As Strong as the Mentari, as Soft as the Moon

As Strong as the Mentari, as Soft as the Moon
Episode 31's. Fathering...



I sat pensively. From behind the checkout table my eyes are relentlessly circling the entire store that began to be crowded in visit. The blind rain did not reduce the interest of visitors for the availability of cakes in our store. Thank God I am relentless in all that has been given.


Two o'clock four minutes. Almost an hour of earth is raining. But there are no signs it will end. Visitors were also trapped in the store. Standing next to the glass wall next to the door. Almost all stared anxiously. "If there's anything I can do." I muttered while staring at the rows of visitors in the store.


"Mbak Mar, cook hot water one big pot how long?" I whispered to Mbak Mar, one of the clerks at the store. "If re-cooking ten minutes is also boiling again, mbak. Why, Mbak Fara?" mbak Mar. "Then info info to the kitchen to make tea. It's ten minutes for twenty-five people" I said, who was greeted by Mar with a smile. She was so quick with the task I gave her.


Ten minutes passed. The tea is ready complete with pieces of brownies that have been arranged on a serving plate. "Serve.." I said to some of the officers. "Well.free nieh, Mbak Fara?" asked a mother who was smiling and looking at me. "Free, Mom. Please enjoy" I said smiling sumringah. "Mbak Fara and Kun shop are champions." said another. I smiled at every compliment. "Hopefully can reduce saturation and be able to warm the atmosphere" I said softly with a smile. My eyes were ceaselessly staring at the frenzy that was going on. It was simple, but enough to make me smile.


"Mbak Fara is a Champion. Champion in my heart.." whispered a voice near my ear that certainly surprised me. Immediately I turned my gaze to the source of the voice. "Sister Mirza....!" I said half a scream that was immediately greeted with a swipe at the tip of my head. "Since when?" my many. "For a long time I have loved you." said Mirza, smiling. "Gombal.." I said while chuckling. While my hand was engrossed in cutting the brownies into pieces. "Serve.." I said to one of the officers. "Since I've noticed the atmosphere of the store has turned into a cafe?" said brother Mirza. "Just try to give the customer a little comfort. But honestly it was Fara's wish. Extend effort. Try to imagine under the cake shop above the cafe. How's it?" I said with sparkling eyes. "I think good idea, honey." said brother Mirza while also enjoying warm tea and snacks. "Em, which father?" ask Mirza again. "To KUA.." I said briefly. Mirza was short. "When are we, yank...?" said brother Mirza. His eyes looked at me with a smile as if looking for an answer to his question earlier. "Em, after my father and Aunt Vira yes." I whispered while making a purchase note. "Because of the rain, I bought another cake" said one mother laughing while receiving change. I chuckle at hearing it. "Thank you Ma'am. Blessed and healthy always.." I said smiling sumringah while nodding reverently. "Alhamdulillah, finally there is clarity as well" said Mirza. "What...?" ask me briefly. "When we got married." said Mirza. His hand pinched my nose. I laughed a little while looking down.


Three o'clock past twenty minutes. The rain is starting to stop. Visitors began to leave the store. "thank you. Somoga pleases." I said as the visitors left the shop. Of course with my typical smile that unravels. "May you please." said Mirza, who was suddenly behind me. He was standing not far from me. He looked at me while breaking his smile. The smile that always managed to make my heart rhythm erratic. Meanwhile, his hand held a white flower that was my favorite color. "O.so sweet" said all the store employees almost simultaneously. "The one who wants to marry the father, but the flower mbak Fara.." said mbak Mar and greeted other cheers. Me and Mirza were laughing.


"Thank you, yeah. I've always been flattered by all of Brother's treatment. Thank you very much" I said as I walked along. Ah, I can't describe how it felt in the soul back then. But with an erratic rhythmic heartbeat, it was enough for me to make sure that something was going on, that I was happy. Happy because you always feel happy.


Three o'clock past forty minutes. My phone shimmered a little bit to my surprise. A call from Aunt Vira. "Yes, Auntie.." I said. But not yet finished my greeting, I was already shocked by her crying. Something must have happened. "What's up, Auntie.." I worried a little hard and surprised the others. "Your father's hurt. Now it's hospital X" said Aunt Vira, who left me strangled. I'm upset. "Dad.." I said softly. Immediately I tidied up some of my needs and immediately pulled Mirza out of the store to the hospital in question. And I assign responsibility to mbak Mar for the care of the store.


My tears began to wet part of my face. "Come on, baby.calm yourself. We don't know the real condition of Dad. So do not argue excessively first" said Mirza who tried to calm myself with eyes that remain focused on the pace of his silver sports car on the road that still looks wet because of the rain earlier. Hearing the words of Mirza I also tried hard to control the great worries that were turbulent in the soul. Concern about father's condition. My mind was glaring and constantly guessing who did the harm to my father.


Shortly after, we entered hospital X according to the direction of Aunt Vira. "Bang David.." call me at a glance to see his figure. And the one who was called finally approached with his special smile. "Your father is fine. The critical period is over" said bang David when he stood right in front of me. He looked at me with a smile and rubbed my head slowly. I want to feel like I'm squandering and venting this cry of mine. "Thank you, bang.." I said to the man who once gave me that hope and protection. Seeing the situation, Mirza also rubbed my arms and took me to the care room of my father. His eyes are looking at me. There is jealousy there. In both beads his eyes are relentlessly watching the look of my face and my face and bang David.


Worried by any argument, I immediately set foot down the hallway while tightly hugging Mirza's arm. "Hunter.."I said teasing Mirza's sister. "Who...?" said Mirza Brief. "Cat.." I answered just. He also laughed. Shortly down the hall, we arrived at my father's treatment room. And it was Aunt Virah who greeted us with her cries. "Fara.." said Aunt Fara while hugging me. "How's dad doing?" tanyaku who immediately rushed and approached the bed where the father was while still embracing Aunt Vira. This is proof of my closeness to Aunt Vira. The figure of a good woman and has succeeded in making the father happy. The figure of the woman who soon became my mother.


Aunty Vira Flashback On


At that time Satria (a bodyguard ordered by Mirza to provide escort to Fara and family) was authorized to go to the toilet. While waiting for Satria we stepped slowly and chose to stand near the escalator. My eyes circled around the crowded shop. Not tucked into the slightest suspicion as a burly man approached the feet. I see that Permana bang is ordinary. No reaction whatsoever or turn wary of his attitude to the presence of the burly man. And not to mention aware of the situation was the man took a dagger from behind his black jacket. He also directly attacked the Permana bang which immediately reflexes avoid it even though not at all. Because it turns out the dagger managed to tear the body of the Permana bang. I was hiateris especially when I saw the blood spout coming out of the wound on the stomach bang Permana. Not only me, but there were many pairs of eyes that witnessed it also reacted in panic. Lucky Satria quickly came. Quickly he served the game of the burly man's style. While Bang Permana sat on the other side while holding a wound that continues to bleed. I also directly gripped the wounds bang Permana. I couldn't cry watching the man who was about to marry me get helplessly hurt.


Two o'clock five minutes. I still hold the body of bang Permana. While Satria managed to subdue the perpetrator and leave it to security for the next process in the police. Then we brought the Permana bang to hospital X to get help immediately.


Aunty Vira Flashback Off


I was silent to Aunt Vira's words. My eyes glazed over and my lips trembled holding back the pain. "Is this the work of Darius? Because all this time he's been the one who's always messing with our lives?" I said lirih. An arm grabbed me and made his chest the back of my head. "Calm down, dear.." whispered Mirza as she occasionally rubbed the shoots of my head that had fallen on the chest of her field.


Eight o'clock is forty minutes. Bang Pandu has just entered by bringing drugs from the appropriate dispensary that has been prescribed. "I'm sorry, sir. I failed to take care of Mr. Permana. I'm not alert" Satria said guiltily as she met Mirza's sister. "That's it." said Mirza, patting Satria on the shoulder. Not much was said of Mirza at the time. He just looked at me inside and broke down a smile.


Then later heard brother Mirza talking with bang Pandu and Satria. All three are so serious. It was clearly visible on his face. "Sorry, Sir. Had the master told the Madam about.." said bang Pandu stopped when he saw the hand gesture of Mirza's brother. "Is this the work of the man called Lord Darius?" said Satria who made sister Mirza and bang Pandu look. "I'm not sure. If Darius' obsession alone is so great as to have Fara, then I'm sure he's not the culprit. For what may a loving person be able to hurt him." said sister Mirza who again looked at me. I don't know why in his gaze I saw the extreme anxiety. I wanted to ask but what my power was, my courage was defeated my disdain for him.


Ten o'clock past ten minutes. I'm still in dad's treatment room. My head fell on the shoulder of Mirza's brother. My eyes were closed even though it was not yet sound when my phone shimmered. "Darius.." I said in my heart because the luminescence came from my other phone.


Deg.


Worried about misunderstanding, then I gave it to sister Mirza. He also immediately responded to the contents of the message that adorns the phone screen. He carefully read every row of letters. Not to mention I read it, Mirza actually pocketed the phone. Keep it behind his jacket. I just shut up. Perhaps according to Mirza, it is not important that I know it so that he immediately keeps it. "It's okay...I'm sure it's for my own good" I said in my heart. "This phone was thrown away. It is no longer needed" he said with a faint smile. I nodded and closed my eyes again. This time I leaned on the sofa in the corner.
