My Little Wife Fatimah's
37. Bereft

That morning Sarah was having breakfast with Rico at her new home. "I'm sorry Sar, maybe this house is not as grand as your house," Rico said. "Don't talk like that Rico, this house is very comfortable for me" said Sarah, who smiled.

"Oh yes, the call can be changed times yes, when he only calls names, call affection just to be familiar," Rico proposed to Sarah.

Sarah even smiled shyly, "Oh yes, since when you like me, I really do not know if the woman you want to apply is me," asked Sarah to look at Rico

"Since the first time we met," Rico replied briefly.

"Well! that fast?" Sarah was shocked

"Yes, it didn't take me long to realize that you deserve to be made a wife" Rico continued. Sarah smiled more and more shy.Sarah suddenly got a chat from Rahman, "Fatimah went, I don't know where she went,"

Seeing the chat, Sarah immediately panicked and hurriedly called Rahman to confirm the info.namum Rahman did not have time to lift it because he was still busy looking for Fatimah.

That morning Rahman asked the neighbors and the people around the house were hoping that someone would see Fatimah. But only in vain, because it is impossible for anyone to see because Fatimah went away while everyone was still sleeping.

Fatimah wept on the bus imagining how hurt Rahman was when she found out he was leaving, Lilis comforted her best friend. At this time Fatimah and Sarah took a bus to the city where Bude Lilis lived, where nearby there was the best hospital for Fatimah to cure her illness.

Fatimah's tears trickled down, she accidentally recalled nine years ago,

Fatimah, who was a child, was walking home from school. Rahman was always by his side. Fatimah saw there was a balloon seller in front, "Sister.the balloon is beautiful yes," said Fatimah while staring at the balloon.

At that time Rahman wanted to buy the balloon but he did not bring any money. Rahman tried to talk to the balloon seller, "Pak may not I buy one balloon, but I pay tomorrow, tomorrow I still pass here anyway" Rahman told the balloon seller. "No deck, tomorrow I don't go through here anymore, if you really want this balloon, what if you help me sell the balloon, if you manage to sell 10 balloons, if you manage to sell 10 balloons, later I will give you one free balloon," said the balloon seller.for the sake of his sister, Rahman immediately walked around offering balloons to everyone he met, up to ten balloons in his hands sold. Rahman also got a balloon from the balloon seller.

Rahman hurriedly gave the pink balloon to Fatimah who was sitting by herself on the side of the road waiting for Rahman.

"It's a balloon for you Fatimah" Rahman said, giving a balloon. "Thank you, brother, I love it" said Fatimah who was very happy because she had a sister who always knew what she wanted.

Fatimah wept even more considering the times of her togetherness with Rahman, because if remembered, it was too beautiful to forget.

"I know you must have chosen the toughest decision for the sake of everyone you care about, but you never give up on your illness huh, I'll always be there for you," lilis calmed Fatimah.

Until the news arrived to the father and mother, the mother cried all day thinking about her daughter who left, but the father still tried hard, but the father still tried hard, because according to the father it is only natural that Fatimah went to find her biological brother who was separated from her since she was a baby. That was only Fatimah's reason for leaving.

Rahman knelt before my mother, "I'm sorry Bun, I was too stupid, so I lost Fatimah, I have to do with mother, I can't do without Fatimah," rahman cried in front of his father and mother.

"Already Rahman, calm yourself, we look for Fatimah together, after all he just went to find his biological family, let it go first, then surely he will come back," said Father comforted Rahman.

"It's my fault to tell him about his family, I'm sorry, Fatimah shouldn't have to know that" said Mother who regretted her actions.

"Mother, I promise to look for Fatimah until I find her" said Rahman, who left her parents in the house.

Mother can only cry regretting her mistake.

Sarah who knew it immediately met Father and his mother accompanied by Rico. "Dad, mother, is Fatimah really missing?" ask Sarah seriously.

"Yes Sarah, Fatimah is not missing, but she went to find her brother" replied Father. Father did not know that Fatimah indeed told Rahman to release the marriage bond.

"Astaghfirullah's.. Fatimah," said Sarah who was shocked, Sarah immediately panicked to hear that, he quickly contacted people close to Fatimah.

Sarah tries to call Lilis, but Lilis's number is off, and it was Lilis's intentional intention that no one could contact her.

Rico is very concerned about the condition of his wife's family, "You are calm, baby, I will help you find Fatimah" Rico said, stroking Sarah's head.

"Where are you looking, the world is too big for us to surround," complained Sarah who continued to cry in despair.

"We're just trying to meet a friend of his high school friend" suggested Rico. Sarah just nodded her head in agreement.

Rahman met Fatih at his house. "Assalamualaikum" said Rahman, knocking on Fatih's door.

"Waalaikumussalam," replied Fatih opening the door, he happened to have not yet left for college.

Rahman stared intently at Fatih, "Where is Fatimah?" ask Rahman.

"That's your wife, why ask me?" Cetus Fatih was shocked by Rahman's question.

"Don't pretend, I know that you're with Fatimah, where did you hide my wife?" tanya Rahman glared at Fatih.

"for God's sake, I am not with Fatimah, and I have never been in contact with Fatimah" said Fatih, who defended himself, because he knew nothing.

Rahman just fell silent no longer knowing where to find Fatimah. "What happened to Fatimah?" ask Fatih curiously.

Rahman did not answer that he immediately left Fatih's house.

Fatimah stared at the glass window of the bus, looking at the beautiful scenery along the way, "I'm sorry, surely you will be worried about my departure, but I only went to treat my pain, if I'm going to recover, I'm going to come back, but if my age doesn't allow me to come back, then I hope you're sincere, so that I can go quietly," inner Fatimah who remembers the malignant disease that infested her body.
