Waiting for the Love of the Country
Chapter 44. Disappeared

Gisya is asleep, Syauqi will take care of him tonight. In her dream, Gisya saw her husband waving. Her husband looked handsome and very bright. As Gisya approached, the shadow of her husband disappeared. Then suddenly the clouds became dark, cloudy and a lot of lightning struck. Gisya woke up from his sleep and shouted, making Syauqi wake up.

"Sir!!!" yell Gisya.

"Astaghfirulloh, Istighfar Tea! Tetu why?!" ask the worried Syauqi.

"Bang Fahri, is he okay Uqi?" isak Gisya's.

"InshaAllah Abang well Teh, do not cry. Kasian ponakan Uqi on the belly. Drink first let Teteh calm down." said Syauqi while giving drinking water.

The atmosphere in Congo is currently chaotic. All TNI members were deployed, now they are looking for traces of 5 TNI people who were declared missing. Including the names Fahri and Dzikri, they suffered gunshot wounds to the shoulder and leg. Fahri was unconscious when his shoulder was shot. While Dzikri continues to drag Fahri's body in order to take shelter. The three members who were still with them helped him. But unfortunately, they were caught by the Armed Group.

The five of them were held captive in a stuffy, dusty basement. Dzikri continued to feel pain with a gunshot wound to his leg, he managed to pull out a bullet from inside his leg. Then Dzikri approached Fahri who was not yet conscious, even though Dzikri had taken a bullet from his shoulder.

"Swake stupid! Remember your wife is waiting for you at home!" said Dzikri tried to resuscitate Fahri. He continued to check the pulse in Fahri's hands that began to weaken. Dzikri started to panic, he did not want to lose his relatives back. Dzikri who began to get carried away continued to wake Fahri, even he continued to hit Fahri's chest.

"Already Bang! Calm yourself, you have to be strong. We need to get out of here" Letda Imron told Dzikri.

"He must live! Wake stupid! If you don't wake up, Ri. I'll marry your wife, let's be Andina's honey!" shout Dzikri.

Uuhuuk!! Uhuuuukkkk!!

Fahri felt pain in his chest, he opened his eyes. And saw the four who were crying sob.

"Sick Bang, thirsty." said Fahri. They began to breathe.

"Yet you woke up stupid!" dzikri hugged Fahri.

"Soldiers are whiny, Bang!" ledek Fahri's.

"Bas based on a fat boy! You almost died, you know!!" upset Dzikri.

"Yes Bang, thankfully you woke up. If you can't, then Abang's wife will be Bang Dzikri's second wife" said Imron.

"Want me to bang you, Bang?!" pissed Fahri.

"God! Guys want to go bust! We have to find a way to get out of here" Dzikri said.

Fahri began to remember the events that happened to him, he was grateful to be alive. Because he had to keep his promise to his wife. They had been there for almost ten days, without being fed or drunk. But this morning was different, they were fed and drank. Having been very hungry and weak, they ate with gourmand. Until a voice stopped them.

"It looks like you're very hungry" Abrafo said.

"Abrafo?!" fahri and Dzikri.

Abrafo was one of the best snipers in his Military Corps. However, he was dishonorably fired after being caught selling weapons illegally. They got to know each other during the TNI Joint Exercises with Special Forces at Baturaja Combat Training Center, South Sumatra. Now Abrafo is conducting illegal transactions in the Congo. He who felt a grudge against all that was associated with the Military, continued to attack every Military Barracks that kept the peace of the Congo.

"Do you still know me, how are old friends?" ask Abrafo.

"Why are you holding us hostage?" asked Dzikri in anger.

"Quiet buddy! I just want to know how powerful the United Nations Military is right now. See, until now no one has even saved you" Abrafo said with a snide laugh.

"Then what good is it that you're holding us hostage here!" dzikri.

"Relax Dzikri, I just want to reminisce with you. Oh, ja. Where's Andi? Aren't you two inseparable?" Abrafo.

"Death separates us" said Fahri, who made Abrafo speechless.

"Why did he die?" asked Abrafo with a flat face.

"Why do you want to know? Don't you care about our world anymore" said Fahri trying to play with Abrafo's emotions. And sure enough, he started to get emotional.

"Quick say! What happened to my sister?!" furious Abrafo.

"He died with honor! He died with the name of our country!" dzikri said loudly. Abrafo bowed lethargic.

"Andi was very disappointed when he heard you broke your oath to your country. Even he doesn't want to hear your name." said Fahri.

"Enough!! Be quiet!! You guys I'll never let go!" abrafo said and left them. Fahri knew if Abrafo was injured, Andi really meant in Abrafo's life. Andi saved him several times.

News of the disappearance of 5 TNI members has spread in Indonesia. Gisya who had just returned to his Office House was surprised by the atmosphere of the complex so dark. Gisya was picked up by Indra and Indri, because Syauqi was on duty and the Mother was having a lot of Cake Orders in the Shop. At her residence, Andina wept bitterly, accompanied by several members of Persit. Gisya approached Andina's residence, seeing that she was crying, hugging Rian.

"Bak Andina why?" tanya Gisya then approached Andina.

"Ate ica mama angis, ian acute." said the little boy.

"This is Rian with Aunt Caca, already a handsome child do not cry" said Gisya while stroking the top of Rian's head.

"Curtain! Soon you will cry!" ketus Bella who just came.

Gisya ignored Bella's words, she just hugged Rian and Andina.

"Please don't make a fuss here Ms. Kemal" said Ms. Danki.

"Please, ma'am, I'm just wondering. Her husband was declared missing, but she was relaxed" Bella said casually.

Like being struck by lightning, Gisya's heart ached. But he had to be able to control his emotions, he didn't want his content to be troubled. Gisya continued to be silent, she just prayed in her heart and tightened her arms at Andina and Rian.

"Tuh you all can see right?! What kind of wife is she! Andina just cried like that, but she's relaxed!" said Bella.

A plaaakkkkk!! Akaaakkkkkkk!!

Hard slap landed on Bella's cheek. Gisya was unable to stay still as Bella continued to harass him. Especially when he talks no-no.

"The slap is for you who almost took the life of the fetus in my womb! And another one for your mouth that doesn't go to school! What before marriage did you not learn the adab-adab to be a Wife of the Servant of the State?! Please allow Ms. Danki, I can be quiet when she treats me badly. I can still tolerate it, but this time I can't! This dear Miss Kemal almost took the life of the Baby I bear! And one more Miss Kemal! My husband is still missing, not declared dead! I'm trying to hold back my tears and my pain, because I'm sure he's fine! I'll report Mrs Kemal's actions against me!" gisya said that made Bella speechless.

Fatimah as the wife of the Company Commander regretted Bella's attitude that had been very outrageous, she had also reported Bella to Chairman Mother Persit. Furthermore, Bella will be sanctioned, because her husband is in Lebanon, the sanctions will be imposed when her husband has learned of the wife's problems.

Gisya entered his house lethargic, Indri still faithfully accompanied Gisya. When he opened the phone, he saw a lot of messages from the Persit Group. She read it with teary eyes. At present, 5 TNI serving in Congo are missing after the shooting. Gisya's heart grimaced again, he stroked his flat stomach.

"Dad will be fine. Dad will definitely be home for us. Yes strong, dear. You are the power of the Mother at this time." said Gisya.

"Bang, remember your promise. Keep fighting for life, me and your son are waiting for you. We will always be faithful to wait for you."

The baby she contained, became a power in itself for Gisya. She was certain that her husband would soon be found safe.
