101. This is a Warning Not a Threat

Since the departure of Galih 2 weeks ago, Kirana always gave news to her husband. Kirana never misses sending pictures, videos, or voice messages to her husband. She was taught not only by her mother but also by her in-laws. Mama and Mama always say that the blessing of the wife a little bit also affects the success of the husband. 

Mr. Aji and Papa Bagus also strengthen it with stories that he often both convey. Both often tell stories if Mama and Mother used to send messages that reinforce. Although the message is as trivial as the face of Kirana who is a brown belebot or Adnan who babbles is not clear as if he was chatting with his monkey doll.

Papa said, hearing the news about the family at home gives a spirit of its own. What else if you are on duty outside, the longing fosters its own motivation. Motivation to always be healthy and safe in order to be reunited with the family at home immediately.

This morning Kirana sent back a photo of Amira wearing her new uniform. A black uniform that became a duplicate of his father's uniform. Amira gives a respectful pose that makes her look very beautiful as well as adorable. Not until Kirana turned off her phone did she see her checkmark turn blue. Kirana smiled plus the inclusion of a video call from Galih a moment later.

“Papa~,” Amira immediately welcomed him happily. She even kept asking for her mother's phone so she could see her Papa's face more clearly.

“For sister, morning Mama,” greet Galih.

“Morning pa...,” replied Kirana and Amira.

“How are you?”

“Papa, yesterday Mimi heard the sound of her heart adek you know. Yesterday my sister accompanied Mama to the doctor,” reported Amira.

“Sound ad Ma?”

“Sehat Pa, thank you. Papa don't worry. Me, brother, I'm fine. While I was staying with Lucy. So I'm not alone,” Kirana said.

“Sgratitude thankfully. Sorry Papa couldn't stay for long. Papa working again, bye Mama, bye sisters,” say goodbye Galih.

Although short but it feels relieved Kirana can see Galih is fine. Because her husband was on duty, Kirana did not dare to ask him for news or even to ask when he came back. Though in his mind was crowded with questions when Galih will come home and can hug him again. Honestly Kirana was as nervous as Galih at the moment. How not, HPL is getting closer but there has been no news when Galih will return home.

Unlike her mother, Kirana actually never turned on the television at all. She deliberately does not know the condition where her husband is on duty to eliminate the thoughts that should not be. He even turned off notifications from his group chats and would only appear there if someone was looking for him.

As the wife of a commander Kirana has the responsibility to be tauladan, it also helps to calm the wives of Galih's men, especially those who served with him. Kirana in addition to having to calm herself is also required to be able to give the spirit of defense to others.

“Kak, let's go,” take Kirana.

Today Kirana accidentally accompanied Amira at her school. The class teacher said that at the end of the semester, Amira and her friends would show something. Today they are going to start training and Amira is coming along. Amira looks good at playing the keyboard and Amira gets compliments from her teacher and classmates.

“Ami learned from a beautiful teacher named Bu Gigi. So now that Gigi mom is already a tantenya Amira,” he told Bu Guru.

“Bu Teeth of his sister Papa ya Amira?” ask the teacher.

“Iya. Miss Gigi is beautiful her sister Papa Amira,” replied Amira with excitement.

Amira is also an adult. He can sometimes help his teacher to condition the class. He also never hesitate to help his friends who have difficulty following learning and playing activities in the classroom. Amira also had a soft but firm voice. He is not spoiled but can still mingle and play with children his age.

Kirana took her phone back out. She recorded Amira while playing the keyboard while singing. The song he sang was simple yet quite awe his friends. There is also a good thing Amira he invited to learn music from an early age. Even when he was just 4 years old he had started mastering basic notes. He even started to learn the score that Kirana just did not understand what it was.

After training at school Kirana and Amira just headed to the cafe. Kirana and Amira first sat down for lunch at a corner table close to the kitchen. Kirana observed Amira finishing her meal as she herself finished her lunch. Every now and then Kirana's hands will come down to rub her big belly and calm the little one whose kicks are getting more painful.

The newlyweds, Ningrum and Keenan came by then and saw Aunt Ningrum coming made Amira welcome him with a raised hand. Ningrum immediately approached and joked with Amira while Kirana looked at him with a smiling face. Admittedly or not the awkwardness between Keenan and Kirana never goes away. It was strange when the ex-lover was reunited with a different status.

Kirana will only try to greet Keenan when a man deliberately sits next to Kirana. The man was wearing the exact same clothes as when he was doing something to Kirana and when he met Kirana some time ago. He seems to deliberately make Kirana remember if she is not clean.

Kirana immediately clasped the spoon tightly in her hand. His chest felt tight all of a sudden and his body began to tremble violently. Plus the little whiz came in contact making his stomach feel pulsating.

Ningrum realized that, as did Amira and Keenan. They started to panic when Kirana no longer responded to their call. Ningrum tried to divert Kirana's mind while Keenan had already taken Amira away. Honestly this new also Keenan saw the perpetrator. In his heart there was still one ember that set him on fire and today it was getting louder and louder.

She hands Kirana over to Ningrum and makes sure Amira is with her new mother Keenan following the man. Keenan deliberately cornered the man. His right arm he used to press the perpetrator's neck against the wall and the other hand he used to hold the perpetrator's body.

“Oh so elo the guy,” said Keenan.

“Hahs. Apparently his ex-girlfriend. Wh why? You don't accept? You want to blame me for your parting with that woman?” ask the perpetrator who deliberately inflated Keenan.

“What else do you want to come here? Still not satisfied you make my life and Kirana destroyed mess ha?!” Keenan is getting harder and harder pressing on the body of the perpetrator.

“Have been a brave cop. Basic son yesterday afternoon.”

“Dare you come again in front of Kirana, not her husband who first killed elo, but me. Camakan,” said Keenan.

Luckily, he remembered his profession. In this environment many knew him and he did not want to hurt the dignity of his profession. So Keenan with a heavy heart had to let go of the perpetrator and let him leave just like that.

Keenan rushed back inside and found Kirana sitting quietly while scratching her arm. Keenan's memory goes back to a few years ago when she felt so down and so guilty about Kirana. Seeing him at this time made Keenan feel claustrophobic and unable to regulate his breathing. Keenan could only sit still.

“Tante, how come Keenan is coming?” asked Amira who was sitting near her mother.

Because Amira said so, Ningrum remembered. It was not only Kirana who was injured due to the incident, but Keenan as well. Ningrum shifted and approached her husband. He grabbed her and asked her to calm down. 

“Akhh..!”
