New Breath
Chapter 54's

Since Papa knew everything he had hidden. Many fears began to appear in Farhan. This makes the man who is now in a thick blanket increasingly uncomfortable. If previously he was only afraid just in case his family knew about his condition. Then, after Papa found out, Farhan was afraid that the man would also raise his voice in front of others. Then, disturbing the mental condition of his family again. Especially Mama. It's only been a while since Mama's been relieved that Reyhan's back. Farhan was afraid of making grief for the woman again. Farhan also thought about Reyhan's condition. Her brother would be jolted later if news of her condition reached Reyhan's ears. If that happens, hope Farhan does not affect also Reyhan's health condition is still in the process of recovery.

Farhan turned his body and slept sideways. Actually, he wasn't sleepy at all. It's just that, he is lazy to work to complete office work that increasingly takes up time. He just wants to rest his body first. It was not a plan, but meeting Papa after work this afternoon and talking about something he had kept secret all this time made Farhan lazy. Intention of the heart to rest the body so that the mind also rest. It's not that easy either. The more he has no activity. The more his mind is full of thoughts that should not exist.

Shouldn't Farhan have prepared himself to arrive at this point? The point where everything that is a secret will be revealed and become the consumption of his entire house. However, Farhan did not seem to be ready for that possibility. Keeping secret is the best option. Then, leaving abruptly was one consequence that clearly shocked everyone. Except, Nadhira and her lover—Finza. And it might be better, because no pain was created before that. There will only be loss after his departure. Holy hooch! Farhan did not want to see any more sadness on his family's face. Enough of the past sadness felt.

I can't sleep either. Farhan rose from his bed. Her chest somehow also this time felt a little tight. So, he chose to sit leaning back in the hope that his breathing groove could run normally. He stared at the wall in front of him while stroking his chest. But what happened? That tightness did not subside. However, his vision seemed blurred and shaded. Farhan closed his eyes tightly while massaging his temple. Then, it reopened its eyelids and everything returned to normal.

It was only a split second before such a great sense of dizziness whack. Farhan grimaced restrained. Lately he felt the intensity of pain in his head more often felt and the pain many times. Does that mean the disease is getting worse? Yes, Farhan should have seen Doctor Aghni five days ago. However, to this day he has not come to visit the woman in the hospital. It's free for Farhan. After all, until now he has not been cured, even though he has been running the advice of Doctor Aghni.

“Ma, very sick,” Og Farhan. He grabbed her hair firmly hoping that the pain would subside. Honey, it doesn't affect anything.

Farhan's grief didn't reach this point. Fresh blood flowed from the man's nose. Next to the hand was busy grabbing her hair, while the other hand was trying to wipe the liquid smelling rancid. Ah, this is painful for a Farhan. Especially now that no human can ask for help in this room. However, it seemed like luck was on his side. He heard the door of his room open.

“Farhan!”

¶¶¶

Papa still hasn't returned to the room and Mama is alone in the room. He could not close his eyes easily. Not as usual of course. Mom's fidgeting. Mama scared. However, he did not know exactly what caused it. Or maybe because of a change in attitude this afternoon that seemed more silent? So, what happened to the husband? Is there a problem that the man is actually facing?

Mom decided to get out of bed to see Papa. If it's true, Papa is facing a problem. He would be someone who could calm the man down. So, Mama chose to meet Papa in the workspace and undo her intention to sleep first.

When Mom just came out of the room and stood in front of the door. Inadvertently a pair of eyeballs hers fell on the door of the room whose lights were still on. He was silent for a moment. Then, I don't know which push made Mama actually take her foot step towards the room. His goal was to meet Papa just outside and he forgot.

Mama's lightning-fast hand grabbed the tissue on the table beside Farhan's bed. He tried to wipe the fresh blood. But instead of stopping outside. Precisely more and more dripping and make some of the t-shirts worn Farhan changed color. The actual color is terrible in your eyes. Yeah, Mama's not the one who's so bold to see that deep red liquid. However, he shook off his fear because his son certainly needed him the most at this time.

Farhan touched his mother's hand. She knew she was afraid of blood. However, he felt his hand being pushed aside by Mama. “Ma, please, don't force yourself,” said Farhan amid the pain he was suffering.

“Mama is okay,” Mama replied in earnest.

Farhan had not yet returned his mother's words. He had already been defeated by such intense and excruciating pain. His body just collapsed and hit the body of Mama who tried to support him. Farhan did not immediately lose consciousness. He still heard the screams of Mama who continued to shout her name accompanied by sobs that were very heartbreaking. Issues that made Farhan's pain grow. Not only physical pain, but also mental. This is what he feared. The broken cry of a woman who gave birth and raised him.

“Farhan, you still hear Mama ‘kan, Nak?” ask Mama with all the panic that drowned her.

Farhan could only nod his head weakly. He can't make a sound. The pain seemed to take away everything. He touched Mama's hand. Then, he held it very tightly. “Sa-kit, Ma,” groaned for the last time before the grasp loosened again, the eyelids slowly clenched tightly, and the darkness took Farhan's life.

What Mama witnessed with her own eyes tonight was the great sorrow that returned. In front of him the son lost consciousness. I don't know what happened to this son. Mama crying sniffles. He screamed loudly for help.

“Papa, please!”

The voice was timidly deporting deserted the night. The sound of crying cut through the heart. You can only hug the body that has lost consciousness tightly. It doesn't matter if the liquid thing he's afraid of changes the color of his pajamas. “Nak, wake up, Honey. Let's tell Mama what you feel,” said Mama quietly trying to wake the son.

“Farhan wake up!”
