Mr. Irwan splits his time with Ms. Ratmi. If Bu Ratmi accompanied Riska in the hospital, while Mr. Irwan took Bu Kania and Pak Warno to the funeral.
It just so happens that there is Abbas and Anna who have just come after getting news from Rio that the daughter of Bu Kania has died and the operation on Riska will be done soon.
“I'm so sorry, Miss Kania!” abbas said.
Unable to withstand the sadness, Ms. Kania cried again.
Anna approached him immediately. “Patience, Mom! Mother's daughter is the best way for your daughter,” said Anna while gently rubbing the shoulder of Bu Kania. “Don't cry anymore, your daughter is already calm there. God must have placed the most beautiful place for him because with the cornea of the eye he donated made a person's life better. Hopefully the operation is also successful,” Anna continued.
“Can I see your daughter after surgery later?” ma'am Kania asked Pa Irwan who was standing by Abbas' side.
“Our house door is wide open for you, Bu Kania, Pak Warno,” Pak Irwan replied.
“Thank you, Sir! By looking at Riska, our longing can be treated later!” Pak Warno chimed in.
After saying sungkawa. Abbas, Anna and Mr. Irwan rushed to the hospital. Because the operation is already underway. Previously Mr. Irwan had contacted Ms. Ratmi would be late to come to the hospital. So that the operation can be done directly without waiting for the arrival of Mr. Irawan.
****
One week after the operation.
Riska still wears bandages on her eyes. And today is the day that Riska opens the bandage.
The feeling of impatience Riska felt. I really wanted him to see the world. After almost 20 years he lived in darkness.
Mr. Irawan and Ms. Ratmi were ready from this morning. They also did not want to miss this day.
Czech....
The door of the room opens. Riska thinks the doctor opened the door. But it turns out someone else.
“Sorry! You must have thought the doctor came in, huh?” greeting Rio when he saw the facial reaction of Bu Ratmi and Mr. Irwan who was also nervous.
Rio was always joking when he entered the room. The presence of Rio made the atmosphere become crowded. That's what Riska feels. The presence of Rio lately has spread a little cheer on Riska.
“Kak Rio has made me deg-degan deh!” say Riska with pursed lips.
Rio could only smile back at Riska's words. From the motion of Riska's lips, Rio had made sure that the girl was feeling nervous and embarrassed.
“It is very impatient, yes?”
Riska nodded.
“Not only Riska is feeling nervous and scared. Somehow mother is also a little scared, Nak Rio!” Ms. Ratmi chimed in.
“That's a natural thing, Mom!” sahut Rio's. “I'm scared too!”
“Why is Brother Rio scared?” ask Riska.
Rio smiled wryly.
‘I feel afraid if after seeing later you will forget me'
Inner Rio.
One week, Abbas' assistant was never absent to accompany Riska. One night he stayed to replace Mr. Irwan who was not healthy.
“Why?”
“What Brother Abbas will be here to see me opening a bandage?” ask Riska.
“He must be here, as far as I know they're on their way!” rio's reply that had suspected that Abbas ‘ was again questioned.
“Ris, do you still insist on continuing your request to Abbas if this operation is unsuccessful?”
“That's not a request, Brother Rio. But a trust that must be done especially that trust from the parents of Kak Abbas,” said Riska.
Seeing her daughter was talking seriously to Rio. Ms. Ratmi took Mr. Irwan out of the room.
Feeling the departure of both parents Riska. Rio approached Riska who was sitting on her bed
“Didn't you see Abbas' sacrifice all this time for your recovery, Ris?” Rio.
The man wants Riska to take it all away. Without having to sue Abbas for responsibilities he should not have.
“But Brother Anna approved everything!” reply Riska and make Rio silently grin at hearing her.
“You-you mean what?” rio asked slightly stuttered as he knew if Anna agreed to everything.
“I'm willing to do surgery because of Sister Anna. If this operation fails, Brother Abbas will marry me!” said Riska and got a piggy bank from Rio.
“What does Mr Abbas know about this?”
“Entaih! For sure according to Kak Anna, Kak Abbas will be responsible for the trust of his parents.”
“Happy day! Hello Riska, are we ready to open the bandage?” Doctor Halim greeted and asked Riska. He is the doctor who handles Riska.
And at the same time Abbas and Anna came. Shortly after that Mr. Irwan and Mr. Ratmi. They also wanted to witness the opening of the bandage and see the results of the operation.|
“Good day too, Doctor!” Riska and Rio.
“I'm ready for the opening of his bandage doctor!” said Anna.
“Good then! Sister please prepare everything!” doctor Halim.
“Good, doctor!” the nurse who accompanied the doctor.
“Assalamu’alaikum,” whispered Anna into Riska's ear.
“Waalaikumussalam, Sister Anna! You guys here too?” ask Riska.
“Yes, me and Brother Abbas also want to see the success of this operationthis,” Anna replied.
Though in his heart Anna could not calm down he was afraid that the results would make him lose the integrity of Abbas' attention.
During this week Anna continued to pray for Riska. And during that time Anna did not tell about her chat with Riska. He is confident that the operation will be successful and this time they will see the results, hopefully in line with expectations
Rio was looking at Anna with a hard to interpret gaze. Unbelieving the wife of the bus, Riska agrees to Riska's request without Abbas's knowledge.
Abbas himself refused because he did not want to. It stained Anna's heart.
