EPS 49 PROMISES THAT ARE (NOT) FORGOTTEN

The night is getting late. The full moon is reaching its peak, emitting the brightest light on a dark night. The moon is Earth's only natural satellite and is the fifth moon in the solar system. The moon is in a synchronous rotation with the earth so it always shows the same side of the earth. After the sun, the moon is the brightest object in the sky. The only celestial body ever in the human race.

Two hearts in love, Dandung and Frida sit inside a large gazebo behind the house to enjoy the full moon. There is always a yearning that is spilled when looking at the face of the moon. Their views did not change at all. They continue to look at the moon while hoping that something can solve the problem they are facing.

But the moon never changes. From time to time his face remained the same. So beautiful and soothing. As if there was no sadness. Then suddenly the light became dim. The darker the longer, as the color of the moon becomes red. Even then it turned as red as blood!

“What?”

Frida and Dandung's voice was choked. Their eyes could not escape the strange phenomenon. There are mystical nuances that make their hair goosebumps. The tense atmosphere immediately felt ambushed. Makes their hearts and bodies tremble a little. Unknowingly Dandung's burly hand grabbed Frida's body in his arms.

“Astaghfirullah..” murmured Frida instantly.

Dandung glanced at him.

“Did you see it also Free?” ask Dandung.

Frida just nodded her head. His heart continued to speak dhikr.

“Laa illaha illaha any subhanaka inni kuntu minadzolimiin.”

Then like a cluster of clouds blown by the wind, slowly the mysterious fog disappeared away. The moon's face slowly returned to its original state. His bright light again shone on the face of the earth. Leaving a trace of questioning and curiosity in the hearts of Dandung, Frida and the guards around her.

“Haidar, increase alertness!” dandung yelled as soon as he started to get himself back.

Iptu Haidar directly confirmed his men to increase vigilance. It turned out that it was not only Dandung and Frida who witnessed a phenomenon that only happened in their lifetime. But all members of the guard force also witnessed the moon's discoloration, even if it lasted only an instant.

“What is hypnotic effect, Free?” ask Dandung.

Frida shook her head.

“I don't know for sure, mas. But I don't think this is the influence of hypnosis, because our minds are all still conscious and able to communicate with each other.” Frida said.

Dandung frowned while thinking hard. If it's not hypnosis, then what force is attacking the moon. Since getting to know Ken Darsih and feeling the mystical events in his life, Dandung's mindset has changed. He used to be the least believer in the supernatural world, but now it is the opposite. Too many events that cannot be understood by reason.

“Ken Darsih,” hisses involuntarily.

Suddenly his face changed. Suddenly he remembered the half-stealth girl. His face slowly turned tense again. He remembers now, tonight was Ken Darsih's last full moon running his hermitage. And he remembered with his promise to pick up the girl from the bottom of Kumitir's heart. Were all the natural phenomena just now closely related to that girl?

“What's up? Why are you still glued and your face is so tense? Did you see anything weird?” frida asked with a worried face.

“Ken Darsih, Free,” hisses are soft, almost inaudible.

Frida scrunched her forehead.

“What? What are you saying mas? Ken Darsih's? That's a person's name?” ask Frida again.

Oops! Slips! Thought Dandung while patting his eel. He just remembered that he had never told anyone about Ken Darsih's whereabouts. Even to his own lover. The face of Frida who was also looking at him was full of questions.

‘Do I have to tell it now? Ah, I guess the timing wasn't right, her inner’ with a worried face. Frida was still waiting for her answer.

Frida raised both her eyebrows.

“A very powerful shaman?”

Dandung nodded quickly.

“I..iya, a very powerful shaman. I mean he's a man of extraordinary supernatural power, it's.”

Frida was still looking at him. Obviously, Dandung's face is not good at lying.

“Already, forget it Free. We can still handle it anyway, there will be Haidar and his men,” kilahnya.

Frida nodded her head. In his heart he smiled broadly. He knows Dandung inside out, even his past full of romance stories with many women. Maybe Ken Darsih was one of the girls he had a relationship with. But Frida doesn't care. From the beginning he only loved Dandung sincerely, without demanding much to the handsome Captain.

Dandung hugged Frida's body again. Holding his head above his chest that field. But his face was still foggy. He had not been able to expel the uneasiness in his heart. His mind was filled with a sense of responsibility for his promise to Ken Darsih. Yet he was also unlikely to leave Frida in this state.

‘What should I do?’ thought.

The huft!

Unknowingly he breathed a rough breath. And that snort was heard by Frida. But the girl did not react. He also does not speculate. Whatever Dandung's gonna do, he's gonna believe it. His belief in the love of the young man was so inherent in the recesses of his heart.

“I believe you mas,” whispered Frida,

Dandung tightened his embrace. Kissed the tip of the head of the most beautiful Polwan lovingly.

“Thank you Free for your trust. That means a lot to me. Rest assured, whatever I do, I will always be with you,” Dandung replied.

Frida deepened her head. In his breath the fragrance of the chest of Dandung field was full of his feelings. He would never think about his lover's loyalty. From the beginning he had already provided himself as a home for the adventurous young man, as a place to return when he felt tired. And that made him happy.

***

Dandung rounded up his decision. He's not going to pick up Ken Darsih tonight. But I'll keep Frida until dawn. Because according to police records, the murders committed by the hypnotist, all done at night. It means he doesn't do anything during the day.

“Haidar, tomorrow I will leave home for a cause. I leave Frida's guard to your team. Take care of him with your life of twenty-four hours. And never let him escape from your supervision,” orders Dandung keda Iptu Haidar.

The commander of the special forces company who was five years old above Dandung nodded his head.

“Siap Ndan!”

Dandung patted Haidar on the shoulder, but his gaze was thrown far ahead. It was as if his gaze was penetrating the awesomeness of the Kecipir forest and the Kumitir palm that was inside.

'Maybe I'm a little late Ken, but I'll never forget my promise'
