They sat in silence staring at each other not knowing what to talk about, the mother looked at Zahara with her distended stomach sitting in the corner of the house with a cry that had been heard his sobs. The mother who could not hold back her tears tried to stare at the ceiling of the house to stop the tears that would flow.
Long they were silent in silence, Zein now began to raise his voice after looking at his wife and mother-in-law.
"Mother, Zahara, I don't think I can part with those of you that I consider family. This situation is very gripping and we should not leave each other" Zein said
Zahara and her mother heard every word Zein said carefully while she brushed aside the tears that had flowed with the tip of her hand.
"We have to leave Takengon together" he said steadily.
Instantly Zahara and the mother looked at Zein in surprise. Realizing that soon Zein explains how he and his family can get along.
"Although with the money we have saved cannot make so much money. We can sell shophouses" Zein explained
Zahara who heard the words from Zein immediately stopped crying and looked in agreement at the husband.
"Regarding how life will be. The important thing at the moment is that we can get away with this situation. We need to get out together and get out of here alive" Zein said
The mother immediately shed tears when she witnessed the greatness of the heart of the daughter-in-law. It was true that Zein was a proper and trustworthy husband.
"Son... " Mother Zahara started to open her voice
"Mother was so happy to find the greatness of your heart towards me and my son" Lirih the mother involuntarily began to shed tears
"But,.. How could your wife leave in this state? " Task the mother to see the child who has been pregnant for 7 months.
Spontaneous Zahara immediately gasped to hear the words of the mother who woke her
Hearing that, Zein again reassured the mother-in-law "Mother... Because Zein asked for all of us to come along, I can't let Zahara experience things that I can't imagine, giving birth without me company in this situation would be very painful Zahara" Zein's tears broke instantly.
"Mothers... Whether what will happen later on the way, Zahara must be strong because I will continue to be near him and the mother who will always help Zahara... Truly ma'am, the chaos of the journey will be better than leaving you in this situation" Zein continued with tears of freefall
Instantly a boisterous sound of crying filled the night of that worn-out house. Weeping to the god of the universe to see the lamentations of this family and extend help to them.
....
Dawn arrived, not until the sunrise illuminated the nature of Zein immediately rushed to Lukman's house to find out what he would do. The two told a long story before finally deciding to go to the shop where they sell. The plan that Zein was thinking about was not much different from Lukman. Their feet paddled the bike paddles quickly towards the shophouse.
Suddenly Zein and Lukman were shocked to see so many hordes of soldiers who were already in front of their shophouses. In fact, the shophouse that was originally locked is now gaping wide so that it looks like the soldiers who have gone in and out of the shop freely with snacks in each of their hands.
With his eyes wide, Zein and Lukman immediately stepped through the soldiers not accepting to ask why their shophouses were treated in such a way.
"What are you doing" They both don't accept.
Instantly the boisterous sounds of the horde sounded loud and began to indicate their position. Not yet Zein and Lukman stepped far one hard punch regarding the right bend of their necks.
"WHAT'S WRONG HAAA? " Shouted one of the soldiers from within the crowd who was none other than a commander.
The loud voice quickly split the horde like the prophet Moses splitting the sea when pursued by Pharaoh. His big foot steps up the road and approached towards Zein and Lukman who were already lying on the ground. Seeing Zein and Lukman lying on his head, immediately two soldiers of stout stature sat down forcibly Zein and Lukman by holding him to keep from falling.
"What are you guys doing? " Task the commander staring at Zein and Lukman
Zein laughed at the question from the lips of the wicked man in front of him
"What are we doing?!" Zein stared intently at the violent man in front of her.
"We should have asked you like that" Zein stared intently in anger.
"Ohhh" The commander replied with a sly smile on his lips looking at Zein understanding what he was talking about.
"This shop belongs to you?! " Tanyanya back while pointing towards the shophouse.
"And you are a bunch of men who are arrogant and cruel and feel like God just because of the ugly uniforms you wear" Lukman said, expressing his anger, the conversation ended with a precise glance at the commander's face in front of him.
Lukman's actions immediately drew anger from the army who did not accept seeing the commander treated like that right in front of them. However, their steps stopped when the commander held up his hand for the command mark to remain still in place without moving.
"Yep... You're absolutely right" the commander stood up from his squatting position.
Long he was silent while cleaning his face with a cloth given by one of the troops, a hard kick slid into Lukman's face and made him fall from his seat.
"noble men" he said after kicking Zein in the face as well.
"You are too brave" said the commander, kicking Lukman and Zein in turns. Until, fresh blood continued to pour from their faces without stopping. Satisfied with his actions the commander immediately pulled their hair to sit staring at his face.
"You should be quiet without saying much, you know how despicable and magnificent someone is just for wearing this" he said, pointing to the clothes he was wearing.
"You don't know, do you? " She looked at them both.
"Yahhh, people like you know" he replied after asking a question
"It's a pity" the commander continued and moved from his seat
"This shop we have chosen for our military camp post here" he said lightly while cleaning both hands.
Hearing that Zein and Lukman were surprised and immediately looked at the commander did not accept the protest.
Buggg one punch back slid into their heads to make them sprawled on the ground unconscious
