THE BEST BROTHERS

Chapter 119

“”In the end we are completely alienated, you leave with your annoyance, I turn with all my regrets

The letter from Vino made Shita shed her tears again. Again and again Shita remembers her good times with her husband. But that beautiful memory will erode when it comes to her memory of Vino hurting her.

"Shita, you can hate me for the rest of your life, may Shita, I don't forbid you, because I deserve to be hated by you. But let me stay by your side, even if you hate me so much."the beheading of Vino's letter to Shita.

"Sister, I don't hate you, but this heart hurts when it remembers all that. Please give me time, brother, until this child is born. If indeed you are still my soul mate, we will be together forever to raise our child together." Shita muttered in her heart.

The cupcake from her husband had been eaten, probably because Shita was hungry and the baby in Shita's stomach wanted it, or because it was all her husband's gift.

Shita parsed her smile when she saw the notification of the incoming WhatsApp message, and said Vino's name. He immediately opened his message, he read with a smile. It was as if his joy had returned.

[Had eaten his cupcake?]

So was the message from Vino. Shita immediately replied to a message from Vino.

[Oh, thank you. Next time you send it yourself if it's healed.]

He replies to Vink's message like that.

[That's sure. Happy working again. Always healthy for you and my son.]

Reply Vino.

[Yes, thanks again]

Shita replies and thanks Vino.

He thought about why he could be so happy when he got the attention of Vino. But, he did not deny also about the heartache made by Vino.

"It's nice to remember those sweet memories, and they'll dim for a moment when I remember you hurting me."

Shita again finished his work, no matter what Shita felt, today he seemed to get the spirit intake again to work.

At night at Arsyad's house, Shita is helping Mira's Household Assistant prepare dinner. Almira from earlier was busy taking care of Najwa who was a bit fussy today because he had finished immunization.

Arsyad came out of his room and approached his sister who was busy arranging dinner.

"Ta, are you cooking?"ask Arsyad.

"I'm just helping my aunt." she said.

"You look fresher than you did yesterday" Arsyad said.

"Silver I could be like this every day, sister." said Shita. She was indeed a little happy, from this afternoon Vino sent Chat to Shita every hour.

"It's all because of Vino, right? Don't make the problem your burden. I'm sure Vino loves you very much, remember Brother's message, don't attach importance to your own ego. You have to be able to tell the difference when you are with Vino and when you are away from Vino. There is a difference in taste or not." said Arsyad.

"Entah brother. Don't talk about that. Come eat, where's Brother Mira?"ask Shita.

"By the sleep of Najwa. He was fussy when he finished immunization last afternoon." said Arsyad.

Almira comes out to the dining table after she puts Najwa to sleep. He sat down next to Arsyad and took some rice for Arsyad.

"Najwa is asleep?"ask Arsyad.

"Already, mas. The body is quite warm, maybe because it was out of immunization." said Mira

"Well, maybe you ate first. Najwa must be okay." said Arsyad

"Ta, Brother Mira, look at you today is very fresh." said Mira.

"Well, brother?"ask Shita.

"Yes, isn't it, mas?"ask Mira to Arsyad.

"Yes, it's going to meet the people he loves, but he prestige, because covered by his disappointment." said Arsyad.

"Do not like that, if you still need each other what is wrong with forgiving and forgetting all the things in your relationship. It's good, you're talking to Vino. With a cold head, and certainly not concerned with his own ego. Try to accept each other's reasons, and remember, do not be rash to make decisions based on anger." said Mira to Sh weita.

"Yes, brother, later Shita will invite Kak Vino to talk carefully." he said.

A month has passed, Shita is getting closer to Vino, even though only through a chat. They did not meet and make video calls. Just through chat they greet each other. Shita has returned to her papa's house. He always showed himself well in front of his parents. He was still hiding everything he was going through at the moment. Yes, the problem rashes the ladder with Vino. Andini and Rico are never suspicious of Shita's attitude. Maybe because Shita has little acceptance of the reality that happened to her household, and Shita with Vino has been communicating again even though it is limited to chatting only.

Rico was shocked because Vino had sent a chat to him early in the morning. He asked to meet Papah Rico somewhere, he gave the address to Papah Rico, and Vino asked his father-in-law to keep the meeting today a secret from Shita. He also invited Arsyad to accompany Papah Rico when he met him later. Rico is confused by his son-in-law. Shita says she's out of town until next month, but now asks her to meet somewhere.

"Is there anything Vino is hiding? So he invited me to meet him today with Arsyad, and couldn't tell Shita that he would meet me today? Ahh..maybe he will surprise Shita, for forbidding me to tell Shita about this meeting." Rico muttered in his heart.

There was no sense of awkwardness in Rico's heart, she behaved as usual, because indeed she did not know that Shita had a pretty weird problem with her husband.

Shita arranges breakfast at the dinner table, Rico approaches her daughter and kisses her.

"The baby is pregnant very beautiful. When's your husband coming home?"ask Rico

"Maybe next week, reward" he said casually, like no problem.

"Oh...You don't miss him?"ask Rico to Shita. Shita stopped chewing her food.

"Kangen is the reward, time is not." he said with a smile.

"Yes, what the hell, pah. In the same old stay husband yes kangen is pah."ujar Andini.

"What the hell is that?"said Shita.

Shita let out a long sigh, she was afraid that her papa was beginning to suspect the trouble that had befallen her.

"I'm sorry Shita, reward. Shita's hiding all this. Shita has forgiven Kak Vino, but this heart still hurts, can't forget the incident, pah. Forgive Shita." muttered Shita in heart. Rico saw the look on his son's slightly changed face.

"Shita, is there something you're hiding from Papah?"ask Rico.

Shita paused for a moment and sighed.

"Hmmmhh.. No reward, Shita does not hide anything." he said.

"Yes already, if not, papah to the office first yes, you want to go to the cafe right? Let's go with papah alone."rajak Rico.

"Yes pah." Shita takes her bag and leaves for the cafe accompanied by her papa.

While Vino at home prepared all the documents and certificates that have been on top of the name of his wife who will be handed over to his father-in-law.

"I know Shita, you're still disappointed in me. And, in the end we were completely estranged, you left with your annoyance, I turned around with all my regrets. I don't know what else to do, this is all for you, I just love you, until the end of my life" Vino muttered in his heart.

Vino opens his phone, looking at a photo of Shita with him. He looked at the picture of his wife, Vino sending a message to Shita.

[For Shita, my beautiful wife who I miss so much, I miss your smile, your joking laughter, and the warm longing of your embrace. But, I know, you still don't want to see me. It's okay, Shita, I understand how you feel, you're still very disappointed in me. May you be well today, take care of your health always, and take care of our children when I cannot take care of them. One thing you should know, I love you until the end of my life. Love you Arshita.]

So was the message from Vino.

Shita just got to the cafe. Papah Rico immediately sends his car to the office to meet with Arsyad and invite him to meet Vino.

Rico arrived at his office and immediately met Arsyad in his room, Arsyad who at that time was being preoccupied by his work, he was so shocked to see his papa entering without knocking on the door and in a hurry.

"Well, what's the reward? It looks so nervous?"ask Arsyad.

"Let's go see Vino" Rico said without further ado to his eldest son.

"Walking Vino? Why did Papah suddenly invite Arsyad to meet Vino?"ask Arsyad.

"Don't Shita tell me about the problem with Vino to Papah?"arshad asked in his heart.

"Syad, why silence?"ask Rico.

"Ah..it's okay reward" he replied.

"Let's go with papah, Vino this morning sent a message to papah, he wanted to meet papah at this address. Do you know the address of this house?"ask Rico

"Arsyad never knew the address of this house reward." said Arsyad.

"Is it possible that this is the home address given to Lesy, the woman who made my sister like that" Arsyad said.

"Yes, let's go there" said Arsyad.

Rico and Arsyad set out to meet Vino at Vino's money address. Arsyad left his job to Arsyil and Rayhan.

"Sister, do you know about Shita's problem? How come you suddenly want to see Brother Vino?"ask Arsyil. When Rico came out of Arsyil's room.

"It doesn't seem." replied Arsyad.

"Then why would Papah want to see Kak Vino?"ask Arsyil again

"So I don't know, papah just said, if this morning Vino sent a message to papah, he asked papah and I met him at the address of the house that was sent to papah." said Arsyad.

"Oh...I think you know, what is the address of the woman's house, sis?"ask Arsyil again.

"You don't know, Syil. Yes, my brother left, afraid papah suspected we had a long conversation. The office titip.

"Yes, be careful" he said.

Rico and Arsyad immediately leave for the home address given by Vino. Arsyad drove his car at a moderate speed. Arsyad from earlier wondered to his heart, why Vino wanted to meet him and also papah Rico.

"Is there anything Vino wants to see me and Papah?"ask Arshad in my heart.

While Rico from earlier was busy looking at google map to find the address that Vino gave.

Shita is very busy today, the cafe's financial statements and other reports are piled on Shita's desk. Until noon he forgot to open his phone.

"Huh... tired, my work is a lot today, not to mention the report from the cafe branch. My head hurts so much looking at this document. Ah.. I better make hot chocolate." muttered Shita in heart.

Shita comes out of her room to the kitchen, she'll make hot chocolate for herself to. He took the cup from the cup shelf in the kitchen of his cafe.

"Praaang.." The cup that Shita was holding suddenly slipped out of her hand. Shita held it well.

"Awww...why did it come off?"shita said as she picked up the scattered pieces of the cup.

"Awwww..pain." Shita's finger was stuck in the cup.

"Mba Shita is okay?"ask Shita's Employees.

"No, Heru, please clean this up, and make me some hot chocolate, I'll wait in my room." Shita told Heru, the cafe employee.

"Yes mba, good." he said. Heru immediately cleaned the flakes of the cup and after that he made hot chocolate for Shita.

Shita went back into her room. His heart was not calm, his chest felt tight. And, Vino's shadow suddenly recalled in Shita's memory. When they were together, when they first met, and when Vino first came home, they went home to school with Arsyad.

Shita opens her desk drawer, she takes photos of the future once with Arsyad, Arsyil, Rayhan and of course Vino. Photos of her Junior High School and Vino High School. He kept looking at the photo and rubbed the photo in the picture of Vino.

"Sister Vino, you're the man I wanted to be, I'm so happy to know you, you always teach me math PR that I can't at all, you often bring me chocolates. And now, I'm your woman, I'm happy, very happy. But, my happiness is gone, because the woman is a sister. Brother, I still love you so much, but sorry, this heart still hurts so deep." said Shita, staring at Vino in the photo.

Shita remembered her phone, so busy she ignored her phone from the morning.

"My phone, I haven't seen it before. Usually early in the morning Kak Vino always sends a chat for me." he muttered in his heart.

Shita picks up her phone in the bag, she sees a WhatsApp notification of who else she missed. Yes, Vino. He saw the chat from Vino. He elaborated a smile on his lips, looking at the chat from Vino. He read it, not feeling his tears dripping down his cheeks. Vino's words were as if the words wanted to leave Shita long ago. Shita replies to a message from Vino.

[Siang Kak Vino, I'm here fine, your son is also healthy always in my womb. Brother, forgive Shita who is too selfish. Shita loves big sister so much, Shita has forgiven big sister. Yes indeed, Shita has not yet come to see her sister. Let this time bring brother and I together. I missed you too, brother. Missed everything that was in my sister. Love you too.]

Reply chat from Shita to Vino.

Shita puts down her phone again, she waits for a reply from Vino again, but she hasn't replied to him yet.

Arshad and his papa have arrived at their destination. Vino arrived first. Vino lets Arsyad and Rico inside.

"Well, papah is healthy?"ask Vino.

"As you can see. You're so pale, Vin. You sick? Said you were out of town?"ask Rico.

"This is your house?"ask Arsyad.

"Yes, this is my dream home" replied Vino.

"Is this Vino and Shita's dream house?"arsyad murmured in the heart.

"Well, Vino meant to invite papah here, Vino wanted to talk something to Papah and Arsyad" he said.

"What do you want to talk about?"ask Rico.

Vino immediately prostrated himself at Rico's feet, he was crying so much, he was so sorry for what he did.

"I'm sorry Vino, reward. Forgive Vino. Vino betrays Shita. Forgive Vino, can't take care of Shita." Vino was still crying with a prostration at Rico's feet.

"you mean? What do you mean betray Shita, Vin. Explain to papah." said Rico firmly..

Vini sat next to her father-in-law, she explained everything that had happened between her and Shita. Rico was so disappointed with his son-in-law. He was very disappointed.

"Father didn't expect you to be like that, you treated my beloved daughter like that. Aren't you thinking about how Shita felt back then, huh.!? Where is your heart Vino." Rico was very disappointed with his son-in-law.

"I'm sorry Vino, reward. Vino does it all for a reason. Vino hasn't explained all this in detail to Shita pah. Vino only helped Lesy at that time, he was betrothed to the bookies by his stepfather. And he must want to, his mother also forced him. At that time, we accidentally met while gathering with business relations. And when he was going home to Paris, he was pursued by his stepfather and his men. He asked Vino for help. Then, Vino hired him at the branch office. She's a clever woman, the branch office is becoming more and more advanced in her grasp. And, as a reward, I bought him a house. This is indeed Vino's fault, pah. Vino is wrong, because every day he meets Lesy, Vino admires him. And Lesy, she also used to love Vino. Vino mischarges, Vino responds to that with Vino's actions, without expressing love to Him, because the woman he loves is Shita, papah's daughter. She's the only woman I love. Why Vino wanted to marry her, it was all because she threatened to commit suicide, Vino finally agreed to marry her as a second wife. He didn't get to marry her yet, he realized what he was doing, and he decided to go back to Paris." Vino explained to his in-laws without any cover-up.

Rico sighed violently. He did not believe in Vino, until his heart did all that to his wife. Rico just kept silent not talking. Vino was wrong, but he also knew Vino's position.

"Father, Arsyad, I'll take Shita. I know he hates me, hates me. But I still love her so much, love Shita so much. Pah, I'm sorry Vino." said Vino.

Rico was still silent, he stared disappointedly at Vino.

"Bah please give all this to Shita. Shita wants to separate from Vino when Vino's child is born." Vino gave the map to Rico. Rico opened it, he was surprised to see what was inside the map.

"Is this a home and company certificate?"ask Rico.

"Yes reward, all that for Shita and my son later. Vino tipped this on papah, please papah later give it to Shita when it's time." said Vino.

"Yes, papah will give." he replied in a flat tone.

"Vin, why are you giving up all this so soon?"arsyad murmured in the heart.

"Vin, papah came home. Papah will talk to Shita so as not to be rash in making a decision. Let's go home Syad."rajak Rico.

Rico and Arsyad are coming home from Vino's house. Rico asks Arsyad to take him to Shita's cafe to talk everything out to his daughter.

"We go to Shita's cafe, Syad."ink Rico.

"Yes, reward."he replied.

Rico from earlier was just speechless, he felt very devastated to hear the confession of his son-in-law. But, how else, he also loved Vino like his own son.

"We stopped by a restaurant near here, Syad. We have lunch first." said Rico.

"Yes, pah." Arshad obeyed what his papa wanted, he knew his papa was holding back his anger.

Arsyad had arrived at the restaurant, he parked his car and after that he went straight into the restaurant and ordered food.

Shita at the cafe was silent looking at her phone which from earlier there was no WhatsApp notification from Vino. He was very much waiting for a reply from Vino, but not yet in reply as well.

Vino smiled at Shita's reply, he was so happy, his wife still loved him so much. He immediately replied to a message from his wife.

[Thank you, baby. I'll come to your cafe, wait for me. Love you.]

[I'll be waiting for you, brother. Be careful.]

Vino rushes to get the keys to his car, a pain that yesterday until now he felt lost instantly, when Shita again said the word love for him. He was very happy, and he did his car to Shita's cafe quickly.

He did not realize in front of him there was a sharp bend, visible from the opposite direction a box truck passed at high speed as well.

"Brakkkk…..!!!!!" the sound of both vehicles in the accident was heard. Vino's car slammed away and ripped. Blood poured out of Vino's car. Vino's body was pinned to his car.

The road was blocked immediately, an ambulance took the victim to the hospital. Vino cars and box trucks were secured by the lakalantas unit.

Arsyad drove his car from the restaurant to his office, the streets were jammed, the space was cramped.

"There was an accident." said Arsyad.

"Yes, apparently. Syad, that's see." Rico pointed towards the car that was rattled.

"Bah, that...that's.not a car.." said Arsyad stammered.

"That's Vino's car, Syad. Pull your car, we're out." said Rico.

Arsyad pulled the car over, then dropped Rico's plan towards the police who were still taking care of Vino's car.

"Good day sir, this is my son-in-law's car, where he is now" Rico said.

"Good day, the victims have all been rushed to the hospital, sir.

"Is my son-in-law okay?"ask Rico

"The victims were both heavily injured, they were bleeding" the police said.

"Oh yes sir, is this the car owner's phone?"ask the police

"Yes this is Vino's phone." Arsyad said. Arsyad asked the police for permission to give his cell phone to Arsyad. The police gave it to him, and unfortunately Vino's phone was broken. Then he gave it to the police again.

Arsyad and Rico immediately went to the hospital that was notified by the police. Arsyad saw a lot of Vino's blood on the asphalt.

"Oh Allah, may nothing happen to Vino" muttered Arsyad

"Vin, hang on, son. To my daughter and to your son." murmured Rico.

Shita is still waiting for Vino, she tries to call Vino's phone, but is not Active.

"Praaaang.."pas photo on Shita's desk fell. Yes, it was a photo of Vino and himself.

"Sister Vino.." said Shita with a quivering heart and a hoarse voice.

I hope nothing happens with Vino. If at all I can't forgive myself.

Arsyad and Rico arrive at the hospital, he heads straight to the ER and asks the accident patient who just came in.

"Sus, the accident patient was how was he?"ask Rico.

"One is still critical in the ICU, and the other is dead" the nurse replied

"What's in the ICU a car driver or trucker?"ask Arsyad.

"The one in the ICU on behalf of Vino, he's a motorist." he said.

"Are you the patient's family?"ask the doctor who just treated Vino.

"Yes we're his family." replied Arsyad and Rico.

"The patient is bleeding, and needs a lot of blood. Does any of you fit in?"ask the doctor.

"I fit in, doc. Take my blood." said Arsyad.

"Let's come with me sir."so the nurse.

Rico's body squeezed instantly, he sat in the waiting chair and held his head.

"Vino, hang on, kid. Papah please. Poor Shita." said Rico shirih.

Rico calls Arsyil and Rayhan to get to the hospital, and tells Arsyil to go to Shita's cafe so she can go to the hospital.

Arsyil is surprised to hear everything Rico says, he immediately approaches Rayhan in his room and takes him to the hospital, before going to the hospital, he picks up Shita first in his cafe.

Shita who was still waiting for Vino, he was shocked by the presence of Arsyil who suddenly entered his room

"Syil, you just surprised me." she said.

"Sorry, can you come with me for a minute?"ask Arsyil

"Where?"ask Shita.

"So my sister will know" he replied

"But I was waiting for Vino to come, he promised to come here" Shita said.

"What time?"ask Arsyil.

"Yes, this is Kak Vino's chat." Shita shows her chat with Vino. Arsyil's eyes glazed over at him. When they will unite again, but disaster comes to him.

"Oh my God, Brother. When you will be united again, God tests you with this." - Arshil.

"Sir Vino will follow. We'll go first." Arsyil forced his brother to follow him.

Shita follows what Arsyil did, she is a little suspicious of Ray and Arsyil. He was getting suspicious about taking her to the hospital.

"Cock to the hospital, Syil. Who's sick?"ask Shita. Arsyil was silent.

"Ray, who's in the hospital?"ask Ray again.

"Let's go in, Ta." said Ray.

"This is what's going on, Ray, Arsyil? Why is Arsyad's car here?"who's in the hospital?"ask Shita loudly

"Let's go inside" Arsyil said.

"Syil, don't tell Vino who's in the hospital." she said.

"Let's go in." Arsyil memapah Shita, he occasionally wiped the tears that had come out in the corner of his eyes. And so did Rayhan. They walked to the ICU. Shita looks at Rico and Arsyad with a tangled face full of anxiety.

"Father, Brother Arsyad, who's sick?"shita asked by sitting next to her papa and crying.

"Sorry, Mr. Vino needs a lot of blood again, the patient is still critical" said the doctor who suddenly came out of the ICU room. Shita cries hysterically hearing Vino's name in the ICU room

"Sir, explain to Shita, why Vino, pah? Why Vino." Shita punched him in the chest and ran into the ICU but doctors and nurses forbade him, because he could not be seen yet.

"Sorry Mom, my mother's husband is still in our care, and can't be seen yet. Be patient, ma'am." said the nurse

"I'm his wife, I deserve to know how he is. Let me in, doc, please." said Shita.

"Please mother come in, please be accompanied by another." The doctor finally allowed Shita to enter with Arsyad.

"Sister, my husband brother. Why is it like this. Brother Vino, wake up, why is this sister, Kak Vino promised to see Shita, but why brother, why is it like this. Let's get up, it's Shita next to sister. He said he missed Shita, brother, get up." Shita sobbed in Arsyad's arms.

"Let's go out first, calm your heart, Vino has to be handled again." Arsyad takes Shita out of the room. Shita was still crying, she deeply regretted what she did to Vino. Expelling her, hating her, abusing her, even divorcing Vino.

"Oh my God, forgive me, save my husband. I love her so much." said Shita.

Shita was still sitting and being embraced by her papa. Arsyil and Rayhan are donating blood to Vino. Yes, they have the same blood as Vino.
