I Love U! Husband Carried
CHAPTER 77 - Delayed Love 2


"Try telling me!" said Kak Anta "Three months have passed, when will you patrol the night every day and travel to get out of town?!"


"It's not your business---"


"Haish! You here, don't think about your family?" Sister Anta snorted, "Look, what have you been thinking all this time? since canceling the marriage, you become closed and can not set goals, like a lost poet. That's why I brought you here, we're trying to create more space to talk to each other and be open. Is there something you're looking for?"


"Is Brother looking for Marwah?" After putting tea for the two of them on the table.


Amidst the dim light, my eyes noticed the figure of Kak Rambo who is now as dim as the night sky. He looked lethargic and furious, like he was struggling desperately but the results were nil. Looking back 3 months at his thoughts and behavior, it was clear that my guess was not wrong; brother Rambo was looking for someone, even he was willing to spend his time on night patrol every day.


How can someone who is so lazy and flat about this feeling suddenly turn melancholy even faster in the week of his wedding? I don't know. But, tonight we both Kak Anta is trying to find the answer directly to Kak Rambo.


"What did Kania say?" ask Sister Anta.


Rambo sipped his saliva for a while, and then replied. "Not wrong" he answered.


"The one who always hides out of fear is a coward. Because the real positive energy can flow from his totality to what he is fighting for" said Kak Anta, half advising. "Sum tea first."


"Enough water," he said. "Ada?"


I nodded, without further ado, immediately returning to the kitchen to grab a small teapot of water at the request of Brother Rambo. Only then after arriving again in the front room, I poured the drink in Kak Rambo's glass and he immediately gulped it down.


"Thank you." Said Brother Rambo to me.


"Ext?" my many.


He shook his head slowly.


"Even you realize, I don't know what to call it myself. Could it be that I am feeling regret right now? or I was right to have lost my direction and purpose after canceling the wedding and again disappointing the family. I don't know, what I should have felt, which is for sure until now I still want to keep looking for the boy who gave this-" Rambo's sister reopened the chat, while then he took out another bracelet a pair of gifts Marwah that I remember most.


"Marwah," I said slowly as Rambo showed the box more clearly in front of us. "Sister Rambo is looking for Marwah until now? even for three months?"


"Yes, I think." Brother Rambo stared at the bracelet. "Don't three months, not even years I won't give up looking for him. Because I won't wear this bracelet with any woman but her."


"I can't answer that." Answer Brother Rambo flat. "I know, it's too late for me to come to her, while now she's gone a long way somewhere. But, just like the word I always say; trying is not necessarily successful, giving up is definitely a failure. So no matter where Marwah goes, and for years I'll keep looking for her, I won't give up."


"Why did it get that way? Is it because you love Marwah?"


Rambo was silent for a while. He then replied, even without looking at me.


"I said that I would never wear this bracelet with anyone but him. I don't think you're wrong, I've fallen in love with her."


"Why are you talking now, brother? why is it that after Marwah left, that feeling just existed? Brother Rambo does not know how much Marwah is destroyed by holding back feelings when he knows his brother is getting married. He loved her so much that he chose to go far away from here." I said almost hysterical. Beside Kak Anta who grasped my hand tightly, trying to keep me from getting out of emotions.


And Rambo is silent again.


"You've been looking for him for years? it's even been 3 months, and you're just torturing yourself with something uncertain, going here and there aimlessly. Even though you are a man, you are still a man, remember your age is soon 3 heads. Poor parents, they hope to see you get married soon." Said Sister Anta.


"That, it might have been a punishment for me wasting a girl like her. I was condemned by God to experience the pain felt by him, tortured by longing and buried in the heat of regret. Tortured because it continues to hold the shadow of love like a pearl that floats, only limited to mirages, not real. And it all really hurts." Obviously Brother Rambo.


"Don't think about me, you know for yourself I'm not a quitter. I'm sure I'll find him, if I don't know when. Looking for it wasn't easy, but if I gave up it just made me feel even more tormented."


Then I interrupted again, but this time with better emotions. "Aren't you sure?"


"A thousand percent." The answer.


...****************...


And all these are not just words. After that day, Brother Rambo proved it, he has tried hard to find Marwah even for years.


Until this day arrived. Brother Rambo still waiting for Marwah even though 2 years have passed.


Unfeelably....
