2 Sad Cry

"Anna... Anna" someone called.

"Anna ... honey," he said again.

"Anna..." he continued.

A very handsome man was smiling looking at Anna closely with a gaze full of love and longing. The man fondly stroked Anna's head which was in his lap.

Anna opened her eyes and looked back at the man who was right in front of her, her tears slowly flowing, her tiny hands caressing every inch of the man's face, the man she missed so much.

The two of them share a deep love and longing for each other.

"This, wasn't it a dream dear?" Anna asked the man.

"If this is a dream, I don't want to wake up again Fateh," she continued in a very soft voice at the man.

Only a smile that Anna found as a response from the man who turned out to be her husband (Fateh), a smile that could easily make Anna's heart feel calm and peaceful.

"Anna... you remember the first time I made a promise 15 years ago? Exactly the day we pledged our relationship, hmm?" Phe asked honey.

Anna who heard that immediately got up and sat down, while nodding she repeated the promise her husband made fifteen years ago.

"You promise, whatever happens when we grow up you will still hold my hand. The world may change, the year may always change, time may always turn but one thing is certain when we grow up, you will never leave me-unless death picks you up."

Said Anna, who was already sobbing, hugging the man who also hugged her dearly.

"And remember this dear, the reason I live is to guarantee your happiness, and for that, before I leave, I have to make sure your life remains happy even without me by your side," he said as he hugged Anna.

After saying that, slowly and surely Anna no longer felt her husband's warm embrace.

Anna saw the man getting further away with a smile full of love that couldn't be separated from her beautiful lips, she tried hard to reach the man but, the figure she loved so much was getting further and further away and then disappeared as white smoke blocked her view.

Anna woke up with sweat pouring down from her face to her whole body. He immediately sat up, his dream so really beautiful but also painful.

She then turned to look at the clock on the nightstand, which was already 2 in the morning.

Leaning on the head of the bed, Anna closed her eyes in extreme pain. Her chest felt very tight.

'Why? why did Fateh hide this from me? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have lost like this. If I had known from the start, I wouldn't have planned that program. In my life, you are very precious. I can't live without you, baby' thought Anna.

However, from the beginning, Fateh had planned not to tell Anna. Of course with reasons not to want Anna to suffer because of it.

The woman knew after the tragedy happened, how broken her heart was. God seemed to be making a joke by taking Fateh away from her without letting him try to fight for the man's healing first.

In the cold silent night in the dark room, the sobbing voice of a woman who was so beautiful and beautiful was heard.

The little lips let out a muffled cry with a hand grip, making the atmosphere even more depressing.

Can you imagine what the devastation is like right now?

"Anna's condition is getting worse?" Fitra asked a man who was none other than Ammar, Anna's older brother.

"Yes, the girl who used to live full of love, is now living without a soul," answered Ammar quietly.

They always watch Anna from afar. Ammar wants to hug Anna and then say that everything is fine but, right now Anna is like a little hedgehog full of thorns. With his thorns, he protects himself from all things that try to approach him.

Even if it was to treat his wound, Anna still wouldn't allow it.

The little sister who always depended on and spoiled him now turned into a stranger, in a day everything changed.

"Everything happened so fast," said Fitra, handing a can of soda to Ammar.

Fitra couldn't sleep even though to unwind for a moment she chose to sit in the garden drinking a few cans of soda.

But, unexpectedly he saw Ammar already there first. Thankfully, at least he wasn't drinking alone.

Ammar Khalil Wijaya, a handsome man who is very devoted to his parents, a great brother to his younger siblings, a tough man for his wife and children, and a true pilot, is the picture of an Ammar for anyone who knows him.

But, he is still a human who has the lowest side in him and it is very clearly seen now when his beloved sister loses her source of happiness, he can't do anything for his sister, because the younger sister refuses to exist.

"How are your mother and Fania doing?" asked Ammar back while accepting the one given by Fitra who then opened it and drank it.

The pain in his throat from the soda didn't stop him from finishing the drink. This pain is not comparable to the pain felt by his beloved sister.

"Not much different from Anna," said Fitra.

Then he drank his drink, after that, there was no more conversation between the two of them, they quietly enjoyed the night breeze with their thoughts, because without talking and discussing each other they knew the burden they were carrying was not light.

Ammar quite understands how the family of this man who sat not far from him was destroyed. Fateh is worthy of Anna who is the favorite of the family, his friendly and polite demeanor makes him easy to accept, even though he loves his sister-in-law very much. So, he knew very well how it felt to lose Fateh in their lives forever.

As the eldest son in the family, Fitra must still look stronger than anyone, because he has to protect all family members who are his responsibility and priority.

Fitra Malik Al-Ghifary is a successful CEO of a company engaged in the property sector. Calm nature and talkative are the characteristics of this man.

He has a handsome and charming face. A personality like that makes people afraid to talk to him but, not with Ammar. Because Ammar knows very well what his brother-in-law is.

"I heard Anna's sobs," said Fitra.

Ammar who heard then looked at him, "when I walked here, I heard the sound of crying coming from his room." Fitra continued because she understood Ammar's gaze.

A look that conveyed great concern.

'Ah! Yes, I remember, Anna always buried Fateh every morning this week, she would return home in the afternoon or evening, even though Anna never spoke or just greeted her when he met' Ammar thought.

But he will see his sister in good condition, even though her appearance looks disorganized with a puffy face and swollen eyes from constant crying.

'Anna, how can I lighten your burden? we all love you An.' He thought.

He was a little relieved that Anna would take care of her health, so she could cover Fateh's grave. That way he can always monitor Anna's condition because he can't see Anna unless Anna comes out of her room to leave.

Even eating and drinking Anna did in the room, she never wanted to be invited to eat with the others at the dinner table. Anna pulled away from anyone.

After feeling better Ammar got up from his seat and took a deep breath to breathe in the night air which was getting colder because of the rain that always fell in the morning and stopped when it was late this week.

Exhaling slowly with the hope that the burden is also slightly reduced. His slow steps brought him back into the luxurious 3-story house belonging to Anna's parents-in-law, to the guest room on the 2nd floor right at the very end, the place provided by the owner of the house for him, his wife, and two twins to rest.

He needs their hugs now to calm his heavy mind, and his body also needs rest, because the day ahead will be much harder for them than today.

Happy reading, sorry for the late update, hope you like it.
