Chapter 102 - The Ghost

*** chapter 102 ***

Setta was in a green meadow filled with sunflowers. The sunlight reflected its light dazzling the flickering eyes

that girl's. Suddenly a man covered the sunlight. His face was more visible.

 “Kak Gibran..”.

Setta hugged the man before him.

“Kok cry, anyway? Don't cry dong!” sahut Gibran while rubbing Setta's back.

“I miss the same Brother..”

Gibran wiped the clear fur on the girl's cheek.

“If you miss your brother, you send a prayer for me,” he said.

Setta nodded, his cries still he could not stop.

Gibran gave a kiss to the girl's tiny lips. A dazzling light shimmered between the faces of the two. The moment the girl opened her eyes, she could only stare at the ceiling of her room. Realizing that meeting Gibran was just a dream, the girl cried again while hugging a pillow.

Nathan opened Setta's room door slowly when he heard his sister's sobs. He knew the sadness his sister was feeling. He also lost Gibran. In fact, he was also very sad because he had to lose another friend, Bejo.

Nathan wiped his tears with his back

her hands. He closed the door to Setta's room. Let it be this time, he left his sister for a moment, dissolving in his sadness.

“Tia, wait!” exclaim Wira called his son before he returned to the prisoner's car to the rutan.

Tia turned to Nathan for permission to see her father. Her husband replied with a nod.

“Come to Lawyer Alinurdin's place on Jalan Melati number five. Your grandfather's will is on him,” Wira said.

Tia simply replied with a nod.

“One more time, forgive father..”.

Tia tried hard to hold her tears down despite the tears.

“Come, hurry in!” A policeman lowered his head to get into the prisoner's car.

“Wait..!” tia's exclamation made Wira look at him.

“Dad, will you be my marriage guardian next month?” ask Tia.

The hero could no longer hold back his harrowing tears when he heard his son's request.

“Iya.. yes of course, dad wants.”.

The door of the prisoner's car was closed, and the vehicle drove towards the detention house.

Nathan hugged Tia's shoulder, then kissed her on the head when he saw the prisoner's car moving away.

Two weeks later, the announcement of the test results was posted on the school wall magazine. Setta managed to defend his champion. His name was at the top of the list of outstanding students.

“Congratulations yes.., so proud I have a friend as smart as you,” said Rania while embracing the girl from the side.

In front of the school gate, Nathan and Tia come up with a bunch of white roses for his beloved sister.

“It is sure that I am the champion, wear roses all?” ledek Setta's.

“Halah... indeed Setta wants to be with you?” nathan asked glanced at Setta who was holding back his laughter with Rania.

“Oh yes, yes, Setta has not accepted me to be his girlfriend, but would you, Ta?” Tanya Jin showed off her face.

“If you can say Brother, yes I want aja,” Setta said.

“Haduh... weight is mah, but be calm, anything will be.

“Bener, yes?” nathan asked, pointing at the man in front of his sister.

The rose that Nathan gave him, he placed it on Gibran's grave. Together with Jin the two recited the pilgrimage prayer of the grave as well as

letter of Yaasin to the deceased. Still remembered the sweet smile of Gibran in his dream at that time. The first love that the girl tried to suppress all this time, she couldn't

Nathan and Tia's marriage was simple and full. Only a few relatives and colleagues were invited to Nathan and Tia's garden party. Kebaya brocade with white combined with batik cloth wrapped Tia's body, making Nathan and who watched their wedding ceremony was very amazed.

“Kak Tia, very beautiful..” Setta stared anxiously.

“He is beautiful, so I retreated slowly, no longer want to fight to be your sister-in-law,” said Rania.

“Idih, ogah also I have a sister-in-law like you,” setta chirps chimed while staring at Rania cynically. After that, they hugged each other while laughing.

“Look at our girls, very beautiful yes wear green kebaya,” said Aryo proudly pointed towards Rania.

“Wuidih there are made, nih,” said Aryo.

“Pastinya, tuh wear clothes same batiknya, cie.” ledek Jin.

“Yoi...,” says Ridwan proudly.

Meanwhile, beside Nathan, Wira, who was given permission to go out of custody to be a marriage guardian, continued to cry to see her beautiful daughter who she had never cared for as a child. It was always an apology that the man made when he hugged Tia and Nathan. After the wedding was over, Wira returned to the detention house.

The bright blue sky coupled with breezes, adds warmth and familiarity to the guests at Nathan and Tia's wedding.

Gibran's shadow was smiling as if it were polished in the cloud carving when Setta saw it.

The palm of a man's hand covered Setta's face which began to narrow his eyes when the glare of the sun hit his face.

“Eh, brother Jin, kirain who,” said Setta.

“I'm jealous you know, just a cloud you can smile sweetly like that, the same time I'm daunted again so your future priest, never get a smile like that,” Jin lamented.

Setta's crisp laugh was on her thin lips while looking at Jin.

The dangdut music that Aryo plays sounds, immediately inviting the fanfare of guests who splash themselves into the party center area while dancing.

“Cute brother dangdutan, yuk Neng!”

Jin smiled as he extended his hand to Setta who immediately greeted him.
