Love is Not Finished

CHAPTER 113: Switzerland

It's past Isya.

I watched the news on television while looking at Prita's condition once in a while. Bram and Atif are not here yet.

I started to fidget and feel fear in this ICU room. When the TV turned off, the room suddenly went quiet. Only the sound of the tools that are attached to Prita's body.

Sreeet...!

The door opened, it turned out to be Bram and Atif. They were carrying plastic bags filled with food.

"Zanu, I'm sorry you waited so long. I brought you some food for tonight. We eat together, yes" said Bram.

Bram and Atif put the plastic bag on the table. Atif went straight to Prita's place and sat near him. Bram came to me.

"How long was it? This is through Isya, where is it?" I asked a little manyun.

"So I went to Pakgub. I'm talking about the arrival of the doctor of Revelation from America. So, the doctor stayed at Pakgub's house. So that later Pakgub and doctors can discuss directly about the condition of Prita. For the safety of Pakgub and his family, we do not tell him that Prita is his nephew Pakgub to the doctor of Revelation," said Bram.

"Oo, how many days is this doctor?" my many.

"Maybe about a week. Waiting for me to finish the trial," Bram looked at me with a sad face.

I was shocked to hear Bram's statement. Why would he have to sacrifice completely just for Prita's safety? What was?

"Why wait for trial brother? Brother not going to graduation?" my many.

"Yes Zanu, I can't attend graduation. After the trial, my parents came and left with me. This was out of planning, at first my parents wanted to attend graduation. But because of Prita's condition like this, his departure to America must be accelerated. This is what I'm really trying to tell you," Bram looked more agitated.

"Huh?! Did I not hear wrong? Why does Prita Kakar's business go along? Prita can be accompanied by a doctor Revelation? There is also Atif. What is really going on, brother? Please don't mess with my feelings, brother, "I can't tolerate Bram anymore. Too often I ask this question, but there is always no answer and it just depends.

"Zanu, I'm sorry. I can't explain it. I also have a great responsibility, which I cannot deny. All the answers later when I was in America," Bram could not stand his feelings anymore, the anxiety turned into sadness.

"Alright Brother, if that's what Brother wants. This is the last time I ask, so it's up to Brother. What is certain is that now I understand very well, if that brother just wants to play with my feelings. I'm ready to retreat, if I feel like it's not there anymore" I don't feel my tears flowing. I'm sad to lose Bram and I can't do much to ask for Bram's explanation either.

Actually I feel more sorry to see Bram, because he must be more depressed with his own problems. But right, if he wants to tell me, at least half the problem I can understand or find a way out.

"Zanu, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way, I really love you. I can explain after the trial is over. I'm sure you're shocked and don't trust me anymore. So, ahead of the hearing, I want to be near you Zanu, always" Bram lowered his head.

"Yes, brother, now let's eat. I'm hungry" I'm changing the direction of the conversation. I want to fulfill Bram's wish to enjoy time with me until the trial is over.

Bram looked at me. He saw his face that was almost crying.

Is that as sad as he is? Will Bram and I never meet again?

Bram stood up and let out a long sigh, he extended his hand towards me. And I grabbed and held it.

Me, Bram and Atif have dinner together. We talked about the departure of Atif who participated with Bram. Part of the selected Bram Bodyguard will be sent to America. There they joined another Bram bodyguard, who was even more professional.

There's not much I ask Bram. Because I don't think it's part of my business but the world is male.

********

Time is getting late. After we finished eating, Bram and I took a sleeping position in each other's place. The position of Bram's bed was right near my bed. Atif sleeps on the hospital couch and shifts it near Prita. Atif does not want to be far from Prita.

"Why? Are you feeling disturbed? I'll shift it later, just relax. I'm okay with you. Tonight I wanted to chat with you at close range," Bram glanced at me and immediately fell in his bed.

I was still sitting on the bed with my legs folded.

"Well, we are not muhrim. What else would you like to talk about?" my many.

"What do you want to ask about? Just ask about me or about us" Bram smiled.

I was silent for a moment while thinking about what question I wanted to ask Bram.

"Sister sister what's her name?" my many.

"The name is Velicie Setrain Ox" Bram replied.

"Setrain Oxis? What does that name mean?" I feel foreign to hear that name except Ox. Because Ox is tucked in Bram's name, too.

"Se it survived. Train is a train. At that time my grandfather made a new vehicle that has a train. When I was pregnant Veli, he liked to ride the train. As for Ox, the big name of my father's family,"

"Wow! Cool too, Grandpa has rides. Surely satisfied to play there and of course free," I'm very enthusiastic to hear the story Bram.

"Not really. In fact, we rarely go to these rides even though they are free. I don't like crowds, I prefer to go to places that have a beautiful and cool view. What about you, Zanu?" ask Bram.

"Lho, is it the same? I also love beauty. It feels peaceful when we are in a beautiful and cool place. Like Switzerland, I really want to be able to travel there," I imagine. I know a little about that place. I don't know when I could set foot there. I feel like it's just wishful thinking.

"You like that place, huh? You wanna go there?" ask Bram seriously.

"Like it. But I don't think I'm gonna be able to get there, it's gonna be expensive,"

"I'm sure one day you can go there" said Bram.

"Lho's? How can? Why can you be sure?" I was surprised to hear Bram's statement.

"Yes can. With the intelligence you have, I'm sure you can even travel the world, believe me,"

"Aamiin," that's all I can say. Although actually my brain was thinking how to make it all happen.

"Or if you want, later if we mate, we honeymoon there. If I may, I'll take you around the world" Bram smiled meaningfully, but from behind that smile there was a deep sadness.

"Well! Did I hear wrong, brother?" my many.

"Yes not wrong. I'll tell you, if we're a match. If not, I still want you" Bram pulled my nostrils.

"Aw! Sick Brother," whine me.

I was surprised to hear Bram say, not about honeymoon but about his talk about a mate.

In the past, I told you about that soul mate, Bram always denied it. But I don't know why Bram's following me now?

Bizarrely.
