The Faithful Heart

Be Better

It doesn't feel like six months have passed. The relationship between Hana and the Gods goes smoothly, even though they never expose her at school. Not even Hana's best friend knew of their closeness.

As he promised, the Gods began to change into better persons. He did not want to disappoint the trust of Hana and her family. Together with Hana God's life becomes more directed and feels complete. Not only the presence of Hana but both of Hana's parents also meant a lot to the Gods.

Like a puzzle, the life of the God who once messed up has now been neatly arranged even pieces that once never existed have now been completed, the affection of parents and the figure of a father. Meeting with Hana is the most beautiful gift, besides the love of God can also feel the meaning of a whole family. Something that was never present in his life. Through the guidance of parents and the support of Hana, Dewa again diligently studied and performed worship. Achievements in school also skyrocketed, even during the semester exams he could get the highest score in his class. The teachers in the school felt amazed and proud of the change in the spirit of learning of Gods.

True gods are reborn with new spirit and hope. Yes hope, something that he had once feared, because hope had once made him fall into the abyss of deep disappointment and made him fall apart. And Hana was the figure who had managed to pull the God from that dark-feeling abyss.

Thanks to Hana now God has many dreams that he wants to achieve. And Hana is the center of all God's dreams.

That afternoon the God drove his motorbike lethargic. How not? The figure that became the encouragement of his life, all day giving no news. Neither calls nor messages were answered. It has been a few weeks God is always home from school in the afternoon because there are additional lessons. Usually Hana always contact to encourage or just exchange news. But not that day, all day God did not hear or see the figure of Hana in school. Although they cover their closeness, they usually take the time to exchange views in the canteen during the break.

" Loe why the hell is Han? " gutter God while trying to contact Hana's mobile number.

" The number you're going to is not active." the voice from the phone that had not been separated from his hand.

" Huff." The god breathed a rough breath.

" WA is not active, no messages are answered, no phone can not. Loe's okay, isn't Han? Am I just going to Samperin's house?"

The god aimed his motorbike towards Hana's house.

I hope what happened to Hana.

It didn't take long for the Gods to arrive in front of a green house. He got off the motor and rushed to the entrance.

" Tok tok!"

" Assalamualaikum." No response from inside the house. Even the house looked deserted like there were no inhabitants in it.

With doubt the Lord opened the door of the house.

" Czech." The god was a bit surprised because the door of the house was unlocked.

The door's not locked, what's going on? Hopefully nothing bad happens to Hana and her family.

The god ventured into the house to dispel his curiosity. Slowly, he stepped his foot.

"Assalamualaikum, Om, Aunt, Hana?" The god barged through the living room towards the middle room.

Arrive arrive.

" Walaikumsalam..surprise...!" yelled Hana, Evi and her parents.

The eyes of the God were wide, his body was sculpting. As if I couldn't believe what he saw.

Hana stood with her parents while carrying a large tart in front of her decorated with candles with the number 19. Without God knowing the tears had escaped from his eye peluk.

" Merry birthday." cried Hana.

" You guys.hiks hyks hyks." The gods cannot continue, he said. His cry broke, the tears that had escaped had now flowed profusely into his cheeks.

Hana's father approached, embracing the body of the God with great affection.

The god closed his eyes.

Hopefully this is not just a dream that will disappear when the eyes are open. Always protect this family, O God. Put happiness on them. Hopefully I can be a real part of this family. Make Hana my soul mate who will always be by my side.

The god opened his eyes slowly, dazed with fear that what was in front of him would disappear along with his opened eyes.

" Let's quickly blow out the candle, heavy to know this bread from earlier." Hana's speech resuscitated the God from her daydream.

With a smile unfolded God finally blew out the candle that was no longer shaped number 19 because it had been burning for too long.

"Fuhhh." the candle on the cake was extinguished, greeted with applause from Evi and Hana's parents.

" Let's cut the cake, it's made by me and mom. Guaranteed to be delicious." Hana puts a tart in her hand.

God cut the cake and distributed it to Hana and her family.

" Happy birthday yes, happy always" said Hana's mother while embracing God.

" Thank you very much Auntie. This is the most beautiful birthday of my life. Thank you all. Thank you." said the god with a full day. The water ball again escaped from his eye pelupuk.

"Hi don't cry, the moment of birthday should be celebrated with a smile of happiness not tears" said Hana's mother while removing her embrace which in fact also shed tears. He imagined how the gods lived all this time. Life without the affection of parents.

Hana once told all the stories of God to her parents. He does not want to cover anything from the person who has cared for and raised him. He was afraid that his parents would be disappointed when they learned the story of God from others. But beyond expectations Hana, instead of angry or disappointed, her parents were very sympathetic to the life of God. And they are convinced that the gods are good. And Hana's job is to guide the gods to no longer go down the wrong path.

" There are no more cries." Hana's father broke the novelty.

" I heard from Hana you managed to become a class champion in the semester exam huh? Congratulations, I hope you continue to study diligently so that the next exam gets a satisfactory score. And you can go on to the college you want."

" Thank you Om. It's all thanks to your prayers and support." a smile adorned the handsome face of God.

" Happy birthday, Brother God." Evi shakes the hand of God. The god replied with a nod and a smile.

" Happy birthday yes, hopefully can be achieved all your thoughts and ideals." Hana thrust her hand in front of the God. Instead of welcoming Hana's hand, the God hugged Hana's body.

" Thank you, this is the most beautiful birthday I've ever been through" said the Lord with great happiness.

" Eh uh, remember not muhrim. Don't hug the hug. Not halal" said Hana's father while separating Hana and Dewa.

The god grimaced revealing his white row of teeth while scratching his head that did not feel itchy.

" Sorry Om, khilaf. He he."

" Khilaf khilaf, so study and diligent effort so as to quickly reach all dreams. Only later marriage can continue to hug as much."

" He he, I promise Om I will try hard so that one day can be successful and deserve to be with Hana."

In silence Hana assures God's words. A single tear escaped in the corner of his eye that he had been holding.

The god stared fixedly at Hana's face which looked red.

I promise I will try hard so that I can make Hana happy someday. I don't want to disappoint the family who have blessed me with this affection. For Hana'S sake I'LL GET BETTER.
