While Gus Umar and Laila, still especially enjoy breakfast processed by Aida's hands. "You want to add a sis?" Tawar Laila, who is ready to serve her brother.
"Enough dik, brother is full," replied Umar, and then put the last spoonful of rice into his mouth.
Laila continued to eat, which was also almost finished.
Gus Umar who had finished his meal first, then lit a cigarette and sucked deeply, and in an instant, the balcony area had been filled with white smoke billowing.
"Silver,, that stench of asep huh,,,?!" Laila protested bitterly, shortly after Gus Umar's younger brother finished his breakfast.
Gus Umar flinched, not responding to the protest of his brother.
Laila was then busy tidying up the two of their former breakfast, rice and side dishes were still much tidied back in an airtight container and closed it tightly. While the dishes used for breakfast, Laila put in a small bucket that will be washed later.
"Sister, Laila wants to call Aida. Is there anything to say?" Laila asked, after tidying up all her.
Gus Umar scrunched his forehead.
"Yes, sister want to nitip thanks anyway?? Did you make any special food?" Laila plays both her eyebrows up and down.
Gus Umar sighed softly, "thank you," replied Umar briefly and sounded ambiguous.
Replace Laila who frowned, "meaning brother Umar?"
Gus Umar looked at his sister, "please tell him, thank you," explained Umar.
"Well, that's a complete dong," Laila then took her cell phone and dialed Aida's number.
While Gus Umar shook his head, and then continued to smoke his cigarette deeply.
"Hallo, assalamu'alaikum," said Laila's greeting, as soon as the phone call was received by someone across the street.
"Well, what about Ning?" Laila seemed surprised, because it was unusual that Aida's phone was in the hands of others. And anyway, mbak Ning doesn't like using cell phones because he's illiterate.
"Where is mbak?" Ask Laila later.
Aida could hear a voice over there, and a second later Laila's face panicked.
"Continue now where's Aida? Which hospital was taken to?" Pursue Laila on mbak Ning.
Laila seemed dissatisfied with Ning's reply.
Hearing the name of Aida and the hospital, Gus Umar immediately grinded his cigarette which was still quite long into the ashtray, and then looked at the sister intensely to ask for an explanation... and right at the same time, Laila was also staring at him.
"Sir, please send Laila her number to Dibyo?" Laila Pinta.
Laila's face suddenly seemed annoyed to hear the answer from Ms. Ning, "duh, continue now how dong mbak? Cook until it's Dibyo who told you?" Gerrutu Laila's.
"Yes, already mbak... later if you have any news, please mbak Ning immediately contact Laila huh? Assalamu'alaikum," said Laila, before ending her call with a greeting.
Laila put her phone on the table with rough, conical lips signifying that she was really upset.
"Why brother? Why with Aida? Why was he taken to the hospital? Which hospital?" Cecar gus Umar with many questions, which makes Laila more dizzy.
"Sister, uh, if it's one-on-one dong?!" Laila Protests.
"Yes, Aida was taken to the hospital. It's possible to be born, but Ning didn't know which hospital Aida was taking?" Reply Laila still with pursed lips.
"Which accompanies? Miss Dibyo?" Firmly gus Umar, who had heard the talk of his sister.
Laila nodded, "unfortunately, Ning couldn't read, so she couldn't call Dibyo to ask her about Aida," Laila looked increasingly worried.
"Yes, you go to the shop now. Look for the same info of his neighbors," said Gus Umar, who was also worried.
"May dik Aida and her healthy baby survive" murmured Gus Umar, who could still be heard by Laila.
"Aamiin,," Laila assures, and a second later immediately moves on.
"Laila wants to go to the shophouse now brother," and Umar's younger sister soon passes leaving the older brother, who is still sitting tight thinking about Aida.
After Laila died, Gus Umar again lit a cigarette. Suck her deep, to expel the shabbiness that suddenly ambushed her heart.
"Gus, man,,"
"Sign Umi" replied Umar, turning to the source of the voice.
"Abi and his umi ning Zahra want to leave, until he reaches below the gih," said the umi.
"Oh, nggih umi," Umar immediately left the balcony, returning to the care room of the wife.
"Abi, umi, badhe kundur?" Ask Gus Umar as he approached the patient's bed, where kyai Hasanuddin and his wife were there.
"Yes gus, abi there is an event in the district later in the afternoon," Rahma replied giving an excuse.
Gus Umar nodded in understanding, his father-in-law was indeed one of the clerical figures who became the regent's spiritual advisor.
After saying goodbye to his daughter, Kyai Hasanuddin and nyai Rahma then say goodbye to his besan.
"Mister nyai, take my daughter?" Pinta nyai Rahma, hugging nyai Robi'ah.
"Yes jeng, until prayer will continue ning Zahra yes. hopefully soon get healing," said nyai Robi'ah, and then broke his embrace.
Kyai Abdullah and nyai Robi'ah delivered his besan, to the front door of the nursery ning Zahra.
"Ning, I brought the same abi umi down, yes," said Gus Umar, while kissing his wife's forehead. Such was the custom of Umar, even though he only went out for a while. Kyai Abdullah's son always said goodbye to his wife, and kissed his wife's forehead as if to travel far.
Indeed, ning Zahra actually felt very lucky to be married to Gus Umar. How unlucky? Gus Umar is a loving husband, understanding, and patience, has been tested very widely.
Although ning Zahra could not cook, gus Umar never complained and still ate with voraciously every food served despite the taste of ora ngalor ora ngidul? The taste of ning Zahra's cooking, cannot be defined by words.
Gus Umar also never complained, when ning Zahra was always passive and embarrassed half-dead when the husband asked for his rights. Until often, gus Umar must be willing to delay it. for the sake of comfort ning Zahra.
Only, the fate of his real happiness had not sided with ning Zahra. Despite having a perfect husband, but his self can not have offspring.Even exam sick, repeatedly come to greet him.
"If I were as healthy and perfect as any other woman, how lucky would I be?" Ning Zahra's whisper in the heart.
"Ning, how come you're dumb?" Gus Umar frowned, because ning Zahra did not respond to his speech.
"Eh, nggih gus. monggo," Zahra awoke from her daydream, and then smiled, "be careful," she continued.
Gus Umar nodded, and then immediately passed leaving the wife's care room.
"Come bi, tuh gus Umar has come," asked Rahma, when she saw the daughter-in-law walking out of the room.
"Let's go, we'll excuse you. Assalamu'alaikum," said Rahma, and then walked along with her husband and daughter-in-law along the hospital hall.
"Wa'alaikumsalam," replied Abdullah and nyai Robi'ah simultaneously, accompanying the departure of the besan. And the two parents gus Umar then went back into the care room ning Zahra, to accompany his first son-in-law.
While gus Umar, arriving in the parking area.Charismatic young man immediately opened the car door for his in-laws and then greeted the parents of ning Zahra, who was, before he both got into the car driven by the santri kang.
"Abi equals Umi titip Zahra ya gus, sing patient. sing sareh.. God willing, Allah blesses your every deed" whispered Rahma with a glazed net. Umi ning Zahra knew very well, how gus Umar treated his daughter.
"God willing, aamiin, '" replied Umar, nodding obediently.
"Thank you, you've taken care of Zahra very well," continued Rahma, with a stammering voice.
"That's Umar's responsibility, umi ndak not need to thank you," replied Umar.
While Kyai Hasanuddin could not say anything, he just patted the back of the crow and stared at it so deeply. As if to say a million words of thanks, because gus Umar remained faithful to accompany his daughter even though clearly ning Zahra could not give gus Umar offspring.
"Assalamu'alaikum gus," said salam kyai Hasanuddin say goodbye, after a long time staring at the son-in-law. Kyai Hasanuddin immediately closed the car door, before the clear crystal that burst from his corner glided freely down his face that had begun to wrinkle.
"Abi willingly, if you want to remarry gus," whispered Kyai Hasanuddin inwardly. As a parent, obviously Kyai Hasanuddin knows for sure what someone wants from a marriage.
Gus Umar stared at the departure of the car that brought both parents ning Zahra, with an uncertain feeling. Long enough, Umar was silent in his place, until the voice of someone who called his name surprised the son of kyai Abdullah.
"Gus, leres gus Umar? Alhamdulillah, meet genengan here gus," said the middle-aged woman who walked in a hurry to the gus Umar, with sparkling eyes.
