(Family) Bound
Travelling

The atmosphere in the Rahardian family home was really boisterous. Bara and Dara's aqiqah event was held in conjunction with the recitation of Radit's acceptance at Charite University, Germany and Adit at the military academy. This event is also a release because in two days Radit will leave with Peter to Germany to start preparing for college, and Adit will leave for Magelang two weeks later with the company of Rendra.

Kira looks better after undergoing two rounds of chemotherapy. Although very heavy, but the support of his family makes Kira able to continue to survive. And cancer detected while still in stage two also makes the treatment of Kira easier.

Currently the Rahardian, Hardisiswo, and Tanzil families put great hope in stem cells obtained from the umbilical cord of the twins. They hope that stem cell implantation will not only cure the leukemia Kira suffered, but also blood disorders caused by drugs given by Lucas 12 years ago.

Kira sat in the living room while holding Bara who was sleeping soundly in her bed. Kira's head was wrapped in a turban to cover her bare head. The effects of chemotherapy cause beautiful hair Kira severe loss until finally forced to be shaved off.

"Ma. Mama it's really okay we stay now..?? Mama's surgery next month." Adit asked as he struggled in his mother's arms. One hand kept on teasing the sound sleep of Bara.

"Mama's okay, Dit. You guys just calm down. There will be papa equally eyeang who take care of mama. Grandma Hani also helped mom." Kira calms her two sons.

Radit was annoyed to see Adit continue to tease Bara who was asleep, he hit hard the shoulder of his twin brother.

"Lo what's sich..??!!" Adit Protest.

"Ga need to nosy napa..?? Kasian mama if Bara sampe woke up." Tegur Radit's.

"Bawel. I'm like Luna's sister just bring it." Sulu Adit's.

"Aduuuuh..!! Oh..!!" Adit exclaimed when suddenly getting a pinch in a row.

"Who are you saying take..??!!" Ask Luna.

"The reality." Adit grunts while stroking his arm which was pinched by Luna.

"Where, Dara..??" Tanya Adit who realizes her sister is not with her mother.

"It's the same oom Hans as Aunt Rianti." Kira replied while pointing towards the two people meant by her chin.

Adit followed Kira's direction. He saw that Rianti who was carrying Dara looked embarrassed because Hans was sitting next to him. Not far from them, Ranu, Rianti's youngest son was staring intently at the two adults before him. Suddenly Adit grinned with a ignorant face, then stood up and walked over to them.

"Adit..!! Don't bother oom Hans and aunt Rianti..!!" Tegur Kira's.

Kira's feeling was immediately unpleasant when she saw Adit's ignorant face. But his son doesn't seem to care.

"Just let it go, ma. Mostly he wants porotin oom Hans again." Radit Cibir.

"Again..??" Kira asked while linking her eyebrows together.

"Mommy doesn't know yet..?? Tempo day Adit ajakin Ranu recokin papa same aunt Rianti. He just stopped and took Ranu away after papa promised to buy the latest version of XBox." Luna Sahut.

Since becoming engaged to Edo, Luna was indeed asked to follow the way Edo called his family.

"So the new XBox in your room is from oom Hans..??" Kira asked in surprise. Radit and Luna just nodded to agree.

"Good god, that kid. Mama was so worried about taking him off at the academy." Susult Kira was upset.

"Yes between Adit who became kapok, or the teachers there who are getting dizzy because of him." Answer Radit casually.

"Mommy, let me put Bara to bed in the room. He's been sleeping well since. Mommy's gonna be tired if he keeps holding Bara." Luna.

Kira smiles and hands Bara over to Luna. The girl then took Bara to the nursery which was located next to Kira and Shaka's room.

Kira then turned to look at Radit and stared fixedly at his son's face. Radit did inherit many of Pierre's traits. Although he often makes trouble with Adit, Radit tends to be more calm and patient. If Adit explodes easily, Radit is more able to have a cool head. Although of course, Radit inherited Kira's stubbornness. It was not easy to persuade the young man when he had made his decision.

"How's your preparation..?? Has everything been sorted out..??" Ask Kira with a sad face. In two days he had to give up Radit to go to college in Germany.

"It's all done, ma. I've finished packing, too." Reply Radit. The young man grabbed Kira's hand and grasped it tightly.

"During there take good care of yourself. Don't bother Opa Peter. After moving to the apartment, you still have to keep Peter's opa. Despite living in a different city, come and accompany him often." Kira's Message.

"Yes, ma." Radit replied as he developed his smile which always looked soothing.

"And remember..!! No matter how busy you are, don't forget worship. Take care of your company and remember your limits. The association there is more free, and you can be friends with anyone as long as you do not fall into things that are not good. And remember your custom as an eastern." Kira's message to Radit.

Radit smiled and hugged his mother tightly. She drowned her face in Kira's stomach, as if trying to remember every moment she and Adit were in her mother's womb for nine months.

"I won't disappoint my mom and dad. I promise I'll make mom and dad proud." Radit's promise as he raised his head to look at Kira's face.

"Mama loves you very much, son. Mama just wants the best for you." Kira said.

"I know, ma. I also love my mom very much. I'll go home whenever I get a chance. But mom had to promise to keep going. Because I want every time I come home there's a mama who'll welcome me." Pinta Radit with a choked voice.

Although Radit was more silent than Adit, but actually he was no less worried about the condition of his mother.

"Mama has so many reasons to stay. And you see for yourself, my mother's condition continues to improve. Stem cells from the umbilical cord of your two sisters also have a match with your mother. Mama is sure after the surgery, she will be healed. Maybe after that mama will come visit you and Adit often to make sure you don't make trouble." Kira said to calm Radit down.

"After mama recovers I will save up to take Bara and Dara around the world with me after they grow up." Said Radit. Kira looked at Radit with a face full of question marks.

"Because they saved my mom. Their presence brings healing to mama." Radit. Kira laughs at the promise Radit made.

"Then you should start saving from now on." Sahut Kira who was greeted by a close embrace by Radit.

*****

Adit breathed a few times. Radit was seen who was dropping some suitcases from the trunk of the car with the help of Edo. Peter stood beside Adit while occasionally patting his grandson's shoulder gently.

Both Radit and Adit have remained silent since they left home for the airport. Only Edo and Adit are escorting Radit, as that day is Kira's last chemotherapy schedule before undergoing surgery.

"Dit, I know in Germany it's cold. But don't get stiffer. I'm afraid coming back from there you're really like a refrigerator." Adit broke the silence between the two.

"Lo is the same. Learn the habits of the girl godain. Don't like fighting. Don't nosy. Look out if I'm hearing you kicked from the academy because of your behavior that likes to be unclear." Threat Radit.

"Gue will miss you, Dit." Adit said while bowing his head.

"Same. I also. Especially from small we go everywhere. There are many people who say we are conjoined twins." Sahut Radit's.

Both are silent again. For nearly 18 years of their lives, Dit-dit has hardly been separated. Everywhere they are together, even always in the same school and the same class. You could say they always rely on each other.

"Lo ain't gonna forget me, is it..??" Ask Adit who is always more expressive about his feelings.

"Where do I want to forget you, if every time I see your face." The word Radit reminds Adit that they are identical twins who are very similar to each other.

"Take care of yourself there. Do not get your face tangled because of the college assignments that accumulate. You can forget my face." Cibir Adit's.

"Lo is the same. Don't get to ntar when we meet again I can't recognize you because you add the item." Reply Radit.

"Radit, we have to go in now." Take Peter.

Radit and Adit looked at each other. For the first time they will be separated, for how long. Weight. But they also realize that each has a different way of life.

Adit is shocked when Radit hugs him first. Like Kira, Radit is not a person who easily expresses or shows his feelings. Adit returned Radit's embrace tightly. It was as if it would really be the last time they met.

"Don't forget to keep up with the news, Dit. Call me whenever you need. As always, I'll always be there for you." Said Adit.

"Lo is the same. Never forget that you can always take care of me whenever you have a problem." Sahut Radit's.

"Gue love you so much, Dit." Radit said as he sobbed and tightened his embrace.

Adit's cry broke when he heard Radit express his feelings for the first time in nearly 18 years they had grown up together.

"Gue is also very fond of you, Dit." Sahut Adit in the middle of his stuffing.

Edo patted Adit's shoulder softly upon hearing the call for Radit's departure. The two brothers finally let go of the embrace and wiped away their tears.

"Although not every day or often, but later you still have many opportunities to meet." Edo comforted his two brothers.

"Yes, brother." Answer Dit-dit simultaneously. Radit then hugged Edo's body tightly.

"Take good, brother. Please take care of our family. Titip Adit too. If he's stubborn enough to keep his head." Said Radit.

"You don't have to worry, Dit. You take good care of yourself there. Don't forget to keep telling me, especially mommy, daddy, and Adit." Sahut Edo while returning Radit's embrace.

Adit stared at Radit's back, which continued to move away until it disappeared from his sight. He waits until the plane carrying Radit leaves completely off the runway. Edo tightly embraced Adit's shoulder. To calm his sad sister.
