The presence of Dika in the Hanum family gives its own color. Its easy nature dilutes every mood state becomes more lively.
Dika painstakingly returned the smile that was engraved on the tip of the lips and the laughter that adorned Hanum's face.
The hope of the family with the presence of Dika can restore the nature of Hanum as before.
That morning Dika was ready to pick up Hanum. They both promised to go around the village. There was a smile of hope highlighted the middle-aged man's eyes. Seeing his eldest daughter want to do activities outside the house.
A knock on the door was heard from outside and a greeting was heard. Mom has been waiting for these days. There seems to be hope his efforts will succeed to restore the joy of his daughter.
"Assalamualaikum aunt," greetings Dika.
"Hanum was ready from earlier Dika, eagerly mother said."
Before long Hanum came out of the room with a faint smile adorning at the end of her lips. Approaching the man he had promised to see his long-dead hometown.
More than 10 years Dika did not return home because of work monitored by people. There was a longing for Dika's birthplace and childhood, especially with Hanum.
They spent a lot of their childhood together. Hanum is the closest cousin sister and there is a sense of longing that hit on his sister.
The pain pierced his heart when he learned of the events that happened to his brother who had always been protected and the affection he gave more than other cousins.
After a long walk around the village they stopped two-wheeled vehicles right in a lake. Leaving his legs while holding Hanum's hand towards a seat facing the lake.
"Hanum still believes in brother and still considers Hanum's protector?, asked Dika gently while not removing the grip from Hanum's hand."
"Why did you ask that?, said Hanum."
Eliminating every difficulty that existed in front of Hanum starting from Hanum was still a child. Dika was always beside Hanum like this time.
"Hanum knew that my sister had returned to Hanum's village" he said with eyes looking at Dika's face with sadness.
Seemed shocked on Dika's face after hearing Hanum's words. Knowing there is no way Dika left work there for a while and returned to the village just a longing for family and birthplace.
"There is more to it than that" said Hanum, continuing to speak with Hanum's deep eyes staring at Dika's eyes.
Instantly Hanum hugged the body of the man beside her tightly and the patters of tears that drenched her cheeks and shoulders of the man.
"Cry dik, release the burden that is in the heart to decrease and lose the burden that binds you all this time!, whisper softly in Hanum's ear."
Dika gently stroked the head of hanum that rested on her shoulder. Dika's touch like there was energy flowing in Hanum's body gave strength and spirit for him to rise from his slump.
"Still remember that guava tree you climbed?, asked Dika."
Hanum recalled those memories and smiled reminiscing about those times. It turns out that Dika's brother still remembers the event and with details of the incident in his childhood
"The "sweet, funny face you showed when you said you couldn't get off that tree. Actually at that time my sister was also afraid to climb up the tree to help you just because she saw your face there was courage for it" said Dika with a laugh.
"What!!.. So at that time you were also afraid of heights?, Hanum asked."
They both laughed in remembrance of that childhood.
"Stay smiling and cheerful like this my sister," said Dika.
