Opung Tolu's

Opung Tolu's
The deepest


The man was still patiently waiting for Tolu until a piece of his head on the sun that had begun to shine hot. Tolu has finished fasting mutih and do pemememedian with neat and scientific studies in despair. As usual, the girl wore a simple dress with a natural makeup polish. After seeing Tolu come down from the stairs, Togar moved from his place and hugged the woman. The longing was already unbearable even though he had to take a second blow after the wound on the head dried up.


“I miss you” whispered Togar.


Tolu's stiff body was reluctant to return his embrace. He pushed the man with all his might until his body slammed against the wall. The energy in the girl managed to shake the defenses of her legs, Togar moved back to embrace her. This time the man's embrace was so strong, that Tolu could not twitch or hit him.


“Let go of me!” bentak Tolu thrashing.


“My wife-to-be, don't you miss this husband of yours?” said Togar, hand movements rubbed his head.


“Do not touch! No one can hold my head!” bentak Tolu back.


Ani who was originally going to welcome her sister-in-law's candidate is now turning the bow after seeing the quarrel between the two and the treatment of Togar who relentlessly embraced his sister.


“They are like a little kid just” murmured Ani.


Tolu saw the roots running through Togar's clothes, black smoke forming a rope that bound his legs. Tolu's eyes glared, she cast a spell, suppressing the emotions that almost harmed her future husband. Togar slowly released his body but was pulled again by Tolu as if he was returning his embrace. But not with Tolu's mind still passing on the spell for the bond to slip from Togar's feet.


“Honey, thank you for returning my hug” said Togar.


A few minutes later the white smoke and roots disappeared, Tolu let go of his embrace and sat down on the sofa. His hand received a brown envelope, he frowned opening the contents of the envelope.


“Togar, I don't want to accept it” Tolu put that thing on the table.


“That's a leave from dad for you, dad also asked us to plant a flower in mom's late grave. Don't turn it down, baby, I don't want you to be an ungodly daughter-in-law” said Togar grabbed the envelope and put it in Tolu's hands again.

Inside the room, Ani fell asleep with a book lying on her face. Ani fell asleep without feeling Tolu took the book that hit her face and tried to wake her up many times.


“Kakak, I said leave for a while with Togar” said Tolu slowly went to close the door.


They headed to the public burial park located in the western part of the region. The last resting place of the mother who is always visited by Togar every week. They stood in front of the tomb of Miss Mawarni, sowing flowers and water together. Togar also plants frangipani bonsai flowers at the bottom.


They sent do’a to almarhumah, but when Tolu raised his hand and said Surah Al’fatihah in the heart, suddenly a strong wind rolled around the place. The crows flew, the clouds above the sky blackened.


“This is a lifetime sin that I must bear” Tolu murmured.


“Tolu, in front of my mother's grave I want to say that I sincerely love you” said Togar bending his knees.


The cold woman did not answer anything even she refused the chest of the Togar field until it almost fell.


"Don't expect more from me" Tolu said.


"Whatever your refusal. I will continue to fight for the woman I love. After a happy day then stay with your father, we invite Ani to join so that this family becomes complete" explained Togar.


"No! I can't leave my father and mother's house" Tolu replied.
