...Canda At The Cottage...

...****************...

All day spent just for sightseeing visiting here and there from one place to one.

Now the four of them have gone to the beach Losari, passing the Cape of Flowers and see the uniqueness there. From there, they headed to an orphan's cottage, where they stopped for a while. They brought boxes of cocoa clothes they bought that they wanted to share with orphans.

On the highway after the market, there is a hallway the size of one car, where they stopped. Not only boxed parcels but also the day-to-day clothing supplies they carry.

Their arrival to the orphan hut was actually long planned by Eden. Long ago when he was still living destitute, in his village when he first knew with Miss, he told Miss that if one day he became a successful person and had enough wealth at least he would make orphans happy.

Because at this time Eden has not been cured of the Amnesia he suffered, the intention that Eden ever talked about was realized by Missing.

Somewhat far away, just because they use the car finally arrived at the lodge. Because the new clock was eight o'clock at night, they got out of the car.

Seen from the front door of the children's home at that level came out with a smile, his laughter made Eden feel comfortable.

"I want to spend the night here !"_ Eden tells Miss, the gondrong and the car driver.

"I feel comfortable being among them. If they could come with me and go for a walk around the ocean, I'd be more excited. Life is short even simple, I remember there were many smiles they could give me."

"It's not what it used to be"_ said the driver Missing.

"Mom, Mr. Eden had a change of attitude when he saw the orphans. Is this a sign that Mr. Eden will be healed, ma'am ?."

"Hopefully ! I feel that way too. When Eden saw the boys, he looked different. He remembered about the sea, he remembered the waves, he wanted to sail with them. Is this a sign that he's going to heal ?."

"Our hope is so, may he recover and return to his condition as usual."

"Oh, who's coming ?." The manager of the cottage came out because he saw his children a little noisily welcoming Eden and Missing. Seeing that guests are coming, they are welcome to come inside.

"Please come in sir, ma'am. Please sit down first, I'll take the water first"_

"O, don't bother, ma'am. We're just here for a minute." Sahut Long

"You guys first come to this place ?."

"Yes, Mom !. We came here on purpose. There's a little ole-ole to this cottage family."

Discussed the first time with the manager of the orphanage, Eden was not even sitting with Miss. Eden again fun to play with the children of the cottage. Just how many kids did not play with Eden. Each child took turns riding on Eden's back. Playing the horses was the most special thing for those orphans.

Seeing that happy state. Miss and the manager of the cottage laughed.

"Newly this time there is a man who came to this cottage immediately familiar with the children here. Is he Mom's husband ?." The manager of the cottage asked Miss.

"He's my future husband, Mom. We are planning to get married in the near future. But there are obstacles that result in our marriage intention having to be postponed for a while."

"O, sorry Mom ! I didn't mean to make Mom sad."

"No !. Ordinary of Mom !. When we first got out of the car, he looked familiar with the kids here. His name is Eden, he's not a native of Makassar, he's a long way from here. We have known for a long time even our relationship had stagnated for a long time. He's suffering from a disease of forgetting oneself."

"Suffering from a self-forgotten illness, does Mother Amnesia mean ?."

"My name's Missing. Yes, he suffered from Amnesia which resulted in almost the entirety of his memory forgetting the activities he had done. Even I who accompany him every time sometimes, he forgets who I am"_

"The illness started with a car accident. On the way back, we were heading to my house to talk about the marriage we had agreed on together. Eden's plan was to propose to me in front of my family but fate spoke otherwise. In the middle of the road when his car sped up his speed, his car hit a grandmother. As a result, the masses at the scene judged Eden to the end as it is today"_

"I'm happy to see him playing like that with the kids here. I also want to see it get back to normal."

"You are patient. I pray that he will be healed soon. Yes, his name is alive, his trials are many. A day can be happy already Alhamdulillah !."

"Mom, is it okay if the children are here for tonight we take them to the children's game place including Mother also come. If I may, me and Eden would like to spend the night playing with the kids, if you'll let me !."

"May I miss you, but isn't it late at night ?."

"This ole-olenya Ma'am all there is a donation in the name of Eden for the Pondok family. I beg your prayers, ma'am, for Eden's recovery."

"Yes. God willing, may Mr. Eden be able to return as he was."

"Then we'll go home, ma'am."

Unbeknownst to Rindu and the manager of the cottage, Eden brought some children to a food stall not far from the cottage. Miss and the Cottage Manager thought that Eden was playing in the front yard of the house. When Missing out, he did not see Eden in front of the house. Only the driver saw Eden coming out to the food stall accompanied by the gondrong.

"Mad, where are Eden and the children ?. Didn't they play here ?."

"Yes ma'am, they were playing here but now they're at the stall there. Maybe I'm a little long inside. I held him down just now but Mr. Eden didn't want to, he stayed there. The gondrong with him, I told the gondrong to accompany him."

"Let's go there, Mad. I want to go there too, and we eat too. Oya call all the children who are still in Mom. Let's just get a lot of people in there !."

About forty heads including a rather large walk to Mas Jaka stalls. The happiness engraved on the faces of the children was not depicted.

In front of the shop, I miss seeing Eden and some of the children of the cottage were eating. Sometimes they laugh while eating and even occasionally stare at Eden.

The owner of the stall that was empty of visitors felt grateful because there were additional buyers who wanted to eat in his stall.

"Mom, are all these kids going to eat here ?."

"Yes !. They eat here. Where's the food menu, sir ?."

"The seats aren't enough Mom !. There's only fried rice, ma'am."

"That's it. Then pack sir about fifty packs huh. How much is it, sir ?."

"The total is eight hundred and fifty thousand, ma'am."

"This is Sir !."

"Kids, we can't eat here. Sorry yes ! the chair is not enough, brother has asked for a package. Later you guys eat at home yes, brother want to go home first, tomorrow afternoon we just returned"_

"Mom, we're saying yes !."

"Thank you so much, Miss !."

"Obsolutely customary ma'am. I did it other than wanting to see these kids smile also the first because of the intentions Eden once told me"_

"We say yes, ma'am !."_

"Eden, let's go home !. We'll play here tomorrow !."

"Why go home. I want to sleep here with these kids. You guys go home."

"Eden, don't do it. The kids are going to sleep too. It's late tomorrow, come here !."

"I don't want to !."

"If you don't want to go home, who do I go home with ?." I miss persuading him

"But promise me tomorrow to come here again."

"Yes, I promise."

Finally I can also go home. They got in the car. Then Eden whispered to her ear longing, "you are beautiful and kind. I want a slant on your shoulder, I'm tired of playing with those horses."

"Oh. You want sandar. Yes, you're here but don't sleep."

They are still in their loyalty to live their relationship even though sometimes they miss being made emotional.
