The Twins Onar

There Likes to Be Grief

"Assynolajet. Grandpa, grandma". The twins said hello together and immediately hugged their grandparents at home. It looks like Prasaja's grandfather is lying weakly on the bed. He looked back and smiled at his two favorite grandchildren.

"Vaalaikumsalam. You've arrived". Grandma Prasaja welcomed her two grandchildren and also her daughter-in-law. Do not forget the twins introduced both partners.

"Dad, sorry Airil and Eneng just came now dad". Airil hugged the father's weak body. Eneng. Without feeling their tears.

"What a hell, kid. You are healthy. I understand what your busyness is like. This is my father's son-in-law's granddaughter". With a weak voice Prasaja's grandfather tried to greet Melody and Zee. They took turns kissing the hands of Prasaja's grandfather.

After greeting his grandfather and grandmother, the twins with their respective partners and Eneng immediately entered the room prepared by Arjuna's wife. Airil chose to accompany his father.

They rested for a while because they were too tired. But not with Eneng. Eneng is busy helping Arjuna's wife. Because of Tania, Juna's wife is pregnant. Eneng asked Tania to do a light one so as not to get too tired.

"You sit down, son. Let my mom do the work. Cassian's mom's granddaughter later if you're too tired". Tania smiled hearing Eneng's words. Since the first time they met Arjuna did introduce Eneng and Airil as his orantu.

"Gapapa. This doesn't make me tired. Mama didn't rest yet. Just came straight to the kitchen". Tania was worried that her mother-in-law would be exhausted because she had just arrived to help in the kitchen.

"No son. How many months will my granddaughter be born brother". He gently rubbed Tania's stomach which looked big.

"Three months more mah. Mama can accompany Tania later at birth". Tania is a patio orphan all this time she was taken care of by her uncle. Eneng always paid attention to Tania without distinguishing Tania from her biological son. And Tania was very happy with the warmth from Eneng and Airil.

"Definitely darling. Later mama will accompany her sister until she can independently take care of her grandfather. Or brother wants to be at mom's house". Eneng offers Tania to give birth in the capital if she wants to.

"No mah. Later no one accompanied Grandpa and Mas Juna". Eneng smiled at Tania's explanation. Arjuna smiled happily at Tania who was so close to Eneng. Arjuna stopped while passing in front of the kitchen after hearing the conversation of his two beloved women.

Eneng had prepared food for lunch. Including making a special menu for his father-in-law. Melody was the first to leave the room and help Eneng prepare lunch.

Melody also feeds my mother. Even though you can still eat alone, Melody still feeds you. Zee wakes up after Tania wakes him up. They had lunch together after finishing the prayer dhuhur merjaah masjid for the men.

"Mahs. Papa where I don't eat with us". Thian sought the whereabouts of the papa because he did not eat together after returning from the mosque.

"There's a grandfather deck room. This is Mama bringing papa lunch". Eneng prepared a plate that has been filled with lunch menu for Airil.

Eneng immediately met her husband and brought her lunch. Eneng's mother-in-law was eating with her granddaughter. Understand how the husband feels. He kept his father company and would not be replaced.

"Bah, eat yuk first". Said Eneng slowly because he did not want to wake his father-in-law who had fallen asleep after eating and taking his medicine.

"Yes mah". Airil picked up the plate that Eneng had brought. Slowly he began to feed the depths of his mouth.

"That. What is father's disease". Arjuna never said about what disease Prasaja's father suffered. I don't want to make my grandmother sad.

"Maybe due to the father's age factor as well, the father's condition appears weak". Airil continued his words. He rubbed the husband's arm. He can only encourage the husband from his attention. Airil didn't finish his food. And it was Eneng who finished the meal. Because Eneng had not eaten, but he did not want Airil to worry so he lied to say he had eaten. Under the pretext of fearing Mubadzir, Eneng finished the meal.

Eneng asked Airil to sleep even though it was only for a while, so that Airil's condition also remained fit when looking after his father. With all the bow Eneng, Airil also wanted to sleep for a while. Fathan took the place of his father to guard his grandfather. Eneng accompany and make sure Airil really rest.

They took turns to take care of Prasaja's grandfather. Because several times the grandfather regurgitated all of his stomach contents. Airil was monitoring his father intensively. My father refused to be taken to the hospital. Luckily Airil brought his equipment.

"What about grandpa". Now it is Arjuna's turn to accompany Airil to take care of his grandfather. Airil guarded the father while reciting the holy verses of the Qur'an. Because of His help that Airil could hope for.

"Wish grandpa could survive bang. Grandpa no longer wants to be treated. Papa can only take care with makeshift equipment". Airil had asked Arjuna to buy infusions and other equipment to take care of the father at home.

"Bah, actually papa already knows what kind of sick grandpa". Indeed complications are only a bouquet of Airil so that the family is not too sad. Airil and Arjuna know what really hurts Prasaja's grandfather.

"Yes, papa knows bang. From his current condition, it was in accordance with the analysis of the doctor who examined grandfather. Cancer soared". Airil answered softly. He was still devastated after reading all the information from the father's doctor who handled the father. Moreover, the condition of the father began to weaken not long ago.

"What can still be saved reward". Arjuna still has hope that his grandfather can be healed.

"Only one percent chance of bang. Papa had contacted a personal doctor who always grandfather visited. The cancer has started to spread. Medical care at the hospital today is the same as we treat ourselves at home. The doctor advised me to stay home". Airil's explanation is not clear, but Arjuna understands.

They fell silent again as Thian entered the grandfather's room. Thian wants to replace his father to look after his grandfather, but Airil refuses. With the reason that Airil can monitor his grandfather. Thian understood. Thian only kissed the grandfather's forehead before leaving his grandfather's room.

At midnight, when Airil checked his father's condition again, the father woke up from his sleep. Prasaja's father smiled to see his son accompanying him.

"Ril, you must have known what a sick father son. Because you're a doctor and can't be lied to". Prasaja's father giggled slowly. Airil also smiled to see the father who tried hard.

"Why not tell from the beginning. Even check it out to lie to mom. Why the hell yeah". Prasaja's father again giggled to hear the son protest. He knew the boy was very worried about him.

"Dad just didn't want to make your mom cry all the time, son. You know what your mother is like. I'd like to, if you leave later your mother doesn't cry too long. I don't want your mother's pretty face filled with tears". Airil tried to hold back her tears from dripping. That is how his father loves his mother. Even his father did not want the woman he loved to cry continuously.

"Ril, take care of your family, son. Remember dad's message, don't make decisions when you're fighting. Apologize to Grandpa's grandchildren, son. If grandfather can't be there on their happy day. Also tell Arjuna and his wife, sorry grandfather can not pet grandpa great-grandfather. Love your wife, son. Don't make her cry. Tell your mother, don't keep crying. Dad doesn't like it. And I'll leave your father's will to you for your great-granddaughter. Tell your mother that I love your mother very much, son". Airil could not hold back his tears. Arjuna had also woken up when the grandfather spoke to Airil. They cry together.

"Dad, don't be like that. Daddy strong. Dad has to fight. I can see my dad's woman crying". Airil tried to strengthen his father. But my father could only smile.

"Don't pretend you don't know. You understand the condition of the father's body that is not good. Ashhadu an laa ilaaha illallaahu, wa asyhaduanna muhammadar rasuulullah". After saying the two sentences of the creed, Prasaja's father closed his eyes with a smile.

Airil and Arjuna shouted after seeing Prasaja's father exhale his last breath. Fathan and Thian, who were still awake in the middle room, immediately broke into his grandfather's room. They cry when they find out what happened.

Slowly one by one the family is informed and awakened. Airil's mother fainted when she heard the news. Melody and Zee tell their families in the capital. And they're getting ready for Airil's parents' house.
