The Sand Palace II
Go home
Bilqis was getting thinner and drier, and she even just took off her hair with kitchen chopsticks. The sound of broken plates heard by Hani, he ran to the back to see his son cleaning up broken glass. The steaming cuisine, the vegetable slices, the sound of the washing machine, Hani helps Bilqis prepare all his work.
“No need to ma'am, I'll just sit down. Bilqis is soon finished.”
“So quiet, don't comment too much. Where's Rita?”
“Sister is still sleeping ma'am. Again less healthy, so Bilqis today who do homework”
“Today? last night and yesterday? Don't lie to mom, you don't think you know how rita is?”
“Sorry mom, Kasian Riky relapses often. Later if he gets better, Bilqis back to the dorm.”
“Mom knows you must have told Rita to leave school! It's the same as repeating next year. If you don't want to come home. Mom breaks Rahim's rope on you, you're not my son anymore” threatened Hani whispered in his ear.
“Huahh! Bilqis! Where's lu? Laper cave here!” jerit Rita down the stairs.
Seeing Hani's arrival, she grimacedly helped take the cooking inside the cauldron. “Eh no sister, when did it come? Girls at this hour if not in command of molor doang!”
Hani did not reply, she held back the anger of remembering Rina and all the good of the family. Finished eating together, bilqis undertook the routine obligation of giving Riky medicine. In the kitchen there are only Hani and Rita who are still silent. Arun who had just arrived smiling sumringah saw the arrival of Hani.
“Kak kok not tell you anyway if you want to come! Arun can pick up at the airport!”
“Nothing. You must be busy working, you are used to being alone. Oh yes, I want to talk to you both. Brother's arrival here to pick Bilqis home.”
“So don't come and keep asking Bilqis to come home. I haven't made the pilgrimage to mom's grave, have I?”
“Sorry before, you guys were calling brother instead of brother. But bulek, or rather mother."
“Sorry, the language of the city. Mom's grave is behind the house. Tomorrow morning we make a pilgrimage yes brother tonight stay here or until whenever sister stay, Rita does not ngelarang kok.”
“Family sister waiting at home. Brother's not here for a walk. Sister's intentions are already round, pick up Bilqis.”
“Kak! Tomorrow you take Bilqis away! Rita will not be in a relationship with her sister anymore! Only Bilqis this family chain connector!” rita raised her voice.
Bilqis heard clearly their debate, she turned to the room unwilling to interfere. All decisions in his hands. But, hearing her mother say she would untie the Uterus rope made her tremble not dare to argue.
“Maybe this is the way. I can't insist on demanding my own desires”
He packed his things, counted the remaining savings and took his jewelry box.
“Return trip definitely requires a cost that is not small. I have to sell jewelry for the same fare home mom” muttered Bilqis again with a sigh.
Not daring to tell Wijaya about his return. He deactivated both phones. All the stories will end, Bilqis inwardly mendo’ Wijaya to always be fine.
