"Bang Vian's... Let's get up" Hana said softly. Vian, who is still unconscious, dreams that Hana is pushing her body and trying to wake her up. Vian tried to open his eyes but could not seem as if his eyes were locked tightly
"Dear where you are" asked Vian fumbling around. But Hana did not answer Vian's question. Vian tried to lift and get up, but his body seemed to be unable to move
"Hiks.. Hix.. Brother wake up" said Hana berlinang
"Abang can't move dear where you are" Vian heard Hana's singing voice as if praying
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
God He is struggling
Guard him....
Protect her...
Because someone was waiting for him...
To go home....
๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
"Uhukis.. Uhuk... "
"Finally you wake up too" said Dika relieved
"What's going on?" Vian asked trying to sit leaning against the wall holding his spinning head
"You were unconscious 5 hours ago because of a gunshot wound to your shoulder. I thought you were dead because your tone was getting weaker"
"So I dreamed Dika, I was lying down and Hana tried to wake me up. I tried to open my eyes and lift my body up, but it was as if I could not move. Not long after, I heard a melodious voice hana who seemed to be praying for me, after which my body felt pain and slowly I realized" Vian explained
"That's probably the bond between the two of you. Maybe right now he is worried about you, so he prays that you are okay" said Dika and embraced by Vian with a smile
"You were right Dika. Where are we at now, by the way?"
"We were detained in this place after collapsing from inhaling toxic gas last night. And our friends are also unconscious" said Dika observed other soldiers who were also held still lying weak. Not long after, the soldiers began to roar and gulp down a bottle of water divided by 4
"It turns out you're conscious. I thought you were dead" said the man the soldiers identified as the man who yesterday refused to give his papers during interrogation in the border region
"Who are you" Vian insisted
"Currently, you don't recognize me" the man opened the half-cover of his face. The soldiers rounded their eyes perfectly to see the leader of the rebellion in N village that they had killed standing before them
"You're alive, but how is it possible" Raka said in confusion
"Haha... The one you killed was my twin brother. I'm trying to find you guys to avenge his death"
"But your brother... "
"SILENCE" cried the man named Arada
"I will avenge the death of my brother and mother. Because of you, my mother had a heart attack and died after learning my brother had died. Now is the right time to finish you off Hahahaha.... " Say Arada laughed out loud, but his laughter stopped because he saw the face of the six officers without the slightest fear
"You're not afraid of death"
"Of course not. We are willing to die for the dragon we love" Vian said
"Ohoho you apparently, I remember if you killed my brother. Children, show him what it feels like to endure pain as death approaches him" Arada told his men
Arada's men open the cell and force Vian out of the cell
"If you dare to hurt my best friend, I will break your hands" Dika threatened
"Before breaking our hands, break your cell bars first. Hahahah" Laughter to Arada's men.
Arada's men raised Vian's hands up and tied him with two ropes hanging from the top of the building. After that they whipped Vian blindly
"VIAAANNNN" Shouted Dika who saw members of Arada was torturing Vian
"Hahaha continue the children" Arada ordered
"Stop it before I kill you"
The soldiers were flogged one by one blindly. Their clothes had been stripped of blood, while Vian's clothes had been released when Arada's men had forcibly opened them earlier
Plaque....
Plaque...
Plaque....
"Darling, if you end up here, you have to stay strong yes.brother will wait for you in the universe there" Inner Vian and slowly close his eyes due to the pain that overwhelms his body. The other soldiers fell because they could not bear the pain
************
Tonight, Hannah kept staring at the moonlight with tears soaking her cheeks
"I miss you
Are you okay there?
How are you after 10 days apart.
Questions kept spinning in my mind
My heart had a big fight with my logic
My mind was trying to tell me you were okay there
But my heart kept on churning as if something had happened to you.
I'll hold this heartache
I'll wait for you all my time
Come back soon, I miss you my soldier
Write Hana on the diary book app on her phone
*********
While Vian's five friends were lying weakly with lash scars on their bodies, and for 10 days in captivity, they were not given any food.
"this eat. You must need intake as well" said Arada opened a prisoner cell of soldiers giving 6 trays of food that was immediately devoured by the six soldiers
"Why are you helping us? Don't you want us dead?" Vian asked after finishing his meal
"I want you dead in my hands. But I remember that my god would hate the man who killed his neighbor" Arada replied
"Then what about your revenge on us for killing your brother?" Ask Dika
"It looks like our business is done" Arada said and left the soldiers' detention cells
"It looks like Arada is a good person" Vian said
"Lettu's father, if he wanted to, he could have killed us from the first day we were held" he said
The soldiers nodded and stopped their chatter as the day wore on. Vian smiled at the moon from his cell window, remembering that his wife must be worrying about him right now. Vian lay low and began to pray tahajud for the sake of his heart. Vian's cry broke as he stuck a prayer on Him representing his heart that so longed for the wife's caress and embrace
"O Allah, my Lord, take care of your wife there. Surely he was very worried because since arriving here the servant had not given it at all. Give me my longing for him, O Allah, I can withstand the blasphemy of lashings and the bullet in this body but not the longing that pierces my heart. Please give Hidayah to Arada, because I believe he is a good man, only he is blinded by vengeance. O Allah, the prayer of the servant is only in You where we ask for help. Rabbanaa, aatinaa fid dunyaa hasanah, wa fil aakhirati hasanah, wa qinaa 'adzaaban naar. Hirabbil alamiin"
Arada who heard Vian's prayer was moved and walked away from the basement
"He is a obedient servant. Even she didn't hate me at all after what I did to her. He even wishes me the best. Forgive me O God, forgive me for separating one of Your Servants from his family" Inner Arada held back her tears
Arada was the brother of the leader of the rebellion in the village of N. Arada was a good man and was very obedient to his god. She repeatedly rejects her brother's invitation to join an illegal Armed smuggling group because Arada prefers to keep her mother and Arada hates crime, let alone violence. But since his mother died hearing that his brother had died, Arada's faith has faltered. He begins to seek revenge for his mother's death. Arada joins her brother's Armed group and promises to avenge all her grudges and heartache. When he finds out that the soldier who eliminated his brother will guard the border, Arada immediately launches his action there.
But, Arada again crumbled when he heard the advice of Vian and his friends. Arada thought that his actions had been wrong because it was worth sin because it was against the command of his Lord. Arada tries to come to terms with the circumstances and forgets all her grudges. He will let his mother go, and forgive his brother for doing things that are not good behind his family
"I'm sorry, I promise to make amends. And mother, wait for me in His heaven" Inner Arada gazed upon the beautiful night sky
