On the eve of the turn of the year, Latief is wearing a hat, to cover his bald head because of his hair that has fallen out because his illness goes to the HI roundabout, where there is an event held by DKI Jakarta Provincial to enliven the night of the turn of the year. Latief goes there with his friends, Rahmat and Alan. Unexpectedly, Latief met with a friend during his college at UI, Nafisah.
"Nafir?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you Nafit?"
"Yes, what is it? Feelings I know you? "
"I'm Latief, your college friend. Still remember? "
"Oh yeah, Latief. Hey, how are you? "Shaking hands.
"I'm fine. What about you? It's been a long time since we met. "
"I'm fine. Yeah yes, it's been really long. Where are you working now?"
"I work in Money Finance. Where are you? "
"I continued S2 in Bandung. Now I'm off. "
"Oh, I see. You do not bored college all the time? Ha ha ha…"
"The demands of my parents, they said I should be more clever than them."
"Are you alone here?"
"Yeah ya, Latief. I am alone. Instead of bete at home. "
"Yes already with us-we aja. It's not good for a girl to walk alone. "
"Okay."
Nafisah also joined Latief and his friends. They enjoyed the new year's eve of the New Year's Eve with great joy. Until the most eagerly awaited moment. Countdown to new year 2013.
"5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Happy New Year!" The cheers of the whole event welcomed the coming of the new year with full of hope.
Shortly after, Nafisa chose to go straight home, for fear that his parents would scold him. Nafisah did not have permission to his parents to come to the acata. Latief also took the initiative to deliver Nafisah home.
"Latief, I'll go first."
"I anther yes."
"I do not have to. Ntar is ngerepotin again. "
"It's okay, I do not know well, girls walk alone malem-malem. It's a danger. "
"Really ngerepotin not?"
"Just relax."
"Okay, let's go. Thank you in advance. "
"Ntar aja say makasihnya, kalo've nyampe your house."
Latief rushed to his parked car not far from the venue.
After arriving in the car, suddenly blood poured from Latief's nose and complained about the unbearable pain in his head. Soon Latief was unconscious and fell near his car. Nafisah was panicked
and immediately summoned Grace and Alan to help him.
"Latief, why are you? Let's get up! "Nafisah panicked. "Grace! Alan! Bantuin dong! Latief fainted ya. Cepet get in the car! "
"Astagfirullah! Latief why faint, Nafisah? "Asked Rahmat surprised.
"I also do not know, all of a sudden he fainted. Take him off! "
"Alan! Help this first! The Latief fainted! Catch it here! "
"Gosh! Why else is he? "
"Do not tell me a lot! Come take the lift! Nafisah, book the car door! "
"Okay! Hurry! Watch Out!"
"Alan, you drive!"
"Okay! Hang on, bro! "
Quickly, Alan spurred Latief's car. Nafisah also tried to take Latief's phone and contact his family. He found the number belonging to Icha, his sister. Nafisah contacted Icha via Latief mobile phone.
"Hello, this is Icha?"
"Yeah, who is this?"
"It's Kak Nafisah, my friend is Kak Latif."
"Oh Kak Nafisah my college friend Kak Latief?"
"Yes Icha. Now you come to the hospital. Your sister fainted. Hurry! "
"Astagfirullah! Yes bro. I'm right there! "
Icha immediately awakened his father and informed him that Latief was hospitalized.
"Well, wake up! Kak Latief is hospitalized again! That's Nafisah calling Icha! "
"Astagfirullah! Yes, let's go there now! "
Icha and her father rush to the hospital. Feeling worried, his father sped up his car very quickly without regard to traffic on the famous streets of Jakarta jammed on the eve of the turn of the year.
Arriving at the hospital, Latief directly taken to the ER room to get help. Shortly afterwards, Icha and her father arrived at the hospital.
"What happened to Latief, Nafisah?" Asked Father Latief frantically.
"So gini, Om. Last night Latief wanted me to go home. Then he took his car. Not long after that, Latief fainted and her nose went blood! "
"Astagfirullah! The unbalanced child base! Already Om banned do not go out, still desperate! Om worried about getting worse. "
"What's Latief sick, Om?"
"She's brain cancer, Nafisa."
"Astagfirullah! That's right, Om? How long has Latief had the disease? "
"Since he worked on his thesis. Initially he experienced severe stress because his thesis was not completed. At that moment he collapsed and his nose started to bleed. Om panic and direct Om take it to the hospital. The doctor came and immediately took the om to his room. The doctor explained Latief's disease. Om initially did not believe and denied the results of tests performed by doctors. But that's all true. Om decided to keep this a secret from Latief, but Latief secretly eavesdropped on his conversation with the doctor. "
"Astagfirullah. No wonder at that time Nafisah often see Latief always carrying a handkerchief with blood stains on his handkerchief. "
"Yes, that is so. But om see, Latief not despair with the disease. She always convinces herself well. He works instead. And he has not banned him. but indeed he is a rebel child. But how else, om did not want to curb it. Om does not want him to be discouraged. "
Soon, the Doctor came out of the ER and explained what happened to Latief.
"How's my son, Doc?"
"Mr. Wawan, can we talk in my room?"
"Good. You wait here. "
Latief's father went into the Doctor's room.
"Pak Wawan, after I check, the disease experienced by the father's father is getting worse. And I ask the father to forbid him to do the hard work and travel till late at night. Because it will aggravate the situation. "
"I told Latief not to go tonight. But he rebels. "
"With a heavy heart, I want to deliver bad news that hit your son."
"What's that, Doc?"
"When the father's son is not long. We are predicting that Latief can stay within a few weeks. "
"Astagfirullah! Is there another way, Doc, to save my child? "
"We're sorry, Mr. Wawan. We've done our best. But, his cancer cells have spread throughout Latief's body. Maybe just a miracle that could save Latief. "
Latief's father could only remain silent hearing the explanation from the Doctor. He can only be resigned to the circumstances experienced by Latief.
Latief's father and doctor left the doctor's room and met Nafisa. Icha, Rahmat and Alan.
"Daddy, what did the doctor say?" Icha asked.
Latief's father was silent and could not answer her only daughter's question.
"Can we see the circumstances of Latief, Doc?" Alan asked.
"Well, you can meet him."
"Thank you, Doc."
They entered the room where Latief was treated. There was a very pale face from Latief, his dry lips and his weakened voice as he greeted his friends. His hands and feet were as if paralyzed could not be moved when he wanted to touch his sister's hand. Icha who saw the state of her dying brother was only able to cry.
"Hey, Icha why do you cry? Big sister is fine. Do not cry. "Softened Latief with his deeply weakened voice.
"Icha is okay, sister. Icha sad aja clay sister lemes kayak so. Not usually. "
"Sister must be healed, Icha. Just calm down. My sister healed soon. Be able to help Icha ngerjain school tasks Icha. "
"Icha also hopes if my brother recovered, kak," Icha said as he shed tears.
"Eh Nafisah. Why do not you go home yet? Ntar your pariah nyariin again. "Joked Latief with a soft voice.
When he heard Latief speak, Nafisah could not hold back the tears that began to drip.
"Well asked instead crying. Come one, smile. Which Nafisah I know is always cheerful? Oh yeah, sorry yes I can not take you. "
"Yeah, nothing, Latief. I can go home by myself. "
"What grace is Alan?"
"I'm Alan here, bro."
"Eh, anterin Nafisah dong .. Kasian him, malem-malem go home alone."
"Okay bro. I am the same as Rahmat going to nganterin Nafisah to his house. Come on Nafisah, we're anther. "Invite Alan.
"Yeah let's go home. Latief, I'm home yes. Cepet healed, "said Nafisah encouraging Latief.
"Yes thank you already nyemangatin me."
"Yes, I'm first, Latief. Get well soon. Eh Alan, you're the one driving. "
"Okay Grace. Where's your car key here? "
"Here!" Grace threw the car keys at Alan.
"Om we'll go home, yes."
"Alright. Be careful yes you guys on the road. Thank you for taking Latief to the hospital. "
"Yeah, om all the same."
Nafisah, Rahmat and Alan left the room where Latief was treated. Latief's father also asked about Nafisa, a friend during his college days. Secretly Latief liked Nafisa since he was in college until now. Latief wished she could say her feelings to Nafisah.
"Latief, that was not the nafit you used to tell me about?" His father asked.
"Yes it is Nafisah," said Latief. "I forgot I did not know you."
"It turns out your taste is good too, son." Joked his father who tried to comfort his dying son.
"Who used to be, Latief." Latief replied to his father's joke.
"Let's wait what else, quickly declare your feelings to Nafisa. Because you see, Nafisah seems to like you. "
"Latief again find the right time, Dad."
"The sooner the better, son. Later people take it. "
"Father, Latief will try."
The next day, Nafisa came to see Latief with a gift. It seems Nafisah wants to give a gift to Latief, because on this day, Latief has years.
"Assalamu'alaikum ..." greeting Nafisah.
"Walaikumsalam." Icha answered the greeting from Nafisah. "Eh there's Kak Nafisah. Kak Latief is still sleeping tuh I think. Want me to wake up? "
"Oh, I see. Eh no Icha. Kasian. "
"Yes, please sit down, kak." As Icha gives seat to Nafisah near Latief lying down.
"I stay first, okay. I want to go to my father outside. Sister is not okay I live? "
"Oh yeah it's okay. Be careful, Icha. "
"Okay. kak. I live first. Assalamualaikum."
"Walaikum Salam…"
Icha leaves Latief and Nafisah together to catch up with her father who is out for breakfast. Nafisa looked breathlessly at Latief. Soon Latief awakened from his deep sleep.
"Eh no Nafisah," said Latief, stretching. "Where is my father going?"
Latief looked healthy at the time.
"They go out for breakfast."
"Oh. You've been here long? "Latief asked attention.
"Not really, just nyampe nyampe."
"Oh," said Latief, yawning and stretching his arms and legs.
"Oh yeah, I got something for you."
"What the hell?" Asked Latief, waking up. "So curious."
Nafisah gave a gift containing a jersey of Manchester United football team with a number 7 back and there was a name
"Latief" is written on the number.
"It's a MU shirt. I know you are really fans very much MU, so I bought this. Then I cantumin deh your name in this shirt. It's your birthday present from me. "
Latief was surprised by what Nafisa had said. Surprisingly, Nafisah knows it's his birthday and his passion for soccer, especially Manchester United.
"Wow really good shirt. This is original. Thank you very much, Nafisah. Oh yeah, why do you know today is my birthday? And I myself forget my own birthday alone, "asked Latief. while rising from his sleep to sit.
"I still remember your birthday when I was in college," said Nafisah.
By the time they were in college and on Latief's birthday, his college friends including Nafisah gave a surprise on his birthday at the time. Latief was bullied by his friends, from throwing it with flour, washing it with water and spilling his birthday cake onto his face. It was a memory never forgotten by Latief. And until now, Nafisa still remembers Latief's birthday.
"Um, Nafisah, thank you for the prize. I do not think you still remember my birthday, "Latief said.
"Yes, you are welcome."
"Oh yeah, I can not talk to you about something?" Latief asked nervously.
"What do you want to say?" Nafisa asked Latief curiously.
While staring into Nafisa's eyes, Latief begins to express his love for Nafisah.
"Actually I really like you. In fact, more. I've been in love with you since college, "Latief said with a nervous stammer.
Nafisah was surprised by what Latief said. As if he did not believe that Latief finally expressed all his feelings to Nafisa.
"What the hell?" Asked Nafisah nervously.
"Really. It's really sincere from my heart. "Latief reassured.
Nafisah was silent. Nafisah confused what to say.
"I also feel the same thing with what you are now," said Nafisah confusingly.
"You mean?"
"Yeah, I also like you. I also love you, "said Nafisah stammered and
nervous.
They both smiled and looked at each other. Latief grabbed Nafisah's hand with warmth and emotion.
"You want to be my girlfriend?" Asked Latief.
Nafisah was silent silence. She seemed to dream that Latief had finally declared her love for Nafisah.
"Yes, Latief. I want to. "Nafisah replied softly.
"You want to accept me for what it is? With what I'm like? "
"I love you, Latief. Sincere from my heart. "
Both hugged each other. The look of happy face enveloped these two young men. Shortly afterwards, Icha and her father came to Latief's room.
"Uh, there's the Nafir. Have you been here a long time? "Asked Latief's father.
"Not bad, om"
"He looks like a son of a father again. What's the matter, Latief? "
"It's okay, yeah. Just seneng aja, "said Latief.
"Dong same story father."
"Oh yeah, I forgot not knowing my father was Nafisah. Father, this is Nafisah. My new boyfriend, "Latief said with a smile.
"Oh now you're dating?" Asked Latief's father. "Finally you have a boyfriend too, son."
"Hey, do not be so, yeah. It's shame there's Nafisah. "
Nafisah can only smile after Latief introduces Nafisa as his new lover to Latief's father. Her white face flushed with embarrassment.
"Well, so dong kak. Do not lose to me. "Joked Icha.
"Eh you, little ones. Here you are, "said Latief as he wanted to menjahili brother who he loved most.
"Come on kak, I'm already 3rd grade high school. It's still a child. "
"Already you guys are fighting." Latief's father tried to intervene.
"Kak Latief first."
"Already noisy! Remember, Icha. It's a hospital, not home. "
There was happiness emanating from everyone in the hospital VIP room. This makes Latief's life spirits increase to live a better life.
Shortly thereafter, Latief suddenly fell from her seat. Latief fainted and blood came out of his nose. Nafisah, Icha and his father were shocked. Nafisa tried to wake Latief, holding his cold hand. Icha ran out of the room to find a doctor.
His father also held his son's most loved hands after losing his wife who is none other than the mother of Latief who died a year ago. Nafisa was weeping at Latief's terrible state. So was his father.
Soon, Doctors and nuns came with Icha. The doctor told them to wait outside.
"Sir, Mbak, Ade, please wait outside yes. We'll check on Latief's situation. "Doctor ordered.
"Save my son, Doc! Please save my child! "Latief's father pleaded with the Doctor.
"We will do our best to save your son's life." The doctor assured him.
Nafisah, Icha and her father sat in a chair in front of the room where Latief was dying. There was an uneasiness on the faces of the three people who meant so much to Latief.
Appear Latief's father said a prayer to Allah swt. to provide help for his son. The same is done by Nafisah and Icha.
Adzan dzuhur also reverberate. They decided to go to a mosque that was in the hospital to practice dzuhur prayer and pray for Latief's healing.
"O God, heal the son of God. I want to see my servant boy smile again and see him back on the move with excitement. Only to You is the servant pleading Allah. "Please Dad Latief.
"Aamiin ..." Icha and Nafisah simultaneously mendo'akan Latief.
Meanwhile, Doctors and Sisters try to resuscitate Latief who is dying. But what is the power, God wants another. Latief also breathed his last breath.
The three of them were waiting in front of the room to find out Latief's situation. Soon, Doctor met Latief's father with a sad-looking face.
"How, dock? How's my son doing? "
"I'm sorry, I missed my prediction."
"Is my child healed?"
The doctor was just silent and it felt very hard to tell the truth to Latief's father.
"Doctor, please answer my question! Is my child healed? "
"I'm sorry, sir. We have done our best to save the father's son. But apparently, God wants another. Father's son is not helped. Latief died, sir, "explained the doctor.
"Innalillahi wa inna illaihi raji'un ..."
Latief's father was devastated to hear the explanation from the Doctor stating that Latief had died. Nafisah and Icha were weeping.
"Can we see the body, Doc?"
"Please."
They entered the room where Latief was dying because of the brain cancer he had been in since the last semester of his college.
The look of a happy face initially changed instantly into sadness. The room, which initially looked bright with happiness, became cloudy because it was covered with a deep sense of grief.
With courage, Latief's father prayed in front of his son's body to be placed in the most beautiful place in His heaven.
"Dear Allah. give thy best place in the Hereafter for the son of the servant of the most beloved. Indeed Latief is a very good boy, O God. "
His father decided to take his son home to be buried and buried beside his mother's grave, in accordance with what he asked before he died.
With courage, his father helped to put the body of his son into the grave and to call the call to prayer near the ear of Latief's body.
That is the end of Latief Hendrayana, a man who wants to always make the people around him feel happy, and he manages to realize that desire. Her father and sister who lost her mother lost her smile because she saw the strength of Latief. Nafisah, the woman he loved in college made happy, because he declared his love for Nafisah, which Nafisah waited long ago.
