CLBK (Long Love Hasn't Been Long)

Bifurcated

"Why did you just leave me?" Ask Vero when he arrives at the park.

The morning sun hit Vero's pale body. Lita did it intentionally. Natural vitamin D is needed by Vero.

Lita put the brakes on Vero's wheelchair. Lita sits on a park bench facing Vero. Lita clasped Vero's hand.

"I love you so much, then and until now." Said Vero again.

"Baaa...." Lita feels bad.

"If there's no hope for me to come back to you, why am I healthy?!" Vero turned his face away from Lita's gaze.

Lita finally crouched down. Subdues his head. Lita was completely confused by this situation. His intention to solve his problem with Vero instead found Vero seriously ill.

As a Prospective Doctor, Lita could not break the spirit of her patients.

"I've never been angry with you. I left because I got a call from State Campus J." Said Lita.

"But why don't you say goodbye to me..." Vero was disappointed.

"Baaa... That time... I don't want to hurt my best friend, nor Grandma Dinda." Lita tried to give Vero some understanding.

"Now Grandma is no more. There is no more barrier for us." Ketus Vero's.

Lita smiled bitterly. How could Lita receive Vero again if in the realm of Baqa the Grandmother never riddho.

Vero raised his hand and raised Lita's chin. "Is it because now that I'm sick, you don't like me anymore?" Vero seeks love in the eyes of Lita but nil.

"Do you want a promise?" Ask Lita.

"What promise?" Ask Vero slowly.

"The promise must be healthy. How can you love me if you don't want to be healthy? Would you leave me languish here?" Finally the words that came out of Lita's mouth though all for the good of Vero.

Vero hugged Lita's head. "Abang your darling. I promise I will fight this disease for you. Brother won't leave you again..." Vero's eyes glazed over.

From a distance a pair of eyes stared jealously at that hug scene. He saw Vero kiss Lita's head covered in a hijab. He took off a rose in his hand to the ground. His body turned. His intention of meeting Lita was dashed.

_______________________

Every day He comes. Seeing Lita from a distance was so attentive to Vero. He's been figuring out who the patient is with Lita.

Today is the same. Lita looks happy to talk to Vero. Sometimes Vero kissed Lita's palm. And Lita looks embarrassed.

His molars growled holding back anger. But as much as possible he could endure. He still continued to search for information about Lita and her patients.

"Pantes alone He did not conduct Research at J State Hospital! This is the reason he came home!" His murmur held back the anger. He squeezed out a single rose without caring about his palm being stuck in thorns.

"All women are the same! Traitor and unfaithful!" He slammed the rose on the ground and left the Hospital with a burning jealousy.

He drove his vehicle at high speed to the hotel where he was staying. It's been a few days now that he's in Sumatra looking for Lita's whereabouts. He recalled that his Uncle Lita had this Cancer and Nervous Hospital in Sumatra.

He easily found the Hospital and sure enough, he easily found Lita there.

Arrive in the hotel room.

"Aacchhh!!! Lita...!! Why did you betray me?! Whyyy?! It's hard for me to resist my urge not to touch you." She pulled her own hair.

"You want me to convert, right?! I do it though it's heavy....But now... You betrayed me..!!" Leo slammed the glass in front of him.

"You're just like Bella..! Traitor! What good is Vero?! The sickness!" Leo is hysterical.

"Yes Allah... I've just become your servant... But why this ordeal you gave me?! What's wrong?!" Leo looked.

"Assalamu aleikum Ustadz...."

"Good... I'll fly there soon..."

"Assalamu..." Leo turned off his phone.

Leo immediately packed his things. Calling the airport booking tickets to Jogja.

"It's impossible...." Ustadz Joey smiled as he shook his head. "Maybe you saw it wrong. Or you misunderstood, son." Ustadz Joey.

Leo squeezed his hair. "I see with my own eyes. Lita is happy with Vero. While being touched by me alone, Lita did not want to. But same Vero....." Leo did not continue his words.

Ustadz Joey stroked Leo's shoulder. "Patience Nak... Lita can't be like that. Ustadz knew Ustadz's nephew. Maybe Lita is treating Vero or encouraging Vero. Istighfar Nak...." Advice Ustadz Joey.

Leo raised his head. "Are Ustadz sure Lita wasn't betraying me?" Leo stared fixedly at Ustadz Joey's eyes.

Ustadz Joey nodded. Ustadz asked Dr. Marcel. "You calm yourself. The science that Ustadz taught you. You want Lita to be happy, right? You don't want Lita to get sick anymore, do you?"

Leo nodded. But still can not accept given the treatment of Lita to Vero.

FLASHBACKS

Leo walked excitedly towards his apartment room unit. She misses Lita very much.

Several times Leo knocked on the door of his unit but there was no answer. "Isn't Lita this early in the morning still in the unit. Why so quiet? Is he not awake yet? But no way, Lita always woke up early. Or maybe...." Anxiety is seen on Leo's face.

Hurriedly Leo opened his unit. Leo is worried that something will happen to Lita. It's been two months since Leo stepped away from Lita. That's what Leo did to keep his passion.

Leo wanted to surprise Lita. Leo wants to propose to Lita as his wife. Meet the requirements of Lita.

"I'm good....!" Leo called Lita. Leo hurried to find Lita in the room, but Leo found the room empty. Lita's stuff wasn't there.

"Assalamu....Lita... Are you back?!" Suddenly a familiar voice for Leo was heard from the front of the unit. Leo rushed out.

"Wa aleikumussalaam's....Astrid's.. Arham. Let's go in." Bring Leo.

Astrid and Arham were slightly surprised to hear Leo's reply. Astrid looked at Arham, Arham nodded. Finally they obey Leo's will to enter his unit.

Astrid looks upset. Astrid is still angry at Leo for betraying her best friend. Astrid thinks Lita's back in Leo's unit because the door is open a little.

"Where have the Doctors been all this time? Are you tired of playing girls and looking for Lita again! Want to hurt Lita again?! Want to make Lita sick again?! Are you not satisfied?!" Astrid could not hold back her anger anymore. Congenital understanding of Pregnant women. His emotions are out of control.

"I'm who...." Arham stroked Astrid's arm. "Remember your emotions. Remember our baby."

Leo rushes to the pantry to fetch the bottled mineral water that is always available in his unit. Leo thrusts at Astrid and Arham. "Drink..."

Leo could not bear to see Astrid who was pregnant, her stomach was already visible distended. Leo sighed holding back his emotions.

"What do you mean Strid? Who's playing girls?" Leo was confused. "Where's Lita? Why isn't his stuff there?" Questions from Leo.

"Doctor pretended, right?! Doctor don't get much drama!" Astrid's emotions still couldn't go down.

Arham hugged the wife's body. He doesn't want Astrid to do anything. "Istighfar Darling... I know you're upset with Leo. But let Leo explain first. Don't follow your emotions. Remember your baby's health." Arham reminded Astrid.

"Astaghfirullaahis..... Achaghfirullaah's chat..."

Arham thrust mineral water on Astrid to make Astrid calmer.
