SKOR.id – Petenis ranking 12 dunia, Roberto Bautista Agut, akan jadi ayah. Istrinya, Ana Bodi diperkirakan akan melahirkan anak pertama mereka pada Agustus.

Tetapi, hati Roberto Bautista Agut, 31, justru campur aduk. Semifinalis Wimbledon 2019 itu teringat ayah ibunya yang meninggal dalam selang waktu 18 bulan.

Padahal, si bayi bisa jadi alasan Roberto Bautista Agut untuk bahagia karena menikah hanya beberapa hari setelah kematian ayahnya, Ximo Bautista, enam bulan lalu.

Ximo meninggal pada 22 November 2019 karena cedera yang lama dideritanya.

Saat itu, Rober - panggilan akrab Bautista - sedang berada di Madrid, Spanyol, untuk persiapan menjelang pertandingan final Piala Davis bersama tim tenis Spanyol.

Dengan hati berduka, Bautista meninggalkan Madrid, menguburkan ayahnya pada Sabtu (24/11/2019), kemudian terbang kembali ke Madrid untuk membantu Spanyol menyabet trofi Piala Davis keenam mereka.

Yang luar biasa, hanya 24 jam setelah menerima kabar kematian Ximo, Bautista memastikan Spanyol menang 2-0 atas Kanada, setelah Rafael Nadal.

Pada saat penyerahan trofi juara, Bautista tak kuasa menahan air matanya. Bahkan, Nadal mengakui komitmen rekannya itu sepanjang pertandingan.

Tapi, Bautista seakan ditakdirkan menghadapi hal-hal berat. Sebelumnya, ibu Bautista, Esther, meninggal secara mendadak.

Melalui bolg Behind The Racquet, Bautista menjelaskan kesulitan dalam satu tahun terakhir setelah kehilangan kedua orang tua untuk selama-lamanya.

Behind The Racquet itu semacam blog pribadi untuk tempat berbagi masalah pribadi di luar lapangan, yang dikelola pemiliknya petenis profesional Amerika, Noah Rubin.

Blog ini cukup dipercaya para kolega Rubin. Bautista adalah atlet terakhir yang membuka hatinya untuk Behind The Racquet.

Esther, ibu Bautista lebih dulu meninggalkan keluarganya. Perempuan itu meninggal dalam tidurnya pada 2018. Saat itu suaminya terbaring di kamar sebelah.

“Saya berada di klub ketika menerima kabar ibu saya tidur dan tidak bangun lagi. Dia baru 52 tahun. Tapi ibu saya menderita banyak stres ketika merawat ayah saya.”

Empat tahun silam, ayah Bautista terjatuh saat membersihkan kandang kuda dan dokter memastikan pria itu mengalami kelumpuhan dari leher ke bawah.

Yang menambah beban Bautista, insiden itu terjadi sebelum Olimpiade 2016 di Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Dia nyaris memutuskan untuk tidak ikut rombongan ke Brasil.

Ximo pun hanya bisa terbarung di tempat tidur. Dia bahkan membutuhkan mesin respirator buatan karena dia tidak bisa bernapas sendiri.

“Kami merekrut dua orang, dibantu oleh ibu saya, untuk merawat ayah saya 24 jam sehari. Ketika Ibu meninggal, saya dan Ana memutuskan untuk tambah orang."

Satu hal yang paling diingat Bautista, dia tidak bisa berhenti bermain tenis.

Pertama, karena mereka butuh biaya operasi dan perawatan Ximo.

Juga karena sang ayah tidak ingin putra yang begitu dibanggakannya melepas impian yang telah digenggamnya sejak kecil.

“My mom passed away in 2018. I was at the club I used to train at when I got a call after practice. I found out my mom went to sleep and didn’t wake up. It was 100% unexpected. She was very young, only 52 years old, but was supporting a lot of stress from taking care of my father. He was in the bed in the next room when my mom passed away. Back in 2016 my father was in an accident. My father fell while he was cleaning our horse stables and became paralyzed. From my father’s accident he became a quadriplegic, couldn’t move from the neck down. He used an artificial breathing machine since he couldn’t do it himself. We had two people, plus my mother, who took care of my father 24 hours a day. Then when my mom passed away and it was all on my wife and I. I would practice and then use my free time to go home and visit my father in the hospital or the house. I knew that during this time I could not stop playing. I had to help my father. In the beginning we didn’t know how much the treatments would cost or all of his operations. I know that besides the money playing tennis is what my father wanted for me. My parents wanted me to make my dreams come true no matter the situation. I kept playing and fought harder than I ever did. That was my way of making it worth it. During this horrible time is when I played some of my best tennis. I was there for my family as much as I could, but I couldn’t throw away what I have worked all my life for. I never gave up. It was November of 2019, when my father passed away. It was during the Davis Cup match against Canada. I got to be with him his last few minutes and played a match 24 hours later. It was what my father wanted for me. His passing was a little unexpected but my family knew that it could happen any day or month. Even though I knew this, once your father passes away you face that. These tough moments made me stronger and more powerful. It gave me a strength others didn’t have. It made me more focused and motivated. I did everything I could to fight hard on the court to show my mother and father that their hard work was worth it.” @robertobautistaagut Go to behindtheracquet.com for extended stories, podcast and merch.

Maka itu Bautista tetap bermain di Piala Davis walau baru menghadiri pemakaman ayahnya beberapa jam sebelumnya. “Itu pasti yang diinginkan ayah saya.”

Kematian Ximo agak tak terduga, tapi Bautista tahu itu bisa terjadi kapan saja. “Anda kehilangan satu-satunya orang tua yang masih ada dan tak ada kata-kata.”

“Tetapi, momen sulit ini membuat saya lebih kuat, lebih fokus, dan termotivasi. Saya akan menunjukkan kepada ibu ayah saya bahwa kerja keras mereka sepadan."
