Let Me Choose

A cup of warm chocolate

Retno, I have been in the middle of a refugee society whose condition is very alarming, we really need to look and be in the middle of them so that we can be aware and feel their one taste.

I was in one village that was actually very beautiful before it was exposed to dust and hot clouds, I went around with a group from barracks to barracks from refugees to refugees providing health services.

When night falls how much I wish for the enjoyment of a cup of warm chocolate with you in the same cold society, all as I wait for certainty.

If they wait for certainty when this disaster ends and it is safe to return home comfortably and be able to organize their lives again.

But if I, waiting for certainty when I get the word 'sorry' from you, I will never get tired of begging you.

When we're together again, together again in our dream home rearranging our lives, how much I want to show you that I love you so much dear.

A cup of hot chocolate accompanied me, reminding me of you, and my memory would always accompany me.

- Rest assured, I miss you.

Retno wants to return all yearnings for the sake of longing and say how much she misses too, but only tears always precede her.

Every morning Ms. Harni always sees the scenery is not strange anymore, Retno's eyes are swollen after crying maybe all night can sleep or not sleep at all, or who must have finished crying until he fell asleep so his face looked pale, all the more worried about Miss Harni.

How to find a way all can return to how complicated their problems are, but no matter how complicated there must be a way out even if it must be painful or hurt, someone in between.

The chief sister Harni came in and sat directly at the end of Retno's bed, staring at Retno who was again tidying up the books and all at her study table.

Retno knew that Ms. Harni had entered her room, unable to hide her puffy eyes and wrinkled face.

"Retno, sit down and talk."

Retno sat down and stopped her activities.

"Are you not interested in working anymore to eliminate burnout, so as not to get too immersed in your problems?"

Retno shook her head, stating no! in his mind so chaotic, not burdened with responsibility also his days so unable to focus on any one, let alone the burden of work will all be neglected.

"I've decided not to work first, ma'am, want to focus on this one-two-month thesis."

"Yes, I'm just offering to be afraid that you want to get busy first."

"I don't want anything right now, ma'am, I just want to finish one of my burdens, most of all the thesis is to go home to calm down to my village."

"Retno, do you want to bring the matter of your household to your parents what is it that you have thought mature good bad? in my opinion, it was wrong Retno,

parents should not be burdened with our problems, solve the problems with your husband first do not think far."

"I think so wrong?"

"The love of your parents should be the happiness they receive and hear the good news of their children. All parents do not want to see their children in trouble, if they can, want them to solve all their problems and also their children's problems."

"So, how should I be?"

"Now just focus on your thesis, then we will think again about your household solution while walking, then, I promise I will help you as much as I can and if you want to share just want to tell a story or convey what views you should, I'm ready with open arms, ready even if only with opinions and advice that you can consider."

"Yes, thank you."

"Yes Ma'am, from now on I will focus on finishing my final lecture which is the thesis, hopefully it can be finished and finished in time."

"Yes, Mother went to work first, do not be too much daydreaming busy yourself with positive activities so that there are benefits from day to day. Don't waste your time just daydreaming and feeling sorry for yourself and blaming anyone too much, remember that!"

"Yes ma'am, thank you very much, can I pick him up?"

"Emght." Harni's mother agreed after thinking for a moment.

Retno smiled happily, Mother Harni also smiled so happy to see Retno's cleft lip that recently disappeared somewhere.

Usually Miss Harni is not

ever wanted to trouble anyone to go to work with her husband and go home he took an angkot. Rarely did he ask to be picked up or escorted Retno even though one time line Retno still works at the hospital, but this time only to divert attention, to invite Retno can get out of her problems, to make Retno smile, Ibu Harni will accept Retno's offer to be picked up when she comes home from work later.

"You eat, everyone is ready at the dinner table don't make redundant."

"Yes ma'am, I'll eat." Retno replied expressionlessly.

Bu Harni left for work, the house became quiet Retno herself lived in her room began to open a reference book and turn on her laptop.

At the end of this Retno so lost his appetite there is no food that attracts his heart. Somehow his taste is so decreased even though he was in trouble before for the matter of eating he can still force himself, he said, but this time somehow always nauseous after waking up maybe because of lack of sleep, a lot of daydreaming and difficulty sleeping at night or too much thought was admitted.

Starting his activities by occasionally seeing e-mail feels strange to Retno, feeling hate to not want to forgive, but the fact is he so wanted even though just an e-mail that came to preach it.

Can not be denied the hatred of everything that has been done regardless of wrong or not, but the longing for the figure of a Dr. Prabu her husband is not easily removed, just like that, her little heart felt so lost from the days she passed, and it felt even more painful as night came.

All the sweet memories of his first night like a frame containing sketch paintings that danced on his head filled all the dimensions of his memory space, Really Retno can not eliminate all that.

As they go through the traditional procession, they look forward to a very long-awaited night of years of their love journey.

Patience did produce such sweet results, for them and made that very night later as a historical record in each life.

Retno read back the words of her husband's e-mail, feeling that everything reminded her how far she was now with her husband.
