Devotion of Love

Eka Mahendra Dirgantara

"Mr Dirga, welcome and please sit down!" randy said kindly, Dirga nodded slowly assuring. With a smile Dirga greeted Randy's hospitality. Then Dirga turned towards Agam and Zalwa. With a puzzled look on her face, Dirga stared at Randy.

"Mr Dirga, this is Mr. Agam and Ms. Zalwa. Those who will be responsible for the construction of your shopping center. They are the winners of the project tender. Their company is also recommended by Mr. Dimas!" randy explained, Dirga nodded in understanding. Dirga reached out to Agam.

"It's nice to meet you. I am Dirgantara Eka Mahendra. Sorry if I trouble you with a meeting today!" said Dirga kindly, Agam received a helping hand Dirga. Agam introduced himself, he also introduced Zalwa to Dirga.

"Randy, Mr. Dimas trusts you very much. Even you were given the confidence to represent him in this meeting. His wise attitude always amazed me. Not with the arrogance of a leader to his men that he showed. Yet the warmth that is always seen in all its employees!" dirga said shortly after sitting down, Randy smiled as he bowed. Randy was flattered by Dirga's praise of her. But actually today's meeting is not Randy who replaces. But Tika who represents Dimas, but because there is Hana and Hanif. Tika asks Randy to replace her.

"Mr Dirga, it was not the intention of Mr. Dimas to ask me to represent him. Mr. Dimas's unstable health condition. It's not possible to join the meeting this afternoon. Actually he was represented by his daughter, but…!" randy said awkwardly, he was confused to give an excuse. Dirga one of his coworkers, as well as still a relative Dimas. The Anggara and Mahendra companies establish cooperation and tie up families. Very bad, if Dirga feels insulted. When he came without being welcomed by the company leader Anggara.

"You mean Kartika Putri Anggara, she represents mister Dimas!" sahut Dirga, Randy and Agam turned almost simultaneously. Both of them were surprised to hear Dirga knew Tika well. Randy nodded slowly, instead Agam felt that something was wrong with the way Dirga mentioned Tika's name. But whatever it is Agam can not be angry and blame Dirga. Her relationship with Tika exists, but it doesn't seem real.

"You know Miss Tika, she came. But because of some business, he asked me to take his place!" randy said kindly, Dirga nodded with a knotty smile.

He clearly remembers the meeting with Kartika Putri Anggara. The young girl who smiled while holding a sick street child. A girl who doesn't care about disgust. Only sincerity looks real. Helping without seeing who is being helped and hoping to get a word of thanks. Memories of meeting with Tika. As well as a sense of admiration for the figure of Tika playing beautifully in his mind.

Exactly one month of living in a country of people. Tika lives in Mahendra's residence. Dirga accidentally sees Tika for the first time. But the meeting was only for a moment and there was no word to know each other. A few days after that meeting. Dirga accidentally saw Tika standing on the side of the road. Tika was holding a dirty street child. Tika gently held the child. Without Dirga noticing, her tears were dripping. He regretted ignoring those who loved him. While right in front of her Tika was teaching her the meaning of sincere affection.

"I just met him. He was looking after his two sons, Hana and Hanif the jolly children. The last time I met her was when Tika was holding a street kid. Today is the first time in years. I saw him playing with his own kids!" said Dirga, Agam immediately looked at Dirga's face. There was anger in Agam's little heart. When someone clearly praises his wife so sincerely.

"It turns out you're a loving man. Lucky woman who became your wife!" zalwa said softly, Dirga smiled. Since the first time Dirga came. Zalwa is the only person who is amazed at the prestige of a Dirga. Although not love, Zalwa was happy to get to know Dirga. Great figure, but warm without arrogance.

"Thank you for the compliment, but it's better now that we start the meeting. I have to go back to my country tonight. If I had, maybe I'd stop by to see Mr. Dimas!" dirga said firmly, Zalwa can only nod slowly. Zalwa felt Dirga's warm attitude for only a moment. In fact, Dirga was cold to him and as if his words were just a compliment.

The meeting took place without any constraints. During the meeting, more silence. Zalwa is a talkative. After reaching a deal. Finally Dirga said goodbye, he had to meet someone else. Dirga smiled wryly as she shook hands with Agam. It was as if he understood the meaning of Agam's gaze.

"Sir Agam, you may be confused why I know Tika so well? I know Kartika Putri Anggara, but she never knew me. It was true that there was a sense of admiration for the sincerity of his heart, but there was no word of reply to that sense. I never looked for or kept the picture. I never spoke or recorded his voice. Because he's neatly stored in my veins. Don't think I'll take him. My meeting with him earlier. Pure soul mate without any intentionality. Love is the heart and only the heart knows it. Tika owned it or not, I never thought of being with her. I was too ugly to be next to her!" said Dirga, Agam scrunched his forehead did not understand.

"Why did you tell me?" agam said, Dirga shook his head slowly. Not only Agam, Zalwa and Randy were shocked and did not understand the meaning of Agam's words.

"Your eyes are saying your love is for Tika. If I'm not mistaken, could it be that you're the father of Hana and Hanif. I don't know what happened between you? But you seem to love him, but you can't keep him. Instead I love, but I don't expect to have it. For it is not love, if we make it miserable. Except for the arrogance of being afraid of defeat!" said Dirga.

"Why do you understand Tika? I can't understand Tika. Even I always hurt Tika!" said Agam again, Dirga was silent and then smiled.

"My love is not a pride that wants to have and does not want to be defeated. My love is happiness and Tika's smile. I love Tika not because of her face or status. I love Tika, because of Tika's light hands in helping others. Light hands for others. I will never feel the weight of carrying a burden with me. The reason that made me appreciate Tika to date!" dirga said firmly and warmly.

"But if a soul mate were among us. I wish I could make her happy!" dirga said firmly.
