The LOVE Of Guardian's
Chapter 29. Without you, I'm OK

After being trapped for two days because the weather continued to be unsupportive, Siska finally managed to land at Halim Perdana Kusuma Airport. The woman took a taxi alone to her apartment. Intentionally, to teach Kenanga a lesson.

Siska just arrived at her apartment building. But just as he was about to take the elevator, he saw Kenanga's teammates coming over.

"Doctor Siska? Long time no see!" greet Panji.

Siska smiled, "Hi everyone." he greeted her while waving his hand.

"Aren't you going to be there for 3 months? I think you came home a little quickly." said Bagas.

Siska ruffled her waist, "What if I go home sooner? I served two months there. Incidentally there is an empty seat for the return of the first kloter so I will occupy it." he explained.

Bagas nodded in understanding.

"But why are you all here? Want to see Kenanga?" ask Siska.

"Lieutenant is sick, you don't know?" ask Riko.

"Huh? She sick?" Riko nodded.

Siska was silent for a moment and then just woke up. "Ah, this has already started to enter the dry season. Kenanga always got sick in the beginning."

"We'll see him. He didn't go to work today. Danjen and his wife are on vacation. We also know you won't come home today, afraid Kenanga won't eat well. The conditions will be severe." Angga explained.

Siska nodded in understanding, "Yes already. Just go upstairs" he said.

Siska also entered the elevator, followed by all members of the Rajawali Team.

Elevator tolling. They also got out of the elevator. They walked to the Kenanga unit. Siska reached the door first. He's dialed a number of passcodes.

"I forgot that you share the same house." said Riko.

Siska smiled slightly, "Literally, this house is Kenanga's house. I just hitchhiked to sleep and eat." she said, pushing the doorknob.

Rajawali's team was about to enter but their path was blocked by Siska.

"What's wrong?" ask Bagas.

Siska smiled sweetly, "Hehe, this is the home of single women. If you go straight in, fear that Kenanga is in an unexplained situation. So, let me check it out first and then I'll let you in, okay?"

They also nodded.

"Thank you for your willingness" Siska said. The woman leaned over slowly and then turned back into the apartment.

"KINAME!" scream from the door. Siska walked in when she did not hear Kenanga's voice.

But as soon as he entered the living room, Siska was immediately shocked as she looked towards the kitchen.

"OH MY GOOD, I REMEMBER!" pekiknya shock.

Brucks

Alfin managed to catch Kenanga in time. But Alfin also fell because of slippery and finally their bodies hit each other with Kenanga on it. Alfin let his back hit the floor.

Kenanga and Alfin were not yet aware of their current position. They looked at each other at such a close distance. Both frozen.

"KINAME!" the screams of someone shocked the two of them. Up-to-date

Cup

Kenanga accidentally kissed Alfin's lips under her. The woman's eyes were wide.

"OH MY GOOD, I REMEMBER!" pekik Siska shock.

Kenanga's eyes opened wide when she found Siska there standing so shocked. Kenanga hastily got up.

"Siska!" yang Kenanga panicked.

Kenanga was about to open her mouth again but Siska's hand was raised telling Kenanga to stop.

The woman wordlessly ran towards the door. I heard the door shut hard.

"Wake up." said Kenanga nudged Alfin's leg which was still lying on the floor.

Alfin tried to get up though while grimacing. He held her painful waist.

"You okay?" ask Kenanga.

Alfin nodded, "It's okay. Just a little pain." said Alfin.

While on the other hand, Siska again approached the Rajawali Team.

"Maaf ya semuanya, tapi ada sesuatu hal yang mungkin akan membutuhkan waktu untuk kalian menunggu dulu." ujar Siska.

"What's wrong? Kenanga's fine, right? Why are you yelling?" ask Bagas streak.

Siska grimaced, "Um.she.is fine. It's just that Kenanga is in a difficult condition to explain. So wait a minute. Looking down below is no problem either. Or how about seeing her get canceled?"

"Huh?"

Siska rubbed her nape, "Because it looks like Kenanga is in a condition that can not be found at this time."

"Why? The pain is worse?" serbu Panji is worried.

"Ti-dak too. Just.ah, the point is, later visit it yes." said Siska about to close the door.

"Eh wait." Prevent Bagas. Siska stopped her actions.

"You sure Kenanga's okay? We want to see him."

"Kenanga's condition is fine. But he really can't be found right now. His condition is a mess."

"You mean messy, she hasn't had a shower? Its alright. I've seen worse than that." said Bagas.

"Not that. Still mending it like that."

"Then what?"

Siska was silent for a moment, "He spilled a sack of flour in the kitchen and slipped. So I asked him to rest first." Siska setengha is lying. Let alone telling Kenanga to rest, she would instead interrogate him all-out after this.

"What's? Slipping?!" exciting Bagas.

"But he's okay. Now he's resting. Don't bother him first, will you?" pinta Siska's.

Quickly agreed. I really want to ask all-out to Kenanga Inner Siska.

"Captain, let's just go home. As Siska said, the Lieutenant is resting. We can't bother him right now" Riko said.

"True captain, let's just go home." - Timpal Angga.

Bagas was silent, he then sighed softly.

"Yes." The man finally agreed. "We'll just go home. But after Kenanga wakes up, tell her she's still sick, let her go again tomorrow. Don't force. We'll see him again."

Siska nodded steadily, "You take it easy."

"We're leaving. See you." said Bagas immediately went with his shoulder lunglai.

"Bye." Siska waved her hand. Finally one by one the members of the Rajawali Team left.

After confirming that they had entered the elevator, Siska hurriedly returned to the house and closed the door.

***

Kenanga and Alfin sat side by side on the sofa. Siska was staring at the two of them. Siska shook her head when she saw the chaotic appearance of the two. Their hair, face, clothes all over their bodies were full of flour stains.

"Say, why is there a sack of flour on the floor? You guys are playing a flour war?" ask Siska.

"I spilled it." answered Kenanga flatly.

"Why?" ask Siska.

"Make a cake."

"Huh? Make a cake to get this mess? Remember, if you count it, with the flour you spilled you can make dozens of cake pans!" omel Siska's.

"There are some mistakes."

"What mistake?"

Kenanga let out a peck of annoyance, "Can you stop asking that? Very curious."

Siska gaped in disbelief. He cleared his throat briefly, "We changed the topic. What were you guys doing? And who are you?" Siska pointed at Alfin with a sharp glance.

"I'm Alfin." replied Alfin.

"Alfin? I think I've heard it."

"Huh?"

"Your name sounds familiar." said Siska thinking. "Ah, you're Satya's friend, right? Isn't he?!" yells.

Alfin nodded his head.

"It is fitting that I have heard of it, it turns out that his friend Satya. So, what were you guys doing?" tanyanya returned to the focus of the conversation.

"Siska you keep going around and around asking questions that don't matter." said Kenanga.

Siska glared at Kenanga, but Kenanga was just indifferent. "Then tell me, what happened?"

"I slipped and Alfin caught me and we fell together. Keep coming and already." explained Kenanga lazy.

"What do you think is all that much more?"

Siska fell silent then nodded her head.

While Alfin secretly glanced at Kenanga who continued to stare straight. The woman seemed to be unaffected by anything about her kiss earlier or maybe she was just pretending?

While Kenanga secretly swallowed her saliva. The memory of the kiss haunted his mind. Therefore he did not dare to look at Alfin. Afraid that his face would explode with nervousness.

"But I still need to interrogate you about your marriage. Why are you suddenly getting married? Right because it's betrothed?"

Kenanga and Alfin fell silent, no one answered Siska's question. Siska.

"My jawab. I'm not a statue, helo!"

"So you came home because of this?" kenanga Reply.

"Huh? Whatchu mean?" ask Siska confused.

"Nothing." said Kenanga indifferently.

"You're really weird" Siska commented.

Drrt

Kenanga's phone happened to be shaking. He checked the notification of the incoming message and was immediately stunned.

"What's wrong?" siska asked realizing Kenanga's unusual attitude. Alfie looked at him too.

Kenanga put her phone back in her pants pocket, "Nothing. I have business. I'm leaving first." he said suddenly.

Kenanga got up and walked to her room. Siska and Alfin looked at each other. They sniffed the shoulders of the ignorant omen that had happened to Kenanga.

Before long, Kenanga came out of the room. He changed his clothes and his face looked wet with water. The woman's coat was back flat.

"Where are you going? Who sent the message?" ask Siska curiously.

Kenanga who was wearing shoes immediately turned her head, "My father." she replied briefly. A second later, he finished wearing his shoes.

"I'm leaving. If you're still curious, just ask Alfin." he said and left the house.

After Kenanga died, Alfin was about to leave secretly. But Siska looked at him without a sound.

"You." pointed it at Alfin, "Sit's quiet here first."

***

Kenanga walked over to the table where sat a middle-aged man who still looked fit and dashing. He's Rafa, his papa.

Without any greeting, Kenanga immediately sat in front of him.

"You want a drink first?" ask Rafa.

"no need. Just get to the point." said Kenanga flatly.

Rafa nodded. "How are you preparing for your wedding?" tanyanya started the conversation.

"No how-how." answered Kenanga.

"Loh, it's your wedding. And it's only been a week. What do you call no how-how?"

"Everything is taken care of by Aunt Meilani. I just know it's settled."

"How can your marriage be prepared by someone else?"

"She's my aunt, not someone else." said Kenanga.

"Then about your future husband, are you sure of him?" ask Rafa again.

"What exactly do you want to tell me?" tugut Kenanga. Tired of pleasantries.

"This is what Papa wants to tell you. Papa wants to hear about your wedding preparations." explains Rafa.

"You don't need to know because the one who is married is me." said Kenanga.

"Alright, you're right." said Rafa relented. "Papa's going abroad on h-days but before that papa will still come to your wedding."

"No need to come." said Kenanga.

"How come papa does not need to come while the one who will marry you is papa?"

Kenanga nodded her head, "Ah right, you're not dead yet."

"Yet!" rafa Tegur.

"After my marriage, you can go." cut off Kenanga.

Rafa sighed softly. He tried to calm his sad feelings mixed with disappointment.

"Why are you like this? Is that how you hate papa until you always tell papa to go? Is it because of your mom?" ask Rafa.

Kenanga stared intently at Rafa, "Never mention your mama's name by your mouth." pressed Kenanga.

"Yeah, is that papa's fault, your mom died and papa remarried? Is it wrong to give a new mother to you? Papa just doesn't want you to be lonely and lose a mother's affection."

"Fuck it all. Everything you said was a lie. For me? Cih, it feels like I'm so fed up." said Kenanga holding back her bubbling emotions in her chest.

"Yama-"

"You always say for me, is it wrong? , papa did this for you. In fact, there's never been anything you've said to me. I not only lost my mother, but my father. You may still be here, but your heart is somewhere else. In your heart, there is no longer a mama so stop acting like you are a victim and have the right to do this. If not, then you are the most hypocritical person."

"Yet, why can you say such a cruel thing to your own father? Do you guarantee that your future husband will not be like papa?"

Kenanga laughed without a sound, "He's not you. Nothing worse comes through you."

"Remember, you are a State Servant. Your body and soul belong to the state. You'll leave it in no time specified. You won't be able to be with him all you want. Are you sure he won't mind? You sure he'll wait for you to come home without betraying you?"

Kenanga was speechless in disbelief from Rafa's mouth.

"You wish he was just like you? You expect my marriage to be ruined?"

Rafa immediately panicked, he shook his head violently, "Not Kenanga, not like that. Papa-"

"I've always been convinced that there's a reason why you keep a guy like you, maybe because his heart is rock or he's a superhero who has more patience. And now I am more convinced of my opinion. Don't you feel like you agree?"

"His work is very solid but he still defends to give time to your togetherness. Every time you finish the job, mom always runs to you to complete her longing. He's willing to walk five kilos in the middle of the night just to surprise your birthday. Every time you fight, your mom will cry and try to apologize to you, which is not her fault. Don't you think all these actions are so absurd? Why would he waste his time just for you?"

Rafa's speechless. He was shocked to hear the story of his past flowing from Kenanga's mouth.

"Shocked? Me either. I know from Aunt Meilani." said Kenanga answering a question in Rafa's head.

"Yeah, papa's sorry." said Rafa regretfully.

"Stop, don't apologize to me. Didn't I say, if I'm sorry I can treat the wound then I've recovered from the past." said Kenanga.

"Yet, papa-"

Drrt

Kenanga raised her palm cutting off any speech from Rafa. Instead, the woman picked up her vibrating cell phone. There's a message coming in from Alfin.

Alphin

Brother Anggi, I explained to Siska about our problem. He already understands. Don't worry about going home will hit him. Uh, but you're a lot better. Hehe. The point is be careful to go home.

Kenanga was stunned to read it. He did not reply to Alfin's message, instead, put his phone back in his pocket.

"Listen well." said Kenanga, she stared intently at Rafa. "After my marriage, please don't ever come to see me again. I want to live my new life in peace."

"It can't be like that, Kenanga. Papa and you are family. You can't live without papa." said Rafa.

"You're wrong, I can live without you. Without you, I'm fine." said Kenanga immediately got up from her seat and left just like that.

"Yet!" call Rafa.

But Kenanga pretended not to hear it. As he walked away, he promised not to look back. The woman silently wiped her tears.

I'll be fine.

***

Alfin had just returned from Kenanga's place. The man also finished his shower. Now, just wait for Maghrib time. And while waiting, Alfin threw himself on the sofa.

Tok

The sound of knocking on the door sounded. Alfin turned to the door and stood up. He looked at the intercom, there was Kenanga standing at his doorstep. Alfin opened the door.

"Sister Anggi?"

Alfin was quite surprised to see Kenanga standing in front of his door.

"What's up, brother? Oh yes, you're done with your brother's father?" ask Alfin.

"Alfin." call Kenanga. His expression was very serious.

"Yes brother?" sahut Alfin's.

"You're not going to be like my papa, are you? You'll wait for me to come home every day on duty, right? Won't let me run five kilos in the middle of the night just to say happy birthday right? Won't corner me every time we have a problem, right? We'll apologize to each other every time something goes wrong, right? We-"Like paused for a moment, he looked straight at Alfin's eyes, "Will be all right, right?"

Alfin was speechless hearing Kenanga's back-to-back questions.

Alfin then began to answer, "I-"
