Destiny Syakila
eps 107s
On the way to the mall in the city of S.
”Kakak, I did not expect big brother will come here for sak Sardin.” said Hardin began the conversation to expel the sense of silence. ”What sister-in-law knows brother's intention to come here for what?”
”Why didn't you tell me about Sardin's accident?”
Syakila does not answer Hardin's questions, but avoids telling his personal relationship to Jaka or anyone else, even if it is his own family.
”Sorry, sister, mom forbid me to tell that to brother. Mama said, sister no longer entitled to know the state of Sardin's sister, because the sister already has a husband.” said Hardin
Syakila fell silent, she let out a rough sigh.
...It turned out that my guess was right, mama forbade them to tell me about Sardin's situation. I know your intentions are good, but you don't know what really happened between me and Geo. I don't want after I part with Geo, then Sardin has become his. And I won't let that happen, Sardin was mine since childhood....
”Didn't sister tell you, whatever, whoever forbids you, you should still tell me about Sardin!?” voice rising.
”Sorry, brother, don't be mad at me. I can't say anything, brother, have me in the same confiscation mama, so I didn't tell kak Sardin's condition to brother.”
”Can't you borrow another phone to tell your sister?”
”Hapeya others also seized the same mama. Only the hapeen of Fatma's brother was not confiscated. But, I can't possibly borrow sister's phone, while brother also forbids me to tell brother about Sardin.”
”Already, now brother is here. You do not tell your sister Fatma and mom also om, and aunt about the purpose of the brother who actually came to this city.”
”Iya, sis. But, what do you think my sister wouldn't suspect about that? And will sister-in-law not tell me your purpose for coming to this city to mama?”
”Not going, Geo..not going to talk about it to mama, aunty, and om. To be suspicious.mama must be suspicious, we can not hide anything from mama. But, mama will not talk about it directly if you will not talk softly in front of mama, aunt, and om. Do you understand?!”
”Yes, sis, I understand!”
Now they are back silent. Jaka turned his bike to the left bow and they had arrived at the mall on the way. Jaka parked his motorbike in the parking lot of the mall. Jaka and Syakila enter the mall.
”Sister, we find shoes for me first yes.” bargain Hardin.
”Iya,”
They climbed the second floor of the mall using an escalator and walked towards the sale of shoes when they arrived on the second floor. Hardin was picking shoes that he liked.
”Which is good, brother?”
”What color do you want?”
”Dark red and navy blue.”
”You take navy black and blue sneaker aja deh.”
”Ok, as you say.” said Hardin while winking one eye and smiling at Syakila.
”Apaan s hell blink eyes all!” syakila said as she swept Hardin's face. ”Already, let's pay now and find a full outfit for Geo, just let's go home.”
”Ok,”
The two of them walked together towards the cashier. After Syakila paid for Hardin's shoes, the two of them were now in a men's clothing store. Syakila seemed serious about choosing clothes that were roughly compatible with Geo.
Syakila saw some shirts and short shirts that he liked, he took some of the shirts and shirts with three colors, navy blue, maroon red, and white. He also bought a black Zipper jacket, and a Hoodie Zipper Sweater in navy blue and Black. After choosing clothes, he bought long pants and short underwear for Geo.
After he finished buying clothes, he switched to the lower floor to buy Geo bathing needs. He bought all Geo toiletries according to the products used by Geo in the city of A. After all was bought, they came out of the mall.
Hardin pulled the motor out of the parking lot, while Syakila, he waited for Hardin on the big road.
”Syakila,” greet someone from behind Syakila. I looked up, saw who greeted him.
Syakila was surprised and happy, ”Teacher,” said with a smile.
The teacher smiled. ”It turns out my guess was right, you're Syakila. How are you doing? Why haven't you come to see me in months? Who are you waiting for?”
”Sorry, Master, Syakila have been in another city for a few months now. Syakila was fine, as Master saw, I met Master to say goodbye before going to A city, but, Syakila did not find Master in the training ground. Syakila also did not find Master in Guru's house, they said Guru was out of town. I'm here waiting for my sister, Jaka.” Syakila said.
The teacher sighed, ”Iya, I am indeed out of town and after coming to teach back, one of my students is missing. I looked for you and found you at the karate scene, but, you don't exist either. In your home too you are not.”
Syakila surprised, ”What? Teacher looking for me at karate's place? And at home? What is Teacher looking for me for?”
The teacher laughed, ”I bought you a green jade bracelet. I was looking for you to give it to you, but, you don't exist and I heard you were married.” he explained. At the end of his speech he felt sad and smiled wryly.
”Ah, I think Master is very excessive in paying attention to me. Yes, I'm married. Teacher, Master once healed a man who was almost paralyzed. Can Master help me heal someone who is paralyzed as well?”
Hardin deliberately waited for Syakila who was talking to her teacher behind them.
The teacher smiled again, ”Congratulations for your wedding. To cure.I also do not know what not! But, you just take her to see me, after I see how she is, then I act. All right, we talked too long, I went home first.”
”Alright, be careful, Guru.” Syakila said.
”Hum, I'm waiting for you at home and bring your husband too, I want to meet and see him.”
Syakila smile, ”Good, Master.”
The teacher left Syakila.
Syakila, as long as you become my martial arts student, I always pay excessive attention to you. Don't you realize my heart's intent on liking you? After I heard you got married, I kept this feeling for me. May you be happy with your husband.
Hardin approached Syakila who was still looking at the back of his teacher who had left.
”Sister, let's go up, we go home now!” said it.
”Iya,”
Syakila riding on the motorbike, Hardin runs his motorbike at medium speed towards home. During the trip, neither Syakila nor Jaka engaged in conversation. Syakila was deep in her own thoughts. He recalls how much attention his teacher paid to him. The teacher is always in distress in nature, the teacher also always treat him to eat and treat Syakila wounds if he is injured. After a woman who envied the teacher's excessive attention to her, Syakila came out of there, she switched to taking karate.
Teacher, I know that teacher likes me, even then I know from Risna, your sister. I'm sorry Master, I can't get your attention and your affection that exceeds the affection between teacher and student. Other than me waiting for Sardin, there is someone who loves Master sincerely, can't Master see the girl? She always looked up to Master, she also came up to me often and told me about her jealousy when Master approached me. Sorry, as long as I am your student, I often make it difficult for Master. Hemp, it's good that Master has come back in this city, I will bring Geo to meet with Master to be treated. May Master heal Geo's legs.
Hardin stopped the motorbike right in the parking lot of his house. Syakila got off the bike, she stepped into the house while holding her own groceries. Hardin caught up with Syakila while holding her groceries as well.
”Wa 'alaikum salam,” say they are all inside the house.
Hardin and Syakila slapped the backs of their mama, om, and aunt. Then the two of them sat down beside Sarmi, his mother.
”What have you two bought?” ask Sarmi.
”I only buy Geo needs, Mah. We didn't come here with a suitcase of clothes, so, I bought him clothes to wear during our stay.” Syakila said.
”I only buy shoes, Mah.” said Hardin
”You didn't buy something to eat like that? The fruit? Or cake?” ask Biah, their aunt.
”Em, sorry, Aunty. We didn't think of it.” said Syakila, he saw Hardin. ”Dek, you come out again there, buy us fruit and cake, here's the money.”
Syakila gave Hardin 100 thousand. Hardin took the money while standing up.
”No need, we're going to dinner. Your brother's already cooking.” prevent Johan.
Hardin sat back down. ”Then, this money is for me yes kak.” he said.
”Can't! Give me back my money!” sahut Syakila instantaneously.
Hardin returned Syakila's money while pouting. Syakila took the money and put it back in her wallet.
”Mama, Aunty, Om, Syakila go to the room first.” say Syakila.
”Iya,” sahut them.
Syakila stood up and stepped into her room. Johan and Biah smiled, however, his eyes opened to see Syakila's back disappearing from his sight. So did Sarmi, they seemed to feel sad.
” Didn't expect Syakila to be able to adapt to her new family which is really foreign to her. She appreciates her husband who has flaws. Do you think Syakila is happy, Sarmi?” biah.
Sarmi smiled, however, a forced smile. ”A mother only prays for happiness for her child, may she be happy in living her household.” she said firmly, however, her voice trembled, as if holding back tears.
During Syakila's departure to the city of A, it was only that question that enveloped Sarmi's heart and mind. Is Syakila happy there? Is Syakila really happy? Can Geo please Syakila? The question always stops to disturb the peace and mind of Sarmi every day.
The love story that Syakila lived is more or less than her own love story, the difference is Halim, her husband is the perfect man while Geo, Syakila's husband is a disabled man, who stands alone can not afford.
Sometimes tears fall down her cheeks if you think about it. Sarmi strengthens his heart and soul by praying that his son, Syakila, will get his happiness.
Biah could see a pile of sadness in the eye of Sarmi. He understood Sarmi's feelings very well at this time.
”You are right, praying for Syakila's happiness is the most important point.” he said with a smile caressing Sarmi's back.
Sarmi turned his head, saw Biah, he smiled and nodded.
.. ..
In Syakila's room.
Syakila kept Geo's clothes in decorative table chairs, and Geo's toiletries, she kept them in the bathroom. He approached Geo who had woken up, not since when.
”Geo, are you awake?” tanyanya gently.
”I woke up from an hour ago.” Geo said flatly.
”Sorry, I just saw you, I just came home from shopping with my sister. I bought you some clothes, do you want to take a shower now?”
Geo looked at Syakila sharply and shriveled.
Did he buy me clothes with Sardin's money? This woman, why can't I keep my feelings that my status is her husband? Why wouldn't he use my money a penny? In fact, I was her husband, and she was perfectly natural to spend my money as a wife.
Syakila was surprised by Geo's sharp gaze. ”What's up? Why look at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?”
”It's okay, I want to take a shower now.” Geo said flatly and held back anger.
Without speaking again, Syakila helped Geo take a bath. After finishing the bath, Syakila took a set of clothes that she bought to wear to Geo. With a gloomy face, Geo was forced to wear the clothes Syakila had bought for him. Syakila looked at Geo with a happy smile, as the choice was perfect for Geo.
This dress is perfect for his body! His white skin shines with this color, if he were perfect, if he walked in a shirt like this that showed the sexiness of his body, and his muscles are stocky, girls would be fascinated and captivated by him.
Geo smiled happily inwardly. Syakila looked at him without a blink.
”Am I so handsome? Why look at me without blinking? I'm your husband, my body is yours!” he said tease Syakila.
Syakila berdekhem when he woke up after hearing Geo's words.
”Em, Geo, tomorrow we will go to the hospital to visit Sardin.”, he said, switching Geo's conversation.
Geo was silent looking at Syakila, not knowing what was on his mind right now. Perhaps, his mind was thinking about Syakila's words just now. Or maybe he thought of something else. To be clear, his mind was thinking something bad about Syakila for her speech.
”Sister, sister-in-law, mom calls to eat.”
Syakila and Geo looked towards the closed door. They both heard Yuli's voice from behind the door.
”Iya,” Sayakila.
He and Geo looked at each other again. ”Kuta out eat now,” Syakila said.
Geo nodded. Syakila pushed Geo's wheelchair out of the room and into the kitchen. They all gathered at the dinner table. Each had scooped up his own food.
Syakila scoops food for Geo.
”Thank you, dear.” said Geo.
Deg deg deg heartbeat Syakila, he was shocked in silence over Geo's speech. He glanced at all the members of his family, they were smiling little while looking at him.
Shakila became embarrassed, she scooped food for herself and sat down to eat while looking down and speechless.
