“I found you, Sha ...”
Still tightly hugging Marsha's body, the vanilla-flavored perfume that Abraham's sense of smell immediately felt when he firmly clutched Marsha's body. As if the chunk of stone that had been pressing on his chest until it felt so tight, there was now relief there. It was relief that led Abraham to shed his tears.
“I miss you, Sha ... Yang, miss you,” Abraham said again with his eyes closed.
Really, the charm of the temple like a land on the clouds actually becomes a place where the two meet each other. A longing soul, a love that never goes home, finally meets.
While Marsha was still frozen in place, her hands were shed. However, tears just blazed from the corner of his eyes. Tears were filled with doubt, resentment, and guilt that surrounded Marsha's heart now. Could it be that the place he was heading to right now was wrong? How did Abraham find it here?
Time passed, and Abraham still faithfully embraced Marsha. There is a fear in Abraham's heart now that when he lets go of that embrace Marsha will go back to leave him. Therefore, Abraham was reluctant to let go of his embrace. Abraham wanted to be able to continue to embrace Marsha and would not lose Marsha again.
However, Abraham did not want to just hold the woman's body from behind. Abraham looked at Marsha's face. The face that day and night he always misses. The face that makes him always restless. A face that will not be replaced from the room of his heart.
Slowly Abraham broke his embrace, then Abraham stepped up and now the man was in front of Marsha. Both hands of Abraham moved and cupped the face of Marsha who had just lowered his head.
“Sha, you're good right? You're healthy right Sha?” ask Abraham.
Abraham could see the eyes of Marsha who did not want to see. The eyeball moves and tries to get away from the object in front of it. Traces of tears are visible on Marsha's face. Abraham could not see Marsha's tears. Although many times he had seen Marsha cry, but every time he saw the tears of the woman made him so crowded.
“Sha,” call Abraham again. “See me, Sha,” Abraham said softly.
Marsha sobbed and her palms moved to cover her crying face. The bitter talk. Even the wind from the hills could not disguise Marsha's sobs.
Hearing Marsha's increasingly broken cry, Abraham eroded the distance of his foundation, then Abraham brought Marsha's body into his arms, buried Marsha's head into his chest, and his hands moved to give a swab at Marsha's hair.
“Why are you crying? Look at me, Marsha. Found you. No matter how far you go, I will look for you and find you,” Abraham said.
Allowing Marsha's cries, sobs, and tears, Abraham closed his eyes, and tightened his embrace. Give Marsha time to calm herself down. Abraham knew that Marsha must also be surprised to meet him suddenly.
Minutes change with minutes, until Marsha finally chooses to pull her face, and she releases Abraham's hand on her body.
“It is better to leave me, Bram,” Marsha said again with tears.
“Why Sha? Why should I leave you? I have absolutely no reason to leave you, ” replied Abraham confidently and earnestly.
“Our story is over, Bram .. Now, we better get on with each other's lives. Take your path and I will also take my path,” said Marsha.
If love does not get blessing, for what equally crosses the path that ends deadlocked. How much better to let it go. Let Abraham be a filial son to his mother. Let the love give up.
“No, I don't want to. How can I go my way, if ... path ... which ... I go to .. ends ... in you.” Abraham said all this. Again Abraham explained that the end of the road he went through was Marsha.
Such a great gesture of love that Abraham is saying today. No matter the road he had to go through was steep and winding, but Abraham's one belief that all the roads he went only came down on Marsha alone. There was never any other path Abraham could have taken, if not Marsha's end.
Slowly Marsha unravels Abraham's hand, which is still trying to hold his hand, and Marsha turns. Slowly his foot stepped and was about to leave Abraham there. This time Marsha will strengthen her own heart. Twice Marsha left Abraham, this time she will do the same.
I have to go, Bram …
My heart is not as strong as yours …
My faith is not as firm as you …
When I start loving you again …
At the same time I have to let you go …
I'm leaving, Bram …
A heart that felt so sore, a chest that felt increasingly tight, and also the second time he had to quench his growing feelings for Abraham. A love that is lived without a sincere blessing will eventually only end in the middle of the road. For this reason, Marsha chose to release it before everything dragged on.
However, only five steps taken by Marsha, Abraham slightly ran and re-captured Marsha's body.
“Gak Sha .. You can't leave me like this again. I won't accept it, Sha .. because I sincerely love you. Please Sha, fight with me. We get the blessing of Mama together. As long as we want to try and try, surely we can get the blessing of Mama,” said Abraham now.
Marsha sobbed, what a pain. He felt a dilemma. Accepting Abraham and standing next to him risks having to fight for Mama Diah's blessing, or choosing to leave and cut off her feelings for Abraham. Everything is risky, everything requires a struggle.
“Sha, I can get to this stage .. I can find you, although I have no trace of you at all, I am sure of the love that brought us together. The love that unites me and you. Love that brings us both together. I love you, Sha!”
Abraham spoke again and he firmly believed that it was love that had brought him to Marsha again. It was love that brought him here, and here he found Marsha. For that firm belief, Abraham would not take his feelings for granted. Abraham confidently strives to gain the blessing of Mama Diah, and makes Marsha fully convinced by her feelings and the power of her love.
