Bride Shadow

Unself

"Who loved the Eagle from long ago? who?" mitha's question even made everyone surprised. The awkward-looking eagle immediately cleared his throat to eliminate his nervousness. Leo and Bian immediately put on an expression of not knowing anything and as if nothing had happened. If the man just behaved unwillingly to discuss it, how could they possibly be presumptuous to say something that was not his intention to talk about? Sassy!

"Sister?" buru Mitha was on everyone with a burning curiosity.

"Ehmmm.It's better that I go inside, it looks like Sarah's awake." Leo who happened to glance at the glass door was like getting a fresh wind because he saw Gea approaching Zahra who seemed to move. Everyone turns to her and moves in with Leo's steps into her treatment room.

"Mitha.." Zahra's weak voice made Mitha approach and hold her best friend's hand. Her tears are puffing. Really, seeing Zahra as she is now must have made herself also Gea feel her pain. Meanwhile, Bian restrains Leo's approaching body. It's too soon if they tell the truth when Zahra has just woken up from the influence of drugs. Let their youngest brother relax for a moment.

"What do you feel now Za?" mitha asked carefully. Zahra's pale lips smiled.

"I'm good Mith, thanks for being there for me." Serempak Gea and Mitha tightly embraced Zahra's weak body. Surprisingly they laughed together, like a kid who just won a team game.

"If it heals quickly. We promise you we'll play to your place Za." The jolly Gea was even excited to entertain the friend. They talked to each other until Bian got closer.

"Sarah amelia aszahra." call Bian until Zahra turns. Not many know his full name, which makes him surprised is Bian who note bane not too close to him even mention his name correctly.

"I.iya sir." Suddenly Mitha moved, giving Bian and Leo space to get closer.

"Do you know him?" Leo took out a picture of a young woman who, if seen at first glance, looked very much like her from her bag. Zahra's eyes are breaking.

"Mother.." he sighed softly. Leo and Bian nodded along with glazed eyes. Their guess is correct, Zahra is the missing sister.

"Sir Leo..where does Mr. Leo have a picture of my mother?" Gea immediately helped Zahra who seemed to want to sit by raising her bed rest until her best friend was quite comfortable. Her frail hand trembled taking the photo from Leo's hand and kissing it, clutching it in the chest. Her tears fell.

"Mother.." call her soft among the restrained sobs. Heart's plump.

"Do you still not know me?" this time Zahra's eyes looked up, trying to remember who the man who had brought his mother was. But the result remains the same. He remains the Leo he knew often visited Abimana's residence because he was his adopted son. Besides, he doesn't remember anything. Zahra shook her head with a confused look. Leo took his breath in. Again and again he pulled two photos from his bag and handed them to Zahra.

"Sir Ahmad.." breath of relief simultaneously blew from the chest cavity of everyone who was there.

"That's me...." Soft Bian. Grasping Zahra fingers that are still gawking confused.

"I'm Ahmad Nabihan your brother Za."

"Sister??" repeat Zahra can't believe it. Bian nodded.

"You're our sister. This is Lukman's sister, our mother...Fatimah was already dead when the tsunami hit Za. You know, for years Mr. Abi has been looking for you until we grew up. Where have you been, Za?" Zahra still sobbed, but her memory had been thrown in childhood which dragged her into an orphanage in Banda Aceh. One of the volunteers who will return to Jakarta and adopt him after knowing all his family died according to reports. The volunteer's family raised him affectionately because his wife was not able to have children. Until Zahra went to school in High School. Unfortunately, undeniably, the profits are unachievable, they are in a continuous accident when Zahra enters the first semester of the nursing academy. From the savings of his adoptive parents that he can continue school even though he was kicked out of the house by his family. Fortunately, her adoptive mother, who seemed to have a premonition, gave up her gold and savings for Zahra to guard when she and her husband would travel on the fateful day that claimed their lives.

"Those who help me are gone.I am alone." Bian who knew his sister again grieved considering that his adoptive parents immediately embraced him.

"Have Za, pray for them to have the best place by His side. From now on you are not alone. There's me and Lukman's brother who'll take care of you." Bian stroked his sister's shoulder lovingly. Lukman just patted his shoulder slowly, happy too.

"Only I have no one else in this world" Mitha said softly like a complaint. The eagle standing near him, of course, heard his wife's words, even though she was shriveled. Not wanting to disturb Zahra's moment of happiness, he slowly pulled his wife out of the room and pressed her against the wall of the deserted hospital hallway.

"Mas..why?" Mitha was certainly surprised because of the behavior of her husband who suddenly took her out.

"What did you say? you said you didn't have anyone?" asked the Eagle full of intimidation. Mitha lowered her head, feeling guilty.

"I mean, they all have parents or brothers, sisters or brothers, while I'm alone." Mitha said she thought she was an only child when her parents died. His face changed softly. The eagle grabbed her chin, slightly forcing her to look at him.

"Did you forget that your father and mother were not only your father-in-law but also your mother's father? I'm also your husband and sister, baby. You're never alone and I won't leave you alone. I will always accompany you until death do us part Paramitha the daughter of pratama Abimana." sizzled the Eagle before pecking at his wife's sweet lips.
