The tears that accompany your departure

"She had an abnormality in her lungs. He's too small to have surgery." The doctor said with disappointment.

How heartbroken Aleris heard the words of the doctor. He didn't think this would happen. It feels like just yesterday he got acquainted with Aunt Lira and Zion. Now Aunt Lira has left him. The baby is also in critical condition. Aleris felt shaken by it.

Arran then called all the famous doctors of his acquaintance. But it doesn't affect anything. Aunt Lira could not be saved. And the condition of the baby is also not possible to do surgery. Just this time Aleris saw Arran shed tears. This might be a big blow for Arran. Aunt Lira is the only family she has. Aunt Lira also left him.

Aleris tried to comfort Arran a little, meaki her heart also felt lost. However, nothing could comfort Arran's heart. It's still lamenting the corpse of Aunt Lira.

"Arran, maybe it's time for Aunt Lira to take a long rest. He will no longer feel pain. He will now rest in peace with the Lord. Break your heart." Aleris.

"She was my second mother. Since I was a teenager, I have lived with him. He takes care of me like his own son. He was my home, my home, when my true home was gone." Arran said with weight.

"I know, this must be very hard on you. But we have to accept it. This has become a miracle of destiny. May Aunt Lira have the best rest by her side."

"...." - ".Arran said nothing. He now stroked his delicate tantric cheeks which had turned very pale. This is the last time Arran can see his face.

"Arran, do we have to tell Zion? I think Zion has the right to see her mother's face one last time." Ask Aleris.

"Yes, you're right. We have to bring him here." Arran then got up. He and Aleris then went down to the first floor.

Aleris sees Zion playing with Garfield. Aleris' tears instantly flowed. The boy did not know that his mother was gone forever. What if he knew, how to explain all this to him? Aleris could not shatter the smiles and laughter that emanated from his face when he heard the news of his mother's departure.

They reluctantly approached Zion. Zion's face was still cheerful. He was so excited when he approached Aleris and Arran.

"Om Ran, Aunt. How is Mama's condition ? He's healed, right?" Asked Zion excited.

"Zion, listen to Om Ran. Zion's a big boy now, isn't she?" Arran tried to hold back the tears that almost came out of his eye patch.

"Yes dong. Zion's gone to school." Answer Zion Plain.

"Zion, since Zion is already big, Zion can already be everything. Zion is independent. Not bothering anyone. Including Mamah Zion. Mamah Zion wants a long rest, God loves Mamah Zion more. So Zion's okay if mama Zion wants to rest and meet God?" Arran now has no power to stem his cries.

Sure enough, Zion's face immediately turned sad. There was not a hint of joy on his face.

"Mammy? Where's Mom Om? Mammy? Mammaah! Don't leave! Don't leave Zion! Mom!" Zion shouted while crying. He ran around looking for his mother.

"Zion, relax. Listen Aunt. Zion promised Mamah Zion that Zion would be a good boy. Zion will be an independent child. Zion remember?" Aleris is now embracing Zion.

"But... Zion wants to keep Mama's company." Whine Zion while crying.

"Zion, Mamah Zion wants to rest. So let him rest in peace. Zion must be sincere. Zion still has Aunt and Om Ran. We're not leaving Zion." Aleris rubbed Zion's shoulder.

"But Zion wants to be with Mama." Zion's still crying. It was only natural that the boy continued to cry. What child's heart is not broken when he learns that his mother has left him for good.

"Zion, does Zion want to see Mamah one last time?" Ask Aleris.

"alright. Come on." They went back upstairs too.

When he arrived, Zion immediately embraced his mother's body covered by a white cloth. His face was left open so that Zion could still see his mother's face for the last time.

"Mamaa." Shouted Zion as he pleased.

"Your, wake up Mah! It's Zion! Mah! Wake up, let's play again." Zion tries to wake her dead mother.

"Zion, relax. Your mother's been asleep forever. So let him sleep in peace." Aleris tried to calm Zion down.

"Moment." Zion kept crying.

After being bathed and pardoned, Aunt Lira was later buried behind closed doors in the Xavier family's private burial garden. The funeral was very closed, deliberately so that no one would know.

In the funeral, only Arran attended as the only family, Aleris, Zion, and Grandpa Lysander were specially invited by Arran. Arran went down directly to bury the body. He chanted the azan to the corpse and then covered it with soil slowly. Tears continued to accompany the burial process. Especially Zion and Aleris. Moreover, Zion, the boy continued to shout the word "Mamah" while sobbing.

After the grave was neatly closed, they prayed led by Grandpa. After all the process is completed. One by one people started to leave the place.

"Son, that's stoic. May the Lord give you patience and sincerity. Grandpa went home first." Grandpa said to Arran and Aleris.

"Yes, be careful on the road." Answer Aleris.

Grandpa then left. Now, only Arran, Zion, and Aleris remain here. Aleris then decided to go home, considering it was already very late afternoon. It's hard to bring Zion home. He insisted on accompanying his mother here.

"No, Zion wants to be with Mamah. Kasian Mama, he's alone here." Said Zion with a hiccup.

"Zion, Mamah Zion is not alone. What Zion doesn't know is that down there are two angels guarding Mama Zion. There is also a good charity that will accompany and illuminate Mama Zion's place down there. If Zion wants Mamah Zion is not alone and continues to be happy down there. Zion Harua is a beautiful child. Pray for Mamah Zion selapas prayer and other prayer services. Zion want?" Aleris.

"...." - ".Zion just fell silent while crying.

"Well, now we go home." Aleris again persuades Zion to return home.

Zion finally wants to be brought home.

But Arran is still there. Arran's been cravings up there long enough. Aleris. Aleris knows, Arran loves his aunt as much as his own mother. Therefore, his tantalizing departure was a deep blow to Arran. Aleris then returns home without Arran.

After everyone left, Arran finally spilled all his sorrow in front of his Tanten tomb. He tried not to cry but it was hard. His chest was so tight and his soul was violently shaken.

"Tante, you promised to last until the end." Arran said in front of Aunt Lira's funeral.

"I'm sorry for failing to take care of you." Arran is now shedding tears.

"I promise to find the mastermind behind your death." Arran said firmly.
