Four days passed after Marwah's departure, and another week ahead of Kak Rambo's wedding. I was surprised by the sudden arrival of Kak Rambo to my house, when it was without Kak Anta, because he was having a day's business outside the city.
I looked at him contemplating in front of my porch, probably waiting for me to open the door. I immediately asked him what made him come here after the full moon passed.
"I need your help." Her speech.
After saying that sentence, he immediately made his point, after making small talk about his wedding preparations, in addition to the least I expected him to ask about Marwah's condition.
"Thank God he's okay, and I think he's also more productive, seeing him working all day on the road. And that means her life is getting more positive.... "
"See Marwah working all day?" As long as.
"I just pass by a lot, on the street where he works" he replied. "To be honest since my wedding plans, I feel like we've gotten further and further along. While I don't want us to end up strangers, even though I can't deny the truth about it right now. So, can you give me this invitation to him? I feel so discouraged to meet him."
"Sadly he's gone from here" I said.
"Oh yeah? whither? what's for?"
"Over a week ago. I don't know exactly where, he just said he would move out of the city, his mobile number was no longer reachable. I don't know how long he's been gone..."
"I don't even know about this" said Brother Rambo slowly. "So he really won't come to my wedding... "
"Look, Kak, maybe Marwah can't attend the sister event. But, he had left something for it." My answer. "Wait a minute,"
I went into the bedroom. While Kak Rambo remained waiting on the terrace while lamenting fate, I don't know what he was thinking. The event seems like it will end badly because Marwah will definitely not attend.
"That's titipannya. I should have given up at the reception, but after thinking about it for me it's good to leave it directly to the bride and groom, so that the philosophy of this Marwah gift can sink in and get to your heart, sister."
As soon as Brother Rambo took the gift from my hand, he was silent for a moment while looking at the gift until it trembled. Either because of his card paper motif that makes his phobia relapse, or because he is thinking about himself the gift giver.
"Can I open it now?"
"That's the right of Brother Rambo, so do it as you wish."
After that he immediately tore the package blindly, until it was seen the shape of the cardboard box.
"A pair of bracelets with the symbol 'Pragma' or 'Eternal love'. Marwah wants Kak Rambo to wear it with his sister's partner, so that your love matures and develops as the meaning of the symbol 'Pragma' itself." I clearly.
The afternoon wind blows. A thick white cloud hung in the middle of the blue horizon. While the white roses I picked up yesterday to decorate the kitchen have brought up her daughter again.
I looked at Rambo. He was silent while the bracelet's rem4s were strong.
"She had gone to great lengths to get the bracelet as a worthy wedding present for Big Brother. He works day and night putting aside money to buy it. So I hope you can take good care of that gift."
Brother Rambo did not reply, only nodded slowly. I also can not be separated from looking at him, he is struggling hard against his feelings at this time. Unbecoming feeling that made him vacillated, chaotic.
We fell back silent and drowned in our feelings. Brother Rambo with a strong expression, trying to wipe the tears that accumulate in his clear and sharp eyes, like a homemade gunpoint.
"Cania---"
"Yes, Brother?"
"You really don't have any clue where he's going?"
I shake my head in lethargy.
"Thank you, then I'll go home now. There was a sudden business at home. Give my regards to Anta Reza if she comes home later."
...****************...
On the porch beside the house, as usual I sat with Kak Anta enjoying the twilight. Today he came home early, because there was no scheduled night patrol. Chat lightly while enjoying Coffee and tea, can not be separated also discuss about the wedding of Kak Rambo who is currently staying 3 more days will take place.
Time goes by so fast, it really doesn't feel the turnaround ...
"Wedding's off?" I said while frowning.
Obviously I was surprised not to be upset after hearing this unexpected news, of course this is not a fake news, because Kak Anta who conveyed it directly to me at this time.
"Yes, I don't know why either." Answer Sister Anta. "Since I came home from out of town four days ago, Rambo was a bit weird, he was too quiet and very serious. In the 3 days leading up to her wedding, instead of being busy preparing for the event, she was busy on night patrol. Even to actively patrol the corners of the city, like looking for something."
Sister Anta enjoyed her coffee for a moment then continued.
"Last I heard from her own mouth, she announced at the office that her marriage was being annulled. Hmm, I was really confused with Rambo, even though from the beginning he was half-hearted in running this marriage. But still, cancelling in the 3 days before the event was outrageous. What he didn't think about was how his future wife and family----"
Cancel marriage? is this the impact of his meeting with me four days ago? who was full of sentimental feelings, until finally able to make her cry and now even cancel the wedding?
"Hey, why shut up? what are you thinking?" Said Brother Anta, awakening my reverie.
"Is Brother Rambo trying to find Marwah?" I asked Anta.
Kak Anta's eyes that I always admired the beauty of it, immediately rounded to look at me.
"Yesterday, the day before Sister Anta came home from out of town. Brother Rambo came here to leave his wedding invitation letter to Marwah, to me. He said it was awkward if he gave it directly, he felt that their relationship had become more tenuous and distant. Since Marwah is gone, so I told her the truth, Sister, I also gave her Marwah's gift. Seeing the gift, Brother Rambo to tears-----"
But I have not finished talking, Brother Anta immediately grabbed my body. In his arms he whispered;
"You have done your duty well, and now let the universe work."
