Destiny Syakila
eps 209s
In the plane.
The plane has been flying since thirty minutes ago. Geo chose a slightly large private plane because his room had three rooms. It was fitting for the three of them to rest in a separate room.
Syakila's room is in the middle. Sardin front and Geo, choose the one behind.
Now Sardin and Syakila were in front of Syakila's room. Geo himself wanted to join, however, he did not want to be a mosquito repellent for Syakila and Sardin. So, he retreated his steps.
He sat alone leaning against the wall that was to be the separation of his room space and Syakila. However, from there, he could hear the conversation of Sardin and Syakila.
”Why does your face pout constantly looking at brother?” ask Sardin. He pinched the soft nose of Syakila.
”No debt explained to me.” Syakila said. From her voice the woman was still upset.
Sardin laughed, ”You're still the same. Ok, brother will explain. Actually, uncle and I did want to buy a passenger ticket. But when Geo found out we were going to take off on a passenger plane, he prevented us. He also wants to go to S city with us. He doesn't want to go alone.”
Sardin paused his words.
”So, without hesitation uncle, and I agree. And I also represent uncle, apologizing for not talking to you in the beginning. We were afraid you would refuse, so..”.
”Already, no need to continue. Kila already understood.” trim Syakila.
”His sister is indeed smart and understanding. Umh...what made you unable to sleep last night, and again not eat? Sister is still angry with you about that.”
”No need Syakila explain clearly. My brother would not be happy to hear it. In my opinion, brother knows better what reason makes Kila like that.”
Sardin was silent for a moment. Then, he smiled wryly while sighing. ”You still haven't received Geo's decision, divorced you?” he looked at Syakila seriously.
Deg deg! Syakila and Geo's current heart rate. Geo was pounding waiting for Syakila's answer.
”Still need time to organize my heart.” Syakila paused her speech. ”Why didn't she file for divorce back then, when I didn't have a taste for her yet. And when I asked for a divorce. She purposely held me back, made me fall in love with her, then, she dumped me.”
Geo swallowed his saliva with tightness. Does that mean Syakila really loves her now? Then, why didn't he defend himself like he was defending Sardin, by his side? Is it true just because the word ”Janji?” who made Syakila defend Sardin? And because of the word ” Promise?” also that made Syakila accept Geo's decision? Geo was very curious about it.
”If he doesn't divorce you, what do you do if you remember our promise?” ask Sardin again.
”Maybe it will stay the same. I can't just ignore the promise. At first I was selfish not to divorce him. But, I also can't ignore my feelings for my sister as well as our promise. Anyway, Geo divorced me when I was unconscious.”
”Since when did you love her?”
”Do not know. But, I think that's what I realized on the night of the attack. That night, I. did not want anything to happen to Geo.” Syakila replied.
”If that night, Geo and I were in the same position, who first did you help?”
Geo who was next to the wall was waiting for Syakila's answer. He also wanted to know, who would Syakila go first, right, himself or Sardin?
Syakila. He was confused to answer. He looked at Sardin's face which changed like it was holding back the pain.
”Kak why? Does sister's head hurt again?”
”Kakak is okay. Please just answer brother's question.”
Syakila was silent again.
”Can't answer? A hum? I'll ask you something else. How much do you love Geo?”
”Do not know brother. Never mind, don't talk about this anymore. Let's just discuss what our relationship in the future is like.”
”Ok. Brother already talked to your parents about our wedding plans. And your parents talked to your parents. They all agree.” Sardin said.
”Are we not too fast this wedding sister?” ask Syakila.
”Why? If Syakila objected to the time, sister can rewind her, according to the day and date you want.”
Syakila sighed. ”No, let's just move on, as you've planned. Our relationship ebbs because of circumstances. Kila once delayed her brother's good intentions for her fiancee and married Kila. And my sister knows for herself what happened. Now, Kila won't reject sister's goodwill anymore.”
Sardin chuckles. ”You're like a resigned person. As if brother forced you to marry.”
”You better rest. You didn't sleep well last night, and you woke up at five. Go to sleep, brother does not want you sick.” said Sardin.
”Iya. Then Kila stayed first, sister. Sister also rest.”
Sardin. Shakila stood up and went to her room.
Sardin stood up from his seat and came to Geo's current seat. He had seen Geo who rewinded his steps when going through the front room of Syakila.
Sardin sat in front of Geo. ”Why not join earlier? Feeling bad?” tanyakanya.
”Hum? Oh, naw. I just don't want to bother you guys.” replied Geo, flatly.
”You heard it right?”
”I didn't notice. I'm listening to music.” Geo's alibi. In fact, the music he had just heard when Sardin told Syakila to go to rest.
”She loves you.”
”The love is only temporary. Will not last.” said Geo with his flat face.
”Argh!” sardin screams while holding his head.
GEO becomes panicked, ”Your head hurts again? Where's your medicine, I'll get you.”
”Take me to the room only. I want to rest.” Sardin said.
”Ok!” Geo helps Sardin stand up and breaks him into Sardin's room.
”What hurts so much? Why don't you try the operation?” Geo sat Sardin quietly on the bed. Sardin leaned against the wall of the bed
”Operation is very small success rate. I didn't want to take any chances at that time. So did my parents.”
”Is it because Syakila was your reason then and now? Where's your medicine?”
”There is in my bag, the frontmost res section.” replied Sardin.
Geo takes Sardin's bag and looks for Sardin's cure. He found the medicine and took a glass of water. He brought it to Sardin. ”This, drink your medicine first.”
Sardines take the medicine and put it in the mouth and take the drinking water and drink it. The drug dissolves into the body of Sardine along with the water that is swallowed.
”Thank you.” he gave an empty glass to Geo.
Geo picked it up and put it on the nightstand. ”Rest! I'm out first.”
”Sit first.” Sardin's word.
Geo according. He sat on the chair and leaned his back.
”Actually, my condition is getting worse. I look fresh because of the influence of medicine. I don't know when I'm going. If I go, I don't want Syakila to be with another man. I will be calm if you are with Syakila.” said Sardin.
Geo's forehead wrinkled at Sardin's. ”You're trying to match me up with Syakila again?”
”I didn't match you with Syakila. I'm just pouring out my heart on you.” elak Sardin.
”You should take steps for operation only. I have a good doctor, who I know. I'll invite him specifically from country L for you. Are you ready?”
”No! I can't anymore. I should have been, by the time of the accident I was dead. But, because of my determination and promise to Syakila, which made me last.”
”Syakila can go crazy if you go. I consider you like a brother and a friend. Please accept my goodwill on behalf of Syakila.” persuade Geo.
”I can't. It's too late. Don't tell Syakila my deteriorating situation is.”
”Before I leave, I want to fulfill my promise to Syakila.”
”You want to make Syakila a widow after you say ijab kabul?”
Sardin. Holding his head which still feels pain.
”You bastard! I'm lazy to talk to you. I go!” Geo stepped out of Sardin's room. Geo went to his room.
.. ..
The city S.
”Now they will arrive. Should we pick them up at the airport or wait at home?” sarmi asked Johan.
”Suach to you. If you want to pick them up, we'll go to the airport now. If not, just wait for them at home.” replied Johan. He returned the decision to Sarmi himself.
”Then, we wait for them at home.” said Sarmi, after a long time he thought.
”What are they? It's coming fast!” sarmi said again when he heard the sound of the roar of the car stopping in front of his house.
Sarmi stood at the door. He saw the car.
”Who came?” ask Johan.
”Nesa and Alimin.” Sarmi replied, looking at Nesa and Alimin walking towards her.
”Sarmi, do you want to go pick them up at the airport?” ask Nesa.
They have entered Sarmi's house.
”No, I'm at home just waiting for them to come. You want to go pick them up?” Sarmi asked back.
”Not be. The plan was to call you to go pick them up together. But, since you're not coming, neither am I. We wait for them here only.” said Nesa.
”Do you prepare something to welcome them?” ask Nesa.
”I just made a favorite meal of Syakila and some other kinds of dishes. Also there are several kinds of pudding and fruit for dessert.” replied Sarmi.
”Oh.”
They also fell silent. And sit waiting for their children to come.
.. ..
On plane.
Sardin took back his medicine before he was about to get off the plane. Geo and Syakila are getting ready.
The plane will land in fifteen minutes at the airport.
The plane landed perfectly. The plane door opens. Syakila saw several men dressed in black suits already lined up left and right at the end of the flight stairs.
The influence of this man is huge. I used to not pay much attention. Now, I know this man has influence, has great power, Syakila thought.
They got off the plane.
”Master! Welcome to the city of S.” said the men in black suits while taking the bag in Geo's hands.
”Iya. Thank you.”
Not only Geo bags they took, Sardin and Syakila bags also they held and brought it into the car.
There are also several cars parked at the airport to welcome Geo.
”Master,” one of the men gave one car key to Geo. Geo.
”Sardin, Syakila, come on, get in the car.” Geo's word. Syakila and Sardin nodded.
They got into the front of the car. Even though the men in suits had already gotten into the car, they still did not walk before the Geo car that went first.
Geo runs his car. He himself sat in front. Syakila sat in the back with Sardin.
Sardin took Syakila's hand and grasped it. He could feel that Syakila was nervous. His hands sweat.
”Why are you nervous?” ask Sardin to Syakila.
”Not nervous, just a little scared just to go home.”
From the plane until now, Syakila was free to tell her thoughts, her heart, what she felt for Sardin. I'm a little envious, Geo thought. He glanced at Sardin and Syakila for a moment.
”Fear why?”
Syakila saw Geo. ”It's okay.” he replied.
”If it's okay, you shouldn't be afraid right? Anyway, there's me, there's Geo next to you. Still scared of what? Aunt Sarmi will understand our situation. No need to worry.”
”Iya.”
One heart, one thought once these two. Syakila had not answered Sardin's question, but, Sardin already knew what Syakila was afraid of. Makes me even more envious, Geo thought.
The mood was silent again. Geo put up music to repel the sense of silence created. The car speed added. The streets are empty of other motorists. So, it doesn't matter if you speed a little.
The car behind Geo did the same thing as Geo.
A few minutes they were on their way, they had arrived in front of Sarmi's house. Geo stopped the car. Geo's men's car also stopped behind Geo's car.
From inside the car, Syakila saw her mother, her uncle, Sardin's parents and her brother were waiting for them to get out of the car.
They got off the car. Geo's men also got out of the car with suitcases carrying Sardin and Syakila clothes. While Geo's suitcase suits, they leave it in the car.
After they put Sardin and Syakila's bags inside the house, they returned to the car, waiting for Geo.
I could see her mother's teary eyes. Syakila's eyes were also glazed over.
”Mama, Uncle, Om, Aunt.” Syakila greeted them one by one. Geo and Sardin did the same as Syakila.
”Alhamdulillah, you came safely. Come..ayo...enter into.” Johan said.
They're getting inside the house. The atmosphere feels awkward. Especially for Sarmi and Johan. They were both confused to talk.
Same with Syakila, Geo, and Sardin. They are confused to talk too.
”Em..you must be hungry. Let's go straight to the kitchen. Food has been served.” invite Biah, who just came from the kitchen.
”Geo, Shakila, Sardine. Come on, let's eat first, son. After that you just rest.” connect Sarmi.
”Iya, Mama.” says Syakila and Geo.
”Iya, Bibi.” says Sardin.
”Kok, call him still Auntie? Call Mama, Sardin.” Nesa calls Sardin for Sarmi.
Sarmi saw Geo. She's not feeling well.
”Come, all of us to the kitchen only.” said Johan.
They stood up and went to the kitchen. Arriving at the dining table, the atmosphere still feels awkward, even when they eat.
