CLBK (Long Love Hasn't Been Long)

Fathir's Angry

"The Doctor left Lita in pain!" Astrid still harbored some frustration. Her tears trickled down remembering the suffering of her best friend.

"What?! Lita's sick?! Butwhy? When I left last time, Lita was fine." Said Leo.

"Common Doctor where? Why is the phone not active?!" Search Astrid.

Leo remembered. "Ah yeah....That's... That night when I left Lita, I was a little confused by Lita's behavior. Mind fucked. On the way home I pulled over to call Lita again." But Lita didn't answer.

"I put my phone in my pants pocket. But it turns out my phone fell." Obviously Leo.

"Reason!" Ketus Astrid's. "Tomorrow why don't you go see Lita?!"

"I intend to meet Lita in class. But I didn't meet. You have another class, right?" Ask Leo.

Astrid nodded. Last semester Astrid rarely had one class with Lita because Lita took the curriculum for the next semester.

"Actually I saw the Doctor too. I'm gonna ask Lita to the doctor that day. Lita didn't enter the college. But the doctor's been called to the rector's office." Astrid started to soften.

"What's? So Lita's sick? Oh my...!!" Leo grabbed his own hair. "Lita.. Sorry I..."

Astrid still seems confused. "Why didn't the Doctor come to see Lita here if the Doctor's phone went missing? Why did the doctor underestimate Lita's condition? Does Lita mean nothing to the doctor?" Ask Astrid.

Leo sighed.

"Then why did the Doctor betray Lita?!" Astrid became anxious because Leo was silent only a thousand languages.

"I... I'm..." Leo was doubtful. "I never betrayed Lita. I was just having a show. Did Lita see me with another woman?" Leo looked guilty.

"One day before Lita returned to Indonesia, I, Kak Arham, Lita and her parents took me to the Mall. As we were about to eat at the foodcourt Lita's eyes saw the Doctor join hands affectionately with a beautiful woman. It's so pretty." Astrid shed tears again. Astrid remembers Lita trying hard.

"When the last Doctor saw Lita, Lita I met here was sick. I'm not going to the hospital. Until the end of her brother Arham came and forced Lita to the Hospital. Ten days Lita was treated. Inevitably I told Mama and Papa Lita. Because Lita has no one here but me and Brother Arham. While the doctor doesn't care a bit about Lita." Astrid sighed. Throwing tightness and upset in his chest. He longed to hit Leo's bowed head but Arham repeatedly prevented it.

"Kc.... I don't care about Lita... But the duties of the Rector..... Ck... I'm sorry, Sayaaang. I just wanted to surprise you. I didn't know this was gonna happen." Leo is still down. Pulling her own hair.

"You're an adult, Leo. Solve your problems with Lita." Arham began to speak.

"So where did Lita move? Is he coming back to Indonesia? But what about the research?" Leo looked worried. He didn't want Lita to fail because of this misunderstanding.

"I won't tell Lita where it is before the Doctor tells her who it is!" Astrid's Persistent.

"Sorry Astrid. I can't explain it to you and Arham. I'll explain it to Lita. I'm asking for help, tell me where Lita is." Leo hope.

Astrid shakes. "I promised Lita I wouldn't tell you. The doctor will find it for himself." Ketus Astrid while standing up.

"Iamuang... Let's just go... I was hungry. Her taste I want to eat her ass-ass face!" Spoiled Astrid with a slight growl of annoyance.

"I'm sorry Leo, we're saying goodbye." Arham.

Leo just nodded.

After Astrid and Arham, Leo was frustrated. He went to the balcony and opened his cigarette box. Leo's gonna smoke a cigarette again.

"Aaacchhh....!!" Leo slammed a cigarette he just wanted to smoke. "Lita's..... Where are you Sayaang..???!" Leo went into his unit. Ransacking the room Lita once lived in. Maybe there's a lead there.

"Ustad... Yeah Ustadz... Ustadz must know where Lita is." Mumbled Leo.

Leo opened his phone. His old phone is gone. All contact is lost. Leo only kept the rector's number, Papa and his Mama as well as his older brother and Ustadz. Lita and Astrid's numbers are lost with Leo's cell phone missing.

"Assalamu alaikum Ustadz..." Sapa Leo's.

"Ustadz is still in this country?.... Already back??... Okay..."

"It's okay Ustadz. I'm just worried about Lita.... In Sumatra? So Lita in Sumatra? Oh Research there... Yes Ustadz... Thank you.... Assalamu...." Leo hung up his phone.

Leo sighed. "Why do you have to go all the way to Sumatra Lita? I intend to help your research here... Lita...."

FLASHBACK OFF

__________________________

"I've reminded you, Leo! Don't ever hurt my sister!!" Fathir cannot hold back his anger. He's choking Leo's shirt neck.

Atala was already holding onto Fathir's body who wanted to give Leo a raw bokem. While Tia was already hysterical because suddenly Fathir who could not hold back his emotions.

Ustadz Joey mediates. Lambok hugged Tia who was gone. Vita helps her Papa calm her Mama.

"Propat Fathir.... Istighfar.... Let Leo explain this. This misunderstanding..." Ustadz said Joey wisely full of patience.

"Yes... Keep that emotion...." Joanna hugged Fathir. A little pushed him to sit down after Atala managed to release Fathir's check on Leo.

"I never meant to hurt Lita... All this is misunderstanding. I was being rash. I should have explained everything to Lita. But the Rector's sudden request couldn't get me to see Lita." Leo began to explain.

"Bullshiiittsss..!"'s search....!" Shouted Fathir.

"Fathiii.hrr...." Tegur Ustadz Joey's.

"Why did Ustadz defend Leo?! Leo was wrong. Leo betrayed my brother... The brother I always look after!" Fathir is still very emotional. When it comes to Lita, Fathir is very sensitive.

Sometimes Farah, Fathir's younger brother feels jealous, because the Brother who is more attentive to Lita Ketibang Herself.

"Ustadz did not defend Leo. But please... Listen to Leo's explanation. Why are you this?? Istighfar!" Ustadz Joey Fathir's In-law.

"The Chancellor asked me to treat his cancer-stricken niece. Her lover abandoned her after finding out she had cancer. Since then he has no spirit. Said the Rector, My face is almost similar to that of his nephew's lover. That's why I'm in make over like I'm that woman's lover. Until the End He wants to be persuaded to seek treatment. Some time, he did recover and asked me to take him to the Mall, when Om Lambok, Aunt Tia and Lita saw me at the Mall, I was with him. I just wanted to give him some spirit, though fate says something else." Leo explained.

"After two days from the Mall, his condition dropped. Until the end of it, he could no longer endure the pain. But lastly He said to me, If he's happy for the end of his life. And He also knows that I'm Leo, not his girlfriend..." Leo's down. There's regret in Leo's heart.

Regret not being able to help the patient. "Since then I realized, it turns out the age of someone does not know until when. I immediately contacted Papa and met Ustadz Joey to study the Islamic religion." Leo sighed. The tears shed no power to resist the fear of the Punishment of God.

"My intention was to go back to my apartment to surprise Lita and propose to her. I want to marry her soon. But it's all too late. Lita's gone and back to Vero." Leo grabbed his own hair.
