Chapter 29
"Frankly, Ra. I think that we have re-established a relationship like before. I love and care for you, but it seems that my current confession doesn't mean anything to you. You must be angry and disappointed. I'm sorry, Ra."
I didn't respond to his words, he sighed as if disappointed. Then he stood up and unexpectedly he stroked my hair. Of course I immediately brushed off his hand, he smiled.
"I say goodbye, yes. Say hello to your Papa, Assalamualaikum."
"Waalaikumsalam," I answered simply. Umami went home, I sighed disappointed. Somehow in the end, only time will tell.
----------
For some time, Umami no longer tried to contact me. Maybe he was tired of my indifferent attitude and didn't care about him.
Or maybe he and Angel had a relationship so Umami forgot about me.
A week after the incident, I was only able to meet Kak Winda. I have to sort my heart out before I meet him.
I don't want Sis Winda to know about my problem with Umami. Let this be my own secret.
Sis Winda again invited me to meet at the cafe in front of the hospital. Actually I was wondering why it had to be there.
Why did Sis Winda have to go back to the hospital? Wasn't it just last week that he checked. Do pregnant women really have to go to the doctor often, like Sis Winda?
I arrived first at the cafe slapping our appointment. Looks like he's still in the hospital, I was waiting for him while surfing in cyberspace.
"Clara, sorry, yes, I'm late," said Sis Winda.
He had just arrived from the hospital, so I told him to sit down. I noticed that Sis Winda's face was very pale. His body is also slightly thinner than the last time we met.
Shouldn't pregnant people get fatter?
"What's wrong with Sis Winda, why did you check again? Didn't you just go to the doctor last week?" I asked straight away.
Sis Winda seemed to take a breath before answering my question.
"It's okay, Derek. If someone is pregnant, yes, like this. You have to check often, so you know where the condition of the child in my stomach is."
It makes sense, too. I just believe the reason, because I also don't understand how a pregnant mother is.
"Thank God you're okay. Oh, what's really going on that made you want to see me?" I asked.
"Brother wants to ask you for help, Dek," he answered.
"Ask for what, sis?"
"If you can, come back again with Mas Azzam. He loves you very much, Dek."
"What do you mean Brother? I remarried Mas Azzam, I see?" I asked in disbelief.
I can't stop thinking about Sis Winda's thoughts. Why did he insist on wanting me to return to Mas Azzam? Didn't he love her so much, then why did he turn out like that now.
"Yes, Deck. Brother, I want Mas Azzam to take care of him later. It's a pity if he has to live alone, Deck."
I increasingly do not understand the words of Sis Winda. What do you mean try? Does she want to separate after giving birth? If that's true, why should he bother thinking about Mas Azzam's fate later?
"Mas Azzam is a man, he can look for someone else if you separate from him," I said annoyed.
Although at first I didn't like Sis Winda, but I felt sorry because it seemed like Sis Winda was Mas Azzam's love slave.
"You know you're going to say something like that, Derek. How else can I say it. I'm seriously ill, Derek. Brain cancer, actually I've had it for a long time, but I'm just a prisoner. When he dies, I want you to remarry. That's all I want. So that my son will take care of him later."
"Sis Winda has brain cancer? Oh God, why did this happen, Sis? If you already know that your life is in danger, why are you forced to continue your pregnancy?" I asked again annoyed.
I was surprised by the thought of my ex-honey, I became dizzy.
"You don't have the heart to kill your own child, Derek. Let it be like this, if it's a short life, it's okay. Brother is willing, but you take care of Brother's child, okay!" he asked with teary eyes.
"Ihh, I don't know, Sis. I don't want to go back with Mas Azzam. I don't like him anymore," I politely refused.
Sis Winda looks disappointed, but I will not be affected. After all, the lifespan of humans who knows. All of that, right, it's still a doctor's estimate.
I also don't want my fate to be toyed with by circumstances.
What if after me and Mas Azzam remarried, it turns out that Sis Winda's age is still long. Auto is back to how it used to be in my life, hanging with no clear future.
"I'm sorry, Sis. I can't fulfill your wish. Hm, it's noon, I'll say goodbye, Sis. Greetings to Mas Azzam's mother," I finally decided.
After making small talk for a while, I went home by taking an online taxi. Sis Winda is still waiting for the lab results, he said.
I pray that Sis Winda is always healthy and has a long life. Pity his son later if anything happened to him.
-----
In the taxi, I opened the online newspaper application on my cell phone. Then my eyes fell on a movie commercial that was showing in theaters.
Looks interesting, I just watch it, ah. I asked the driver to take me to the cinema instead. So I don't have to go back home just yet.
Arriving at the mall where the cinema is located, I went down after paying the fare. Immediately I headed to the fourth floor where the cinema is located.
Apparently quite a lot of people who want to watch the film. After waiting in line for a long time, I managed to buy a ticket for myself.
While waiting for the cinema to open, I bought some snacks to accompany me inside later. At this point, I feel free to be myself. I don't let the problems and sadness that I'm going through interfere with my enjoyment right now.
I must be happy!
