Love Lanterns
CHAPTER 106 “Worried The Over”

...“A promise? Why make an appointment if not necessarily able to keep it? Let the time that will continue to run by itself, if reunited yes thanksgiving. if not enough remembered only.” ...

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

“Excitement, Larisa” shouted Aletha.

Aletha raised her hand encouragingly for Larisa. And when Larisa saw Aletha who gave her spirit for her instantly her nervous sense was gone. Now Larisa is preparing to jump into the water immediately after the count of three.

One...

Two...

Three...

“Byurrr..”

Larisa finally plunged into the pool and immediately cheers from the entire audience rang out to scream ears. And that made Aletha reminisce about her teenage years. Always win the whole race especially in the sniper race. Aletha always got the first place because the sharp glances from both eyes were able to make bullets glide at the right target.

“Larisa..” shouted Aletha with excitement.

With all his efforts Larisa continued to swim with two hundred meters. In the second round Larisa has begun to fatigue, but he continues to fight for the champion and become a pride for both parents.

Other participants also do not want to be defeated just like that, they all still try to become number one.

“Arrggg..”

Suddenly Larisa stopped her movements and let all the other participants just go ahead of her. Aletha who saw her nephew was silent without any movement again as worry filled her. Because Aletha felt sure that something happened to Larisa. And it was not enough to just see Larisa from the audience seats.

“Larisa... aunty hope you're okay.” strangles Aletha while going down the stairs.

Because there was no movement from Larisa for ten minutes, the jury asked the rescue team to see Larisa's condition and ascertain what happened to the participants with the master number 356.

“Larisa, what's up? Why don't you make a move?” ask the escort teacher Larisa.

“My legs seem to be cramping, sir. Pain to move.” Larisa's eye light shows concern.

‘Why with him? What could He be ..’

“Hold my hand to take you to the edge of the pool. If not, your legs still cramp like that.” A teenage boy reached out his hand to help Larisa.

Having already felt a great pain in his leg, without any refusal Larisa followed the man's orders. Until finally Larisa was able to be given help after the man brought to the edge and asked Larisa to straighten her legs about twenty minutes.

“Wait until the medical team lifts your body with a stretcher.” The man left and let Larisa just look at him.

Aletha continued running and did not care anymore about how to walk in the race area. And while on the edge of the pool Aletha slipped because too much water splash from the race participants who brought the water and made the floor slippery. Aletha felt dizzy after hitting her head hard. Even slowly Aletha's eyes closed, she fell unconscious.

“Aunty..” shouted Larisa.

It felt like Larisa ran over to Aletha who was lying in front of her but, her legs still could not be moved. Only the poignant tagis was able to represent her worry about Aletha's condition. Even Larisa's two eyes were wide-eyed at the sight of fresh blood flowing down Aletha's legs.

“No, don't let Aunty Aletha have a miscarriage.” Larisa tried to stand up.

Everyone went down and gathered around Aletha, with Aletha immediately taken to the hospital for help. Larisa also goes into an ambulance accompanied by Arga. Only the two of them accompanied Aletha to Siloam Hospitals.

“Wiu... Wiu... Wiu...”

Think of it as an ambulance siren like that, man! Wkwkwk

Upon arrival at the hospital, the nurse immediately greeted the victim with a brace. Then Aletha's body was transferred to the top of the bracket and taken to the ER room to perform an examination. Larisa and Arga can only wait in front of the ER room.

“What if something happens with aunty, O God? Please save aunty Aletha and her baby.” Larisa pacing in front of the ER door.

“Please sit! If you do that it makes you feel anxious and also makes me. jengah.” Arga looked at Larisa.

“What did you say, puffed up? Look, my aunty is in there and I don't know what's going on even I don't know how Aletha's current aunty is. I was worried.” Larisa's tears just shed.

Arga breathed out his heavy breath, then he stood right in front of Larisa. Arga slightly lowered her head and her gaze locked onto Larisa's netra. And the two teenagers were staring at each other.

“I also feel worried about Aletha's condition. Do you know who I am?”

Larisa took a look at Arga's face until she finally recognized who the man before her was right now.

‘Dia... Arga.’

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

“What? Then how is Aletha's condition?”

“Aletha experienced severe bleeding, so that the fetus in the womb experienced danger.” The light of Luna through the air.

“Papa will come soon but... alone.”

“How about Keenan, Pa? Does He already know?”

“Papa will tell him later. Because He is undergoing training in the forest and can be ascertained there is no signal.”

Luna mangosteen, given the condition of Aletha who needs a lot of blood makes her have a sense of regret that is very stifling chest. But he also cannot blame Larisa for this incident after knowing the chronology of the events from the story of the companion teacher Larisa who accompanied Aletha.

“How is aunty condition, Mother? Aunty Aletha is okay, right?”

“Forcible Mother, Mother must be in charge of saving your aunty and her baby. You just wait here, grandfather will come soon.” Luna is back at work.

And after hearing that Bagas Kara was coming soon, Larisa felt even more guilty and scared. It even felt so jumbled, making his mind not calm at all.

“Do not grieve like that, just leave everything to God. Allah is the All-Mighty and He alone is the One who can turn things around.” Arga reviews the smile.

“Place your clothes with this shirt, fear of catching wind later.” Arga offered a plastic bag containing dry clothes.

Larisa nodded, but she was increasingly confused by Arga.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

“Pa, Aletha should do a caesarean section immediately. And we cannot decide that by ourselves, there must be Keenan who is Aletha.”'s husband

“Papa will attempt to contact him.”

Luna nodded, occasionally seeing the clock curled in her hand. And Bagas Kara is busy with his cell phone, he attempts to dial Keenan's number but is not connected. It makes Luna more nervous, because if Keenan does not come soon it will be ascertained the condition of Aletha and her fetus can experience danger that leads to death.

Both of Keenan's eyebrows were adrift, suddenly his chest felt tightness and worry just stopped. Making Keenan feel unsettled to do all his activities that are still on the edge of the forest.

And Keenan immediately contacted Bagas Kara again to ascertain what happened. If there was a sudden task for him. The phone line was connected, without further ado Bagas Kara explained Aletha's current condition.

“Aletha, why did this happen?”

Keenan proposes his motor sport at high speed to get to the hospital immediately. And Keenan's heart was troubled as he had to choose between two difficult choices. Makes him want to be buried alive so as not to experience anything unwanted. But that is impossible, because he is a soldier who must be able to live everything with fear. Until finally he decided that was his choice.

“Bismillah, Keenan will sign the letter. And sister Lina, Keenan will leave everything to sister Luna. If there is any hope to save our son, please save!”

Luna nodded slowly, after which she gathered her team to immediately perform a caesarean section. With the completeness that has been prepared, the medical team began to perform surgery on the stomach Aletha. And when Luna was able to estimate the good for Aletha and her baby, with the rest of the time available and Aletha's condition eventually the baby could be saved as well.

“Oek... Oek... Oek..”

The sound of crying suddenly stopped in the big family Bagas Kara after hearing the sound of crying baby so shrill filled the entire room. Keenan cried when his first child was born with a weight of only three ounces. Very less than the doctor expected.

“Keenan, please call your baby so that the nurse immediately takes him to the incubator room.” Luna gave the tiny baby into Keenan's sling.

Keenan immediately called for an adhan in his right ear for his petite. After that Keenan again gave the baby into Luna's sling.

“Keenan, what's his name?” ask Luna.

“Name... Alina.” Keenan smiled.

Alina Daena Mahendra was the name Keenan chose for his daughter. Which has the meaning of the sutras of heaven and useful science. And behind Keenan slip with his name, Mahendra. Because it was his God-given heart and in memory of his struggle with Aletha against the villain Keenan decided to slip his name.

And after that Luna returned to focus with Aletha, a sense of relief could be felt Luna after Aletha was able to pass the critical period that had worried. The good news was heard by all the hospitals and thanks to their prayers God granted the prayers of the good people, so that God gave Aletha a second chance to live a new life.

“Alhamdulillah Ya Allah,” said Keenan.

Keenan unceasingly mentioned the do'a in the hospital mosque, the thousand prayers he had the heavens so that God would give new life to Aletha, and it has now been granted for the sincerity of his love. And Keenan never stopped thanking God after getting the news that Aletha had passed through a critical period.

“Neng, Neng is a tough woman that Aa knows. Neng is able to pass the critical period, Aa is really grateful to Neng who has survived for Aa and Alina.” Keenan kissed Aletha's forehead.

Keenan was alone in the ER room because everyone was forbidden to enter in a mob. And the family only asked Keenan to come in, because for them Keenan was the source of Aletha's power to. immediately wake up after a critical period.

“It's okay if Neng can't open her eyes for now, Aa will keep waiting.” Keenan grabbed Aletha's fingers.

The feeling of affection enveloped Keenan, he could not bear to see the woman he loved was lying weakly on the hospital bracket with some tools attached to Aletha's body. But there was nothing Keenan could do but still ask Allah and ask Him to awaken Aletha immediately.

“Eat first, Ke.” Bagas Kara handed him a packet of nasi uduk.

Not Bagas Kara can not afford luxury food or do not love Keenan, but a soldier must be ready to eat anything and even that includes the most delicious food if on duty. Remembering Keenan and the other brave soldiers only ate snakes while serving in the forest.

“Let's just eat, Sir.” Keenan put his foot up.

Bagas Kara, Garda, Juan, Laura and Luna can only look at the pity of Keenan who looks so beautiful. The sadness that was so obvious made the other soldiers dare to die along grieving, given how the two struggle against the enemy. And Inspiration at all times heard the sentences they often said together. You jump I jump. that's the sentence that solidifies the relationship between the two.

“Hiks... hiks... hiks...”.

Keenan could not hold back his tears anymore when he saw Alina moving her legs and hands. Even his lips moved with a funny smile.

“What is your husband Brother Aletha?”

The sound made Keenan instantly turn his body. The face is so alien from the teenage boy who now faces him.

“Iya, but...who are you?” ask Keenan to make sure.

“Include, I'm Arga. I'm just a teenager who's been helped by Aletha's sister. Truly, Brother Aletha is such a tough and brave woman. I am grateful to know Aletha. And... I just want to give you this.” Arga gives chocolate bars to Keenan.

Keenan's heart again felt sad when remembering that time, a beautiful time with a pure promise from the heart. But often Keenan can not keep that promise, can not keep Aletha as well as his promise.

One bite went in and melted in the mouth, Keenan enjoyed it. Then the second, third bite and run out. Keenan felt a longing for Aletha in every bite of the chocolate bar. And while enjoying the chocolate bar Arga gave, small talk had accompanied them and was forced to stop when Larisa came to approach.

“Om Keenan's... Arga...” call Lyrih Larisa.

“What's Larisa? Did something happen to Aletha?”

”Not really, Om.” Larisa. “Larisa only.. would like to apologize to Om Keenan because this has happened because Larisa.”

“Not Larisa, it's not your fault. It is God's destiny that must happen. Already, don't discuss this anymore,”

Larisa nodded, the worry and fear that had clashed into one in Larisa now disappeared a little. Because there is no attitude of anger and blame from inside Keenan, even Larisa admits that Keenan is a man who is sholeh and fit to be Aletha's patient husband.

“And Thanks to you, Arga. Because before you help aunty Aletha you want to help me. This meeting was a beautiful meeting. Sorry if I was presumptuous, but.. will you promise me?”

“What?”

“Promise us to meet again.” Larisa raised her little finger.

Arga only smiled faintly when she saw Larisa raising her little finger, which seemed to want to tie a promise with her. However, Arga did not join in lifting his little finger and tie a promise with Larisa. Even Arga left Larisa. That made Larisa upset. Who initially praised Arga now actually hated and said it with a very bad word.

“Basic cocky guy. I thought I was gonna get a best friend, but I didn't. And I realized that you don't deserve to be my best friend, Arga.” Larisa Umbat.

Arga immediately stopped his steps after Larisa shouted with her anger, and every word Larisa spoke was able to capture Arga's ears very clearly. Likewise, Keenan who heard it immediately came out and stood in front of the door of Aletha's room to ascertain what happened. But Keenan was silent and only saw Arga was with Larisa.

One step...

Two steps...

And right on the third step Arga airs his voice.

“Appointments? Why make an appointment if not necessarily able to keep it? Let the time that will continue to run by itself, if reunited yes thanksgiving. if not enough remembered.”.

“And you should know.. We need to be arrogant as human beings, especially you. After all, we are still small, so why do we tie a promise that we can forget. While the sacred promise of adults alone can be forgotten easily, let alone our promise.”

Arga shook his head, then turned his body and resumed his steps regardless of Larisa.

Larisa is just glued, she tries to digest every word that comes out of Arga's lips. And Keenan who was still standing behind Larisa just stared at Arga's back that was disappearing and was no longer visible in Keenan's view.

‘I think it will be the same as what I experienced first. But. turned out differently. And that invites me to know who Arga.’ is Curiosity has shaken Keenan's chest.

Seriate...
