Soul Pain
chapter 146

In the morning Boni invited Abi to perform dawn prayers. After praying he also wanted to pay to his village because he had to be ready to go to work.

“Gue stay no papa?” ask Boni.

“Lo go aja. I want to travel around the villa, all of you remember the same memories Larisa,” replied Abi.

Boni patted his best friend's shoulder gently. “Remember, Bi, don't feel sad. We will always be here for lo.”

Abi smiled knot. Boni's departure he also read some sheets of holy book of the Quran for peace of heart. Afterwards he began to walk around the courtyard in the villa.

He stopped right in front of the garden they had made together. Unknowingly his lips re-expanded perfectly. “Then this park we woke up to fill your free time in the villa, right, baby. Now look, the park is starting to go unkempt. Sister will clean again for you.”

Abi headed for the warehouse next to the park. Where all the equipment for gardening always kept Larisa there.  Endra and Davira who had just come out of the room noticed their son-in-law from behind the glass of the villa.

“If Abah is still alive, yes, Pa, maybe He will definitely accompany Abi as he used to accompany Larisa,” Davira said.

“Ma, stop. Now all we have to do is accompany Abi through her hardest time. Papa's sure he doesn't need Abah or Larisa. He certainly can, Ma,” replied Endra.

Davira nodded in agreement.

...🐌🐌🐌🐌...

“Where is Abi's sister, Mas?” ask Kania.

“He just needs time. Mas sure if Abi is here in the near future he can give up the departure of Larisa,” replied Boni.

“Hopefully, yes. I'm afraid that Abi's sister will actually be depressed. Kasian Kyra.” Kania said while helping her husband get dressed.

“As long as we're still around, Kyra won't lack affection. You and I will be the parents for him. Although later we have a biological child as well, Kira will still be our first daughter.”

Kania smothered her mouth to dampen her sobs.

Boni immediately grabbed his wife. “You must not be weak, you must also be strong, we must all be strong for the sake of Kyra.”

The woman nodded at her husband's chest. After easing the sadness, Kania wiped her cheeks and fixed her sad face to smile. “Now we go out and have breakfast. Kyra must have been waiting.

“Come!”

After breakfast, the three of them returned to Abi's villa. Before leaving for the Hospital, Boni wanted to make sure what Abi was doing. He was afraid that his best friend would spend a lot of time just pensively.

“Abi again clean up the park Larisa,” explains Davira.

“Thank God,” said Boni and Kania simultaneously.

“Then I leave for work first, Om, Aunt,” Boni.

“Iya, be careful on the road,” reply Endra.

“Later if there is anything with Abi directly contact me.”

“Pasti.”

“I'm here so, no need to worry,” by Viona.

Boni did not respond. He passed by just like that after shaving the hands of Larisa's parents.

“Kyra want to help Papa not?” ask Kania.

“By his email?” ask Kyra.

“Bby dong, babe. Come, Mami take to the park.”

Viona followed Kania's footsteps from behind. I don't know what he's going to do, he just wants to try and get close to Abi.

“Papa,” call Kyra upon arrival at the park.

“Iya, dear,” replied Abi.

“I can come with me?”

“Bby, here help Papa. We clean this park so Mama is happy.”

“I can come too?” ask Viona.

“It's best, Miss Viona, come with me. We help Bibik cook lunch,” sela Kania. 

Without warning Kania pulled Viona's hand from there. He doesn't want her to interfere with Abi and Kyra's time. Viona's face immediately turned irritated.

...🐠🐠🐠🐠...

Abi just nodded.

“Papa dear Mama gak?”

“Of course Papa loves Mama. Why are you asking?”

“If Papa loves Mama, Papa, can not be sad again. Mama will follow sad there.” Kyra said as she planted flowers in the excavation made by her father.

The words of the princess were able to make Abi speechless in position. The little girl was much stronger than him. 

“Udah, Pa. Now what are we planting flowers for?”

“Oh, yes, we plant this one only.” Abi handed one lily to the princess.

Finished gardening Abi invites Kyra to wash her hands inside the villa. 

“Bi, you don't have breakfast? From earlier you have not eaten loh,” asked Davira.

“Later, Ma. I want to help Kyra clean up first,” replied Abi.

“Let me be with Oma aja, Pa. Papa eat first there, Papa will be sick. Mama must be angry,” sela Kyra.

“Oh, yes. Papa will eat that.”

Kyra smiled broadly. Before coming down from the sling of the Papa, he gave a kiss on Abi's cheek. “Kyra darling, Papa.”

“Papa also loves Kyra. “ Abi also lowered the child to the floor. Then his feet stepped towards the dining table.

Arriving there he spread his gaze to the kitchen. Instantly the shadow of Larisa cooking flashed in her eyes, making her lower her head. “Now Brother can no longer smell the aroma of your cooking.” 

Abi raised his head to hold back the tears that were about to fall on his cheeks. With a deep breath and then exhaled. So that the lungs that begin to feel tight can return airy. 

“Taken, Brother, do not be looked at,” Kania said.

“Larisa?” 

“Not! It's me Kania, Brother.”

“Sorry, I thought it was Larisa.”

“Gak papa's. I really understand. I'm sorry I called her the same as Larisa called Kak.”

Abi just smiled knot.

“You want me a bribe, Bi?” ask Viona.

“No need, Vi. I can do it myself.” Abi began to scoop food into his mouth. 

Kania pulls Viona back from there.

“You why the hell?” viona asked annoyedly.

“Means, Mbak?” ask Kania.

“You seem to have deliberately kept me away from Abi.”

“Sorry, yes, Ma'am. I didn't mean it that way. I just want to give Kak Abi time alone to release her longing for Larisa through this villa.”

Viona snorted in annoyance. “Say if you are not willing if Abi will fall into my arms.”

“Indeed I prepared Abi sister to not be willing so? If indeed Brother Abi will fall in love the same, Ma'am, yes, I will certainly be happy because Abi is no longer alone. But I'm not sure as it is,” replied Kania while holding hands.

No longer willing to argue with Kania, Viona chose to leave from there. He will find another way to make Abi forget Larisa and turn to look at her.

...🐚🐚🐚🐚...

In the afternoon Abi chooses to enjoy time in the park. Where he and Larisa used to enjoy time together. Lent him eyes to recall their memories. The wind that touched the skin made Abi feel the touch of his wife. 

“You're coming, baby?” mummy Abi.

The caress on the cheeks and in the hair made Abi washed away by touch. The thought of the hand was about to be brought to the chest to be embraced, but because it felt very different made Abi open his eyes .”Viona?” bemused.

Viona gave her best smile. “Yes, it's me. I will always accompany you.”

Abi immediately sat down from the sofa. “Sorry I didn't mean anything. I thought it was Larisa. Then I go back inside.”

Viona nodded. His heart was so disappointed with Abi's attitude that he continued to imagine Larisa. Even it feels very painful if the touch was considered Larisa touch by the man she loved so much.
