We're Still Further

We're Still Further
What happened to Reta?


Mounds of land with colorful flower decorations decorate above it. It looks like a tombstone bearing the name of a person, who is none other than Alex.


Well, Alex was pronounced dead in a big hospital in Bandung. People left the funeral this afternoon, just Nathan, Frezan and Farel.


While both Rara's children are taken care of by Art. Rara leaves the funeral at Frezan's behest, fearing that Hasya would wake up to find Rara.


Farel was crying from earlier holding a tombstone belonging to Alex on which there are still fertile flowers, above the cemetery Alex.


"Bah.." - Lirih Farel held Alex's tombstone.


"Why did Farel fall into Mamih" Farel's cry broke out in front of Alex's tomb.


Nathan and Frezan sat down near Farel. With Farel in the middle of Nathan to his left and Frezan to his right.


"We're still here, Rel," Nathan said, holding his sister's shoulder.


Farel did not reply to Farel's words, he only cried while holding Alex's tombstone, which had left them.


Frezan stood up and stood up straight," Which reta?" Ask Frezan who is the same. Because they're just the three of them getting this impeached.


Farel wiped away the trace of his tears, the 9-year-old stood up and looked towards Frezan. Tell him Farel knows his brothers well enough. Frezan and Nathan have different characteristics.


"Mamih again went out of the country," Farel replied making Frezan look at his sister's bead eyes. Waiting for Farel to continue his words." Aunty said, Mamih will come home tomorrow. Because I just found out that Papah died."


Frezan's jaw hardened, even in this state Reta did not pay attention to Alex. Even the woman still went abroad with Alex sick. He didn't even attend Alex's funeral one last time because he was out of the country.


Reta should have thought, if Alex was sick so he did not have to go abroad either take care of what business. Only Reta and God know what Reta's doing overseas.


There is sadness in Frezan and Nathan being abandoned by his parents. However, Frezan and Nathan were able to keep his expression still mediocre but not with his heart.


***


It's been three days since Alex's departure. In these three days Reta did not go home when Farel had said that Reta would come, but in fact not at all.


Nathan took a long breath. Because Farel doesn't want to eat if Reta hasn't informed him. They called Reta and Reta just ignored Nathan's phone.


"Try on the Telfon Reta" Nathan told Frezan. Because they were in the guest room. While Rara was in Farel's room to persuade the boy to eat.


"Who knows Reta picked up the phone from lo, Za," he continued, sitting on the couch with Frezan looking out the window.


Frezan turned his back and looked at Nathan who was looking at him with hope."I don't want to deal with Reta anymore" Frezan replied, causing Nathan to take a deep breath.


"By Farel, Za," Nathan said again, leaving Frezan silent for a moment.


"Lo's seen it, right. If Farel is lazy to eat if Reta doesn't contact him" he continued.


Frezan was silent, there was no answer from the figure of the 27-year-old man.


Nathan got off the couch, "I hope you can do it for Farel's sake" Nathan said, keeping his phone on the table. "Reta's number is on my phone" he continued and left the living room with his cellphone he kept on the table.


Frezan glanced at Nathan's handpone on the table, his legs moving to immediately hit the table where Nathan's handpone was.


Frezan reached into his pants pocket, he took out his handphone and copied the Reta number on Nathan's handpone.


Frezan does not keep the Reta handpone number, he directly calls the Reta number.


Drt....Drt....Drt....


Frezan closed his eyes, Reta's handpone vibrated making the woman glance at her phone which read. He was silent when he saw on the screen handpone written Frezan's name. The man who once made her fall in love.


Tell me, if Reta's the one that saved Frezan's handpone number. Frezan is not at all.


Reta pressed the green button, it was a sign that she lifted the phone from the figure of Frezan.


"Hello, Za."


The first words issued by Reta across the phone make Frezan want to swear to hear the voice of Reta.


Hate it? Of course, other than because of their past and plus Reta was not there when Alex died. He goes abroad to make Nathan and Frezan want to teach Reta a lesson.


"Za," call Reta across the phone. Reta's voice makes Frezan want to end his phone immediately but he has not said a word.


"Where's lo? Have you forgotten the memory that your husband has left and you are not there."


The first words that came out of Frezan's mouth made Reta let out her faint smile, "I'm sorry Za. I'm going to send Farel to you. I married someone else long before you got sick."

I don't know why Valen was so lazy to move this morning. He was still faithfully in his blanket lazing around this morning.


Unreservedly, the girl got up from her bed to shower immediately because she had obligations in the hospital.


Valen looked at himself in front of the bathroom mirror, his face a little pale if women were not okay.


Valen took a shower, he didn't have much time because this morning he'll be working with Nathan again to check on Adelia.


Nathan is already in Jakarta, which means Valen will return to Adelia's room to check on Adelia.


Over the past week, Nathan and Valen have teamed up to check on Adelia.


Valen was wearing his coat of pride, he came down the stairs and saw Rifal eating at the table alone.


Valen looked at the dinner shirt, somehow he wasn't in the mood this morning for breakfast before the hospital. The woman immediately left the dining table without even glancing at Rifal who was looking at her full of question marks.


The reason, Valen's face was very pale made Rifal wonder. Is Valen sick? Yesterday he was okay.


"Valent!" call Rifal until Valen's footsteps stop. He looked at Rifal lazily. I don't know why his mood this morning was being played with, like it wasn't him controlling himself.


Rifal approached Valen, clearly visible on Valen's face if he was far from healthy. Seen from his pale face and looks limp.


"Face up lo shoots, if you are sick it is better not to work. I don't want to be bothered 'cause you're sick."
