Sendu Sweetener

PS 49 - Kambali Meeting

Bend day.

I was just sitting in the corner of the room. We're all just done cleaning. I think my body is all crumpled. I let out a breath, I patted my achy back amazingly.

"Detainee 1002, no visit." A guard came.

I also got up straight away. We are all known by number, not by name. No one calls names at all, why.

I know the one who came was Bang Haidar. So, I immediately got up and followed the guard. I didn't even reach the door until someone put their feet in front of me until I almost fell to kiss the floor. That person was Farah's mother. I could only sigh while the other residents laughed at me. Maybe for them, like this is a very funny thing.

I reached my destination, I entered the room devoted to meeting with family or relatives who came to visit. "Thank you, sir." I said to the warden.

Then, I went inside, and how surprised I was to see that the person in front of me was not Bang Haidar. That man was Ghifari. I hurriedly turned around and was about to open the door but suddenly someone blocked my hand.

"Take me off!" I cried while trying to escape.

"I won't let go until we talk." Ghifari.

I certainly don't want to talk to him. Come on, I'm not ready. She was determined not to see him again. I am so ashamed, especially of my position now. I was embarrassed because I had done rude things to him. I was ashamed because I didn't believe it. I am also ashamed of my current status as a prisoner. Anyway I don't want to meet him, not ready yet, not even seem to be ready until anytime.

I continued thrashing until Ghifari finally hugged me. I was silent for a moment and my tears just fell. It feels so comfortable to be in his arms. However, I cannot be protracted.

"Gue miss you." Ghifari said while kissing the top of my head.

Damn it. Why is the sentence and treatment so warm but also stifling for me. Do I have the same feeling? Ah, no, can I say that I feel the same?

No. gabe. I will no longer ruin his life. Suffice it to come into my own life that is sad to be a momentary sweetener. At least he's given me a sweet taste, although it'll never be long but I'm very grateful for that. I will not ask for grandiose things.

"Take off me, Ghifari!" I cried trying to smack his chest so he would let me go. However, as always he is still a stupid, stubborn Ghifari.

"Gue let go but promise first if you want to hear me." Ghifari.

I have no other choice. True what Bude Ulfa said in his letter. Ghifari was indeed cunning, having a thousand and one ways to achieve his desires. "okay." My answer came in the end.

Ghifari immediately let go of his embrace to me, I immediately took a few steps back and was about to flee to the back but his hand landed back on my wrist.

"Lo promised." Ghifari. He took me to sit on a bench that was prepared. There were only the two of us there. We sat facing each other. I rubbed my face violently, hoping that she would not see my tears.

"Where is Bang Haidar?" I asked without bothering to look at her.

"He's outside." Answer Ghifari.

"Ck, you broken promise." My speech. Bang Haidar has promised me that no one can see me but him. If anyone comes to see me other than Bang Haidar, then I won't want to be met by anyone.

"Lo nyokap keep nangisin lo." Ghifari.

I immediately turned to Ghifari, "Lo must be lying. Mama must be happy with her husband."

I heard my mom and dad are back together. It was much better, I did hate my father a little who could not keep my mother, but I knew that my father was the source of my mother's happiness.

Previously, Bang Haidar also said that Ghifari and his mother had left the house, and my mother's family and my father's family wanted my parents to come back. My mother initially refused to think of me, but after Bang Haidar submitted my request to my mother for my mother to return to my father, she finally agreed.

I don't know the continuation but what Bang Haidar said is that my mother's health is improving, I'm very grateful about that.

"What is the way he is happy when his son is here? Don't want to be released, don't want to be mengelianin, don't want to be appealed." Ghifari.

I totally reject everything. Fifteen years is enough time for what my money is doing. I don't want any deduction for my punishment, let it be. Let me be like this, atoning for the sins I have committed.

"Why do you ker- ... Your neck why?" Ask Ghifari.

I was shocked and covered my neck. I'm sure what Ghifari asked was my neck that Farah's mother checked last night. I almost died so I'm sure the marks are still blue.

"Lo better go home." I said.

"Why's your neck?" Ask Ghifari.

I just kept quiet and turned the other way, "Gue is not papa." I said.

"Jawab my question, Ra. Your neck why?" Ghifari asked who started to stretch out her hand but I chose to stay away.

"Gue answered if I didn't." I said

"Lo di malikin in there?" Ask Ghifari.

I shook my head.

"Gue can't be this confident, Ra. I will still find a way to liberate you. And you have to." Ghifari.

"NO. I'LL STAY HERE." I shouted.

"ARA!" Ghifari.

I was shocked to death to hear his voice so loud. This room is fortunately soundproof, otherwise the guards will come and prolong the business.

"Sorry ..." Ghifari.

I gulped, this was the first time in my life to be yelled at by him like this, I knew that he was very disappointed in me, but I still felt pain.

"Lo better go. I killed my own bude. So stop asking me to appeal or something. It's my life. Guelah has the right to choose my own way of life. Forget me, Ghif. Forget that you've ever known me." I said. "In that fifteen-year-old bracket he couldn't get back to his life. So please stop asking me to make it outside more flat."

My tears just fell, I hurriedly wiped them away.

"Lo didn't kill anyone. You're just martial arts so no one gets hurt anymore." Ghifari.

"Sampe he died it's a killer, Ghif. I'M A KILLER." I said.

I got up from my seat and directly walked towards the exit, Ghifari hurriedly held my hand again. I immediately passed his hand.

"Please tell Bang Haidar. He broke his promise. So I'm never going to be found again." I said.

Ghifari did not even reply, the door of the room was opened from the outside, a warden came.

"The time of visit is over." Said the warden.

I'm grateful because it means I have to part with Ghifari.

"Sir, I'm asking for fifteen more minutes. Ara! Don't go Ra! I'm not done talking!" Ghifari.

I did not care about him and continued to walk quickly without even looking. Even so, I know that he is now being evicted by the officers. That's better.

At least, now I can see with my own eyes how Ghifari is doing. It turns out he lived well and healthy. Although it looks chaotic and he looks thinner than the last time we met.
