Not as Beautiful as Angan

Two men who languish

For three days Cempaka locked himself in his room. He hasn't eaten since that day.

He did not go to school anymore to carry out his duties as an honorary teacher at the school.

The teachers asked the situation of Cempaka to Jati sir, his father.

"Neng Cempaka didn't come in sir...?"Ask one of the teachers.

"Emh... He's not feeling well, ma'am" What can you do, Mr. Jati answered him by lying. Because there's no way he's telling the truth.

"Ooh... Hopefully it will heal soon, sir" said the teacher's mother prayed for him.

"Amiin" Sahut pak Jati.

Since Cempaka locked himself in his room, the yard was always clean and fresh because it was always maintained.

Now it looks dirty dusty, dry leaves strewn everywhere.

Cempaka no longer cares about all that. His heart was too sick and disappointed with his mother's decision.

"Light, try to help mommy son! Please on his yard broom" Bu Sekar said one afternoon.

"Mother anyway, try if mom accepts his proposal to kak Samudera, surely brother Cempaka will not be confined to his room"Kilat blamed his mother.

"Yes, why do mothers and fathers do not like the brother of Samudera...?"Seruni joined nimbrung.

"Already!... It's already!... Don't argue with that anymore. Now try who can treat your brother...? Let me be happy again like before. It's been four days that she won't eat, I'm worried"sekar said.

"That can treat Kak Cempaka is just a brother Samudera ma'am, we go to his house only Mom!" Carnations said so.

But it is true said Carnival,

the only cure for Cempaka is the Ocean.

But, what can I do...? the forcing circumstances.

"Emh... Already, I want to try to persuade your sister again, I'm worried that she's sick. It had been four days that he did not want to eat" bu Sekar immediately rushed to his room Cempaka.

While Kilat and Carnation, headed to his yard to sweep the yard that had four days left Cempaka. Both of them will replace him.

"Tokay!... Toks!... Son!... Please open the door, son. Do not make your mother and father worry, son!.."bu Sekar asked that Cempaka open the door to his room.

Cempaka who was sitting contemplating in his room, flabbergasted to hear his mother's voice behind the door.

She did not answer her mother's call let alone open the door to her room. Only her tears represented her heart, she only cried sobbing.

The disappointed face of the Ocean with the answer from his mother, continued to be reflected in his eyelids. Making Cempaka can not dispel his sadness.

"Treid-job!... Exit boy!... Eat first, son!"bu Sekar repeated those words. He expected Cempaka to come out of his room and eat

as always.

"Cempaka doesn't want to come out yet, ma'am...?" pak Jati approached his wife who was trying to persuade Cempaka.

"Not yet sir, I'm very worried. Afraid he's sick sir... Hicks! I feel sorry sir, try yesterday the Ocean do not we refuse yes sir"bu Sekar cried because he felt sorry.

"Yes but, what about Seroja ma'am...? We don't want our relationship with his family to be broken...?"Said mr. Jati.

From his room Cempaka listened to all the words of his parents. With tears pouring down both of her cheeks.

The more the day the more painful the heart of Cempaka. The wound on his chest felt increasingly gaping.

"How sir!... This child of ours, I'm afraid he's sick" said Bu Sekar.

"What...? Just break down that door...?"said Mr. Jati while getting ready to break down the door of his room Cempaka.

"Don't sir!"bu Sekar prevented her, she did not want her husband to break down the door of her son's room.

That is how day by day Cempaka did not want to come out of his room. Once out, he does it when prayer time comes.

Because there was no food in his body. The more days his endurance is getting weaker. Until one day, Cempaka fainted at the door of his room.

Sa'at Cempaka just finished ablution want to perform tahajud prayer.

For two hours he was unconscious.

Sa'at clockwise pointed to the number four over twenty minutes, Flowers came out of his room. He's going to the bathroom.

So surprised he saw

"Treid-job!... Champak!... Why are you sleeping here...?"Flowers immediately crouched down near Cempaka's body. He rubbed his sister's forehead.

"Huh...?! It was so hot, he seemed unconscious. Ibuuu! Ibuuu! Ibuuu! Cempaka buuu!..." Flowers are hysterically screaming.

The cry of the Flower in the morning woke up the whole house. Everything came out of his room.

"What's the Flower...? Cempaka why...?"bu Sekar shouted as he ran towards the Flower who was screaming.

"Look out mom!"shouting Flowers.

"Let's lay it down first, try to get some wind oil ma'am!"pak Jati immediately carried Cempaka, then lay it on the mattress.

Cempaka's nose and forehead were smeared with wind oil, as well as his feet that felt cold.

"Dark! Why are you, son...? Don't make me worry about naaak!" said Bu Sekar while stomping his son's feet.

It was not only Cempaka who felt hopeless, heartbroken, and disappointed. But, there is one more heart that is not less disappointed.

No less his heartache, namely the Ocean.

After returning from the house of Cempaka, he became careless himself. His mind was upset, devastated. He didn't tell

disappointed, he tried to calm his own heart and mind. She was afraid her mother would be hurt too.

Ever since she felt disappointed and hurt, she was like Cempaka was silent in the room shutting herself up.

This made his mother wonder, he did not understand the behavior of his son.

"Sam! You have finished your education, when did you start?"asked her mother while looking at her son's gloomy face.

"Next week ma'am, I'm on holiday for a few days" she said slowly.

"Ooh! If I may know, what is the matter with you...? Looks like there's a problem again. What's up, Sam...?" bu Sekar was curious.

"Maybe it's because of the soy sauce ma'am, I need to rest, let my body recover" replied the Ocean.

"Then you eat a lot, and enough rest yes son yes" said his mother Samudera, he did not suspect anything to his son.

Meanwhile, Cempaka had awakened from his stupor.

"You have a fever, son! Because of you

it's been a few days not eating" Ms. Sekar reminded her son.

Just shut up, he's lazy.

"This is the food!"Flowers offer a plate of rice with a favorite side dish Cempaka.

"Come deck! You eat first so you don't get sick, don't leave your stomach empty!"bunga advised his sister.

"You don't hurt the deck! soon the Sakti family will come here. He said he wanted to set the date for our wedding. If you are married, who knows Buana keeps her promise to you" Bunga told you the good news.

"Is that true, Flower...?" bu Sekar seems unsure.

"True ma'am, tomorrow Saturday afternoon they want to come here"

say Flowers again while smiling happily.

"That means, two days from now...?" bu Sekar was surprised and happy, because it meant something

he became besananan with ma'am Seroja.

"Yes, let's eat first! Masa, your sister got married, you're sick. Eat yes, one bribe only"

bu Sekar seduced Cempaka to let her eat.

"Let me eat alone, ma'am! Now I want to go to the bathroom first. I haven't prayed dawn." Cempaka got off his bed.

"Astaghfirulahaladziii... Oia, I forgot because I panicked to see you were unconscious" she was surprised because she had not prayed at dawn.
