THE BEST BROTHERS

S4 Chapter 82 "Cooling Heart" The Best Brother

Fattah and others have been in Budapest for five days. Today they will all return to Indonesia. Shifa from this morning seduced Najwa to come home, but Najwa did not want to come home yet. He said there was still a lot of work to be done. In fact, he only wanted to dodge Dio. Every time Dio saw only the shadow of his sin clearly visible before his eyes.

“Kak, come on come home, pity abah, I really want Kak Najwa to come home,” pinta Shifa.

“Fa, I still have a lot of work here. Next month Habibi and I will be home. I promise,” replied Najwa.

“Still a long time dong, sis,” sahut Arkan who is near Najwa.

“Next month will stay 2 weeks, Arkan,” said Najwa.

“Already, don't force Sister Najwa, she's still a lot of work. Najwa will be home soon. Aren't you, Brother?” raffi continues by embracing Najwa.

“Yes, Sister Najwa must be home,” replied Najwa.

“Definitely married Habibi too, right?” ledek Shifa's.

“That's a sure thing, Shifa,” Najwa replied firmly.

“Yakin?” Raffi reassured his brother.

“Yakin, lah. Marriage is no joke, Raffi,” replied Najwa.

“Do you really love Habibi and want to accept Habibi?” ask Shifa.

“Iya, I love her,” replied Najwa.

“Really?” Shifa convinced Najwa.

“True! The time I lied,” replied Najwa with a slightly pressing and firm tone.

“I guess you haven't forgotten about Dio,” Shifa said.

“Why did you say that?” ask Najwa.

“Because I see, whenever there is Dio, and he joins, surely you dodge,” replied Shifa.

“Who is dodging?” najwa said casually but with a face like a nervous person.

“You are, who else. Aye, right? You still have a little taste for Dio?” ask Shifa again.

“That's you, there's-there's just. If I still feel the same way as Dio, I can't love Habibi. And, I did not want to, when Habibi invited me to marry,” Najwa replied.

“What do you talk about? Najwa already does not love Dio,” said Raffi

“Iya, right said Raffi,” added Najwa.

Shifa was silent, Shifa knew that Najwa still had a taste for Dio. Maybe not love, but rather regret, and not good with Rania. But, for Shifa it was the same. Because by still storing the taste, it means that Najwa has not forgotten Dio completely. And that will affect Najwa's life in the future.

Raffi and Arkan go to his room to arrange his luggage. As for Shifa, she was still in Najwa's room. He was still trying to find out what Najwa's heart was like with his twin.

“Fa, see this shirt and hijab is good for you.” Najwa shows Shifa her clothes and hijab. The clothes he made himself when the peretama joined work at the Nuri boutique.

“Iya, good,” replied Shifa.

“Make you, I did deliberately make like this two, one for me and one for you,” said Najwa.

“Iya, I take it home, later. Now, I'd like to ask you again, sis.” Shifa still wants Najwa to tell her how she feels about Dio.

“Ask what else anyway, Fa?” asked Najwa with a little emphasis.

“You still love Dio?” ask Shifa.

“Fa, never mind, how many times do I have to explain, this feeling is no longer there for Dio. For what I still love people's husbands, while Habibi, is much more perfect than Dio,” Najwa replied with great emphasis and decisiveness.

“But, I saw you yesterday..”.

“Why? Why me yesterday? Avoiding Dio? Don't want to join you when you have Dio? Like that?” najwa said with a little annoyance.

He always avoided Dio. It was all because he was unwilling to deal with the regret in his heart. He did not want to feel any pain when he remembered the sin he had committed with Dio. Moreover, until he gives some of his body to be enjoyed by Dio when he is entangled in a wrong love with Dio.

Najwa is not ready if you have to face Dio for a long time. The shadows with Dio used to be more visible in the lens of his eye and the pain was more pronounced in his heart.

“I know what you feel like, Brother,” Shifa said.

“If you know, yes already, why ask again, Shifa,” said Najwa.

“Fa, forgetting someone who has ever stopped at this heart is very difficult. Must go through several stages. Especially if you forget without being accompanied by someone again, it will definitely not be able to. I who was accompanied by Habibi alone still could not forget completely. It's not that I can't forget about my love for Dio, it's more about my sins and regrets, which I still haven't forgotten. Although there is a Habibi by my side. She always gives warmth to my heart, until I am comfortable, and I feel sincere love from her.” Najwa tries to be honest with how he feels about Shifa.

“Then, do you love Habibi?” ask Shifa.

“Yes, I love her, love her so much. Once again I say, my love for Dio is no longer in my heart. There is only regret and sin left that I feel every day. That's what keeps me from Dio. If I go home with you now, I'm not ready. I really have to be ready to go home, if I'm not ready, it's the same as torturing my own mind. That's Habibi. So, I choose I will not go home before my heart is ready,” Najwa replied.

“OK, I don't care if you don't want to go home yet. But, brother, you should know what your daily life is like if you miss you, Najwa,” said Shifa.

“I'm definitely home to see abah. Because I will also marry Habibi in the near future,” replied Najwa.

Najwa and Shifa are still telling stories. Shifa indeed from yesterday could not long tell with Najwa. Najwa was always busy, and when he was gathered, when Dio joined as well, Najwa immediately reasoned to avoid Dio.

^^^

Dio overhears the conversation of Najwa and Shifa. He felt the most sinful man when he listened to Najwa's words. Najwa, who was always surrounded by regret for his sins, made Dio's heart hurt. Moreover, he had already gained happiness with Rania. As for Najwa, he wanted to love Habibi but his heart still felt pain because of the regrets and sins that Najwa had committed with him.

“Yes, I'm aware. Najwa is suffering because of me. I ruined her as a woman. I enjoyed what I should not have enjoyed in Najwa. And, maybe that's what made Najwa sorry. Until now the regret still haunts him, even though there is Habibi who loves him very much, and of course Najwa also loves him,” muttered Dio by rubbing his face rough.

Dio felt more and more that he had destroyed everything. He especially gave Najwa life. Although Rania was heartbroken at that time, but now she has relieved the sense of lara in Rania's heart. Although there is a man who fills Najwa's heart at this time, Najwa's heart cannot be healed.

“True Rania said. Najwa can love other men, but his heart is still very hurt because of what I used to do,” said Dio.

Rania looked at her husband who had been restless in the room. She approached her husband and sat down next to him. Rania clasped her husband's hand and kissed him.

“Why do you look restless, honey?” ask Rania.

Dio just kept quiet and looked at his wife's face. She hugged Rania and kissed her forehead. He thought that if he had been unselfish, there would have been no misunderstanding between Rania and Dio, resulting in a wrongful love for Najwa.

“Ran, if I had listened to your words, and I had not avoided you, there would have been no such thing. Surely there will be no caution that is hurt because of me,” replied Dio.

“Why do you talk like that?” ask Rania.

“Yes, since I was disappointed with you, I approached Najwa and put a wound on his heart,” Dio replied.

“Do not blame yourself. I am sure someday Najwa will definitely be able to accept all this,” said Rania.

“Try it first when I listen to the word abah, if I and Najwa are sisters one nurse, surely it will not be like this, Ran. I'm selfish, I don't take it when you say that. I just touched my ego at the time. Najwa tried to avoid me. But I forced him to do what I wanted. Until he gave himself up for me to feel, what I shouldn't feel. I'm really a very selfish human being, Ran.” Dio was crying in Rania's arms.

“I didn't feel your torment at all back then. I always met Najwa, asking that she be always by my side. I don't care about you being my legal wife. I'm the most selfish person in the world. I'm sorry, Ran.” Dio's hoarse voice made Rania cry too.

He knew, Dio was also suffering from feeling this way. But, since Dio is a man, he is not as weak as Najwa. Rania knows that her husband has not forgotten the sin he committed against her and Najwa. But, Dio always kept that feeling, and he tried to make himself happy who was now his wife.

Rania let Dio cry in her arms. He also gave Dio understanding, and calmed Dio's heart.

In the afternoon, Habibi and Ainun will take Fattah and the others to the airport. Dio from earlier was silent and away from the others. He did not want to spoil the atmosphere of those who were cool to tell stories while waiting for Fattah who was talking to Opa Vishnu and Papah Erlangga.

Akmal saw Dio sitting alone away from his brothers. Akmal approached him and sat down next to Dio.

“How is your company, Dio?” ask Akmal to open the conversation.

“Currently, Alhamdulillah,” Dio replied briefly.

Akmal knew he was getting away from it all, just for not wanting to spoil the mood of Najwa who was joking with all his siblings.

“You didn't join there?” ask Akmal.

“Ah...no, I just received a call from my personal assistant, so I stayed away from them,” Dio replied.

“Oh...not because there is Najwa?” ask Akmal.

“Why if there is Najwa?” Dio asked back.

“Yes is okay. I know he's been avoiding you from yesterday. Maybe he's still a little awkward with you. Even though he no longer loves you,” said Habibi.

“Ya, just maybe,” replied Dio.

They were silent for a moment. Akmal also did not know what he would tell Dio again. He also did not feel good about discussing the past that had been buried.

“Akmal,” call Dio.

“Iya, what's up?” ask Akmal.

“I'm going to Najwa. I'm sorry, I ruined his life. If you really love her, accept Najwa for who she is. Love him, unconditionally and never torment his heart again. I'm sorry, it ruined his life. But, believe me, she's still a full-fledged woman. I haven't touched and ruined everything,” explained Dio.

“I already know all, Dio. Najwa told me everything. And, I love Najwa so much. I will take care of him, love him until the end of my life, I promise that,” Akmal said.

“Do not just give promises. Prove it. If you deny and hurt Najwa, I'm the first person who will make you regret it for the rest of your life. Hold my word, Akmal!” Dio spoke with great emphasis and decisiveness to Akmal.

“Yes I will prove it to you, Dio,” he replied firmly.

“Do you still love Najwa?” ask Akmal.

“If I still love Najwa. I'm not going back to Rania. I will also look for Najwa right then and there, when he was kicked out of the house by abah,” Dio replied.

Dio and Akmal chatted for quite a while, until Fattah came out from inside with Opa and Erlangga. Everyone was happy with Opa Vishnu and Erlangga. Opa Vishnu and Erlangga were unable to drive them to the airport, so only Habibi and Ainun were able to take them.

^^^

They've arrived at the airport. All say goodbye to Najwa and Akmal. They also thanked Akmal for taking good care of Najwa.

“Ki, thank you, we have troubled you,” said Fattah.

“It's been a regular time,” Akmal replied jokingly.

“Basic! Already, I say home, take care of my brother-in-law, watch out for your macems. You are the first person I look for if you hurt my sister-in-law,” threatened Fattah.

“Ready! I'm not gonna hurt him. How could I hurt him. I love him too much,” Akmal said.

“Don't love her too much. Love it just fine, brother. Watch out, if Kak Akmal hurt Najwa's heart. I'm the first person who will give you a lesson,” Raffi continued.

“Dan, remember your promise, Akmal. If you deny it,” threatened Dio as well.

“You're... Honey, I threatened all your brothers,” Akmal said.

“Ya, it should be like that,” replied Najwa.

“Look, all your brothers love you, you don't have to be afraid to go home, you don't have to be afraid to never forgive you. You should go home. And, I'm sorry, because I've made you suffer so much, Najwa,” said Dio.

“Iya, I will definitely go home, next month I come home. And, for that matter, forget it. I will learn to accept the reality of my life. Never mind, it's over, Dio. You take care of Rania and your son. Don't mess around, and never hurt Rania,” said Najwa.

“I'm waiting for you to come home. I'm not the only one waiting for you to come home. Everyone, all waiting for you to return home,” Dio said.

“And I will not hurt Rania,” Dio added.

All say goodbye, and embrace Najwa. And so is Dio. Dio requests Rania's permission to embrace Najwa, and vice versa, Najwa asks Akmal for permission to embrace Dio.

“I'm sorry, Brother. Be happy with Akmal. He's a good guy. And, remove all the regrets in your heart. I feel it too, but look, Akmal gives you a very beautiful love,” Dio said after embracing Najwa.

“Iya, Dio. I'll pick up my happiness with Akmal. Because I love him too,” said Najwa.

There was a sense of relief in Dio, because Najwa found someone who really loved him and was willing to accept him as he was. It was not just Dio who was relieved. All relieved to have met Najwa is fine. Najwa had also found someone who would accept him for who he was, and love him sincerely. Moreover, Raffi, he is very happy to spend time with his brother in 5 days. I think he still wants to be with his sister. If there is no work waiting, maybe he will go home next month with Najwa and Akmal

^^^^^

Habibi and Ainun were already in the car after driving Fattah and others at the airport. Habibi drove his car around casually. Because today he and Ainun are free there are no jobs, so Habibi is not nervous to return to the hospital.

“Duh happy at hug former,” ledek Habibi.

“Ih..what the hell, that's all I'm your permission. How did you become?” najwa said with a little annoyance.

“Iya, yes..already dong, do not get angry.” Habibi rubbed Ainun's cheek gently.

“Honey, marry yuk?” bring Habibi.

“Ya, ayuk... when?” ask Aninu.

“We follow them back to Indonesia only today,” replied Habibi.

“How are you doing with your work? Don't run away from responsibility. Finish your work first, then we go back to Indonesia,” said Ainun.

“Iya too anyway, but..”.

“But what? There is no but-but, married there must also be careful preparation, not only I love you, tomorrow married immediately. What not to think about the others, have not taken care of the letters for marriage and other requirements,’ said Ainun.

“Iya, too anyway. Yes, I obey you,” said Habibi.

“Don't get married for hunting love, baby. Marriage is worship, so the preparation is not only armed with love. Love can grow with time, baby,” said Ainun.

“Don't be afraid I don't love you, I love you, love you so much, Habibi. I'm waiting for next month, because I know, your work here is still very much. If I don't look there, I ask to go home now,” Ainun said.

“Yes too, that's all my work can only be completed in at least 3 weeks. So next month over a week,” said Habibi.

“Well, right?”

“You do understand me, Ainun,” Habibi said.

Habibi wanted to marry Ainun. He wanted to marry Ainun immediately, but there was still work that could not be delayed. He remembers when he was getting married to his fiancee. Habibi still did not graduate from college, the woman asked to get married as soon as possible. By the time Habibi was ready for everything. The woman without feeling guilty left Habibi to continue her dreams and ideals.

“Ainun is a mature woman. He can understand my position now. True to Dio, Ainun is a coolant and a tranquilizer of the heart. Every word he said was so soothing, so soothing. There are a lot of kids who love Ainun. Just a day he did not go to the hospital or to the halfway house, he was missed by many children there,” Habibi murmured.
