Naysila shook her head, not believing in any of this. Not only him, Zulfikar was also made dumbfounded by this reality.
How could all this have happened by chance.
Uhuck-huck
The sound of Hamidah's cough broke the silent atmosphere in the room. Everyone immediately focused on Hamidah.
"Mother's chest is sick," Hamidah held her chest tight.
"Shortly, Mom. I'm calling the doctor ma'am." Aisyah quickly ran out to look for a doctor, while Naysila stared at her mother's deathly pale face. Everyone around him was panicking to see Hamidah, as well as Lukman who could not stay in his wheelchair. Seeing his wife's condition as it is now, Lukman feels like the most useless husband. There was nothing he could do but watch.
Hamidah, hang!
With unruly feelings, Zulfikar tried to calm Lukman who wanted to get off his wheelchair, "Patient father!" Zulfikar holds lukman's hand.
The doctor who came immediately rushed to ask the nurse to check on Hamidah.
"I'm asking everyone to come out first!" everyone was preparing to rush out of the room except for Naysila who was still silently sculpting. Make the others look at each other in wonder.
"Nay, let's get out! I need to be treated immediately." Aisyah pulled on Naysila's arm, no response from Naysila's body making everything confused.
There was a moment of silence until Naysila opened her mouth.
"Married me now!" Naysila spoke as she closed her eyes.
Zulfikar stared in wonder.
What'd he say?
"Nay. You why?" Aisyah looked at her sister, not believing what her sister said.
Naysila opened her eyes slowly, then stared intently at Zulfikar.
"Married me now! didn't you hear it Zulfikar? ... Oh, or do you want to be a man that God hates for having neglected a trust?" naysila's voice rose as she stared at the man who was pushing the wheelchair.
Zulfikar looked at Naysila and the others alternately in disbelief, what should he do now?
Oh, Allah. What should I do?
Lukman moved his hand trying to get Zulfikar's attention.
Zulfikar, marry my son now!
Zulfikar saw tears falling from Lukman's eye pelup as if asking Zulfikar to do so. Just shake Zulfikar's heart churns.
God, what should I do now? The servant is not ready.
Zulfikar's mind really rumbled.
While in a state of turmoil, Zulfikar's gaze suddenly fell on the girl who was currently not blinking a single glance at him, 'Nurul'.
I can't do this, I just love him.
"Do what you want to do now! patients need quick treatment" said the doctor surprised everyone, "don't blame me if anything happens with the patient." The doctor broke the tense atmosphere.
No, Zul! don't do that. I beg.
A tear to fall. Zulfikar could see it clearly. Nurul even shook his head slowly. Staring at him, as if asking Zulfikar not to do that.
But you have to make a decision. He closed his eyes with a heavy heart, He dared himself to take the consequences of what he did . He walked up to Mr. Kyai and then looked down politely.
"Sir kyai, please marry me to Naysila!" zulfikar said with confidence.
Oh my God, I hope this is the best decision.
Mr. Kyai nodded, then led Zulfikar closer to his future wife.
Nurul's eyes rounded, her tears dripping again. Do not believe, if the man in front of him will marry a woman who is his old friend.
***
The legal requirements of a marriage are sufficient for both to carry out the marriage contract.
The bridegroom-to-be.
Bridegroom
Marriage guardians
Headman
Witnesses
Everything was already present in a place that smelled as fragrant as typical with those medicines.
"What will you make your dowry?" ask Mr. Kyai to Zulfikar.
Zulfikar remembered something, he had something that could be made his dowry. Something he always carries with him wherever his feet go.
Zulfikar closed his eyes, steadily he uttered an already Koran, "Ar-rahman,"
Mr. Kyai nodded in agreement.
"But it's too long" Naysila protested. He stared resentfully at Zulfikar, "can't it be with money alone? you want to see my mom dying waiting that long?" pissed Naysila.
"I brought nothing, that's all I have right now" Zulfikar replied as he looked at Naysila.
"It's okay," Hamidah's voice rang out his second gaze, "Mother likes Ar-rahman's letter .. That's a letter you often read while accompanying Mother to sleep." hamidah's answer made Naysila resigned because Hamidah held his hand with a smile.
Zulfikar began chanting the surah of Ar-rahman, all silent and stunned with his voice. The atmosphere that was originally tense, now changed instantly to full of haru and solemnity, because Zulfikar did have a voice that had no doubt of his independence.
Now come to the core procession.
"I accept, the marriage and marriage of Naysila Putri, bint Lukman Permana with the Mahar was paid in cash" said Zulfikar.
"How's witness?" ask Mr. Kyai.
"Well." Right." Mr. RT and Mr. RW nodded in unison.
"Alhamdulillah," answered simultaneously then in proceeding with the do'a of Pak Kyai. All raised their hands full of service.
God, he has now become my best friend's husband.
Nurul's tears trickled after seeing with her own eyes, the man she hoped would be her life companion later now tied the sacred promise to another woman. Although not on the basis of love the same love, still Nurul's heart hurt, very painful.
While Nurul with his feelings of disappointment, Inner Naysila also continued to churn with his fear. Is this decision right? did he take the wrong step?
Naysila turned to look at her smiling mother looking at her, a very warm and soothing smile that she had always longed for.
"Thank you, son." Hamidah smiled with happiness.
But the smile on Hamidah's lips slowly faded, along with his slowly closing eyes.
Everyone focused on praying except Naysila. The feeling was not good, why did not his mother open her eyes again, until the sound of hemodynamics answered his question. The device made a noise that made all eyes fixed on Hamidah.
tiiiiiiit
"MOM ...." Naysila screaming.
The doctor who was beside Hamidah immediately took over the patient by ordering the nurse to prepare a heart stun device. All are asked to come out, but Naysila still insists on not going out.
"I don't want to go out! You can't go ... Nay has fulfilled my wish, now Nay wants me to follow my request. I didn't ask for anything. I just want Nay's mom to be happy with Nay." Naysila kept trying to get away from Aisyah who was trying to pull her away.
"Help Kaka Zul!" aisyah Pinta. Then awkwardly, Zulfikar held Naysila's hand. This was the first time Zulfikar had touched a woman's hand. It was hard for him, let alone that he did that in the presence of the woman he loved.
Everyone was panicking outside the door waiting for the doctor to come out.
Finally the one waiting came. The doctor came out with a nurse behind him. But his face was gloomy and uninspired.
"How's it going, my mom doc?" ask Naysila to panic.
"Excuse us! .. we have tried our hardest...."
"Tidaaakk! I can't go." The doctor had not yet finished the speech, Naysila first barged in through the nurse who was still standing at the door.
Aisha soon pursued Naysila, followed by Zulfikar and the others.
"MOTHER! ... Evil mother! Why did you leave me? wake up Mom, wake up!" Naysila continued to pull on Hamidah's already cold arm, "see Nay is married Ma'am, look!" Naysila took Zulfikar's hand for granted, "this is the man you want, right? look at this Mom! he married me" Naysila shook Zulfikar's hand over his mother's face, who could not even open her eyes.
Aisyah cried while hugging the man who could only shed tears on the wheelchair.
"Innalillahi wainnailaihi roji'un" said Aisyah sobbing while hugging Lukman.
Lukman's chest feels very tight. His most beloved wife is no longer in the world. She was eager to hug and kiss for the last time. But what power, to raise his hand alone he could not, heavy, everything was heavy, he could only scream calling his wife's name in his heart
"I'm sorry Hamidah." Lukman said in his heart, "good my wife's way."
"Bu .. wake up Mom! Nay can't live without Mom." Naysila continued to shake her mother's cold body, Zulfikar unwittingly embracing the body of the woman next to him who was now his wife.
"Here you go, let me know!" Zulfikar rubbed Naysila's hair. And for some reason, Naysila suddenly collapsed and hugged Zulfikar back. It felt comfortable to be in the man's arms, until he did not realize if he was insan in Zulfikar's arms for crying too long.
"Astagfirullah al'adzim." Zulfikar held Naysila's body which almost collapsed onto the floor. He quickly embraced his wife's body and lifted her bridal.
"Bring here, Zul!" Aisyah guides Zulfikar to put Naysila's body on the sofa in the room.
Seeing the events before her eyes, Nurul could not hide the pain in her heart. It was like being stabbed by thousands of needles. Seeing Naysila being treated like that by the man she loved, Nurul felt very hurt.
"Nurul, where are you going?" Mr. Kyai saw Nurul suddenly leave the room with watery eyes.
There's no best choice. Nurul opted out of the room with tears that were relentlessly dripping. Running and several times hitting people who are passing by.
"Why do I hurt watching you hug Zul?" lirih Nurul while continuing to walk half-run leaving the hospital.
