The Twins Pursue Love

What Abah Means

"Ma, Pa?!" Bara instantly rose from his seat as Anggi and Sky came with a grim and sad face.

Anggi immediately hugged Bara and cried on his son's chest.

"Ma?!" bara muttered confused and curious.

Anggi did not answer. He kept sobbing.

"Pa?" Bara's eyes moved to look at the sky for an explanation.

The sky took a deep breath and swallowed its saliva before speaking up.

"Manyu, he...." The sky stopped his words as he sounded a step closer to them.

Everyone looked towards the two people who had come in a hurry. Bagas seemed to swing his steps quickly accompanied by Camelia who also rushed next to him with teary eyes.

'Master, how?!" Bagas immediately asked after saying his greetings.

"She.he..it's okay, right?" Camelia's voice trembled anxiously.

Yasmin who had just sat down, got up and hugged Camelia.

"He won't do anything as long as you pray for him to be okay." she whispered.

Camelia immediately returned Yasmine's embrace. The hard-earned defense he built eventually collapsed as well. Camelia sobbed in the arms of her future sister-in-law.

A few days later.

In a white room, a young man sat staring out the window. He was so focused that he ignored the arrival of someone into his room.

"Are you ready to go home?" Bara approaching.

The young man who was none other than Banyu, turned his head without a sound. His hand grabbed the small stick in front of him then stood up and stepped.

"Let me help you!" Bara grabbed Banyu's hand.

"Stop!! Don't pity me! I can do it myself." snapped Banyu violently.

"Look, I just want to help you." Low sounding coals.

A cynical smile full of pain rose on Banyu's thin lips.

"I don't need." Banyu then continued his steps. The little stick in his hand became his guide and guide.

Bara sighed, his jaw hardened and his hands clenched. He was not angry but saw the state of his twin brother who suffered because of an accident, making him feel pain.

Brug.

Bara was shocked when he saw Banyu who was stepping suddenly fell because he was hit by a child who was chasing in the hospital corridor.

The fallen Banyu tried to find his wand by fumbling around it.

Bara approached and tried to pull Banyu up.

'Detach!! l" Banyu brushed off Bara's hand. He really did not want to accept the help of Bara.

But Bara is not his name if he relented, he continued to force to help Banyu until there was tension between the two. Many times Banyu pushed Bara away.

'Don't show that pity. I don't need it!" Banyu cynical.

"Whatever. I just kept my promise to Mom to take care of you. Whether you want it or not is none of my business." Bara pulled Banyu back. Banyu continued to fight.

The two twin brothers were preoccupied with their feud without realizing there was a pair of eyes staring at the two with tears.

"Why not go near him?" Wiena patted Camelia on the shoulder who had been watching Bara and Banyu.

"For what? To be expelled again?" the sound of Camelia.

"So that's how deep your love is?" ejek Wiena's.

"You doubted me?"

Wiena just shrugged her shoulders as the answer.

"I wanted so much to approach her, help her, take care of her, be her eyes, yet something was blocking my intention. I'm nothing. We're not married." Camelia shrunk her tears.

"Then marry her!"

"You're nuts. Only men can marry women, because they say ijab. I can where I can." Camelia's voice sounded desperate.

Wiena seemed to think, "I'll ask my husband. Maybe he has the answer. No, don't be sad. He just couldn't accept his situation. I'm sure he'll be back the way he was." Wiena patted Camelia on the shoulder again to encourage her little friend.

"You think so?"

Wiena nodded. "I'm sure. Aunty Anggi's teachings and the knowledge he got from pesantren that will make him aware later. He was only shocked and could not yet accept this reality that he thought was so bitter."

"Yes, hopefully. I won't give up either. I'll keep trying how I can restore her sight again." Camelia's face was full of excitement.

"That's new spirit. I like you like this. Lucky my cousin got your love. If he's wasting you, it's because of his stupidity. Come on, let's get some work! The man also left earlier. Why are we still here."

Camelia forced a smile. They then stepped out of the place.

Haji Asnawi was sitting on the terrace with his wife.

"Camelia hasn't come home yet?"

"Yet, Bah. Maybe soon." replied his wife while thrusting the drink into her husband's hand.

Haji Asnawi drank the coffee his wife gave him and returned the cup to the woman who patiently served him.

"Does he still think about that young man?"

Nyai Asnawi smiled. "Well, we have to understand. They're almost a proposal. In Camelia's heart was already the name Banyu. It's hard to forget."

"Such a crybaby young man does not deserve the love of my daughter."

"Well." very soft voice Nyai Asnawi.

"Assalamualaik."

Camelia's arrived.

"Getishalight."

Camelia went straight to her parents and kissed their hands.

"Lia come in first, um, abah."

Not yet had time to step on Camelia's feet, Haji Asnawi stopped her.

"Lia, you want to talk. Sit down!"

Camelia sat down without refuting.

"How is he doing?" Ask Haji Asnawi directly.

Though without naming her, Camelia knew who her brother was asking.

"Today he came home" he replied shortly.

Haji Asnawi who can not see, does not know cloudy on the face of Camelia, different from Uma.

Uma stroked Camelia's hand with a smile.

"Is he still unable to accept his blindness?" haji Asnawi asked.

"Yes, Bah." said Camelia.

"Then you?"

"Lia?!"

"Yes. Can you accept her situation?"

"Lia can bah." Camelia answered while looking down sad.

"Because what? Poor thing?"

Camelia looked up, "Not Bah."

"Because of love? You know that love is only a decoration of the world. Our hearts are not in our power. Maybe now you still feel that love, but can you guarantee that if he continues in this condition, you can survive?"

"Lia.."

"Are you sure your frustration will be easily cured?"

"Change, Lia.."

"Think carefully. Don't make decisions because of feelings."

"Yes, Bah. Lia knows."

Uma looked at her daughter's pity.

"Lia, I mean good. We just want the best.Make Lia. Abah and Uma would not hinder Lia's desire if it was based on right thinking. Not a momentary feeling."

"Change, Uma. No matter how deep Lia's love is, isn't it free if she doesn't want to receive it? Lia will not drown in Lia's feelings. Abah and Uma don't worry."

Haji Asnawi smiled faintly, "But if indeed the feeling in your heart is already very deep, you must know what to do?"

Camelia looked confused.

"I mean Abah?"

"Haaahhh it's late afternoon. Abah went to the mosque. Uma help me get ready!"

"Good, Bah."

Uma stood up and pushed her husband into the house. Camelia looked puzzledly at the two parents.

*What does Abah mean? She was like asking me to stay away, and now, what mak*sud is
