Han Beng was surprised, but then smiled and his hand stroked the hair of his lover's head. Of course the lover was crying because he was happy, crying because he was moved, perhaps remembering that he had no parents anymore.
He looked down and kissed the hair, kissing the forehead.
"Hok Cu, don't grieve dear. Indeed we both no longer have a mother father, but we now have each other is not it? Let me be your father's replacement and you'll be my mother's replacement! And one day, we go to our family village, we look for the family of our parents that still exists. Doesn't that mean we'll have a family again?" whispered Han Beng trying to comfort Hok Cu.
Han Beng's entertainment speech made Giok Cu more sobbing. Han Beng let it go for a while, then slowly he raised Hok Cu's chin, where he looked at the face that looked so sad.
The eyes were closed, but every time they opened a little, the tears flowed out. With a heart full of haru and affection, but also worried, Han Beng kissed the tear-soaked cheeks so that it felt salty by him.
It will refresh the heart if the heart is not so worried, if the cry is happy, not so sad cry.
"Hok Cu baby, what are you doing? please stop your crying and tell me, why are you sad? Shouldn't we be happy, happy? Oh, Hok Cu! don't tell me that you're grieving for being betrothed to me.." said the unfinished Han Beng.
Suddenly Hok Cu opened his eyes and looked reddish in those eyes and shook his head, tightening his embrace.
"No! Han Beng, no! Don't get me wrong, I'm .. I'm happy to be your soul mate, but I......." Hok Cu stopped his speech.
"What's the matter, honey? Why?" ask the curious Han Beng.
Hok Cu shook his head in the embrace of the young man.
"I can't be your wife, Han Beng. It is impossible..hiks ..hiks.........!" hok Cu replied with his cry.
"Eh.." cried Han Beng who was shocked.
"Why, Hok Cu? Why are you saying that?" ask the curious Han Beng.
Hok Cu rolled up his left sleeve and glanced towards the small red spot mark below his left elbow, then cried again, dipping his face in his lover's chest. Han Beng became even more confused.
Various kinds of conjectures were arising in his mind. It is clear that her lover was sad, not because of her match, but by some other reason about her.
"Would Hok say that she is not a virgin anymore?" asked in Han Beng's heart who remembered that the girl had once been Mo Li's disciple.
"If so, I wouldn't care! I love you Hok Cu!" the murmur in Han Beng's heart that clenched his teeth was strong.
She loves Hok Cu, not her virginity! Or is there something else? After all, Hok Cu had to speak truthfully. Otherwise, he will always feel tormented by all kinds of allegations that will arise at any time.
Han Beng then held onto both shoulders of Hok Cu, pushed gently so that they looked at each other.
"Hok Cu, tell me. I will accept whatever happens to you." whispered Han Beng who is now the two young people look at each other intensely
"But...!" hok Cu's voice was still doubtful.
"Hok Cu dear, look at me and listen to my words carefully. We are the ones who value bravery, right? We are the ones who are ready to face any hardship, not the weak ones who are whiny, right? I also know that you are a mighty warrior, not a whiny girl. Well, get rid of all those sad feelings, my love, my dear, and tell me what is tired of happening so you become so grieved after being betrothed to me" said Han Beng who tried to convince Hok Cu.
Gently Hok Cu let go of both hands, her lover who held both shoulders, elaborating both ends of the shirt shrunk her tears and stopped her crying. Then, with both red eyes, he looked at Han Beng, trying to gather the strength of his heart and opening his mouth to give an explanation.
"Han Beng.., I... I. I. do not deserve to be your wife.." said Hok Cu who then stopped again and closed his eyes because it was not strong to continue.
Hok Cu turned to the left right, and he saw that the soldiers were still cleaning and searching all over the place.
"Han Beng, let's get out of here talking in a quiet place" Hok Cu said later.
Han Beng understood what Hok Cu meant, then he took the hands of his lover who felt cold and then they left the place. The sky in the eastern horizon began to redden, a sign that the morning would soon appear in place of the night. They continued walking until they arrived at the deserted hillside.
Han Beng invited his lover to a big tree where the birds were busy welcoming the dawn.
"Well, it's deserted here, Hok Cu. Take out your heart and tell me everything. Remember, I am the one you love and love you, I am your future husband, and the only one you can trust. Well, tell me everything!" the Han Beng.
They stand facing close. Hok Cu stared at her lover's face in the dimness of dawn.
"Han Beng, I..... I.." said Hok Cu who returned the girl did not hesitate to continue.
He could not bear to see how the young man would welcome his testimony, he could not bear to see the confirmation that would occur on the face he loved, which would be shrouded in grief and disappointment very deep.
If he gives an explanation, it is the same as piercing the heart of his lover with a rusty sword rod, which is why he does not have the heart.
"Han Beng, I. I am unable to explain." said Hok Cu who returned to shed tears.
Han Beng's two hands caught both the base of his lover's arms and shook them slightly.
"Hok Cu you must be able to! Gotta.....! Can't you let there be a secret between us!" han Beng persuaded Hok Cu.
"Han Beng, hug me, hide my face so that I can tell it to you.." said Hok Cu who became limp and would stagger, if only Han Beng did not quickly embrace him.
Han Beng leaned on the limp body and invited him to sit on top of the tree roots protruding out from the ground. She after holding me the girl who had her head down on the chest of the plane, hid her face in that chest.
Now Hok Cu will not see the change in the face of his lover and the girl began to calm down, then softly, but clearly, he said.
"Han Beng, before will you forgive me?" ask Hok Cu.
