Jamal watched the father confused.

"And one more thing, don't ever think that this Mas hasn't done anything for your Abah. Maybe without realizing it, Mas has done enough to do the best for your Abah. If only Mas could think like that, of course, Mas would not have feelings like today, right? We better think the opposite. How we will deal with our own feelings. Sorry if I talk too much. Then I continue my activities. Mas also, you should immediately decide how. Excuse me first then." The father said while patting Jamal's shoulder.

Jamal was still silent even after the father had passed from before him. It felt even more heavy after talking about this matter with the person he had just met. But somehow, Jamal felt ....

"Even the words are very similar to what Zahra said. What, I thought I shouldn't worry?" muttered Jamal slowly. Then, Jamal also remembered his purpose to go to the musholla.

*****

Four days later since Abah entered the hospital, Abah was finally able to go home with Umi, Jamal and Zahra. Because after the last examination, Abah's situation was much better. The doctor's advice for Abah, do not be too active too heavy, must rest a lot considering the condition of his heart is weak. If too doing heavy work can be fatal to his body. Actually Abah is still not allowed to go home. Abah said, he was not at home if lingering in the hospital. So, with a heavy heart the doctor also allowed Abah to go home, but with the condition to diligently check up. And Abah agreed.

*****

The next morning on Sunday Jamal asked for permission to leave the house because there was an appointment with Rival and Dival. Previously Dival asked them to meet because he wanted to ask the news Abahya Jamal.

"So, how's Abah elo doing?" ask Dival.

"Baren Abah has returned home from the hospital, although in fact it still can not be the same Doctor. But Abah wanted to go home. He said he didn't feel at home for long there."

"Yes, anyone would not feel at home for long in the hospital. I know how it feels there and I know what Abah elo rasain, because I was treated in the hospital, too" said Dival.

"Gue think elo has been in the hospital because of ambeyen elo deh disease," said Rival origin. "Or if not less disease elo numbers that make elo in the care of sono. It's just the difference in the RSJ."

Dival leaned towards Rival, he took a swing to hit Rival with an annoyed look on his face. "Smort lo! It's good to talk, you playboy fringe!" it means Rival. Now he's back at Jamal. "But, Abah elo is really nothing, right?"

Jamal nodded convincingly. "Yes, now Abah is much better. Abah also I have to check up routine anyway."

"Elo is patient, Jamal. Elo again in the same test above. God gave this trial to elo, it means God loves you both elo and Abah elo. Elo certainly can chew on this, I am sure elo this person can always accept any situation with patience and roomy. And elo got it all, I believe the same elo. Surely Abah is proud to have a son like elo, Jamal." Rival said to encourage Jamal.

"Yes, thank you very much, Rival. I would do everything possible for Abah. So that Abah can stay healthy," Jamal replied slowly. Then, he noticed Rival for a moment. "Rival ... what, elo have spoken sama—"

Dival feels sorry for his friend on this one. He said, "Rival, I think, there is no harm if you try to talk to each other. I know a little, but I also know a lot about what you do. I can feel the pain when people are stuck with elo, but elo will not try to look at him. Elo must have realized that, right? You can do it, right? It feels like when you want to talk to someone, but that person doesn't want to listen to you at all."

Rival tight-lipped. He put his face on the table and did not move.

"What Dival says is true, Rival ... there is no harm in talking well with Mother Elo," added Jamal. "You know something about elo, Rival?"

Rival raised his head and looked at Jamal. "What?"

"Gue returned the words that you said to me. Gini, how can elo talk and nasehatin me like before, while elo himself can not do it for yourself elo. With ease elo talk to me, but elo himself has not done anything. I know, if I get hurt again and I have to be patient with it. But, can you accept it yourself? Have you tried to be patient and face problems? But, what I see from elo is, that elo try to run away from the problems that you face. Elo is not trying to deal with it, and elo is seen running from this problem. Elo just avoids problems without looking for a way out. Elo avoid the reality that is in front of elo."

Rival is silent again. He thought about Jamal's words.

"What, it seems obvious that I'm trying to run away from the problems I'm facing?" ask Rival lirih.

"Without knowing it, the elo has shown it, Rival. I really don't mean for maksa elo to talk to Mother elo. But, aren't they the only ones who can make you feel calm? Think about it." Jamal watched Rival who was still silent.

"Rival, we know not new yesterday and also not new today, right? We have often been together like this, we have become successful and many changes. But, what still hasn't changed at all it's just elo, Rival. Only the elo is still kayaking first, nothing in the pendem itself. Never wanted to tell the same story. Elo always carries the burden alone. How do we know what elo rasain. So when ... when can you make that change?" dival toilet.

Rival took a deep breath while rubbing his face. Then I said, "Well, this isn't what I wanted."

"But, in the word is not what you want, there is something you definitely want, is not. Elo just didn't realize it. Or, as I said earlier, you try to avoid it, which you really expect," Jamal said again.

"I don't know what I'm doing either."

Jamal chuckles amusedly. "Elo can nasehatin me, but elo itself can not nasehatin for yourself. Elo it's like a kid who's not yet time to get big. Yes, for now."

"Huh? What's that supposed?" ask Dival confused. Jamal chuckles at Dival's expression, but he doesn't respond. Of course Dival is getting curious because of it.

While Rival was still frozen in place now. He thought a lot about what Jamal said about him. During this time Rival always drowned in his own problems and it still continues to this day. And, what Jamal said is most likely entirely true, that he was always trying to run from his problems without being willing to face it. And, without knowing the result, Rival had already avoided it first.
