It had been days since that fateful night, the handsome man had not shown any sign of opening his eyes. He still lives in his sleep.
Tiara and Mr. Aris are still trying to give the foreign man the best help. Even Mr. Sifuh took action with his expertise in giving potion medicine periodically.
"Ughhhh!!"
Mr. Sifuh and Mr. Aris turned to the origin of the heavy sounding voice. "Thank God, you've awakened sir." Said Mr. Sifuh while carving a smile.
While Mr. Aris also gave thanks by cupping his two hands. He's approaching the bed. Mr. Sifuh understood, he shifted to make room for Mr. Aris.
"What do you feel, what part of it hurts?" Ask Mr. Aris who is now sitting on the lip of the bed.
"I... Argh!!" Ringis the man touched his head. He tried to wake up, but a feeling of dizziness spread in his head that felt heavy.
"Slow down, sir...
The sentence Mr. Aris hangs.
"What's your name, sir?" Asked Mr. Aris, he was quick to help the man who insisted he wanted to sit leaning on the headboard.
"I don't remember." he replied weakly, the poor man seemed confused at the thought of an answer that should have been so easy to give. But he really doesn't remember it.
Mr. Aris glanced at Mr. Sifuh who was behind him. "Here, have a drink." Mr. Aris is offering water. I hope after this the guy will remember his name.
But no, the man still nodded. The harder he tried to remember, he still could not remember anything.
"Looks like he lost his memory Mr. Aris." Bright Mr. Sifuh.
...*****...
"How is he now uncle?" For the umpteenth time, the beautiful woman who is not even 20 years old continues to worry about the man who a few hours ago woke up from his long sleep.
For almost 4 days, the man who is now trying to remember everything that happened to him is still examined by the elders there.
With a distinctive herb that is made from various foliage belonging to the locals. Slowly the wounds that were almost all over his body, continued to show healing.
"Aryan's been a lot better Ra." Mr. Aris replied with a smile that had not faded since.
Tiara frowned, Aryan? is that the name of the stranger? but it sounded very familiar to Tiara.
"Aryan?" Ask Tiara.
"I mean uncle, the man. The man looks like he lost his memory Tiara." Bright Mr. Aris, whether he should be sad, or happy.
He also mourned the calamity that befell the sturdy and handsome adult man. But he also felt happy because he could think of the man as his dead son. His figure is not much different from the child, especially the age of the two looks the same age.
Tiara understood, her uncle was thinking of his late son Aryan.
"Sir, are you okay?" Tiara approached Aryan, sitting on the edge of the bed the man was using.
The man who was now leaning on the head of the bed fixed his gaze on the soft sound.
The woman looked at him. Flickering eyelashes, with bright brown netra that looks so beautiful in the eyes, the look in his eyes has the beauty of a rose that is bursting.
"Did you know, this is Tiara. My niece." That's the sound of Mr. Aris, he only returned after 15 minutes ago to deliver the Elder back to his home.
"North... Anandhita's pearls." Tiara extended her hand.
"Aryan right? Uncle Aris has told me everything, it's okay Sir, just slowly remember it." Tiara immediately interrupted, she displayed her smile. Smile like the sun in the spring.
"Pearls.." he murmured slowly. Yeah, she's as pretty as a pearl. Very lovely.
...*****...
Tiara painstakingly helped Aryan put his clothes back on. The condition of the man is still a little weak but because of his relatively young age, making his recovery relatively fast.
After almost a few weeks, it was Mr. Aris who always helped him if he wanted to go to the bathroom. But lately Aryan has been able to clean his own body, eat with his own hands, and walk slowly just to get out of the room.
"I can do it myself!" prevent Aryan from holding Tiara's hand that was about to help button her pants.
Ah. It's shameful!.
Tiara was just doing her duty as usual, she had absolutely no intention of being rude to the man she had not known for a long time. But it seems Aryan is starting to get uncomfortable with his help. This made Tiara and Aryan a little awkward.
"sorry. I just want to get back in the habit of using all of my bully senses, so that it doesn't feel stiff anymore." Said Aryan softly, he did not feel good after seeing the look on the face of the woman seemed to feel guilty.
"A.iya, I understand. Then I'll stay a while." Tiara smiled slightly, embarrassed because she had previously thought no-no. Does her cheeks look red? don't let Aryan see it, he has to get out.
"Wait!" prevent Aryan from gently blocking Tiara's wrist.
What is this feeling? why Tiara's body feels cold. His heart was pounding even tighter, the gentle touch of the man changed the rate at which Tiara's blood flowed irregularly.
"Thank you Tiara, I owe you and Mr. Aris a lot. I don't know what's gonna happen to me if they don't find me. You know, I'm very lucky to be reunited with good people like you." said Aryan, his words so sincerely touched Tiara's heart.
Aryan himself could not deny, God was so good to him that he could meet a girl as good and beautiful as Tiara. The woman was like a wife who always took care of her husband's needs. Until Aryan is comfortable to make.
Tiara smiled softly, she again sat down next to Aryan who was now sitting with her legs dangling to the floor.
"Master, can I ask you something?" tiara asked carefully. He did not want to surprise the man until he was considered impolite.
Aryan muttered softly, he was ready to hear what Tiara was going to ask.
"You sure you don't remember anything, sir, what.... Don't you remember where you lived before?"
The man nodded weakly. Then grabbing Tiara's hand and grasping it.
"Can you not be this distasteful to me? make yourself as comfortable as possible. Hm?"
Yeah, what's wrong if they get along. Aryan no longer wanted any awkwardness between himself and Tiara. That makes him uncomfortable.
Tiara nodded timidly, should Aryan clasped his hand while talking?it's too close.
"Should I hold you, so you can relax?" aryan asked half-temptingly the woman who had since subdued her gaze.
Hearing that, Tiara suddenly looked at Aryan who was now turning her lips, the man smiled sweetly.
Aryan could feel as cold as what Tiara's hand was at the moment, Tiara was always that nervous when dealing with her.
"You tease me, sir." said Tiara, both of them laughing softly. The awkwardness slowly faded away.
...Tbc......
