Now he understands why Tama's bathing suit is priced expensive. Besides being made of premium materials that are soft and light when touching the skin. The model is also simple. And most of all do not form curves of the body.
But the comfort felt is inversely proportional to the scenery presented in front of the eyes. Tama is seen chatting while laughing with a woman at the edge of the pool.
Although surprised, he kept walking closer. Maybe it's Tama's acquaintance. Or distant relatives. Relatives can be. Accidentally met in the crowd. His mind worked quickly devising 1001 good prejudices.
But once Tama stood up because of Reka's call. Then the beautiful woman who wore an open-designed swimsuit on the chest and back also stood up. Swinging spoiled even to climb the stairs the most rides test the guts. His fingers suddenly shook. His heart was racing like he was chasing.
Deg deg deg deg deg deg deg deg deg ....
Especially when his slow memory began to realize, if the woman who stuck like a stamp next to Tama is not a stranger. They had met before, had a chance to talk even though only making small talk, but made him hastily promise to himself to avoid Tama.
The woman ....
His head suddenly throbbed. Breathing feels tight. Puncture pain suddenly attacks the chest. The heartbeat should not be asked, increasingly making his hands tremble in a flood of cold sweat. Knees are also weak without power. It feels like fainting. When he saw the giant tire on Tama, Samara, Icad and Reka were thrown into a giant funnel and then crashed into the depth of the pool. With Tama's arms reaching for Samara's body to avoid drowning. Make him immediately turn around and walk straight ahead without looking again.
What was that?
Feels very confusing. Throughout his memories with bang Is, all that was left between them was love and longing. No shortness of breath, chest pain or weak knees because of seeing the bang Is with other women. Everything was beautiful and fun.
He walked in hasty steps into the cabin. Shaking your head repeatedly when you realize that a bunch of strange feelings that suddenly hit at one time was .. jealousy?
Why should I be jealous?
Is it because I don't want to see Tama with other women? Istighfar Pocut, you've just been connected by a hitch. Not the great holy promise.
Or feeling helpless? Low self-esteem because the background of his life is like heaven and earth when compared with the life lived by Tama also Samara.
Or just envy? Envy Samara for looking beautiful and confident. Can attract the attention of Tama by talking familiar, lithe, laughing cheerfully in pleasure. Until Tama did not think long to reach Samara's body so as not to fall from the tire?
If so, how bad his nature and attitude are. During this time, he never felt jealous of the life or happiness obtained by others. He was always guided, all had been outlined even long before he was born into the world. His job is only two, be grateful and be patient. It's more than enough.
But now? In a short time, you lose your sense of common sense. Blind jealousy has swept her into the most disturbing tides of feelings. Turning him into a foreign figure shrouded in envy.
Astarghfirullah's.
Supposedly, he can be calmer and not carried away by feelings. Stay standing waiting until the action on the most daring rides is complete. Then walk straight up to Tama and the kids.
Honey, he's not that confident.
Samara's charming and seductive look in front of Tama has dashed her courage. Shaking guts to get closer to Tama is also Reka.
Who himself? It's nobody. Only a lucky man happens to be lured by a man as great as Tama. It has no advantage to be proud of. Especially a force that inspires. Only very ordinary women tend to be weak.

Tama
"Sip." He smiled with satisfaction at the result of the bond that formed the ribbon on Sasa's bathrobe, when the little girl suddenly exclaimed cheerfully.
"Eh, it's Mama! Where's mom from? Searched. Sasa hungry ...."
His head turned 180 degrees and saw Pocut walking into the cabin. Directly hit by Sasa who ran slumped into the embrace.
"Hungry, Mama ...."
"What would you eat?"
"What matters is good. Hihih ...."
He walked closer. "Where from?"
"Mushaola."
He nodded. "What do you want to eat?"
"It's easy."
Making him switch to asking Sasa because Pocut's answer is too short and does not describe the solution. "What would you eat?"
"Fried chops aren't there, Om?"
He remembered the logo of the fast food restaurant franchise he had seen in a row of food court stands. "It seems to exist."
"Mouuu."
He ordered several menus at once for the six of them and asked for inter-service facilities. While Pocut and Sasa entered the inner room. While waiting, he checks his phone while smoking.
"Haloooo!" Sasa jumped out of the inner room with a wide smile. "I've changed my clothes."
"Not swimming anymore?"
Sasa shook his head. "Cape, uh. Shrimp. Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk! Diii! Smell asaaap."
He immediately grinds the remaining cigarette half into the ashtray. Forgetting to be with kids right now. "Don't like cigarette smoke?"
Sasa shook his head again. "Romans. Make shortness of breath. Yes Ma, yes?"
He turned his head towards Pocut who had just emerged from the inner space. But Pocut ignored him. I asked Sasa.
"Switch her hair first, Sa."
Sasa complied by sitting next to Pocut. But a second later screamed. "Adudu! Sick Mama! Don't loud. Sasa's scalp will peel off. Slow down."
He laughed at Sasa's laughter. But when he turned to look at Pocut, the woman did not react. Keep combing Sasa's hair with a flat face.
"Are you both allergic to cigarette smoke?" It opens the topic.
Pocut just kept quiet and nodded.
"Of!" Sasa's call undoes his intention to ask Pocut again. "Where to go, huh? Not here, anyway. What ... Don't-don't get lost? Hihih ...."
"Let's be content playing" he replied. "If you're hungry, you'll come here yourself."
"Oiya, yes." Mangosteen sasa with a serious face. "Abang Umay if again fun to play, go home hungry doang. Hihihi .. trus abis it, scolded mama, deh."
"Umay, if you play, don't forget the time." Sasa demonstrates Pocut's style of scolding Umay. "Remember prayer, remember learning, later you can not watch tv for two days."
He laughed at Sasa's behavior. Then glance at Pocut who is moving bottles of mineral water and milk boxes from the cabin shelf to the table.
"Mama's mad, Sa?"
"Often. Hihih ...." Sasa, as usual giggled while covering his mouth with both hands. "But the same bang Umay doang. Same Brother Icad is rare. Same with Sasa .. never. Hihih ...."
He laughed while watching Pocut who was still composing drinks with a flat face.
"Pity bang Umay, dong. Mama's scolding continues."
"Resid .. bang Umay likes jail, anyway. I often don't look at my mom. So scolded, deh," Sasa replied as he grabbed the UHT milk that Pocut had just placed. "You want this, Ma."
"Can." Pocut. But still not looking at him. Even though he was staring at that pretty face.
"Cabin number three? Last time I ordered at a restaurant ...." A purple clerk was already standing in front of the cabin door.
"Yes." Yeah." He let in.
Behind the purple-clothed officer were three other officers in blue shirts. Carrying a tray containing the food he ordered.
"Thank you." He kept some money on the tray as a tip after all the food was on the table.
"Is there anything else to order, sir?"
"Enough."
"Well, thank you for ordering at our restaurant. Enjoy it."
"Wah .. The food is very good." Sasa looked at the dishes on the table in amazement. "Make all of us, Om?"
He nodded. "Come, Sasa .. eat. He said he was hungry."
"Shih ...." Sasa laughed happily. "Thank you, Om."
He rubbed the top of Sasa's head.
Then turned to Pocut who was arranging the dishes according to the number of six of them. "Not eat?"
Pocut.
"I eat first." He grabbed the plate that Pocut still held to fill with white rice. "Hungry."
Pocut did not answer. But still drag the spoon and fork towards him to eat the Betawi soto menu that is an option.
He ate while listening to Sasa's mitraliur-like babble. Something is told. From the start of Umay's magical behavior to the three new Sasa kittens.
"The cat's so funny to know, Om." Sasa told me excitedly. "If his mother finished eating, his son would immediately nen. Hihihi .. kayak dekgam Aran ...."
"Thereafter basking on the terrace all day. Leyeh-leyeh overheating. Hihihi .. gumussshhh ...."
He who had finished eating immediately gulped down the mineral water while glancing at Pocut. But the bait is not welcome. Because Pocut still ignored him and put on a flat face without expression.
Well. Something happened (something happened).
"Why?" He asked when Sasa was washing his hands in the sink.
"It's okay" Pocut replied briefly.
"Tomorrow Dudun who went home," he continued while looking at the cellphone. "Take the terms for the hearing."
"Trial?" This was the first time Pocut had looked at her even at a glance. Because he's straight down again.
"We got married before we got married."
Pocut.
"To get to the same KUA passport, Agus took."
Pocut nodded again.
"Unfortunately there's someone WO who wants to see you."
"WO?" Pocut turned back. And he did not waste this golden opportunity. Staring deeply at Pocut while smiling.
"WO Dara's recommendation. I don't have time. So you directly communicate with the WO people. Later accompanied by Anja. Let him be charged."
"Don't hesitate to chat all your wishes about the concept of the desired marriage" he continued.
"Same Mama Om again chat what the hell, how do you think it's so serious?" Sasa who had returned from washing hands looked at the two of them in turn.
He laughed as he ruffled Sasa's hair. "You know it."
"Well, can you play first?" Pocut turned to look towards Sasa. "Mom will talk to you for a minute."
Sasa nodded. "Yes, Mama." Then move on to the inner room. "Watch tv, can you?"
"May," replied Pocut who looked back at him.
"Can't worry, Mama ...." Sasa's whining got him up to help turn on the TV. When he returned to the chair, the trio of guys came in with gasping breaths.
"Eating .. eating ...." He shoved a plate of burgers and fries that were still intact in front of Umay. "Cad's? Eaten? The designs?"
Icad who was washing his hands in the sink nodded.
But I decided to go to the toilet first. "sticky. Take a shower."
He invited Pocut to move to sit on the sofa on the terrace of the cabin. It is located closer to the cabin door so that other visitors who pass by can easily see them.
"Is it not excessive?"
"What?"
"Use WO services and ...."
He shook. "Please don't hesitate. It's the standard thing I can do."
"Fees ...."
"Don't think about the cost." He looked at Pocut. "Just think about me."
Pocut who last night smiled and laughed a lot, now just silently lowered his head. Not responding to his appeal at all.
"Is there a problem?" He still guesses. But I hope the guess is wrong. Because guessing the contents of a woman's heart is many times more difficult than guessing the contents of the head of a captured criminal.
Just then, one of the visitors who happened to be passing in front of their cabin suddenly called out.
"Sir Capolres?"
He and Pocut looked at the same time.
"Sir Kapolres' time at that restaurant, right?" Excited young woman wearing a two-piece swimsuit intersected low chest with a face sumringah. "Remember me, sir?"
His forehead scrunched up the sign of thinking hard. Pay attention to the sexy woman who is now standing at the cabin door with three friends who are no less sexy. Think about where they have met. And it must be done under the keen supervision of Pocut.
"Yen tak sawang sorote mripatmu (if I see the look in your eyes) ...." The woman actually sang with a melodious voice. "Forgets, Father? Well, sad to not be recognized by the Father."
He scratched his head though it didn't itch. Because I can't remember anything about the woman who started to approach him.
"Izin come in, Father." The woman and her three friends walked into the cabin smiling. "Can you take a photo together, sir? Make that a memento."
The one who was still confused finally nodded. His memory of women is indeed lousy. Except those related to Pocut of course.
"Oh ... same mother again, huh?" The docile-haired lady greeted Pocut while half-bending. Then switch to regretting it. With his three friends behind following.
"This family vacation, Commander sir?" The woman pointed at the table filled with children with faces of astonishment.
"That's ... all his children?" The woman is still gawking. "Well, it's active, Bund?" A moment later suddenly giggled. Including his three friends in the back.
"But it seems obvious, sir." The woman glanced seductively. Makes her laugh while shaking her head.
"Excuse me, Mother." The woman looked down at Pocut. "Can you take a picture of me, Mom? Relax .. We don't bite, really." Then back to sniggering.
"Can ...." Pocut smiled.
Without the slightest hesitation, Pocut asked for the mobile phone of the feather-haired antique lady. "Do you want to photograph it?"
"Switch, thank you very much Mother. In addition to beautiful, it turns out that the mother is also good and not arrogant," she cried with excitement. "The Father chose Mother over me. My joke hihihihi ...."
He finally received a photo invitation with the four women in sexy clothes. With Pocut taking the picture.
"Again?" Pocut asked because the four women did not move from behind his back.
"Enough Mommy .. enough ...." The dumb-haired lady giggled. "Thank you, Mommy ... Mr. .. healthy always .. sorry if we're cheering. After that, when else can I meet with a handsome pakpol hihihihi ...."
He narrowed his eyes at the smiling Pocut as soon as the four women left. Now even Pocut laughed while keeping his mouth shut. Just like Sasa.
"Is something funny?"
Pocut still closed his mouth while shaking his head. Then murmured slowly. "Honey Bee duo?"
"What?"
"The fans of Mas."
He laughed. Immediately remembered if the woman with the hair of a bull is a member of Duo Beehun, who filled the welcoming event of his new duties in Jakarta some time ago.
"You know them?"
Pocut hissing while glancing. "Their songs are played on all television stations, neighboring radios, sellers of DVD stalls in the market ...."
He's still laughing.
"After Mas there is Duo Bee Honey, his friend Duo Bee Honey, Samara, and many more." Pocut looked at him with an accusatory look. "How many women's carriages are lining up behind Mas?"
He laughed at Pocut's question. "You're jealous."
But Pocut even gave him a sharp look.
"But I like it" he continued, staring deeply into Pocut's face. "From now on you have to get used to it."
"It's customary to see that woman's woman me ...." Pocut did not continue the sentence.
"Custom to be my wife. The only."
Pocut's face immediately splashed red. And that made her smile happily.
Apparently, this is how it feels to be envied. Got you (get you).

He looked at the pile of shipping boxes on the table and some of them had to be stored in the closet because they could not fit. None have been opened yet. He felt ... not yet.
But, after the fun trip they did today. Looking at the smiles of Reka and Icad, the children's cheer, Tama's attitude, even the presence of Samara and the Honey Bee Duo. More and more aware of the door of the future with Tama.
"I've ordered to Anja, not more than mid-month," Tama said as they sat facing each other on the cabin couch. "Because at the beginning of the following month I've been in education."
He sees the calendar on his phone. That means, one month ahead.
They want to get married next month.
This fast?
He never dared to think even though a sparkling ring had been embedded in his ring finger. I always felt like everything was just a dream. The most unexpected beautiful dreams that soar to settle down and do not want to return.
"Don't get tired." Tama smiled. "Say everything you want and someone else will."
"We will rarely meet. Communication may be more through mobile phones. But you should know ...."
"You're the one (you're the only one)."
He went to open the closet to pick up the notebook belonging to bang Is. There are dozens of notebooks whose contents he memorized right out of his head. His lines. The story behind it.
Carefully, count the number of books. Complete nothing is lacking.
The thought of a gift box that was deliberately purchased at the store bang Ahmad. Green colored box, bang Is's favorite color. The inclusion of dozens of books into the box until neatly arranged.
Then, with trembling hands and a shivering body, he tore off the middle sheet of the book containing Tama's writing. Then start filling it with lines of sentences that make tears fall apart.
---
Beloved brother, dear brother,
Thank you for all the wonderful memories you gave us.
Husband best. Greatest dad. A name that remains in the hearts of the four of us.
Children will always pray for their children throughout their lives. I will remind him not to forget.
Be happy there, brother.
Rest in peace.
Until we meet again.
Time I always look forward to.
Allohumaghfirlahu warhamhu wa'afihi wa'fu'anhu.
Who always loved you, though,
Adek cantek boh hate.

Her tears flowed as she folded the paper. Put it in an envelope and then keep it on the cover of the top book.
As he continued muttering prayers, he closed the box with shivering hands. Glue the tape around the box until sure it won't open easily. Then keep it in the deepest part of the closet that is difficult to reach.
"Until God brings us together again, brother." He muttered while biting his lips hard.
If all goes well, next month she'll be another man's wife, Tama. He certainly had to be fair and respect Tama by keeping all the memories of bang Is. One of the hardest things to do. Not forgetting. But put in the deepest heart space.
Because tomorrow, he began to knit dreams of a future that could be forgotten. A new day with Tama and the kids.
Bismillah.
"Include me, I'm Ayuni from Lokatara Enterprise." A friendly-faced young lady with an active gerik introduced herself. "We'll help Mom and Mr. Tama organize a dream wedding."
He entrusted completely to Anjani.
"Beres, Brother." Anjani hugged him tightly. "It feels like a dream."
"Because you invited a number of state officials who use special security, then we recommend hotels that can accommodate these security needs." Ayuni agilely explained in detail.
And Anjani is quick to help him in everything.
"This is a good gift, brother."
"Tomorrow we'll start the food test, brother."
"Fitting don't forget, brother."
"Voucher pre wedding care package from Dara tea will be used when, Sis?"
And he could hardly believe it when Anjani gave an example of an invitation to be printed.
Original design by: IU_Yoonie
"This fast?"
"If you agree, tomorrow goes straight to the print." Anjani smiled looking at him.
"Because the invitation to father number one should have been sent a few months earlier. This is a special dispensation sus .. because it was only sent a month before." Anjani laughs.
But a second later Anjani grumbled. "Mas Tamaaaa! We all know again, all of us. Make people as complex as panting. Hadeeeh."
"But it's okay." Anjani laughed again. "I'm happy to be repotined like this. I'm happyaaa ...." Hugging him tightly. "Yes, how happy ...."
