Hugging Lover in Prayer

Hugging Lover in Prayer
Still waiting for you



A beautiful village, with flowers and shady trees in it. The village is also home to many artificial lakes, with lounge chairs on the edge of the road. A beautiful morning on holiday, in contrast to Syailendra who had gathered at the dining table with Abi, Umma and Mecca, Arjuna was still at home sitting in the chair while staring at the lake. Birds chirping with each other, Arjuna again felt jealous of this creature of God. Many of those who pair off each other perched on a tree branch, just as Syailendra finally managed to propose to Yasmine and the proposal was accepted. While he is exactly like a single sparrow among other sparrows.


While contemplating self-determination, Arjuna was startled by a figure across the lake. The woman was standing across there, staring blankly into the lake. That's Salwa, she's alone in there. I don't know what brought him to this village. The atmosphere is cool but quiet, people enjoy the morning on the plateau more than on the lake. The road in this village goes down and up, so it is not strange to be on a high street while others are in a lower place (Vibes Swiss villages).


A little step forward and still with eyes that are difficult to understand. There is a sense of worry in Arjuna, Salwa is seen to raise feet on the wooden fence restrictions of the road and lake.


Oh don't-don't Salwa want to kill herself???. There was no one else nearby, just a bunch of Moms some distance away from the location but still visible, unfortunately no one noticed my man Salwa among them.


Once upon a time, Salwa had difficulty standing on the fence. After a little effort, he finally did. As the woman stretched out both hands, Arjuna ran to meet her.


Foolish with the circumstances, the identity he hid from Salwa is not important for now, however they have met in person.


"Don't Salwa!! no!!" arjuna's heart cried.


While Salwa, the corner of this woman's lips lifted up"Cool air" muttered in that small smile.


Once again Salwa took a breath.....


"Don't!!" Arjuna came pulling Salwa's body until they fell together.


Mecca who was sent to look for Arjuna was surprised when he saw the incident. Seeing the brother fall he immediately ran over"Abaaaagggg!!" exclaim that girl.


The pace of Mecca followed a group of mothers who were not far from the place. Just like Arjuna, they also thought that Salwa would kill herself.


While helping Arjuna to wake up"Bang Arjuna did not pa-pa??. Is there a wound?."


Arjuna!!!


"What if I wanted to kill myself??" The mothers helped Salwa to wake up. His arm was injured from the asphalt rub.


Realizing the woman was Salwa, the mothers immediately said"Ehh neng Salwa. Even if there is a problem, suicide is not the right solution. Poor Dad same mommy later."


"Yaahh neng Salwa. If you want to commit suicide do not here dong, later this beautiful lake becomes haunted" attacked the other Mother.


"Neither-" Salwa had trouble interrupting, because the mothers were busy chattering under her own assumptions.


A gray handkerchief, Arjuna tied the wound without speaking to Salwa.


"I'm sorry, I was wrong. It seems Salwa had no intention to commit suicide, I was mistaken."


"Kirain wants to bun---."


"I just want to enjoy this cool air, by standing on this fence" pointed at the footing earlier.


"Sorry Mothers, we were wrong. Please Mothers return to their original place" Arjuna quickly interjected.


"It's cold for Arjuna."


"It's not cold, Mom, it's a baby!" sambar Mecca's.


"Have, Mothers have returned to that place."


"But neng arms Salwa--."


"It was in the bandage of Abang. It's safe now!" Mecca began to raise the tone, upsetting the mothers to leave in front of them.


Arjuna's...A name that is not easy to forget. After the mothers left, Salwa ventured to look at Arjuna.


"The Masnya name of Arjuna?."


"Yes" said Arjuna flat.


"Wasn't he the one who used to borrow an umbrella?."


"Yes" said Arjuna again. Mecca was like a goat sponge, his head turned to Arjuna as Arjuna spoke. Then he turned to Salwa as Salwa spoke.


"The original inhabitants of this village?."


"Yes" again, Arjuna replied in a flat tone.


Jemari Salwa started clutching each other, nervousness began to approach"Once again I will ask" whispered the heart.


"And you know who I am?."


"Yes. You are Salwa Al-Adnan, the lady of the village next door."


This woman took a step back, building more distance between herself and Arjuna. Given that he had met twice before, and Arjuna already knew who he was from the beginning, the bristles of Salwa immediately brushed.


"Why do you want to get out?? brother's hand is bleeding" Mecca resisted Salwa's action about to take off the handkerchief.


Back step back"Anu----. I'm not pa-pa!. This ha-just a small wound" looks frightened, Salwa tries to leave in Arjuna's presence. While Arjuna looked inside Salwa with a difficult gaze.


"I will treat it at home" Salwa said again.


"Just bring the handkerchief" said Arjuna saw Salwa had trouble letting go.


"Ta--but---."


"Just bring. Didn't you bring my umbrella that day?."


"Oh, have you met?. You're friends, aren't you?."


Salwa couldn't answer Mecca's question. He just stayed with his eyeballs running.


"You're alone here?."


"Yes" he still tried to calm himself.


"Want me to drive you home?."


"Don't!!." Lekas Salwa refused"No need" he said more slowly.


"Yes if you don't want to be in between. Bang let's go home, Abi same Ummi was waiting at the dinner table" Mecca pulled Arjuna's arm, as if to drag the tall strapping young man.


"Before Mecca, can you talk to Salwa for a minute?."


Salwa shook her head, it felt like there was nothing for them to talk about. Or, may Arjuna want to make a calculation because his proposal was rejected??. It was a long time ago, but each of them still remembered it clearly.


"His name is Salwa. What a pretty name. Can't if Mecca just call Sister Wawa?."


While swallowing saliva in the choked throat"I-iya. Surely" Salwa's heart shrieked because Arjuna continued to look at him.


"Abang talk for a moment with Sister Wawa, Mecca can wait for Abang in the chair there" while pointing at a lounge chair near them.


"Okay, don't be so long, Mecca's hungry."


Arjuna smiled at Mecca"Yes. My brother is hungry too." So tender Arjuna looked at Mecca and spoke to him. Salwa who was originally afraid is now not too afraid anymore.


"If he dares to mess around, I will shout" whispered Salwa's heart.


He allowed Salwa to sit in another chair, while she sat on the fence.


"What are you talking about?." Salwa asked started to casually speak.


"How are you?."


Next to Salwa's eyebrows raised up"I'm good."


"Seriously?."


Now Salwa's forehead is made wrinkled, confused by Arjuna's question.


"While there's a lot of trouble coming your way, are you sure you're okay?."


Staring at Arjuna sharply in a split second, Salwa realized for sure this was about her household problems that had run aground. Anger began to rise in him, because everyone knew the problems of his life.


"Ck! this is how hard it is to know so many people!!. So, you want to make fun of me who failed to get married, after rejecting your proposal?." Both of Salwa's hands were seen on her chest, was that her body language when she was angry? Arjuna almost saw it.


"Even when you are angry you are adorable" whispered Arjuna's heart.


"No!!. I didn't taunt you" Arjuna was silent for a moment after saying that. Making Salwa eyebrows that were originally linked to anger is now normal again.


"Want to?."


"I'm still waiting for you."


Salwa was at a loss for words. Do not expect the person who was rejected outright still expects himself.
