Sincere Love Former Office Girl
Visitation



The weather this afternoon was not so hot as Arion and Sekar arrived at the burial place of Arion's parents. Sekar did ask Arion to accompany him there, before he returned to his hometown.


He knew from Bu Ida and Dini, that Arion's visit to the graves of his parents could only be counted by the fingers. Although he understood this, Sekar still could not let the man continue to feel traumatized by their death. Moreover, his own personal doctor asked Arion to start making peace with all circumstances, because that is one of the triggers that aggravate his health condition.


Sekar placed a bouquet of Lily flowers on the graves of Arion's parents. He sat on a small chair made of marble, and began to pray. Arion did the same with Sekar.


In his prayer, the man realized that he had rarely prostrated himself on the prayer mat. The success he achieved, the kindness of those around him, to the presence of Sekar in the man's life, was nothing but an intervention for the good of the Creator.


Although sometimes there are bitter things that come to his life, it is nothing more than a small test among the magnitude of the good he has received so far.


Arion wept in every strand of do'a that he offered to the Khalik. The man promised that from now on he would learn to carry out his duties as a Muslim.


The man gasped when both of Sekar's delicate hands suddenly rubbed gently the tears flowing down his cheeks. The sincere smile on the beautiful face of the girl, giving her own coolness to Arion.


He took Sekar's hand and lightly kissed it. The man then introduced Sekar to his late parents.


"This is the girl I love. I hope you like him as much as I do" Arion said, adding a smile.


I feel overwhelmed and awkward. Then he introduced himself. They then talked a little about the daily life of Arion, and how the company developed under his leadership.


"You don't have to worry about me there. I'll always be fine" Arion said as they headed home.


Arion gently rubbed the gravestones of his parents before leaving from there. So too with Sekar. They then joined hands to get to the car.


"I want you to stay here" Arion asked suddenly, as the two were already in the car.


"You mean?" ask Sekar who does not understand the direction of Arion's conversation.


"I told you, didn't I, if my goal was to catch you back here? When you said that your place was there, but why did you even agree to Mas Bayu's invitation to come to Melbourne?" Arion looked at Sekar deeply. His originally soft tone, now sounded very upset in the ears of Sekar.


"I thought, we've talked about this before. I joined Mas Bayu because he was the only closest family I had." Sekar tries to give a little understanding to Arion.


"While, Mas? I don't think of you as someone else, do I! You should understand what I mean, right? I can't live with someone who's not my family" he said quickly.


Arion breathed in riled. The man is heartbroken. He even blatantly showed his angry look at Sekar.


Even so, on the other hand Arion felt very gruggish. That girl is really insensitive or what, anyway? Yes, he invited Sekar to live together without any ties!


"Your cousin's brother won't be here" Arion said later.


"Sok knows! Mas Bayu called me, and said that he would take the flight tomorrow afternoon." A moment smirked, as if mocking Arion's ignorance.


"No will! He canceled the flight!" exclaim Arion firmly.


Sekar frowned deeply. "Huh?"


Now the container was wide open, as soon as he heard the words of the man next to him.


"MAS!" the girl's roar was heard until she got out of the car.


...***...


"Sorry, Ma'am, Ms. Erlina is not willing to accept guests" one of the female guards told Adhisty.


Adhisty nodded in understanding. He left the rutan where Erlina languished, without leaving a message or anything for her mother.


Adhisty had no regrets at all, though now he had to be hated by his own birth mother. The woman seemed to have found calm, which she had never obtained.


"Healthy, Ma. I may not see you for a long time" Adhisty muttered as he continued to walk away.


Armed with the rest of the money he has, Adhisty intends to spend the rest of his life in a place far from there. For him, Jakarta has too many bad memories, and he does not want to start his new life in the city


...***...


"Mbak Sekar why, Mas?" ask Dini when she found the look on Sekar's face that seemed to be angry. The girl immediately stepped away towards the kitchen, after greeting Dini briefly.


"Religion." Reply Arion smiled.


"That's fine, anyway!" exclamation Dini giggling.


Arion slicked his shoulder. "Where, Mother?" ask the man.


"Newly want otw," replied Dini.


While in the kitchen, Madam Ida met Sekar and invited the girl to go shopping for groceries. The middle-aged woman quipped, if there are some food ingredients that have run out.


Without a second thought Sekar accepted Ida's invitation. Instead of having to be at home all day with Arion, he better go with his mother.


"Where are you going, Mom?" asked Arion who was sitting casually in the living room while watching television. His eyes glanced at Sekar who was standing next to the mother. The girl was completely reluctant to look at Arion.


"Mom and Sekar want to shop for groceries first, huh?"


Arion nodded his head. "Be careful,"


Sekar did not respond to Arion at all. The girl just walked over without saying, anything.


The two went with Lucas.
