My girlfriend's my enemy
episode 3
Since the accident a year ago Sahila had to lose both her parents. The house that was once full of laughter is gone.
Sahila who always seemed cheerful, chatty, jaim now became quiet and preferred to undo himself in his room.
Every morning Sahila always sat on the swing of the front porch of her house, swinging her gaze toward the gate with hope. I hope both parents come back home.
Sahila always said that her parents would come back, although Sahila had witnessed the bodies of her parents were pendam in the grave but still Sahila did not want to break the belief that her parents were still alive and would return in her arms. As if what happened never happened.
The depressed Sahila made Aunt Eni very devastated but what was the power of Aunt Eni was only a maid, Aunty could not do more for Sahila. It is enough to just be able to watch over and take good care of Sahila.
"Non. Come on in the afternoon you know, later this white Non skin becomes black. Come on," cried Aunt Eni by pulling Sahila's hand. But Sahila held back the hand from Aunt Eni.
"Non come on?" he said when Aunt's hand was held back. Looking towards Sahila's face she cried breaking the atmosphere.
"Why aren't you crying?" aunty asked, looking intently at those two eyes. Squatting down in front of Sahila, Aunt Eni wiped away the tears that had soaked her cheeks.
"Don't cry Non later Auntie joined in crying," said Aunt Eni began to tear up.
"Why Aunty, why did all this have to happen to Sahila?" fret Sahila.
Seeing the sadness that Bibi could not bear to see, she immediately hugged Sahila and made her calm. But as Sahila grew sobbing, Bibi grew confused and worried.
"Auntie?" Sahila let go of her embrace and stared intently at Bibi with question marks, Sahila asked a few questions.
"Where's Mama Sahila?" Deg ...!
Aunty's heart seemed to stop and returned Sahila's sharp gaze by glaring at her eyes.
For a year Sahila never questioned the whereabouts of her Mama but this time Sahila questioned it all. I don't know what I told him, though, Aunt Eni could not say because of the fatal accident Mama Juwita's body was not found because the car driven by Papa Sahil entered the ravine and Mama Juwita was lost at the scene.
Until now, Mama Juwita was not found. Remembering a year ago Aunt Eni remembered it again.
**Previous**.
When the Ambulance came only the bodies of Papa Sahil and his driver were delivered and everyone also witnessed it including Sahila. But at that time Sahila did not say anything even she never questioned it, Sahila just hugged her Papa's Body without fear she kept crying.
Aunt Eni also wondered at that time why Sahila was not looking for her Mama and she was more concerned with the Body of her Papa. Auntie also did not dare to ask about it.
At that time Mr. Edo only informed that Mama Juwita's body had not been found and the search occurred for 3 months. But Mama Juwita's body was not found so the search was stopped and the police said Mama Juwita was dead and the team stated that Mama Juwita's body was most likely eaten by wild animals.

"Auntie says? why is Aunt keeping quiet?" sahila asked as she wiped away the tears that kept soaking her cheeks.
"Sounds good." Auntie Eni tried to calm down and started telling her what happened a year ago.
"Mama Non is missing, and her body is not found. The Sar Team said that Mama Non died from eating wild animals" said Bibi Eni while holding Sahila's hands.
Sahila was shocked and she let go of Aunt's hand. "No Aunty, Mama Juwita is alive. Maybe they're lying they're hiding Mama, let's get Auntie, come on" Sahila said in a slightly high tone. While pulling Aunty's hand and yelling at her driver to drive her away.
Seeing Sahila like that made Aunty afraid of Sahila mentally. He continued to look at Sahila as he pulled his hand violently. The driver came and was ready to take them both away.
Bibi also threw his hand when Sahila pulled him to get into the Range Rover Sport 3.0 HSE car.
It was very clear when Sahila entered the house, eyes full of water until it poured, now turned very red without tears in the eye was because of wrath.
But Auntie was tinkering with the phone number of the house.
Very upset Sahila turned off Aunt's call.
"Non Bibi please let Auntie nelfon," he said by dialing the number.
"Who did Aunt call so Aunt ignored my orders?" For the first time Sahila yelled at Auntie loudly.
"Auntie wants to call Mr. Edo to justify Mama Juwita's death."
"ENOUGH ..!" shouts Sahila did not accept, as she ran up the stairs and locked herself into her room.
Dok dok.
The sound of Sahila's room door after a few hours. "Just come out Mr. Edo has come," said Aunt Eni.
"Crazy? this is Om, baby please open the door, son," said Mr. Edo.
Hearing the voice of Mr. Edo finally Sahila wanted to open the door, by lowering her head Sahila stood right in front of Mr. Edo. Mr. Edo is a personal lawyer for the Sahil Dermawan family. Mr. Edo is also considered like his own brother by the late Sahil Dermawan because his parents were close friends with Mr. Sahil Dermawan's parents.
"What Om can enter" said Mr. Edo bowing his body while lifting Sahila's chin. Sahila saw him and just nodded her head by wiping away the tears that had soaked her cheeks.
After Mr. Edo entered and sat on the sofa by the window of Sahila's room, Mr. Edo heard birds chirping. "You see the bird is Sahila" said Mr. Edo, stretching out his arms, pointing to the chirping chick in his cage.
Sahila nodded her head.
"Well, isn't he alone?" ask Mr. Edo. Sahila nodded her head again.
"Do you know why the bird itself?" Sahila shook her head.
"Because the boy was waiting for his mother to find food for the chick" he said.
Sahila stared intently at Mr. Edo, What did Mr. Edo really try to say. In heart.
"The bird was in residence by his mother to find food, without fear of his son falling to that height the mother left him, because his mother knew out there his child's life would be more dangerous. But with full confidence of the Mother, his mother left with confidence that her son could keep himself from falling in his cage because the bird could not fly" said Mr. Edo.
Sahila increasingly did not understand what Mr. Edo said. What is the bird's relationship with him, why did Mr. Edo tell the story of the bird without comforting Sahila or explaining something to sahila.
"But why did Om tell you this" asked Sahila.
"Well like that little bird, does Sahila understand what Om means?" Sahila just scrunched her forehead.
"Sahila is not really alone, Sahila is still Om and also Aunt Eni who loves Sahila like her own son so Sahila should not give up or punish herself. All humanity has its own trials including Sahila. Sahila was given this trial because God believes Sahila can get through this all and God believes Sahila can rise and be stronger than before. Om believes God has planned something for Sahila, something more than Sahila got before. Something that could change Sahila's life is more beautiful and happier. Like a story in a fairy tale," said Mr. Edo by holding Sahila's hand hoping he understands and after this Sahila can be better and cheerful again as before.
After a long conversation Sahila slowly understood what Mr. Edo was trying to say. And Mr. Edo's presence to appease Sahila worked, now he's better. Because Sahila was asleep when Mr. Edo told her some fairy tales that opened her mind to her.
8 YEARS LATER.
