Not the First Love

67

Two months after Boy proposed to Sinta in France and they had already formalized the engagement one week after returning home from France, and another week was their wedding day.

Their wedding will be held at Sinta's residence with a festive party, although Sinta has refused to make a big party but he lost the talk, no one agrees with him including Boy and his family.

Sinta has been given leave by Boy 2 a week ago so that he can focus on taking care of their wedding, while Boy he will just come home tomorrow.

Boy also gave permission to Tria to be able to accompany Sinta and that's what makes Arif upset.

Boy orders Arif to stop the company when he comes home tomorrow, while he himself will go home the day before Boy's wedding and of course it is Boy's own request.

Currently Boy is talking with Sahara, yes Sahara was healed a month ago because of Sinta.

the flashback

Somehow Sinta was eager to see the state of the Sahara because she had not seen it for a long time, the last she saw it one year ago when their office friends came to visit the Sahara. He was sad to see the state of the Sahara but he could not do anything either.

Finally he decided to contact Boy, yes he did not feel awkward anymore when he wanted to contact Boy first.

"Assalamualaik." Sapa Sinta when the connection is connected.

"Goddessalam.." Reply Boy soft because it feels good Sinta called him first will rarely think especially on a weekend like this.

"Where's brother?" Tanya Sinta is stale.

"Home at home, why? yes kangen?" Goda Boy, indeed since they got engaged Boy often tease Sinta.

"Ohh.. Can you please look at Ms Sahara?" Ask directly regardless of Boy's temptation.

"Sure, wait there let me pick you up." Boy said enthusiastically while standing up to take the car keys on the nightstand, because he thought when else Sinta would come to his house.

"Eh, you don't have to let me go there myself." Decline Sinta.

"No! I'll pick you up just wait there I'm on the road." Boy said firmly, where might he let Sinta come alone. Also heard by Sinta the sound of the car door being closed which indicates that Boy is already heading there.

"Well be careful on the road, just turn off the connection Brother is driving, danger." Reply Sinta resigned as well as giving a reprimand.

"Yes, then I turn off the phone first, Assalamualaikum." Say Boy.

"Getishalight." Sinta replied and the connection was cut off.

After waiting 15 minutes finally Boy arrived at the boarding house Sinta, Sinta has been waiting for him since 5 minutes ago on his boarding terrace. He was always alone in the boarding house during the weekend because all the residents of the boarding house will go on vacation. Likewise with Tria, since being with Arif they always go on the streets during the weekend.

"Assalamualaik." Sapa Boy smiled

"Waalaikumsalam Kak." reply Sinta also smiled but was invisible because it was covered by his veil.

"We're leaving right away?" Ask Boy later. Sinta nodded, "Come." Bring again. Sinta nodded and followed Boy from behind. Boy opens the door for Sinta, after Sinta enters, Boy runs a small half-turn and comes in.

After 15 minutes they finally arrived at the Wibowo residence. Boy wants to open the door for Sinta but Sinta has already opened it.

They enter the Sahara room with Boy in front and Sinta following her from behind. After arriving at the Sahara room, he was seen sitting leaning on the side of the bed while staring blankly at the front.

Boy invites Sinta in, Sinta complies and sits on the edge of the Sahara bed holding his right hand, while Boy goes to his room unwilling to disturb.

Sinta was sad to see Sahara who had been 3 years more never healed until she shed her tears without a sound, she continued to hold Sahara's right hand while looking down.

Suddenly felt by her a hand rubbing her cheek gently and wiping away her tears, she immediately looked up and how surprised she was when that hand was the hand of the Sahara on the left.

He saw Sahara who was looking at him with a smile and his left hand continued to stroke Sinta's cheek wrapped in a veil, while his right hand was still held by Sinta.

"Mom." Call Sinta while rubbing her right hand. But Sahara did not answer she continued to stroke Sinta's cheek with a smile.

"My daughter." He said softly while shedding tears and now his hand had fallen from Sinta's cheek. Sinta again raised Sahara's hand and stroked it on her cheek.

"Mom.this is Sinta, I can think of Sinta as Mother's daughter." Said Sinta while continuing to stroke her cheek elus with Sahara hands. Sahara didn't answer she was crying, her tears were flowing. Indeed, all this time he had never spoken let alone cried, but somehow at this time he suddenly cried.

"Mom misses Mother's daughter?" Ask Sinta again did not want to give up until Sahara really wanted to make her voice, even she cried without a sound. Then the next second the Sahara nodded.

"Mom wants to see Mom's daughter and Mom's husband?" Sinta asked again feeling enthusiastic because Sahara would respond even if only by moving her head, "Alright we will meet them." Continue again while retrieving the phone from the sling bag he brought. But stopped when he heard the sound.

"What's really?" Ask Sahara, YES! finally Sahara wants to open her voice. Sinta who had wanted to call Boy now turned to look at Sahara who was also looking at him sayu.

There was a sense of disbelief in his heart if the one who spoke was Sahara but who else in the room was talking while they were alone.

"Yes.. You want to meet them?" Ask Sinta again fishing. Then Sahara nodded enthusiastically while smiling.

Sinta again took her phone and immediately contacted Boy.

"Hello Assalamualaikum." Sinta.

"Waalaikumsalam Sinta is there a problem? I'll be there soon --" Boy said.

"No, sister, can I just take Mom for a minute?" Sinta asked hesitantly, "It looks like I need air outside the house." And then again give a reason.

"Well wait there I'll go down." Say Boy and immediately turn off the connection unilaterally without listening to Sinta's reply.

"Getishalight." Answer Sinta.

"Where are you going?" Ask Boy to the point.

"Somewhere that's gonna calm down Ms. Sahara." Answer Sinta.

"Where?" Ask Boy again.

"Will you take us?" He asked without paying attention to Boy's question.

"All right." Boy replied at last, because there is no way he would have let the two women be without him.

Then Boy took a wheelchair and Sinta helped Sahara sit in that wheelchair.

Arriving in front of the car, Boy carried Sahara into the car in the passenger seat followed by Sinta who sat next to him. Boy folded the wheelchair and put it in the trunk of his car.

Boy got into the car and immediately drove his car. When it came out the residential alley Boy was confused which way to go because he did not know the purpose.

"To the public cemetery where the late Mr. Wibowo and his daughter are buried Brother." Sinta who understood with confusion Boy immediately spoke up before Boy would ask him.

Without saying much, Boy nodded and drove his car towards the public funeral.

Arriving there, Boy helps Sahara in a wheelchair, after which Sinta pushes the wheelchair but before that Sinta asks that Boy wait in the car.

"Sister don't have to come, just wait in the car, I'll go with Mom for a while." Sinta.

"It's okay?" Ask Boy. Sinta nodded, "Alright if something happens call me directly." Further again. Sinta just nodded and pushed back the Sahara wheelchair.

Arriving at the tomb of Almarhum Wibowo and his daughter, Sinta crouched beside the Sahara while holding the Sahara's left hand.

"Mom.this is the tomb of Mother Husband and next to it is the tomb of Mother's daughter." Sinta said, "Mom don't want to say hello to them? didn't you just say that you miss them? now we've met them." Furthermore, Sahara saw Sinta and seconds later saw the two tombs in turn.

Suddenly her tears came back without a sound.

"They must have missed me too, Mom, I've got here what before we go I don't want to say hello to them?" Sinta continues to lure the Sahara to open her voice.

Then suddenly Sahara cried sobbing and the body that shook her tears flowed profusely. Sinta tried rubbing her shoulders trying to give her some calm.

"Papa.. Rani's.. Mama misses you guys.." He suddenly said while crying as he pleased. Sinta who heard it also shed her tears and continued to stroke the Sahara's shoulder.

"Why are you so evil.you left Mama alone in this world, you don't love Mama.." He said, crying, "Papa.. Papa remembers, Papa once promised to keep looking after Mama but Papa evil Papa has broken his promise to Mama.." He continued to speak as he pleased with his tears that continued to flow.

"Rani dear Mama why do you also follow leave Mama did Mama ever scold you Son? Mama's sorry that Mama can't be a good mother to you." Further again.

"Papa...! Rani...! don't stay in Mama, Mama can't be without you guys..!" His shout was loud as if he wanted to release all the burdens in his heart and his mind that had been impregnated in his brain.

Sinta tried to calm her down by continuing to stroke the Sahara's shoulder.

Boy who heard the sound of screaming was surprised and immediately ran after Sinta and Sahara because he was afraid of something happening.

Arriving at the tomb of Wibowo and his daughter, Boy sees Sahara who is crying hysterically and Sinta who hugs her shoulders trying to calm her.

Boy is shocked to see him then comes to the side of Sahara and holds his left shoulder.

"Mom." Calling Boy softly, Sahara looked towards Boy and came back crying hysterically.

"Boy. They're evil Boy. they've left Mom.. You're wrong about them.." His voice was a little screamed on the sidelines of his cry.

Boy was very surprised, not because of Sahara's speech but because he heard Sahara want to open her voice after all this time.

Seconds later Boy crouched down beside Sahara, Sinta who knew the situation immediately let go of his embrace and stood a little far behind Sahara and Boy to give space between Boy and Sahara.

"Mom.dengerin Boy. This is all God's destiny.. Do you know why God took them from you?" boy asked, Sahara shook her head. Boy smiled and replied, "That's because God loves them more than Mother loves them, so God wants to test where Mother's love is to them.." Soft words. Sahara kept looking at him and listening to everything Boy said.

"... And God sees a Mother like this God must be very disappointed because Mother loves them but Mother does not love the one who created them as well as the regulator of the life and death of all humans." Further again.

"So.. Do you want to send them for the love of your mother to them? they must have been so sad to see Mom cry like this." Say Boy again.

"Then what should I do?" Ask her in the middle of her cry.

"Mom just need to give them because all they need is prayer and blessing which they hope, so they will definitely be calm up there." Boy replied with a smile feeling happy because finally Sahara wanted to open her voice.

"Boy..." Call him then the two spread out their arms to hug Boy. Boy smiled and entered the Sahara. A second later Sahara let go of her embrace and turned to look at Sinta.

"Love. Come here, son." Call him out while extending his right hand. Sinta came and squatted beside the Sahara. Then Sahara hugged the two of them with her in the middle.

Boy and Sinta Very happy finally after all this time Sahara can recover and return to normal as usual.

Sahara raised Boy as her son and Boy happily wanted to, but before that she had also asked permission from her parents and her parents also allowed it.
