For One Heart.
32. Recovering

When all the members are asleep. Bang Gumantar and Bang Enggano could not close their eyes, they were awake and now they were sitting with two cups of coffee in the coconut shell.

Irene and Hanin were already sleeping. Hanin slept beside Bang Gumantar and Irene slept beside Bang Enggano.

Bang Enggano took a deep breath. Now he realized his tired heart. Two years of accompanying Irene did not feel enough to soften the heart of his Mother Alden Mahameru. Hate speech that has always been spoken is just a word. This morning's meeting clearly showed that the love in Irene's heart for her best friend would never be extinguished.

Bang Gumantar's head was still circling between conscious and not, Irene's figure felt so close in her heart yet there was a huge responsibility in her to take care of Hanin.

"Novens.."

Bang Gumantar turned his head, could it be true that his name was Lieutenant Novendra Mahameru but the name was also no stranger attached to his soul. "Hmm.the answer is brief.

"Wouldn't you go back to town to see your parents? They miss you." Bang Enggano.

"I can't get out of the custom. I have Hanin too." Answer Bang Gumantar.

"What life are you living? Are you really married to Hanin?? We have to clear the situation. You have a life out there. There are so many cries for your departure. Come back..!!"

Bang Gumantar looked up at the vast sky. The sound of crickets and snoring of the members of the Bang Enggano team added to the noise that night.

"I married Hanin customarily. This village only understands about ancestors and ancestors." Answer Bang Gumantar.

"That means you and Hanin........"

"I'm not Zina. I haven't had any physical contact with Hanin. I understand my belief No. Hanin was too naive and innocent after all. Aahh. I don't know how to describe a Hanin's song."

"I understand."

"I was confused with myself. There's something I understand, but there's also a lot of puzzles missing from my life." Bang Gumantar Imbuh. "But I have an old father's promise not to leave Hanin, because he has no one in the world. Now he's just got me."

Bang Enggano still could not say anything. Indeed, he had not fulfilled any part of Irene's life, but still today's events make everything ambiguous. Moreover, this is not a small matter and requires thoughts and decisions from parents.

"Our swallowed ones are walking while thinking about the way out..!!"

***

In the morning Irene had just woken up from her sleep but Hanin was already struggling with the fireplace. Hanin had already stirred up the sago and boiled the entire foodstuff for everyone. The girl looks very calm but sometimes her behavior is still childish. Understandably, everyone would know if the girl was still very young and young.

Bang Gumantar after drawing water and Bang Enggano just performed his morning worship. After the prayer he immediately joined to help Bang Gumantar.

"Is this your job every morning??" Ask Bang Enggano.

"Yes, take the water from the river." Reply Bang Gumantar then poured water in a jar.

"There's no physical training battalion but you're here huh." Bang Enggano laughed when he saw that the physical form of his best friend had not changed.

But a moment later Bang Gumantar was stunned. The silhouette of his memories of Irene came back again. He squeezed his head which felt like it was going round and round.

"Ireeeneee..!!!!!" The screech. "Astagfirulah.." Bang Gumantar crashed into a bamboo room in the house.

"Abaaaaang.." cried Hanin surprised to see Bang Gumantar. "Why did you come and fuck up here. Bang Gumantar my husband..!!" Hanin forbade everyone from approaching, he hugged Bang Gumantar tightly.

Irene could not help but cry looking at him. He could only look at Bang Enggano's face with a feeling of sadness and fear for the man.

:

Bang Gumantar after draining his entire stomach, his memory returned. Because currently Irene's position is a nursing school intern, so she takes care of Bang Gumantar directly.

Now Bang Gumantar has realized that he is First Lieutenant Novendra Mahameru. He looked at his best friend who was still standing with him in the care.

Her heart aches when she finds out that Irene is engaged to her best friend but she also remembers the problems of her traditional marriage with Hanin.

There Hanin made no sound, only tears revealed that the girl also felt the same pain.

"Gano.. Hanin.. Can I have a word with Irene?" Pinta Bang Noven's.

//

"How are you, baby?" Sapa Bang Noven's. Now Bang Noven and Irene stood facing each other and stared at each other.

"Irene's healthy Bang."

Bang Noven fused his forehead to Irene's forehead breaking the pent-up longing for several years. He hugs while touching Irene's stomach and realizes that the stomach once contained the fruit of his love for Irene.

"Your son Bang, is smart. Just like his father. Name's Alden.. Alden Mahameru." Irene.

It felt like Bang Noven could not hold back the rate of tears. Clear melts spilled down on Irene's face. "Thank you for all your struggles, dear. Sorry for the long time you've been leaving."

Irene was sobbing hearing that. Irene took off the hug. "Abang is married to another woman."

The more painful Bang Noven heard it. Bang Noven realized that his life was in a new state of trouble.

"Abang will take care of it." Bang Noven's whisper pointed his face towards Irene's lips. "Dreams about you, misses you so much."

Irene moved away, there was heartache unable to imagine her husband's togetherness with Hanin.

"HANine............"

"Believe it. By Allah you never touch it." Bang Noven.

Irene couldn't believe it, where there were people who were married but didn't touch each other. Irene brushed off Bang Noven's hand but Bang Noven did not let Irene just walk away.

"Irene's already engaged."

"But you're still brother's legitimate wife. You can't continue the marriage with Gano..!!" Bang Noven.

"But you already have Hanin..!!!!" Irene continued to rebel until Bang Noven felt overwhelmed.

"Abang doesn't care even though all the roads are deadlocked. You still have a brother..!!" Bang Noven picked up Irene and laid her down on a bamboo bed.

"Yin..!!!"

Bang Noven covered Irene's mouth with his palm. "Hhhhhhhhhhhstt.. Silent deck. You want everyone to see us?????"

"But........"

As if he did not want to lose Irene again, Bang Noven attacked Irene with a hunting breath.

//

"We used to bathe in this river. Just find a fish."

"Yes, I'm going to take a shower. Two days you haven't had a bath." Answer Bang Gano.

Hanin nodded then down into the river. With makeshift tools Hanin looks for fish. It did not take long have many fish netted after that he put the basket on the river bank.

The distance between Bang Gano and Hanin was only a large stone, a male and female area but at that time Bang Gano was curious, his tail glanced at Hanin who was taking off his hair until his long hair was broken. Hanin loosened the cloth wrapped around his chest.

"Subhanallah.. Masya Allah.. Astagfirullah.." he muttered but the two eyeballs did not switch at all. "Duuuhh. ngelu." Bang Gano bit his lips, his heart was anxious because his body suddenly tensed up to see the cohesion of the princess inland.
