"Cakra ... ma-tomb this? Who?"
"Nobody, why?" Cakra asked back with a face that looked relaxed.
Ameera was still unmoved, she was not satisfied with Cakra's answer because the woman remembered very well if she ever found the name, precisely behind the photo of someone Cakra stored in her wallet.
Yes, Ameera was sure that was not wrong, and she guessed that man was Cakra's late father. However, strangely Cakra denied that and showed no sadness at all, it was clearly a question for Ameera.
"No-no, maybe I'm the one who misunderstood," Ameera replied then got up, slowly leaving the place and still kept looking until her neck hurt.
Throughout the journey there was no discussion between them. Ameera is immersed in her conjecture, while Cakra focuses on the steering wheel while several times stealing Ameera's face in the rearview of her motorcycle.
Given the long day, Cakra did not immediately take Ameera to Abah Asep's house, but to a place that used to be a place to hide whenever there was a dispute between his parents.
"Beautiful, what's that cave in there?" meera asked enthusiastically, very clever way Cakra diverted his mind until now momentarily forgot about the tomb.
Cakra nodded, got a response Cakra, the woman immediately ran up to the cave. "Ameera, don't!!" firmly Cakra while pulling his wrist, strong enough that the woman grimaced with pain.
"Why? It doesn't seem scary" replied Ameera gazing at the cave, confused as to why Cakra forbade it. Though when viewed the place is not creepy, but quite the opposite.
"You don't know in it how, just look outside, Ra," replied Cakra as he stared blankly at my door.
The little Cakra Shadow that ran with the wound on his head was so clearly reflected in the man's eyes, even the roar of his breath and sobs could still be felt until he involuntarily shed a real tear.
"You shouldn't hide, you idiot!!" the strangulation of Cakra that made Ameera instantly release her hand, was rough enough to make Cakra wake up and his dark shadow that night changed.
There is no small chakra there, only Ameera. The man rubbed his face, slowly approaching while Ameera, who was already afraid and thought that if Cakra had a sixth sense, was now pale while crushing the tip of her veil.
Cakra knew Ameera was afraid, there was no intention at all, but indeed all of that happened naturally. "Rho? You why? Scared huh?"
"Well, what do you see? Why didn't I come here if there were a lot of ghosts?" Ameera trembled, her breathing began to be abnormal even looking into Cakra's eyes alone she lacked courage.
Realizing that the woman's fear cannot be underestimated, Cakra broke down and expressed as if deliberately pranking Ameera, and it succeeded in making Cakra feel spicy on his shoulders.
"The chakras!! Not funny at all!!" upset Ameera was about to land her palm a second time, but that quickly Cakra caught Ameera's wrist before then deliberately dipping her palm.
"Let's not hurt," said Cakra as he winked, obviously the one who got the treatment was withered instantly.
"Still want to be here? There's a waterfall over there .. Surely you like."
"really? Want, I want, Cakra!!"
It is easy to distract him, when the real one is no longer at home is the Cakra itself. Indeed, he regretted that because he invited Ameera to that place, in fact only the hatred in him became more and more.
Along with Cakra the journey feels more fun for Ameera. Either because of the way Cakra drives or purely because of the love that makes it so comfortable even though the terrain is not as smooth as the highway.
"Well, my phone forgot, it's a pity there's no picture of it."
After being satisfied to see and feel the fresh air of the waterfall, Ameera just remembered if she forgot to bring her cellphone. "It's okay, next time we come again" Cakra said unknowingly he re-carved a promise.
How else, he forgot to bring a cell phone just like Ameera because he had not used it for a few days. "That includes a promise, and I'll charge that promise later," Ameera's timpal stared fixedly at Cakra's handsome face, as if asserting that their togetherness was still long.
"I will gladly accompany you, wherever." Cakra smiled warmly, linking her pinkie to Ameera's fingers as a form of attachment between them.
"Where else?" ask Ameera has not yet let go of her fingers, let it last until Cakra re-carves his promise.
Whether or not, Cakra nodded until Ameera let out a long sigh. "Yes, Meera, anywhere."

Long enough both of them spend time outside, Ameera seemed to feel like she was on vacation in the countryside. When he arrived at Abah Asep's house and his wife was still in the field, while Ayumi who had come home had just left again to teach najai at the mosque. The information Ameera got from Mahendra who answered ketus because angry left alone like an old house display.
"Based on stress, usually not so," Ameera scolded when Mahendra passed in after answering Cakra's greeting.
"Sir Irzan why? Angry, have you been going long?" Cakra who had met Mahen when helping his case was clearly confused because the man looked different when in the village.
"Let it go, perhaps drunkenness," replied Ameera's origin until Cakra chuckled for a moment, but as much as possible she guarded herself for fear of being stalked from within.
At the end of the meeting, Ameera is always ordered to enter first, while Cakra will leave after Ameera is lost from her sight. However, this time Ameera seemed hard to release the chakra and she did not immediately heed Cakra's orders.
"Ehm, that tomb .. it's true my father's tomb."
"Huh?" Without Ameera asking again, Cakra explained it himself.
"Yes, Gutama Darmawangsa is ay_ papa or whatever the name is, essentially the bearer of disaster that destroyed my mother's life," explained Cakra while sighing violently, he looked riled with a gaze that is now no longer directed.
"I'm sorry, Cakra, I shouldn't have asked you that." For God's sake, Ameera felt uneasy when she saw Cakra's eyes wet now.
Nevertheless, she did not look angry at Ameera, Cakra still displayed her sweet smile as usual. "It's okay, now you can calm down, right? Come in, don't think of anything, Ra," said Cakra softly as she inserted Ameera's hair that appeared to be coming out of her impromptu hijab.
Again and again, Ameera's brain thought hard every time she looked into Cakra's shady eyes. "Within what wound do you hide behind that smile, Cakra?"
