Chapter 104 - Jogjakarta "A City of Memories"

When Arjuna was in Bogor, the in-law of Komjen Pol Prasetyo Pambudi was in Bandung. Suddenly he misses his late wife.

As a result he went to Bandung with his personal aide, Riko, who was always loyal to him wherever he was. Dew is buried in the city known as Paris van Java or the Flower City.

A gravestone is inscribed with the name of Dew Mentari Hadnan. The mound of dry land that became the resting place of his late wife to sleep for ever, is now filled with sprinkles of flowers.

His outstretched hand sowed flowers filling the Vortex of the Dew. Not to forget he also doused it with water so that the burial ground Dewun looks wet like a new cemetery. And Khusyu' offered a prayer for his late wife.

"Dear, sorry I haven't been here in a long time. You must be angry because I'm too busy. Sorry." A heavy breath came out from his lips.

"Are you happy now there with our grandson, Son of Arjuna? You must be happy because here Bening is happy with Arjuna." Papa Bening's hand caresses the tombstone of Dew lovingly.

"Darling, I miss you. Did you miss me there too? I hope we can get back together there. Pray that Bening will get pregnant soon. Let our house be crowded again with baby cries. Must be exciting," great-grandson Papa Bening.

Riko was always faithfully located and saw from a distance that his commander did in the tomb of the late Dewun. Even as the old back trembled from crying near the Dew navel, Riko knew.

As Papa Bening's personal aide for a long time, Riko knew how much the Commander loved his late wife. He hopes that the commander's family will always be happy and peaceful.

"I'll go home first, Dewun. I'm going to Jogjakarta to meet our daughter. Suddenly I miss him. See you soon, baby. Miss you so much." great-granddaughter Papa Bening said goodbye.

After Bandung, Papa Bening and Riko immediately left for Jogjakarta. Komjen Pol Prasetyo Pambudi is on holiday for three days after a grueling safari of the Indonesian tour over the past few weeks.

He has not seen his daughter and daughter in a long time. He knew that Arjuna was in Bogor to handle the case. He decided to go to Jogjakarta. In addition to missing Bening, he also wants to meet someone.

After an hour and more five minutes on the air from Bandung to Jogjakarta, Papa Bening and Riko finally set foot in the city of Gudeg. A city full of memories for a Komjen Pol Prasetyo Pambudi. He wanted to make happy memories there.

The clock is three o'clock in the afternoon, right on Sunday. Before meeting Bening, he decided to contact someone.

"Hello, Hen. It's me Pras. Where are you now?" ask Papa Bening enthusiastically over the phone.

"Huh, you tumben call me at this hour. What was? Kangen?" asked Doctor Heni deliberately joking and surprised because Papa Bening called him. The two have not been together since Bening and Arjuna got married a few months ago.

"I'm in Jogja now. Take you out for a minute. Is anyone angry?" ask Papa Bening to the point.

"Is this really you Pras or your twin? This morning the feeling of the sun still rising in the east instead of rising from the west" said Doctor Heni was surprised and deliberately mocked Papa Bening.

"I want to see Bening because I haven't seen him in a long time. Yesterday was still busy traveling safari. A few days off so I take advantage of it briefly to Jogja. Just before meeting Bening, want to take you out first. Can you?" ask Papa Bening to clarify.

"Oh so. Kirain," Doctor Heni's great-grandson.

"What chain?" ask Papa Bening.

"Nothing. Kirain you meet me want to love the results of a traveling safari so Mr. Wakapolri," ledek Doctor Heni deliberately diverted the conversation.

"I'm sorry, I don't bring souvenirs. Later on the road you want to buy what, I buy."

"Basar of scarecrows. From the past until now not connected!" inner Doctor Heni grumbled.

"Where, Hen? Where are you now? I'll pick you up" said Papa Bening.

"I'm at home. It just so happens to be on holiday too. Just pick it up at home" replied Dr. Heni.

"Okay, I'm going there. At least half an hour I've arrived. You get ready," said Papa Bening.

"Every 86, Ndan!" replied Doctor Heni enthusiastically.

"Haha.." Papa Bening's laugh.

"See you later, Hen. I hung up on him."

"Okay, Ndan."

Dr. Heni went in and sat next to Papa Bening who accidentally did not get out of the car because Dr. Heni was ready on the terrace of his house. And before long the car drove away from Doctor Heni's residence to go somewhere.

Inside the car there was a moment of silence. But Dr. Heni also decided to make a sound first so as not to be hurt by curiosity. Suddenly the man she once loved was acting quite strange, she thought.

"Ehem... Where are we going, Pras?" ask Dr. Heni to the point.

"Go eat while looking at the sunset. I happen to have not eaten Laper before. Follow me for a little while" replied Papa Bening.

"Where?" ask Dr. Heni back.

"There was. Deket. It will soon arrive" replied Papa Bening.

Finally Doctor Heni did not ask back and saw the car he was riding towards the road to the Ratu Boko Temple area.

Abhayagiri Restaurant's. The signboard is listed and he read when their car entered the restaurant area which is known to be quite luxurious with a very beautiful and interesting view to enjoy.

About forty minutes from his house to this restaurant. Its location not far from Ratu Boko Temple makes the scenery around Abhayagiri Restaurant so exotic. Especially in the afternoon as it is now until night.

Many visitors who come to this restaurant in the afternoon to hunt sunset and night to hunt for the beautiful scenery of Prambanan Temple.

When he entered, there was already a special servant who directed them towards the table which turned out to be Papa Bening's previous reservation. He was very surprised to see the man whose name is still secretly residing in his heart this makes a surprise that is arguably quite romantic for him.

But he tried to act ordinary. Didn't want to give any reaction to what Papa Bening did to her today. Both of them finally sat in the reserved place.

Then the waiter put the menu book on both. Papa Bening ordered Beef Wellington and also Premium Tea. Meanwhile, Dr. Heni ordered Pan Roasted Salmon and a fast rice ice drink.

Soon their orders came. Then both eat while enjoying the sunset and the natural scenery is very cool in silence. Only the clangs of the knives and forks they used.

"Hen," called Papa Bening while looking at Doctor Heni.

"Yes," replied Doctor Heni briefly as he returned Papa Bening's gaze in seriousness.

"Sorry" said Papa Bening.

"For?" doctor Heni asked in wonder as he squinted his gaze looking at something on Papa Bening's face that was quite strange to him.

"All my past mistakes hurt you" Papa Bening replied straightforwardly.

"Didn't you do that last time. And I've forgiven you and forgotten everything that happened in the past between us. Why else?" asked Doctor Heni was increasingly astonished by Papa Bening's attitude.

"Nothing. Thank you for still being friends with me after everything that happened" Papa Bening replied.

"You're weird to know not Pras, today. Really, I swear. Ever since you called me and suddenly went to Jogja, I kept eating here. You feel different, don't you? Did you go on a traveling safari wrong on medication?"

"Something weird is you. After this, I went to the mall for a while. I'm gonna buy you something. After that I take you home," said Komjen Pol Prasetyo Pambudi while smiling thinly.

"Say you miss seeing Bening. How did you not meet Bening?" ask Dr. Heni.

"Tomorrow the morning I will go to my besan house. After driving you home, I went straight to the hotel. Take a break first" replied Papa Bening.

The two fell silent again and Doctor Heni glanced at Papa Bening who was smiling looking at the natural scenery in front of where they were sitting.

"Oh, I hope it's just my feeling. It seems that I drink less so think too much about this scarecrow," said Doctor Heni.
