Steadied on the desolate floor, leaning against the fragile soul wall. Let alone to prop up, just accept the touch just seems like Santana is not able to. Her love was carried away with Mariam's departure from her life.
Santana moved and tried to brush off the shadow of Mariam's face that was always in her eyes. He wore a neat suit with jeans and a long shirt. Dress like a man who wants to meet his soul mate.
"Where are you going, Mom?" tanya Asih full of search. "Running a long-overdue mission!" Santana mirrored once again to make sure of her appearance. Asih was curious about the mission meant by Santana but, he did not dare to ask more details.
Asih pressed deeply into his desire to ask. With an astonished look Asih looked at Santana who looked handsome, not as tangled as usual. Wanting it to feel Asih has Santana completely but, the rumble in his soul again broke his hope.
"Don't look at me like that, Asih. I don't want the hassles of rejecting you if later you really want me" Santana chirped regardless of how it felt to be hugged. Asih snorted annoyedly at the words of Santana who always thought he had no feelings.
With a backpack, Santana bailed to go to Asih. "Correct, before I go, I want to ask you. Is Dicky really your son?" tanya Santana made Asih scrunch his forehead.
"What do you mean, Mom? Of course Dicky's my real son!" ketus Asih while turning his face away. "Then give him more attention so as not to always seek attention with his mischief" said Santana. "Where can, Mas, all Dicky needs is a Dad's attention "refutes Asih.
"Mariam does what you can't give Dicky when I'm not next to them" lontar Santana compares Asih to Mariam. Asih was about to curse at that time but, Santana cut him off. "Receive the truth, Asih, and remember that you are part of the cause of his suffering!" Santana asserted with great emphasis.
Asih swallowed back the words of the curse that he was originally about to utter. Santana's words were quite silent and made her mouth speechless. Tired of being an Asih who has no pride in front of Santana.
"I'll be gone maybe for a few days or so," Santana then walked out leaving Asih. Dicky looked at Santana and just kept quiet with a look of despair. "Dicky, I'll be gone for a while .. be a good boy and don't forget to eat, yeah!" Santana said goodbye while rubbing Dicky's head.
Although Dicky sucks and often makes him angry. However, Santana actually did not have the heart of his fate. For that little stunt he'll do to help Dicky.
Santana passed away from her house but, he took the time to buy 2 chocolate bars and some milk boxes for her to give to Shaka. Santana is worried that Shaka will wait for his arrival if he does not say goodbye. Smiling, Santana walks towards Denny's house carrying what he has bought.
Santana in front of Denny's house. He knocked on the door and said his greetings. Sound of speech from inside the house with footsteps getting closer to the door.
The door opened and Mariam opened it. Santana's heart pounded happily even though it had to resist the desire to embrace Mariam. "Mariam, I want ...," said Santana cut off by Mariam who immediately called Shaka.
"Geek!" shouted Mariam calling. It seems true that Mariam has been reluctant to talk to Santana and prefers to call her son directly. "Come here, son," Mariam commanded.
Shaka immediately ran over and approached Mariam. Shaka smiles when he sees Santana there. "Dad, do we want to go play again?" cetus Shaka is plain when he sees Santana's neat appearance and looks handsome.
Santana crouched down to welcome a hug from Shaka. "No, son, I'll be gone for a few days and I want to give this to Shaka" Santana said, showing Shaka a bag of chocolate and milk.
Shaka is silent regardless of what Santana brings. His eyes showed disappointment hearing Santana was leaving again. However, Santana soon realizes it and persuades Shaka.
"Don't worry, Dad won't be long" Santana explained. Shaka smiles and takes the gift Santana brought for him. "Alright, I have to go now Shaka, go back inside" said Santana who was greeted obediently by Shaka.
Santana only realized that a few seconds ago was the moment where she really lost Mariam. Not when he decided to let Mariam go. Not when Mariam decided to marry Denny, but Mariam's attitude just now made her feel like she had been abandoned by Mariam.
The carefree footsteps that accompanied Santana's departure along one path to achieve her mission. To get justice for what happened to him. Santana again collected the remnants of his spirit.
***
"Who's coming, honey?" denny asked Mariam who looked gloomy after opening the door for the guest. Mariam just kept quiet about Denny's question. Denny who actually already knew from Shaka, that what came was Santana also understood the attitude of his wife.
True, Mariam does not hate Santana but, the pain of the act must still be felt. Denny pulls Mariam's arm and leads her to sit with him. "Drink this warm lemon tea, I make it for you" Denny said.
"Thank you, Mom" said Mariam. "Say it's more subtle," pleaded Denny. " Alright, thank you dear" Mariam repeated. Denny smiles and puts his cheek out to get Mariam's kiss.
"More times say more subtly than that," Denny's tease made Mariam laugh. "All right, dear Dad," said Mariam again. It sounds so much more perfect" said Denny Sumringah.
Shaka ran up to them and offered him the chocolate he got from Santana. "Dad, Mother .. feel this chocolate is very good," continued Shaka who immediately feed the chocolate into the mouth of Mariam, and also Denny. Mariam who was reluctant to want to not have to swallow and feel the sweetness of the chocolate Santana gave in her mouth.
Unlike Denny who looks more relaxed and enjoy it. Mariam has always been awkward accepting what Santana gives now. Sometimes there is a concern for Denny who might cover up his jealousy in order to appreciate Shaka's feelings.
I don't feel like time is at the end of the day. The clouds began to show themselves. Will fate make Mariam's feelings remain beautiful in the presence and departure of Santana? like dusk which never complains of its momentary presence and must be replaced by the presence of darkness with a very long time.
