ENDRO, THE BODYGUARD

A LIE

"That was the last day, OM saw his face after the school breakup and before Om's wedding with him." Endro's eyes looked teary reminiscing about his past with Mentari.

"Don't Om say, Om didn't go to college? But why did Om tell Aunt Mentari, if Om wants to go to college?" Nummi. He still remembers very well that yesterday the man said that he was not a graduate.

"The story's still long, son. Now we go home, yeah. It's time for Zuhur." Endro. He did not reduce the curiosity in Nummi to his story.

"Hm... All right, but Nummi's waiting for the continuation of loh Om." Said Nummi looks resigned even though not willing.

" Yes dear. The day after tomorrow God will continue again. For today we rest first. Tomorrow we have a job. And it'll take a whole day." Endro reassured Nummi. A look of disappointment was clearly on the girl's face.

"Yeah... Hemm... What can you do then" Sneak pouted.

" Don't pout so dong. Your beauty is gone." Endro pinched the little chubby cheeks that the girl made. "Let's smile."

"yes Om. Excuse me. And thanks for today, Om. Nummi is happy... So miss the school atmosphere." Nummi showed her smile again.

"Not until a week off, it's been missed. Is there anything special?" Ask Endro teasing him.

"I mean, Om?" Nummi was a little confused. She was a seventeen-year-old girl who had started to understand in which direction Endro asked. Only, he pretended to be clueless to cover up his shock.

"No need for expression. It's just nanya..." Endro laughed amusedly.

"Ih... Om this. There's no..." His eagle.

"You know what Om means, what?"

"iii... Said we were going home. Let's go home." Nummi got up from her seat, and left Endro who was still grinning amusedly at Nummi's behavior. The girl's face looks flushed due to her teasing.

Hope you have true love, son.

Endro got up after Nummi who had been seen away from him.

*****

Endro sat on the balcony of his room facing directly into the garden next to the house. A garden that contains a wide variety of vegetables and garden ornamental flowers. Something that became Mr. Aaron's hobby to fill his free time in a simple house but has a spacious yard.

That night, drizzle painted the room's glass divider with the open air there. With a glare, he looked back at his past. Time that only he could bury himself.

For him, he and God know. Because his heart, pure belonging to the power. He couldn't even set, even if he asked for it.

Forgive Om, Nummi. There's something Om can't tell you.

Something that will only hurt a lot of people that Om cares about. Including you, son. Only Om and He understand this.

When Om went to college. Om found something different in feelings, Om. Unlike what Om feels about Mentari.

I don't see from the side of his wound. But Om saw from all on him. His smile, apparently, his heart and kindness.

At that time, he did not know Om. But Om's heart keeps finding him, without looking for him. He never saw, Om. But Om always sees himself.

As it turns out, Om is only destined as a road and a bridge for himself to his happiness.

There is pain that does not heal. That is, love him in silence. A lie, which arranged his meeting to another man. It was Desri Winandra. Your mother.
