The LOVE Of Guardian's
Chapter 68. END

Kenanga is in her office. As usual he was struggling with his laptop, his friends were busy with their respective affairs. Before long Bagas came with complete uniforms and attributes. His big bag was coiled around his wide shoulders.

"Good morning everyone" said Bagas, making everyone's attention in the room point to him.

Panji, Riko, Kenanga, Angga and Dani were astonished when they saw Bagas coming in with a complete pdh uniform when there was no agenda today. Kenanga and Panji even wear a pdl uniform.

"Captain, your uniform looks gallant today. Do you have a special agenda?" ask Riko.

Bagas smiled as he nodded his head, "I give you permission" he said.

Kenanga's forehead shriveled confusedly, "Where's the camel?" tanyakanya.

"I will carry out my duty as a serviceman of the country by becoming a peace soldier abroad."

Everyone was immediately surprised. Panji even spewed out his coffee liquid that he was drinking. Dani stopped typing on the laptop. Kenanga stared at Bagas sharply.

"What do you mean Captain?" tanyakanya.

"I was assigned or may have volunteered to be a peace soldier in a conflict area abroad.The contingent, who had previously returned and would be replaced by another team, I volunteered to join." clear Bagas.

"Yes but for what?" kenanga CCAR. "You know that your job is to be Captain on this team, if you leave then we have to go too."

"No, Lieutenant. You guys don't have to go. I will go myself. So in order to fill the void in this team, I will appoint Lieutenant Kenanga as the head of the Rajawali team until he gets his promotion to Captain."

Kenanga shook her head, "I still don't accept your excuses, Kapt. Explain it well, there is no wind or rain, you suddenly resign as team captain and will instead become a United Nations peacekeeping soldier."

"I think the Lieutenant already knows that a country man wherever he is in charge and what he should be in charge, the Lieutenant already knows. There are personal reasons but they are beyond your capacity to know. "

Members of the Rajawali Team still do not believe and do not accept but what power, orders are an obligation that must be carried out. They cannot dispute their captain.

Riko was the first to stand, facing straight at the captain who was about to go far away.

"Good way, Captain. Good luck and the Captain is always given protection by the Almighty" he said with respect. Bagas also saluted.

After that, Panji stood, followed by Dani and Angga. Lastly, Kenanga. They lined up in line opposite Bagas.

"Command, I'm taking over. All in all, respect the move." said Kenanga. The entire Rajawali team members straightened their hands over their foreheads followed by Bagas.

After Bagas lowered his hand, "Enforce." All the team members also lowered their hands.

Kenanga took a step forward, "Report, I'm vice-captain of Team Rajawali ready to assume the duties as Captain at your command. Report's done."

Bagas nodded, "Report I received. Thank you, Lieutenant Kenanga."

Kenanga took a step back.

"My command took over. Without respect, turn right, disperse the way." said Bagas.

Members of the Rajawali team disbanded their ranks.

"I'm happy now, thank you for everything. You guys are the best team I've ever had. You are the proud warriors of our country. Please, do not disappoint me and always protect our country under the red berets you use." said Bagas.

They all nodded their heads. Bagas also advanced to one by one its members. Hugged them and patted their shoulders firmly. And lastly, he faced off with Kenanga.

Pretty clingy Bagas looked at him. Kenanga was still as charming as when she first saw her in military school. However, Bagas became aware that although the years had changed, Kenanga was still the same person he loved long ago. That woman is the reason Bagas resigned to be Captain of Team Rajawali because Bagas did not know when he would hurt himself and his feelings that would never be anchored in the heart of Kenanga. The woman was married. Bagas did not want to be a hindrance to their happiness.

"Thank you for all the memories and memories you created for me. Even though you can't reach it, I'm still happy that I once had a fellow warrior as tough as you. You are the true Srikandi, Anggi. I hope you're always happy with Alfin. Pray for me, that I may forget you and seek my own happiness." Bagas.

Bagas hugged Kenanga normally, ignoring her racing heartbeat as Kenanga's shoulder was grabbed by her body. A few seconds later, Bagas released him.

"I'm all good, everyone. See you soon." said Bagas.

"Be careful, Kapt. Don't forget to send the news if you can. Good luck to the destination." said Angga.

Bagas nodded his head after it walked out of the room.

The Rajawali team just stared at Bagas' departure firmly.

***

Kenanga went back to her apartment. He still can not forget the departure of Bagas who impressed very suddenly. But how else, it was Bagas' decision. Although Kenanga was confused as to what reason Bagas did all this.

"I'm so thirsty." muttered Kenanga.

The woman walked into the kitchen, took cold water from the refrigerator and drank it straight away. Before long, he was surprised when his waist was hugged from behind.

Grep

"I'm drinking, Alfin. I almost choked on you!" yells.

Alfin smiled sweetly, he felt completely innocent and it made Kenanga a throb.

"Why do I miss your scent, Anggi" said Alfin, making Kenanga's Roman feather stand.

I don't know since when they got the universe, Kenanga doesn't know either. Everything just flows as usual. Maybe their closeness since they lost their child.

"Oh yeah, I have something to tell you. But after you hear this, I hope you don't misunderstand or feel guilty or worried." Alfin continued.

Kenanga raised one eyebrow, "And what is it?"

Alfin pulled out Kenanga's soft hand and led her to the living room sofa.

"What Alfin, you look so serious."

"I heard that Captain Bagas resigned as the head of the Rajawali team and decided to become a United Nations peacekeeping soldier." Kenanga nodded in confirming.

"But how do you know?" tanyakanya.

"I accidentally met him in the hospital when he was taking his medical checkup file last Sunday."

"So he had it planned." muttered Kenanga.

"But do you know why he did this?" ask Alfin.

"Of course a State Servant must be ready to be placed in any task. There is no reason to refuse. Although I did feel a bit strange that his departure seemed very sudden. Usually we're always told 3 months in advance." Kenanga explained.

Alfin nodded in understanding, "But I think I know one of the crucial reasons why he's doing this all."

"And what is it?" ask Kenanga.

Alfin was silent for a while, then looked at his wife fixedly, "You." he said.

Deg

Kenanga looked, her eyes twitching. "I do not understand what you are saying Alfin." said Kenanga.

"You understand, Anggi. You know what Bagas feels for you." Alfin said.

Kenanga let out a slow breath, "I know, she seems to have feelings for me." she admitted.

"But I never felt the same way about her. I've never been in love and I don't even know what it's like. I only consider him my partner. And it makes me more comfortable." he continued.

"And when did you know that the reason Captain Bagas left was because of me?" ask Kenanga back.

"You don't know?" Kenanga.

"I overheard his conversation with Doctor Aji. And I was surprised, of course."

"Have you ever asked him directly?" ask Alfin.

Kenanga shook her head, "No, I won't. It will only make your relationship strange. I just want to be professional with him."

"So you don't have any feelings for her, do you?" ask Alfin to make sure.

Kenanga nodded her head. "Of course."

Alfin let out a sigh of relief.

"Alfin, since you've discussed this first, I think you should know something" Kenanga said.

"And what is it, my wife?" asked Alfin smiling.

I kept quiet for a while, "You know that I've never been in a relationship and I've never been in love with anyone. But for the first time, I think I've fallen for you."
