New Breath

New Breath
Chapter 8's


Nadhira still plays his thumb on the little hand of the child. His smile did not also date seeing a pair of neutrals with petals that had begun to open. It felt so happy that Nadhira saw one of her babies who had been lying helpless like her father for a few days. However, now do’a-do’a that he skipped without a pause was fruitful. Although one more person whose name he always mentioned has not yet given a sign that will soon open his eyes. Thats okay. Perhaps God wanted to give Nadhira another surprise that of course he never expected. The origin of do’a that he announced never broke up. After all, God is fair. God won't make do’a end in vain.


One warm kiss landed on Radit's cheek. Pretty long. It felt like for so long Nadhira did not give her son a kiss. In fact, almost every day when he visited the child, Nadhira never absent gift his son a kiss on the forehead. Maybe this time it felt different because yesterday he just kissed Radit who always closed his eyes. “Health, yuk, Brother! Let's go home quickly. Poor Adek was lonely and fussy because he was left behind by Brother,” said Nadhira with a semi-faced look. He spoke so fluently as if Radit would return his words later. “Oma, Opa, Dad is also waiting for Brother's return. Later I also love a lot of gifts for Brother, yes.”


Nadhira again sat down on the chair beside the bed of the child. He touched the tiny hand again. What managed to make Nadhira's heart warm as well as touched was when Radit's small hand grasped his index finger. Nadhira couldn't help but shed tears. Moreover, the pair of eyeballs that were exactly like Reyhan was fixedly staring at him. Also a big smile of Radit showing his gums. My God, this simple happy Nadhira. He kissed Radit repeatedly. Until without realizing it, his tears fell on the back of his son's hand. “Stay like this, yes, dear. Because, Brother and Adek are Mother's boosters, Mother's encouragement.”


Maybe little Radit knows how the mother feels. The little baby just smiled broadly at Nadhira.


“Rest first, yuk, Brother. Let the condition remain stable.” Nadhira stroked Radit's head. He hummed so that his son would fall asleep faster. Things he often did when going to put Radin to bed at home.


Too engrossed in his activities, Nadhira did not realize two pairs of eyes that were watching him from a distance that was not too far away. The owner of the eye was also happy to see their best friend's smile back beautifully engraved. Although they were worried when they saw Nadhira a little sobbing. However, obviously they do not want to interfere with his best friend's time with the child.


“It's nice to see Nadhira can smile again like now. He is very strong,” Finza said with a vibrating voice. The water from her eyelids forced her to come out because she felt touched to see Nadhira. He can also see how Nadhira struggle so far. Honestly, maybe if Finza is in the position of Nadhira, he will not be as strong as his best friend.


Mikayla who was holding Radit nodded slowly. Like Finza, Mikayla also knows very well how the journey of Nadhira's life since deciding to end his bachelor's life by accepting a male proposal that of course he loved very much. Especially now, since Mikayla married Bara and thus she legitimately became her best friend's sister-in-law. Mikayla certainly knows more than Finza. Because, Bara—sang husband—always tells the problems that Nadhira always experienced. In fact, once he cried when Bara told how Nadhira who almost gave up because of so many trials that hit him. But that's right Finza said. Nadhira is strong. Armed with the spirit he forced. Now Nadhira can get to this point and become a really strong woman. If only Nadhira's tears could dry up, maybe now there are no more tears that can come out of his eyelids because of crying too often.


“She's really strong, Za. I just salute him,” praise Mikayla for the power embedded in her sister-in-law. “Abangnya itself did not expect that Nadhira will be able to get to this point,” continued Mikayla with a proud smile while looking at the human being who is the topic of conversation with Finza.


“Kay, you do not envy that Bang Bara is still the same attention Nadhira?”


Mikayla's head turned. He looked at Finza with sharp nosediving eyebrows. “Why should I be envious? I'm just a friend and sister-in-law very dear to Nadhira. What about Bang Bara as her brother? After all, it is Bang Bara's obligation to always pay attention to his only sister,” explained Mikayla. It's true what he said. At least he never felt jealous of Nadhira. After all, so far Mikayla has never felt a lack of affection from either her husband or her in-laws. They treated Mikayla like a queen.


Finza smiled broadly at the proud reply of her best friend.


“Again speak to me, yes?” nadhira asked who had just come over. The woman rubbed her own shoulders. He was a little tired from the lack of rest from yesterday.


“Capek, yes, Ra? You rest for a while. Mumpung the twins also sleep again,” said Mikayla as she shifted her body to make room for Nadhira to sit next to her.


“But! Who's got a cocky kid, yeah. Want to make envy,” chirped Finza.


Nadhira just laughed a little at the words of his best friend. “Currency, Za. Marriage is a different pleasure. Yes ‘kan, Kay?”


The calm Mikayla just nodded her ass with a wide smile that decorated her face.


“Yes how do dong, Ra. Your sister-in-law hasn't even booked me until now,” replied Finza a little annoyed.


“By the way, which Farhan? You came here with Farhan, ‘kan?”


Finza's head nodded. “Mas Farhan nganterin Mama go home first. He will come back here again.”


Nadhira only ooh ria.


Some time the three humans who had established friendly relations fell silent. Until Nadhira's voice again sounded and deporting silent. “The scenario of God is indeed unique, yes. We met for the first time when we were just in college. Undergoing a friendly relationship, temporarily separated while busy with the final task. Uh, now reunited with Mikayla who is already my sister-in-law. And you, Za, will be my sister-in-law.”


“I can not imagine how we when we gather family. Must be a big storm, huh?”


The three women laughed together. They remember how they were in the same room. If in front of others they look calm and quiet. However, when it was three. It's gonna be a big splash.


“May God do not predestine Finza match with Farhan, yes,” said Mikayla.


Finza and Nadhira recounted Mikayla's words. Every good word that comes from the lips is a prayer.
