The Suffering of Si Kembang Village

The Suffering of Si Kembang Village
Behind the short


Gavin and Nilam are now on their way back to town A. Their main goal is the company. But in the middle of the trip Gavin stopped the speed of his car on the shoulder of the road.


"Darling, what's wrong?!" Gavin patted Nilam's cheek which kept on whining in the middle of his mouth. "Nilam, hey, what's wrong with you?" Start worrying.


For a moment!


Nilam was surprised to open his eyes. Cold sweat poured all over his skin. He then glanced at Gavin who was looking at him anxiously. "Gavin ...."


Gavin cupped the two cheeks of the girl. "What's wrong with you, honey? You're dreaming, hmm?"


Nilam stared at the bead of Gavin's eyes taking turns. "Yes, Gav." With a weak voice.


"Oh, just a dream. Calm down." Gavin tried to calm down. "Umm.. Then, who is that grandmother you called?" an inquisitive look was straight from Gavin's eyes.


Nilam bowed his face. "Grandmother's ...."


 ----


"Finally you found your love, Nilam." In the dim voice of Grandma Samiah sounded soft. He continued to caress the face of Nilam sitting before him, in a simple house, which was out of nowhere.


"Yes, Grandma. Was he the man Grandma meant to be in the woods back then?"


"true." Grandma smile. "Nilam ... In the future there are still many things you have to do and you will go through before you reach the peak of your happiness, son."


"I mean Grandma?"


"You'll know for yourself later." Grandma with all her puzzles. "Nilam, Grandma's granddaughter has your village, son. He's grown up. Please help her get her rights as a child."


Nilam frowned not understanding. "Grandmother's Grandchild? Who?"


"He's very close to you. He loves you like a brother."


"Hana?"


Grandma shakes. "No. He's a boy."


"Male...?" Nilam started asking his brain to work. No one is closest to him, except .... "Didy!"


"Grandmother smiled. "Yes, Son. Didi."


"Didy Grandma's granddaughter?" Nilam in his surprise.


"true." Grandma turned her body towards the window. Standing staring at a path beside the courtyard of the house.


"Isn't Didy Mbok Parmi's grandson?"


Grandma shakes. "The official is only a good person who takes care of and raises him willingly."


"Is that true, Grandma?"


"Yes, Nilam. One more important thing you should know about Didy."


Spoken the old grandmother's fingers, standing in front of the open window. "What is that, Grandma?" Nilam.


Grandma was silent for a moment. Then turned his eyes to face Nilam. "Didy was the only key witness behind the murders of your adoptive parents, Nilam."


The deleg!!!


One more surprise managed to spur the speed of Nilam's heart rhythm. Instantly, he focused his rounded gaze onto Grandma Samiah's two eyeballs. "Ma-I mean Grandma?"


"Yes, Son. Didy witnessed the murder. And that's why he became gago."


"Ne-Granny, ti-not wrong, right?" nilam's voice was almost gone.


"Nothing's wrong. It's all real. Didy's two eyes, it was the one who witnessed the savagery unfolding."


"Yes, Tahaan ... Didi." Closing his mouth with both of his palms. "Who's the killer then, Grandma?"


"Didy knows everything. You can ask her later."


"But, Grandma, next I have to bag-"


Nilam turned around looking for the figure of Grandma Samiah who suddenly disappeared from his view. "Mr... Grannies... Where's granny?!"


Tracing every detail of the room inside the foreign house. "sam ... Grandma ...!"

"That's what Grandma said in my dream, Gavin." A speck of tears plunged freely without hesitation on both sides of Nilam's cheeks.


Gavin grabbed Nilam's body into his embrace. "Calm down. I'm here with you. We're gonna solve together the riddle behind the murders of your parents."


Nilam broke away from the circle of Gavin's arm. Looking at that handsome face was clear. "Gav, can we go back to the village? I want to see Didy soon."


"Can't, honey. It's been too far. Only a quarter of the way we'll get to the company." Holds both shoulders of the girl. "Calm down, I will definitely help you solve all your problems. But it can't be at once. We'd better focus on freeing Hana's mother from Dahlan's house. After it works, we will confirm the truth of your dreams. How's it?"


Nilam. True, he could not have forced Gavin to solve all his problems simultaneously. "alright. I'm sorry," he said at last.


The man smiled. "It's okay, I get it. We continue the journey again. Can you?"


Nilam. "Yes." Yeah."


"We're going."


 ----


The two are now inside a magic box, moving up towards the floor where Gavin's room is located.


"Darling, can't you just take that cover off your head?" ask Gavin carefully.


Patchouli touched the knot of cloth under his chin, then shook his head. "I can't, Gav."


"Why? There's me protecting you."


"Not until all my problems are over."


"It was just a piece of cloth. It won't affect anything." Gavin was determined by his wishes.


"We have arrived" said Nilam without caring about the man beside him.


"Darling, you're prettier with your hair down." In unsatisfied fashion Gavin continues to force while walking towards his room.


Nilam stopped his steps. Looking at the man cynically. "If you don't like me like this, I'll just go back to the village" he threatened.


Gavin chuckles. "Please, just go home. I won't take you." Fold both hands in front of the chest.


"alright. I'll have Kenzie take me."


Damn it!!


Gavin quickly pulled Nilam's arm which was about to turn around. "Don't. Please don't" he asked fearfully. Kenzie's name was like a spell containing a threat to him. "alright. I relented. You can wear that cloth. But only in public places. Not if we're both. How's it?"


Patchouli with a grin on his face. "alright. I agree."


The man breathed a sigh of relief. Returning pulled that slender body into his embrace. "No more my manganacam by the name of Kenzie. I don't like. And one more thing, don't try to meet him without me."


Gluing a hug, drowning his face in the chest of the man's field. Sweet smile on her beautiful face. "Yes, I get it, Gav."


God, is this what it feels like to be loved wholeheartedly?


"One more."


Gavin's words made him hold his head up, staring at the face a few inches taller than him, curious. "What?"


"Call me baby."


"Huh?"


"Why?"


"I'm ashamed, Gav."


"Why ashamed. I'm your lover."


"Tap-"


"Don't refuse! Try it now."


Nilam was embarrassed. "I-yes, Sa-dear."


There was a ticklish sound from Gavin's mouth. Sharpening the head of the girl's head was anxious. "So much more fun."


Without both of them noticing, a pair of eyes watched with a funny look. Asty. From behind his desk, his mouth shut held back laughter. Since when did the boss become that darn?


And Nilam, the girl he knew as Nuri, oh that girl .. really brings positive energy to Gavin.


May you smile like that forever, boss!


"What are you laughing at, Asty?" Gavin was already standing in front of his secretary's desk. Beside him, Nilam stood withstanding shame.


"Eh, Mr. Gavin, Nuri." Smiling clumsily. Asty stood up to greet his superior. "Good day, sir. Afternoon, Nuri."


"Hmm" said Gavin briefly. And Nilam just nodded with a forced smile.


"What were you laughing about?"


"E- uh, i-it ..." scratched his non-itchy temple. "Ti-none, sir."


"Don't lie. Your laughter is clearly the answer."


Do you know why to ask? Rutukan in Asty's heart.


"Already, let's just say you've just seen a romantic movie scene."


"Eh, no, sir. I'm sorry," he said.


You Boss gesrek!


"It's okay. Continue your work."


"Ba-good, sir."
