HOLLOWS

Everyone started looking for them

Sumbi and Adam opened the window curtain while half peeking outside. Not finding what was in search, the curtain closed again while exhaling the hunt. Five minutes later, he peeked back. So on until the appearance of his son faintly faint from a distance.

" Why is Adam's mother?" Ask Arga confused. " Mom is waiting for Your Brother, why still haven't come home. He said today he'll be home soon!" Sumbi replied without taking his eyes back. Adam pouted while eating his favorite lollipop prep. " Are we just looking for Ma'am, afraid that Brother Anta is lost?". The youngest made them smile. His mother who was resuscitating meekly, slowly rubbed her head while grinning. " Your brother couldn't have gotten lost, hasn't he been in this area for a long time?". " Who knows, Brother Anta got lost to a woman's house first, Mom!" Chirps Arga that immediately made his mother shocked. " Huus, don't talk carelessly. Bang Anta can't be rich like that, not good to think bad with his own brother." Peg the Sumbi on his slightly haughty son. " Yes, yeah, yaaa!" Arga answered while being played. His mother shook her head and immediately took Adam, the youngest away from there.

" All that Bang Anta has always done, must always be allowed. How do you do it, so that Brother Anta looks bad in front of Mom?" " All this I did was to make Brother Anta a deterrent, not to interfere in my affairs again, who asked yesterday to throw My feast, now this is the reply. Wait for my dear brother, my vengeance." Continued Arga muttered while smiling cunningly looking out the window.

Anta, Ressa and Zerina are still on the lake's shores. They make bonfires to warm their cold bodies. Ressa looks very close to Anta, she continues to shift her position while smiling a small smile. " Apaan the hell Ressa, wear close to hold the same Anta. Anta was also crushed, instead of defending herself?" Zerina muttered a little annoyed.

" Ets, wait a minute. I should have taken care of my heart and mind more. Why do I always forget, if I'm doing hijrah." " Astagfirrullahhaladzhim" continued Zerina's small words while shaking her head.

" Ata, it's cold tonight, isn't it?" Spoiled Ressa. " Yes, it's cold, isn't it, Zerina?". Replied Anta who immediately asked the hijab-wearing girl who was daydreaming. " Oh, yes Anta. Because we'll be on the lake shore so it's not wrong, if the air is cold here." After Zerina made things clear, Anta slowly asked the two of them very carefully.

" Ressa, Zerina... You guys till when will it stay here. You're not worried about your family back home, who knows they're worried about you now?" Ressa raised her face slightly upwards. Zerina poked her head slightly to the side after hearing Anta's question." I don't knowuu!" Answer Ressa and Zerina together.

" Not good, you guys keep dodging like this. It is not that the problem must be faced, if it continues to avoid it. When will it be finished?" Ask back Anta by raising her tone this time.

" I'm afraid there's Leonard at home, she's the same Mom she must be waiting for. To force me to quickly marry him again." Said Zerina a little afraid to answer the question that continues to be rained by Anta. " Are you in love not the same as Leonard?" Zerina and Ressa were shocked to hear Anta asking such a question.

Anta fell silent in the daydream that made her even more eager to end the matter, with a slightly pressurized tone of speech, the young man questioned her to Zerina. " What are your plans, we've pretended before, that I'm your girlfriend?" Ressa immediately stood up, then swiped both ears like they were hot. " Whataaa?" " When did you guys do that play, ko I don't know?" Ressa asked a little worriedly. " Well, I said earlier, we're just pretending to be dating, not really, isn't Zerina?" Anta fends off Ressa's question to be given Zerina pepper. " Yes, that's just as much, for Leonard to go back and not force me to marry him" "Ohh," Ressa was a little relieved to hear that, then started hissing at Anta. " But you don't really like it, do you, Same Zerina?" Anta shook her head, and Zerina looked at her with a plea from earlier. " If you do that again, I'll be very grateful to you." His small words were immediately replied by Ressa. " But don't take a chance in narrowness either, do you?" " I want to ask you, you're actually ready, Anta anyway? You seem to be holding Him too tight?" Zerina was determined to her two friends. " Stttt, can't you guys just shut up, your ears are so dizzy to hear it?" Shouted Anta breaking them. Ressa and Zerina grinned, because Anta was wrong in speaking. " It should be your dizzy head, not your ears!".

Anta was a little embarrassed but that did not stop her from talking about something that could clarify the relationship between the three of them.

" We've only known each other for two days, but it's like you've known me a long time. I look at you from your eyes at me, very different. From there I'd argue, if you guys seem to want to, that I'm giving you more of a relationship."

" But after I have traced your lives even deeper. You're no ordinary woman, you have another life with a man who may really love you. Even if you think it's wrong, you should think further before deciding to live with him first."

" Dutiful you must understand. Farren wouldn't have been this determined if He hadn't seriously loved you Ressa. Instead Leonard, Zerina... If you open your heart to forgive Him, I believe, your old love will grow back and you can fix it all."

" I don't want to be a thorn in the flesh in any of your relationships, or a destroyer even worse, I don't want to be a surrogate man or more like a spare tire."

" You're adults, not children anymore. You must be able to solve the problem in your own way, without asking for help from others. You guys understand, right?"

So long Anta explained to the two women in front of him. They seem to regret realizing all their mistakes. It's true that they have been too hopeful for Anta, for her to want to solve their problems with lies that they make themselves without realizing, if all this time Anta has been tormented by their drama.
