WOUNDS IN HAPPINESS
Wound and happy

Arriving at the park, Ayuna closed her eyes, letting the wind blow her face. Bagas sat on the chair next to Ayuna. Giving ayuna a little space to win her heart.

Cup

Ayuna felt that someone was hugging and kissing her cheek, and she felt as if she heard a whisper of a gibran.

" Gibran is happy when mommy is no longer sad."

With a flash of movement, Ayuna opened her eyes. Ayuna turned to Bagas. Bagas who was worried immediately approached Ayuna.

" What's the matter, dear ?" ask Bagas.

" Did you hear that?"

" Hear what?"

" The gibran sound."

" No."

" Gibran is here, he's among us." Ayuna.

" Ayuna, you.."

" Come here"

Ayuna withdrew Bagas' hand before continuing her words. Bagas according to him approached Ayuna and knelt down.

" Now close your eyes, let the wind get into the pores of the skin." Ayuna.

Bagas closed his eyes, doing what Ayuna had just ordered.

" Papi please take care and be happy mami."

" Huh?"

Bagas opened his eyes, he would hear Gibran's voice.

Ayuna opened her eyes and smiled.

" I told you Gibran was here he was with us." Ayuna.

" Gibran wherever you are, mommy and papi will always love you. You're the most beautiful gift Mami ever had, you're the lamp of mami's life." Say ayuna while closing your eyes.

Then Ayuna felt someone embrace her.

" I love you son." Ayuna.

Then the feeling of comfort when hugged was gone. Ayuna opened her eyes and wiped her tears.

At the same time, mama Bayu who had just redeemed the medicine saw Ayuna and Bagas who were in the park. He then took the initiative to approach her, and reported the happy news that Bayu had received a heart donor.

" Mommy gibran."

Bagas and Ayuna looked over.

" Hey." Say Ayuna with a smile.

" I'll leave you guys for a minute, so you can have a chat."

" Oh, thank you, papi gibran."

Then Bagas chose to sit in a chair not far from the place where Ayuna and mama Bayu.

" It's been a while since we met, how's Gibran doing?" Ask mama Bayu.

" Gibran is fine, he no longer feels pain."

" Does that mean Gibran is healthy?"

" Yes, Gibran is well. It's even very healthy."

" Where is Gibran?, I don't see him with you?. Don't the three of you always go together?"

" Gibran was with us, but his body was already in heaven with God."

" uh..."

Mama baby shut her mouth.

" I'm sorry, I don't know if....."

" It's okay, I'm feeling a lot better now." Ayuna held the hand of Bayu's mother.

" I'm so sorry about Gibran."

Ayuna smiled.

Mama Bayu wrinkled her forehead.

How could Gibran's mom know that Bayu had surgery?, but I haven't told her. Inner mom Bayu.

" There's no need to be surprised because I already know that Bayu got a heart donor." Ayuna said as if she knew what Mama Bayu was thinking.

" Em yeah, how do you know if Bayu's got a heart donor?"

" Because Gibran donated his heart to Bayu." Ayuna smiled as she looked at Bayu's mother.

" Ap.what?"

" Gibran's last request, a few days before the critical gibran. I found a heart donor card in Gibran's book. And the morning before Gibran was critical, I asked him why he had a heart donor card. And you know, answer if he's gonna find a heart donor for Bayu, so they can play a lot of games together."

Ayuna's eyes began to glaze over, recalling her conversation with the gibran before the critical gibran. Mama Bayu seemed to enter into the feelings that Ayuna felt. He held Ayuna's shoulder. Ayuna wiped the end of her eyes.

" And you know, at that time Gibran stated as well as asking me, can he donate his heart to Bayu. Hearing that of course I became a little angry, maybe disappointed and upset. How could Gibran think of donating his heart, while himself still fighting the malignant cancer."

" Hiks.." Mama Bayu cried, she was so proud of Gibran. Gibran is still thinking about the seriousness of others, even though he himself is suffering from malignant cancer.

" You know, even at the last moment, Gibran still asked me for permission to donate his heart to Bayu. As a mother of course I refused, isn't it the same as killing my own son by letting him give his heart to someone else. I want my son, I want him healed. But it seems that God did not grant my request. And when I gave Gibran permission. He smiled and left for good..."

Mama Bayu could no longer hold back her sadness, she cried and hugged Ayuna.

" I'm sorry Ayuna, if only Gibran hadn't met Bayu. Maybe Gibran won't donate his heart to Bayu." Lirih Mama Bayu's.

" No need to apologize, meet Bayu or not. If Gibran's destiny is like this, then Gibran will still go." Say Ayuna with a smile.

Mama Bayu took off his embrace and looked at Ayuna.

" You know, this wound is like standing in a sea of happiness. I'm hurt because my son is gone, but I'm also happy because my son, his friend can live his life normally. I'm sad, but I'm proud of what my son did."

Ayuna smiled even though her tears did not stop wetting her cheeks.

" Thank you Ayuna, thank you for allowing your son to donate his heart to my son. So that my son can recover and live a normal life." Say Mama Bayu who hugged Ayuna again.

" Don't thank me, thank Gibran for praying for him, so that he'll always be calm in a world that's different from ours."

" Surely, I will always pray for him, I also pray that you will have happiness."

" My happiness is gone with Gibran gone, but I will try to get up and be happy for him." Ayuna.

" After this, may I visit Gibran's tomb?"

" Of course. Gibran is buried here, next to his grandfather's grave who also suffered from this deadly cancer."

" Thank you Ayuna, we don't know what way to repay Gibran's kindness?"

" You can repay Gibran's kindness by lovingly raising Bayu."

" That's definitely gonna do."

They hugged again before finally separating, because Bayu had to take the medicine that was being brought by Mama Bayu.

Bagas who seemed to understand if they were going to split up, immediately walked towards Ayuna. Mama Bayu is seen throwing a smile when passing by Bagas.

" Hey, are you okay?" Ask Bagas.

" Yes.." Say Ayuna while cleaning up the remaining tears on her cheeks.

Bagas held Ayuna's cheek. Ayuna smiled.

" Thank you for always being by my side."

" And I'll stay by your side forever."

Bagas kissed the ayuna's forehead and hugged her.

Meanwhile, Rini holds onto Anjas' shoulder, as Anjas sees Ayuna and Bagas embracing.

" Kid, are you crying?" Ask Rini.

" No ma." Said Anjas while rubbing his eyes.

" I may be sad about losing my son, but I'm also happy to see Ayuna with the right person. I'm sure Bagas can get Ayuna out of this slump."

Rini rubbed Anjas' back.

Lord, give happiness to my son. I want my son to find a woman like Ayuna, who truly loves my son for who he is. Inner Rini.
