Arka: Some men like simple women. Which is not arbitrary. Because there is rarely a Imam who willingly precedes the movement of his prayer.
.....
Arka visited Sekar who was currently about to head downstairs. To buy lunch. Exactly, Arka found Sekar right in front of the elevator. The elevator door was open but fortunately Sekar had not yet entered it.
"Eat together yuk," without any hesitation, Arka grabbed Sekar's hand. Letting the fingers of the fingers of Sekar join with his fingers.
"Yesterday thank you for the welcome. Mas Arka's office is great," said Sekar amazed.
Angle of lips Arka raised. I don't know if yesterday wasn't my office birthday. Except a welcome for Sekar.
"Sama-sama," said Arka.
Elevator door opens. Bringing the two men down. Restaurants down to buy lunch. It just so happens that today Sekar does not bring lunch from home.
"It's hungry, huh?" Ask Arka.
She felt her stomach. Not rumbling. The girl shook her head, "Not yet. Why emang?" Ask Sekar with furrowed brows.
"Shalat dhuha yuk. Downstairs there's a place to pray."
First Sekar pecking. Over time the girl's lips curved to form a smile. Sekar put his hand on Arka's hand and exclaimed, "Come." Saying Enthusiastic.
They both performed the dhuha prayer downstairs. Arka remembered Jayur's words last night. And Sekar remembered the words of Anisa.
Both offer their own do'a. Ask, hope, and thank the Almighty.
Arka, the man asked God that God could open Sekar's heart so that Sekar could love him. Ask Allah that Sekar is not his brother. Asking God to facilitate all the affairs of the world and the Hereafter Arka. Moreover, asking Allah eases his struggle to have Sekar.
Now, the girl thanked God for all that she had given to Sekar. Praying for the best for himself and his whole family. And asked that Siska be calm in nature there.
Both are so special. Late in their respective do'a. Once it's taste enough. Arka turned her body. Faintly he could see the shadow of Sekar behind the barrier garden behind there. A smile rises on Arka's sweet lips.
Really, Arka felt herself gaining more composure at this moment.
"Have you? Let's eat, then" said the man.
They both ate at a nearby cafe. There are 30 minutes left for lunch before returning to work.
"the arka? What is my job, actually? I don't fully understand. When I came out of your room I just cleaned the next room," said Sekar while choosing his lunch menu. At a glance, a peek at the contents of his bag then compare the amount of money with the price of food. Damnit damnit! The food is expensive.
Sekar. Confused what to eat. Find a cheap one, not yet.
"Your job? Actually not much. Just help me out. Bringing the files to my room. Accompanying me. Helping me to me-" Arka's speech was cut off when she saw Sekar looking down and dumbly. Arka looked at his head. See what Sekar sees down there.
Arka smiled smirk. Now this is indeed nothing to change at all. Arka could read Sekar's face which seemed to be worried.
"Order whatever you want. Let me pay."
Hurry up and close the bag. He smiled broadly, "T-no. I have money. Ta-tadi a-anu you know," Sekar scratched his nape that did not itch.
"Order whatever you want. Think of it as a celebration of your newfound title of being an assistant," Arka tried to provide some understanding.
"no need. I'm not hungry" closed the menu. Then hand it over to Arka.
"You didn't eat, nor did you eat. Though I was so hungry," Arka grimaced as she pushed back the menu book. Faced with Sekar.
Just glaring, "Lho? If you are hungry, eat" said Sekar.
"You just don't eat. How can I eat?"
Alright. Here we go with Ark. I will lose after this.
"Jas. Just think of the menu with you," right. Arka ordered two servings of food and drinks to the waiter. Then the servant bowed his body and got out of there.
"There's actually something I want to talk about" Arka said. Back to putting on a serious face.
"Could only. What's?" Ask Sekar.
"Later tonight I want to take you to the hospital."
"Hospital? Who is sick? Mamah Tami's? Arman's Papah? Or who?" Hearing the word of the hospital made Sekar shocked to death.
"Not one of them. But just as important as them. Even more important," said Arka.
Just getting curious, "Yes. But who?" Ask the girl.
"Later you'll know for yourself. What matters is tonight get ready. I'll come get you. And don't forget to ask permission from Ms. Anisa. If you have an appointment with Arnold, cancel it."
Just understand. The girl nodded. Even though in the bottom of his heart he was very curious who was currently in the hospital.
"Said Arnold, Viona's your assistant too. Do you have two assistants?" Ask Sekar with a bead full of twinkle and implied fear. Afraid if Arka said there can only be one assistant and Sekar will be removed.
"There can only be one assistant" said Arka flat.
Sighed deeply, "Then pec-"
"And that's you," Arka brought her face closer to Sekar's face, "I'll fire Viona after this."
Not smiling. Just getting angry. His face suddenly turned crisp, "I should have been fired. That Viona has been your assistant for a long time. He's been better. He knows your schedule. He's smarter than me. In-"
"Who said Viona was good at doing her job as my assistant? You know anything? Let me tell you. Viona it's been a seduction for me. I need a consistent assistant. Not what is usually just seducing. And.. if she's with you, I think I'll seduce you" Arka raised her eyebrows.
Just sizzling slowly. Basic, boss of the mug.
"I also have something to talk to you about, Arka." I stared into Arka's eyes. Ants of seriousness were on the girl's face. Makes Arka squint her eyebrows.
"What?" Ask Arka.
"That day... Mamah Tami told me something. If..," Sekar paused his words. He looked at Arka, "If I were your sister."
The laughter broke out instantly. Makes the Sekar-Kening Sekar constrict very deeply.
"My sister? Now it's Arka's soul mate" said Arka with so confidence.
"Can't believe? Tonight we prove it."
****
Arnold was still inexhaustible with Viona's behavior. Viona likens Arnold like a demon who wants to get Sekar by forced means.
Arnold is obsessed with Sekar. But want to get Sekar in a subtle way. Arnold is not a sinner. It is free to be with him if he is not happy.
Arnold glanced at the phone located on the dashboard.
He tried to contact Sekar. But nil, never once Sekar picked up his phone. Should Arnold play a rough way so as not to Arka first?
****
Arka's at the orphanage. To pick up Sekar. The girl looks ordinary. Wearing sky-blue levis pants and short-sleeved shirts clad in red knit cardigans. Unostentatious. But again, fascinating.
"Who is sick?" Ask Sekar.
"It's our goal to go to the hospital. So you must know who's sick. Just wait," said Arka.
Tami, Jayur and Arman are in the hospital.
They immediately cheered the crowd when they saw the arrival of Sekar. Especially Tami. The old woman immediately collapsed hugging Sekar. Missing hard he said.
"Your mother really misses you. Sorry about that day," Sekar returned Tami's embrace. He also did not want to remember that time.
Sekar turns to greet Jayur and Arman.
"Yes. How are you?" Ask Jayur gently.
"Kabar Sekar is good," Arka pulled Sekar's arm away from Jayur. Makes everyone chuckle slowly because of it.
"Look who was lying there," Arka pointed to the room where Lestari was lying weak and still unconscious. Seekar.
"Who is he?" Ask Sekar. He could not see Lestari clearly because Lestari's face was covered with some of her hair.
"Lestari" said Arka briefly. Sekar glared at his eyes. Silencing mouth. Without any more permission, Sekar went inside. Followed by Arka and the others.
"Mom!" Sekar. He hugged Lestari at that moment. Her crying broke instantly.
"Mamma! Sekar misses Mamah," Sekar hugs Lestari tightly. Her tears were unbearable. Like a river flowing. Refusing to stop. Sekar's chest was crowded with his voice that suddenly became heavy. His tongue is also thick.
Her dream? Really this? Lestari's still alive? Not at all think this is going to happen. Sekar did have time to think that Lestari no longer exists in this world because of his presence that is out of nowhere.
"Ma-Mamma? I-This is Sekar," said Sekar stammering. Slowly get up from his seat. Smell Lestari's forehead, cheeks, and chin repeatedly.
Jayur gulped in a rough gulp, "If I'm the one that Sekar kisses so," immediately got a tight toyoran on his head which was caused by Arka.
"May? I-this Right. Mom wake up. Mah?" Shaking Lestari's body. Wish her mom would wake up soon.
"Your!!" Sekar screeched as Lestari's hand moved. In her open eyes.
His face was so pale. Her lips are so dry. Lestari's body is very thin. Lestari opened her eyes. The object he saw first was Sekar.
"Se-sekar?" Lestari held Sekar's cheek using one of her hands. Lips vibrate. Her tears shed for a moment.
He nodded, "Yes Mah. Ja. It's Sekar." Freshly kissed Lestari's forehead.
"Se-sekar?" Lestari Repeated. "Mama's son?" He nodded, "Strong!" Lestari rose from her sleep. He hugged Sekar.
"Mama's Child. Just a Mama's Son."
Everyone saw the haru story. Diving and living without feeling a drop after a tear comes wading through sadness.
"Mama's Son? Hahaha Mamah's son huh?" Lestari let go of her embrace. He suddenly laughed as he ruffled his hair. He scrunched his forehead.
"The Blooming Son of Mamah? Da? Huh yeah?" Lestari nodded her head. Laughs. Then squeezed his head strong.
"Wire Ark. His madness relapsed," Jayur whispered to Arka.
"May? Mamah why? This is Sekar son of Mamah. Sister Sister Siska. Mom ba-"
"Follow me Sekar," Arka distanced Sekar from Lestari. If Lestari's madness had recurred. He could have hurt Sekar. Either by biting it, clawing it or carrying a sharp object to the body Sekar.
"But Arka. It's Mamah!" Sekar. His hand thrashed trying to reach Lestari's hand.
"Dark? Mamah's Son? Mamah's son?" Said Lestari while continuing to ruffle her hair and laugh.
"Let him be treated by a doctor first. Come out," Arka pushed Sekar's body. Trying to get the girl out.
"Mom!' Screaming as loud as possible. The doctor was there. I'm going to inject a sedative into Lestari.
"Sutt. Mamah was fine," Arka hugged Sekar. He slid the girl's head against her chest.
"the arka? Ma-Mamah," said Sekar.
"Yes dear. Mama we're fine," said Arka.
Tami couldn't stand to see all this anymore. Whatever the risk, he took several steps towards Arka and Sekar. To tell the truth.
"Sekar is not Arka's sister," said Tami suddenly. Make everyone look at him.
"Already Mah. We're trying to figure out the truth" Arman said, pulling Tami's arm back. Arman thinks that what Tami said just now is just to melt things down.
"Let Mamah explain everything, Pah!" Tami jerks Arman.
"Yes Mah. We understand Mamah wants to ease Sekar's cry. But we're trying to figure out the truth" Arka said.
"Sekar is not Arka's sister" explained Tami. His voice was trembling a little. Both hands clenched. Tami said with confidence.
"Mah!" Jerky Arman. Because Tami ngeyel and continue the action.
But Tami couldn't stand it. He wanted to break everything down immediately.
"Arka's sister is Viona."
Arka took her embrace from Sekar. He looked at Tami with a look of disbelief. Likewise Arman, Jayur including Sekar. After wiping his tears, Sekar looked at Tami inside.
"Mama mean?" Ask Arka.
"Your sister is Viona! Viona son of Mamah. Mom is Viona's real mother!" Obviously Tami.
"Mahs. Never mind. It's not good to make a joke at a time like this" Arman said as he continued to pull Tami's arm to stop her speech.
"Your friends are not kidding! Look at Mamah's eyes. Look at Mamah's expression!" Tami approached Sekar. Shaking around the girl's body, "Show did you see Mamah's expression? Does Mom look like she's joking?!" Sekar.
Tami who is usually humorous, funny, jolly is indeed being said seriously at this time.
Tami. Kowtowing at Arka's feet, "Excuse Mama. Forgive Mama for not being honest before. But please believe me, Viona's Mamah's son." Tami's cry broke out instantly. He cried while holding Arka's legs.
I just can't bear to see it. Sekar tried to lift Tami's body, "Mah. Don't bow down like that" said Sekar ethereal.
Tami looked at Arka with tears in her eyes. While Arka herself was speechless, "You can slap Mamah. Lying Madam crazy. But I swear to God, Viona is Mom's son." Tami's tears and facial features help explain everything.
"If it's true? Why didn't Mama say it from before?" Saltwater Arka decays. He looked at Tami, the mother who gave birth to him with a look of annoyance and indignation. Even the two hands of Arka had already clenched.
Arka's sick. Injured. He felt lied to by his own mother. During this time, Arka and the others desperately find out the identity of Sekar. It was unexpected that Tami knew everything. And worst of all, Tami says Viona is Arka's sister. A difficult reality even feels unacceptable. Luckily Arka had never touched Viona. Arka and Viona have a previous relationship.
"Son, Mamah has her own reasons for not saying this. Pedestal-"
"Come on." Arka pulls Sekar's hand. Get the girl out of there. Tami is about to chase after him, but Arman blocks Tami's arm.
"Say! Why can you suddenly say that Viona is your son!" Arman's Word.
****
Arka hit a tree in the front yard of the hospital.
"Argh! Dogs!" Not once. But repeatedly. His fingers started bleeding. Sometimes Arka rubbed her face riled. Arka also shouted, "Dog! Argha! the devil!" Umpatnya.
"Arka is yes," Sekar tried to stop the activities of Arka. Holding Arka's burly body and taking her to sit in the garden chair.
"How come? How could Mamah say that Viona is my sister? And why just now? Where have you been all this time?!" Ask Arka so rudely.
"Mama has a reason. There is a reality hidden behind something that cannot be revealed. We do not know the reality of what is Arka," explained Sekar.
"But Mamah knows that I have a relationship with Viona. What if only I-ak," Arka was unable to continue her words.
Hugging him, "That thing didn't happen. You've never had intercourse with Viona. Don't hurt yourself. I'm hurt watching you get hurt."
Sekar's soft speech was able to dampen Arka's emotions. The lion that was being chivalrous was suddenly smooth. Arka returned Sekar's embrace. Arka felt that Sekar's body was shaking quite violently. Perhaps surprised to see Arka's anger just now, "Sorry." Mumbles Arka.
"It's okay. I know it's hard for you to accept this fact. So did I. But importantly, now we know that I'm not your sister. Even if your sister is Viona," there is happiness behind the words Sekar uttered. May say? Very happy, very happy. Finally he knew that he was not Arka's sister. That means they can have a lover relationship.
"I'm glad you're not my sister," Arka's sadness and cry were brief. He re-published a smile. The fact that Sekar is not his sister is very pleasant.
"Me too" Sekar stuck his head on the chest of the Ark field.
"Yes already? Let's go back inside. Ask Mamah Tami what really happened," Pinta Sekar who was then replied to a nod by Arka.
