Seno sat down in front of Eko's tomb. The young man came back crying. Friends who used to accompany him, spend time together, share his likes and sorrows are now in the last bed. Yakob and Willi crouched near Eko's grave. Yakob's hand rubbed his best friend's headstone.
“Eko. sorry I. I'm sorry I just got to see you now. Thank you for helping me. I will make sure your sacrifice is not in vain. I will continue to learn and achieve our goals together,” Seno said while deleting his tears.
“Ko. I'm sorry and Willi came late. I'm sure you've been happy in your new realm,” exclaimed Yakob.
“If we have time, we must be here look at you. It's good to know you, Ko. Forever you are my best friend,” Willi continued.
Azzam and Zacharias said nothing. It is just the feeling they feel now. Alternately, Seno, Yakob and Willi sow the flowers they buy on the street as well as the water.
Their heads turned when they heard the sound of footsteps approaching. It was Gendis who came. Since Eko died and was buried, the girl has never been absent from her brother's grave every day. Yakob, Willi and Seno soon wake up. The five of them looked at Gendis who was glued to her place when they found out that there was someone else in her grave.
“Gendis, how are you?” ask Azzam.
“Alhamdulillah, good.”
Gendis advanced towards the tomb, then sprinkled flowers and water that she carried. He crouched down for a while to pray for Eko, then stood back up. He saw the faces of his brother's friends, except Seno. He still could not forgive the young man. In his eyes, Seno was the cause of Eko's death.
“Father and mother, is there?” ask Yakob.
“Ada.”
“We want to meet, can?”
Only a nod of the head was given by Gendis. The girl then walked away from the tomb ahead of the others. Azzam and the others followed behind. Gendis who usually talk a lot, now more silent. When he got home, he called his mother and father.
“Mother..” call Yakob.
“Yakob.. Willi.”
Yakob rushed over, then hugged Puji. The woman's cry broke, her mouth could only call out Yakob's name. After Yakob let go of his embrace, Willi hugged him.
“You guys when to come?” tanya Praise after her embrace unravels.
“Tadi morning, ma'am. We went straight to the hospital, then here,” Willi replied.
“You must be tired. Already eaten, not yet?”
“Ngga bother, ma'am. We are here because bang Yakob, Willi and Seno do not know the tomb of Eko,” Azzam replied.
“Come sit down first.”
Hearing from Gendis that his son's best friend came, Darmo who was at his neighbor's house immediately went home. He was asking for a new land he was going to work on. Because the land that he cultivated yesterday has been harvested. The landowner said he still did not want to plant anymore, because it ran out of capital. Yesterday's crops were short-lived, and landowners were losing money.
“Bapak..” Welcome Yakob when Darmo enters the house.
“You guys when to come?”
“Newly, sir.”
“Seno.. Can you leave the hospital?”
“Bby, sir. But only two hours.”
“Come rest first. Gendis get me a drink.”
“Sorry.. drink it potluck.”
“Ngga nothing, sir. Drink the jug water instead seger, the water is cold, like from the refrigerator,” Yakob said.
The man poured water into the five glasses that Gendis had brought. In order to honor the host and expel thirst, all five immediately spent the drink in the glass. The weather is quite hot, the water from the jug can eliminate the thirst felt.
From outside, the sound of the car stopped. From inside, come Kenan. The man had just finished making a land purchase transaction. As per Abi's mandate, he will give the land deed to Darmo. Tomorrow, he had asked a notary to reverse the land deed to Darmo's.
“Assalamu’alaikum.”
“Waalaikumsalam.”
“Daddy..” call Azzam.
“Loh, Azzam are you here? Seno... Can you leave the hospital?”
“Just a minute, um. I've never been to Eko.”'s grave
“Please sit down, Mr. Kenan. Gendis, get me another drink.”
“Not bother, sir.”
Kenan sat down near Darmo. Azzam already knew what the arrival of his daddy meant. In Kenan's hand was a brown envelope that must have contained a land deed. Performance in his family who always moves fast, it is not strange anymore for him.
“Pardon Mr. Darmo, my goal came to fulfill the mandate that papa and uncles gave me.”
“What's up, Mr Kenan?”
“Father knows there is land for sale near the tomb of Eko?”
“Know, sir. That's the property of Mr. Warno. Would you like to buy that land?”
“I've bought it, sir. This is the certificate of land.”
Kenan gave a brown envelope in his hand. Darmo took the envelope. He was confused, why Kenan actually gave the deed to him. His forehead seemed to be frowning looking at Kenan.
“My parents and uncles deliberately bought the land. They gave the land to Darmo's family. Father is free to process it.”
“I mean I manage the land? What to plant, sir?”
“Whatever you want to plant. The land is already owned by mr.”
“What do you mean, sir?”
It seems that Darmo is still confused by what Kenan said. If he does not hear wrong, he hears that the land is already his property. But it was impossible for the Wisdom family to buy land for him that was nobody.
“The land is already the property of the father. Tomorrow there is a notary who will be here to help change the name of the owner.”
“The land is un.. for my sa? Ba..pak is not kidding, right?”
