The Goddess of Pigeons

CHAPTER 16: CHASED BY FOREIGN MEN

“beautiful like what?” Ask Furqon.

“just like you want to make someone happy unconditionally. There you will be taught the meaning of a sincerity.” Answer Ando.

“are you like that to your wife?” Ask Furqon.

“of course not yet, Furqon pure love is love that does not want the slightest reply. Only Sufis who are not bound to the world can have it.” Answer Ando.

“then you married your wife what reason? If it's not love.” Ask Furqon.

“can be ego can be.. soul mate.” Answer Ando.

“if viewed from the point of ego, I really want to make it mine. But if viewed in terms of soul mate he I choose because my heart wants it. So. I still haven't been through the pure love of friends. But marriage is the way to learn it. So that I can let go of all without ego and without expecting anything in return.” Answer Ando.

“i really don't understand.” Furqon.

“ya... the point is all will be beautiful if you know the meaning of pure love.” Answer Ando.

“good.” Answer Furqon.

“why suddenly? What... don't-don't you.” said Ando.

“ah you are, I just asked.” Furqon.

“ayolah we already know each other for decades, of course you must have a reason to ask. Whoever he is he must be very lucky to get someone like you Furqon.” Ando.

“why do you say that?” Ask Furqon.

“iya you never play girls, honestly, wisely, respect people. What's not on you Furqon.” Ando.

“you said that because you like me. Try if you hate me? That's not what I hear from your mouth. Don't judge people in your own view.” Furqon.

“make it, in your hymn like that. Very wise anyway.” Ando.

“hah Furqon.

They spoke in the front seat. Furqon to the left of Ando, Ando who drives the car.

After Am finished eating, he immediately rushed to find his best friend, Amaltheia. I was really curious about what had happened to him just now. Am looking for the cause why Am unknowingly can see Furqon from ignorance.

“ibu, Fi out first yes..” says Am.

“where nak?” Ask mother.

“Fi no urgent business in Permadani city bu. There's his best friend Fi. Fi wants to see him.” Am said.

“please be careful yes son.” Said mother.

“iya mother. Thanks though. Assallamu’alaikum” says Am.

Am leaving on foot. It was as if sweat had appeared on his forehead. Halfway through the trip, I stopped for a moment. He's sitting on the side of the road.

Because the road was a transportation road connecting the village and the city, many people passed through it. Everyone who goes down that path his gaze is always on Am. Who was sitting. His white skin reflects sunlight. This makes the road users stunned by its beauty.

“hei look there, the girl is so beautiful” said the passerby on the street.

“who is he? Beautiful once.” said passers-by.

Then there were some young men who approached Am. They want to meet Am. Am answered them kindly. I don't know what their purpose is. Then the three young men seduced Am. Then hold his hand. They pulled Am to ride their bike. Seeing their disrespectful attitude. I am starting to feel uncomfortable.

“no thanks, I can walk myself” said Am.

“nothing miss go up with us, later we will drop miss.” Said one of the young men.

Then Am rebelled and he ran. The three young men were chasing Am. I ran towards the forest. And no one can be asked for help by Am. The only way Am has to keep running. But because Am is not used to running with his legs, Am decides to hide. In the bush he hid with a heart that was beating very fast. He was afraid, this was the first time he had been like that.

The three men were looking for Am. But I did not meet. They finally decided to go home.

“ah shit, this is because you don't hold it properly tau. So lose good food.” Said one of the young men.

“hey don't blame me. You alone? Why not stop him?” said one of them.

“hah really shit.” Said one of them.

Seeing what had just happened, I decided to go back. And not continue his journey.

(apparently not all humans can be as good as Furqon.) inner Am.

I returned to tell nothing to my mother. He's just afraid if mom gets worried and thoughtful.

“have home son?” Ask mother.

“iya mom, Fi not so continue the journey. This time in the middle of the trip FI felt tired. So Fi decided back.” Am said.

“if walking tired, why don't you just use Furqon's bike, kak?” said mother.

“by bu?” Ask Am.

“certain.” Answer mother.

“but Fi don't yet know how to ride it.” Am said.

“ya sometime you can ask ajari kakar Furqon. Easy to do.” Said mother.

“iya mom thanks.” Am said.

*****

Ando's business is done. On the way home, Furqon was approached by the angel Dorit.

“hei human, I know where Am is.” Dorit.

Hearing Dorit say that made Furqon turn his head. And find a reason to keep Ando from seeing their conversation.

“Ando can stop for a moment?” Ask Furqon.

“ada what?” Ask Ando.

“aku... must go to toilet.” Furqon.

“oh well on the road ahead there will be a gas station. We stop there.” Ando.

After that, they stopped. Then Furqon came out in a small mosque next to the POM public toilet.

Seeing that no one was there, Furqon asked what the angel Dorit had said.

“you met him? Where?” Ask Furqon.

“dia is not far with you Furqon.” Dorit.

“what do you mean angel?” Ask Furqon.

“there was a girl who suddenly came into your house. Who do you think he is?” Dorit.

“wait.. wait.. You mean Am is Miss Fi?” Ask Furqon.

“iya,” says Dorit.

“why did he become human? And why didn't he tell me?” furqon.

“maybe. He left suddenly without a word to leave. And make you feel guilty. But approaching you secretly so that you love her for her power back.” Dorit.

“I have to ask.”

“Thanks angel. You have helped me.” Furqon.

From a distance came a voice calling out to Furqon.

“Furqon's chat.. “

“hready finished? Can we continue?” ando.

“ah yes, let's let's go.” Furqon.

They continued their journey home.
