1 Story, 4 Love, 2 Worlds
GATHERINGS
A bright morning begins today. The sunlight radiated its warmth as if it had never rained last night. The sound of birds chirping mixed with the sound of vehicles and the sound of some people who have started their activities.
White minimalist house with a combination of gray color that is the residence of the Word and Nana. As usual in the morning Word starts activities like a mother who wakes up early to prepare breakfast for her son Nana. In the middle of the room in the house there are two rooms that are clinging to each other, one of them is a small pink room that looks so crowded with some pictures and trinkets of girls. Inside the tiny pink room was seen a child who was dressed assisted by his mother. The child was Nana and Hanifa's mother.
The door to their room was deliberately locked and closed tightly so that his father did not know if there was a Hanifa in the room.
"Mothers... At school if Nana was told a story about Mom, Nana would have to say what?" Tanya Nana to her mother.
Hanifa was saddened to hear her son say so so then patiently and cheerfully Hanifa said,
"If told to tell me about Mom, then Nana said that my mother is beautiful like an angel who will always look after and see me in heaven"
"Where is heaven's mother?" Ask the curious Nana.
"The heaven's on Mom's soles"
Nana grew even more astonished as she looked down at her mother's feet.
"It's been... It's been... His father will shout call Nana.. I'll tell you about heaven" Hanifa continued.
When they were ready they left. That day Hanifa did not come along with the reason of wanting to meet a friend. At that time Nana without much question allowed her mother not to go to school with her.
"It looks like I have to see Raihan. I want to know why he can come back to this world" Hanifa said.
That day Hanifa wanted to meet with Raihan and it didn't take long for Hanifa to find Raihan. Just enough to find Fina on campus then be with Raihan.
In a campus corridor filled with several students, Raihan was standing at the corner of the wall pole adjacent to the classroom numbered 109. At that moment Raihan realized the presence of Hanifa who was suddenly in front of him. Hanifa smilingly looked at Raihan then slowly started to approach.
"Eh... What are you here for?" Raihan asked with a look of astonishment.
"I came here on purpose to look for you Raihan" Hanifa said with a smile.
"Did? Why look for me, brother?" Raihan asked in amazement.
"I just wanted to ask you a few things. Let's get there here too crowded and noisy" Take Hanifa to Raihan.
Then they headed towards a staircase located in the corner of the corridor. On the stairs there is no one but a few flower pot decorations found in various corners of the stairs.
"Can't I ask you something?" Ask Raihan.
"Well, what do you want?"
"I'm surprised no one can see let alone hear me including that Fina but I'm increasingly surprised by the presence of a brother who can see even hear me. Why can't Hanifa's sister while others can't?" Said Raihan who was so curious.
"Hm... It's because I'm the same as you" Hanifa said staring with a smile.
"You mean Hanifa? Brother is also a lifeless creature aka a ghost?" Raihan asked who was so shocked to hear Hanifa say.
"Hm... Like that's..." Said Hanifa laughing.
"But what brings you back to this world, Raihan? Can you tell me?" Hanifa.
"I don't really understand what's happening to me either. At first I woke up from a long sleep. I opened my eyes and I saw that I was in an endless white room. I also did not know and did not remember about myself until I finally saw on the side of the room some impressions of my past that finally made me remember who I was. At the same time I saw some people who were saddened by my passing. One of those people was Fina, she was so very sad and devastated over my departure. Until finally I prayed and begged to be reunited with Fina so that I could erase her sadness into a happiness. It turned out that my prayer was granted in fact I was indeed present back in this World but I could not be seen and heard by Fina. I was very sad and began to despair because I could do nothing to Fina"
Raihan was so detailed explaining what had happened to him while hoping Hanifa could provide a solution to him.
"If Hanifa's sister, how come she's back in the world?" Raihan.
"My answer is almost the same as your answer. This is all because of the prayer of the creator. A few years ago before I gave birth to my beautiful daughter I always pleaded to be saved in labor but if I could not survive then I prayed to still be able to return to the world to seeing my daughter. It is true that I am in this world but I am only temporary, I can only be present for two months, namely in Nana's birthday month and another month after" Hanifa replied concisely and clearly.
"But why is Brother Hanifa able to talk to his son Brother?" Ask Raihan in surprise.
"Sister Hanifa can even touch something? Why don't I?" Ask Raihan
"At first I couldn't touch anything either but maybe because of my love for Nana I finally could touch something. The first thing I remember when I could touch Nana's milk bottle the night she cried because she wanted to drink milk and since then I can touch something" Hanifa said.
"Can I be like that too?" Ask Raihan.
"Maybe, you should always try if you don't try where you can, right?" Answer Hanifa.
In a different place, in a room where the walls are coated with some glass and seen several tables and chairs are clinging to each other but each has a bulkhead. Each room divider contains a computer, laptop, stationery and some other office equipment. On the left after the entrance of the room were four separate rooms. The first room is a large room is the main room of the company leader, the second is the room of the head of the personnel section or commonly called HRD, the third room in which there are four tables each occupied by the head of the company division one of the people who occupy the room is the Word. The last room that is a little small from the rest of the room is the archive storage room and company documentation.
Firman works at one of the private companies engaged in the sale of vehicles. Firman occupies a position as the head of the division of revenue and expenditure of goods. All responsibilities of buying and selling vehicles must be under the supervision and permission of the Word.
In the room the Word was working on the sales report and from the table next to someone said,
"Mas the Word is not busy today?" Said a woman named Marni.
Marni is a woman who is a little old from the Word. He is the head of the finance division which is also one room Word. Marni is a widow known as Pelakor. Some people in the office often mocked and joked about the Word and Marni said that Marni approached the Word was no longer the name of Pelakor but was indeed the widow of her widower. Firman never angry or upset with jokes people in the office even sometimes Word joked with Marni. But Marni seems to save the taste to the Word and looks happy if she is bullied or even get ridicule from friends in the office.
"I'm not busy, why is Miss Marni?" Answer the Word that keeps staring at the laptop screen.
"Today we go home together" said Marni in a spoiled voice.
"I'm sorry well mom, instead I refused her love Mom ehh I mean her invitation Mother Marni but right I have to pick up the child first at her grandmother's house. Our direction is different ma'am" replied the Word a little joking.
"Oh so well mas, then next time it's important we can go home together" persuaded Marni.
"Yes, ma'am" answered the Word that doesn't really care.
One day when Hanifa was in the office of Firman she had a chance to see Marni who was so trying to find the attention of the Word. Actually at that time Hanifa was jealous but she only laughed at Marni's behavior and Hanifa always liked to joke by scaring Marni. Hanifa did not want if the Word really liked him not the Word but she could not be willing if Nana had to have a mother like Marni.
While on campus, Hanifa and Raihan tell each other about their past. Even Hanifa is also the story of Marni who is in the office of the Word. Hanifa let Firman close to anyone but could never be willing if Nana should have a mother who is not better than him. But the other case with Raihan he could never be willing if he had to see Fina share his love with others. Raihan was eager to be able to touch something so that if one day someone close to Fina he could teach the person a lesson.
"When will you let Fina suffer because of you? Follow her with her chosen man but still you have to help select and choose the best for her" Hanifa advised Raihan.
"I don't know that either, brother. My feelings for her are still the same as before. I love her so much even though we can't be together anymore" Raihan sighed.
From inside the classroom came a woman dressed in a long-sleeved shirt. It was Fina who came out of the classroom. Fina had just finished her thesis guidance with some of her friends. They were so cheerful with happy smiles because there were no revisions from the teaching staff.
"Look at Fina sister, she's so beautiful in my eyes. Her smile seemed so sweet though....."
While Raihan spoke Hanifa cut off her conversation,
"Although that smile was just a fake smile? A smile that seemed to cover his sadness and regret?"
"It turns out Brother Hanifa could also see the sadness on Fina's face" Raihan said.
"Not just looking at me can even feel what you feel. I know because I've felt it too" said Hanifa who looked at Fina.
"That's one of the reasons why I wanted to see you. I want to help you and I hope to be helped to feel calm leaving this world" Hanifa continued.
"You mean Hanifa? I don't really understand brother?" Ask Raihan.
"It is not yet time to explain what my purpose is. But for now I just want to find out what causes you guys to feel this way and it seems like I'm starting to know what I should do" Fina said.
Raihan is further confused by the mysterious Hanifa. Raihan could only smile with curiosity.
"Then it's enough to get here to our meeting this time. Hopefully at our next meeting I can explain what I mean. Oh yes Raihan... Once go visit your parents they also still miss your presence anyways man also need privacy imagine if Fina can see you who always watch him surely he will hate you. Hahaahaha..." Said Hanifa then turned to walk with a laugh that he deliberately made similar to kuntilanak and then disappeared.
Raihan was frightened but he realized if he was also a ghost then slowly his fear turned into a cuteness for him.
