LOVE THE CHILDREN OF JURAGAN
Anniversary

How happy Naura was when Daffa told her that her brother had come with Yasmin. He who was making a cake immediately left his job and headed to the living room.

"Well, it's a pleasure to hear your arrival. We can have dinner together while celebrating 1 year of your wedding."

Yasmin was surprised to hear that. He did not expect that his marriage with Erdana turned out to be a year running.

Erdana kissed her mother's hand as did Yasmin.

"Where to go, ma'am?" ask Erdana.

"Dad is going to the garden. Maybe a little more will come. You guys just rest when you're tired." Naura.

"Let aunt's suitcase take her to the room" said Saima.

"Eh, don't bi." Erdana held Saima's hand that was about to touch her suitcase. She was almost the same age as her grandmother. He was very loyal to work with this family. Unfortunately Aisya's aunt died almost 3 years ago.

"Abang this. Aunt is still strong"

Erdana wrapped her hand on Saima's shoulder. "Auntie has been serving me since childhood. I'm an adult now so I'm independent."

"Then auntie just quit her job here." Saima so pouted that Erdana immediately kissed the old woman's cheek with anxiety.

Everyone laughed at the interaction between Erdana and Saima. In Yasmin's heart was amazed by Erdana's kindness.

"Madamma, the cake is almost ripe" Wiwit said. One of the young maids. Niece of BI Aisyah.

Naura rushed to the kitchen. Erdana carried their luggage upstairs while Yasmin just stood by the stairs.

He closed his eyes for a moment. Remembering what happened a year ago in this house. Something was piercing his heart. Yasmin tried to throw away that feeling. He chose to leave the house.

Erdana who had just entered the room felt the same way. He recalled the incident a year ago that made him have to marry Yasmin.

This room has changed its design. The wall paint has even changed color. The bed has also been replaced. Maybe it was his mother who did this to erase the bad memories Yasmin had here.

Erdana stepped towards the balcony. He really misses this room. His gaze was immediately fixed on the tea plantation that was in front of him. The workers have gone home. As Erdana was about to turn her back, she saw Yasmin coming down the stairs. Looks like he's headed down. Yasmin stopped in front of the fence. Erdana saw her shoulders shaken. Is Yasmin crying?

Rushing Erdana down to bring it. He passed by Daffa who would greet him. Then get out of the house and head to the lake.

"Yasmine.....!"

Yasmin hurriedly wiped her tears and turned her body. "What's up, brother?"

"You okay?" ask Erdana. He could see that Yasmin's nose was slightly red indicating that she was crying.

"Yes, brother."

"If this place only reminds you of the bad memories that once occurred between us, we better go back to the city."

"No, sis. I'm...."

"I'm sure mom and dad will understand."

"No. I only remember it for a moment. That's natural, right? It's the first time we've come here since that event."

"How can you forget all that? That must have been very painful for you." Erdana once again regretted everything that had happened.

"That's it, brother." Yasmin patted Erdana's arm.

The two looked at each other. Seeing Yasmin's smile, Erdana felt relieved.

"Thank you for no longer holding a grudge for me" Erdana said, and she immediately grabbed Yasmin by the hand and hugged the girl tightly.

Yasmin surprised. Yet he returned Erdana's embrace with a trembling heart.

"Pardon it will make the wounds in our hearts heal faster, sis."

Erdana let go of his embrace. He rubbed Yasmin's head gently. "Come on up. The air's getting cold and we're not wearing coats."

Yasmin nodded. The two stepped together. While passing through the villa, Yasmin's eyes stared at the place. "This is also part of your house?"

"Yes. Mom and dad spend all day in this place."

"Sister, if I sleep here, can't you?"

Erdana stopped her steps and looked at Yasmin. "You seriously want to sleep here?"

"We will definitely be asked to sleep in the same room. And it must be in my sister's room. I don't think I'm ready to go into that room anymore."

"alright. I'll tell Aunt Saima to prepare a room in this villa for you."

Yasmin smiled happily. He stepped back with a cheerful heart.

**********

Elmira and Nick also come to the village. Naura and Vishnu also seemed happy because all their children were gathered.

They also ate happily.

"Happy anniversary for Erdana and Yasmin. May you continue to be together and open your hearts to each other." said Elmira make Yasmin's face slightly blushed. Erdana just smiled.

After dinner, Vishnu invited his son to speak on the front porch.

"How's your relationship with Yasmin?"

Erdana took a deep breath before answering him. "We've started to communicate well, father."

"Remember, learn to forget about the Mentari. If Mentari has decided to stay away from brother, then brother should be able to set the future with Yasmin."

"I love Mentari, father."

"Then if you still love, will forever brother and Yasmin relationship will not progress? Brother there must be an attempt to get close to Yasmin."

"Don't look back, bang. Look ahead. Brother has to take responsibility for Yasmin's life because of the brother who ruined her. Mom and Dad married without love. But I kept trying to get your mother's heart. I'm also trying to grow love in your heart for your mother. And it turns out I made it."

"We were 7 years together, yeah. It doesn't feel young to just forget about Mentari."

Vishnu tells about his love story with Dina. "Dad used to feel it was impossible to love another woman other than the father's first wife. But everything has to come from your own desire. It will work long ago too."

Erdana just nodded. Her father's words made her think for the future of her relationship with Yasmin. Although for Erdana it is very difficult to forget the Mentari who has so long filled his heart.

The conversation ended when Naura asked Erdana to bring a blanket to the villa.

"What are you talking about?" naura asked as Erdana was gone.

"I was just advising her to get her marriage to Yasmin right. Yasmin has changed a lot."

Naura nodded. "I really love Mentari. He was the son of the late Ivory. I thought, if Erdana and Mentari get married, then we'll take care of Mentari through Erdana. But the story is like this. How else would you like? The same as Ivory. Always succumbing to the happiness of others."

Vishnu nodded in agreement. "Yes. He has always maintained the friendship between us by continuing to work for my company. On the matter of the Jeslin family needing him in their company. I don't know where the girl is. Jeslin seems to be getting away from us."

Naura placed her head on her husband's shoulder while wrapping her stairs around Vishnu's waist. "I miss Jeslin too."

"We pray for Mentari to find her happiness. Now we're in, yuk! It's getting colder." take Vishnu.

Naura nodded. The two of them put their fingers together and walked into the house. Nick, Elmira and Daffa are playing cards. Naura and Vishnu joined them.

**********

Erdana pushed the entrance of the villa slowly. Outside the sky was already very dark. Looks like it's going to rain. The air can get very cold.

Yasmin was sitting watching TV in the living room. He turned his head towards the door and smiled when he saw Erdana coming in.

"I thought you were asleep" said Erdana.

Yasmin smiled. "Not sleepy, brother. It's only 9 at night anyway."

"I put the blanket in the room ya." said Erdana then immediately headed to the room to put the blanket on the bed.

Erdana went back outside and sat down near Yasmin. The girl was watching a Korean drama apparently.

"Why are girls now crazy about Korean dramas?" erdana asked starting the conversation.

"Don't the girls, many mothers also like Drakor. Maybe because the storyline is romantic and the guys are a lot of handsome." replied Yasmin without taking her eyes off the TV screen.

"If you're alone, what's the reason for liking Korean dramas?"

"Yes, that's why. Handsome Korean guy."

"And many handsome Indonesian guys. There are also many synetrons."

"Maybe because Indonesian soap operas are too long. Finally got bored. Korean dramas are sometimes only 20 episodes but are very satisfied with the story." Yasmin said as she occasionally glanced towards Erdana.

After that, the two kept quiet. Drowning in the story. It got to where there was a scene of a male and female lead falling together on the floor and finally kissing each other. Reminds about the incident in the hotel room while they were in Lombok.

Yasmin's face became hot. Erdana seems to be wrong.

A sudden sound of thunder could be heard followed by a blackout of electricity.

"Ah......!" Yasmin shouted in shock as she approached towards Erdana and directly hugged the man tightly.

"Silent, just the sound of thunder. It was raining like it was starting to fall." said Erdana while rubbing Yasmin's back so that the girl became calm.

"I'm scared, brother. The old electricity isn't just on?" yasmin asked as she continued to drown her head in Erdana's chest.

"It usually doesn't take long. In the main house there is a generator. It doesn't exist here." Erdana was about to stand up but Yasmin was getting tighter and tighter in her arms.

"Don't go, brother."

"I'm just looking for a candle."

"take...!" Yasmin stood up. He hugged Erdana's waist and followed wherever Erdana walked. Eventually Erdana found candles and matches in the pantry drawer. Erdana placed the candle in the candle holder that was there.

After the candle lit up, Yasmin slowly let go of her stairs which hugged Erdana's waist.

"It's better to just sleep. If it rains like this, the electricity will sometimes be a new morning" said Erdana.

"I slept alone?" ask Yasmin. Imagining himself in this villa in a state of dead lights makes his book stand.

"You want me to be with you? There is no sofa in the room."

"We can share a bed. Then wear bolsters for the limit. Come....!" take Yasmin while pulling Erdana's hand towards the room.

Arriving at the room, Erdana placed the candle on the nightstand. He then closed the window blinds and went up to the bed again.

Yasmin who was already lying down suddenly shouted and hugged Erdana again as the sound of thunder grew stronger and stronger followed by the sound of the wind blowing fiercely.

"Yes, I can't believe it. I'm still a normal man." said Erdana as Yasmin's body clung to Erdana's chest.

Yasmin looked up. Under the candlelight their gazes met. Yasmin's open lips were so seductive to Erdana.

"I want to kiss you." said Erdana in a hoarse voice and instantly fused their lips together in a soft but passionate kiss.
