Bound Mumtaz
257

Radit Energi read a book sitting on a chair as the moans of the pyra lying on the bed sounded hollow.

Radit approached the bed where Mumtaz was agitated even though his eyes were tightly closed.

He pulled out a chair and sat down beside the bed, "Muy, Mumtaz.hei Muy.." call Radit quiet.

The black-set eyes opened right at Radit. with hunting breath, his chest rising and falling as if he was tight, breathing difficult.

" Muy.." Netra Mumtaz wandered around, exhaling as she realized where she was.

" How is Ibnu?"

" Lo Yaang hurry compared to them, Muy. we concentrate on Lo first how?"

" Where are they?"

" Last I saw Zayin nagging those who continue to feel sorry to see Lo's condition."

" I fainted."

" Yes, absolutely. You want to tell me why you're so shocked?"

Mumtaz raised his right hand over his eyes, behind which tears fell instantly, the body trembled slowly, but the longer the stronger the roar continued.

Radit pensively held out a hand grasping the hand that covered that face which was immediately gripped firmly by Mumtaz.

Long Radit looked down at Mumtaz, who was crying, patiently waiting until the crying subsided, and finally the body felt calm, but the grip was still the sea as if Mumtaz needed a backrest to support his weakness.

" Let's tell a story, I'll listen." Mumtaz.

" I.it hurts, it's so stifling." - moaned Mumtaz in a choked voice.

" Surely, 10 years ago must have made Lo's life..."

" Mom raped...Toni, chief.hiks...."

"Relax, Slow down. We'll talk as soon as you're ready.I'm not going anywhere."

Mumtaz took Radit's hand off, away from his face, his hands now clinging to each other.

" I want to tell a story." he said doubtfully, his gaze was sweet but the look was empty.

" Okay, I'm glad Lo wants to share, but after that we compromise. A compromise between the past and the present, accept to be part of our hdup." said Radit calming, as if that's what it should be. Mumtaz.

Silent, long silent, Radit simply rubbed Mumtaz's arm offering protection before the hoarse voice itself opened its mouth to the events of 10 years ago.

" I and Ibnu after school stopped by his house to ask for a meal before we played home.but." slide the story of the tragedy that unexpectedly went smoothly.

In the middle room, Zayin sat cross-legged in front of four young men who in the ocean were famous as authoritative young entrepreneurs, but in front of Zayin sat perfectly ready to receive punishment.

In his right hand held a roll of paper that served as a punching device.

" After my lengthy lecture, mention your mistakes." snapped Zayin firmly.

"Daniel." Zayin Mede the current ruthless commander.

" We feel guilty when it's not necessary, because Mumuy voluntarily protected us."

" good. Alfaska."

" Mumtaz was sad not because of us, but was indeed mentally shocked because of himself, so there was no need to feel guilty."

" Good, Bara."

" Don't feel like it has become a burden, if the feeling is still there mending go don't nongol again, complicated by the drama."

" Understand me!?" as the rafters were shaken by the nose, they nodded obediently.

" Ibn." Ibn straightened his body to look at Zayin.

" Mumtaz did it all because of our love, because we're family, so throw away those useless regrets."

" I think Lo understands everything, I'm saying that because that's how we feel about you guys, but you don't hear me, are you looking down on us?" ask Zayin suspiciously.

They shook their heads, "Not so, just..."

" Stop getting there, because if that sentence is passed on we go back to the beginning, and my patience is as thin as a tissue that's split seven." Zayin cut off Alfaska's words.

" Why is it so hard for you to accept that we are the same as you?" they're speechless.

" I know, we're worth nothing to you...Because we're not your level but...."

" Zayin, stop talking nonsense about social status, if anyone dares to look down on you, I kill that person right now." Bara snapped.

" That's how we feel, we get angry every time you feel sorry, keep you sad, keep you talking if you're our burden, that's like what we're trying to protect you for free!" Zayin.

" Is it so hard for you to just give up on our affection for receiving you in the weakest state even if you are mending we should never again talk about this *bullshit*, this, we've got all the ties between us, we're strangers."

They were wide in shock, Alfaska came forward and immediately floated a pukvlan right on Zayin's handsome face he fell over in shock, but was soon able to handle the situation.

Zayin looked at Alfaska's stomach that was about to strike him again, Alfaska lurched to the floor, but his gaze sharpened to look at Zayin like a target he was ready to spot.

" Don't challenge me as if you can beat me." Zayin wiped the wound on the corner of his lips.

" So stop saying that" pressed Daniel.

" Okay, if Lo..Lo...Lo..Lo.. also stop the drama of regrets." pointed Zayin at one by one of them.

" Okay, *fine*. We don't feel guilty anymore, but Lo stopped keeping our distance from us" Daniel said.

Puk..your.puk....

One by one their heads in the newspaper by Zayin

" I and the family is the position you sell us. don't use nawar. and Lo Nu, throw Lo useless. Who do you think Aa Mumtaz Babvin could have covered her riots in cyberspace if not Lo? Afa, he just takes care of one helpless let alone take care of the computer. Daniel, the love he just not becus he keep let alone keep the virus. Bara, ngurus the mangrove aja especially about hacking." the index finger again pointed straight one by one on them.

" So, about the memory loss Lo, about the past is not bad for the mental Aa Mumuy. Lo inget is also not necessarily he wants to share the story, the pretentious attitude mendem own problems that make the character he causes, but ultimately we know also, if he decides to share the story."

Zayin's long words impregnated them all, "What's up?" suddenly Gaddafi entered the house with the King and Juan.

Their steps came to a halt when they saw a tense atmosphere surrounding them.

" Where are you important?" ask Zayin.

" From UAM, New scholarship tests there, keep meeting the same King bang Juan. I invite them to play here."

Zayin nodded," escaped?"

" No announcement yet, the day after. Where's Aa Mumuy?"

" Ending to sleep. Daf, buy a lot of food and call her another one, tell her to come, Ja." Zayin opened the wallet, took out his debit card on Gaddafi.

" You guys fighting again?" Gaddafi sanctions they're fine.

" As usual. You go hunting, Aa Mumuy wake up there's no food to kill him." Zayin throws the code with his eyes there is a King so that he takes Gaddafi out.

" Where is it, Aa Mumuy is not that person, what is it?" kukuh gaddafi smelled the irregularity between them.

After Gaddafi's death, their position is still the same." we have Dafi who of course do not let him know what polemic happened. Let's finish this."

" Yes, we have it." said Ibnu.

" Don't just talk about doang, but really hopefully." sewot Zayin.

" Yes, Yin. Yes." timpal Alfaska.

" I think that Navarro was caught in the business finished, but it turned out to be more runyam" said Bara.

"You're screwing it up. *mybe* if we concentrate on Aa without the frills the melancholy feeling is all done." They agreed with Zayin's words.

" If you can't accept anything that happens to you or Aa mumuy, at least compromise it. things that are not your destiny will not happen even if you pursue as hard as you can. but even if you prevent as hard as possible it will still happen if it's your destiny." Zayin said casually.

" Yin, since when can Lo be this wise?" alfaska asked astonished, but usually his sister-in-law who sourced this short.

Zayin chuckled in irony, "Your gaze is focused only on Aa Mumuy, you feel tormented seeing the pain of Anla Mumtaz because of the attachment of friendship, let alone us, in our bodies flowing the same blood. bus you guys imagine how we got hurt watching our brother suffer?"

" It's not just Aa Mumuy who's sick, but I, sister ala, and Tia. We're all hurt.losing dad to the frivolity of a breakup, losing mom to take care of other people's lives, and losing my mommy to keep someone else alive, not to mention the drama of Tia and Kak Ala on the incitement of others. It's not all about us, we're just a figurehead, but we're the ones who got hurt. You think we're not angry? not fed up? we are angry, tired, fed up and want to leave, but Aa Mumuy chose to be reluctant to leave you, as a family, we only support because we love Aa Mumuy. until we accept it as destiny!"

Silent, Zayin's outpouring of heart cut their souls, they felt selfish.they saw Zayin who was downcast in hiding his tears.

" When Aa Mumuy says she misses Mama, not only her, but me too. about you guys sometimes it feels hard, but because we love you, we're willing to endure it." Zayin raised his face, his nether was staring at them one by one.

" Understand we're all hurt, not just Aa Mumtaz, but us too, bang..W-W-W-I!!" press Zayin pointing at his chest.

The eyes of the young businessmen were glazed, they felt that the most brengs'ek ignored his sister who also needed attention.

" Yin,.*sorry*." said Daniel, Zayin nodded no longer able to say, his chest felt tight.

Alfaska, Ibnu, and Bara simultaneously embraced him whose body was shaking.

The companions whom they had not yet realized were stopping their steps when they heard Zayin's inner voice, they chose to wait on the porch while listening to Zayin's bath wounds.

" I'm sorry, forgive your selfish brothers and sisters, 'Yin. sorry." - Bara represented the four of them.

lam afterward they calmed back down, they emnguria hugs, yet no one had intended to talk them busy with their respective thoughts.

" We are starting today to change our view of our own story." Daniel stopped the silence.

" As zayin says, we start to compromise anyway we can't change the past, but the future belongs to us." Alfaska added.

" Huh, rather than losing you, I'm more conciliatory." Bara said.

" I agree." said Ibnu.

I was the idea." followed by Alfaska.

"Gue 3 in." added Daniel.

"Okay, fix. we will no longer be buried in the past and guilty.everything is destiny." Bara said.

" Deal, this is yes.no lie between us, if anyone tries to trick. I will boyong my whole family to a place you will never find, including the wife Lo bang." he said to everyone, especially Alfaska.

Their faces paled, these Romli descendants spoke, they would not change what they had decided.

Chequek...

" Why are you sitting on the floor like that? the ripple." ledek Mumtaz walked up to them calmly.

" Mumuy, I miss Looo..." Alfaska ran over to him who was pushed along because of Alfaska's brutal embrace.

" Well, Napa dah Lo? my fainting feelings why Lo's having a concussion."

" Vicious very Lo, Muy." Alfaska.

" Bang, alay Lo, eneg I. vomit this." said Zayin disgusted.

" On vomiting, I think I threw up" Mumtaz's eyes looked for traces of vomit that had disappeared.

" *Sorry* yes Nu ngotorin Lo home."

" No problem.when else do I help Atma Madina and Birawa clean house, Muy."

Tok...

"Assalamualaikummm."

The king and the others entered while carrying many bags of crackles filled with food.

after ensuring the atmosphere in the house relaxed.

"No, you guys eat big mulu" Mumtaz said seeing one by one the food plastered on the floor.

" it's like you don't have to breath if Lo males pumps her lungs." Jeno said.

" You eat big every day."

" A Ayin who is practicing" said Gaddafi.

"Tumben, don't bankrupt you, deck."

"Living kasbon love bang Bara" said Zayin while tasting a warm fritters.

" Why is that?' ask Alfaska not to take it."

"Stingy." said the King.

" Yes stingy."

" The big boss is medit."

" The grave is shallow."

And there were many more sneers for Alfaska from the others...
