Early in the morning I got out of the inn we rented during a beebulaln of honey. Its location is not far from the beach so its own attraction for me during my stay here.
The waves that broke on the beach, became a lullaby and morning hum whenever I woke up from sleep.
Like this morning I want to enjoy the sunrise at this beach. A very beautiful and beautiful beach.
I quietly went out and walked down the beach. I didn't wake Dion. Because last night he stayed up late, completing some very urgent tasks.
The fog was still descending, a tinge of red light slowly appearing bashful. Like a baby's shy smile . Beautiful and adorable. Not to forget, I immortalized the beauty through my watch camera. I picked some of the nicest ones and kept them in the gallery.
From far away, I saw a body figure running in the morning. Wrapped in a hoodie jacket, so I couldn't identify his face. But from the shape of his body, that figure was very familiar in my memory.
The longer that figure got closer, the more convinced I became of my guess. Sure enough she's Arby, my sister.
Just a few more steps I'll cross paths with him. I'm ready to say hello. Since the first meeting yesterday, this is where we met again.
I tried to make an appointment to meet him, but he refused. I understand it. Maybe all this confused him.
As Dr. Satrio said, everything needs a process. Until Arby opens himself up.
"Hi, good morning," I said kindly as soon as we faced each other. For a moment I saw a shocked expression on his face.
"Hi, too," he said casually, then took off his hoodie hat.
"How are you," I said. I don't know why I felt awkward when I met the two like this.
"Good," he said formally. I tried to melt the atmosphere so as not to feel stiff. Seen from his attitude, Arby, also infected my awkward attitude.
"Eh, Sisca's not coming, is she?" I said pura dingukan looking for the figure of Siska.
"He doesn't like to run in the morning. Mbak's husband didn't come?"
"Hehe....Yes, it's still slitting," I said as I close my palms together and I stuck it on my left cheek. "In the meantime, I really like the sunrise just as much as the sunset, and don't want to lose that moment."
Arby laughed, the laughter really belonged to Arby. I was amazed to hear that laughter. The laughter that had been gone for several months had disappeared.
"Hey, hey...." Arby waved his hand in front of my face. Because I suddenly fell silent, when I heard his laughter. I'll wake up soon.
"Eh, sorry. I was, I mean you remind me of someone."
"Arby, huh?"
"Eh, yes,"
"Is he really that similar to me?" said it.
"Sir, sure I'm Arby? The brother who disappeared a few months ago?"
"I'm sorry, can we talk there, please" I pointed to a bench under a tree not far from where we were standing. Arby, agreed and stepped towards that bench. I followed behind him.
"I don't doubt that. I'm sure you're my sister" I assured her. Arby, looking at me. As if seeking certainty from my words.
"These are pictures of togetherness in our family. This is your papa and mama and your nieces Devan and Mitha" I showed the gallery on my phone to Arby.
"Devan, so that's my nephew's name, huh? Not my name. That name is often present in my dreams, I always shout that name. So I thought, it's my name." Suddenly Arby pinched his head. Like holding back the pain.
"Why are you, what's wrong with my words?" manyworry.
"Ah, it's okay, ma'am. I always do that every time I try, remembering who I really am."
"Don't force it, let it all flow slowly" I said with pity.
"I've been trying to figure out who my family is. But, I found no trace of him at all."
"Said the doctor, you should visit a place that you used to go through all this time. If you don't mind, how about you come with us back to Medan. Perhaps, by meeting your father or mother directly, your memory can recover."
Arby was silent when he heard my suggestion.
"Am I going to be accepted into a big family, ma'am?"
"Why not, because you are part of that family. Of course everyone will be happy, welcome you home," I said reassuringly .
"As for whether I was in my past, I was afraid that I was a child who always let down his own parents."
"Even if you're not a child, it's best. But I'm sure your mom and dad's love will erase all that."
"But I'm married, I'm not going home alone."
"That's why my mom and dad wanted you to get married. It would be a great surprise later oti, for papa and mama."
"Well, I'll talk to my wife and my in-laws first."
"Sister will also, tell our family about you. I'm sure, papa and mama will be very happy to hear this news," I said .
In the end, our extended family gathered again. Arby, whose aunt Elis has died, is still alive. Arby, a survivor of an attempted murder masterminded by his own, biological mother.
Our extended family could be gathered together again. Papa and Mama are very happy because Arby is married too. Although Arby's memory has not recovered, hopefully with time he will recover as before.
Just as my heart was once scarred by the betrayal of my husband, thanks to the love and affection of Dion, I regained the confidence to start a new life. Because the love of my lost race has returned. End, *****
