Turning Hell into Heaven

32. Polygamy (again)

"Aamiin" echoed simultaneously from the people who were inside the room of Herlambang company hall.

The meaningful closing word is the hope of every person present at the Thanksgiving event, so that the business path that Dara has just developed from her company can achieve success as expected.

A few months after the divorce between Dara and Lukman has passed.

It is not easy, but it does not become a barrier for Dara as a single parent to rebuild her career without leaving obligations to her two daughters.

As the President Commissioner, assisted by its Director, Pak Nugroho, Dara has now successfully developed the wings of his company into the food industry.

"Next time the host should not come late again yes,"

Pak Nugroho's voice made Dara who was watching his invited guests enjoying a buffet dish jerked, as well as embarrassed by the reprimand conveyed by the Director.

Dara as the star in the inauguration of his new business, came late from the schedule that has been determined. Honestly Pak Nugroho was able to bring the course of the event right on the corridor while keeping the company owner who did not see the trunk of his nose among the guests who were getting tired of waiting.

"Yes Uncle. Sorry yeah. And thank you Uncle for handling this event perfectly" Dara nodded respectfully with Mr. Nugroho.

"On the event, it has become the responsibility of Uncle as Director. But as a company owner, especially when developing a new business, you must show responsibility and maintain your dignity. You were also late for a meeting. In the future, never be late again!" continued Pak Nugroho who was continued by Dara with a nod.

"What delay this time because it still has to do with the legal process Lukman and his wife?" ask Mr. Nugroho.

"Yes Uncle, I had to return to make a statement with the police related to the case of embezzlement of company funds that Mas Lukman did when he was Director here, and tomorrow back to the police station for another case related to Kiki, Mas Lukman's wife" explained Dara.

"Son, what Lukman and his wife have done to you is wrong and appropriate in the law ..."

Mr. Nugroho sighed then looked at Dara closely, then resumed his sentence, saying,

"But, is this how it should be? remember what Uncle said about revenge? and look at you now. Uncle is not sure if three hours a day a night you can use for a break so dense busy that you scheduled as a form of retaliation."

Dara returned Pak Nugroho's gaze for a moment,

'True Uncle, my time is almost drained for activities other than for myself' said Dara inwardly agreed to Pak Nugroho's assumption.

"Son, it's not that you're great that you're capable of playing a plural role, being a good mother as well as a visionary President Commissioner in the midst of the busy legal process that you allocate for your ex-husband and ex-honey. But what makes you able to reduce your sleep ration is, sincerely and thankfully you are still pushing Nak," continued Mr. Nugroho.

Dara searched every temple said Mr. Lukman. His mind wandered and came to the conclusion that He mentioned again to his mind, "True too".

Mr. Nugroho got up from his seat, it was time he mingled and greeted the children from the orphanage that Dara invited to the ceremony.

Before leaving the Chairman of his company that he had considered as his own subsidiary, Pak Nugroho again left the advice to Dara.

"Son. Rest assured, there is no best recompense for a sinner except from the owner of the universe. Stop drinking sea water. Enjoy every element of life with an airy soul, may your peace and blessings be gained."

Mr. Nugroho then went from before Dara who was digesting every statement.

...***...

"Become, this is important!"

Lusi's voice made Dara quickly look at the friend. The phone that Lusi offered made Dara realize the intention of Lusi with important words there is an explanation on the sophisticated screen.

Dara reached the phone in the hands of Lusi and moved it to her ear covered with a gold rectangular model hijab.

"Yes?" dara said to anyone at the end of the call.

Deg.

Dara knew that voice. The panicked voice that was crying belonged to Melsya, Lukman's youngest sister.

"Melsya, relax. Tell me what's up and what can I help you with?" ask Dara.

"Kak Sukma Kak's. He lost a lot of blood and the doctor said he needed an immediate blood donation for his life's safety hikss .."

"Where are you now?"

"Sentosa Hospital Kak. Help us, brother, please save the life of Sukma hikss .. hikss .."

"Calm down. And wait there. I'll see you soon"

Tuuttts.

Dara turned off the phone call. He handed back Lusi's cell phone.

"Come with me Si!" dara's invitation and order was directly asserted by Lusi.

...***...

"At this time the patient's condition has stabilized. And we'll continue to monitor patients"

The statement of a female doctor made Ummi Rita begin to breathe with relief.

"Well Doc, thank you Doctor" said Ummi Rita.

The doctor left the all-white room which was the patient's treatment room. Ummi Rita approached Dara who was sitting on the sofa in the room.

Ummi Rita patted the back of Dara's hand and then clasped the entire palm of her hand.

"Thank you Son. Thanks though. Without you we may never again meet Sukma" Umm Rita said sincerely with tears streaming down her cheeks.

Dara nodded. He who was sitting next to Lusi looked at Melsya.

"So Melsya, what really happened?"

Melsya looked at his Ummi, asking for approval of the family disgrace that he would convey to the savior of his brother's life. Ummi Rita nodded, the code was encouraging.

"Sak Sukma made a suicide attempt by slashing his wrist. That's why he lost a lot of blood. While the blood stock in the RS is empty, Mas Lukman had also tried to find other RS but nil, the blood stock in some RS is also empty. Then I remembered that Kak Sukma and Kak Dara had the same blood type. Therefore I shamelessly ask for help from Brother. Forgive me for not knowing myself, brother, and thank you very much for the help that Kak Dara gave." Melsya.

"Killed yourself?" Lusi shouted so stifled.

Melsya nodded. Then suddenly tears came back from Melsya. Melsya who focused her gaze on Sukma who was lying in a sick bed spontaneously cried considering the tragic life that her Big Sister had experienced.

"Sukma is polygamous by her husband. It made him unable to bear and eventually desperate to end his own life, hikss .." Ummi Rita answered Lusi's curiosity.

"Po .. polygamy?" the tongue of Dara is faint, unable to lift the voice any more.
