SKY PATHS

Arakan?

Manda opened her eyes slowly. The first thing he saw was Nanda who faithfully clasped his hand tightly.

"How do you feel, miss?" Ask doctor Mira

"Much calmer, it must still feel dizzy and,,, sick" replied Manda softly

"It's okay, miss, it's good enough, we're going through all this slowly" Mira said

"Good doctor" said Manda

"Miss don't be discouraged yes, miss must be strong for the baby miss" said doctor Mira

"Definitely doctor, thank you" said Manda

After finishing therapy, Nanda invited Manda to lunch. The therapy runs for about 3 hours but it feels very long for Manda. Drawn into his subconscious and forced to come to terms with his trauma.

"Nan" call Manda

"Hmm" Nanda turned a glance and refocused on driving

"I guess I can heal, right?" Ask Manda

"Yes, it's only a matter of time" replied Nanda

"But I'm afraid I can't recover" said Manda

"Why do you think that?" Ask Nanda

"I'm not healing" replied Manda

"It's also been therapeutic once" Nanda said

"It's the same Nan, not bad" said Manda

"Everything needs a process, there is no instant in this world Nda" said Manda

"Yes, I know, too, but, uh,,,,"

"Udah do not need to think strangely, you can be cured really, you have to keep thinking positive in order to maintain your content" said Nanda cut Manda's speech

Manda could not answer anymore, he knew that Nanda did not want anything to happen to him or to his womb as he continued to think about things that were not necessarily happening.

As scheduled, Manda did therapy once every 1 week because given the condition of Manda who was pregnant, did not want to take the risk to pressure Manda to make peace with her trauma because it could have an effect on her fetus. Although long, but Manda lived it casually, especially when Nanda always accompanied him and Amee always supported him after Amee knew what his best friend was going through.

Today, Manda went to the obstetrician to check the content that has entered 4 months.

"The baby is healthy, not deformed and not lacking anything" said the doctor who examined her

"If you can tell, what's the gender, Doc?" Ask Nanda

"The gender is still unknown, it looks like the baby wants to play secrets" said the doctor who ended the abuse

"Whatever gender is important healthy" said Manda who responded to the nod agreed by Nanda

"The baby has begun to be active, ma'am, can be spoken to" said the doctor

Manda stared at her baby from the monitor. Manda still does not believe that she can get pregnant at this young age. Moreover, the biological father of the baby that he did not know, there was pain in his heart when he remembered that fact.

Upon returning from the hospital, again and again heavy rain fell which resulted in Manda being frightened. Nanda took Manda sitting on her lap, asking Manda to hold her tightly.

"Gue was afraid of Nan" said Manda, who hid her face in Nanda's field

"There I am" said Nanda with one hand stroking Manda's back and the other busy driving

"When this trauma is gone Nan, I can't keep going" said Manda, who struggled to hold back her sobs

"Prophe Nda, I'm sure you will recover as soon as possible" said Nanda always calm him

"Gue was afraid" said Manda increasingly tightened his embrace

Seeing Manda's alarming condition, Nanda took the initiative to turn on the radio music at full volume so that Manda could no longer hear the sound of heavy rain. And the way it worked, Manda's body no longer trembled and over time Manda fell asleep on Nanda's lap.

The next day, the campus is horrendous with the arrival of an inhumanely handsome young CEO.

"I heard he was still in college in the 2nd semester, it's just that he was a genius and that's what led his father to believe him to be CEO" said one of the students

"Well cool, I want to be his girlfriend, oh no, I want to be his wife" another said

"Oh my god, so handsome" (yes my god, so handsome)

"Future husband" (prospective husband)

"Very handsome" (very handsome)

"I Love you" (i love you)

That's how women scream when they see the handsome face of the CEO.

"Look at them, like never seeing a handsome person" Amee said

"What do you think, he's not handsome?" Ask Manda

"I admit that he is very handsome, but our god is different, and I'm right, if he's not the only good-looking person here" Amee replied

"What is his religion?" Ask Manda

"Oh my goodness, look at the necklace" replied Amee

"Oh cross" muttered Manda

"Why? You likey?" Ask Amee

"Yes I like it" replied Manda Santai

"Really?" Amee asked in surprise at the answer Manda gave

"Like, not love" said Manda who emphasized the words like and love

"Oh I thought you loved her too" said Amee

"Isn't that forbidden?" Ask Manda innocently

"God does not forbid us to like someone who is different from the Mandaic religion, God only forbids us not to go out of his religion just for love" replied Amee Yang replied with a nod of innocence by Manda

"Oh so, sorry, my religion is still minimal" said Manda

"It's okay, you can learn more" said Amee

Manda nodded. Shortly thereafter an announcement was made that required all students and female students to gather in the hall. Manda and Amee immediately headed for the campus hall.

Within hall

"I heard the CEO wants to talk about the festival next week"

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes"

Such was the speech of the female student Manda heard upon reaching the hall. A moment later, everyone fell silent as the head of the campus and the CEO walked into the hall.

"Good afternoon everyone" said Mr. Kevin while the head of the campus as well as lecturer

"Prince sir" answered them all

"Today we have a special guest, please sir" said Mr. Kevin invited the CEO forward

"All of you, please introduce my name is Arkan Alaxarryyan Pratama, CEO of the company Alaxarryyan's group. My goal is to come here because I want to say that next week there will be a taunan festival in our city, I hope you all can participate in this festival, maybe someone wants to ask?" said Arkan

"Sorry sir, what's the theme?" Ask Amee

"The theme is free, you decide" Arkan replied

"What about pregnant girls?" Ask one of the students who happens to be pregnant as well

"For that I can understand it and not force it" Arkan replied

"Mr Arkan, are you single?" Ask one of the students

"I don't want to answer anything personal, if no one is asked again, I'm sorry" Arkan said and left the hall

When he wanted to leave the campus, suddenly heavy rain that resulted in Arkan had to wait in the campus. While Manda, he felt an excruciating pain in his head. Manda continues to stagger in search of Nanda or anyone to call for help, but nil. When he was about to climb the stairs, Manda could not hold his weight until he almost toppled backwards if only no one held him back.

"Mama,, papa, sick" said Manda with her eyes closed

"Are you okay, miss?" Ask the person who helped Manda use Indonesian because Manda also spoke that language

"T-please" said Manda

"I will take you to the UKK (Campus Health Unit) room, hang on" said the person

Carrying Manda ala-ala bridal style and bringing it to UKK. Who can tell who Manda is?
