Wijaya
***
"Sir, Linda wants to find Mr. Wijaya at the request of the mother." said Linda when meeting Andri at school
Andri looked at Linda while sighing. This girl's a little stubborn, out of nowhere
"Well, does Linda know where to look?"
The little girl handed me Rina's book. There is a complete written address of Mr. Wijaya along with his phone number.
Again the girl nodded while showing Rina's atm card
"You like to invite Linda to take money in the box near the bank Beri. Number tester, money out." Said Linda plain
Andri laughing. What the box means by Linda must be an ATM
"Yes already, then the permission to the principal nganterin you."
***
Mr. Wijaya looked at the little girl in front of him. The atmosphere is not much different from Farah. The difference is the girl's hair. Farah had long, wavy black hair, while Linda had straight hair
"You.boy Fa.. um, Rina?"
Linda's eyes blinked looking at Mr. Wijaya. "Yes, sir."
"Where's Rina?" Ask Mr. Wijaya while looking behind Linda
"Bu Rina has died in an accident sir.." Andri answered the question of Mr. Wijaya
"Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rooji'uun. continue you are the same who son?" Mr. Wijaya looked towards Linda. Mr. Wijaya bent his knees, aligning his height with Linda
"Alone sir. Mom said Linda was told to look for me."
"I'm sorry, if I may know you're ready Miss Rina?"
"You could say I was his. I'm Rina's father's cousin."
"So you're Linda's grandfather?"
Mr. Wijaya's eyes looked at Linda. His lips smiled while nodding. Let people know, Linda is Rina's child. Most importantly, the girl was already with him now
"Call grandfather yes, son. Grandpa's gonna take care of Linda here." Lord Wijaya gently caressed Linda's head
Linda smiled as she nodded
***
"Who is Om?" Tanya Yono who happened to visit the house of master Wijaya. Yono saw Linda playing with the doll that Wijaya had just bought
After marriage, Yono chose to live in a different house with lord Wijaya. But his arrival this time was to persuade Mr. Wijaya so that he was allowed to stay in the house of Lord Wijaya
The Yono company went bankrupt due to its penchant for gambling. His house was confiscated by the bank to cover his company's debts
Actually he still has a lot of debt, therefore he is targeting the company of Mr. Wijaya. He wants to control the company and property of Lord Wijaya
"He's the child that Rina brought." replied Mr. Wijaya
Yono was surprised, quickly turning his head to master Wijaya
"Farah's son?" Desis Yono
Yono looked at Linda who was playing by herself
"Damn! Then it will be difficult to take the company om Wijaya." Rutuk Yono in heart.
Seen Diva, Yono's son approached Linda. The Diva quickly snatches Linda's toy. Linda tried to defend it but Diva pushed Linda so hard that the little girl fell backwards
Instantly Yono smiled cunningly
"Diva! It can't be!" Said Yono loudly
Diva looked at her father in disbelief. This time Yono was yelling at him
Yono approached Linda and stroked her head. Then look towards the Diva and pull it
"Follow Papa!"
Diva rebelled while shouting no accept. Yono brought Diva into the guest room, where she and her family would stay
"Mas, you snapped a Diva?!" Anggun said Yono's wife with a raised voice
"Yes, Papa why the hell even belain the village boy?!" Diva Protest
Yono stroked Diva's head while saying quietly
"You know who that is? He's Farah's son! Om Wijaya's grandson."
Gracefully shut her mouth "Child of Farah? Then what's our plan?"
"Who's Farah?" Ask Diva. The 7-year-old asked a lot. Yono coded for Diva to be quiet and listen
"We can use that kid. If in front of Wijaya, you must be kind to him. Om Wijaya will let us stay here because his grandson will need a playmate." Yono immediately looked at Diva
"Th gelay! Diva does not want to!" Said Diva while glaring
"Pretend. We can stay here for free." Yono
"Yes, you like it here, right? There's a pool, there's a driver, there's a lot of cars. Just pretend that in front of Grandpa Wijaya. Later mama buyin toys that you want in the mall." Angkun
The Diva exhaled a rough breath and nodded
