My Love Sleeping Beauty's
The Mareth

Maretha's psychic condition slowly improves, but she is still often frightened suddenly. Especially after meeting with Robert Rebecca's father.

Umbara finds out if Mareth meets Robert, but he pretends not to know. At least the old man did not hurt her.

As usual, he will visit Martha after coming home from college. Umbara had already withdrawn his guard because of the request of Amel and Mas Danang.

Umbara entered Maretha's room and saw the girl sitting sweetly in bed reading a novel. And in the corner of the room a girl with glasses was busy doing something on her laptop.

"At what busy time?" asked Umbara as he entered.

"Jain duty," circus Lisda without turning his head.

Martha stopped her reading, she folded up the ends of the pages of the novel to serve as a delimiter.

"How are you?" he asked, holding Maretha's right face.

"I'm pretty good." she replied smilingly as she looked at Umbara's still worried gaze.

Martha held Umbara's hand bravely. Umbara was surprised by Maretha's reaction.

"Makasi ya kak already want to protect me all this time. Watching me all this time." said Mareth gently.

Umbara smiled, and now clasped his hand in love. "Color I don't want you to get hurt. I don't want anyone to hurt you." she explained.

Maretha. He was happy because there was a man other than Mas Danang who protected him. "Did Brother Bara really love me?," he asked suddenly suddenly suddenly suddenly made Umbara look shocked and happy.

Lisda who coughed because only this time Maretha was brave with a man. "Ohuk....Uhuk..."

"I'd better get out, you two talk" he said, then got up and walked out of the room.

After Lisda came out, Umbara looked back into Maretha's eyes intensely. "Re, I love even you. If you are sick, I feel sick too. That's why I don't want someone to hurt you, let alone hurt you like now to make you weak here." she explained.

Martha smiled again, "May I ask for something,"he asked again.

"I already know what you want, Re. I've dropped the charges against Rebecca. But that doesn't mean I'm just letting go" he said, then suddenly hugged Umbara.

Umbara fell silent, then returned the arms of Martha with affection. "I love you, Maretha!," he whispered in her ear.

"Me too."reply to Maratha.

They let go of the embrace, Umbara pecked at the head of Maratha. "Was it healing?,"

Martha nodded, "As long as Mas Bara continues with me. I'll heal quickly." he said.

"Huh, dreadlocks!," Umbara pinched Maracha's nose.

Umbara was pleased that his call had changed to Mas. Although Mareth had not realized that.

"What do you need?" asked Umbara again.

Martha shook her head, "Nobody, Mas." she replied.

Umbara frowns deliberately teasing Maretha, "Mas? did you call me Mas?" he repeated, blushing Maratha's cheeks like boiled shrimp.

Maretha was misbehaved, she only realized that her calling had briefly changed. "I-I.." he was confused and could not explain.

Umbara lifted Maretha's blushing face, "I like it, it means I've occupied the room here" she said pointing to Maretha's chest.

Umbara's phone is ringing. He took his phone out of his pants pocket. "I picked up first, baby!," his permission made Mareth blush even more.

Umbara stood by the window of Martha's room. He noticed someone who had just entered the hospital area.

"All right, I'll meet him. Don't let him meet her" she said, then cut off the phone.

Umbara approaches Maretha, "Sorry dear. I have to go see someone. You're fine here." he said.

The cup!! Umbara kissed Maratha's forehead again.

"I'm not long," he said again before Martha asked.

Umbara walked out then met Lisda who was waiting in front. "Please take care of Rere, yes!," he ordered, inserting his hand into the pocket of his right trousers.

"Okaya dong natapnya," ketus Lisda

"Gue doesn't want my boyfriend to do anything. Watch out if something happens." he threatened.

Lisda wasn't afraid, "You guys are already? Cih, Rere was very quick to answer." he replied with sarcasm.

Umbara looked at him sharply. Lisda shifted her eyes. He was also somewhat horrified by Umbara's gaze as before. "Oh yes, Mas Danang is heading here" he said again before leaving.

"Udah knows," he said chiming in.

"Good," then Umbara walked away from Lisda who was half annoyed with her attitude.

"Same as Rere is soft. It's a turn to each other, very tight and fierce," he said shuddering to himself.

Lisda went back into Mareth's nursery. He found the girl smiling to herself.

"Ciyeee is the same as Kak Bara's ketus."Lisda Goda.

Martha said, "Kok you are that," she protested.

"What is it?" Lisda asked.

"Why say Mas Bara ketus, he's good, and also attentive." he replied again still frowning.

Lisda laughed a little, "Hahaha. You must have said that because Kak Bara is dear to you. I don't know how he said the same to me. Especially if facing Rebecca, wiihhhh creepy and tsadis."

Martha frowned, "Times anyway?," she thought.

"But he is good. Especially the ones he loves. Brother Bara care so much." I'm Lisda.

Geck...Geck...Geck...

There was a knocking on the door. Martha raised her eyebrows. "Who?" he asked.

Lisda shrugged her shoulders, "Don't know. Let me see who's coming" he said, then walked to the door.

He turned the doorknob and pulled it a little. Tilting his head looked at the person who was knocking. Lisda smiled looking at that person.

He turned to look at the still Maratha with his wanted expression. "Who?" he asked again.

The door opened wide then a person with a crisp sound rushed into his arms.

"RERE!!," the girl hugged him tightly.

"Ohuk....Uhuk...!," he coughed.

"Lepasin Al, I can't breathe anymore" he said begging his best friend.

"I miss you, Re.," Alisya said.

Then followed by Fitri who also hugged him. As usual Aksar and Ridwan wanted to hug as well.

"Ets, you can't.!," stop Fitri.

"We will hug too" said Ridwan, singing his lips

Lisda already knew them, since they had met once at the airport. Then when Rere did the Video Call.

Martha was very happy because of the arrival of her friends in High School first. Alisya came with Fitri, Aksar, and Ridwan minus Vena. Because Miss that one is very busy in America.

Mommy hugs Mareth, "I miss mama!," he said starting to sob.

Maretha's body began to tremble, "Mother is also missing Rere." she replied while stroking her back gently. It flows her affection and longing for not meeting.

Mother let go of her embrace, she then put away the clear circle in Maretha's eyes. "Don't cry dong. Now the Mother is here." then kissed the forehead of her favorite girl long enough.

Mother then kissed the face of Martha to let go of her longing. "Mother's son!" he said again.

Mas Danang also gave a warm hug to his sister. He pecked the tip of his head and cupped his face with both hands.

"My little sister. Forever will remain my little sister" he said.

Danang and Mommy have seen the doctor first about the psychic condition of Martha. About Nyctophobia who reappeared in Martha. They already know what they should do.

The atmosphere of Maretha's room became crowded with their arrival. Mommy always accompanies Martha and pamper her. Mother helped him to take the medicine given by the nurse.

After taking the medicine, Martha fell asleep. Probably the effect of the drugs he took.

Lisda's phone sounded a notif sound.

No more reply from Umbara. Lisda was a little upset. "Huh the basis of the rich man, he likes to order prayers!," he lamented that heard by Alisya.

"Who is Lisda?," he asked with a peeking look.

Lisda's expression was flat, "Nothing." sarcasm.

Mother looked towards Lisda. "Lisda, do you know who helped Rere during his illness?" he asked.

Lisda smiled, "know what, auntie!," she replied nodding

"Don't call, auntie but call mom like everyone else" he continued

"Huh turn to talk to mother aja sweet expression that. Basic jutek girl" whispered Alisya whose end sentence was heard by Lisda.

"Who is jutek?," he asked circus and ketus to Alisya.

"Who else if not lo" said Alisya not to lose.

They looked at each other in annoyance. Fitri mediated the two so as not to have a fight.

"Did he come here often?" asked Mother again inquisitive.

Lisda sighed softly, "Iya bun. Brother Bara every day and every time you take care of Rere. We took turns to look after Rere. And.... Brother Bara is also the one who takes care of and finishes the girl who has made Rere kayak gini." explained Lisda make Mommy think.

Mas Danang already knew everything because he himself asked his men to find out. Fitri, Alisya, Ridwan and Aksar heard well. They also suddenly admired the figure of Umbara who became the helper of Maratha.

Lisda recounted all the events experienced by Martha. Until Marchha forgave Rebecca who was not approved by her friends.

"Ish, Rere always does. Very sorry for the person who has hurt him," his his hiss Alisya clenched his hands.

"I want to shake people," added Fitri gritted his teeth.

Lisda laughed, "Hahaha. Rebecca hasn't beaten me yet. But his minions I've been teasing." he grinned considering Emily and Laura's reaction.

They were chatting lightly while occasionally Lisda and Alisya were mocking and chiming in on each other.

"NO! Please, don't hurt me. I'm afraid here. Tolooonngg," Martha began to rumble back in her sleep.

Mommy and Mas Danang immediately ran to embrace his body which began to tremble violently. Full of sweat.

"Rere, baby. Mother is here" said Mother whispered in her ear.

"Rere, this is Mas Danang. You are not alone on the deck" he whispered.

Alisya cried to see the condition of Martha. He hugged Fitri and Lisda tightly. Memories are still printed clearly in their heads about the events of that time that made Maretha suffered from this disease.

Martha kept hysterical in her sleep. All the remaining events in the memories were repeated in his dream.

Mother tried hard to find Martha shaken like this. He's still messing around in his sleep.

Then someone barged in to hear the hysterical voice of Martha. That man was Umbara. He woke her up and held her firmly.

"Re, you don't be afraid. Now there's me here." whispered and slowly made Mareth calmed down.

Martha returned her embrace, her eyes starting to open. But his body was still trembling, his breathing was still hunting. Maratha ran a marathon.

Mother was moved to see the actions of Umbara who was able to calm her favorite child. Alisya, Fitri, Ridwan and Aksar look at each other. He asked who the handsome man was hugging him.

Lisda just shuddered. Umbara will certainly ask the cause of why the reaction of Maretha back like this. A few days ago, his condition began to calm down.

"Campus me," half-whispering averted his eyes.
