The LOVE Of Guardian's

Chapter 32. Now Someone is Waiting to Come Home

After the meeting, all the guests went straight home. Kenanga's family has also returned home. No exception Rafa, Papa Kenanga also had to catch a flight.

Meilani has asked him to drop Rafa off, but Kenanga refuses. He thought his business today with the father was done. So Rafa left with disappointment in his heart.

Kenanga and Alfin plan to go straight home. But Alena told him to gather first. Be Kenanga at lunch with her new family.

After lunch, Kenanga chose to be alone in the garden behind Alfin's house. Alena told him to rest.

"What are you thinking?" chirps Kansha coming from behind Kenanga.

Kenanga turned her head as Kansha stood beside her. He then straightened his eyes again.

"Alfin where?" ask Kansha again.

"With her sister." answered Kenanga.

"Ah right, Alan dragged her into the room. Looks like he's going to be lectured or tutors on marriage." Kansha said.

"How old are you?" ask Kenanga suddenly.

Kansha seemed surprised for a moment and smiled broadly, "This is the first time you take the initiative to ask." she exclaimed happily. Kenanga just kept quiet. He didn't understand why Kansha was so happy.

"By the way he's only two months old. It's a little girl." continued Kansha.

Kenanga just nodded.

"Oh yeah Kenanga, I've heard what happened to you and your papa" Kansha said.

Kenanga looked up, "What do you mean?"

"I mean about your quarrel with your papa. I heard it from Alan. Ever since she got married, she's been very chatty and gossiping all the time." explains Kansha hurriedly. Kenanga thinks that Kansha is much more chatty.

"Oh." replied Kenanga indifferently.

"I don't know if you've heard this story from Alfin or not. But we have the same concept of problems" Kansha said.

"Your parents hate you and I hate you" said Kenanga.

Kansha was a bit jolted but she came back ordinary. "Well, it's true. But it's basically the same. Arguments with parents that the cause starts from the loss of our loved ones.

"If I could tell a little story. You know who my parents are?"

Kenanga nodded, "Williams."

"really. You know I'm not their real son, right?"

Kenanga nodded back.

"It is public consumption. In my profile there is even such a description, but the most important thing is that I have had a severe conflict with them. I was accused of murdering their daughter who was none other than my sister as a child. Since then, I was hated and even kicked out of the house. But the magic seemed to come at the most difficult time, the plane I was on suddenly crashed. All the passengers died except me and Alan. I didn't think my life would be that tragic. Suddenly my life started to improve. Williams apologized to me for the misunderstanding and we're finally back as a whole family" Kansha said.

Kenanga remained silent. Kansha continued her words.

"What I'm trying to say is that you can hate or hate anyone, but never both of your parents. In your eyes, maybe your father is a jerk you'd love to get out of your life. But if you can be more positive, whatever the problem and how big the mistake, he's still your parents.

"I just don't want you to regret it. Everything that starts from evil will have tragic results. So while you can see each other, try to sit down and talk."

Kenanga. His eyes were still staring straight at the clear water of the pond. Kansha stared at Kenanga from the side.

"You know." Kenanga began to speak, "Not all humans are the same. You said we were the same. Both were lonely, ever sad and ever angry. But you're wrong.

Then Kenanga looked at Kansha, "While there are more severe problems waiting for me because of my behavior, my hatred for her will remain. And I'll never regret it at all." Kenanga said.

Kenanga turned around to leave.

Kansha turned her back, "Congratulations on your marriage. I hope Alfin can bring change for you." he exclaimed.

Kenanga was silent hearing that. But finally back to walking away.

Kansha could only smile a little.

"You're the same as me, Kenanga" she said, staring at Kenanga's back further away.

***

Kenanga arrived at the living room. Alfin, Alena and Alan were waiting for him.

"Eh, where's my wife?" alan asked in a frown.

"Here." chirped Kansha from behind. He approached Alan.

"Bun, we go home first." said Alfin.

"Be careful on the road. If there's anything call ya." said Alena.

Alena then looked at Kenanga, she took Kenanga's hand and held it gently.

"Mother hasn't said. Welcome to our family. I hope you are comfortable here" he said.

I was once again overwhelmed by Alena.

"Thank you mother." said Kenanga.

Alena smiled. "Say your mother that Alfin's naughty. He's a disobedient boy. You just jeweled his ears, he's sensitive in that part." he said.

"Mother.." decak Alfin.

Kenanga smiled faintly, "Good bun."

Alena hugged her new daughter-in-law. And again, Kenanga felt at peace. Mother like to have magical power that makes everyone around her comfortable.

After quite a while, Alena let go of her embrace.

"Yes, be careful. Alfin, be careful driving. And don't make trouble for Kenanga." recalls Alena.

"Yes mother." said Alfin.

Alfin then took his suitcase, these are the rest of his clothes that have not been taken in this house. Alfin was about to bring all his clothes and leave only two to three sets here.

"We're saying goodbye, bun, mas, mbak. Greetings to dad. Assalamu'alaikum." Alfin followed Kenanga.

"Waalaikum salam." they said simultaneously.

***

After driving for an hour filled with silence, Alfin's car arrived at the apartment building.

The plan of the two of them was that they would stay in Alfin's apartment. Although this is only an arranged marriage but they are legal and must stay one roof. Be Alfin decided to stay in his house only because the apartment that Kenanga occupied there was Siska. And Siska will stay there alone.

They entered Alfin's apartment. This is the first time Kenanga has come in here. He had only ever seen her before the door.

Alfin's apartment was all filled with luxury items. The interior is very elegant.

"This is the living room. No room with the kitchen. Mother said I should use a bulkhead but because I rarely cook so I guess there is no need." explained Alfin.

Kenanga circulated around him. He was then stunned at a place he had once seen there was a picture frame there. But now in front of that narrow wall, there was only an urn.

Where's that picture frame? yanga Mumm.

Alfin then took Kenanga to the kitchen.

"I rarely cook so it looks clean. The leaky pipe came from the sink" Alfin said.

Alfin opened the refrigerator. He took a bottle of water and handed it to Kenanga.

"Thank you" said Kenanga, who received the bottle and then took a small nudge.

"Then we continue to look at your room" said Alfin. Kenanga.

Alfin takes Kenanga to a room with a white teak door. And as soon as it opened, a luxurious room was plastered in front of them.

"I hear you prefer neutral colors like black and brown. At first I wanted to decorate it a little more feminine, but Siska said...."

Kenanga was still watching her new room. He walked into the room followed by Alfin who was looking at him worriedly.

"Didn't my sister like it?" ask Alfin carefully.

"Like." said Kenanga briefly.

"Ah, thank goodness." he sighs in relief.

Kenanga then turned to Alfin, "We're not going to room?" tanyakanya.

Alfin gasped then immediately replied, "For this, I think we should have our own rooms first."

"Why?"

Alfin became nervous to be stared at like that, "I thought about what you said if we should get to know each other. And as a friend, I think this is a wise arrangement" he replied in a cautious tone.

"Then what if your parents or anyone knows we're not in the room?"

"On that..." Alfin scratched his head, "I haven't thought about it that far" he admitted.

"No problem. I'll lock this room every time I go out so your parents especially can't get in" Kenanga said.

Alfin immediately nodded in agreement, "Thank you brother." he said in relief.

"I think there's enough of the tour. I want to rest can I?"

Alfin nodded, "Rest. Later for other things we talk about next time."

Kenanga agreed. So Alfin came out of Kenanga's room after closing the door.

After Alfin died, Kenanga settled herself in her new bed. He rubbed the soft sheets. The woman's mind was filled with various thoughts.

And what he cares most about now is how his days are going to be? His status has changed, will he also change? What's he supposed to do? Can he live with Alfin when there is no love between them?

Kenanga sighed harshly. No matter how hard he looked for answers to all those questions, he never managed to answer any of them.

***

Kenanga was asleep all afternoon. He woke up when he heard a knock on the door.

Tok

"Sister Anggi?"call Alfin from the outside.

Kenanga got out of her bed and walked up to the door. He's unlocked.

"Oh, is brother hungry? I'll cook dinner." said Alfin.

"What time is this?" tanya Kenanga was still half sleepy.

Alfin glanced at his watch, "Now at six in the afternoon. You must have just woken up, right?" guess Alfin's on target.

Kenanga.

"If so, you pray and in the meantime I will cook. Is there food you like and dislike? Or does your sister have an allergy to certain foods?"

Kenanga shook her hands and yawned softly, "No." she replied.

"Then I'll cook now. I'll call you when it's over."

Alfin finally left while Kenanga returned to her room. He had to rush to pray before his time was up.

***

Half an hour later, the starving Kenanga decided to approach Alfin who was in the kitchen.

"Let's!" cryot Alfin.

Kenanga who had just exited the room immediately ran over. He approached Alfin in a hurry but was stunned to find Alfin climbing onto the pantry.

"What are you doing?" ask Kenanga.

"There's a cockroach." replied Alfin in fear.

Kenanga glanced at the cockroach that Alfin meant. Then looked strangely at Alfin.

"You're afraid of cockroaches?" tanyanya did not believe.

Alfin nodded immediately.

"You are a man and you are an adult. How can you be afraid of cockroaches?" ask Kenanga did not think.

Kenanga took a slow breath, trying to hold back the laughter.

"Down." he said.

Alfin shook his head loudly.

"Down, Fin. You can fall." said Kenanga firmly.

Alfin still shook his head.

Kenanga sighed slowly. He took a piece of tissue and took the cockroach with a tissue.

"Here, come down now."

"Waste first." said Alfin pointing to the cockroach.

Kenanga nodded, she threw the tissue into the trash.

"It has. Can you come down now?" ask Kenanga lazily.

Alfin nodded slowly. He finally came down from the pantry.

Kenanga folded her hands over her chest, "Unexpectedly, this cool doctor was afraid of cockroaches." yelled Kenanga.

Alfin cleared his throat in embarrassment, "Sa-I have a reason." Kenanga raised one eyebrow.

"When I was a kid, I had a fight with Mas Alan. And he's a really outrageous brother. Just because I broke his toy, he locked me in a barn full of cockroaches." Alfin explained. Come to think of it, he was back upset because of that incident.

"Didn't you volunteer a few times? Then how can you stand it when you're afraid of cockroaches."

"Staying a volunteer has nothing to do with cockroaches. After all I was always ready for cockroach exterminator drugs." Alfin said ended with a big smile.

Kenanga just sighed softly, "You're done?" tanyanya diverted the conversation.

Alfin nodded then shook his head. Kenanga frowned confusedly.

"The soup is ready but I haven't seasoned it yet. I also have to fry the fish. If only there had been no cockroach incident, it would have been sorted out of the way." - grunted.

"Who told you to be so afraid of cockroaches." said Kenanga. He stared at the frying pan that was already filled with cooking oil. "I help. You just season the soup." said Kenanga as she rolled up her sleeves.

"Seriously?" ask Alfin.

Kenanga.

"Never cook?" ask Alfin. Because Kenanga's face does not seem to indicate that the owner has ever cooked. Not to mention the flour flood incident.

"No." answered Kenanga honestly. "But I can learn it quickly. Just tell me how." he continued flatly.

"No need to brother. Frying fish should be full of caution. I'm afraid my sister's splashed with oil." Alfin said.

"You doubt me?" ask Kenanga with narrowed eyes.

Alfin was silent for a moment then nodded. He prefers to be honest.

Kenanga raised her face. "I'll give it a try." press Kenanga stared intently at Alfin.

Then Kenanga directly lit the stove. After making sure the oil was hot, he immediately put the fish on the pan.

The sound of oil fried with fish sounded loud. Kenanga looked overwhelmed at that moment.

"Aw." ringisnya when his hands splashed with oil.

Alfin who had been silent immediately rushed to turn off the stove. He brought Kenanga to the front of the sink.

"I told you, no need. Look, brother really splashed with oil." Alfin scolded.

The man wordlessly took the ointment from one of the drawers. Alfin painstakingly treated the back of Kenanga's injured hand.

"Don't hit the water" he said, then put the ointment back into place.

Kenanga noticed Alfin and how agile the man was when dealing with his wounds.

"Thank you." said Kenanga.

Alfin nodded his head.

"So, wait in the room. Let me do the cooking. I'll call you when you're ready."

Kenanga seemed to be protesting but Alfin stopped her. "Don't argue." he insisted.

Kenanga pissed off. The woman without a word immediately left. Alfin sighed at leg. He went back to the front of the stove and continued cooking.

***

The next morning, Alfin stood firmly in front of the kitchen. Her clothes are unusual. He wears a black jumpsuit with a white shirt inside and also wears a mask.

sret

Alfin suddenly sprayed a medicine around the kitchen. White smoke instantly spread. It's an insect repellent.

After the kitchen, Alfin also sprayed it throughout the living room and even the toilet.

After finishing up, Alfin went into his room to do something similar.

On the other hand, Kenanga had just woken up. He coughed as he inhaled a pungent smell that was out of nowhere.

Kenanga exited the room while covering her nose. He wondered where this smell came from.

But once out of the room, Kenanga coughed louder.

"Alfin! Alfie!"call him.

Alfin came out of his room with the same look as before. His eyes widened when he realized Kenanga was wearing nothing to cover her nose. Alfin immediately took the mask from the room and put it on Kenanga.

"What the fuck?!" yangka.

"Cover your nose. It smells a bit stinging." replied Alfin.

"What are you really doing?" ask Kenanga annoyed.

"It's an insect repellent. Yesterday's incident made me realize that there are still cockroaches in this house. So I sprayed drugs all over the house to get rid of them."

Kenanga was at a loss for words.

"But not too much like this. You know, I almost died of poisoning from that drug!"

"Sorry brother. I really hate cockroaches. I can't sleep in peace at the thought of cockroaches still breeding in this house. Please understand." ask Alfin to explain.

Kenanga let out a slow voice, "When will this smell go away?" ask Kenanga.

"In the description wait ten minutes." replied Alfin.

Drrt

Kenanga did not reply to Alfin's words. He chose to receive a phone call.

"Hello."

"....."

Kenanga's eyes rounded for a moment.

"Well, I'll be there soon" he said, then closed the phone.

"Is there something?" ask Alfin.

"I go to headquarters first." said Kenanga straight out of the house.

"Sister, at least wear-" Alfin stopped his speech when the door was closed by Kenanga.

***

"So we're leaving in ten minutes. And during those ten minutes, take the time to prepare clothes and say goodbye to the family." explained Bagas.

Angga, Panji, Dani, Kenanga and Riko nodded.

"Please disperse." close Bagas.

"Lettan, let's have breakfast together." take Panji over to Kenanga's seat.

"Can't, the lieutenant has to go home." Angga interrupted.

"Why?" ask Panji.

"Of course to say goodbye." Angga replied again.

"To whom? Isn't Danjen and his wife still on vacation?" ask Dani.

Kenanga stared in warning at Angga. Little grimacing goose.

"I'm going to bring some clothes." replied Kenanga.

Angga nodded immediately.

"Yes already. Then I'll go first. Yuk Dani." take Panji. Then they both left.

"We go first." Bagas and Riko also leave.

"Lettan, quickly go home and say goodbye" said Angga after the others died.

"For what?" ask Kenanga indifferently.

"You're not what you used to be. Now someone is waiting for your news and return. Don't let him wonder for himself." Angga explained.

"Moreover, we also do not know when to go home. What if when we go home we're gone? Then that person will feel many times more sad." he continued.

Kenanga fell silent at the long explanation of Angga.

"I'm home." said Kenanga suddenly.

"Eh Lieutenant, I'm not done yet." prevent Angga.

Kenanga sighed softly, "What else?"

"Please listen to my words. And where are you going home?"

"You think?" kenanga Reply.

***

Alfin was reading a book. The look has been changed with loose pants and sweeter.

"Alfin." call Kenanga when she's standing before Alfin.

Alfin closed the book, "It's over?"

"There's something I want to tell you" Kenanga said.

"So serious. What's up?"

"I'll go on duty."

"What?" Alfin surprised.

"I'll be home when but I have to say goodbye to you. You won't mind, will you?"

"Why should I mind? This is the duty and duty of my brother. But why so suddenly?"

"I can't tell you that. The point is, will you wait for me to come home?" ask Kenanga.

Alfin was silent at the question.

"I haven't had anyone to talk to. The news of my departure and my return was known only to my colleagues. But now it's different. I've got you that I have to tell you." Kenanga explained.

Kenanga continued when no answer was heard from Alfin. He doesn't know what to explain exactly. "And this is a real picture of our work. I know it's our day off but the affairs of state are the most urgent thing. I just want you-"

"I'll wait." cut Alfin.

Kenanga flinched, "What?" he doesn't believe.

"I'll wait for brother to come home." Alfin repeated. Kenanga is still frozen.

"So go, brother. I will pray for your safety." continued Alfin with a smile.

Kenanga was surprised that Alfin would say yes to her Question. He also quite did not believe that there would be someone waiting for him to come home.
