UNABLE TO FORGET YOU

DISILLUSIONED

Zeehan gave a rude snort, it had been almost 3 hours he waited for Lenka at the dock. But the lover who was waiting did not come.

"Lenka, why don't you come?" zeehan's face seemed to have turned irritated.

Zeehan got on his motorcycle.  At high speed, Zeehan drove his second-wheeled vehicle towards Lenka's house.

The Budi Santoso Family's official home is deserted.  Zeehan approached the door of the house and knocked slowly.

"Excuse me, Lenka...! Lenka..!"'s...!" zeehan shouted, but there was no word. The house is deserted now.

"Who are you looking for, son?" ask a neighbor woman Lenka out of her house.

"Where's Mr Budi's family Tan?" zeehan asked, in a panicked voice.

"Who are you?" ask the woman, curious.

"I'm Lenka's friend" replied Zeehan

"lho, you don't know, Mr. Budi and his family have returned to Jakarta, last night," said the woman.

"Last night? Last night we still met at the school event, Auntie!" zeehan said knitting his brows.

"Yes, they left after the event, he said their plane left at 06:00 a.m,"

His word again.

"Then, thank you Auntie, excuse me!" Zeehan put his foot straight, towards his butututu bike.

"Lenka, why don't you tell me that you're leaving now? How hard it is to contact me," Zeehan was disappointed.

The guy tries to contact Lenka with his phone, but Lenka's number is off.  Zeehan breathed in annoyance.

"What's wrong with you, Lenka? Why are you behaving like this, when we are all right, then" Zeehan lamented.

Zeehan returned to his home, Sherly welcoming him on the doorstep, with a flirtatious smile.

"From anywhere Han, your mother from earlier nanyain," asked Sherly with a seductive gesture of her body.

"What's the matter, brother?" zeehan asked, looking at the woman.

"Ask it yourself?"  Zeehan walks into her mother's room by passing Sherly and tries not to touch her.

"My mom, what's wrong?" ask Zeehan.

"Zeehan, do you really want to go to Jakarta?".asked the mother.

"Yes, why Mom?"

"When you go to Jakarta, who is your mother with? How's your college tuition going?"

"I'm gonna get a scholarship?"

"Yes, but you also need a fee to go to Jakarta, the cost of the plane, rent a boarding,"

Zeehan was silent, he did not have the cost to go to Jakarta at this time.  Then if Zeehan leaves, who will take care of his mother.

Zeehan drew his heavy breath.

"Then, what should I do, Mom? I should be able to go to college, I'll work later in Jakarta, I'll send mom some money, if I'm already working,"

"Zeehan, if you had talked to Sherly's parents, they wanted to lend money for your children to go to Jakarta, but the condition is that you have to marry Sherly" said her mother, Zeehan looked at her mother in disbelief. Then looked towards Sherly who was standing in front of the door holding her hands together on her chest.

Smiling sweetly at him.

"Mom, I'm not getting married yet?" zeehan refused.

"This wedding is just to cover up Sherly's family's disgrace, son.  You married Sherly, until the child Sherly was born with. And admit that the child is your child" said the mother.

"What kind of marriage is that? I don't want to, Mom!"

"Zeehan, I beg you, help me! My lover is gone, she does not want to marry me, now I am 3 months pregnant, if no one wants to marry me, my son will be born without a father," Sherly sat on her knees in front of Zeehan. Zeehan.

"Yes son, pity Sherly.Mom was once in Sherly's position, and you know for yourself, what you experienced," said Ms. Ratna.

Zeehan sat on the side of his mother's bed. On the one hand, she has pity on Sherly, but on the other hand, she does not want to get married at a young age.  Sherly is five years older than Zeehan.  Her face was sweet, and she was pure white.  Sherly's parents are

the owner of several villas and inns around the beach resort of Wane.  They are the richest people in their village.

"If you go to college in Jakarta, I promise I'll take care of your mother here" Sherly said.

"If I were to marry, I might, but to support you, I can't afford Sherly's sister" Zeehan said.

"I know, I just need a confession for my son, at least if my son is born, he's got a father on his birth certificate" Sherly said.

"Well, ..but I won't touch you, Sherly!" zeehan.  The woman nodded in agreement, but in her heart was a little disappointed.

Zeehan threw his body rough on the bed.  His heart was agitated, his disappointment towards Lenka who had left without any news, had not disappeared from his heart.

"You're playing me on purpose, Lenka?" Zeehan murmured, looking at the nanar towards the ceiling of the room.

"I've loved you too deeply, but you've left me, maybe you feel like I don't deserve to be with you,"

For the umpteenth time Zeehan tried to contact Lenka, but the number using Lenka could not be reached.

""Are you doing this on purpose, Lenka? You're really driving me crazy" Zeehan opened his cell phone gallery.  Staring at a portrait of their togetherness in a tree house.

Zeehan closed his eyes for a moment, but Lenka's shadow could not be lost from his memory.

"Arrghs....Lenka!" zeehan shouted in frustration.

********

Zeehan finally accepts a marriage agreement with Sherly.  He is determined to reach his goals and get out of the poverty line, which has been squeezing his family for years. He wanted to prove that he was able to realize his dream of becoming a doctor.

After receiving Sherly's request, Sherly's parents come to talk about their marriage agreement.  If Zeehan marries Sherly, they will finance all of Zeehan's needs during his time in Jakarta. And Zeehan's mother, Ratna, they'll take good care of her.

"Sir Edo, I will marry Sherly's sister, but I can't stay together, because I'm too young to get married, so I hope you all understand" Zeehan said.

"Alright, no problem Zeehan, now maybe not, who knows next time, you change your mind," said Mr. Edo smiling.

"Your wedding will be held 1 month from now, I want to have a big party to celebrate your wedding" said Mr. Edo sumringah.

News of Zeehan and Sherly's marriage reaches Anita and Davina's ears, they encounter Zeehan, out of curiosity.

"Han, you really want to marry Sherly's sister?" ask Anita.

"Well, why, An?"

"No, I'm just wondering, Lo is dating Lenka, but she's married to Sherly, and what about Lenka,"

"Lenka go An!" zeehan replied.

"Go? Go where?"

"The neighbors said, they've returned to Jakarta after a good night at our school, I feel weird An! Why did Lenka leave so suddenly and give me no news?"

"That night he said nothing to you?' ask Davina.

"No, she just cried, and said goodbye" Zeehan recalled.

Anita and Davina looked at each other.  The two tried calling Lenka's number, but the result was the same, the number was off.

"Because of that,.Do you accept Brother Sherly's family proposal?" ask Anita again.

"I married Brother Sherly, just because of the agreement, they will finance my college, and take care of my mother, if I go to Jakarta later," said Zeehan sadly.

"Then, what do they expect from Lo?" ask Davina.

"But don't tell anyone! I'm only going to marry Sherly until the child in her womb is born" Zeehan half-whispered.

Anita and Davina gawked in disbelief.

"Yes, Zeehan, we can't help Lo, if it's like this, hopefully Lo can achieve the ideals that Lo dreams of!" said Anita.

"Thank you Anita, Davina!" zeehan said sincerely.

The wedding of Zeehan and Lenka took place at the Village Hall, the Sherly Family invited all the villagers and their relations from the city.

Sherly looks happy because she can marry Zeehan who has a handsome face like a prince from fairy tales in classic stories. Unlike Zeehan, the man just smiled forced to greet the guests who came at their wedding.

"I'm sorry Lenka, I was forced to betray our love" Zeehan said.

Sherly looked at Zeehan who looked troubled.  He smiled faintly, "I have to get tonight, Zeehan.  After that you can go to Jakarta, "inner Sherly.

Sherly's been plotting a trap for Zeehan, along with Ratna's mother.  By providing a drink containing the drug pe****Ng.

The evening party was not over yet, Zeehan was already unable to stand for long, his head suddenly dizzy and his body hot.

"Zeehan, what's wrong with you?" sherly asked, pretending not to understand what happened.

"My head is dizzy Brother Sherly I want to rest first!" said Zeehan stepping out of the Village Hall.

"Where are you going, Zeehan?" sherly asked following the footsteps of the young man who had become her husband.

"I want to go home, brother!"

"Let me take you!" sherly said she had Zeehan's body start to stagger. Sherly took Zeehan to her house not far from the village hall.

With great difficulty, Sherly takes Zeehan to their bridal room.  Sherly smiled with satisfaction, Zeehan is already hot.

"Why does my body feel like it's on fire" Zeehan stripped off his top clothes.

"Zeehan.." call Sherly softly, caressing the man's chest that has been opened.

Zeehan shook his head many times.  His gaze began to blur, he felt as if he was looking at Lenka before him.

"Lenka, answer me! Why are you torturing me, huh, why?" racau Zeehan is disappointed.

"I've been here. Zeehan," said Sherly.

"Don't go again, I love you baby!" Zeehan fondles Sherly savagely, feeling that in front of him is her lover Lenka.

But, for Sherly it doesn't matter, at least she can still enjoy the first night of their bride, even though Zeehan always mentions Lenka every time he reaches the peak of his enjoyment.

Sherly smiled with satisfaction, after successfully making Zeehan fulfill his duties as a husband.  Unlike Zeehan, he was stunned upon awakening. Seeing Sherly who is still sleeping next to him with her body filled with traces of romance.

Zeehan took a deep breath.  He was trying to digest what happened.  As a man who just finished High School, he did not understand what happened to him.  Zeehan quickly put his clothes back on and walked out of their bridal room.

"Where are you going, Zeehan?" Zeehan turned to someone who called out to him.

"Mom, is Mom here?" Zeehan looked at his mother in wonder.

"Yes, Sherly invites you to stay here, so if you go to Jakarta later, Sherly has a friend," said Ratna's mother smiling sumringah.

"Oh, yes, I want to go back to our house, Mom, I'll be ready to go to Jakarta" said Zeehan.

"When are you going to Jakarta?" ask mother.

"Tomorrow" Zeehan replied briefly.

Seriate.

The pain that has plagued Zeehan in recent days, makes Zeehan have to rest completely. He had to get permission to go to college and work.

"Actually Lo's sick what the hell, Han?" ask Aldo, his roommate.

"Gue was also confused, Do, my body lemes as if there is no energy, and strangely the doctor said I was okay. Every night I dream the same, a little boy runs up to me and calls me papa," explains Zeehan.

"Have you ever impregnated a child?" ask Aldo frontal.

"No, but...!" Zeehan scrunched his forehead. Zeehan was pensive for a moment when his memory returned when he and Lenka were on top of a tree house. They knowingly have been having a husband and wife relationship. Lenka does not regret it, as her love for Zeehan overcomes the fear in her.

"But what? You ever slept with Lo's girl?" ask Aldo.

"Everything, but she never took responsibility from me, that means she's not pregnant right?" Zeehan took a deep breath, though,

Not only once they slept together but, already several times, did not rule out the possibility of Lenka getting pregnant.

"He didn't say anything to Lo" asked Aldo again.

Zeehan recalled, the last time they were on the island, Lenka was vomiting and dizzy. But Lenka said she just caught a cold.

"I'd hate you Lenka, if only you had hidden your pregnancy from me" Zeehan's inner self infuriated.

As a prospective doctor, Zeehan began to be able to analyze the changes in Lenka some time ago. Zeehan regrets he realized too late.

Meanwhile, in the village of Zeehan's birth, the mother begins to get sick, but Sherly no longer ignores her in-laws. Since Zeehan rarely preached it. The money that Zeehan sent, Sherly used for herself and her little daughter.

"Sorry Mrs Ratna, my son and I are moving into my parents' house, I can't take care of my mother anymore" Sherly said.

"Sherly, why did you suddenly change," Bu Ratna asked in surprise.

"I'm tired Ma'am, Zeehan never considered me his wife, should as a mother, mother can teach Zeehan about his responsibilities as a husband, not only the birthplace, but also the inner living," sherly said in an annoyed tone.

"Mom talked to him about it, he said the marriage agreement was only until your son was born, right?"

"Yes, and that means my job of looking after my mother is done, too, but if you can persuade Zeehan to accept me as his wife, I'll consider accompanying you here" Sherly said.

Ratna's mother has been quiet ever since she lived with Sherly. Ratna's mother always does her own homework, including serving all the needs of her daughter-in-law.

Sherly assumes that all the money that her family has spent on Zeehan's tuition fees must be paid with Ms. Ratna's labor. Because Zeehan won't be able to pay all that money.

Ms. Ratna just resigned herself, and did all the housework sincerely. He never complained about Sherly's treatment of Zeehan.

Now that Ms. Ratna lives alone in her home, Sherly has gone to her parents' house with her little daughter Kenzhia Princess Devano.

It was Bang Heri and Mamat who often gave Ms Ratna food, because her mother Zeehan was no longer able to work.

"Bu Ratna, do I have to tell Zeehan that you're sick" Mamat said.

"No need Mat, I don't want to disturb Zeehan's lecture, it's okay if he doesn't go home, the cost from Jakarta to Sumbawa is also expensive," said Bu Ratna sadly.

"If you need anything, just tell me or Bang Heri, " said Mamat.

"Thank you, Mat!"

"Yes, I hope Zeehan succeeds in Jakarta, Mom!" said Mamat again

"Amin," replied Ratna's mother smiling weakly.

Sherly complains to her parents, if Zeehan doesn't care about her.

"Have you told me that your son was born? Ask Ms. Little Sherly's mom.

"Already Ma, he just said congratulations, "Sherly said scowlingly.

"Mom will talk to him, if he refuses to continue the marriage, I will ask your father to stop the tuition assistance" said Imita felt furious.

"Yes ma'am, that cocky guy has to be taught a lesson" Sherly told her mother.

That night, Ms. Dina contacted Zeehan on her phone. The guy lifted the joint lazily.

"What's wrong, ma'am?" ask Zeehan.

"Zeehan, Sherly said you refused to continue with your marriage" Ms. Dina said to the point.

"Sorry Mom, wasn't the deal just until Sherly's son was born, and Sherly's son was born, right? And in the Deed of His Birth there is also my name as his father, and then what else," said Zeehan piety.

"Zeehan, remember! If you do not continue the marriage with Sherly, that means your tuition fees during your time in Jakarta will also be stopped, including your mother, not our responsibility anymore" threatened Bu lita

Zeehan took a deep breath, sooner or later it was bound to happen and Zeehan was expecting it.

"Well Mom, it's okay, I'm still going to get divorced with Sherly's sister, because I don't love her" Zeehan said honestly.

"In that case, we're forced to stop your college aid, Zeehan!" Said Ms. lita again.

"Yes, it's okay Mom, thanks for everything, I promise I will replace all the money that Ms. Little and her father Sherly put out, if I work later," zeehan said he hung up his phone unilaterally.

"It's so boasting of kids!" mad at Bu lita annoyed. "Basic doesn't know himself."

Melbourne 0700

Mama Rekha just finished helping Lenka bathe her tiny baby. Then put on clothes complete with shirts and hats.

"Darling, Mama's son is handsome!" Lenka hugged the tiny baby in her arms, the smell of the baby made Lenka comfortable and inhaled it many times.

"Zio baby, later if mama stay don't be naughty! Mama wants to go to college, Zio lives in the same house as Oma, "Lenka invites her little baby to talk. Baby Zio stared into his eyes intensely. Lenka smiled, as she peeked at the baby's forehead repeatedly.

"Zio, I'm sorry Mama, you can't tell your dad, if you're there right now," a tear fell on Lenka's cheek.

"Lenka, mama will be back in Jakarta tomorrow morning, you're okay mama stay" said Mama Rekha.

"It's okay, Ma!" answer Lenka.

"The love of your father, too long in his stay, no one takes care of him,"

"Yes Ma, go, there's Aunt Julia, too,"

"Yes, you take good care of Zio!" the mother's message.

"Sure Ma, " said Lenka smiling brightly.

The presence of Kenzio in his life, makes Lenka feel cheerful and happy. Surrounded by people who love them, Lenka lives her days without complaining even without the presence of a husband at her side.

Baby Kenzio is growing fast, he can walk now. And Jovan was happy to take him to play in the park. Moreover, Zio called him Daddy. Both are like father and son.

"Zio, call Uncle Jovan!" said Lenka one day.

"Dad..dy!" kenzio said in a cute voice.

"Let's just Val, I don't have a problem?" Jovan.

"Not good, Van! You think Zio is your son" said Lenka.

"No pa pa, all for testing, they are sincere as I am or not" said Jovan laughing.

"meaning?" ask Lenka.

"Yes later, if I say I'm a widower with one child, I want to see what their reaction will be like" explained Jovan.

"If I think anyway, no one will believe that Zio is your son, because Zio does not look like his feathers, his skin is also not very white-white" Lenka said.

"Yes, but he's very handsome and adorable" Jovan said.

"Yes dong, whose son it was, Valencia!" Lenka pointed at her chest. Jovan was singing his lips. "Zio here baby," Lenka carried the little boy into her lap.

"Mm, Mama's handsome son, "Lenka kissed the tiny face fondly. The boy laughed.

"No...Mama," Kenzio pulled his face from Lenka's face.

"Why?"

"I'm tickled, Mam!" Lenka laughed, she felt proud, her little son was fluent in English, because Jovan always took her wherever Jovan went if she was not in college.

"Sorry dear, I love you" Lenka hugged Kenzio tightly.
