Laila was standing on the balcony. His eyes looked at the sky filled with kerling stars. The kering makes anyone fascinated. Sometimes Laila's eyes also follow the movement of several luxury cars that leave the yard.
Laila sighed. The relief is quite long. All the way through his mind trying to pierce the memory of Barraq. Until the head hurt, Laila had not managed to remember all the things that had been passed with Barraq when he was in a coma. And Laila was so curious about all those things.
Laila held onto the head. Eyes closed. In his head was milling about flashes of cut events, although faint. I don't know when it happened Laila doesn't know. Even so, only a few flashes of it were able to fill his memory.
"The sky is beautiful. Moreover, there are stars flying." said Attar while standing next to Laila.
Gaining Attar's presence, Laila inched a little to make room for Tidka's vision to get too close to Attar. Smile also expands adorning the beautiful face of Laila.
"But the star is less beautiful than the girl next to me?" attar said in a seductive tone.
"Gombal.." said Laila.
"Rubber. I'm not flirting, La..."
"Hehe..once a woo, keep a woo..."
"Do I have to jump off this balcony, so you can believe..."
"Haha..no need, Tidka need..."
Attar smile. His hand reached into the pocket of his pants.
"If this, would you?" attar said while thrusting the blue box.
Deg.

Laila's attention immediately turned to Attar and Attar's recommended box. Especially the way Attar gave it, so the attention of Laila.
"What's this...? Didn't you give me a gift?"
"Will you marry me...?" attar.
Deg.
.
.
This was the second time Laila felt her heartbeat jump. His blood stream also sang a song that was somehow played with what rhythm. Laila quiet. There are no words that represent how he feels right now or what words are right to give an answer to Attar's expression just now.
"Laila.." call Attar expectantly.
"Sister...I can't do it this fast" Laila said carefully.
"But, didn't you promise. After your surgery, we're getting married?" attar said reminding of the word that is considered a promise.
"Yes. But not so fast. I still have to adapt to my current condition." said Laila trying to explain.
"Is it because of Mr. Oemar Barraq El Khasif?" attar said while looking at Laila.
Apparently he was looking for an answer deep within Laila's beautiful eyes.
"Not completely..."
"Not completely, how? What do you mean?" attar.
From the tone of his speech, it is clear that he is trying to reconcile the heart that is starting various that.
"Sister Barraq and brother Attar themselves said that Laila had traveled while in a coma. And Laila's more with Barraq's brother. Until we feel united..."
"That's when you became a spirit, the fact that when you realized you forgot everything. Wh why? Because the love you felt back then was just a momentary love. It is not love that you will feel in all situations and conditions. La, your true love is only for me." said Attar trying to convince.
"Come, Brother...."
"Why is Laila worried? Did anything happen between him and Barraq when I left a while ago...? But it feels less likely because the time together is so short. I can't get emotional with all this. Hmm, lost my officer's authority if I get there" inner Attar.
"Sister.." said Laila while patting Attar's arm still silent.
"Ah, yes.." said Attar immediately when he got Laila's treatment.
"I understand. And I won't force you again. But...when will I get an answer from you on my wish earlier?" attar tried to be as calm as possible.
A smile that comes from a relief from Attar's understanding.
"Thank you, Brother. The understanding of brother means a lot to me." said Laila.
"You don't know how I feel, Laila. How disappointed? How 'raged? And how I very much expect your decision to side with me.." inner Attar.
"I'm sorry, brother. I cannot give certainty to your expression. I was in doubt, Brother. Especially with the glimpses of this event pieces make me even more curious.." Inner Laila.
"Ndok.." said Wijoyo.
Laila and Attar turned to the owner of the voice that was standing in the balcony doorway.
"Dad.." said Laila who immediately comforted and clutched the man who was always perfect in his eyes.
The one who is not less alert is Attar. Shortly after he learned of Wijoyo's presence, Attar's body immediately behaved perfectly.
"How do you determine the time?" Wijoyo.
"Time...?" laila was half surprised.
His face looked up. His eyes looked at Wijoyo, his father.
"Did Attar not say anything yet?"
Laila lethargic. Wijoyo's answer suddenly folded his curiosity. And wrap the other word tightly that is ready at the tip of the tongue. Laila took off her arms and chose to sit on a chair in the corner of the balcony.
"Emm, Laila still needs time, Ndan. And I understand it." said Attar.
"It takes time? But isn't it like you said, that your relationship will become more serious after the surgery is over? So why change now? What was? I thought everything was going well as planned. Then if it changes, then it seems like Dad does not know his own daughter at this time." said Wijoyo Long expressed his disappointment.
"It's not like that, Dad. Laila wanted to make sure that the flash of this particular piece of events was some time imaginary and not a fact as Attar said..."
"You want to prove my point or Oemar Barraq El Khasif's words" Attar said.
The officer who was in the middle suddenly stood up. His face clearly showed annoyance.
"Sorry, Ndan. It seems like the plan didn't go smoothly. And thus, I have to return my parents back to my hometown..."
"Or.. old man, you say? Are they here?" laila gagu said.
He was struck with an unpleasant taste.
"In my house." said Attar.
His eyes looked at Laila just then.
"Sorry, Ndan. Please go home. It's night. And I also can't leave father and mother too long at home..."
"Be careful. And give my regards to both your parents." said Wijoyo.
Next to his hand pat Attar's shoulder with a smile. A gesture meant for Attar to be patient and strong in facing Laila, his favorite daughter.
And the treatment was reciprocated Attar with a smile and a small nod. A sign of respect was given before Attar passed and left the balcony.
"Dad doesn't understand the way you think now, Laila." said Wijoyo.
"Dad.." said Laila as she grabbed Wijoyo's arm and held him.
"Attar's a good man, Ndok. Dad knows for sure. The movements and pace of his career have always been a concern of father..."
"It's not enough dad..."
"Ow. Besides being kind, Attar is also honest, polite, and more importantly he loves you with all his heart"
"Yes, Attar's perfect Dad. But...."
"But what, Ndok...? Did you find the flaws?" Wijoyo.
"Our daughter does not love her." said Arini who suddenly was behind the two.
Arini also grabbed the other arm of Wijoyo. The woman who had been more than thirty years accompanying Wijoyo spread her head while gently rubbing the arm in front of her.
"Like us, Dad. We love each other. And mothers want our children to be so with their partners. Loving and being loved...."
"Mother.." said Wijoyo.
His arm grabbed Arini and carried him in his arms at the same time as Laila. Wijoyo seemed to sigh. His eyes glared at the sky. And once in a while he divided the kisses on the heads of Laila and Arini.
