The Wasted Bride

The Surprise that awaits

The more mature he is, the more Arwaa understands that always giving up is important, assuage the ego, be patient, and keep quiet. Even though you know very well if there is anger that wants to wriggle when the heart is running low.

Arwaa can't blame anyone for the destruction of hope. He understands, although the ego sometimes tempts, but soon he realizes, if his hope is forced then not all will be happy. Not everything will be fun, from someone's point of view.

But there's one thing he wants to ask the universe. Is he guilty of having feelings?

Arwaa's eyes blinked a few times. It looks like he fell asleep after the tahajjud prayer.

Indeed, since the return of Attalaric, Miss Hayya, and Hanna 4 months ago, Arwaa has never been absent for the throne.

Ask to be inspired by everything that happens in his life. Arwaa has the determination not to keep hope in humans anymore because it will eventually disappear, even though it has not been implemented. To Allah is the only place where he keeps hope.

Looking at the wall clock near the door, the dawn prayer time is running out. Arwaa hurriedly moved and went to the bathroom to take ablution again.

After dawn and shower in the morning, Arwaa immediately prepares for her college needs, she has a class at half 10. There is still time to relax, he thought.

Arwaa plans to spend time in her university library before entering classes. Being in a place full of books can calm him down.

Even breakfast Arwaa only eat one bread with peanut butter plus a glass of milk. Well, these last few mingu he did lose his appetite. Just know Arwaa why. A broken heart is truly amazing.

If you ask about Grace, actually Arwaa herself is avoiding it because she is not ready to tell you about what happened. Yes, his best friend kept forcing Arwaa to tell him what had happened. Grace's intentions are good. He wanted Arwaa to feel more relieved after sharing her problems, but here Arwaa just felt that the problems that occurred did not need to be told to anyone. Let time make Arwaa make peace with it.

"Ugh..."

Arwaa grimaced holding her stomach that felt sore, along with nausea that suddenly made her want to vomit.

"Are you okay Arwaa?" The whisper of a friend sitting next to Arwaa. They are currently in the middle of college hours.

"Mh... I'm fine. I just need a bathroom," ringis Arwaa slowly stood up. But just as he was about to step up, he lost his balance due to the sudden dizziness.

Arwaa could still hear and see some friends approaching her and trying to help, but a second later her vision could not catch anything and turned dark. She's fainted.

"Arwaa... Arawaa..."

Arwaa's consciousness began to return little by little along with the feeling of a warm grasp.

"Gr.. ace.." whispered Arwaa almost inaudible.

"Don't force yourself Arwaa. I'll call the doctor" said Grace, letting go of her grip and going out without waiting for Arwaa's answer because Arwaa was still feeling weak and dizzy.

Shortly after, Grace enters with a doctor and lets the doctor examine Arwaa.

"The patient was conscious, but his blood pressure was still very low. The patient must be hospitalized temporarily. If things get better tomorrow, the patient can go home."

"Why do I doc?" Tanya Arwaa is weak.

"You have acute magh, plus low blood pressure. For that you need to be treated temporarily until at least the blood pressure is normal," explained the Doctor by name tag, William.

Arwaa simply nodded in understanding and sighed deeply after the Doctor came out of her hospital room leaving Arwaa alone with Grace.

"So what makes you like this?"

"Take a meal" replied Arwaa, closing her eyes.

Grace snorted unhappily when she heard Arwaa's reply, "In case you forget Arwaa, although I haven't been friends with you for so long, at least I know that you'll stay healthy even if you're fasting. Whether it's Monday-Thursday or David, but it never makes you like this!" Lady Grace. Perhaps Arwaa forgot that his best friend knew enough about what Arwaa always did, especially related to Arwaa worship activities.

"I just called Emma, she'll be here as soon as the surgery is over. Oh, and Emma also said she'd call your uncle."

As Arwaa opened her eyes again and turned to Grace, "Why tell my Uncle?" Ask Arwaa. It's nothing, Arwaa's self just does not want to bother Uncle Jhonny alone because the man has sacrificed a lot for him.

Grace's eyebrows are linked, "Of course it's because she's your Uncle. Who else should I contact? Your ex-husband" said Grace unknowingly reminded Arwaa of the grievous happenings in her life. But what Grace said made sense that only made Arwaa speechless.

The next day Uncle Jhonny actually came, hurriedly entering Arwaa's room. The obvious worry on her aging face made Arwaa feel even more guilty.

"I'm sorry" said Arwaa after a long time just silence.

"I'm always troubling Uncle," continued Arwaa with tears that began to drip.

I do not know the arrival of his Uncle made him feel like pouring out all the contents of the heart about what had happened between him and Attalaric.

Uncle Jhonny smiled and gently stroked Arwaa's head, "Don't talk that way. Uncle doesn't feel bothered by you at all. After all you already consider Uncle's own daughter."

Hearing that Arwaa began to sob when he had not had time to tell about anything. But he was unable to continue talking so Arwaa just cried in the warm arms of Uncle Jhonny.

"cry. Don't torture yourself by keeping hold of yourself. Let go of all that has been weighing on your heart."

Patiently Uncle Jhonny kept whispering soothing words to Arwaa and rubbing her loving back made Arwaa feel calmer. Especially after the tears she had shed.

Uncle Jhonny let go of his embrace after feeling that Arwaa was calmer. The soft rubbing of Arwaa's cheeks that began to display a slight red hue after yesterday looked very pale.

"Hurry to heal. Many are very worried about you," explained Uncle Jhonny who was replied to a nod and smile by Arwaa.

Until the afternoon Arwaa was alone with Uncle Jhonny, with Emma occasionally coming to visit during her break. Arwaa was admitted to the hospital where Emma worked. While Grace, she said her college schedule was full until the afternoon so she apologized for not being able to accompany her again in the hospital.

And as Doctor William said earlier if Arwaa can go home when her blood pressure returns to normal. For that night Arwaa was allowed to go home because her condition had been better.

It seems like Uncle Jhonny's existence is affecting Arwaa's health enough.

"Goddessa..."

A small pat on his cheek made Arwaa wake up and find Uncle Jhonny sitting on the edge of his mattress.

"Wake up the dawn prayer time for you."

"Hm... Thank you Uncle," replied Arwaa half-conscious because it was still a little sleepy and limp.

"It's okay. Pray and after that you can sleep again if you are still weak," explained Uncle Jhonny who is possessed by Arwaa.

After cleaning up and praying at dawn, Arwaa did not sleep as Uncle Jhonny told her to. Arwaa chooses to hear murotal using a headset that actually unconsciously instead makes Arwaa return to the dream world.

Uncle Jhonny who finished preparing breakfast. Immediately headed to his nephew's room to wake Arwaa up. But he was made to giggle when he saw Arwaa who was asleep under the bed with a prayer mat. A second later Uncle Jhonny pulled out his phone and photographed Arwaa sleeping.

Then send it to someone with a message, "Because you're my daughter is heartbroken. Because of you he got sick too. For that, immediately prepare yourself to cure it. I'll take Arwaa there soon."

A smile appeared on Uncle Jhonny's face after he pressed the send button on his phone.
