THE WOUNDED EARTH

BRIGHT SPOT

After the city park, we immediately went home because the day had begun near noon.

The sun was quite stinging.

"Emak wants to take a break in the room...?"ask me.

"Yes, my mother's body is old. can not be tired a little.." replied the mother lirih.

I also told my mother to walk to her room.

"Emak wants to eat or drink again...?"

"Later on..."

She lay down and began to close her eyes to rest.

I left my mother's room to the front room.

"Hayo, what's the other...?"my words surprised Bani who was sitting and engrossed in replying to chat, out of whom.

"Again struggling to find love."his smile while still looking at the screen of his phone.

"Who the hell is...?"manya curious.

"There will be, and I will know."His secret.

I threw my weight on Beni's right side seat.

Beni glanced at me then kept her phone in her pants pocket.

"Sister,..."

"Hmmm.."

"Where is the problem with brother Ridwan...?"

I let out a long breath of heavy weight in my chest.

"That's Ban, until now I haven't been able to call his phone number."

"How is the news and the reason for the sudden disappearance..."

I looked at the ring on my ring finger, maybe it was worth nothing but the meaning there that meant so much to me.

"A patient brother, yes..."

I was only able to reply with a forced smile.

Drupal.dreet...

"Yat, later in the afternoon you have time...?"incoming message from Ronald.

"What time is bang...?"

"Around 19:00 after magrib aja, can...?"

"Can bang, where....?"

"At Cafe Cap*Ng which Jalan Simpang four is just, how...?"

"Ok, I'll go there..."

"I picked you up...?"

"No need to bang, the reason is later I have to also so all of you go out..."

"Ok, if so.."

I put the phone on the side.

My mind is trying to guess what Ronald will discuss later.

"Who's sister...?"asked Bani who was watching me earlier.

"Bang Ronald's.."

"Keep why does it look like someone is thinking...?"

"There's a problem at work...?"inquire.

"No, I just want to see you." I replied trying to cover up.

Not long ago came a message from Ririn as well.

"Yat, said Agus....you today off yes...?"

"Yes Rin, yesterday I was in full shift."

"Oh yes."

"Continue, so not this afternoon we go to the hospital again...?"ask him to make sure.

"You're not tired...?"reply me.

"No, for the sake of my sister-in-law's candidate." she replied with a hug emoticon.

"Then it'll be 17:00 in the afternoon, I'll wait in front of the store..."

"No need Yat, let me pick you up at home...?"

"Ok rin, ma'am much earlier huh..."

"You're my best friend."reply me with hugging emoticons and love.

"Lazy as a friend continues, up in dong...?"

"Keep wanting to be what...?"reply me with a curious emoticon.

"Sister-in-law is..."

"Yes, yeah.my sister-in-law..."

In her reply with dancing emoticons and lots of love.

I smiled at the message.

I lyrics towards Bani who is still engrossed with her phone.

"Bec..."

"Hmmm..."

"Ririn like her likes you..."

"You know." she answered briefly.

"Really...?"

"Eh, what's sis...? the answer looks unfocused.

"What did you say just now..?"the rest of it turned its attention towards me.

"Since when did you know that Ririn likes you...?"search me.

"It's a tadpole.."he muttered while scratching his head that does not itch.

"Tell me dong.."ask me with a cute face in front of her.

"Actually it's been almost a month now anyway, we started to hook up with her brother.."obviously while shy.

"According to sister, how is she ..?"

"Ririn's a good person, she likes to nolong anyone's friend.moreover the same I'm her sister-in-law's candidate.."my tease.

"I actually do not want to date also kak,pengen ta'aruf immediately married.."literangnya.

"Yes, that's better." I replied agreeing with his mindset.

"But for now it's not fully ready either, the savings are still lacking." he replied casually.

I also nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I went to the room first.want to rest..."

"Yup.." she answered briefly.

I lay this slanted body by hugging the favorite roll.

I looked again at the ring that was ringing sweetly on the finger, there was hope still hanging there.

"When that certainty will come.."my inner.

"Sister Ridwan, where are you...?"

"What really happened...?"my mumbling is smirking.

I closed my eyes and slowly floated carrying the flying soul to another realm.

Tok.dok...

"Sister, brother.wake up late in the afternoon.."Bani's beats and voice roused me from the sound.

I exited the room and glimpsed into the wall clock.

"Astaghfirullah, it's 5pm." - I muttered.

"Ban, Ririn has come...?"ask Bani who came out of the kitchen with a glass of water.

"So far from now, kasian children until thirst tuh because over time waiting.."his jokes.

"Say, I'm not going to take a bath and continue to pray ashar first yes..."

Bani simply answered by raising her thumb.

After bathing and performing the ashar prayer, I hurried out to meet Ririn.

"Older Rin...?"ask me while wearing my shoes.

"Not really, just half an hour." he replied shyly looking at Bani.

"You're leaving now or tomorrow...?"I said by putting on a face pretending to be judes.

"Eh yes, yes, I leave now.."quick reply.

Bani let go of us, as they threw each other a sweet smile.

"Hmmm who is kasmaran.."my tease on Ririn who was hounding me.

At first glance I see from the reflection of the rearview mirror of the motorbike, he smiled shyly.

When we arrived at the hospital, Sirin immediately parked the motorbike in the parking area.

"Well, here when I see Ridwan's brother." - Ririn.

We continued to walk into the hospital lobby.

On the long benches available, many people were sitting around probably waiting for the next hour, I thought.

We also took the most corner seats to be more comfortable paying attention to the people who came in and out.

"What do you want to drink...?"ririn asked to break my attention.

"Cold mineral water is Rin." I asked.

"OK, wait a minute ya.."the reply then passed to the freezer that provides drinks.

"Now drink it.."

"Ma love Rin.." Welcome me.

It's been almost 2 hours we've been sitting here, and I've been watching everyone who's been in and out of the hospital.

While Ririn was engrossed with her phone, sometimes while smiling herself.

"Rin, I'll stay for a while, go to the toilet." said I rushed to the public toilet on the left side of our seat.

Just as I walked out of the toilet door, Kirin who was suddenly standing in front of me instantly pulled my wrist.

"Eh.uh..Rin, what's the matter.." I'm still a little surprised.

"Sister Ridwan, That.. cepetan.."his voice sounded gnawing.

I also followed Ririn's quick footsteps, more precisely half-run.

We headed to the car park.

Ririn frowned, I also swept my eyes across the parking area.

"You have gone, Yat,."he said weakly because of the breath that was tired of running.

"You sure...?"ask me to make sure.

"It's 100% sure%."

"When you went to the toilet, I heard Ridwan's voice..."

"I was looking for where his voice came from.."

"It turns out he's on the phone walking towards this parking lot."

"I ran after her, I called her name, she glimpsed back looking for the voice of who called her..."

"Unfortunately my steps were blocked by a new ambulance that came to bring patients."

"Therefore I went back inside, looking for you in the toilet, let's chase him.."his light was at length.

I was silent in a thousand languages, there was a sense in my heart that was hard for me to understand.

"We go home to Rin.." I said weakly.

Ririn looked at me with a sad looking face as well.

"Don't despair Yat, you.I mean we have to find certainty about the problem you're facing now."

"For your feelings don't keep hanging like this.."

"Oh yeah, wait a minute.."cut it.

Ririn left me alone in the motor park area.

Fifteen minutes have passed.

I saw him running towards me.

"Nih .." he said as he thrust out a piece of paper.

"Ridwan Firdaus, son of the mining magnate Firdaus Rahman."

I was shocked to hear the words that had just come out of his lips.

"So I tried to find out from the officer in front of it.."he pointed.

"Maybe you're wrong, rin," I refute.

"Later we come to this address, is he really the person we are looking for or not." he said firmly.

"Now let's go home first."he said.

I can only nod.

Along the way my heart feels worried, is it true that brother Ridwan is the son of a businessman...?

But why did she never tell me...?

Is he deliberately trying to play with my feelings...?
