My Dear Teacher

My Dear Teacher
Hospital Drama (2)


"Listen yes, bang, now I understand how you look at us. You do not need to worry, I will not burden you so that you can calmly collect a lot of money for the woman you love. I think about him enough. Just her part. For the affairs of mothers and sisters, you do not need to think anymore. I will try to meet all the needs of the mother, Sigit and Lala. I am not going to college. Let my dream of being a doctor bury me for mother's sake. Self-happiness does not mean that my own mother is not happy.from now on I will find a job to be able to support women who have fought for me. I can't bear if you have to grieve after he put so much hope on Brother. Mother's pride today on Brother is so great. Already, bang. I must accompany Mother." Said Nanda.


"Nan, don't be. You misunderstood. My brother never intended to leave you. My brother will try to fulfill everything. Brother will fight for you, mother and sisters. Maafin Brother. Please don't tell mom." Damar Pinta. He welcomes.


After Damar pleaded, Nanda agreed. "You don't have to work either, Nan. The brother who will try to meet your needs. Keep preparing for the college entrance exam. My brother promised to finance everything. Again, I'm sorry, Nan. Please don't misunderstand." ask Damar.


"No bang, don't apologize. Brother is not wrong, Brother has the right to pursue the happiness of Brother. You don't have to think about us."


"Don't do it, Nan. My brother will not repeat it again. You're really sorry."


"Yes, I'm sorry too, Bang. If you do this again, I won't protest."


"No Nan, don't be. I promise I'll put family first."


Nanda smiled triumphantly as he managed to get his brother into a trap.


Now, the two brothers returned to his mother's nursery. Damar tried to act calm despite his restless heart. He was still confused by the cost of the hospital, but no longer wanted to express because there would be no misunderstanding for the second time. Damar did not want his mother and sister disappointed, especially until sad. He promised to do everything possible.

It's been three days that Ms. Anis has been hospitalized. Lastly Damar checked the total cost of hospital bills, about ten million. Damar could only be silent.


"When can the patient go home, huh, mbak?" ask Damar.


"Now you can, my. After the entire bill is paid off." replied the officer.


"Oh, so."


Damar left the administration. He thought hard, who would have helped lend funds for his mother's hospital expenses. If you have to casbon at work it feels bad. Damar only entered a few days, when his mother was sick the first time he had borrowed money, now the period must borrow again, moreover he had a lot of permission not to enter.


With a chaotic mind, Damar waited in the hospital garden. He no longer knew who to ask for help. To his friends is impossible because they have not worked and the average fate is the same as Damar. The economy is even dry.


Suddenly a WA message entered on his phone. [Mar, could you please send me an account? I know at this time you must need a lot of money for your mother's medical expenses. We are descendants of yes.] Said Bu Dita.


Reading the message made Damar want to cry. He did not choose wrong. The woman he loves cares deeply about others. Damar's tears actually flowed upon notice from the bank. Apparently Bu Dita sent quite a lot of money, more than what Damar needed for hospital costs. He actually does not want to involve Bu Dita because this is his responsibility, but he also does not know the way out. Hence Damar promised when the money was enough then he would immediately return it.


[Thank you very much, Mom. I Promise, if the money has been collected then I will immediately return it.] promise Damar.


[Don't think about it, Mar. What matters is that Ms. Anis is fine. You focus on mom first.] Reply Bu Dita.


[Yes, Mom. Again I say thank you. I did not expect that the savior God had sent me was my mother.]


Ms. Dita sent me a smiley emot. [Mar, no matter what happens, you have to remember that filial piety is the duty of every child. Especially the boys. If now you have not received blessing, never force the will. Keep trying, I will pray. Hopefully later, I don't know when, Ms. Anis will melt and be able to accept me. While waiting for blessing, keep drawing near to Allah, Mar, for Allah is the One who turns one's heart upside down. You keep learning so you can be a good priest.]


Damar smiled again reading a message from Bu Dita. He imagined how lucky he would be if he was really a match with his teacher. A woman who is saliha, can be a reminder of Damar and always make him calm and comfortable.


"Ahhhhh, O Allah .. May we really be a match. Aamiin." Damar prayer along with Iandang azan Zuhur from the hospital mosque. He who has rarely even been able to perform prayers fingers is now stepping his feet into the mosque.


After ablution, Damar stood in the front row. He solemnly performed the congregational prayer. His heart grew calmer as all the grievances were spilled on the prayer mat. He truly speaks with God, taking away all his burdens.

"Mar, where have you been? He said to go out for a while, but it's a long time." asked Ms. Anis, as her son walked into the hospital room.


There were also her three sisters there. During their mother's stay, Damar and his sisters stayed here. Damar had actually banned it, but his sisters, especially Sigit and Lala said they wanted to sleep in a nice room, even if it was just a hospital room. Hearing the words of his sisters, Damar felt sad. Their lives are very difficult. They have been relying only on the income of his mother as a washing worker whose wages are not much. Can eat and school her. While the school her three younger siblings are often paid with student duties, it feels Alhamdulillah. Where ever thought of staying at a hotel because of its incompetence.
