Tama And Ratna
101. Missed you

It's been 2 weeks Tama's gone on duty away from home. Ratna had to survive alone. Take care of all the needs of the house and the characters alone. Want how else, this is the toughest devotion as a companion state servant. When here Ratna must struggle to fill the figure of Mother and Father for the character that continues to grow every day.

In his days his prayers continue to lead to the husband who is challenging the danger to provide the safest place for his family as well as for all citizens who live. Ratna never knew how heavy the burden was on her husband. Although Tama always tells everything every time they video call, but who can feel the weight is only Tama himself. Ratna could only rely on her prayer, on her hope that God would always protect her. Always give her safety.

There is one custom Ratna always does when her husband goes off duty, Ratna who almost never watches tv will continue to listen to the news. When at home the tv never dies and always broadcasts the news he is looking for. In her phone, she always updates the latest news about the development of the place where her husband works because this is the only way for her to calm down.

"Astaghfirullah Mas, continue you do not papa? The wound is deep no?" ask Ratna.

"Dear, you don't have to worry."

"Why not worry. That's you wound in the abdomen, if it's a little deeper the wound can be serious. Why are you so relaxed?"

"If I panic, how would I calm you? Aksara is sleeping, surely? It's like midnight like this" Tama asked, distracting Ratna.

"It has. This day he was fussy, crying kept nyariin his father. Fortunately, the jacket you used was not yet washed. Pas I blanketed with your jacket and put it to sleep on the pillow you used to wear Aksara can go straight to sleep" Ratna said.

"I'm sorry this is my job. On previous tasks only you are the one who Mas stayed, but this time we have to explain the same Aksara if his father was a soldier. His father was a bhayangkara who served the country" Tama said attentively.

"He must understand. Let me explain it to him. Let me make him understand that Dad's not his whole thing" Ratna said.

"Udah ah so melow gini the hell we. How is it today? Your work?"

"Mas, you know I don't want to cry today."

"Why Mother? The story here, Dad is still free," said Tama.

"Ethah Mas know or not, today at the intersection Condongcatur there was a fatal accident Mas. Many victims were taken to my hospital" Ratna said.

"Yes Mas heard from Ndan Rendi this afternoon," replied Tama.

"I was in the IGD dealing with Mas's patients and there was one victim who died from a hard impact on the head and chest until finally died after surgery. Mas know, his wife was pregnant again Mas, and so shocked his wife early contraction and the husband died," explained Ratna.

"Innalillahi wa innaillahi rojiun, so the victim was the Mother who...,"

"I'm the one who handles it. I was also the one there when her heartbeat went away. Even worse I also saw his wife died giving birth to his daughter and finally chose to go to follow her husband," said Ratna who ended up crying even though she was still resistant because she was afraid of Aksa and Uli who she asked to stay awake.

"Mas..., you promised you'd come home safe, didn't you? I'll wait. I don't care if I have to be away from you. As long as I know you're okay I'll be fine too. You are not the only leader for your family. On your shoulder there are many other family leaders depending on your orders. Mas, every decision you make should think about that as well. Because I don't want commander Aji to be considered bad by people especially by his own members" Ratna said.

"Mas will always remember your advice, my dear. Already yes, do not cry anymore dong. We're so far away, I can't hug you. If in 5 minutes your cry is not finished Mas will run around the barracks 100 times," said Tama.

"Well, if that's what I want to cry just let Mas run away. If you can't wear clothes. Let it be cold let it know the taste" Ratna said.

"Your tenant dek," lamented Tama.

"Well, if you think about it, then. He said the commander was talking recklessly anyway," Ratna said.

"Yes, we were crying mau. What matters now is that you are not crying. It means that Mas successfully made you stop," said Tama with a laugh.

"Bodo is ah. Too bad mood, hooked with you Mas, run there. 50x around the barracks, run out of it push-ups, sit-ups, each 100x 3 sets. Don't want to know I have to send you new evidence I want to diem. If not your Friday night ration drifted 3 months," said Ratna who rather prank her real husband.

The next morning Tama actually did what his wife ordered last night. Instead he had to be tormented for 3 months without the caress of his wife. You see Adiratna if you have said you do not want ya really do not want. She will close her clothes tightly and do not hesitate to wear layered clothes just so that her husband's hands do not look for trouble when he sleeps.

Tama asks Bayu to record Tama running around the barracks bare-chested. She also had Bayu record her doing a push up sit up then report it to Ratna. That morning Bayu held a Tama cellphone that continued to be connected through video calls even though the signal was a little stalled. He could see his commander's wife was busy taking care of breakfast, feeding her young son. Indeed, the screen is only directed to the roof, but from his voice Bayu can guess what Bu Aji did.

"Keep running away and don't miss Ji" said Bang Nanda.

"Ealah Bang, this too has run. It's been 30 rounds" Tama said.

"Sorry correction clearance, commander. The correct 23 rounds instead of 30 rounds," Bayu said innocently.

"Dad..., dare to lie huh? Extended by 4 months" Ratna said, making Tama run again.

"Crickets," complained Tama made Bang Nanda who was there laughing out loud. How he did not laugh, only yesterday he handstand around the barracks because his wife who was cravings and now his letting sister who hit a wife rampage.

Nanda walks away from Tama who continues to try to persuade his wife instead of doing her punishment well. He walked to the soup kitchen and checked if breakfast was ready. Nanda was sent as reinforcements, following Tama's company which left first. This morning his picket was taking care of the soup kitchen along with several officers from other units. Just a few steps, he saw near the well of Bang Rendi who was being scolded by his wife on the phone sounding evil.

"That's it. Why is this morning filled with the tantrums of the wife he wonder. Though the atmosphere again anteng, the sky of Papua is clean. The scenery is green unsightly but if while having a tantrum wife so can enjoy it," muttered Nanda who was enjoying the green of the land of Papua.
