Although Not Perfect
Second chance
O Allah, I surrender to the destiny You have set, but please give peace of mind to the man. Has not all that he has done been according to Your teaching, O God...
Give Reza happiness with or without me....
...----------------...
Mas Reza stretched out his hand again and gently stroked my stomach.
"Honey please persuade your mother to get up and healthy again so that father can take care of you. Sorry if all this time I do not believe in your presence, I will fix it, please give me another chance yes, keep growing healthy so that we can meet a few more months." his smile curved even with the look of my face.
Hhh...before I have heard Reza express so many requests like this. Everything that happens must have a silver lining. I'm glad to hear it, at least now I can understand it better...
Every day Reza accompanied me alternately with Nina's mother and mother. In addition to inviting me to talk at length, he also took the time to read the Holy Quran which really makes my heart feel comfortable...
Sometimes Tasya also took care of me and told me about anything like when we met and chatted together. My beautiful friend and sister-in-law even promised to buy a dish that made me very curious...
" Hey my sister-in-law who likes to lie down.you must like, there are new dishes that will make you more curious, later we fly to India and sample all the street food you used to talk about when you saw Yo*Tube.." said Tasya to take me to see her phone.
Indeed, I used to often comment on street food in India that seemed good even though it was cooked carelessly...
"Hmm.. if I could taste it.." That's what I always say when I see the street food cooking shows in India.
"Ihh.. slovenly food that originally put it must make your stomach mules Mel.later if I can find my own money I will not take you to India, I will not take you to India, mending to Italy a lot of good food there." said Tasya when he saw the show I showed him at that time.
" Father of pizza...!!" I thinned my lips on the coquettish chick who was craggy with pizza, pasta, cheese and his friends ..
In the morning at night I could not count the time that had gone by, for all I saw was a white room with bright lights. But every day there is a greeting mas Reza that makes me understand what day it is...
"Happy Thursday Amel..still lashing out, until when did you let me go like this, hhmm? Though I already miss cooking for you.." he said as he kissed my forehead.
Another day
"Happy Monday my wife.wake up dong, you haven't been to the cafe for a long time, sacked chef Richard lo.." a smile mixed with sadness still looms over his face.
Another day
“Happy Saturday Mother of children.., this weekend there is a good movie, sure do not want to watch or you want to go anywhere, I will definitely accompany..." sometimes that guy kisses my stomach too.
Although not every time Reza was with me, but every day he visited just greeting me. I know there are other responsibilities that he carries, hundreds of employees rely on him.
At first every night he accompanied me, but one day his physical fatigue caused him to have to face an infusion hose. After that Nina's mother forced her not to spend the night in the hospital every day.
The other day chef Richard also visited me.
"Hi Amel. Build up there are still many recipes that you have to learn, I miss the commotion that you do in my kitchen.." said chef Richard my idol.
Glad to hear it, at least I'm a student who can make it memorable, maybe because the recipes he teaches I often improvise and it always irritates him he.he..
Chef Richard and his family were friendly and considerate, I felt like I had a new family from across the country. If I still had a chance to move on, I would definitely visit the land of kangaroos...
I don't know how long I can just sit on my closed side. Until one day, my eyes are usually always open, see everything around me, but why this time I started to feel sleepy, my eyes began to heavy and I finally began to fall asleep.
As I began to open my eyes slowly, I saw the ceiling with a dazzling light that made me have to blink repeatedly to adjust.
I can feel my lips and throat feeling very dry. I also felt very weak, even raising one hand had no energy.
While moving my head to the left side, I saw Reza sleeping on the sofa in the room, eager to call out to him but I was unable to make the slightest sound.
My breath was still heavy and the pain in my chest was excruciating. I have felt my body back, Thank God I still give a second chance to make amends in my previous life. I need to be able to improve myself better than before, not feeling my tears melt....
As if feeling myself opening my eyes, I saw Reza slowly waking up and being stunned from her sleep and immediately approaching me with a look of disbelief...
"A..Amel.."our eyes meet.
There was only a little smile I could give him, because I felt so weak and powerless.
"You're up... Thank God."he took my hand to hold it, and one hand wiped my tears.
"It hurts.wait, I'll call the doctor first." he said with a panicked face because he saw me crying, then he quickly looked for the doctor.
Mas Reza rushed out of the room and not long after the doctor and a nurse came and checked my condition.
The doctor smiled with relief as if to tell me that I was stable and that I could be transferred to the hospital room tomorrow morning.
The next day, I was in the nursery and that day was clear Reza didn't want to be away from me....
"My dear Amel ...O Allah, Alhamdulillah.." That morning Mama Nina suddenly entered and immediately approached me who was still lying weak in bed.
"Ma.." That's all I can say to Mama Nina.
"Mama's so glad you've realized, son." Mama Nina's warm smile is also always missed...
"Mother.." I circulated the view that maybe mom would come with Mama.
"You looking for your mother? It will definitely come here, he said he was going to come here with your sister.." said Mama Nina.
I also smiled nodding.
"Reza.. let mama take care of Amel, if you want to go to the office..."She looked towards Reza.
"No.., Ma!! I will leave it to Yogi.I still want to here” sahut mas Reza.
Mama understands the desire of Reza, especially Mama saw the worry of Reza who saw me was still weak.
