I MISS A SIMPLICITY

part 24's

I opened my eyes and realized when around me stood four beautiful angels. An angel? Are they really angels? Then, what is this place? I lay on a golden throne and on a fine tapestry. I was wearing an oversized shirt made of soft silk. Am I in Heaven? So this is heaven?

"D-ian? Ian, you know what, son? Your fate is so gini le"

Sayub sayub I heard that voice spoken from one of the angels. Uh but, I seem to know the owner of that voice?

"I-busy?" I said shiver. How did I get here? And that, Mba Ayu? Kiki's? Endang MBA? Why are they gathered here too?

"Dian? Are you conscious?" ask Mba Endang.

"I-I'm where?" ask me back.

"Ki, please call the doctor yes," said Mba Endang.

"Yes mba," Kiki replied, then left the room.

I myself am still confused by all this.

"Argh.." I tried to hold my head which was still very sore and painful.

"Already, you calm down Ian, do not use to think first, you are safe here," said Mba Ayu softly.

I feel like deja vu.

"Argh.." I just remembered.

The last time I realized it was that night, when I was dealing with...

"Argh.." I groaned again. Trying to remember something and all I remember is.

"Gita? How's Gita doing?" ask me in panic.

"Gita is safe Ian, you are calm" explained Mba Ayu.

"really? Where is He now?" ask me again.

There was no response from the three of them. Mba Ayu seemed hesitant to answer. While Mba Endang, his facial features suddenly sour.

"It's le, you calm down, you don't have to think about anything first, yes" replied Ibuk. Of course I agree. But in my heart I am still curious. Why are they hiding something?

Not long after, Kiki and a few more people came in. There was a doctor, Mr, Mas Rizal, and Tiara. I immediately smiled seeing the appearance of Tiara. That kid, always makes me smile. The doctor checked me out. The others enthusiastically watched me. I don't know what the doctor checked. I didn't pay much attention. My head is still too dizzy. But I don't know what I'm dizzy about. Like there's something. Diah.

"Diah.." I said somewhat shouting while trying to get up.

"So calm, son, calm down, let you be examined first, hyks.." said Ibuk to calm me while crying.

"How long have I been unconscious, Mom?" ask me. There's no answer. Everything quiet.

"HOW LONGAAA?" ask me again loudly. Still no answer.

"WHY ARE YOU SILENT? ANSWER THAT!! HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN CONSCIOUS? HYX...HIKS.." I didn't feel like I was shedding tears. It felt so tight on my chest. I tried to fight with all my might. Father, and Mas Rizal is getting stronger holding me. Then I felt a needle stab into my right arm. My feelings then became a little calm. My body then weakened. My vision then turned dark. And it's getting darker. I also slept in tranquility.

***

Destiny cannot be changed. Even when we have the intention and effort to change it. As powerful as it is, when God's destiny says otherwise, we can only live it, patiently. Maybe that's the best. It's been a week since I woke up, or two weeks since that bloody incident. Yes, I have missed my only chance to fight for Diah. And all that because, "Argh.".", again I groan regretted all that had happened. Diah has received a proposal from her parents' chosen man.

But I never blamed him. It was all because of his compulsion that could not refuse his Father's request. By compulsion? Yes, I'm sure. We know each other's hearts. And I don't doubt it. Now I'm still lying helpless in this bed. Fortunately, there are still my family and new friends who come to visit me almost every day.

"Cock-a-luck anyway?" I didn't answer, just shook my head.

"Diah would have thought?" ask again in a sad tone.

For almost a week he's been asking me why I'm so moody. Questions I'm sure he already knows the answer. But I never agreed because I didn't want to add to the burden. Yes, He, who is none other than the Gita, feels very guilty about what happened to me. I don't know if the guilt came from his own heart or because of Mba Endang. How about Mba Endang? Yes, because Mba Endang had raged at him at that time.

He said so, because at that time I was not aware. So the story goes, I heard this story from Kiki, on the night of the incident, Mba Endang rampaged to Gita after hearing the chronology of the story that he had not heard from whom. Maybe because of events that once happened, it still creates a bad impression for Mba Endang to make it very sensitive to the Gita.

But fortunately now Mba Endang can understand the position. That's because again I lied by saying that Andre and his friends had nothing to do with Gita. Me and Gita were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Then why should I lie? If Andre gets caught and opens his mouth, then Gita will get hit. And it's ruined Mr. Weily's plan. After all, Andre and his friends have been settled by Mr. Weily.

So as for Andre's problem, they're all known to be purely criminal, with no particular motive. And the only ones who know that this is revenge are me and Gita. Kiki and Doni don't know.

"All because of me. Sorry yes" he said sadly.

"I've been sorry about you from the beginning" I said.

"But, you twice almost lost your life, and now, Diah." he continued.

"Here it is, all has happened, what else? Maybe that was his destiny. No matter how hard we try to change it, if God wills, what can we do?" say me.

"You really are, yes" he said, bowing.

"The heart of all humans is the same, depending on the person who wants to raise it or not. I just want to pesen with you, if you are really sorry, change a little of your nature. Not just for me, but for the people around you. Especially for your Papa, don't ever think he doesn't love you, he loves you so much, there are no parents who don't love their children, the problem is just how they give it" I said.

"W-yeah, I know, I'm gonna try to change my attitude. Help me, will you? Hehehe," he asked with a spoiled smile. Sweet thought I was too. But still lost far when compared to Diah.

"Kok me?"

"Yes, you watch and take care of me if I'm afraid again, hihihi."

“My life has been too much trouble Git, ngawasin you are already rich people not only work,” reply I cuek.

“Ah you mah..”

"Why?" ask me.

"Father, hehehe, so what?"

"Yes-yes, the important thing is that you turn into a sweet child Mr. Weily," I replied.

"Kok you nothing for Papa anyway? don't-don't you guys..."

"Don't-don't what?" I asked back while shaking his head.

"The abbot is very similar Papa, I'll be suspicious, hahaha."

"Your father has done a lot of Git."

"Huh? To die? For?"

"Directly to Mas Rizal, indirectly to my family."

"What the hell do you mean?"

"Other times if there's free time I'm clear, and you also have to tell me why you've been acting like this all this time?"

"What's this like?"

"Sokay know!" his protest was unwilling to admit that his heart was actually good.

"Anything, the little boy you bought ate the same you gave money in the car park is proof, hahaha," I laughed.

“You know the boy?”

“Iya lah, hahaha,” my laughter again.

“So you've been spying on me all this time? Ian Ngeselin! Sebel ah!” his protest again with a manyun face yet funny and adorable.

“Only, I happened to see you that day. But ndaknah guess yes, in the end the boy who nolongin us both.”

“Yes, I did not think it turned out that the village was around the camp.”

“Well, I've often said, do good to the person - there will be no harm, who knows one day we who change need help. Conversely, if we are evil with people, it could be that someday we will get his karma.”

"Yes, sorry…"

"And one more," I continued.

"Otherwise?" reply with anxiety. Very amusing.

"How's the story they both got along with you like now."

"They?" ask her back.

"Mba Endang and Kiki. I asked the two of them directly, no one wants to tell me."

"Kepo huh? hyahi."

"You think?"

"Hahaha, I'll tell you later. But the condition is you have to excuse meuh, deal?" he nodded with excitement.

"You don't have a bargaining position" I replied firmly, but actually joking. But he seems to take it seriously. Seen from his face. Polos is also a child. At the beginning I obviously forgave him, use him again.

"In the future no one knows it will be like. You may promise to change, but I'm sorry I didn't need your appointment. Just shut up and prove it, which I'm sorry for. Whether you want to change or not" I said with a smile.

"Udah, anyway now we start all over again yeah, we're friends now," I continued while ruffling her hair.

"Iiihhhh don't get it, you'll never be beautiful again" she protested while tidying her hair back up. But then he nodded.

"We're friends now" he said, repeating my words earlier. He then stretched out his little finger.

"Eh?" i'm rattled.

"As a sign we're friends now" he said.

"Hehehe" I just smiled. Then welcome her pinky with my pinky.

"Thank you Ian," he said, then spread out a little and hugged my right arm. Golly, his chewy. The bonus! The bonus! Tepok.

"Sir Weily, I did it, hehe." Say me in my heart. It doesn't matter if I have to feel this way. Diah's problem, maybe I'll try her again. Once there's time I'll go straight home to see him.

Gita still lowered her head while hugging me. Not good actually I'm in a position like this, if anyone suddenly comes in and sees we will definitely think of a variety. And sure enough, I haven't finished thinking about it yet, the door is completely open.

Chequelek

"Eh, sorry," the voice of a woman, Kiki.

Gita immediately got up, it appears Gita gave a smile to Kiki. Something new this time I saw while living in Jakarta. A Gita smiled at Kiki. Haha.

"Kiki?" we both were shocked.

"Don't tell me you're coming here?" ask me. Gita nudged my hand. Ah my question, tepok jidat again.

"Emang should say yes? if I interrupt me back, hehehe," she replied with a slightly forced smile and almost shut the door.

"Eh don't Ki, come on in, Ian likes it, if he likes it then, come on in," take Gita to Kiki while getting up and grabbing Kiki's arm and pull her in. It's also funny to see these two pretty girls now becoming familiar after being hostile because of Me.

"Yes anyway, Ian is too much as he is, hehehe" Kiki responded.

"And too simple, rich you Ki, hihihi," continued Gita.

"Iihhh Gita what the hell?" kiki's face looked red.

"Oiya by the way you were from what time Git?" go to Gita.

"From morning, it was the same Papa as well, but Papa has no business so long ago. I was left alone" replied Gita sadly.

"Calm down, it's me now, hehe. Mba Endang and the others?"

"Obviously, if you always go to Tiara school, Mas Rizal is as rich as Papa, go too."

“Oiya, it's Tuesday, hehe."

"Ehem.." I deliberately cleared my throat. It's so cool they think I am. Which I was looking for. Why am I being diced? Basic lady. If you have talked, you will forget everything.

"There are people who feel dyed kanya Ki, hihihi," said Gita.

"Yes Git's rich, hehehe, uh yeah, but really so go home today right? I came here on purpose who knows I can help you clean up" Kiki explained.

"So, but most of the afternoon, wait for Mas Rizal, will use his car," I replied.

"Oh that," he replied.

"Oiya, Doni how are you?" I asked Doni because he hadn't visited me in a week. If it's just communication, we're still in touch.

"He's healthy, but he's busy, right now Freelance."

"Freelance what?"

"So the band's crew is that if it's not wrong, so it works if the band wants to play a gig."

"Oh so, what a pity, there's something that goes on and on and on" replied me again with a wicked smile to the Gita.

"Huh? Seriously? Wh who? There is a lot of progress that nyariin Doni, hahaha," replied Kiki.

"Well, next to you is the man" I joked.

"Heh, good, slander that Ki, never did I nyariin Doni, amit-amit deh," replied Gita with an annoyed face.

"Hahaha," Kiki and I laughed in response to her reaction.
