Secret of the Heart

Secret of the Heart
Redeem Time



Miko walked over to the book lying on the bed. His mind floated as he had to let go of all the feelings of love in the heart. Bimo's half-brother who was already in a serious relationship with me. There was no way he could snatch anything from Bimo except his father's affection just yet.


"You have to give up, son. He's your brother, you're brothers. Know that she needs more affection than you do" the soft, persuasive voice of her mother was present in Miko's dream.


"Why does Miko always give up Mom? She always gets everything while Miko is alone here. This is very unfair" cried Miko.


"Let time answer. Just wait, if he's right for you, he'll come back to you."


The sound gradually disappeared and woke Miko from sleep. Miko wiped a drop of tears at the end of the fertilizer. Her heart ached then, meeting the dead mother and telling Miko to give up her feelings for me.


"If that's what you want, Miko will do it. Even though I still don't fully accept it."


At that time it was just letting go and focusing on yourself that Miko did. Trying to pursue the ideals in order to succeed. The love after that for Miko was just an empty word. There is no meaning and purpose. That's why he's always playing around and never taking it seriously.


Miko looked back at the book and finally believed her mother's word first. Time can answer everything. Fate finally sided with Miko, she could cling back to the feelings that once had to be released.


Miko flinched as two soft coiled hands on her waist. A warm hug on a rather cold morning made Miko's smile expand. Happy that was how she felt, she stroked my hand and turned towards the shoulder where I placed my head affectionately.


"Let me make up for the time that's been wasted. About all the feelings you once had. I really love you now Mik," I said softly as I hugged. Miko is still fragrant even though she hasn't had a bath. I can smell the typical Mint Huggo Iced from Huggo Boss on Miko's body. It made me close my eyes with a peaceful and refreshing feeling.


"Thank you Beb," Miko said as she stroked my head and wanted to turn around.


"Stay like this for a while, let me hug you longer" I asked.


Miko smiled happily, she nodded weakly while chuckling.


"Trust me."


"Yes.. really Beb."


"I will say love to you everyday."


"Okay I'll wait."


I smile back putting my head on Miko's back. Time on my side now will not be in vain. This time by holding Miko's hand there was no doubt. Problem that was just a small pebble yesterday will not be able to shake our relationship. I chanted the song verse slowly behind Miko's back.


And I am not me


Without you to hold me


You complete me


You calm me down.


********


"Take me to the office" I beg Miko after everything is done and I can get out of the hospital.


"Just rest, later in the office even noisily you come with a bandage in hand."


"It's just a small wound. There must be a lot of work left behind," I whined as I looked at Miko with a clear face.


"Alright but after that you have to rest. I'd like to talk to Santi's sister, too."


I smiled victoriously after hearing Miko's reply.


"I always lose" Miko sighed while shaking her head still with a sweet smile towards me.


********


"One position, please empty it for me Brother."


Miko went straight to the point when she entered Santi's office. Santi's sister who was seriously staring at the laptop was somewhat shocked by the arrival of Miko.


"Indeed this company belongs to your father? Anyway, why else?"


Santi closed the laptop with his face bent.


"I'm going to get married, how is it possible to be away with Kia. I'm asking for help this time, brother."


Miko put on a clear face to make Santi's sister sneer. Santi's sister threw a small note in annoyance towards Miko. Greeted with pleasure by Miko.


"Please." Miko cupped her two hands as if begging the king.


"You always give me a headache" said Santi, hitting Miko's back with the newspaper.


"Wait a minute, maybe Alan's request to move will be approved. You replace him but stay in the access office not here. Good thing the rule of marrying one office has been revoked if you don't bother once."


"When to get down to SK Alan?"


"Front month at the latest," replied Sister Santi while sitting on the sofa.


"Let's get Riko to the center to take care of everything. You guys just focus on marriage. Consider this a special gift from a sister."


"What about Wiwin? So come with Alan?"


"If Alan moves, Wiwin automatically goes along."


"Then I have to move here. Who will accompany Kia later."


"I've known all the stories, Alan's the stories, none of which are left."


Sister Santi looked at Miko seriously then smiled amusedly.


"Old love can't be fought, right?"


"Gee... Alan had a really bucket mouth. Need to be hit later," Miko smiled seeing Santi's sister laughing.


"I want to make up for all the time I've missed for Kia. For my brother's sake, for me and for Kia's. I regretted that when Kia was left, Bimo didn't try to reach her heart."


"If you try to advance then, you won't win either because Bimo is still around."


"That's Sis. I always give in to everything when it's all about Bimo" said Miko slowly.


"But look who was the last to laugh and could have Kia's heart completely without any pain. You right? So you're the winner Mik. There's no harm in giving up first to win then."


"The fate that brought me could have Kia."


"Whatever it is, you still have Kia's last port" said Santi, leaning on the sofa.


"Thank you, brother. Help us to be close and to live together."


"Redeem time well wasted. Kia's not just a friend but already like a-dik to me. I leave him to you and let me handle all the office."


Santi said that sentence with emphasis on the word sister.


"Thank you, brother. I will not dare to break all my promises to anyone including Brother," explained Miko while standing alone.


"I don't trust you, Mik."


"Thank you for the support. I promise I'll pay back later."


Sister Santi smiled at Miko's earnestness. For him we are all family not superiors and subordinates in the office. The best boss and brother for me.


***********


When I passed by Wiwin's office, he wasn't there.


"Where's Wiwin?"


I asked a staff member who was working.


"Get out with Alan."


I continued to my room. Lisa was so shocked to see me coming. His eyes were staring at my hand that was on the bandage.


"Little incident, it's okay."


We then discussed some work issues that I had postponed due to the application event. Lisa is smart as an assistant, I didn't know that when I was absent she wasn't the one who handled it would be difficult.


"Thank you Lisa, for helping me with my work."


"That's Lisa's job, sister."


I smiled at her, thanks always I told Lisa. Although it was indeed her job, there was no harm in giving a small award even with one sentence.


"Sorry Lisa can't come to Sister's show."


"It's okay, Brother understands."


"Oh. good afternoon, Miko," Lisa exclaimed in shock staring at the entrance.


"It's normal, just call Brother."


Miko then approached and sat down next to me.


"Let's go...."


"Where are you going?"


"We're on vacation on a date."


I was shocked to hear Miko's sudden invitation.


"Red date tomorrow two days. We're on a mountain vacation with my community friends."


"We? Your buddy? I'm coming too?"


"Yes." Yeah."


Miko pulled my hand to get up from sitting and followed her. Lisa smiled amusedly looking at me who was still confused.


********


"Waaa.ahh......"


I screamed in amazement at the sight under the foot of the mountain. It was unspeakable how beautiful it was until I closed my eyes enjoying the breeze blowing as breeze. Miko smiled with satisfaction seeing me happy. He also stood next to me.


The trip here is only three hours from the city. We went with five of Miko's friends. Those who have plans for a reunion after a long time do not meet because of their respective activities. All that is there is their college friend Miko, I assume that when I heard the conversation between them earlier.


Miko's friends seemed happy when they heard we were getting married.


"Finally.... Miko will be stripped of her bachelor status. Good luck to you guys."


The prayer from Miko's friend made me blush. They promised to come at our wedding.


"That's your tent, already prepared," pointed Miko's friend in a tent not far from us standing.


I looked at Miko as if I wanted to ask her why there was only one tent.


"I'll sleep outside, don't worry I'm not a brengs*k man" Miko said with a chuckle.


"It's okay, I want your company. But remember can't be weird yet, later after the new official can."


I'm still traumatized by what happened with Bimo. But Miko seemed to understand that I did not want to violate the norms of life anymore. It was enough because it made me sick and regretted to no end.


********


The cold that bit that night, as we relaxed in front of the tent made me close the jacket wrapped around the body. We joked in front of the campfire while waiting for the ramen noodles that Miko cooked.


I'm already somewhat familiar with Miko's friends. They do not even hesitate to mock Miko, making Miko can only smile.


"You remember no, Miko used to often get A+ because her name is the same as other faculty lecturers' children."


"Yes.kira our lecturer he's a fellow teacher's son."


"Oh yeah, there used to be a girl chasing Miko. He even often took courses even though it was not his college hours. It turns out to be a businessman's son. But when Miko's pursuit, she ran away scared."


"Why Mik?"


"I'm self-conscious, just a kid living in a parlour. How dare I like him," Miko replied while holding my hand and I just smiled.


"Or... Can't open a locked heart?" ask Miko's friend while glancing at her.


"Already! Don't talk about the woman in front of my fiancee."


Until midnight they were still talking. I couldn't stand it and asked permission to go to bed. Miko dropped off but she said she was going to spend time with her friend, so I went to bed first.


"I may not sleep, still want to be with them. You're not angry, are you? I wake up at 4 a.m., we'll see the sunrise."


"really?"


"Yes. sleep. I will accompany you for a while, Beb," Miko said as she stroked my hair.


**********


When I opened my eyes I was shocked. It turned out to be in an offroad jeep that we were wearing at the beginning of the trip. There was no one in the car but when I saw him on the right under the shade tree, Miko sat still with a cigarette and a bottle of coffee in hand.


He smiled to see me get up and get out of the car approaching where he was sitting.


"Morning... Baby." It's."


"Why am I wrapped in such a thick blanket?" I opened the blanket that covered my body.


"So you're warm, or you want to be even warmer? Here I hug."


I let Miko hold me. The air on the mountain is cold. Miko put on a jacket so as not to freeze. I even got out of the car with a blanket.


"Still long?"


"A little while longer, about fifteen minutes," Miko replied as she handed me a coffee bottle.


The gusts of wind brought me closer to Miko and put my head to her chest. I can feel the smell of Miko's breath mixed between cigarettes and coffee. Miko laughed as I closed my nose, but she kissed me on my forehead instead.


"You know, Beb. I used to be eager to see the sunrise with a special person. People who love me and love me. Just this time it could happen."


"Are you happy?" I asked while looking up at his face.


"Yes, I will all be able to do. The desire to be with a partner that cannot be accomplished at that time. I'll redeem them one by one, the desire in my heart" Miko said as she kissed my head and I felt it with my eyes closed.


"He showed up."


Miko pointed towards the sunrise horizon. Reddish orange rays are raised behind the clouds. It appeared slowly beautifully among the still dark atmosphere. Miko took the camera that was in the car and rushed to record.


"It's beautiful."


Miko smiled happily. He pointed the camera towards the sunrise and recorded the look of admiration on my face repeatedly. I've never had this much fun because it's all the first time I've experienced.


"Thank you my Man... I love you. You gave me a new color in my life."

** Easy to encourage others. But for yourself it is very difficult. To fight all of my own I've even thought of giving up. But the heart cannot lie for fear of guilt. Like me, who is afraid to renege on promises with readers.


** Never underestimate someone who has fallen ill and is disappointed. If he has risen and stood back up, you may be the first to feel regret and guilt. Don't forget to say I love you to your partner. Not that bucin, but an expression of affection, so that later not regret after the person leaves.


**Always, I would like to thank the Secret of the Heart. It wouldn't be like this without you. Let us support each other in our work. Don't forget 3M, wash your hands, wear a mask and keep your distance.


** Stay healthy because health is more important, stay happy because we are happy only that feels and stays with Kia. happy reading hope to be entertained.
