- - Kafeel Adiwangsa - -
♦♦♦
Jakarta, Indonesia,
‘Damn it! They don't even let me think!’
After the departure of Rara and the girl's parents from her home, Kafeel-was blown away in her room.
‘BAN*S*T!’
Kafeel swore violently in his heart, with his eyes beginning to heat up -- after his heart first heated up.
“’A ..”
A sound made Kafeel gasp.
His mother and sister came to visit Kafeel in his room.
The mother then sat down next to Kafeel, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, while Lena sat on the floor - in a position facing her sister and mother.
“’A ..”
Kafeel's mother, Magda's Mother - - spoke.
Then grabbed the hand of the firstborn who was clenching firmly.
“Should AA refuse request Om Alam --“
“Don't mention their names, Bun. I'm disgusted to hear it.”
♦
“AA why agree to their request and want to sign the agreement letter they love?--“
“AA have no choice, Bun ...”
“Iya, but AA can reject it, ‘A --“
“Then make them drag Mother to the hospital and remove the heart of Mother?”
Kafeel's mother tightened the grip on her son's hand.
“Mother sincerely, ‘A ... after all this is also not the heart of Mother ...”
Kafeel breathed heavily.
“And Mommy thought I could let that happen? ...”
“But how about Neng geulis, ‘A? ---“
“Maybe I'm not dating him, Bun--“
“Why AA can't talk to Bang Alva?” hatch Lena.
“You can read this agreement letter, Len ...”
“They have already planned this really like yes, ‘A?”
Lena commented after Kafeel handed her the piece of paper she was reading.
Kafeel nodded faintly.
“It looks like it did ...”
“This sure is the ringleader, ‘A --“
“Kok you said that, Len?”
“Alah, Bun. I've been very happy that Rara still has a crush on AA, but AA will be so treat him. Macem treats his own sister. But he was the one who felt the kebablasan. Continue to fit with AA want to marry Val, yes this is what it will be. Using Mommy for AA maksa to want to marry Rara ... and really fit anyway, when Aunt Ranti donated her heart to Mommy, it was just verbally, just verbally, there is no written agreement that Aunt Ranti donated her heart to Mommy voluntarily --“
“Mother is stupid yes, Len, ‘A --“
“Udahlah Bun --“
“Sorry Mother, ‘A --“
“But tried only once, ‘A. By the way to Bang Alva.”
“How do you try, Len? .... Rara and her parents have strong evidence to corner us from all sides. Even though AA helped Alva to make you and Mother not go to jail for stealing other people's organs, but we will be faced with the choice to restore the heart of Aunt Ranti if they remain staunchly asking like that. Can anyone guarantee that we can find a donor whose heart matches that of Mother?---“
“Iya anyway, ‘A --“
“And remember, their citizenship is not Indo anymore. And the process of donating your heart is done in Malay. It's not possible that you'll be taken there for investigation. Yeah, maybe Alva can help. Sure. But in the process, you and Mommy will have a difficult time in Malay. And you think AA can calm down with that?...”
“So how about, ‘A? ...kasian Neng Val ---“
“You how else Bun? .... AA love dies equal Val .... But it's not possible, too, AA sacrificed Mother .... Or take risks that could be fatal for Mother .... And a little bit they're right. AA abandoned you once.”
“But that's for dad's sake, ‘A ... besides AA want to restore our family's good name --“
“Still does not change the reality, if AA ever abandoned Mother and Lena --“
“Had to be, Mommy received a helping hand from Rico and Cello. But because Mother was angry with them for the death of the father, for their disbelief in Mother's remarks about the father who was innocent, even though the evidence shows otherwise. So Mother decided to leave the country that Mother used to think was not fair to the father who had served with so much --“
“Already Bun. There will be no end if you want to discuss who is wrong. And as AA said earlier, AA and Val might not be a match-“
♦
His marriage to Rara made Kafeel a very cold person.
“Len, you move to Mother's room. She let me sleep in your room.”
And constancy, in addition to the coldness of Kafeel's attitude, always appeared to the girl who had been his wife.
Then alhokol, became the escape of a Kafeel Adiwangsa.
♦
“AA permit Mother to meet Val, yes?... Meet also Moreno and Kyara and their family-“
“Make what, Bun???... Make what?... Free, Bun... Free..”.
“Mother you know, yes?... The truth is on Val and his family--“
“Then made my sacrifice in vain? I already lost Val, and then I lost Mother too. That?...”<TAG1>
“But if Val finds out, and his family knows why AA married Rara, there's a chance AA and Val could be together again-“
“Mother forgot what we were bound by with Rara and her accursed parents?... Lagian... After Mother told them what the truth was... Mother thought... The Val family will believe it?... Then... Receive me back so?... Not necessarily, Bun... Perhaps you will never believe and accept me again into the midst of them-Mother see how Val was that day... Her family would never accept their daughter being made until so..”.
--
“If only my heart was fit to give to Mother, I would rather die Bun, than I would have to hurt Val to this extent... But on the basis that we are helpless... Looking for a heart donor to replace the heart of Aunt Ranti that Mother now uses it, even for years, not necessarily we find a suitable replacement for Mother... I love Val, Bun... So very... But how can I stand it, if Mother's life is also at stake?...
“Sorry Mother, AA... Maafin Bundaa's... For Mother... AA so suffer..”
“Udahlah Bun, what to say?... Rice is already a porridge--“
♦
The day passed again,
“AA where to go? ...”
“Ke florist, Bun .... Val, it's gonna be a birthday in a minute. I'd like to order her favorite flowers as a gift.”
--
“Sorry, Sir. We no longer provide red tulips for sale – buy for the public again ...”
“Loh, why? I have ordered the flowers several times here kok ..”.
“Yes Sir, I know. You are Mr Kafeel Adiwangsa, right?..”
“Terus why not provide red tulips again?”
“Not provide, Mr .... but our store has signed a contract with the family of Adjieran Smith for the provision of red tulips as of approximately two months ago for in Jakarta only distribute it to them --“
“Oh yes?”
“Iya, Sir. You are not a confidant of Mr Alvarend Aditama, yes?..”
“I'm busy with other affairs.”
“Oh, sorry Mr.”
“I only need one bouquet. Small also ga what ...”
“Please excuse me, Sir. Even for the fifteenth, we have to prepare hundreds of red tulip stalks for the Adjieran Smith family ...”
‘That's right, should be my wedding date and Val??’
“So sorry if we can't help Tuan for a bouquet of red tulips.”
“Not an order of hundreds of red tulips that have been filed before huh?...”
“He's right, Sir. For the wedding ---“
“Ga no cancellation? ...”
“No Sir --“
“Aneh ..”.
“Only change orders only Sir, who was tens now hundreds of stalks on that date ...”
“Heu? ....
“If the seeds and dozens of half-finished red tulip stalks have been sent first --“
“H half-finished red seeds and tulips? ...”
“Emang can? ...”
“It seems they have a special tool to make red tulips can grow in their residence, Mister?... but for one thing I also do not know for sure, sir, because there is already a special staff appointed to take care of it ..”
“True – really can not work a bouquet for me, together with the arrival of hundreds of red tulips as you said earlier?..”
“Sorry, can not Mr.... a single sprig also feels can not, because we have been bound by a contract with the family Adjieran Smith ..”.
“Contract on behalf of Valera? ..”
“Not Mister, but Miss Mikaela ..”
“Mikaela? ...”
“Iya, Mr...”
‘What Mika and Arya will replace me and Val on that day for marriage?...’
♦
‘Damn it!’
Kafeel swore harshly in his heart after he lethargicly walked out of the flower shop he had been visiting.
Then, massaging the temples hard with a heart that Kafeel felt like something was creeping up.
Kafeel was right – really frustrating, because to give Val a gift something that became a favorite little girl beloved it alone could not.
Kafel didn't expect much. He wants to give Val a gift even if he can't see her.
The gift of her little girl's favorite flower as a tool to leave her longing for Val, even though her dream of living with Val has become ashes.
‘Do I need to go to Keukenhof?’
What Kafeel thought after he could not get Val's favorite flowers in his usual place was to buy a flower arrangement for Val if Val was in Jakarta, although not too often as well.
As Kafeel thought of a plan to go where Val's favorite flowers came from, he drove his car to where Kafeel could channel his latest hobby. The liquor store. Then he bought a bottle or two for Kafeel to enjoy.
Too Kafeel enjoy, until he became a heavy drinker now.
♦
And Kafel's habit of making him a heavy drinker turned him into someone who was more than cold.
“AA inget ga, if AA already ngurung Rara in semalem warehouse?...”
“Inget.”
“Mother, take Rara out of there huh?... later Mother nasehatin him so --“
“Starting overnight, it's his new room, Bun ..” Kafeel flat. “I suffer Bun. And I'm gonna make him feel the same pain as me. I don't have a way back to be with Val, because of her. And during that time, the fire that he and his parents have given me, I will make it hell for Rara. So like that too Rara had to endure my treatment for her parents' behavior ...”
Mother Magda exhaled her heaviness, seeing how Kafeel was changing now. The guilt of the eldest child, made Mother Magda resigned despite having often advised Kafeel.
“But AA can not treat Rara like this, ‘A ... she is pregnant, ‘A --“
“........”
“And again, consider that the evil Mother did not think of Rara's condition. What if her parents know AA treats Rara like this?... later Rara will definitely talk to them, and they will make it difficult for AA again.”
“Let's just --“
“’A --“
“Mother can please leave me alone?”
“If AA is angry with Rara, want to lock her up. Brackets in her room, ‘A. Not in the barn. On behalf of humanity, ‘A ..”
“But he and his parents are not human, Bun. Where does any human being ask for a donated heart to be removed again?...”
♦
“Bun, AA like it needs to be taken to a psychiatrist deh--“
“Astagfirullah, Lena ... How can you say that?...”
“Yes sorry, Bun---A's really cool right now. Mother does not realize what?.... try to see how much AA is the same Rara now?.... continue we have been in the same brackets AA when we want to remove Rara from the warehouse. Belom again AA likes to talk to himself, smile – smile of his own, abis it cry, keep shouting – screams, shredding stuff, even AA never hit the bathroom glass.... Since Val .... Lena's scared, Bun. AA reckless, keep Rara tortured to death if AA until think, if Val .... suicide .. because AA considers Rara the cause.”
“Naudzubillah, Lena ..”
“But anything can happen Mother ... even before the news about Val we are horrified, AA ask us to boong same Om Alam and Aunt Yenni whose name Rara kok hpnya can not be contacted using alibi if AA again invite Rara honeymoon since AA ngurung him in the warehouse? long - long they can be suspicious also continue to come here Bun, well what happens if they find Rara in the warehouse?..”
“So how about Lenaa ...”
“Kita --“
“Mother, Lena .... again talking about what?...”
Kafeel's voice was heard, two women nearby who were whispering – whispers in the room was immediately stiffened.
Thinking of the night, Kafeel would come out of his room.
“’A – A --“
“You seem stressed huh?
Kafeel approached, smiling at the two women with an uncaring appearance.
“Engga, A - - -“
“This ...”
Two women near Kafeel who the man loved compactly frowned when Kafeel thrust a thick brown envelope, and an atm card on it.
“Go shopping there.”
“Shop - - -“
“This is the cash in the AA safe. And in this atm, AA savings for marriage Val. Ga kepake .. in addition to AA and Val failed marriage, Val kan --“
“’A --“
“Title AA don't need this money. So you guys use to be happy – happy.”
“AA simple, yes? --“
“Bun ...” to Kafeel. “If AA says Mommy and Lena have to go shopping, that means you have to go shopping ...” her face turns flat. “Ngerti?”
♦
“’A ... mercy ‘A .. please freelanin Rara .... Rara .... Rara promise, won't say anything – what's the same mama and papa .... Rara, will have them take care of our divorce ..”
A frightened female voice sounded inside a warehouse.
“Lo tau? ...”
It was Kafeel who had just spoken, where he visited the girl with the status of his wife who he had packed in the warehouse for so long.
“The girl I love the most in this world killed herself. And I wasn't even given a chance to see him one last time. And all because of lo ...”
To which the frightened Rara was, Kafeel did not take her words, and instead said something else on a different topic.
“’A -- Rara please ..”
Kafeel smiled obliquely.
“Lo sorry same Val? ...”
“Mak – mean, A – akh --“
“Meet him directly at his place now to apologize for forcing me to marry you without giving me a choice ...”
Kafeel tightened the grip on the neck of the woman he sealed in the shed.
♦
“Hey, Baby .... Val, unfortunately Brother. Why punish Brother so ruthlessly?....why did Val have to kill himself Val? .... Why, Val???!!!...” Kafeel is in his room now.
On a figura he spoke, then rebuked.
“Ke – napa .... Val? ... why Val got that close? ... why did Val not just come to Brother and stab Brother to death...”
Then Kafeel decays, while holding the figure that Kafeel is talking to.
Afterwards Kafeel smiled to himself looking at the figure where Val's close-up photo was laughing wide, then Kafeel opened the nightstand drawer beside his bed.
“Silent sister yes? ...”
What Kafeel said, then afterwards Kafeel held the ring when the incision on his wrist was painful.
It hurt, but Kafeel ignored the pain.
Just focus on looking at Val's face in the increasingly blurry figures.
The hand that had been slashed was then slashed.
But one hand that held the knife earlier, has now been clutched tightly to the photo figura that Kafeel spoke to.
‘Meet or not, the important thing is that I am in the same place as you, Val ...’
Before his consciousness was gone, Kafeel sat up and looked at Val's photo with a smile.
Until Val's face in the photo blurred in the view of Kafeel, and everything darkened.
