THE UNIVERSE IS FOLLOWING US
CHAPTER 54

"Where are you going?"

Naura and Jimmy look so rushed that they forget they have guests. Naura was initially reluctant to tell about Dira and Cloud. First because Naura knows, Dira has a past with Sandi. Second, because it is a family matter.

"Sick dad, Auntie. Now at grandpa's."

Jimmy plainly told me about his father's current state. Naura felt helpless.

"Sir is okay, right?"

"We're coming along." The clouds are making a sound.

"Yes, um. Just follow. I'll know Bi Uti." said Jimmy.

Naura, Jimmy, Cloud and Dira go hand in hand. The clouds saw Jimmy as uninspired. The clouds understood that the night had made the little man sleepy. The clouds offer Jimmy to carry. Of course Jimmy's happy. Naura just smiled little looking at the happiness of her son. Just as they entered Rohim's alley, Jimmy was asleep. Naura offers to replace Jimmy's cradle.

"No need. Didn't you want to see Jimmy's father. Let him rest me who will take care with non Dira. Yeah, right, Non." Dira just nodded small.

After Naura entered, only Awan and Dira remained in front of the house of Mr. Rohim. The clouds were silent looking at the small house with a simple accent. A beautiful-looking house filled with medicinal plants.

Home becomes a place to go home with all the fatigue that is felt and it makes it always comfortable. In fact, when it is far away that must be missed is the atmosphere in the house together with family.

The clouds shed tears. He misses his house. He missed the warmth of his family. Missing her mother's nagging. All about them he misses so much. His hand while stroking the back of Jimmy who had fallen asleep.

"You must be tired of holding Jimmy. Here let me. You sit down and rest." Dira takes Jimmy from the Clouds. But Jimmy's movement seemed to refuse to be moved. The clouds code Dira to keep Jimmy with him.

His eyes looked at every corner of Rohim's house. On the first day of his arrival, he was given a great surprise. Seeing Juna who was recognized by Jimmy's father. But when people come to tell Naura about her father Jimmy who dropped while on his way.

"Sorry, who's it?" tanya Siti one of the Bones Onion villagers.

"I'm Dira and this is my assistant his name is Awan. We are from Jakarta for a holiday. I happen to know this village from Bi Inah." explained Dira.

"Oh, the Sarinah. He has not been home for a long time. How's Sarinah, Healthy?"

"Thank God, Mom. Bi Inah, healthy wal Afiat. He also sends greetings to the citizens here."

"Wan, let's get Jimmy inside, Yuk. Pity will catch a cold. This isn't her grandparents' house. Could've put Jimmy to bed."

Dira enters Jimmy's father's house. Every corner of the room never escaped his sight. Dira is still guessing. Is this really Jimmy's father's family. But not her husband's family in Lembang.

Dira broke through several people at the door. While she tried to control herself as Naura cried, Naura's hand clasped the fingers tightly.

As a woman and also as Juna's legal wife, her heart ached. Seeing the man lying down, a woman's hands clasped tightly as if strengthening themselves. As Fleet band said, he should be there. Not Naura.

"Actually why Password, Mom, sir?" asked Naura with a heavy tone.

"You don't know, son Naura. Mr. Galih said, Sandi is like a headache. Keep fainting. They were going to Lembang, but because Galih was not well so they turned towards home."

The deg!

Password!

Dira turned towards a figure that was very similar to her husband. He wanted to clarify what he heard.

"The name is Sandi, huh, mbak?" ask Dira.

"Isn't Arjuna Bramantyo?" again Dira's question makes people around wonder.

"I'm sorry, Mom, dad, it's non Dira. His employer is in from Jakarta. She was on vacation due to a recent miscarriage and her husband died. Please be understood." Naura's words seemed to assume that Dira was sick.

"I asked him Sandi Kurniawan what is Arjuna Bramantyo?" Dira repeated the question to those around him.

"He's Sandi, my son." replied Ms. Halimah.

After hearing the answer from Ms. Halimah. Dira left Sandi's room. Her little heart was sure it was not Sandi but her husband.

Dira's heart skipped a beat when he heard Naura's words. Naura said she was sick. As if the word provokes the sense of pity of each person. Or maybe just mocking him. I don't know if Dira's not speculating.

Plus the attitude of Sandi's parents who began to cynical him. Dira could only give up on the events that had just happened to him.

Slowly Dira moved away from the crowd of Sandi's family. His legs stopped as Bu Halimah said to Naura.

"You better not get too close to the woman" said Ms. Halimah.

"Mom, don't do that. That's my guest. He's here to calm down." Naura said in defense of Dira.

"But you have to be careful with him!" ultimatum Bu Halimah's.

"Yes, Mom." Naura just smiled meaningfully.

Dira feels cornered. Slowly his footsteps left Sandi's room. His little heart said that Sandi was Arjuna. But he needs something as proof.

Dira is already standing in front of Mr. Rohim's house. Walking without direction. She rubbed each other's crescent moon necklace. The necklace that her partner had on her husband. The necklace that bears witness to their love struggle.

Sandi started to open her eyes. All the families there expressed gratitude to see Sandi open her eyes. So did Naura, the woman hugged Sandi as her happiness.

"I why, Mom?" ask Sandi.

"You passed out when you brought the same car, Mr. Galih. What's the matter, son?" ask Ms. Halimah.

Sandi shook her head. He himself could not remember what was going on a while ago. All he remembers is Mr. Galih complaining his body is limp.

"Sir Galih, how is he?"

"He was brought home. There was a Taufik doctor who directly handled Mr. Galih" said Mr. Rohim.

"Son Naura you stay here." Ask Ms. Halimah.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but I don't feel good about Dira and Awan. They just came home this afternoon. They're my guests, ma'am."

"Mother Rada was worried to see the woman earlier. It seems like she is still getting depressed over the loss of her husband. You do not forget the case of SUMIATI who chose to hang themselves on a tree in the middle of the rice field. Don't let him do the same." Ms. Halimah still sounds cynical hearing the name of Dira.

"Mom, can't suudzon. They are guests. Their arrival was just calming down. So please don't ruin Naura's relationship with her guests."

"What exactly did who send him here?"

"Bude Sarinah, Mom."

"Oooooo... Sarinah ex-lover father." said Halimah rising.
