An ambulance carrying the bodies of Likha's parents has arrived at the village where Likha lives. Daffa and Rina were also waiting in front of Likha's house, they were asked by Mrs. Agus to help her clean up Likha's house before the body arrived. Pak Agus got off first, then helped Likha out of the ambulance. Likha immediately got a hug from Daffa and Rina. He sobbed when he saw his two friends. Meanwhile, Mr. Agus and residents helped officers from the hospital to unload the two bodies in the ambulance.
"Dear Likha, you have to be strong. They are happy now, so you have to be enthusiastic about living this life. You have to make your parents proud." Rina encouraged her best friend. Likha just nodded and hugged Rina tighter. Daffa invited the two of them to come inside. When they arrived at the house, Likha and Rina sat in the corner of the living room. Likha stared at the two bodies which were now lying stiffly in front of her. The faces of the two were no longer visible because they were wrapped in white cloth, they just waited for the tomb to be ready and then buried Likha's parents.
"Rina, they left me alone. They didn't ask me Rina ..." Rina cried hearing her friend's hoarse voice. I don't know where Likha's voice went, it was certain that her voice sounded very low.
"Likha, you want your parents to be happy right?" Daffa asked while stroking his friend's back and Likha of course nodded, how could he not be happy to see his parents happy.
"Then let them go, Likha. Be sure! God will raise your rank if you can pass this test." Rina was very surprised to hear Daffa's words, her lover was very wise.
"Yes, Likha, you must be patient and sincere with the departure of both of them. I'm sure you are very strong, dear. That's why God tested you because He loves your parents." Rina and Daffa were indeed able to make Likha feel strong and not alone. After the grave was ready and everyone had prayed the body, they all brought the bodies of Likha's parents to the cemetery and buried them. The funeral went well, Likha's parents had an accident at half-past three in the afternoon. Then after being cleaned in the hospital and buried, it was finished at ten at night.
"Daffa, Rina, if you are tired you can go home. I'm fine now, besides, there are Pak Agus and other villagers. You also have to keep going on a study tour tomorrow, you can't cancel your trip for me. I will feel sad and angry if you don't leave. Likha, you don't want to trouble other people, so she tried to steel herself.
"Likha, we are leaving tomorrow, but we will stay here tonight. Daffa will sleep in the living room and I will accompany you. Now, let's sleep." Rina brought Likha into her room. The two of them lay down. Actually, Likha was not sleepy, but Rina had to leave early tomorrow so Likha pretended to be asleep so that Rina would also fall asleep immediately. Half an hour later Rina was asleep, Likha then covered Rina and she came out of her room. In the living room, he saw that Daffa had also fallen asleep. Then Likha returned to her room and took the blanket. He covered Daffa, then Likha into the bathroom. He performed ablution and prayed, then prayed for his parents who were now in different realms.
"Oh God, please forgive all my sins. Guide me to your path, O Lord. Also, forgive the sins of my parents who have now gone first to face You. Place both of them between Your lovers. From here, I can only ask prayer for them, give me strength, O Allah. So that I can continue my life without the two of them. May they both have the best place beside You, Aamiin, "Likha wiped her tears, then she took off her Muslim clothing and folded it. Likha looked at the clock it was already four in the morning. He then woke up Rina and Daffa, both of them then said goodbye to Likha because both of them had to get ready for a study tour which was leaving at six this morning.
"Likha, we'll stay first. I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you today, but when I get home tomorrow I'll come right back to you." Rina promised Likha.
"Yes Rina, you take it easy. After complaining all night to God, now my heart feels calmer. Goodbye and have fun." Likha hugged Rina and then escorted Rina and Daffa out of the house. At this time the atmosphere of his house is very quiet because all the neighbors have come home after spending the night with him.
"Likha, you have to be strong. You also have to be enthusiastic." Likha encouraged herself. He then prayed at dawn, then cleaned up everything that was still messy. At eight in the morning, Likha had just finished and she got a surprise. The four friends also Ba'ih, Ida, and Weny arrived at his house with several teachers and boarders of the dormitory.
"Assalamu'alaikum Likha, we are sorry for the passing of your parents, son. You are strong, dear, you must also be sincere." a teacher embraced Likha he tried to give enthusiasm and strength to this student.
"Thank you, ma'am, but where do you know when I'm mourning?" Likha's friends then started to hug Lycha one by one, Iren, Dina, Niken, and Alicia all came. Ida and Weny also Ba'ih expressed their condolences. They also talked a lot with Likha and when they felt that they had been chatting for a long time, everyone said goodbye because Likha also still received many guests who came to say their condolences.
"Likha, we'll go home first. In a week you have to come back and continue your schooling, honey, for the time being, we give permission to you until the seven-day anniversary of your parents' death. After that, you have to go back to school." After instructing the students, they all left Lickha's house and returned to the dormitory. It was true that Likha should have gone to the dormitory today, but an accident came to greet her first. Likha then took a shower and changed clothes. She wore black cotton trousers and a white short-sleeved mickey mouse T-shirt. She had her hair tied in a ponytail, her face was pale and her eyes were swollen. Sadness was still very visible on her tiny face, she was sitting alone because she had just said goodbye.
