Prologue Pilu..
We are nothing more than a story that no one knows.
Started with a laugh offering a stopover
Joking and trying to be home.
Slowly the land climbed the gap to dispel all fret
We are the absence of need for each other.
Gather feelings to no longer be ignored.
Again offer the heart of all regrets.
Strengthening the hope of all the wishful thinking that has ever been isolated.
We are the universe's chance at a taste.
The agreement to always exist even though the clutter is not always the same.
Many times manipulating wounds and being disappointed.
To present a symphony with a rhythmic song.
It was you who made me learn to be ME....

Dena spent the afternoon reading a novel while sitting on a small swing on her porch. Hasbi approached her sister who was engrossed by herself.
" May I sit with Kak Dena?", Hasbi came home early that day because the work in her office was a little quiet.
" Of course I can" Dena shifted her body giving Hasbi a place to sit next to her.
Dena closed the novel that she had only half read, for her talking to her younger brother was much more fun than continuing to read the novel.
" How is it today at Kak Hospital, smoothly?", Hasbi asked because he was still thinking about his brother who yesterday afternoon suddenly cried for no reason .
And Hasbi believes this has something to do with the man in the Hemodialysis Room .
" It's normal, everything's fine.. You don't have to worry" said Dena.
" Thank God then" , Hasbi still felt dissatisfied with her sister's answer.
It seems like he had to collect on Kak Dena's promise yesterday afternoon that said he would tell her what kind of problem he was facing until he cried stupidly like yesterday.
" Sister Dena, yesterday you promised me.", yet Hasbi continued his sentence, Dena had cut off his sister's words "Yes, of course I remember"
" It just so happens that today I'm happy, I'll tell you"
Hasbi is confused by this older sister, yesterday he did not even want to talk about what because of the sadness that can be said is quite deep for him. But today he can say he is happy. The change in attitude of his older brother made him even more interested in knowing it .
Dena excitedly told from the beginning how his meeting with Mas Adam at the Airport, then reunited in the Hemodialysis Room. And finally Dena confessed her growing feelings, telling her how much she wanted the man.
" But I never dared to express it, and I don't think he was ever sensitive to my feelings" said Dena, a little disappointed.
"Sister, don't force someone to be sensitive because not everyone can be sensitive"
" So it's better to just express what you want to her", Hasbi can say the word because Dena hasn't finished forwarding her story .
" Do you think there's a guy who wants to be with your imperfect brother?", Dena tries to look at his younger brother's side as a boy.
" Dena must believe that the one who loves sincerely is not the one who gives what you want.
" But he who persists after knowing what your shortcomings are"
Dena just lowered her head to hear Hasbi's answer, she felt ashamed to be honest about Mas Adam who turned out to have a wife.
" What made Kak Dena cry yesterday and what made Kak Dena happy today?", asked Hasbi.
Dena was still thinking for a moment, deciding whether she should be honest about Mas Adam's status.
" Ahh, it's not like I promised my sister this to be honest with her"
" Come on Dena, don't be a disbelieving human being" whispered Dena inwardly .
" Where do you want to hear first, because I'm crying or because I'm happy?", asked Dena to offer her sister a choice.
Hasbi plays her eyeballs, pretending to think like she's a prize quiz participant.
" Hehehe, alright tell me first because that makes Kak Dena happy today", Hasbi rubbed her flushed ears red.
Sentence slid with passion Dena tells today Mas Adam invites her to a place that means to her. Dena recounts every detail of the feelings that were stirring in her heart despite the fact that the man confirmed he considered Dena like his own sister.
" But my happiness is simple, just because he cares and cares about me I feel enough to encourage myself" Dena showed how valuable the little good that man does.
Hasbi was relieved, it turned out that what he had suspected so far was not wrong . His sister was really true to that man. Hasbi seemed to be able to feel the happiness that emanated from her brother's eyes every time she mentioned that name .
" You still want to hear what caused me to cry yesterday?", Dena continued her question .
" Of course, wasn't it from the beginning that I did charge Kak Dena's promise for that"
Dena bit her lips, still hesitating to have to say this or not to Hasbi.
"If from the beginning I only admired him without putting more feelings on him maybe we could only exchange stories", Dena heartily chose the initial sentence to tell stories.
" But I really don't know, not realizing the wrong move I've taken"
" He turned out....."
Dena couldn't continue her sentence.
" What is it, brother?"
" Did she have a boyfriend" asked Hasbi impatiently.
Dena raised her head, drew a deep breath..
"More than just a lover" Dena said in a quivering tone.
" What does it mean, explain to me Brother", Hasbi is still groping what her brother means.
" He had a wife and a child" Dena broke up.
Hasbi fell silent, as if he could not believe what he had just heard.
He grabbed Kak Dena's hand, clasped her tightly, asking Kak Dena to turn her eyes to her .
" I beg you, stop your feelings, Brother Dena"
" It's not as simple as you think, he even has a child"
" Sister hasn't gone too far, I'm sure Kak Dena can still stop all this", Hasbi begged solemnly to her sister .
The afternoon sky was turning red, the sun that had slipped towards the West confirmed the twilight Lembayung had arrived. Dena was still glued to sit staring at the sky where she was shelter. Hasbi left her alone, asking her to think again.
" Did my sentence just show how good I am?", the question came to Dena's mind.
He insisted on justifying all his feelings .
" I've gone too deep with my feelings, and I can't just take them off"
" I don't think I'd want to be alive if I had to take it off, and I'd make Mas Adam fall in love with me" Dena recalls what he said to his sister.
" Don't let Mom and Dad down with your attitude, sister" the last sentence Hasbi said to Dena before she left her own sister sitting in a daze.
...****************...
Hasbi walked into the house with a feeling of annoyance.he did not expect as complicated as this first love experienced by his sister.
" It looks like I have to meet the man, talk to him in one eye"
" I don't want him to behave with all the attention he gives while Kak Dena is made comfortable by it and becomes misinterpreted".
" Huuhh.. My love story alone is complicated, it turns out there is something even more complicated", Hasbi grumbled in his heart.
Kak Dena seems to have to concern herself with work or any activities that make her can slowly forget the man. Hasbi racked his brain, flashed a few ideas in his head. Starting from recommending his sister to work in some company that he felt could accept his older brother, to the crazy idea to match his older brother with his co-workers who are still single. And the last idea he had was to make his brother not meet again with the man by moving Kak Dena's blood wash to another hospital in the city.
Looks like it's gonna be Hasbi's planning ahead of her, she doesn't want her brother on the stamp as Household Destroyer.
" Dena sister is a good woman, I want her to get her soul mate in a good way too".
Let him think again in a few days. If he still stick with his decision, then I will execute my plan earlier, Hasbi murmured .
