Now: Love you every minute, every second. Love you 'till i die (Love you every minute, every second. Loving you to death.)
Arka: I'm dead and I still love her.
.....
A week long couple named Arka and Sekar enjoy happiness together in one of the famous cities in Indonesia, Bandung. Now both of them want to return to the city of birth, Jakarta.
"Ka?" Arka turned her head while muttering, "Love you every minute every second."
Arka chuckles. One thing he was most pleased with: when he bluntly said that he loved Arka.
"Love you 'till i die."
"I used to never believe the same thing as happiness. It was impossible for me to understand something of that happiness," Sekar put his head on Arka's upper arm. Arka doesn't grunt. He let Sekar do whatever he wanted.
"But now believe, right?" Ask Arka. Smoothly brush the head of Sekar.
He nodded, "Believe. Can I ask you one thing?" Sekar looked up his head. Staring at Arka's face was fixed even though the man was focusing on driving and did not turn his face towards Sekar.
Sekar gulped his spit roughly. Close his eyes, "Don't stay with me if it's not death that separates." One wish Sekar. He didn't want to lose Arka. Now Sekar believes that happiness exists and is real. But he did not know whether the blessing was forever or temporarily.
"Cong you say that? Kayak who's going anywhere. That conversation should be about happy things." Sekar. I want to talk about something that makes them both happy. But his soul was struggling. He ordered Sekar to say that.
"The one thing I'm most afraid of at once I hate, is loss."
Krystal Sekar's eyes. I don't know why. After what he had been through with Arka all this time. Makes him so touched. Sekar has fallen into the lap of Arka. Has given his crown in that man. He kept half his life in Ark. Then don't know what it'll be like if Arka's gone.
"Sttts. What's wrong, hm? Doesn't feel good, huh? No papa. We'll be fine." Arka gulps hard salivanya. His hands and feet shook instantly. The feeling is not good. Looking at Sekar who suddenly said like that. Plus he was crying.
"Don't think anything weird. People live to keep their promises. And now I promise that I will take care of you. And I'll stay alive to make sure you're happy." The feeling of Sekar. Hearing the word that should be a new spirit for him actually sounded painful. He doesn't want to. Don't want to lose Arka. He has suffered a lot of loss. Please, not Arka.
"Ka? Promise is debt. Dead men cannot carry debt. I keep your promise until anytime. Arka, the only person I have that I believe can make me happy."
Something is blocking. Fidgeting Sekar's mind and holding Arka's heart. Previously Sekar was very jolly. It's okay, why. Suddenly he became so dramatic. As if something was going to happen.
"promises. Arka will not leave until Sekar is happy" Arka added.

"Welcome Mr. Arka and Mr.s Sekar," sounded the trumpet in the inflatable. Balloons flying in the air. House in ornamental using ribbons. People stand in line forming a line. There are Iyam, Waluyo, Arman, Tami, and also Anisa. Everything widens hands. Welcoming the arrival of Sekar and Arka.
"His son is Mamah" Tami hugged his favorite son-in-law. Missing 7 days not meeting. The others waited for their turn to be able to hug each other.
"Where's how? Bandung exclaimed no? Mamah had also not been there for a long time," Tami pulled the woman's hand. He sat her down in the middle room chair. Sekar's shoulder massage. Asking the girl to recount the incident she experienced in Bandung yesterday.
"Mah Sekar is still tired. Don't bother first," cried Arka dominating the room. Seeing Tami who immediately invaded Sekar with a thousand questions.
"Hush diem you! There playing with your Papah" cried Tami. I laughed when I heard him.
"Lho's? You're in Bandung a week kurusan? Not in the same feeding Arka?" Tami noticed every bend of Sekar's body.
"Not in the feeding. Most rounds are mah bu," said Waluyo. Which was later followed by Arka.
"Had to be watched dong! Marriage with Papah you were ever this clean. Nih see," Tami pulled Sekar's wrist. Show it to the people of the house.
"Bi Iyam please masakin Sekar something dong. What cake. Make us eat too. That's a lot of cooking," Tami said. Responded to a nod of spirit by Iyam.
"Where's Bandung? Cold right? Duh Mama has not been there for a long time. Good not the view?" Now it's tired. But hearing successive questions from Tami he was happy. His spirit suddenly returned.
"Yes Mah cold. The view is great."
"How is the hotel? Maid-"
"Well, Arka's wife rest first. He cape tau on the way. Mama don't pity what's the same?" Sekar. He glanced at this man before him.
Sontak Tami stood up. Smothering his mouth, "U-gutun? AAAAAAA Papah kitaaa have Arka juniorrrrr!!" Shouted Tami hysterically. Penetrate the house wall. Sounds all the way to the back RT.
"Arka!" Snapping around pissed. Where there is Utun. Arka mah ngadi.
"Hehe. But I saw Mamah was hysterical. You ran away to the room. Sleeps. Let me hear Mamah. While not satisfied Mamah certainly nyerang you use the question," Arka stroked the head of Sekar. Smack that woman's forehead.
Sekar shook his head gently, "No papa. How can I sleep. Not sleepy either. You sleep when you sleep. I'll wake up when the cooking is done."
"So. His sleep will be the same Sekar," Arka raised her eyebrows. Circling his stomach on the slender waist of Sekar.
"Sha! Seeing Mamah was not good," Sekar pointed at Tami using his eyes.
"Mama mah masa bodo. Peepy. Excited again so-called Arka Junior," Arka chuckled at Tami who was prancing while kissing Arman. Arman just stroked his chest patiently.
"You if you're old don't like Mom. Mamah tuh bawel," Arka poked Sekar's nose slowly.
"You know how you know your own mother."
"No papa hehe at all. Now the arka don't soybeans ya." Arka. Flicking Sekar's forehead slowly, "If cape ater can't exercise in bed."
"Buck!!!"

"Where are you? Jay's surf?" Arman approached Arka who was sitting on the front porch alone. Waluyo was going to service Arka's car yesterday brought to Bandung. The women seem to be gathering in the kitchen. Iyam-Skar and Anisa are cooking. And Tami is being a reporter all of a sudden. Who continue to shower Sekar with thousands of questions.
"What's smooth Pah?"
"Everything."
A shadow as the first night began to appear in Arka's mind. Makes the man smile.
"Currently." Answer Arka steady.
"Household is not the end. But early. Where you will start a new life with the people you love. For now maybe you two look fine. No problem hit. But we don't know in the future."
Arka looked at Arman. Every advice. Every word that comes out of him will be the lifeblood of Arka.
"Life is not straight. There's a turn, make it to the finish line. When there is a turn, a rocky road, a ravine, a storm, waves, a reminder of Papah. Never leave the car alone. Do not let all difficulties befall your wife. And you, every human being has his limits of patience. Someday, you will definitely be emotional in one of Sekar's attitudes."
"When it happened. Hold your emotions. Don't you leave it to Sekar. You better go, be alone and then come back when your heart is calm. Don't let any words you put out that could hurt Sekar."
"Father is your Father. And Papah's job is to educate you. Maybe your job as a child is done. Your new task awaits. As husband, and father of your children. Papah's message, prepare yourself from now on. Make a solid defensive fort so that at any time if a storm strikes you can survive."
"Marriage is not a game. What you can start and finish as you please. Marriage is a sacred promise, binding two people, uniting two hearts. Do not separate the heart that has been united. Wake up a new heart. Which will be useful to the nation and the state."
Sometimes Arka takes Arman for granted. Because Arman is always joking. But this Arman is a parent. Who has more life experience.
"Yes Pah. Being ready to marry means being ready to bear all the consequences in it. Ready to take on the next challenge. And Arka's ready for all that."
Arman patted Arka's shoulder. Proud of his only son, "Don't change your ready word. Make ready the word start in the struggle of your life. Your responsibility is now greater than ever before. Before being selfish, Papah hopes that you can be considerate of your children and your wife in the future. Papah believes in you. Don't hesitate to come and ask your Papah or your Mom if there's something you don't understand. Do not let the thorn ad in your household. Once the khilaf is okay, as long as it is not repeated. And no violence."
Arka and Sekar have been married for 5 years. But still everything just started. In the past, marriage was-ah just a piece of paper. But now it's another story. Towards a more serious level. Two lives that will give birth to another life.

"Well that's Sekar where you can probably eat that much" Arka commented to Tami. The thing is, Tami is like feeding a starving sumo. Three-legged chicken thighs, white rice mountain stack, 5-piece fried tempeh, 2 pieces tofu, cucumber, and also chili potatoes.
"Diem! Mama doesn't give you to eat. Mom, feed me sekar."
Coneful. Staring Arka. Ask her husband for help. Because Sekar can not spend all his food.
"Mah inget's. It's Sekar. Our daughter-in-law. Not sumo," Arman said.
"Father is also diem! Just not coming. Isn't that right, baby?" Tami asked while pouring a spoonful of tomato sauce.
Sekar's back is slumping. Seeing the contents of the food on his plate that was like he was about to erupt.
Sekar looked at Arka in the hope of pleading. Licked his lips.
"Where might Sekar comment," murmured Arka.
"Heh diem yes! You guys are eating. Diemin Mamah is the same as Sekar." Mama's the same child. Overprotective.
"But that's how Mah eats?"
"Isa. Really want Mamah nyeburin Arka to the pool. Eating a lot of well. Let her utun," Tami held Sekar's stomach. "Not starving." He then kissed her.
It's all because of Arka. Tami should be overprotective. Arka cleared her throat briefly as Sekar glared at her.
"Sekar mm a-anu Mah" parrot Sekar. Want to refuse but don't want to hurt Tami.
"Strong to bribe Arka." Arka got up from her sitting. Take the chair next to Sekar. Sit over there. Took Tami who was also bersds beside him.
"Mamah. Don't disturb Arka."
Tami squealed softly. Arka if his outrageous nature has relapsed emang nyebelin.
"Aaaa open her wide mouth dear," the painstakingly dressed man fed Sekar a meal.
Not yet the food landed in Sekar's mouth. Tami had already jerked Arka's hand, "The real bribe! It's time in love tempe doang. Pake chicken dong!"
Arka scratched her head violently. Dizziness facing Tami. Arman, Anisa and Sekar were just bobbing their heads at it.
"Jaudah. Aaaaa," one mouthful went into Sekar's mouth. Arka waited for the girl to finish chewing it.
"The hunt's on bribe again! That's not a wife's mouth in wine!" Duh Tami's. The mouth of Sekar aja is still monyong ngunyah food.
"Patience patient napa. How about Sekar?"
Just feeling special. His presence was well received in the Arka family. Sekar was not born from a family. There are no parents. At least having Mom is still crazy. It all started with Siska. Because of Siska, Sekar could feel the happiness and warmth of this family.
"In the first drink, do not continue in the rice bribe!" Jerky Tami.
"Mah long ago Mamah Arka bribe chicken bones," said Arka growled. The tail of Tami's eyes could not be separated from the hands of Arka who was painstakingly feeding Sekar.
"You're a insensitive husband. Cats should drink. Not in the jejelin of the food hold!"
"Take the same breath as a cat?!" Shouted Arman.
"Eeh, that's not what it means. Au ah's. Wrong Arka!"
Sekar laughed. Then holding Arka's hand, "Sekar can eat his own Mah. Arka also has to eat. Mama, don't worry. Sekar will eat a lot of kok," said Sekar understandingly.
"Fortunately Arka has a wife like Sekar," said Tami amazed.
"What do you want to eat? A chicken? Tempe's?" Sekar pulled the Arka plate that Arka had not spent.
"Ma-"
"Let him take it for himself, baby. Just focus on eating, "cut Tami.
Arka was suspicious. This is what his real son or Sekar anyway. Kok Arka so feel the outcast.

"Duh Mamah can't do it baby. Papah Arman is leaving town tomorrow. No papa, huh?" Tami and Arman are already together. Want to go home. It's already night time. While Anisa has come home since then delivered Waluyo.
"Yes. How Arka want to feel good if there is Mamah," said Arka plotting her eyeballs.
"Awas Ka people's children should not be used as dinner," said Arman.
"No. Arka just wanted to check Utun doang kok," Arka nudged Sekar's arm. The girl snorted.
"Utan utun utan utun. Let Sekar rest. You think the one below doesn't cape what?!" Tami keceplosan.
"Yuk Pah is home. Next time Mamah plays again, baby," Tami kissed Sekar's old forehead. Then walk away from there.
"Lha? Arka not kissed, Ma?" Shouting Arka.
"Request the same!"
Arka. Staring at Sekar with a cry, "You're horrified what Mamah said just now?"
Just glaring, "No."
Arka snorted bitterly, "Not going to deny the meaning." The cup! One kiss landed on Arka's lips.
"Bibir Sekar pedes!" Shouted Arka after tasting her lips.
Don't want to be horrified. Anyway teasing Sekar is my canduku
Opa?
