GRUDGE the Love of Two Worlds

Hugging Tiara

The human scent was still very thick in Joko's nose.

At times like this, he should not go anywhere and just sit around waiting for Tiara to come out. But considering Raka who was already a friend to him, he immediately left.

"Where's Raka?" his murmurs looked back and forth. "If it's been three days, maybe I won't be able to find him again."

Joko then goes deeper, towards the dim rooms decorated with jewels and fine silk on the walls.

"I'm sure he's definitely here." Joko sneaks in.

Sure enough, the figure of Raka was sitting on the bed decorated with jewels. His face was flat, his gaze was blank, but his breathing was still heard.

"Raka." call Joko then pat Raka Wijaya on the shoulder.

"Huh." he was surprised.

"You have to go home." Joko reminded Raka who looked dazed.

"Come home?" tanya Raka was not fully aware.

"Yes, this is not a human place." Joko pointed around the room.

"Man?" asked Raka again, she really did not know what to look like.

"Raka. You should not ally with a demon. Come with me home." Joko grabbed Raka's hand.

But not to mention Raka moved, the figure of the stealth woman came to kick Joko.

"How dare you enter my palace." he was angry with Joko.

"He's my friend." Joko again grabbed Raka's hand, and again got a punch.

Fights were inevitable again, the two of them were hitting each other and attacking the savage. Joko who is human is certainly difficult to fight demons like Nyi Roro Ayu.

Joko changes herself, suddenly tall and growing up with eerie blue eyes. He kicked the woman who was currently also already turned into a snake.

The opponent was balanced, but became unbalanced when the woman let out a red-colored punch darted across Joko's chest.

"Dam." Joko held onto his chest, finding it too difficult against the woman. Even if he won he would not be able to escape from so many of his men. Joko chooses to leave without Raka starting to wake up.

"Lady, why am I here?" asked Raka looking at the woman.

"We will stay here forever, we will soon marry Raka. Lucky for you to be my husband, not my slave" he said, laughing happily.

While outside the cave, Joko could only look at the place in disappointment.

"That's Raka, human greed sometimes makes itself fall back. Like you." he said then completely left.

On a clear morning, Angga and Bunga were preparing to go to Tiara's school. To take care of their move to Kalimantan as soon as possible.

The crowded school looks fun, but Bunga sees his son just sitting still not playing.

Flowers approached the girl. "What's up, kid, why don't you come play?" ask Flowers slowly.

Tiara looked at her mother. "Tiara felt very sad to have to leave here" she replied then just looking around the courtyard.

"Sadly parting with friends huh?" ask the flowers again.

Tiara shakes.

The little girl looked up at the blue sky, the distant looking eyes itself felt a tightness in her chest. Somehow moving to a new place will make him sad, he always thought there would be no more beautiful blue sky like on top of his school building today.

The accompanying clouds are so beautiful, she often smiles at the thought of floating up there with someone who loves her, obeys what she wants, and is always loyal to her.

Not to mention the cool atmosphere in the shady tree, sitting on this wooden bench is so soothing. He felt that there were always people accompanying him, making his heart happy even though he did not know what.

"Yes ma'am." she answered according to.

No one knows if his heart is very sad to have to part with the beautiful atmosphere in this village.

Heavy, feeling his tired back lose a sturdy wall to lean on.

Her tears fell down.

Beside him, Angga stood with very surprised eyes, not expecting his nephew to already feel the influence of Jin's love named Joko.

Such is the way that the delicate and tender human heart can feel what it cannot see, even what it cannot hear.

The heart can fall in love without the eyes seeing it first. That's what happened to Tiara.

"Come on, we have to meet the teacher." Flowers then moved to invite Angga into the school building.

From a short distance away, a handsome man stood straight at the grieving Tiara. His steps slowly approached with unblinking eyes.

"Tiara." called out to her as she stood behind the girl sitting just looking at the distant sky.

"Tiara can't be sad." Joko hears Tiara's inner voice comforting herself.

"The wrong Joko always loves Tiara, but cannot appear before Tiara. Joko was completely wrong..." Joko looked at him with a very sad face.

"Tiara will go." Tiara's voice sounded again.

Unable to stand it anymore, Joko hugged Tiara from behind, not so tightly but really make haru, her head leaning on Tiara's small back.

Under the shade of the tree the two were grieving without being able to reveal each other. One can see and hear, but the other can only feel.

Every day Joko accompanies Tiara from morning until school. If it used to be every time, since Angga's return he only had time at school.

The scent of a human child pierces Joko's nose when she hugs him for the first time, Joko is afraid she can't see him again.

But the sound of bells ringing was disturbing, the sign that all students must enter immediately. No exception Tiara who then moved from Joko's invisible embrace.

"Be careful" said Joko as all the children ran and Tiara walked along.

It's impossible to hear but saying it makes Joko proud to be half dead.

The third night after the wedding of Bunga and Angga, meaning two more days Angga will take the two women away immediately.

Tired of looking at the Bidara tree lying in front of the house, could only hear Tiara's voice but could not approach her. Joko is dizzy looking for a way to meet tonight.

And unexpectedly Tiara came out of the house alone, with a sweet smile she saw the left right of her grandmother's house was somehow looking for who.

"Where are you going?" ask Yanto's wife to approach her grandson.

"Tiara is going to Arya Nek's house, want to borrow a book." Tiara pointed at the house not far from her house.

"Grandma temenin huh?" said Yanto's wife.

"No need, Tiara can be alone" he replied then walked over to the house in front of him.

"Arya." call Tiara into the house.

"Tiara." The boy named Arya came out of his room with a book that they seemed to have promised to take turns reading.

"Tiara mau_" The clear eyes were suddenly surprised by Arya's change which looked more handsome and the look of different eyes.

"Arya." call Tiara slowly.

Arya smiled and grabbed Tiara's hand, asking Tiara to look at her face and eyes, until the two looked at each other and a smile rose together.
