Festive Collection

EPS 96 BLUE NAVEL

Cambodia is white and withered, and the fragrance disappears with the baby's breath. I let out a simple scream, her tears melted. Crickets and Dragonflies speak a thousand languages. Seeing Andi squatting poignantly beside the blue-vortexed red earth mound, it read:

MELANIE

BORN 05-05-1977

DEATH 07-07-2000

Night is like losing the moon and stars. Day is without the sun. Andi lost the wife he loved. His mind drifted far through the time that seven years had passed.

The stage is decorated with various colors. Yellow janur, flowers bathed in light of lights. The audience sat neatly, children, young and even parents looking forward to performing the Sendra Tari Jaka Tarub by the Legendary Dance Stylist S. Dewdlein. Gemalen began to be anchored, Gending Ladrang Manyaran met with a perfectly arranged rhythm. Seven beautiful angels flapping yellow scarves with a gemulai full of charm. Scene after scene boomed with the applause of the audience. Until the romance scene between Jaka Tarub and Dewi Nawang Wulan. The audience was bewitched by the two dancers who nicely played the main character in the dance. Andi who is sturdy and handsome plays Jaka Tarub while Melani who is beautiful high until transformed into an angel Dewi Nawang Wulan. The sound of the gong resounded omens the romance of two lovers of different realms had ended. All the spectators stood in unison giving an applus and a titan. Some even screamed loudly.

“Continue in Andi's true story. Lamar only dia”. Andi flinched, her heart racing. The nerves are like high voltage electrical circuits. His body was stiff, his mouth was silent. Only his eyes did not blink looking at Melani who blushed in embarrassment.

Andi is a handsome young man of twenty-seven years. Three years of studying with teacher Suwarno Dance from SMKI Banyumas, had also been horrified at Padepokan Nini Towok. Andi is multi-talented, besides being famous as a Volleyball athlete with a hard smash to hit, also adept at dancing. Even in the Dance Art exam Andi got a score of 99, almost perfect. Melani is a seventeen-year-old girl who graduated from Junior High who did not continue her senior secondary education. Selected as the character of Dewi Nawang Wulan, in addition to the most beautiful of the seven actors of the angel also because most able to master the character of Dewi Nawang Wulan Well. Unwittingly by Andi, Melani has fallen in love with Andi. Secretly Melani likes to steal a peek at Andi's good looks. But as an innocent village girl Melani only keeps and hides her love in her deepest heart.

Clear water flowing against the rocks that spread the river flowing from the foot of Mount Muria. On the side of the cliff bottom of the river Andi fishing. Not far from where Andi was fishing, Melani and six friends were washing clothes, with a cloth to be free. They looked jovially joking. Yellow-skinned melani glow like a moon. Her waist-long hair was allowed to unravel. His eyes are clear as morning dew. Her nose shaded her tiny lips. Andi flinched when the tip of the fishing rod was sucked catfish, its tight pull dispelled Andi's balance. His sturdy body slid down into the deep depths.

“Byuuuur” grows andi throws spears-high water spears. Melani's friend laughed heartily at the event. Melani screamed loudly. In his heart he wanted to help Andi. But the shame in front of his friend, holding him back from getting off the rocks he stood on. Andi swam to the edge right beside Melani. His body was soaked, his thin t-shirt attached wrapped his stocky body. Raise the chest of his field. Without a sound Melani threw a white striped blue towel towards Andi. With one sambar andi grabbed the towel to dry his hair that was soaked.

“Duh Mas Andi, if fishing do not think of Dewi Nawang Mulan dong”. Kecebur deh ledek Ani temen Melani others by calling the role of Melani.

“Thanks dik” Andi returned Melani towel. Melani smiled sweetly while nodding. Strange tremors re-entered Andi's soul when her eyes collided with Melani's dewy eyes. The hands of the two of them were still holding each other's towels. Ah I have fallen in love with Goddess Nawang Wulan. Andi.

Six friends of Melani simultaneously fluttered water towards the two, while mocking and laughing. Andi Jaka Tarub and Melani Dewi Nawang Wulan are the six months of her girlfriends.

Long story short love Andi and Melani bound with the sacred promise of marriage. Andi brought Melani to Jakarta. Andi got his official assignment in Jakarta. Two years later, a baby boy born to the love of Andi and Melani. The birth of the first daughter strengthens her love. Very happy this young couple.

SEVEN years later. The sky of Jakarta that afternoon was covered in pitch-black clouds. Lightning strikes, lightning beats deafeningly. Heavy rain flushed, washing away the thick dust. The old Bajaj with a sullen voice slid towards Husada Hospital. In it Melani fainted with her nose bleeding. Ratna the little girl cried, her tears wet her round cheeks. Andi requested that the bajaj driver spur his bajaj. His mind was in a mess, no matter what happened Melani had to heal.

Nurses and doctors are busy providing help in the IGD room. Infusion hose is installed on the left wrist, melani nose is installed oxygen hose. Andi and Ratna gather in the hallway of the Hospital praying for Melani's healing.

The joints of Andi's bones crumbled, the towering Mount Muria as if collapsing on his chest. Hearing the doctor's verdict, that Melani suffered from Leukimea stage four. Melani's life was beyond help. He left both his loves forever. Andi was so beaten. His heart was so sad to shed tears. Her sacred love is as short as Love Jaka Tarub and Dewi Nawang Wulan. Because Nawang Wulang must return to Kahyangan according to his orders.

“Dad, let's go home” The voice of a five-year-old little girl disperse Andi's daydreams. Andi kissed the blue navel while whispering. “Return to Heaven My Goddess, wait for me there”.
