Are You My Brother ?

Are You My Brother ?
The Challenger


3 Days after my brother was hospitalized. His condition has also started to improve. Sure enough, he was a strong human figure, who seemed - would never care about his pain. In addition to the grace of the power, the strength of the determination to survive also affects the speed of healing his wounds. Because the stupid thing that people often do is think that they should not think, and that thought will become a reality. But my brother is different, he is always optimistic and does not think about what is not - no, the result of his recovery was very fast.


" Candra, thank you for the blood, because of this blood I can still see the universe" said my brother with a smile despite still lying limp.


" And thank you for the shield from your body, so I can still feel the beauty of the togetherness that I have always wanted" I replied.


" Hmmm, you're great, Candra," said my brother.


I also feel a high level of confidence due to those words. Finally the words were spoken again from the mouth of the person whom I had been dying to defeat.


" But it's still big brother" he said.


My smile turned into a moody feeling, just now I felt very high self-confidence. But the sense of it in an instant disappeared due to those annoying words. Meanwhile, the brother even smiled - a vague smile while looking at me.


" Kidding. Brother admit it," His other words changed my expression.


" Don't be too serious about living, sometimes we also have to be silly to make our lives more colorful" he added.


I don't know what happened, somehow these tears came - they came dripping. I want to throw away all my tears. A longing that can finally be realized.


" After you recover, fight with me again !" I said as I wiped my tears and turned my sad expression into a smile.


" You really grew up to be a tough guy, Candra" my sister told me.


Time after time my brother's condition has started to improve, but from the hospital has not been allowed to go home. Obviously, a puncture wound coupled with a hard kick to his leg may be very risky if it escapes the supervision of a doctor. When other people were anxious about her condition, my brother was very relaxed. Sometimes I think, from what it was created, that it can be that strong. Even when I imagined the sharp knife thrust should it hit my body, I shivered in fear. It feels right - can not be expressed in words, but it is only a shadow, especially if the reality.


On a clear morning, more precisely on a Sunday. When the morning sky is decorated with a fairly thick fog, so that the rays of the sun was no one could penetrate it. That was the moment when something ridiculous happened, the stupidity of my brother who took me to the place where he was stabbed by the herd of criminals. I don't know what he meant and what purpose he actually took me to that place. But I have a bad feeling, is he going to find the 3 criminals there and avenge him ?. But it is impossible, he can only move with the help of a wheelchair, where maybe he will fight with his circumstances like that.


" Silver...." Call her.


" What's up, brother ?" My toot.


" Temenin big brother walk - road, bosen sleeps constantly," he complained.


" Where are you going ?" Ask again.


" Where would I go, if I could get to the place where I was stabbed by those criminals," he said seriously.


" Why do you want to go to that place, not very dangerous, let alone the outside situation that is full of fog. Surely the place will be very quiet and do not rule out the possibility if there will be many bad people there. Besides, aren't you traumatized by that place ?" Ask me with a long speech.


" Be calm, don't think negatively. Because something will happen when you think that it will happen. And our purpose is to walk" replied my brother.


I pushed the wheelchair where my sister put her body. It felt like a long time no togetherness with him. All this time I could only feel it through a dream, I don't know why I often dream about being with my brother. Perhaps that is what is called longing, and the creator knows that feeling. Therefore, he made his servant enter into a dream that was like a reality.


" It was a long time ago too, and something I dreamed of - the dream was finally realized" I said as I pushed through the wheelchair my brother was in.


" Not really, as long as a name is eternal in a person's heart, then as long as that person feels always with him" replied my brother.


" Heh, there are always answers or words coming out of my brother's mouth that make me unable to deny that" I said.


A small laugh came from the brother's mouth. While walking around a place filled with dark fog that morning we joked together. Doing things we haven't done long enough. In the end, my brother told me to stop my push into his wheelchair when we got to a place. A pretty historic place for me. A place where I almost lost someone very valuable in my life.


Thick fog still enveloped the beauty of the morning, the smile of the morning sun could not look like usual. Only the gust of wind that hit the body to make my limp black hair random - scramble. My brother told me to walk again, and to my concern it really happened. The same herd of criminals as my brother's stabbing villain appeared in front of it, but this time only 2 people were seen, either hip to where the other, until they realized our presence.


" Death challenger," I said to my brother with great annoyance.


He even laughed when he heard my words, I who did not have time to turn around managed to be blocked by them. The brother even pretended to want to fight them. He started to stand up from his wheelchair, but I prevented him.


" Stop, let me fight them. Just look and enjoy my fight !" I said confidently beside my sister's worried face.


" So you guys again, and you're still alive, are you ?" Ask the villain who stabbed my brother in the stomach.


Without saying much, I was immediately in front of the 2 criminals and prepared to do a fight. What I'm really grateful for is that, fortunately, they didn't carry such sharp weapons back then. Until the fierce fight ended with my victory. The two criminals ran away - birit.


" Crazy.... The first time you showed your greatness in front of your brother," said my brother.


" Well, great, right ?" I said proud of myself.


" Excited," My brother reproached.


" Never assume the person who always shows his greatness is a proud person. Because maybe he is a person who used to always be underestimated by others and he just wants to prove that he can" I said at length.


My brother's face suddenly changed, maybe my words made him feel guilty about everything that had happened.


" I'm sorry, I'm sorry your sister made you feel so underestimated" he said.


" No problem" I answered briefly.


We continued walking around in the dark fog that covered the land. Until when slowly the morning had begun to disappear, the sun had managed to penetrate the fog. And then we went back to the hospital.
