Love Begins in Wounds

Love Begins in Wounds
Derogate



Tonight Sifa fell asleep in Vino's arms, after eating and drinking warm tea made by the girl-in-law asking Vino to sit next to her. Sifa leaned against the chest of her husband's field, seeking comfort to vent a moment of grief. The two are sleeping to give each other warmth.


"Is it better?" vino asked as Sifa was sitting in front of the dresser while putting thin makeup on her face.


"Hhhm yes..."

Vino kissed Sifa's head, and she was grateful that Sifa had been much more rigid than yesterday. In his heart he was proud of his wife who was able to quickly make peace with the situation even though he knew this was not easy.


"What's today's plan, baby?"


"Just want to walk around this house, I haven't been here in a long time, you want to accompany me?"


Vino smiled at Sifa's question, of course he would accompany his wife wherever she wanted.


"What ends?" ledek Vino and immediately greeted with a sullen face from Sifa.


"Absumulation!"


"Maybe my wife would give me something like that, after a day of company or maybe love me......."


"What?"


"That makes fresh and restores stamina for example..."


"What?" sifa asked again, her eyes narrowed at the direction Vino looked at her lips.


"You must have asked for it." continued Sifa while covering her lips.


"I want ice coconut, drink in the pendopo over there while enjoying the rice field atmosphere, must refresh the body and cool the heart to revive stamina after a day yesterday drained out," sahut Vino cuts off Sifa's speech.


Sifa was flabbergasted at Vino's words, then with her mischievous smile Vino whispered something in Sifa's ear.


"You must have thought that was delicious.." whispered Vino made Sifa's face immediately reddened, sure Sifa his mind had gone everywhere.


"You're mengeselin ikh!" Sifa threw away her face then moved from there and busied herself by making the bed.


Seeing that, Vino was quite happy that Sifa had finally returned as usual, only to help heal the sadness in his heart that was still at home until he was able to return truly cheerful.


"Honey.." exclaimed mamah when he saw Sifa who was walking towards the dining table together with Vino.


"Well.." replied Sifa smiling.


"Here baby let's have breakfast with yuk, the waiters were busy from morning preparing food, he said his favorite nduk Sifa."


"Oh yes, mah, they are always like this every time Sifa returned to obey the orders of grandmother until made a habit," Sifa smiled faintly considering the time of the grandmother, who was a woman, then glanced at the empty chair that Arum's grandmother used to wear at breakfast together.


The understanding mama immediately approached and shifted the chair to immediately sit down to divert her thoughts.


"Sit baby, well.today mamah child looks very beautiful, his hair in braids like this fits the atmosphere in the village. You look ayu son!"


"Like a country girl huh mah?" vino Sahut.


"Awas Vin later if there is a village youth who is the same as your wife, where people here are alim-alim, well, no less handsome as city people, polite again!"


"Father nich what sich! I will continue beside Sifa, will not let Sifa walk alone. Am I less handsome? less polite? less good?" vino said annoyed to hear the praise of the papah which actually seemed to corner him.


Hearing that papah smiled happily, he managed to make Vino upset and know how unfortunately he was on Sifa.


"It used to be angry huh mah, now it's like a big bucin, besides you're a husband what bodyguard until Sifa everywhere can not be alone!" papah did not stop mocking Vino until Vino was lazy to listen to the babble again.


"Honey now you eat yes, do not be horrified papah word okay!" Sifa only smiled in response to Vino's words and was greeted with laughter from the other family.


After breakfast Sifa invited Vino to go around, Sifa walked with Vino who faithfully accompanied, occasionally her eyes wet every remembering the laughter created between her and her late grandmother. Step Sifa brought himself to the wooden door with typical batik carvings, the door with dark brown color with two parts looks thick will be typical of Java.


The girl's hand stretched open the door, her eyes were immediately greeted by a large picture frame containing four members whose three were gone.


Sifa smiled bitterly at the destiny of life she had to live. His steps stopped right in front of the frame, observing one by one the people he loved so he could not resist crying.


"This was when I was fifteen, the last time I was here with mom and dadah and the last time I saw them. Because after this we had an accident, which left both my parents dead. It was the first time I felt such a deep loss. I feel unfair to His power, why am I the only survivor...."


"Grandmother always wanted me to stay with her but I always refused, until now grandmother has gone home. I'm sorry enough why I didn't comply with her request." Sifa took a deep breath trying to reduce the tightness in her chest.


"But there is one thing that makes me understand, why grandma always worried about me all this time to match me with you, because there are times when I will feel lost again. He knew I would not be strong enough to face it myself, so unfortunately to really prepare everything. Give me a family back, without wanting me to keep feeling sad."


Vino clasped Sifa's hand firmly, his heart so bitterly hearing all Sifa's words. Until it is not strong when the sad eyes are back dripping liquid.


"I don't have anyone Vin, everyone has gone to leave me...." Vino tightly hugged Sifa's body which was shaking with a painful sobbing.


"Ssttt..sadly horrified me, there I who always accompany you, accompany each of your steps, become a sturdy pole when you need a grip, he said, be a strong wall when you need a backrest and be a light when your heart needs light to move forward. This is all that grandma prepared for you, so that you are strong in living it and not alone to feel sadness."


Vino stretched out his arms, saw the wet wry bead of eyes, trying to smile gave strength.


"Thank you, everything has gone according to His will. God calls us to love, love, and strengthen one another. He replaces the lost with the coming, gives sadness and then happiness, sometimes below sometimes above. Because life does not just have to laugh, it takes tears to be strong again, it needs injuries to be stronger and need to be stepped on to be more upright."

"Stay to be the Sifa I know, cheerful, strong, and full of surprises!" vino said with a smile that made Sifa's heart full.


"Thank you for standing with me and strengthening me, I will try to be sincere...."


"Dear, the spirit again yes to live it all." Vino gently rubbed Sifa's cheeks affectionately.


"Sit here yuk by pegel stand still!" Sifa invited Vino to sit in the grandmother's work chair, with Vino sitting in front of Sifa with a table obstructed.


Sifa's eyes accidentally saw a letter on top of a pile of books with a box on it. The curious Sifa immediately took the box and opened it, Sifa's eyes widened to see the contents of the box, her hands covered her slightly gaping mouth, she did not expect the grandmother would prepare all for her.


"Darling that........."
