Chapter 5 Fake Husband

Mirah: Grandma, don't say that.

Grandma smiled.. At me..

Now I know why grandma let me do and work. Because he wants me to be strong. He doesn't want me to be far away because he wants to be with me as long as he lives.

I am more motivated to work now. Because little by little I know my value to grandma.

I thought he just thought of me as a slave. But what he is saying now I understand why.

While grandma and I ate, brother joey came out of the room to open his eyes..

Joey: Nay...why are you the only ones eating?

Lola: tskkk, as long as you eat, you can smell it as fast as you can. Come and eat Mirah's birthday. We celebrated..

Joey: Mirah's birthday? what now Ayyy yes.. I forgot that mirah is 18.. Nakss dalagaha mirahpot..

Mirah: hahaha brother, don't twage me mirahpot. It sucks to hear it.

Joey: hahaha that's not what I want ehhh.. why.. Mom.. Mirah's preparation must be delicious, she's debo ehh..

I looked at Grandma,,

Mirah: grandma??? Grandma why??

Lola was holding her chest, and she looked pale with her eyes closed.. I stood up and immediately approached Lola..

Lahhh!!! What's going on with you??

Joey: mom??!! Why?? Joey also approached and immediately approached his mother..

Lola: My chest is just tight.. I will drink some water for a while....

Lola stood up and walked to the watering can when suddenly she fell down.. and lost consciousness..

Mirah: LLLOOOOLLAAAAHHH!!!! I screamed..

Brother Joey immediately came and picked up his mother..

We took grandma to the hospital...

While we were riding in the tricycle, Lola was unconscious and was crying at that time..

" grandma don't leave me pls.. " huhuhuhu" brother joey.. Lola huhuhuhu..

Joey won't speak but I know he's also very nervous at those times..

"Grandma, huhuhuhu don't leave me huhuhuhu grandma."

Joey: bro, please hurry.!!!

Almost flew the trycle at that time..

And my nervousness was strong because I could see that Grandmother couldn't breathe anymore..

I took Lola's hand and grabbed it..

Mirah: grandma don't let go ohh. Grandma...huhuhuh

Joey: nay..!! Wake up!! NAY!! W*NG!! I TOLD YOU DON'T SMOKE CIGARETTES EHH BECAUSE YOUR HEAD IS HARD!!! NAY HUHUHU MANHURRY UP!!!!!!

Joey said bitterly.. My brother also cried at that time because it was as if we both didn't see you

When Grandma Was Alive

We arrived at the Hospital and Buhat from brother and grandmother.

Joey: help!! Help my mom!!

Nurse: brother what happened to him..??

Big brother laid mom down on the white bed and then said..

Joey: He passed out!!

Nurse: bro, let's go to the table first and I just have some questions about the patient..

Joey: T*NGN* LOOK AT MY MOM FIRST AND ASK ME LATER!!!

Nurse: Doc is not here yet. Going down..

Joey: HOW DO YOU WAIT FOR THE PATIENT TO DIE BEFORE YOU TREAT???!!

nurse: calm down brother..

Joey: How can you calm me up when you're not doing anything at all!! my mother wasn't breathing before!! punyeta look at my mom!!!!

The nurse was panicked and approached her mother and pushed her..

Then they ran to other colleagues. Only then did they approach my mother.. The curtain was closed so we couldn't see what was happening to grandma.

Mirah: huhuhu grandma... Grandma is an older brother huhuhuhu..

I came closer to my brother and because I was crying, my brother hugged me.. His eyes were red because of crying. and the Nurses were furious.

Joey: Mom will survive, she won't be lost.

Mirah: kuyaaahhhh huhuhuhu..

Joey: shhhhsss hold on Mirah..

After a while the Curtain was opened.. So Kuya Joey and I both looked..

We approached grandma.. But she was already covered with a blanket..

Joey: what happened? !!!nurse what happened to my mom??

Nurse: I'm sorry.. But your mother's life really only ends here..

Joey: what??? are you trying to fool me!!?

Nurse: I can leave you first.. The nurse left..and brother Joey and I were left behind...we both stared at Lola's body lying down and covered with a blanket.

Big brother approached Lola and removed the blanket from her face..

Then cry

Joey: Nay...huhuhuhu nay why did you give up now??

Mirah: Huhuhu Grandma!!!! Grandma...

At that time I felt very unlucky that it was my birthday..

I can't accept that grandma is gone, instead of her birthday, what I will remember is not the day grandma died..

The sisters worked hard.. And grandma's mind was immediately fixed..

I was just next to him while sitting on the bamboo chair and looking dumbfounded at grandma's coffin.

Nelia approached me

Nelia: mirah, I sympathize with the loss of grandma.

I nodded while still staring at the coffin..

"Mirah,, you will also accept that Lola is gone. Don't give up."..

Mirah: sister, do you know the feeling that you miss him because you got used to having him always by your side? Those times when he wakes you up in the morning to remind you that it's noon and you have work.. Now it's gone.. When you go home to make him dinner because he didn't eat without your sister.. why is that? Back then I thought that maybe I was just a burden to grandma.. But now... I only now know my value to her.." why when she was gone only then did I know that I was very important to grandma..

I miss her so much sister.. I can't seem to live without Lola.

Nelia: Be strong, my dear.. Everything that happens in life has a reason. And do you know what your grandmother is thinking right now?

That he is very proud of you. Because you grew up to be a hardworking, and kind child. Do you know that grandma always stars in you for me? They say that you are the one who keeps him alive.. If you weren't there, he would have been gone for a long time. Then sometimes she even tells me that if you lose her.. You will be able to live without her... Your grandmother is very proud of you mirah.. Your grandmother loves you very much.

A Sunday passed and Lola was buried..

While we were at the dining table, sister Bernadette, Glenda and brother Joey were in front of us

Bernadette: My life is pretty hard right now. Also, we're short on budget, so maybe we can't let you live with us because the house is too tight, and you won't have anything to study for.
