To You 2 (Greatest Love)
25. My Love



"As for Vena, I'll tell you later, but now we have to focus on our problems" There are no other thoughts in Rival's heart other than his son and Yara.


***


Because yesterday was past Maghrib, the funeral of the son of Rival and Yara was buried this morning.


"You don't go on deck, your condition won't allow it"


"I want to deliver my son one last time" Yara pleaded not to cry in front of Rival and Rival knew how hard Yara tried.


--------


Yara again hysterically looked at the tiny baby covered in white cloth. Everything was not yet one hundred percent perfect, but that face was a clear fusion of Yara's face as well as Rival's. Yara's roar finally stopped until her hands became cold. Rival also held back crying until his own chest felt tight, he did not want Yara weakened to see him sad too.


"You won't be strong there deck. Don't come!" pinta Rival once again.


"Would you bury our child??" yara's question pierced strongly Rival's feelings. Rival hugged his wife.


"Yes deck, actually mas can not face all this. But I believe God gave us all this because he will replace it with something better later. Right now you're the source of the power of the mas" Rival's kiss landed warmly on Yara's cheek.


--------


Rival walked around holding his little baby. It felt like he was not crying but finally a King Cobra shed his tears. Rival's trembling hands put his daughter into the grave, and then closed his daughter's meal.


Yara had not been able to see her little baby buried there, she hugged the tomb. Rival was also devastated to embrace Yara from behind. Yara's cry grew louder and louder.


"He was calm and happy there. Just pray that we can meet him later" Tears grimly Yara made anyone who heard felt unbearable. Yara weakened in Rival's embrace.


***


Yara was able to sleep in the middle of a pitch-black night without the moon and stars up there. Rival walked out of the room with shaky steps. This day he felt very tired and also a lot of burden on the mind that he carried.


Rival chose to sit behind his house. Rival sat down with his eyes closed. No one knows what he feels right now. Maybe only he and God know. Her tears were dripping and sobbing, allowed herself to spill all the sadness in her heart.


O Allah, if in this life I can choose, I want to meet Yaraku directly and do not want to know Larasati. The memory of Larasati almost made me lose Yara.


Rival's hands clenched firmly, he continued to cry until his heart was relieved. After nearly an hour of solitude, Rival went into the room and threw himself into a blanket with Yara.


Sensed by Yara, Rival who had no movement with normal breathing indicates Rival had fallen asleep. Yara turned her head around watching Rival's face fixedly. There was a clear thread of tears dripping in Rival's sleep.


I don't know how heavy the burden is. Can't measure how sad you are and can't figure out how deep it hurts in your heart, but I believe that I didn't choose you wrong to be my husband.


Yara approached to kiss the side of Rival's lips, already calmer her husband in his sleep at this time.

Zein sleeps in his mess room still remembering his meeting with Mutia yesterday and Zein chose to go home this morning because it will follow the funeral of Yara's son.


The flashback


"Have not cried again deck, the boy Khan had a father" Zein told Mutia who was crying face down in her dorm room.


Indeed, ever since Zein settled in his current task force, Zein asked Mutia to stay at the boarding house rather than in an orphanage. It was unexpected that Zein's decision brought a new story for the two of them. Zein darkened her eyes and did so to Mutia.


"I don't want to be embarrassed" Mutia cried in her anxiety.


"I'll marry you. Want when? Now?" zein said seriously.


"I want a legitimate child, I want to throw this child away"


"What did you say??? After we make a mistake.You want to run away from the responsibility as a parent???" Zein's tone rose in disbelief with Mutia's words.


"Mas who forced me and didn't want to know" Mutia's thoughts were very chaotic at this moment.


"Yes yes.I was wrong, but our son was not on the wrong deck. Do you really have the heart to throw it away" Zein's voice weakened in defeat because it was Zein who had forced Mutia.


"Papa and Mama already know your pregnancy but we have to wait a while because the condition of Yara's sister is still not better" Mutia was very anxious about the situation so complicated at this time.
