The Love Competition

79 . I'm Sorry

Dila had just finished packing some of her luggage . Today he plans to go to college to take a college permit . Doctor Panji suggested that he rest and wait properly fit to do solid activities .

That's why he chose to meet up go alone to campus and take care of everything .

The sound of knocking on the door of his room made Dila who was ready to rush out . When the door opened, Jordi stood in front of the door smiling .

" Hey.good morning..." Sapa Jordi with a big smile .

" Morning..why are you here ? " Tanya Dila with a face of wonder .

" Of course take you ", replied Jordi while allowing Dila to walk first .

" I..? , Why? , ? , I can drive myself " replied Dila while walking towards the stairs .

" No.. This time I will take you" said Jordi who walked behind him .

The two went down the stairs in silence .

" Neng... breakfast and medicine first..." Call Mak Asih who has been standing in the dining room as if waiting for the arrival of Dila .

" Thank you, sir..." Said Dila while sitting in a chair that had been prepared by Jordi .

" Let me mom..." Jordi said when she saw Mak Asih carrying a bowl of warm porridge from the kitchen .

Deftly the young man brought a tray of chicken porridge that had just been warmed and served it to Dila .

" Eat...." Said Jordi while sitting next to Dila .

" Why are you serving me ? " Say Dila while looking at Jordi's face which was only glued to her face .

" Because I'm your lover" replied Jordi casually .

Dila hit the arm of Jordi who seemed to not care about the presence of Mak Asih who was still pacing back and forth in the room .

" Why ...? " goda Jordi who knew Dila was surprised by the word he said, while Mak Asih only held back a laugh .

" How's grandpa doing ? " Task Dila while feeding a spoonful of porridge to her mouth .

" It's stable, the situation is better "answer Jordi .

" Thank God." said Dila Seraya sipping the drinking water in front of her .

" What time is your business done ? " Task Jordi while grabbing a tissue and giving it to Dila .

" Don't know yet, why?" Dila asked in wonder .

" I'll pick you up " replied Jordi as she grabbed a piece of bread and collected it with peanut butter.

" No need I can take a taxi, you're busy enough I don't want to bother you "answer Dila with a serious face .

" I don't feel bothered "Answer Jordi as she feeds her food into her mouth .

" I said no need I could be alone "Clearly with his wish .

" You haven't fully recovered yet, I don't want you to be exhausted, so please call me as soon as your business is done" Jordi said sternly .

" I'll be fine "Dila is still arguing .

"okay..... You feel I'm troubled I'll ask Didit to be on standby to pick you up until you're completely healthy "this time Jordi said firmly .

" At this time we need to worry about is grandfather not I "Dila said while finishing breakfast .

" Grandfather will do the same for you "Jordi grabbed Dila's hand .

Dila took a deep breath . He looked at Jordi's face carefully, the man did not show his fatigue, but Dila knew he was busy taking care of the company, let alone so much trouble since grandfather entered the hospital two days ago .

" Why look at me so? , do I look more handsome ? " jordi Goda .

Dila held back her smile hearing the man's words before her. For some reason Jordi's jokes comforted her .

" you should pay more attention to grandfather" said Dila after a moment of silence .

" he'll be fine "answe Jordi briefly .

The man then grabbed a small plate containing the medicine that should be taken Dila . He also put the drug in front of Dila as soon as Dila finished breakfast . Without much asking Dila immediately took the drug .

The two then left home together . No one is home , Mrs Kirana has been away since morning , Rizky has been two days not home .

It's been two days Mr. Gunawan has been unconscious . Dila still came to the hospital even though everyone told her to rest at home .

The streets seem to be stuck , this is the beginning of Sunday where everyone is back busy with work affairs . Jordi looked forward calmly, traffic jams as if they did not affect her mood today .

Of course , this was the first day she drove Dila to college & the first time they were just sitting together after they officially dated .

Dila leaned her head on the back of the chair, the soft song of Katon Bagaskara's voice with her old chat became an introduction for her to remember a moment several years ago, memories that arrived just crossed her mind .

Love as soft as a Cloud...

Still stored in the heart...

Charming

I'm in Landa deserted...

Why only you

Gushing all the flavors

Present in every breath

shadowyamu...

" Woe...You guys let's eat first ? " Ivan's call stopped Dedi's activities that were busy strumming guitars .

" Ach, please..." Sahut Dila who was sitting next to Dedi .

They had just come down the mountain, and stopped by the house of one of Ivan's distant brothers who lived on the slopes near Papandayan mountain .

" I want to eat first" said Dedi while putting down his guitar .

" Come on, Brother Dedi..." Rengek Dila who really likes to see people singing while playing guitar .

" I'm laper la..later Ach...! " Dedi passed by regardless of himself .

Dila grabbed the guitar, he held the guitar while staring deep into the mountain Papandayan . His lips muttered occasionally, singing his favorite song .

" You like that song so much ? " One's question made Dila turn her head .

" Give the guitar "advanced the owner of a deep voice that seemed unconcerned with Dila's shock .

" What are you doing here? , how did you get here ? " Tanya Dila who couldn't hide her surprise .

As is his habit, Jidan suddenly appeared when he was feeling upset . at that time he often arrived to cancel their trip , and appear suddenly in the middle of the journey or when the journey has ended .

The man did not answer his question, he took the guitar from Dila's hand and sat cross-legged beside him .

Dila was of course very upset, but as usual her sense of regret would evaporate just like that when she saw the man's warm smile .

Jidan's fingers began to strum the strings of the guitar wily, occasionally the man smiled at him . Her deep voice echoed softly singing Katon Bagaskara's song, her favorite song of all time .

" Silver...." A voice breaks Dila's daydream .

" You daydreaming ? "

Dila looked at the man who was now beside her , and of course it was not Jidan but Jordi . The car they were driving had also been parked in front of the campus .

Dila quickly opened the safety belt that coiled around her body . He cleared his throat several times to relieve the discomfort in his heart .

" What are you thinking ? " Task Jordi while looking deeply into Dila's face .

Dila just smiled while shaking his head, he certainly did not want to hurt Jordi by telling the truth that the song that flowed from the CD player in his car had evoked a memory between himself and Jidan .

" I go first, heart to head to the office" said Dila as she reached for the car door .

" Yes.., don't forget to call me when your business is done" said Jordi with a sweet smile .

Dila waved her hand , taking off Jordi with the warm smile she had . After Jordi's car passed the girl stepped into the campus office .

" Silver...." A familiar voice sounded from behind .

Dila unhesitatingly twisted her body, at her sight Ocha was running towards her .

" Hey..., you have class today ? " Tanya Dila while hugging Ocha . The girl simply nodded while adjusting her hunting breath .

" Ich ..kamu nih.kamu already waved when you got out of the car" said Ocha annoyed after managing to set his breath almost broken .

" Sa ? , I did not hear , I swear.." replied Dila while raising her hand, forming the letter v with her finger .

" Are you healthy ? " Tanya Ocha while looking at Dila's face .

" It's good." replied Dila as she stepped her foot .

Both walked along casually .

" Oh...., are you going to start college today ? " Task Ocha

" I want to recover my health first, so today I want to take care of academic leave officially, yesterday grandfather had taken care of it when I arrived sick , I came to say thank you and handed over some documents "answer Dila .

" O...How long ? " Task Ocha

" Just one semester , I want to calm myself down "answered Dila .

" Yes.I guess all this time you need time to yourself "Ocha smile warmly .

" Are you going back to Sukabumi ? " Task Ocha while looking at her .

" I don't know I don't know yet, I want to wait for my grandfather to realize first, after that just think about the next plan " replied Dila .

" Mister Gunawan? ? , Why is he ? " Ocha scrunched his forehead .

" His heart disease relapsed again was old the day he was admitted to the hospital and had not been aware until now" replied Dila .

" Owh... , Ach I went to class first yes, I'll call again . Dach......" Ocha walked towards her class while waving at Dila .

Dila immediately walked towards the admistration building . He wants to immediately finish his business on campus 'cause he wants to immediately accompany Mr. Gunawan .

☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

The car Jordi was driving drove quietly on the highway . The young man was still driving leisurely enjoying the chant of music . His lips muttered occasionally, following the beautiful lyric lyrics of the song he played .

When Jordi was busy enjoying music, the sound of mobile phone disturbing the fun .

jordi casually grabbed the phone placed on the dashboard of the car, looking at the phone screen just before receiving the call .

" Yes hello...." Answer Jordi relax .

" Jo this is mama, hurry to the hospital now also "the voice of Madam Nisa from across the phone .

" No, you just come to the hospital" replied Miss Nissa Seraaya hanging up the phone .

Without a second thought Jordi immediately changed his route to the Hospital where Mr. Gunawan was treated .

About half an hour later, Jordi arrived at the Hospital . The young man immediately ran to the ICU room, where Mr. Gunawan was in care . When he arrived in the hallway in front of the ICU room, he saw that Irma was crying while hugging her mother and Mak Asih . While his cousins were sculpting while leaning against the wall .

Jordi was glued in place , her whole body felt stiff . He stared at the open door of the ICU . With gontai he walked into the room without caring about the call of the mother .

Inside the room was seen mistress Kirana sitting languidly in a chair, and the father who was standing next to mistress Kirana . He saw two people opening medical equipment attached to the grandfather's body . while two doctors were standing not far from there talking to several other nurses .

" what are you doing ?! " Jordi shouted as he walked quickly to the bed and pushed a nurse who was about to remove the medical device .

Mr. Juan swiftly pulled Jordi's body to prevent his son from abusing the nurse .

" what are you guys doing..!!! , I want to talk to her ! " cried Jordi .a few nurses who were talking to the doctor immediately helped Mr. Juanda calm the young man down .

" Jo..its noting we can do.." whispered the father as he rubbed his back.The middle-aged man tried to calm the son who was indeed the grandson closest to the grandfather .

" I want to talk to him .." muttered Jordi in a trembling voice .

" He is gone." whispered Mr. Juanda .

" we have to let it go "he continued .

" i promised Dila he'd be fine " muttered Jordi with a blank look . The young man was sitting limply on the floor in the corner of the room .

both of Jordi's sturdy hands rubbed her reddened face holding back tears . long she sat on the 'floor, while the father just squatted while continuing to wipe her pouch swab . a while later Jordi had calmed down, the nurses resumed their work .

Jordi got up from the icy floor, lethargic she grabbed a chair and dragged it to the side of the bed, then the young man immediately dropped his body on the chair , his eyes looked at the helpless corpse of the grandfather .

" i'am sorry.sorry Jordi cake.." muttered Jordi while lowering her head .

" p...can I talk to him, both ? " said jordi after being silent for a long time .

" Yes.yes." replied Mr. Juanda while nodding his head . He immediately took Miss Kirana out of the room, the doctors and nurses had long since left them .

" grandfather said I should win her heart ..., then you can go quietly, why did you go in such a hurry ? " Jordi spoke while clasping the grandfather's palm cold .

" does grandfather meet Jidan now? , If not.of course grandfather already knows he is still in this world . Is grandpa still entrusting Dila to me ? " Jordi smiled wryly .

" I know even though grandfather was so hard on Jidan, grandfather was always proud of him .he never disappointed anyone .he was perfect in your eyes and in Dila's eyes , I will never be able to beat him, will I not ? . But this time I will make sure I am the best in your eyes ...Dila will be the granddaughter-in-law of our family . so be calm there.., I will take good care of her, please bless me.." slowly Jordi let go of her hand . he was silent for a moment .

" Silver..." Jordi muttered then immediately got up from her sluggish seat, with a flick she walked out of the room .

" has anyone told Dila this ? " asked Jordi in a loud voice, she asked everyone who was sitting in front of the room .everyone was just silent, staring at her.

" Adam was picking her up " replied Madame Nisa who looked so calm .

" oom Adit also has not come, he was in a meeting with the officials of his phone was not raised since "mrs Irma chimed in .

Jordi looked around 'em, trying to figure out the father .

" papa is talking to the RS for the return of the body, also telling the office to convey this sad news to all employees and the board of directors " the mother's words made Jordi feel calm, she immediately sat in a chair, right next to Rizky who was uploading status on social media .

Lady Irma and Lady Nisa immediately entered the room to pay their last respects to the in-laws .

Jordi was still silent, her mind was deadlocked . He did not know what to do, the young man chose to sit pensively in the chair . Dila's sad face when losing Eyang Saka made his heart worry about the girl .

his hand immediately grabbed the phone in his pocket and immediately called Adam's number .

" have you met him ? " Jordi immediately railed against Adam with a question as soon as the call was connected .

" I'm still in the parking lot, waiting for him to come out " replied Adam in the middle of the noise .

" Don't say anything, just take her home" Jordi said as she hung up .

☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

Dila heaved a sigh of relief after finishing all her affairs . The girl stepped lightly leaving the admistration building . It was already noon, he decided to look for Ocha and take her to lunch together .

Dila quickly searched for her phone that she had stored in the bag . Dila immediately searched for Ocha's name in his cellphone contact, he immediately called his best friend 'but his hand stopped his intention to call Ocha because he saw the chat notification on his phone .

A chat notification from Bima caught Dila's attention, without hesitation he opened a chat from Jidan's best friend .

" Are you okay ? " A question made Dila frown her forehead .

" Tell me If you need a friend to talk "chat Bima next make Dila more frowned .

Dila stepped her feet without looking around her , the girl was cool looking at her phone .

" I'm sorry I'm in Ambon, so I can't comfort you directly, I hope you can accept all of this with sincerity " Dila still continued reading chat from Bima which made him frown more .

Dila was about to type a few words, but her phone rang .a phone call from Jordi made her stop what she wanted to do .

" You're done with your business ? " The voice he was very familiar with immediately lampooned him with a question as soon as he received the call .

" Yes...., just now ..., are you in the office ? " Tanya Dila while walking slowly .

" Em... Come home. Adam is waiting for you in the parking lot .

" Huh?! ..., I'm fine . I want to meet Ocha , today I want to have lunch with him " said Dila .

" Can't be..., you just healed . Go home I wait for you " said Jordi softly .

Dila smiled at the words of the lover . I don't know he feels since they've been officially dating, the man has become overprotective of him .

" Jo.I'm good...

" No debate...." Jordi cut out the sentence she was going to say .

Dila took a deep breath . He felt uncomfortable and upset .

" You hear me ? " Task Jordi after both of them fell silent . There was a noisy sound from where Jordi was, even faintly faint he heard the voice of Mr. Nurdin .

" Are you skipping work again ? " Task Dila in a resentful tone .

" There is something I have to do "answer Jordi in a slightly murmuring voice .

" Go home..do not go where " continued Jordi .

" Silver...." The voice he knew made Dila turn her head . at the sight Adam was waving his hand towards him .

" Adam is here..." Say Dila with a slumber .

" Thank God.., hurry home" said Jordi as she hung up .

Dila just scrunched her forehead realizing her phone had been closed . The girl stepped over to Adam who was talking on the phone out of nowhere . The man hung up his phone shortly .

" Dam...sorry makes you bother . But today I want to meet some friends "said Dila once the two have faced each other .

" Emh..sir Aditya there is need with you "answer Adam quickly .

" Om Adit? , isn't it in Jakarta ? " Dila looked at Adam .

" Yes he has come home, and asked me to pick you up "Adam replied as he walked calmly ahead of Dila .

Dila was still silent in her place in confusion .

" Dila..ayo fast ! " Adam's cry makes Dila reflex to walk after Adam .

Before long the two reached the parking area, Adam quickly opened the car door for him . And the young man quickly took him out of the campus .

After a half-hour journey they entered the residential complex area . On Dila's way more silent 'cause Adam was busy answering the phone out of anyone ', Dila felt very guilty about the young man .

When approaching the big house Dila was surprised to find many cars that had been parked on the streets around .

" What's this...? Tumben rame "murm Dila while looking at Adam who looks unsettled .

Both of them just fell silent while staring at the streets filled with snaking cars , until Dila saw a standing flower that was being lifted by two people from a pick-up car parked not far from the host Gunawan .

I am saddened by the passing of Mr. Gunawan Prayoga ......

Deg ! Dila's heart seemed to stop at that moment . He looked at Adam's face which seemed to be starting to calm down .

Dila tried to take a deep breath, but her breath seemed to run out . her world seemed to stop spinning . His legs were limp and the view began to hollow firefly and somehow let alone what he felt, in an instant all became dark in his vision .

Dila felt her head heavy, she felt very weak even though she could not open her eyes yet smell the scent of eucalyptus oil, she painstakingly tried to open her eyes .

The girl opened her eyes wide, and saw a figure she knew very well was scolding her. A man wearing a shirt also stood beside her bed .

" Thankfully.neng was already aware "the sound of relief Mak Asih made Dila try to digest the situation .

The man he felt was a doctor immediately examined himself .

" He's fine, please get me a drink, ma'am..." Pinta the man gently .

Dila immediately drank a few sips of water that Mak Asih thrust at him after the doctor he did not know helped the girl sit while leaning .

" I go out first , you should Miss Take a break for a while .." said the man as he stepped away .

Dila began to realize what happened , he felt he fainted while in the car earlier . Dila looked at Mak Asih who looked very worried , the girl was unable to stem the clear crystal that dripped from both groups of her beautiful eyes .

" Cry it.it's okay .." murmured Mak Asih while hugging Dila .

Dila could only sob , unable to say whatever his tongue felt like a joke .

" Why....." Said Dila in the middle of her crying without being able to say anything else .

" God is more dear to him "mak Asih whispered comfort .

Dila was silent as she continued to cry . Until the door of his room opened and the figure of Jordi walked in slowly approaching them .

Mak Asih immediately let go of his embrace, and walked away leaving both of them .

" Mom want to tell home people yes neng "Say Mak Asih before leaving .

Dila just nodded while looking at Jordi's calm looking face . The man sat on the edge of the bed, slowly his hands outstretched, the man tidied up a few strands of a haircut that partially covered his face .

Dila was only silent with tears in her eyes, but her vision was blurry because tears were still able to catch the face that looked trying hard in front of her, because she knew that eyes were harboring deep sadness .

" Sorry...." Say the man with weight .

" i'm sorry for not being able to keep my promise that he'll be fine " murmured Jordi slowly .

Dila bit her lower lip , trying to toughen up . He knew the man in front of him was certainly more lost in his appeal . He immediately put his head on the man's chest without saying anything .

Jordi grabbed the tiny body, until it was in her arms . He let Dila sob there for some time, until his clothes were warm because they were wet with Dila's tears .

It is ironic that they have been at a time like this twice . when the girl first wet her back when Eyang saka died and now when the grandfather left the world .

Slowly Dila's cries began to subside, Jordi gently held Dila's shoulder and let go of her embrace . He looked at the girl's face, then grabbed a few pieces of tissue that were on a small table near the bed, rubbing the tears of his girl who was starting to dry .

Jordi stared at Dila in ', she was really sorry to have promised something that was out of her control to the girl . she easily promised Dila that her grandfather would be fine , and now he saw the girl crying over the grandfather's departure .

" sorry ..." muttered Jordi only in reply to the eyes of Beautiful Dila .
