Merely Protector

Chapter 6. The arrival of Anam

A week passed, but they still had not found a bright spot. The two men did not know where else to look for information. Asking the police about the person looking for family members is also non-existent. Now only a miracle is awaited so that Angga immediately remember everything.

The creaking of the cot sounds was heard as Angga's body moved. Slowly the man shifted his legs. Although his face seemed to withstand the pain, but was able to be defeated by the throat. He did not want to depend on that little family. Yes, even though he can't help working, but at least not a hassle.

The door of the room suddenly opened. Angga stopped his movements, then looked ahead. There was an anxious look on the sweet face of the woman who was now walking towards him.

"Why not call me?" ask Silvi.

"Don't help me! Let me try moving out on my own."

The pain in the legs of Angga has begun to decrease. He wanted to move into a wheelchair by himself. The man started moving his legs again.

Silvi instantly stopped and stood not far from the side of Angga. He let the man do what he wanted. However, there was still anxiety on his face. Hands hanging next to the body, some times showing reflexes want to help when the man looks difficult.

"Be careful!"

Angga was still trying to stand on his right foot, while the left one was slightly hanging. The body is slowly rotated so that it is now turned back to the wheelchair. Both hands begin to rest on the iron chair so that the body can slowly sit down.

Smile looks fluffy on Silvi's face. He felt happy because now Angga has increased. A week, either a long time or a short time for such progress.

Silvi immediately helped Angga towards the bathroom. The uneven floor made it difficult for the man to move from one room to another. Take turns to enter after the child is out.

Yes, all this time the middle-aged man who helped Angga take off or wear clothes. He could knock on the door when he finished his bath.

"No need, sir. Let me take off my own clothes."

Angga's words slightly surprised Budi. His forehead seemed to be frowning because he did not understand the words of the young man. However, Silvi's explanation made her understand, then walked out of the bathroom.

Angga was able to finish his bath in a few minutes. The man was happy because now he did not have to rely on the family of Mr. Budi. He asked for help when he got out of the bathroom.

"Sir, I will go to the forest, find firewood" said Ayu. Now they are gathered at the dinner table.

"Mother, don't look for wood! Let me find you" suggested Silvi. She doesn't want to be exhausted.

"But ...."

Not finished Ayu spoke, Silvi had interrupted. Not that he wanted to be disrespectful, but he already knew what his mother had in mind. So, the mother should not be tired of explaining again.

"I'll look around here, Mom. I know it's not much, but it's good enough to cook tomorrow. So, I can take care of it too." Silvi smiled so that the mother would calm down.

"I'm okay. You can stay with me." Angga tried to convince her that she was okay.

Now, the man felt capable of anything. Maybe his needs at this time only eat and drink, and all that is presented on the dining table. So, what's so hard about taking it yourself.

After finishing eating, Budi and Ayu immediately went to the rice fields to check the plants on which started yellowing. Meanwhile, Silvi was already preparing to look for wood. Several meters of rope and machetes were already in hand. However, previously he had provided everything Angga needed, such as empty glasses and plates on the table.

"If you need anything, yell."

Angga frowned, not understanding Silvi's words. Why did he shout that the so-called were in the forest. His voice was also unlikely to reach the place of the girl.

"I'm looking for firewood around the house. I'm still not sure if I'm going to kill you" Silvi explained. He knew that Angga was confused. "I'm leaving first."

Without waiting for the man's response, Silvi rushed out of the house through the back door. He walked a few meters towards the garden not far from there. Every few steps, the woman looked back, anxiety always lingering.

"Silvi, why do you think you keep going anyway? Yes, yes, justin. He's also a nobody. Just the status of a doang as a husband until he remembers."

Silvi tried to calm herself down. He doesn't want his feelings to change, he's the one he's waiting for. However, for some reason the more days, the more difficult it became for him. Sometimes the girl also thinks that she is the legal wife of Angga according to religion. So, there is a sense that sometimes appears suddenly when close to the man.

The large mango tree became where Silvi stopped his steps. He put a rope over the roots sticking out of the ground. However, suddenly there was the sound of approaching steps. The girl immediately turned her back to see who had come.

"Mas Anam! You're home yet?" ask Silvi.

The woman was shocked at Anam's arrival. The young man he had been waiting for had come before him. He was happy, but also astonished. This time the man's face was not as cheerful as usual.

"Yes, I went home a week ago."

Silvi was stunned by what Adam said. His lips were instantly dumb, his mind suddenly blank. Now, a flashback of what happened a week ago flashed through his mind.

Silvi lowered her head, feeling a little awkward. A disturbing feeling also suddenly appeared. Yes, a fact he wanted to hide was already known Anam. Now the woman is trying to string the words together to explain the real thing. He wanted the young man standing a few meters before him to understand.

"Well, are you nodding? You don't like me coming?" ask Anam. "Sorry."

"No. I'm just ...."

Before Silvi finished her speech, the sound of falling objects sounded from the direction of the house. He was silent for a moment.See once his face turned frantic.

"Sorry, I'll go home first." Silvi nodded her head as an apology.

The girl immediately turned around, then ran away from the young man. Now all that is in the mind is Angga. He felt very worried if something bad happened to the man.

Anam remained silent with clenched hands. Tightness in the chest feels squeezed. However, he was unable to do anything, just staring at Silvi who was getting further away.

Seriate.
