I'm begging..

It has been a week since Akbar's departure. The days that Naya spent were filled with sadness and tears. Until this week, Naya still lamented Akbar's departure. He knew what he was doing was wrong. His religion did not allow himself to wail like this. But whatever the power, she is just a girl who was destroyed because of the departure of her beloved.

Naya only talks as necessary, she won't talk if no one asks. Eating was not appetizing, only a little eating until his body now looks thin, even his college is now neglected.

"Nay.babang in.." After knocking on the door, Ken went inside. As before, he would see his sister daydreaming on the balcony of his room. Look at the sky with a blank look. Ken really couldn't see it.

Ken turned his head when he felt his shoulder being patted by someone. A smile grew on Ken when his eyes saw who was coming.

"Let me try.." Ken nodded at the request of his best friend who seemed to have just arrived.

Ken chose to leave his sister's room. Every day seeing Naya who had no spirit in life really hurt her.

"Kay.."

Naya turned her head as soon as she heard the call. Even without even bothering to turn his head, he knew who was calling him.

"Any behind my sister?". Tanya Naya shrieked, very soft. Al has not come 3 days to see him. Usually, the man will visit Naya's house every day to see Naya's condition. But due to work, Al was forced to return to his company for a few days.

" Hmm.." Al crouched down in front of Naya who was sitting in her chair.

"Eat yuk.." Invite Al to be answered by Naya's head.

"Yaudah.i am here". Al got up, then sat down in the other seat there.

Naya looked at him. Staring at the eyes that always radiate affection for him. He also loves Al, just like Ken and Kai. Somehow, he felt more comfortable now crying near Al than his two brothers.

Not because of what, Naya realized that her two brothers were married. He did not want to be a burden for both, even though his two brothers-in-law would not mind him.

"Sister hasn't eaten yet?". Tanya Naya who clearly knew if the man had not eaten, evident from the sound of worms in Al' stomach that sounded loud enough to be heard by Naya.

Al shook his head. The smile never faded from his face as he looked at Naya's face.

" You're getting thinner Kay.." Al stroked the back of Naya's hand which looked very thin.

"Eat yaaa.." The Al

Naya looked into those eyes. Why does he seem to see the loving gaze that he often sees from Akbar's eyes. His eyes were heating up, as fast as lightning he turned his face away.

"Eat ya..slightly also gapapa". Al is still trying to persuade

" Want out?". Al asked which immediately made Naya look at him.

"We keep eating brother anter to Akbar..ya??". This is the story of Al. With this, Al was sure Naya would want to eat. And sure enough, Naya nodded with a faint smile.

" Let's eat Princess Kanaya now.." Al reached out his hand and greeted Naya. Al took Naya's hand and brought her down to the dining room.

While both Naya's parents and older sister sighed in relief seeing Naya coming out of her room and eating with them. Because usually Naya will only eat in the room.

"Sit baby.." Kirei quickly welcomed his son. He shifted the chair for Naya. Then he immediately filled Naya's plate with fried rice that had been cooked by mbok Ning. Naya's favorite fried rice.

"Enough mom.." Naya held onto Kirei's hand who was about to add rice to her plate.

"But that's a little dear. It's your favorite fried rice.." Persuade Kirei but Naya shook her head.

Tama holds his wife's hand when she sees that Kirei will persuade Naya again. He shook his head, hinting his wife to shut up and continue eating.

Al sighed heavily, it had been a week, and Naya was still engrossed in grief and her loss to Akbar.

"Eat a lot ya..." Al stroked the head of Naya who only nodded weakly. Slowly the skinny hand scooped his fried rice and put it in his mouth. His memory again revolves around the memory of the days he spent with Akbar.

Naya blinked her eyes several times to ward off her tears. He did not want to keep his parents and brother worried. He tried, he tried to make Akbar go away. But it's not as easy as others say. He has not been able to shake it. There were too many good memories between her and Akbar.

Although tasted bland, Naya forced herself to finish her fried rice. He had to quickly finish it, Al had promised to take him to Akbar's tomb after this.

"I'll wait outside.." Al walks to the porch of the house, while Naya returns her room to change clothes.

"I.." Tama's voice made her look. He is currently waiting for Naya who is preparing.

"You're going to the tomb again?". Tama asked who answered a nod of the head by Al.

" Is it okay if it keeps going like this? ". Tanya Tama was worried. The reason is only if there is Al alone Naya went to the tomb. His parents and two brothers were reluctant to take Naya because they thought that Naya would be difficult to forget Akbar if he often visited the tomb.

" Naya now all she needs is this..Let him overflow all his sadness in Akbar's words. Al sure sooner he'll be able to mengikhlaskannya". Al said sure, although honestly he himself was not sure of his words.

Tama exhaled her heavy breath before patting Al on the shoulder several times.

"Om take Naya to you Al. Give him back as he was". Al can see the despair from the tone of Tama's voice and face. Despite the hesitation, Al nodded his head steadily.

Before long Naya came out with her black shirt as well as a black scarf covering her head.

" Are you ready??". Tanya Al answered a nod of the head by Naya.

"Nay go dad". Naya kisses the back of Tama's hand and replies to Tama by hugging Naya.

" Go back to being our Naya, son. Daddy's waiting". Tama took off her embrace and wiped away the tears in her daughter's eyes.

"Assynoltomodel.." Naya turned and walked ahead of Al who said goodbye to Tama.

And here they both were, sprinkling flowers on a mound of land that was still not too dry while offering prayers for their loved ones. Al patiently waited for Naya who just kept quiet beside Akbar's tomb while occasionally stroking the photo of the man who was still there.

Even after an hour had passed Al did not complain at all about the heat of the rising sun. After some time passed, Naya finally got up. As usual, the girl will say goodbye first to Akbar.

"Gue behind Bar.lo quiet down there. I'll take care of our Kanaya even with my own life". Al crouched down for a moment and stroked Akbar's tombstone before finally turning around and chasing after Naya who walked first.

" Come with me.." Al who had just entered directly put on his seat belt.

"Where? Nay wants to go home." refuse Naya

" I'm sorry Kay.not accept any reason and not accept rejection". Cut Al fast before Naya manages to express her wish.

"Why brother so be a pussy anyway". Naya's grumbling makes Al laugh.

Along the way Naya only pay attention to the streets, her brain still can not escape from the shadow of Akbar who continues to dance beautifully in the memory of her brain.

" Okay.down yuk". Naya awakens from her long daydream when Al slaps her shoulder. He spread his gaze to a place that still felt foreign to him.

"Where is this brother?". Tanya Naya hesitates, but she follows Al to open his seatbelt and get out of the car.

His eyes stared at the astonishment of the artificial lake that was in front of his eyes. The scenery around the lake was so beautiful that it made him amazed.

" It's so beautiful.." Said Naya who was still staring in amazement at the scene that was presented before her eyes.

"Still more beautiful you Kay.let alone if you smile". Al Mumbles

" What brother?". Al gaspapan, he did not expect Naya would hear his murmur.

"No-no. There's nothing". Elak Al covered his nervousness.

" Likes?". Al asked who saw the slight twinkle of happiness in my eyes.

"Hmm.this is so beautiful". Naya looked around her once more. His heart and mind suddenly felt more peaceful and calm now. He turned his head quickly when he saw Al sitting on a stretch of green grass without any pedestal. He then followed and sat beside Al who was also staring at the clear water of the lake.

" Sister comes here often?". Ask Naya without seeing Al.

"Hmm.it used to be". Answer Al

" It is rare now. I used to come here when I was sad, had a lot of problems or was feeling upset". Al's words made Naya look over. He looked at that handsome face from the side, still the same.

Naya instantly averted her gaze when Al suddenly turned to her with a sweet smile, as sweet as honey. To see that smile, even Naya was unable to dream. Because the man next to him was so cold and almost untouchable. Why should he smile so sweetly now.

"I know it's hard Kay.even very-" Naya turned her head back, and found Al had looked back at the lake. He knew where this man was talking.

"I haven't been able to sis.it's like a nightmare to me". Lirih Naya who stared blankly at the lake in front of him.

" Surely.I know this must be difficult. It's even very difficult.." Al sighed again, as if filling his lungs with a lot of oxygen that felt quickly depleted.

"For me, it's Kay's nightmare. I want to wake up from this nightmare". Naya looked back at Al who was also staring at her.

" Sister.." Lirih Naya made Al smile sadly.

"Here--' Al pointed right at his chest'. Here is very sick Kay.sak is increasingly felt when you see slumped like this". Al again threw away his sight. Avoid those beautiful eyes that have started to dew.

" I'm afraid Kay.fear if suddenly I go after Akbar-"

"Sister.!!!" Naya cried quickly before Al finished with his sentence.

"I'm afraid Akbar will ask me why I didn't take care of you and make you smile again". Although Al knew Naya did not want to hear, she still finished her sentence.

" I can't stand Kay's disappointment.." Al tilted his body. Cupping Naya's face which was apparently wet with tears.

"I beg Kay.I beg you to get up. If not for yourself, at least get up for the people who love and love you Kay". Al wiped Naya's tears with his thumb.

" You may cry as much as you now Kay.but after this-"

"After this I beg you to rise. Live again as our Kanaya..The cheerful Kanaya that always makes us smile".

" Akbar will be very sad to see you like this Kay.he will blame her for making you what you are today". Word after word that came out of Al's mouth made Naya's tears flow more and more.

"So I beg you.please be our old Kanaya again.." Pinta Al laden will plead.

Naya was unable, she slammed into Al's arms and hugged him tightly. He poured out all the sadness that he could not express for several days with tears. He was afraid to make everyone worried.It seems true, his loved ones were so hurt and sad with his condition like this.

"Huaaaaa. Why would Brother Blue leave me". Naya's cry broke out in Al's embrace which could only stroke Naya's back.

" Why don't I just say.why brother Bi-ru".

"I love you, Brother Blue. I love him.kena-pa..why he could stay in me". Sick, Al's heart hurt many times, it felt like there were dozens of arrows that hit right in his heart. The woman he loved loved so much as other men. Strong him? Can he fill the heart of the girl who seems to have been filled with a name.

" Why kaaak???". Naya further immersed her face into the field of Al who could only grimace grimacing hearing Naya's cry. Luckily the lake is in a quiet condition because today is an ordinary working day.

Naya cried for a long time in Al's arms. And all the man did was shut up and listen to all the words spoken from the tiny lips. Al hopes that after Naya's cry subsides, the girl will try to live her life again, rearranging her life that had been damaged by Akbar's departure.

Al heard the regular breathing of the girl he was still holding warmly, indicating that the beautiful girl was asleep. You may be tired of crying for too long and talking.

"It must be hard for you, huh, Kay??"

"It's hard for me too, Kay. Looking at you, the woman I love is blown to pieces like this because of the man you love". Al chuckled softly as he stroked Naya's cheek.

" Why can our love story be this complicated, Kay. Could it..Maybe I can make you as happy as she makes you happy?? Or indeed my status can only guard and protect you as a brother". Al continued to speak for himself. Spilling the tightness that shackled his heart.

"Whatever it is.I hope you get up Kay. Return to being a strong and cheerful Kanaya. Although I'm not the one who will make that smile again adorn your beautiful face, but I hope you will be able to smile again like before".

" I'm devastated to see you like this.more broken than the destruction you feel Kay". Al cried, the man returned to being a crybaby.

"Sister..." Lirih Naya makes Al freeze. Did Naya hear everything?? Will Naya stay away from him after this? Al is haunted by bad prejudices that make his heart more uncertain.

Long he was silent, waiting for what speech would come out of Naya's tiny lips, but nil. Al ventured to loosen his arms. Seeing Naya still asleep with regular breathing made Al breathe a sigh of relief. At least Naya doesn't know about her true feelings.

"We're going home, Kay.." Al carries Naya's body. I don't know how many times he's carried the girl's body.

That afternoon Kanaya was completely asleep after spilling all the flavors that were squeezing her chest. His face looked calmer in his sleep. Unlike the previous sleep, he will always delirious and end up waking up with sweat soaking his face.
