Watching You With Do'A

Chapters. 32: I Am Not a Good Friend

On the terrace of Aini's aunt's residence, Gus Umar was still waiting for an explanation from Mr. Karyo impatiently. "What big event, Mr. Karyo, would you please say sir?" Pinta gus Umar, while upholding his body. prepared to hear the explanation from his neighbor Aida.

"Mbak Aini died a week ago," said Mr. Karyo lirih, but to the gus Umar and Laila.

"What sir?!" Laila's screams were in disbelief, while Gus Umar looked limp and leaned his body on the back of the wooden bench he was currently sitting on.

"Inna lillaahi wainna ilaihi raaji'uun, we all belong to Mu ya Robb and will definitely return to You, whenever You want it," lirih gus Umar tried to recite, although withholding tightness in his chest.

Laila immediately cried, "no, that's not right sir? How could? Does Aunt Aini really hurt, sir?" Cecar Laila, while staring at Mr. Karyo with tears that continue to pour.

"Mbak Aini turned out to be sick with a heart, and it's likely a long time ago." replied Pak Karyo by staring pity at Laila who still looks shocked.

"Lantas, what about Aida sir? Is she okay? Can you wake her up, we want to see Aida sir?" Pinta gus Umar with lips that vibrate to hold back the cry, his netra has been dewy..but with all his heart, the handsome young man held back so that his tears did not spill.

Mr. Karyo shook his head, and looked more and more sad. "Son Aida was invited home this afternoon her husband," replied Mr. Karyo.

"Su, husband?!" Gus Umar looked at Mr. Karyo demanding more explanation.

"True gus, we're neighbors here also no one knows.why suddenly son Aida married with his son Retno widower without the child,,,"

"Young?" Cut Laila, while looking at Mr. Karyo who is like the accused. because he was smitten with questions from the son of Kyai Abdullah's daughter.

"Yes ning, Ryan is a widower without children. And we, the people here suspect that Aida's son is married because he paid his mother's debt because Retno is a loan shark..."

"Pay debt?" Again, the explanation of Mr. Karyo on the sidelines and this time by gus Umar.

"This is just a guess of a neighbor here gus, to be more clear. gus Umar and ning Laila can ask directly to mbak Ning, for more details, because he was also present during the marriage contract nak Aida in the hospital," concluded Pak Karyo, ending his explanation.

The middle-aged man then stood up, "sorry, the father was willing to clean the stall because tomorrow mbak Ning want to start selling again." Pamit pak Karyo's.

Gus Umar could only nod, and let Pak Karyo pass leaving himself and Laila still sobbing.

Long enough, Umar let his brother cry, and did not want to disturb him. Because gus Umar himself was busy arranging his heart and feelings. "dik Aida, sorry I," only those words continue to be spoken from his lips, he said, words of deep regret.

After feeling a little calm, gus Umar memapah his sister to go to the car. And the two of them then went home feeling indescribable with words, regret and only regret that they both felt at this moment.

For about fifteen minutes, they drove over the paved highway, none of which let out a sound, and each one dissolved in deep regret.

After turning towards the gate of the pesantren complex, Gus Umar immediately parked his car in the yard. And when the brothers came down and entered the house, both of them were welcomed by kyai Abdullah and his wife in the living room.

"Gus, where are you guys from? Last night he wanted to rest, but instead came out and did not pay attention to abah or umi!" Kyai Abdullah's voice sounded firm and so cold, Kyai Abdullah did not like if his children were not honest let alone out of the house without saying goodbye and as good as his own.

If the usual gus Umar and Laila will immediately be afraid if the brother has spoken like that, the fear was defeated by the feeling of regret that still enveloped his second heart.

The two sons of Kyai Abdullah's daughter fell silent, none of whom was able to open his mouth. Moreover, Laila, the girl was unable to say what she had heard from Mr. Karyo. because of course before speaking, her crying voice that would break first.

While Gus Umar felt unable, knowing the sudden departure of Aunt Aini his heart was very sad. Added to the news that Aida was married, and because for the sake of paying her mother's debt, and it made the heart of Umar more broken.

"Why are you quiet?" Tanya kyai Abdullah put her voice down, when she found her two children still standing and just saw a terrible incident.

And after paying close attention, kyai Abdullah could also see the face of his daughter's mother who was as moist as crying for a long time.

Nyai Robi'ah who can also catch the sadness on the face of her daughter's son immediately approached, and then hugged Laila, "what's the matter? Say, "the word of the Umi is soft in the ears of her daughter, and immediately Laila's cry breaks again.

Gus Umar who heard it, could not linger there. "abah, umi, sorry... Umar wanted to go to the room first," and Umar immediately passed from the living room to his room with tears that began to fall, the young man passed through the living room and did not care about the questioning gaze of his extended family who were still there.

Kyai Abdullah and his wife were confused in this situation, and the two of them could only wait until their daughter calmed down.

Nyai Robi'ah invites Laila to sit down, and lovingly the mother-of-two rubs the back of her youngest daughter,, trying to give Laila peace.

After a long wait, Laila finally stopped crying and began to be able to tell stories even with stammering.

And hearing the story of the princess, nyai Robi'ah was immediately crying. For kyai Abdullah's wife, Aini's aunt was like her sister and Aida like her biological daughter. "O Allah, pity the fate of Aida," she was stammered, with tears flowing.

Kyai Abdullah hugged the wife's shoulder, the charismatic kyai's heart was not only sad as the wife.but his heart was no less broken as the son, "Dahlan, sorry, I am, I can't keep trust from you. I can't take care of your wife and I can't protect your son. I'm not a good friend," he regretted in his heart.
