"Rafan, you've had dinner!" said Dewun lirih, when he saw the new Rafan coming. Rafan turned his head with a flat face, and Rafan's head answered Dew's anxiety.
Since a few days, Rafan always came home late. Busy in the hospital and his studies, take Rafan rest time. Dewun had asked Rafan to choose between work and his studies. But the Dew request is only a wind past. Rafan continues with his decision. Rafan chooses to spend time with many activities. It was as if Rafan was running from reality. The mother felt she did not know her son. But Dewun did not have a good reason, to ask the reason for Rafan's changed attitude.
"Mama will prepare dinner for you. Clean yourself up, then come down for dinner!" said Dewun, Rafan was silent. With no rejection or approval, Dewun is increasingly anxious about Rafan's change of attitude.
Abra happened to see Rafan's silent attitude. Silence that is impossible for Rafan to show to Dewun. But tonight, it is clear Abra saw the relationship between mother and child that stretched. I don't know for what reason? But Rafan's attitude is not usual, Abra feels Rafan is under great pressure. Something was stirring in his mind. Something Abra had felt when she was young. Anxiety was once a dilemma in the life of an Abra.
"Rafan, go up to your room. If you are hungry, go down to dinner. Papa'll see you later!" abra said, Rafan nodded without hesitation. Rafa agrees with Abra's words, as if Rafan and Abra's thoughts were the same.
Dew turned his head in turn towards Abra and Rafan. There was a sense of disbelief, seeing the relationship of father and son improved. Instead Abra is more convinced, if Rafan keeps something that is not easy to tell to Dewun. Mother who is always there first in every step of Rafan's life. But now he is the last man, not because Rafan no longer cares about Dewun. But something is going to hurt the Dew. If Rafan tells Dewun about the problem.
"Sister Abra, what happened to Rafan? Why would he ignore me? As if Rafan doesn't need me anymore!" he said softly filled with disbelief, Abra shook his head weakly.
Abra disagrees with Hanna's shallow thinking. Until whenever Rafan will not ignore the Dew, there is only time a mother is left out. When a father needs a son more. Like Rafan's current condition, he feels more comfortable talking to Abra. Than talking to Dew.
"Calm down baby, Rafan is under a lot of pressure. A man must be able to resolve the pressures in his life. Otherwise, Rafan will forever be in his comfort zone. Now my son is trying to fight the pressures of his life. So let a father finish it. I'm gonna find out, what's the pressure he's under?" abra said, Dewun pensively heard the words of Abra.
The Dew felt that Abra's words made no sense. But in his heart, Dewun was happy. Seeing the relationship between Abra and Rafan that is starting to warm. At least after years of a cooling father-son relationship. Today, Dew sees a way for the two to get closer and warmer. Dewun tries to understand Rafan's silence, because there will be Abra who will be the support of his son Rafan.
"I hope my sister's words are true. Now, do I have to make dinner or not?" he said softly, Abra shook his head slowly.
"Why? Rafan hasn't had dinner yet!" said Dewun, Abra nodded in agreement with Dewun's words.
"I'll take Rafan out to dinner. Right now I'm sure, his stomach doesn't feel hungry. Worry in his heart, momentarily dispel hunger and thirst. Even his eyes would not feel sleepy. Something natural, when his heart and mind were filled with one pressure!" abra said softly, Dewun smiled. Then walk away from Abra. Dew felt the words of Abra start to slant.
"As for brother, I go to Kanaya's room. Since this afternoon, he had locked himself in a room. I'm afraid something happened to her!" said Dewun, while climbing the stairs. Abra nodded in agreement to Dewun's words. Abra smiled looking at the back of the Dew that was getting away. Deep in his heart, there was a sense of pride in the figure of Dewun. A mother who can be a friend to her children.
"Honey, I'll take Rafan out to dinner. If Kanaya's willing, you'll catch up with me. We can have dinner together!" abra shouted, Dew brandishing a thumbs up into the air. The Dew signal agrees with Abra's words.
An hour later, Abra and Rafan arrived at a cafe overlooking the sea. A two-story cafe and set the sky. Abra accidentally takes Rafan to a place far from home. The sea holds a mystery that has never been solved. A place that will make someone feel calm. Rafan son of Dewun, he has almost the same nature and habits. So Abra took Rafan to the sea. So that Rafan can express all the restlessness in his heart.
"Rafan hotshot, now we're just the two of us. We are far from my mom and home. Now you can say the whole burden in your mind. Papa will be a loyal listener!" abra said, Rafan looked up at Abra. Two of Rafan's eyes are sad.
Abra saw something stored in Rafan's eyes. Abra is convinced that there is a problem that Rafan is thinking about. A problem that is too difficult to express, but will never be solved. If Rafan doesn't share it with someone. The reason that made Abra bring Rafan to this place. Besides taking Rafan to dinner. Abra wanted to hear the grievance of the son. Abra wants to be Rafan's friend, not the father who will interfere in Rafan's affairs.
"Father!" rafan said, Abra was fixated on hearing a hopeful call from Rafan.
The call that Abra's ears had almost forgotten. A call that touched Abra, not because of Rafan's son. But the meaning behind the call of Rafan who was so expecting the help of Abra. For a moment Abra saw Rafan who needed him so much. Abra looked at little Rafan who was afraid of falling. Lirih calls Rafan, Rafan's helping hand who needs Abra's help. The expectant attitude of a son long away from Abra.
"Say Rafa, papa will hear it!"
"Tell me, should I choose love or brotherhood?" rafan said briefly, but Abra looked up. He stared in disbelief, Abra seeing his weak son in anxiety. Abra begins to realize the reason for Rafan's different attitude.
"Hanna, does this have anything to do with him?" abra said guessing, Rafan nodded slowly. Abra sighed, he started to realize the direction of Rafan's problem. Abra clasped Rafan's hand tightly, nodding Abra's head into a gesture of support. Abra hopes that Rafan will say all his heart.
"Tell me everything, what really happened? Papa will only be your friend at this time. Papa wouldn't have interfered, had papa had an opinion. It's just a view and the decision remains with you!" abra said, Rafan was silent.
No sound was heard, only the waves of the sea were heard. The sea breeze felt coldly piercing the bones. The moon looks embarrassed to show its light. The sky is dark without the light of the moon. Rafan silently felt nature so cold to greet him. Before long, Rafan's breath sounded.
"Papa, actually a few days ago Hanif came to see me!"
"Hanif, son of Iman!" abra said in disbelief, Rafan nodded in agreement. Abra scrunched his forehead not understanding.
"He came to see me in the hospital. He asked for something heavy and I couldn't give him!" rafan said in a stifled voice, Abra patted Rafan slowly on the shoulder.
FLASHBACKS
"How's Doctor Rafan doing?" hello Hanif, Rafan twisted his body 180°. Rafan saw Hanif already standing right behind him. Not yet Rafan answered, seen Hanif walking up to him. Hanif asked for time to talk to Rafan. Without any suspicion, Rafa assures and invites Hanif to go to the hospital. The most comfortable place in the hospital
"Please sit!" rafan said hesitantly, Hanif smiled as he pulled up the chair. Hanif was sitting right in front of Rafan. Seeming Rafan's clumsy demeanor, there is confusion created from his meeting with Hanif. The clumsy attitude that Hanif caught easily.
"Hanif, call me Hanif. I am the sister of your real mother. But until now, I have not fully accepted this relationship. So consider me as your peer, unless you are willing to accept my request. I would consider accepting a fraternal relationship with your family, especially your birth mother!" said Hanif coldly, Rafan silently looked at Hanif nanar.
Suddenly Rafan felt a pain in his heart. Hanif's words made Rafan feel sick. Natural instincts are felt, when our hearts are hurt. Rafan tried to stay calm and thought everything would be fine. With the calm and dignified gaze of a doctor, Rafan faced Hanif's haughty attitude.
"You came all the way, certainly not for pleasantries. If there is anything you want to say. Please talk, I'll listen to it. Whether I agree or not depends on your request. I'm afraid I don't have something you want!"
"You have it!" sahut Hanif was firm and cold. Rafan propped up his chin with both hands. It seems that Rafan compensates for the arrogance and arrogance of Hanif Rka Adijaya. Rafan starts to find calm, he tries to firmly face Hanif's cold demeanor.
"Hanna, I want him!" hanif said haughty and arrogant. As Rafan stared in disbelief, Hanif's words made no sense. Hanna is not an item that can be given or exchanged. Obviously Rafan was angry to hear Hanif's words. But Rafan tries to hold back his anger, Hanif will become more and more when faced with anger.
"I don't understand!" sahut Rafan, Hanif laughed at Rafan's speech. Obviously Rafan understood what Hanif said. But Rafan has not understood, what is the essence of Hanif's words?
"I want you to let go of Hanna. Cancel the match between you. Letting Hanna marry me. If you fulfill my request. I will acknowledge the brotherly relationship with your family. Otherwise, I will make your mother suffer. Because he's the reason I hate my real father!" said Hanif arogant, Rafan shook his head weakly. He rejected Hanif's request right then and there.
"You've misunderstood, you should have asked Hanna to her family. I'm a nobody? Hanna still belongs to both her parents. After all, Hanna was not an item that deserved to be asked for or given away. One more thing, Hanna had nothing to do with the Adijaya family dispute. It's absurd that Hanna is a victim of Adikaya's family problems!" rafan said firmly, Hanif laughed with his challenge. Rafan's words were nonsense to Hanif.
"As for you, I'll give you time until your wedding plans with Hanna fail. Remember Rafan, think carefully of my request. You may be the man Hanna loves, but I'm the man who loves Hann with all my life!" hanif said coldly, then left Rafan.
FLASH BACK OFF
"What should Rafan do? On the other hand, there is the happiness and calmness of the mother. On the other hand, there was the happiness and tranquility of Hanna. I should choose one of them. If it is, I must hurt one for the sake of the happiness of the other!" rafan said, shortly after telling everything to Abra. Rafan leaned over, sticking his forehead on the table. Rafan closed his eyes with both hands. Rafan was worried about two pieces that could never be chosen by him.
Abra rubs softly Rafan's jet black hair. Abra understands the dilemma that Rafan is feeling. In his son's heart were two women who were so important. A mother gives her life and Hanna a woman who gives light in her life. Abra is confused by Rafan's problem. There's only one person who can decide and it's not Abra or Rafan.
"Rafan, tell mama. Ask him to answer your concerns. Papa's sure, mama will ask you to choose Hanna. Mama won't let Hanif mess with your happiness. Your opinion will be the same as your mother's. The Adijaya family matter, has nothing to do with Hanna!" said Abra, while gently rubbing Rafan's head. Rafan shook his head slowly. He did not want Dew to hear of this matter. Rafan doesn't want to see Dew sad.
"He won't be honest with me. Rafan is afraid I'm hurt by this. Rafan knows me, so he prefers silence. But Rafan began to doubt me as a mother. He felt able to give me happiness, at the expense of his happiness. Rafan began to forget, if my hands that had been erasing his tears. Both of my hands were holding her, as she cried. Rafan no longer believes, if I am the mother who has been giving peace in her life. Rafan's starting to feel great without me!" said the cold Dew, Abra and Rafan immediately looked up and turned towards Dewun. They were standing right behind them. Dewun hears all the honesty of Rafan.
"Mama, I didn't mean it that way!" rafan said in a voice full of guilt. Rafan stood towards the Dew, his hands cupped right in front of his chest. Rafan apologized for the misunderstanding that had occurred to Dewun.
"Darling, Rafan didn't mean anything bad!" abra said chiming in, hoping that Dewun does not misunderstand.
"Mama, forgive Rafan!" rafan said with teary eyes. Rafan feels even more guilty, as he sees the Dew that remains silent.
"If you still believe in your mother. You should believe that you can face Hanif and solve the problems of the Adijaya family. If you think mama's hurt, because of Hanif's refusal. You should also be able to think, if you're not going to see your son destroyed!" said Dew cool and full of emotion.
"I'm sorry, Rafa!" rafan said, Dew shook his head weakly. Abra hugs Dewun, hoping Dew forgives Rafan.
"Mama, forgive Rafan!" rafan said stammered.
"Darling!" abra said, Dewun silent does not budge.
"It's not the mother who should forgive you, it's the woman standing by the sea. She's the woman you've given hope and sorrow to at the same time. He who keeps crying awaits your certainty. The woman who cries in prostration and prayer just for your sake. Mama will forgive your stupidity, after she forgives you!" he said, Abra and Rafan turned towards the sea.
"Hanna!" said Rafan lirih, Hanna and Kanaya were standing facing the sea.
