THE STRUGGLE OF A WIDOW

YUKI TOMB

"Mama knows baby.. You know how you feel, too.." Doctor Retno grabs Ayana in her arms.

How much Retno loved her daughter-in-law with everything she had.

Doctor Retno realized, how heavy the test of her daughter-in-law that if in her position, not necessarily she will be as strong as Ayana.

***

Ayana has been hospitalized for two days. And today Ayana has been allowed to go home by doctor Retno, her own father-in-law.

An hour had Ayana waiting for Rayan her husband in the hospital lobby, but Rayan had not been seen in plain sight.

Ayana, who is patient in nature, still faithfully sits in her chair waiting for the husband's invitation.

Retno's doctor had asked Ayana to wait for Rayan in her room.

But because Ayana is tired of being in the room, and wants to quickly visit Yuki's grave, she said, until he decided to wait for Rayan in the hospital lobby after Retno doctor came out of his room because he had to handle patients in other rooms.

While elsewhere, Rayan is on a pilgrimage to Yuki's tomb.

Rayan stared at the tombstone that read Yuki Raisha.

A flash of Yuki's face laughing loosely, smiling even sulking flashed in Rayan's memory.

How much his heart misses Yuki's presence. A child who does not understand what.

He just needs affection from both parents, needs protection, needs a decent life and needs encouragement for him to fight against pain, has now lost.

"*Yuki darling.. Papa's son.. Hope you're happy there, son.. Papa here brings happy news, Yuki has now become an older brother.."'

"In my mom's belly, there's a baby dede, Yuki's sister.. Even if you live in a different place, but your love for you will be no different*.."

"Yuki, pray mama over there, son..? I hope your mom will always be happy.. Can continue his life with happiness with his father and younger brother Yuki.."

"**P**what missed you son.. Papa loves you.. If you could hug you right now, papa wouldn't let you go.."

Without feeling it, Rayan's tears fell slowly wetting her cheeks.

Rayan really really misses Yuki, the son she continued, who has now been gone for a long time.

At the hospital, Ayana who began to feel sore on her waist, grabbed the phone that was in her bag and began looking for Rayan's number stored in her cellphone contact.

Repeatedly Ayana tried to contact Rayan, but still did not get a response.

Ayana finally lowered her head and grabbed the clothes bag beside her and moved from there.

Ayana chose to go home using a taxi service.

Ayana gets out of the taxi and walks lethargic towards the grave of Yuki Raisha. Seen from far away, there is a male figure who is mingling in front of Yuki's tomb is still wet, which has not been planted with green grass specifically for the tomb in that place.

Ayana slowed her footsteps when she found out who was there. Ayana stood beside the tent that was still attached there without intending to say hello.

"Wanna..?" Arman was surprised to see Ayana just a short distance ahead of him as he turned around to return home after finishing praying to Yuki.

Ayana looked at her ex-husband's face in silence. In Ayana's mind asked, where did Arman know Yuki's grave was.

It was impossible for her family or even her husband to contact her ex-husband.

"Ayan.. Why can't you tell me about Yuki.. Did you forget that Yuki is my son, my flesh and blood..? Why Ayana..? You separated me and Yuki.. Yuki must be disappointed with you.." Arman vents his emotions at Ayana.

Arman doesn't even care Ayana is a meek woman. Arman snapped as if Ayana was a cruel woman.

Ayana stepped towards the chair that was inside the tent right at Yuki's grave.

The tent that is still neatly installed with orange curtains like orange sky that Yuki always misses.

"Have you forgotten what you're treating me and Yuki like..? have you forgotten how I begged your consciousness to accompany her, always there for her when she was sick..? Do I need to remind you again..?" Ayana said without the slightest trepidation

While in the hospital, Rayan is confused to find Ayana's whereabouts. Retno doctor who has been waiting for Ayana in her nursery, was also made busy by Rayan.

Rayan got down from the fourth floor back to the car looking for her cell phone which she had deliberately left there since at Yuki's funeral.

Rayan rubbed her face rough when she saw the screen of her phone there were five missed calls there from the wife an hour ago.

"Vaalaikumsalam.. Bi, Ayana's home yet..?" Rayan is increasingly worried to hear the answer of his housekeeper that Ayana is not home yet.

Meanwhile, Ayana's phone can not be contacted.
