The Cute Bocil Om Army
The Part 35

Cempaka held her breath looking at the husband in front of her. His gaze was so bold and now there was a sudden sadness in their midst. Cempaka also wondered why Naskala suddenly felt a panic.

"Om why do we daydream?"

Naskala was not ready to say what was causing her concern. He did not want Cempaka to make it a burden.

"You know that I'm a soldier, if one day I have to go to another city or another country do you still support it?" naskala asked with eyes so sad.

Cempaka also recalled how his mother was often abandoned by his father to those who lived in the house together without a man figure protecting them because his father did a noble task to protect many people. It was also when his mother was sick that his father was not on their side until in the end his mother closed her eyes forever. The church is not ready to be abandoned.

Fear and trauma still haunts him. There is also a residual sense of disbelief if all of them who have stopped in his life go one by one. Now only Naskala is left behind and Cempaka is afraid that the man will leave him. Cempaka is unable to live in the world without a clear purpose of his life.

"Cempaka don't want to! Cempaka wants to be the same Om!"

Naskala could only sigh long. It was expected that Cempaka's reaction would be like this. This is why Naskala doesn't want Cempaka with her. Times like this are hard for both of them.

"But that's my job too."

"I don't care."

"You can't be selfish. When I was inaugurated I was already a state property no longer yours. You only have me half and I belong entirely to the state. I've agreed to my choice."

Cempaka took a deep breath and clenched his hand. Really pleased his life. Traumatized, let alone the father died while on duty. How could he accept that fact so soon?

"Om not sure you're scared."

"I know."

"But Cempaka also can not prohibit Om to be in charge of guarding the country."

"How's it?"

"No way to."

"Cempaka wants to come."

"If I get caught I'll be scolded and punished."

"Let Cempaka alone" was a hard woman who did not understand the truth.

Naskala took a long breath. Cempaka is not yet fully mature. He still needs a companion.

"You think it's that easy?"

"Keep Cempaka how you doing?!!!" Cempaka actually shouted and cried and clasped her husband's burly arms as if forbidding the man to leave.

Naskala smiled between her teary eyes. He tried to be strong even more so he was a soldier and the army had to be strong.

"Trease! You don't make your husband's steps waver."

Cempaka hugged Naskala's hand tightly and cried continuously. She tried to ban her husband but he could never stop Naskala's work.

"Om gonna leave me alone here, okay?"

"It's not my wish."

"I know. But Cempaka was scared."

Naskala convinces Cempaka and rubs the woman's head full of affection. He promised to look after Cempaka from afar.

"Wish I could get through this."

One thing Cempaka does not know is that Naskala is trying to uncover the case that has haunted their lives so that he can find out what the purpose of his departure to the border even though it is clear he is a soldier and it became his duty.

However, Naskala was still convinced that she had been arranged by someone. Naskala had to quickly solve that problem. It is up to him whether or not he will stay put.

"God willing, I will stay here for you and stay here."

Cempaka looked into Naskala's eyes deeply.

Naskala nodded.

Reyhan approached Cempaka quietly in the back garden of the school. Cempaka was very surprised when he got a message from Reyhan who wanted to meet him.

Cempaka looked at the man in front of him this really with concern. He didn't expect Reyhan to be taken care of.

"You're really out of the house?"

"Why am I staying there?"

"Aren't you afraid?"

"They don't care either."

"Why are you here?" asked Cempaka while glancing at Reyhan from above.

"Because I want to see you."

"What's wrong?" ask Cempaka astonished.

"You should be careful. I just found out that my family's that mean."

Cempaka also began to be interested in their discussion. Not intending to talk to other people's family problems, he would still feel if there was something in the story that Reyhan was about to tell and it seemed to be about him.

"What indeed?"

"My father! They're a bunch of bad guys trying to fight the country. You know if my dad owns an illegal business? He worked with the state to run his business. The traitors of the state also agreed. For those who know the matter, they will die." Cempaka who heard it also shuddered. "While Om Toha, Aunt Adhila has known it until they have to die" said Reyhan who made Cempaka distrustful.

"Astaghfiullah! You can't make a weird accusation."

"You don't believe it? You can ask your Kaka if you don't believe it. I think right now the only people who know are your brothers and they're targeting Naskala's sister."

Cempaka was surprised and looked at Reyhan deeply.

"You don't lie."

"What am I lying to?"

Cempaka's legs are weak. He did not believe what he heard and hoped it was all a lie.

"Hiks, that's impossible. Are they evil?"

"I don't want any of this to happen either but how can we prevent it?"

"That's it."

Reyhan had known from the beginning that Cempaka's reaction would be like this. He took a deep breath and prepared a solution for this.

"I'll help you guys. I also don't want to be labeled a traitorous child of the country when I never really feel like they are. I want to clear my name in front of the country."

Cempaka looked at Reyhan with a sparkling look.

"Are you serious?"

"Yes I'm serious. Tell Naskala I want to see her."

Cempaka nodded, "definitely."

They split when the bell rang. Cempaka quickly returned to school before being summoned by the teacher.
