PLEASE, LOVE ME, WIDOW

ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE

Assistant Dika again sighed heavily, for some reason the shadow of his little sister's face named Felicia continued to shadow. The shadow continued to be alternated with the image of the Qiandra's face as if it was drawn and painted among the white cloud clouds beneath the plane. Unknowingly the assistant Dika's brain imagined the smiles of the two women of different ages.

Little Felicia who was only 2 years old, a beautiful little girl with brown curls. Brown eyes that glow brightly with a cute face that always makes everyone look at his face will smile happily. Dika's assistant still vividly recalled the moment Felicia exclaimed pleading for Dika's assistant not to leave her.

"Sister Dika, don't go, Brother, Feli is afraid to be alone" exclaimed the little girl in the closet where they were both hiding.

"Be quiet, Feli, I won't be long, I'll just check the situation outside as well as see if mommy and daddy can overcome the situation" said Little Dika trying to calm her sister.

"But sister, Felicia was afraid, what if the bad guy came here while she was away" Felicia sighed tearfully and her body trembled in fear.

"Feli, as long as you stay calm and do not make any sound then you will be safe here. You remember that not a single waiter could find that we were both hiding here. If the servants who are used to this mansion can't find us, let alone the bad guy. So, now you stay calm, and let's just say all those criminals are just servants trying to find you" Little Dika still tried to persuade Felicia.

Still fresh in the memory of the assistant when the incident, then the night was quite late with a speck of rain that was still watering the earth. Dika's assistant, who was studying with her father, was startled by the sound of screaming and the sound of several shots. The father swiftly raised the body of Dika's assistant and ran to the secret room he had shown to Dika's assistant.

"When you stay there, daddy will take your sister and mommy" exclaimed Dika's father as he ran towards Felicia's room. Not long after, the father escorted Felicia into the room.

"Is mommy already inside Dika" asked her father as he placed Felicia near Dika.

"No, Daddy, mommy hasn't been here yet" said Dika with a trembling and confused body.

"When you take care of your sister, hide in that closet, no one will find you. Soon daddy and mommy will pick you up" said the man sternly, "Remember always, we love you very much, no matter what" continued the father again while closing the door of the room which was automatically locked.

"But, Dad ..." exclaimed Dika, but his voice was only reflected back by the thick door that instantly locked him and his sister.

"Sister, Brother Dika, what is this, Feli is afraid, Brother, Feli wants Mom and Daddy" sobs slowly sounded from the little girl who shook Dika's hand as if resuscitating the 10-year-old boy.

"Relaxed Feli, Mommy and Daddy are having something to do, soon they'll come here and pick us up, and then we'll continue the story of Kamaren, you will" dika said in a soft voice trying to calm her sister.

In fact, Dika himself felt very anxious and afraid, he had heard the sound of screaming and gunfire earlier. Dika is very sure it must not be a coincidence when the daddy immediately brought and hid him and his sister in this secret room. Dika was very sure something had happened out there, I don't know what it was.

Following her instincts and her father's message, Dika immediately led her sister to hide in a wardrobe in the room. Although a secret room, but the small room is equipped with facilities such as a warehouse. This is intended to disguise the existence of some secret cabinets in the room. Including the wardrobe that was used as a hiding place for Dika and her sister.

After a long wait, Dika finally took the initiative to come out and see the situation. However, the whining of the sister made her intention stalled and had to go back to trying to convince the sister that there was nothing to fear.

"Sister, I don't want to stay, if you leave then I'll go wherever you go" Felicia said.

Dika sighed slowly, not that she did not want to take her sister away, but Felicia was still too small and her steps were also small. So, if he had to run, his sister would not be able to. Not to mention his sure whining and crying would not understand at dangerous situations and places.

"Well, Brother is not leaving but Brother please stop your crying, we will wait a little while longer, but if there is still no one coming, Brother will leave and you must stay here" dika said to his sister.

"No way, anyway I keep going wherever Brother goes" Felicia cried still with tears.

"Feli Darling, Big Brother is going out to grab a snack for us, Big Brother is hungry, aren't you hungry" Dika asked gently to Felicia.

"I'm hungry, brother, then I'll go with Brother to grab his food" the girl exclaimed with a smile on her tiny lips.

"Can't, dear Feli, Brother will take it quickly, Brother can't bring food while carrying you" said Dika still gently.

"But Feli does not need to be carried, Brother, Feli can walk alone" said Felicia still firmly with his wishes.

"Can't, Feli, Big Brother has to hurry, do you remember Daddy telling us to wait here. If Brother is not fast and when Daddy comes he does not find Brother, then Brother will be scolded Daddy. Does Feli want if Brother is scolded by Daddy" asked Dika again while trying to persuade his sister.

"No, no, Feli doesn't want to be scolded, then we just wait for Daddy to come, Brother don't go" Felicia who really loves her brother did not want if her brother was hurt let alone scolded by his father.

Not that Dika used the compassion of his sister, but he really really wanted to know the situation outside the secret room. Though Dika also knew that in the room in one of the cabinets was available food in sufficient quantities for them for several days.

"Alright, Brother, Feli does not want to be sick because he is hungry, go, Brother, but promise me Brother will be back soon" finally the little girl relented. He was not to the heart that the elder brother had to suffer just because of his will.

Dika smiled with satisfaction, finally his little sister was willing to follow his wishes as well. "No promise, Feli, you know that Brother loves you very much. Brother can't leave you for too long. Then now Brother go first yes, stay here and do not come out before Brother himself comes to pick you up" said Dika while hugging the little body of the sister lovingly.

"Well, sister" said Felicia, in fact she was very heavy parting with her brother, but she also did not want her brother to get sick because of him. Dika let go of his embrace to his sister slowly, then after noticing there was indeed no one else in the room he immediately came out of the wardrobe.

When he began to step with his heart to approach the door of the room, he knew that the door was indeed locked, it could only be opened with a password if from the outside. But if from the inside, the locked door can be opened without a password. Dika opened the door trembling, and after it opened he peeked through the small gap first.

Dika saw everything so calm, then he tried to listen to all the suspicious sounds. And after she felt everything was safe, Dika slowly walked out of the room and returned to the room from outside. Dika stepped by settling down while sharpening all his senses of sight and hearing.

"Let go, let us go, what you want" a woman's cry sounded so bitter in Dika's eardrum.

"Mommy" hissed Dika who was very familiar with his mother's voice. Dika immediately ran towards the source of the female voice he believed to be his mother's. When Dika arrived on the ground floor, he was jolted when he saw the mother was already drenched in blood, but was still violently pulled and put in the car.

The distance from where Dika stood was quite far from his mother's position, but he could clearly recognize his mother. The little man's face hardened with tears streaming down his cheeks as he watched his mother being treated like that. He immediately ran after the car that had started moving leaving the courtyard of their mansion.

Dika continued to run after the car without paying attention to the pain in his legs that do not use footwear at all. Dika kept running and forgot that his sister was still in the mansion. His sadness at seeing his mother's condition made the young man forget everything.

Until finally he was so exhausted, and subconsciously collapsed to the ground by constantly calling his mother. "Mommy .... mommy" exclaimed Dika in a weak voice. Then he felt everything go dark around him, and the young man fell unconscious on the lonely roadside.

I don't know how long he's been lying on the side of the road. His eyes slowly opened as he felt his body so cold and in so much pain. "Mommy, Dika is sick" he exclaimed in a weak voice.

Apparently, the young man was still unaware of what had happened to him.

After a while, Dika finally tried to open his eyes and how surprised he was when he saw the darkness that enveloped the surroundings. Until he was struck with an explosion that made a very loud sound and immediately the surrounding situation became a little bright.

When he tried to remember what had happened, and when he looked at the great flames, he realized.

"Felicia" he exclaimed then ran with his weak body back towards their luxurious mansion which was now being engulfed by the red hero.

His small, limped steps made him arrive very late in front of the mansion which was now already a sea of fire. There was no one to be seen there, only the sound of fire still trying to scorch whatever was left of the ruins of the mansion.

Little Dika fell down with a regretful cry, "Feli ..... Feli ... forgive Brother, darling, forgive Brother" he sobbed grievously. The pain all over his body plus the pain of his heart because the loss of his only sister made Little Dika fall unconscious again.

No fire engines, no ambulances or other vehicles came to the site. Though the sound of the explosion is quite loud in addition to the fire that is so large, it should immediately attract attention. However, in reality, no one had come to that place at all.

Little Dika wriggled as she felt the rain falling on her face. Slowly he opened his eyes and the first glance he saw was the rubble of the luxurious mansion belonging to his family which had become a pile of black charcoal with a smoke left. Slowly the previously small rain spots turned increasingly dense.

Little Dika slowly woke up and looked around her, then she found a gazebo near the park which often became a place to take shelter with Felicia. Dika immediately swung a step towards the gazebo to protect himself from the rain that began to get thicker.

When Dika arrived at the small gazebo, he immediately climbed on top of the bale there and wrapped his cold body with a thick blanket available there. And the rain fell very heavily, accompanied by lightning and strong winds. Luckily Dika had taken refuge in the small gazebo, he immediately lowered the bamboo curtain around the gazebo to avoid the wind and rain spots into the gazebo.

The warm blanket and cold atmosphere made the young man's body feel comfortable. The tiredness and sadness that plagued him slowly made him decide to sleep in a dream. Tears still flowed in the corner of her eyes as she slept. Little Dika hopes that when he wakes up, everything will only be a nightmare.

Unfortunately Dika's hope did not come true, because when she opened her eyes the next day, she was still lying on top of the bale bale gazebo. The piercing coldness made him back to close the blanket until it covered his entire body. However, she could not continue to remain silent, the hunger in her stomach made Dika reluctantly open her blanket.

Dika slowly opened the bamboo curtain that covered the entire gazebo. And slowly the gentle sunlight immediately greeted the young man's eyes. And the scenery he saw again was only the rubble of his luxurious mansion. Tears flowed again on the little man's cheeks, the silence around him as if supporting his crumbling mood was dim.
