The Will of Young Master

Memories about Tisha

Hygiene ....

Litha didn't know what to say, Firza let alone.

The jewelry box is now in Firza's hands.

"Is there someone in your heart?"

Litha still did not budge. His eyes were also still looking straight ahead.

"I can't stop Brother from liking me, but I can't answer that Brother asks for an answer either."

"You hang my feelings, Litha."

"I don't mean it that way, sister, but it feels like I'm being selfish when I think of myself right now."

"You're asking me to wait for you?" ask Firza.

"If you ask me to wait for you I will wait for you even a thousand years, Litha" he continued, but in my heart alone.

Firza turned her head towards Litha, looking for an answer there in case Litha was silent.

"I also can't ban Brother, if I want to wait for me, I can't be sure of anything right now."

"good. But please answer one of my questions, Lith .. so I know what to do."

Litha this time turned her head towards Firza, their gaze meeting. There was a line of faint smiles on Litha's pretty face.

"Do you have the same feelings as me even if it's just a little?"

Litha did not reply, she simply raised her smile line even more upwards. That was quite the answer for Firza. At least he still has hope to pursue his girl.

The small black box containing the necklace that had been given to Litha was stored again into the pocket in her suit. Maybe not now she put it on Litha's neck, but she was sure that one day the necklace would belong to someone whose name was already attached there.

This is where Litha finally invites Firza to find out the reason that she has not been able to accept her declaration of love. A white-painted building, looks quiet but crowded in it.

"Yasa Dharma Mental Hospital?" firza asked in shock and confusion.

Litha was silent, she got out of the car and walked into the two-story building without answering Firza's curiosity.

"Good afternoon, Sister," Litha kindly greeted the sisters at the reception.

"Good afternoon as well as Miss Litha, it seems like today is not your scheduled visit?"

"Hehehe.. yes, but it's okay, if I want to see him now?"

"It's okay. I want to meet dr. Siska too?"

"No, Sus. I just want to see it."

"Alright, Miss Litha. Please."

The sister invited Litha, Firza's question has not been answered even though she observed the conversation between the two of them.

The girl walked leisurely to her destination, seeing that she was already very familiar with the situation in this building. Butwhy? Wh who? Firza was still wondering.

Litha entered a room, met briefly with the nurse there, chatted for a while and then she entered room 05.

Firza was astonished at the sight before her, an actual beautiful girl was seen sitting with her knees bent over the couch. His hair was long straight yet messy and his gaze was blank.

As soon as the girl saw Litha in the doorway, she called out, saying,

"Litha!!!"

The girl squandered, hugging and chattering nonstop at Litha.

"Litha, Dad came. Dad said he wanted to see you but you were so busy. You're in any race? Must be a champion, right? Brother is proud of you, Litha. Oh, yeah, have you eaten? Here --"

"Rigger ... Calm down, okay .. " said Litha to calm him down.

"Litha has met with Dad, but Dad is leaving again because Dad is busy too" Litha continued.

"Dad ... Dad's gone again? Whither? What's the old go?"

"No, just for a moment, Brother Tisha calm down, later Brother delivered the same dr. Siska's meeting Dad again."

"Hehehehehe .... "

The girl laughed by linking her two index fingers together, like a child who was happy to hear her father was coming home.

Litha's expression was ordinary, even looking very calm. He smiled patiently as the girl spoke senselessly because Firza knew Litha's father had died.

Now, Litha and Firza are sitting on a bench in the hospital's garden. Looking at the afternoon sky heading west.

"Nobody I've ever taken straight here, brother. Only Ninda and Grandma know."

"Who is he, Lith?"

"My sister. Sister Tisha, our most beautiful brother among the three of us, she is also very smart, she entered the Faculty of Medicine of the state university in the capital without tests. He was also very nice and very close to me.

Our family is very proud of him, the doctor in our family. But fate says something else. One night after practicing at his campus, on the way home to his boarding house, Kak Tisha was followed by his ex-girlfriend, there was an argument because the ex did not accept Kak Tisha's breakup. He raped Tisha's sister."

Until here, Litha's voice changed. There was a tightness in his heart that seemed to burst out. He continued his story.

"What Kak Tisha experienced made her very depressed, feeling worthless and disgusted with herself. Our parents who found out in City A were devastated until Dad went to the capital looking for the man who raped Kak Tisha and reported to the local police. I was in 3rd grade High School and I saw Mom crying every day."

Litha took a deep breath, her gaze increasingly glared at the increasingly late afternoon sky, preventing the glasses in her eyes from breaking.

"Dad said it would take Kak Tisha to a psychiatrist to check her psyche, dr. Siska's handling says she needs to be treated intensively here. Dad did it for the sake of healing Tisha. Savings, houses, shops, cars have been sold out to finance Kak Tisha's treatment and reports at the police station.

Over a month I struggled to find justice while taking care of Kak Tisha until Dad became a hit-and-run victim, not long ago Kak Tisha's rape case was closed by the police because of the lack of evidence as well as the hit-and-run incident Dad could not continue because we did not report it. We were shocked, sad, and confused.

Brother Tisha who was initially depressed but still sane, after knowing Dad died, his soul was more shaken, said dr. Siska's guilt towards Dad made her like this.

Therapy from dr. Siska who opens her subconscious is to take her to meet with Dad because her memory stuck at the time when Kak Tisha just graduated high school. Where Dad proudly put a congratulatory advertisement in the local newspaper for his son who was accepted at the Faculty of Medicine of the favorite state university in the Capital. The happiest memory for Tisha. Huhuhuhuhu...."

In the end, Litha was already unable to hold back her emotions. He cried sobbing. His memory of Tisha took away his peace of heart, robbed him of his confidence and eroded his optimism.

"Huhuhuhuhuhu .... Sister Tisha will only be able to recover if she can accept the departure of a father who is without saying goodbye huhuhuhuhu ......"

Firza hugged Litha under the orange glowing afternoon sky, giving Litha a backrest so she wouldn't collapse. He can understand how a young girl is supposed to dream for her dreams. However, he put down the dream for the sake of a family.

The family? What is Family to Firza? He who was born without knowing his father and mother, only knew the Big Lady and Rayyendra as his family.

Could she be like Litha putting her family above herself?
