Anjani Darling
The Guardian Angel is gone

I almost fell when I hit Zein's brother who suddenly came from inside. Fortunately, he caught my body.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." I said, worried about getting into new trouble.

"You're just darima, why did you just go home now?" ask brother Zein.

"Not from anywhere."

"Go with Philip, right?"

"Anjani, you just got home?" suddenly the head mother of the family from her office.

"Yes Ma'am, I told Anjani to buy something" replied Zein.

"Oh that's it." Mum head back into her office.

"It's a good thing that you helped me, otherwise I could get into trouble" I said.

"Next time do not repeat. I know you're like this because you were asked by Philip, right? But it doesn't matter to me, because tomorrow he has to go, too."

"Don't you know brother Philip's leaving?"

"Yes, he's gonna fly to Paris."

"Where do you know?"

"From Philip. He's been saying it for a month."

"What?" I don't understand why Philip kept it a secret from me, while to others he told me so far.

In my room I cried so much. Tomorrow, the only friend I have will leave. I won't be able to see him again for the next few years. Who will be my friend? Who will help me when there is a problem?

"Anjani, Philip gave this letter to you" said aunt Desi, as she walked into my room.

"What's this?" I opened Philip's handwritten letter.

Anjani, I know you're angry because I smelled to tell you about my departure. But actually I've been trying to tell you, it's just that I can't. I'm afraid to make you anxious if you remember that I'm leaving in a month. I'm sorry Anjani.

I leave at ten in the morning. I hope you'll meet me in the Pine Forest now. I'm really waiting for you.

There are still two hours left, I deliberately ignored the message from Philip. Trying not to care about it so that he knows what it is like not to be considered.

Half an hour before Brother Philip left, I was really made to worry, between continuing to silence or meet him. I was afraid I would never see him again.

"Bi, I'm going for a minute!" I said, hurrying away after Philip's brother.

Philip's house is empty, said the maid who works at his house he had just gone to his brother's house which is not far from here for parting. Just as I was about to go there, suddenly Brother Zein appeared with his blind motorbike.

"Let's go up, if you walk it'll be too late!" said brother Zein.

The motor is going pretty fast. I even felt like I was going to fall so tight. But Zein's efforts were not in vain because we were finally able to meet with Philip's brother.

"Anjani!" said. "I don't think you're coming." he smiled with relief at my arrival.

"How can I possibly let go of my guardian angel without saying goodbye." I said.

"Anjani, you should be fine. Wait for me to come back. Understood!" said.

"Hm," I tried not to cry even though his chest was already tight.

"Oh yeah, I put something on Laras. I was going to give it to you, but you didn't come to the Pine Forest."

"Anjani, I have to go first. Zein, take care of him!" pinta brother Philip on brother Zein.

I was still standing in the same spot when Philip's car started to leave us, slowly, until it finally disappeared from our sight.

"Why brother Philip left me to my brother. Brother Zein will also go to Jogja." I said.

"Who said?" said it.

"Lho, isn't that it?"

"Know. I'm going to college in Padang, not Jogja."

"I heard it at that time."

"But I've canceled. I chose Padang."

"Why? I really want to go to college in Jogja."

"Because I want to keep seeing you!" brother Zein said as he passed by without regard for me.

Now you and I will cover a very wide distance. I'm here, and you're there. We are separated by a very distant ocean. Even so I believe you'll be home. Brother Philip, brother is my protector. The brother who always took care of me all this time, after this I will take care of myself.

"Anjani, this is a parcel from Philip." Laras gave it to me.

I opened a box that was quite large. There was a cell phone that was bought for me.

"In it there are already cards and pulsations. You can call Philip whenever you want." said Laras. He also gave Philip's email address written on a glossy piece of paper.

My guardian angel, it turns out you didn't really leave me completely. You're always there for me. Even though we're too far away, you're trying to erase that distance by giving this thing to me. I'm really lucky to have known you.

"If you have anything, don't hesitate to contact me. Although I'm not as close as Philip, but I'm ready to help you whenever you need me. Philip is my friend, whoever his friend is my friend. So don't hesitate." added Laras.

"Thank you so much, brother." I repeatedly thanked you. It's lucky to have friends like Philip's brother and Laras' brother.

[Anjani, are you asleep?] a message from Philip came in.

[Not yet. I was confused to wear this phone.] I replied.

[Hahaha, just calm down. Use it slowly, you can also wear it for a long time.]

[Where are you?]

[I just arrived in Jakarta.]

Hearing the word Jakarta, I immediately remembered my father and mother. If Jakarta is not broad and not many residents, maybe I have asked for help brother Philip looking for father and mother. But I also do not know the full address of my house in Jakarta.

[Are you thinking about your mom and dad?] ask brother Philip.

[Yes. If only you could find them.]

[Anjani, I will try to find as much information as possible about your father and mother. You are patient.]

[Yes. He also concentrated on his studies to graduate quickly and then returned to Jakarta.]

I know very well about Philip's dream to Paris. Besides wanting to study there, he also wanted to find his father again. We are far from our parents. That's why we got this familiar because of the similarity in background Since his father and mother divorced, brother Philip never again met his father. He moved to his mother's village. However, brother Philip never gave up, wanting to always find his father somehow. That spirit is always transmitted to me that hope is still there while we are still looking after it.

I hope Philip can meet his father soon and I can meet both my parents because being away from them is a very severe torture.
