LOVE ON THE HORIZON

LOVE ON THE HORIZON
REAPPEAR


I arrived at the hospital almost at 22:00 p.m., I ran to the operating room, I saw Ita lying weakly with a pale face and slightly blue lips.


“Ah thank goodness the father has come, if any longer and the father's wife does not get blood transfusion, the mother can


lost his life “ said one of the nurses inside the operating room.


My breath was still gasping for breath when I heard the nurse speak. I'm glad that in the end everything is okay.


Two months after the birth of my second daughter, my sister Satria got married, and this is the first


the time I changed papa as guardian, at Satria's wedding. There is a sense of longing and loss, if only papa was still there.certainly he was happy to see the marriage Satria.


The house occupied by Alm papa and mama and me and my sister, is


mom's big family home, now only mom and Asty live there, when


I went to work after work, my mom asked me to talk.


“Adrian….Aunt Ratna is getting married, and the mama's family agrees to sell the house she's staying for


additional wedding costs, we have lived here long enough, now only mama and Asty, too big too..It is better mama and Asty move to a small contract only huh?” say mama.


Aunt Ratna is my mother's youngest sister, and long enough she hasn't been married to the age of four, but thank God gave her a soul mate now.


“Ga need to contract ma, Adrian house is enough for only mama and Asty...so mom and Asty stay with Adrian only huh? While being able to accompany Ita and the children, because Adrian often came home late and sometimes had to leave town for a few days.” reply me.


“Ita ga object..?” continue mama


“Ga will ma...Adrian know how Ita....all depends Adrian..rather than to pay rent better mama and Asty tube...” said me again.


“Alright if it's your decision Mama added.


A week later I arranged for my mother and sister Asty to stay with me, Ita and my two children.


Now my house feels more alive and crowded, there are babbles my two daughters, grandmother, aunt Asty and sometimes papa mama Ita who come to visit.


“Adrian... next Monday you have to leave for Batam, there are buyers we want to see the factory there.they are there for approximately three days.” said my supervisor gave instructions.


“Oke sir...tomorrow I prepare everything” I replied.


I flew by plane Monday morning, because of the info from my office that the clients from Singapore had arrived from


overnight. Arriving at Batam Hang Nadim airport, there was already a representative from the factory who picked me up. For a moment I remembered Debby, if I had picked her up at the airport, it was my turn to be picked up.


“We are going to the Hotel where you will stay or directly to the place of the guests from singapore?” answer men


the middle-aged man who picked me up.


“Live to the meeting place sir..I don't want them to wait too long”.


“Good sir...” replied the man who engineered himself named Pak Sutomo.


My meeting with the guests from Singapore lasted approximately 2 hours, and all of them were men.


“Now business matter already clear, now time for us to relax, Mr.Adrian.we want go to karaoke, do you come.


in with us?” said one of the fat and narrow-eyed men. I smiled and shook my head “Forgive me, I can’t joint with you..cause from airport , I come here directly and not yet check in to my hotel, I need to rest for a while,


maybe next time..after we go around see several factory ..tomorrow or the next day.” I refused their invitation, because I wanted to rest in the hotel, because from the airport I went straight to the meeting place with them.


The hotel ordered by the factory partner of my company is very good and quite luxurious, it is not far from the sea. From the balcony of my hotel room, I can see far from Singapore , especially later at night plus a sprinkling of lights.


By sunset I decided to get out of the hotel, and enjoy the atmosphere of the sea and the beach that is not


far from my hotel. When will I be able to enjoy this atmosphere? Thought


I was busy sitting on the sandy beach while enjoying the orange and reddish sun, I must admit, the sunset here is more beautiful than my favorite place I usually go, he said, maybe in Jakarta it has been mixed with smoke pollution and dense buildings, so it is not as beautiful as I see it today.


“Agak backwards dong...biar background sunsetnya hit all..” said one of the women, I was reluctant to turn ,


I continued to look at the sun that soon would be gone by night.


“Brukkk...” arrived three women fell to the sandy beach in front of me and one of them fell on the back and then


they laughed loudly at themselves, apparently when they were about to take pictures, one of the women tripped on my body and because they were holding each other, they fell to the beach together.


“Sorry yes mas...sorry really yes?:” said they are almost simultaneously accompanied by the roar of laughter. I just reply with


thin smile.


“Adrian...this is really you...?” said one of the women who was holding a mobile phone when going to take a photo of her friend who fell earlier.


I looked behind me…


“Sis....ca..?” I said very surprised


“ You know Sis....?” Said one of his girlfriends who had hit my body.


“Iya...formerly while still in Jakarta..” Sisca explained to them.


“Huuu...kalo know you know this guy ..Tadi I asked on my bench all at once..” said the woman while laughing.


bahak bahak, followed by his friend.


“Eh you guys first huh..? later if Satrio contact you guys, say I'm still overtime huh?” sisca said to


his third friend


“Wah...we are told to lie nih.....there must be money to cover his mouth nih...” said one of his friends while laughing again giggling.


“Iya...the point is sorted..now...huss....husss...” Sisca replied with a laugh and moved his hand like driving a chicken into the yard .


I chuckled at all their funny babbles, then nodded their heads as they parted from before me and Sisca.


“What are you doing here Adrian...?” Sisca said while sitting next to me, staring at the sun that almost sank entirely on the horizon there.


“I'm having business meeting clients, singaporeans.


near , rather than they have to go to Jakarta.” I replied.


“And you? What are you doing here ..” Reply, the atmosphere began to dark, but the light of the lights from the street lights and also the hotel around gave a little bright light.


“You forgot yes? Or did he not know? I do live here.and Batam is small like Jakarta.


just go home to work.that was my coworker friend..” replied Sisca explained.


 “Papa mama how are you…? Healthy shat ya?” Sisca asked back while glancing at me


“ Papa died a year ago.mama is healthy..now live with me with my Wife and children.also Asty” replied me.


“Innalilahi...sorry I don't know...you why did you report me?” reply Sisca, terbesit slightly disappointed look on his face.


“Your wife ...what's her name? Who had met at the Jakarta mall at that time..mmmm.” said Sisca while putting her index finger on her chin trying to remember.


“Debby….? She's not my wife….The wife and mother of my child is Ita...the woman I once left and chose you...” sahutku with a raucous voice.


Sisca's face looked a little confused..”.Then Debby...?” she asked again with her astonished face.


“Long Story Sisca...much has happened and what I went through after you left...” Answer me again while


smokes my cigarette smoke.
