The Substitute Woman on the First Night
Secret of Almira

Happy reading!

I'm getting anxious because Mas Denis still hasn't answered my question. Even after the call was cut off, he only talked to my mother.

"Mom, I'm asking you to pick Keisha up!" That first sentence was what Mas Denis said to my mother. He must have understood that it was impossible to take a 2-year-old toddler to the hospital.

"Why is Mira Denis?" asked my mother with a face that looked so anxious. I can understand how Mom feels. He must not be calm because he heard the words of Mas Denis earlier when talking to someone on the phone about Almira who was in the hospital.

Seeing the condition of mother, I tried to strengthen her while holding her body that began to dim.

"Mom, be patient." That's all I can say to my mother while waiting for an answer from Mas Denis.

"I don't know what Mira is, Mom. But from the information I got, it turns out that Mira hid her illness from us."

"I mean, Mas?" I asked to snatch the words of Mas Denis who had just finished. Not only was I surprised, both mother and Delano also displayed the same facial features. Of course, we all never thought that Almira had been hiding her illness.

"Is this why Mira left? He knew he would not be around much longer, so he deliberately wrote letters to me, mother, and also Mas Denis. Even he asked me to take his place to look after Keisha." I could only guess in my heart, feeling both of my eyes begin to get wet by the clear grain.

"Lissa and I are patient. We must not think the no-no until we hear the exact thing from the doctor there. So, we should just pray for Mira and get to the hospital." Delano is really wise. He said he immediately indoctrinated my mind to keep thinking positive, even the fear that had been present in me turned into a hope for Almira so that his condition was fine at this time. But Denis just left. He didn't like to hear Delano. I don't know if it was just my feeling or in fact he was still upset because Delano came to this house.

"Mom, I'll go first. Right now, I just pray and don't think anything! And it's true, Delano said, as long as we haven't heard from the doctor who handled Mira there, all the news is still confusing."

Without waiting for a long time, I went out of the house followed by Delano who also helped me to calm my mother. Seeing my mother like that, not only did I feel pain, but I really wanted to cry.

"Mas, wait! Delano and I went there." Although I have to run half, I can catch up with Mas Denis who will just get into his car.

"Yes, let's go in!" Denis finally got into the car. Delano and I caught up with him by occupying the seat behind the wheel.

During the trip I kept thinking about Almira. I don't know what happened to him, but I'm obviously really worried about his condition at the moment.

"You are patient. Now we have to keep praying for Mira to be okay." Delano tried to calm me down. He wrapped his arms around her to become the backrest for my body that already felt so weak. For a moment I cried in his arms. Remembering all the memories with Almira and of course not all the memories went badly like these days. Previously if remembered, we often went through many exciting things to make us both very close.

"Mira, you have to be strong! Brother is coming soon and we will meet again. Why else would you have to keep this a secret from Mom and Mas Denis? Why, Mira?" In my heart, I was a little upset by Almira's decision to hide the big secret she was supposed to tell my husband and mother. But, I'm sure if he must have a strong reason why he was desperate to choose a path that if I think, must be very hard to live. After all, parting with Keisha was something that I thought was very painful for her. Because in this world, not a single woman wants to leave her biological child.
