Mentari for Dawn

CHAPTER 17 - In the End, I Lost You

Dawn meets Rahul. The person who until now still can not guess what his attitude towards him will be like. Fajar tried to explain, if the intention of his arrival to the house was due to the request of his own father who contacted him last night.

At first he thought that Rahul would greet him with anger and rage like the other day. Or maybe he will beat him up too, because he has dared to come to his house where his wife is also there.

But finally he could feel relieved, because the reality that happened did not match his estimates. Rahul welcomes her warmly and with friendship. The great anger he had shown a month ago was now no longer apparent.

The man took her to the rooftop so they could talk quietly and casually, without anyone interrupting or listening to their secret talk. Rahul also empathizes when Dawn tells the story of his life who was left dead by his wife and prospective children, in an accident one year ago.

Feelings of pity and guilt were evident from the look on his face. Rahul sincerely apologizes for making him feel sorrow and distress again, because he has taken Zahra from him.

Although the man firmly said, that he would never be able to hand his wife over to any man including himself. Dawn deeply understood the man's feelings. Because to be honest, if he were in that position, he would never be willing to give his wife to any man.

Even if it is his friend or brother. Moreover, Rahul has gone through difficult times when he was separated from his wife, who was lost in a flash flood tragedy that caused the woman to experience amnesia to forget her own husband.

Dawn is relieved that Rahul did not press her about his feelings of love for Zahra. The man understands that feelings cannot be prevented or removed easily.

Dawn is also happy because the friendship that has been established between them since they were children, has now returned to the same as before, despite the disputes due to the same women's problems.

He promised never to ruin their friendship just for the sake of something futile. He will try to temper his feelings for Zahra. Although for now his heart still could not do it. Let time slow things down slowly.

After gathering with Rahul and the rest of his family in the family room, to discuss Zahra's seven-monthly plan that they will hold in the house, Fajar finally meets the person he really wants to avoid. But very much he missed.

Feelings of love, longing, sadness, disappointment and anxiety mixed into one when he saw Zahra in a state that seemed to be in poor health. After a month of not meeting the woman looks fatter, with her distended stomach that is more prominent than before.

His body looked weak and his face looked pale. He held his head which seemed to be in pain. Maybe the woman's headache recurred like it used to when she was still living with him.

Heart thrashed. It felt like he ran over to Zahra, and made his body as a buffer of the fragile body. Hugged it tightly. Expressing his deep longing. He said he was very happy to see her again.

The long-awaited event has finally arrived. The faces of the sumringahs were on the faces of the Aerospace family members as well as the invited guests, all of whom expected health and safety for Zahra and her future baby until delivery.

In contrast to him who attended the seven-monthly event with a feeling of emptiness. Though the hopes and prayers she offered for Zahra and her baby were the same as the others. Everyone present at the event saw him as Zahra's husband, whom they knew was named Shreya.

If only what they thought and knew was the truth. At the moment he is the happiest man in the world. But unfortunately, all those thoughts only existed in his imagination that he did not dare to imagine would become reality.

A series of events took place smoothly and solemnly. But the atmosphere turns thick and tense when entering the flush procession.

In the midst of the apprehension of Dawn, he had to face the gazes of confusion, astonishment and suspicion of all, because he never did his duty as a husband who had to give the first flush to Zahra, everyone was even surprised and surprised by the hot video of Rahul and Zahra suddenly playing on an LED screen.

I don't know who is the irresponsible person who has made the atmosphere become excited and rowdy. Various questions, accusations to skewed accusations were leveled at the three of them, especially at Zahra to make the woman more stressed.

Makes Rahul angry to hear the scathing blasphemy being hurled for his beloved wife. So angry Rahul to keceplosan. The atmosphere became increasingly gripping when Zahra had to be rushed to the hospital in a critical condition.

Doctors said it could only save one of the mother and child. Makes Rahul so frustrated and crazy. The man roared and blamed everyone. Make Fajar feel a deep sense of guilt. Because he was the mastermind who created the game.

If from the beginning he did not pretentious to be a hero, maybe the situation would not be as silent as that. But now he can what? Rice has become porridge. Now all he can do is encourage and support Rahul and his family. And the best prayer for Zahra and her baby.

After praying and waiting with a feeling of frustration, the miracle finally came. Zahra and her baby were rescued. The faces were sad and filled with grief, finally changed with faces full of happiness and joy, in welcoming the presence of the tiny baby successor Dirgantara group.

The feeling of Dawn was mixed. Between being happy and moved by the miracle that happened to two people he loved. As well as the sadness and disappointment due to the presence of a baby boy named Chand, along with the return of Zahra's memory.

Dawn was also happy for the happiness that befell the couple, who could eventually regroup. Welcoming the presence of their first love gem with a laugh. Although her heart felt pain and disintegration because in the end, her story with Zahra had to end after the woman's memory returned.

But Fajar also prayed sincerely, so that happiness always accompanied the small family. Because he felt that he was not needed and his task here was finished, that night Dawn returned to Magelang, without saying goodbye to the happy family.
