The funeral procession went very well. One by one the people left the cemetery. Including Jaya, Jumiasih, Zen, Amira, and Qia who came home first.
Since this morning, the sky has been so sad. Rain drops one by one. At the sprawling burial site, the new one contains five tombs.
Joseph again invited Nissa, Adam, Luna to recite a prayer before they finally returned home. After the prayer, Adam and Luna went home.
Joseph was still glued to see the mound of land that still looked wet. Unbelievable, he drove his parents home.
Joseph looked at five mounds of earth there at the very end was the tomb of Ningsih Arumi, the mother who had given birth to him into this world, who had passed away when he was five years old. Then beside him, there is the tomb of his father, Iman Dzuhairi Sucipto. And now right next to him is the tomb of Wati Diningrum. The woman who raised him gave him all the affection he had. Wati loved him more than Adam. Luckily Adam did not mind Wati's affection which might be one-sided. Then just below the tomb of his biological mother and father, there is the tomb of his first wife. The woman who had given birth to Reina, Erlin Naura Hidayat. And the little tomb, her son-in-law with Nissa who had died.
Again, Joseph took a deep breath. Drifting with his own mind.
"Came on..."
Nissa's call broke Joseph's daydream. Moreover, Nissa's hand rub that touched Joseph's arm.
"Let's go home. It's gonna rain."
Reina had already begun to accept, had already begun to understand with the circumstances that were so shocking to her. At the hospital, Reina, Hendri, Pak Makruf, and Bu Rumi watched the live broadcast of the funeral procession from beginning to end.
"Wes nduk's. Genuinely." Rumi rubbed Reina's back.
"Rere will learn sincerely Ma'am."
"Saiki zinc is important iku dungane cah ayu." Pak Makruf rubbed the top of Reina's head.
"Yes sir."
"It's time to eat. You promised to eat after the funeral."
"Yes, um."
After everyone who attended the tahlilan event has gone home all. Nissa immediately accompanied Zen and Qia to go to sleep. The little boy did indeed want to sleep together in Qia's room.
After the two children fell asleep, Nissa immediately headed to her room with her husband.
Nissa looked at Joseph's back. Her husband was standing on the edge of the balcony railing. All day, they did not talk much because they were too busy with people who had to come to the house to defend their condolences.
Nissa herself clearly knew that since the hospital this morning, Yusuf did not say much after declaring that Wati was gone.
Nissa also heard Joseph's voice only when Joseph spoke with some of the people who had come and tried before Wati was buried.
"Ayy outside is cold. Let's go in."
Joseph went straight into the room as Nissa said. The night wind was so cold outside.
"Honest?" nissa asked after the two of them laid their tired bodies on the bed.
"God's Insha."
"There is no prohibition on men crying if they want to cry ayy. Do not be alone. Here's the hug."
Joseph rushed straight into Nissa's arms. He cried softly to relieve his own feelings.
"Required?" Nissa asked as she wiped the tears that soaked her husband's beautiful face.
Joseph chuckled softly. "Isn't this funny, baby. I'm old still crying like a kid?"
"There is no rule as to who can cry and who cannot. Everyone has the right to open their hearts. Not to torture yourself."
Seriate...
