ENDRO, THE BODYGUARD

'CREATED FOR ME'

"Endro..." Call Mentari lirih. They were still sitting on the sand on the edge of the lake.

"Rummer..." Endro quietly.

"Let's go back. The others will be looking for us..." Bring Mentari.

"alright... But you have to promise me." Pinta Endro conditional.

"What promise?" Eyebrows belonging to the pale-faced girl also shriveled made.

"Every hour, you must be absent from me. Self-proclaim..." Endro's orders were firm.

"Huhhh?" Mentari's mouth gawks. "Why should that be?"

"Yes... I just want to make sure you're okay." Endro.

"Hufhh... There's-there's this, people..." Mentari. He shook his head ignoring Endro's orders. Mentari got up from his seat and stepped away from Endro who felt troubled.

"Promise...!" Endro cried again while getting up from his seat.

Mentari stopped his steps. "Yes... Da... Carrots..." He was forced without looking again. Secretly, they smiled without each other knowing it.

Before they went back to the camp, Endro was packing up the wood he had been scaling. Meanwhile, Mentari took his jeriken which was already filled with water.

*****

As promised, once every hour, Mentari always appeared in front of Endro. Secretly, without anyone knowing, Mentari even showed his face to the man.

Endro smirked happily. In his heart, there was a pain when he saw the smile on the girl's face. It's sad to remember the day Mentari was beaten by Alex. And time will always wait for that.

It was past that time, they made a bonfire there. And all the schoolmates who will come will sit around the burning fire before them.

Some students and students among them, alternately provide entertainment. There are singing, poetry, comedy and many other acts they perform.

"How about we listen to a song that Endro will perform.Listen-listen, he's a good guitar player." Said one of them.

Endro. He refused, but one of them cheered his name.

"Endro... Endro... Endro..." Yes, he is a Mentari. Mentari cheered while patting her hands. And others followed.

"Endro... Endro... Endro..."

Because of the voice that he heard first, Endro finally came forward. He picked up the guitar he had brought from home. Guitar made by his father, when he was still sitting on the bench Junior High.

"Come dong, End... Why do you bring a guitar, if it's not shown us how to play." Another one of them urged him. They seem curious and impatient.

Endro slowly controlled his breathing. He sat in the chair that had been provided and set his position to feel comfortable when playing a simple musical instrument that he held.

Endro's hands began to pluck the strings of his guitar.

"Huu... Good End..." Their cheers were heard again. A standing ovation greeted the sound of music coming out of each passage of his fingers against the strings of the guitar.

Looking at the beautiful smile on your face...

All were silent and stunned, when they first heard Endro singing his song Purple 'Created For Me'.

When we get to the chorus of the song. The Mentari Tears flowed. I don't know what he felt at the time. He seemed to feel the seriousness of the man towards him from behind the song performed by Endro that night.

I want you to slalu...

Come and accompany me...

At every step that I believe...

You were made for me...

All my life...

Not only Mentari, many of them are so fond of Endro's heart. Even though they do not understand and realize the truth.

Their applause again sounded festive, they were so satisfied with the appearance of Endro in front of them.

For a moment, Endro glanced at Mentari. She smiled and hinted for the girl to wipe her tears.

The mentor who understood the gesture nodded his head, he returned a smile from Endro. Mentari rubbed her tears that had flooded her cheeks earlier.
