The Blocked Love of Amnesia
Twenty-nine: The Return of Risa's Memory and Renaldi's Threat

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi. Bismillaahirrahmaanirrahim. Happy reading.

Risa now brought Ita to her home. From now on he will take care of Risa. Because Renaldi could have been more sinister than the kidnapping.

"Ta, why did you say Renaldi was evil?"

"The real one, Risa! He kidnapped you and he pretended to be there to be a hero. It was all he had planned."

"You sure?" ask Risa. Risa also feels strange, even though she did not send the location where she was kidnapped to anyone except Ita. How did Renaldi know he was there?

Ita nodded, "I'm sure. And I'm also sure that what made you crash that time was Renaldi!"

Risa jerks. "If I remember the same incident, maybe now I won't worry like this,"

"I'm sure you'll remember your past, Ris."

Lisa tried to smile. Ita rubbed Risa's shoulder slowly giving a sense of spirit and never giving up so that Risa did not fall down continuously with her condition.

"And one more, Ris. What put Ahmad in a coma was because of Renaldi!" he said, making Risa even more jerky.

"Astaghfirullah," he said. The clear grain fell, it felt very sensitive when he heard Ahmad. His heart was in a longing for Ahmad. "Taa, Ahmad how is he?" ask Risa as soon as possible.

Ita hugged Risa then sobbed. "Ahmad's still in a coma, Ris,"

"O Allah" said Risa, the tears were flowing again.

Ita let go of his embrace then wiped away her tears.

"Risa, you don't cry. I'm afraid your future child why-why, when pregnant you don't mind most."

Risa lowered her head, staring deeply at her tummy covered in clothes. Risa stroked that bulging stomach. "You have to be strong, yes, honey," he said. The clear circle fell back to wet the clothes Risa was wearing.

This morning, Risa will go to the hospital after a week of staying at Ita's house and not going out at all. For a week he was just busy cooking with his mother Ita. Ita told her Mama about what happened to Risa at this time. Her mother understood and over the past week, when Ita was working Risa spent her time with Mama Ita. He is friendly and very kind.

And today Risa forced Ita to visit Ahmad. Risa is getting more agitated because during this week she did not meet with Ahmad. Although he knew the news from Ita that Ahmad was still in a coma, but Risa still wanted to visit Ahmad.

Risa and Ita had arrived at the hospital by noon, Jakarta which was jammed hampered their trip. Risa opened the door to Ahmad's room and then entered, followed by Ita.

How happy his father-in-law could meet his only son-in-law again. Uminya Ahmad immediately ran to hug Risa, for a long time he hugged Risa.

"Son, how are you, darling?" her tan then stroked Risa's hair, the caress reminded Risa of Mother. Risa's tears are melting again.

"I'm sorry, I don't want who you are," he said then bowed.

Ahmad hugged Risa again. "It's not your fault my son, it's all fate. God willing, you will soon remember who we are, and who Ahmad is" he said to calm Risa down. Risa glanced at Ahmad, he was still the same as the last time Risa was with him.

"Allaahu Akbarullaahu Akbar," a melodious chant of adhan sounded.

"We pray dzuhur together yu," Umi asked.

Risa nodded.

* * *

Risa raised her hand, asking and forgiving to the Creator. May he soon remember his past, and may Ahmad open his eyes soon. The two pleas flew towards the sky. However, one of them had not been allowed to reach the sky. Not time.

Risa cleared her face then turned to look towards Umi and Ita. They still do. Risa decided to go first to Ahmad's room. I think he misses that handsome guy.

Klek, he opened the door. Ahmad was still lying there alone. Risa's tears are melting again.

Risa walked towards Ahmad then sat on the chair beside his bed. Risa reached for Ahmad's arm and held him tightly.

"Baa" he said still with tears flowing.

Risa stood up and brought her lips closer to Ahmad's cheek. And kissed her for a long time. The shadow of the past is coming back. Lisa held her head. So dizzy. He sat weakly on the chair, and his hand was still firmly grasped by Ahmad.

"Baa," she cried out in pain, her tears rising.

The shadow of the past is becoming clearer. The shadow that had been gray and faint, now felt real for Risa. The glowing face of the man could now be seen. And that's Ahmad.

Risa smiled happily.

The shadow of the past came back into his memory, as if it was transferring past memories that Risa had experienced. One by one, infiltrate into Risa's memory until Risa feels that reality.

The shadows were already fully filled in Risa's memory.

Starting from the news about the sick Mother, Risa returned home, Mother's mandate, her marriage in the hospital, the departure of her mother, drove her sisters to the boarding house, lived in Jakarta with Ahmad, and, decided to go headscarf and crash with Renaldi.

Yep!!! Risa remembers all that. Risa let go of the tight grip on her head then immediately hugged Ahmad.

Risa immediately turned to the floor and made a prostration of gratitude.

"Rabbi au ji'ni an assykuro ni'matakallati an 'amta 'alayya wa 'ala waalidayya wa an a'mala sholihan 'tardhohu wa adkhilni birahmatika fii 'ibaadikash shaalihiin ...."

Risa rose and greeted, after which she returned to Ahmad's arms who were still unconscious.

"Abaaa, wake. Do I remember who you are? Baaa, wake up, Ba!"

Clamps. The door of the room opens. Risa smiled happily, it must be Ita and her in-laws. They must be happy with the return of Risa's memory.

However, the smile on Risa's lips faded. That's not them. Except Renaldi.

"You! Why can you live? You killed yourself in the ravine!" jeremy Risa.

Renaldi was amazing. Apparently Risa's memory has returned.

"You're evil! You made the brakes on the car I brought you blong! You did that on purpose, Ren? And yesterday you were the one who kidnapped me?" snapped Risa.

Renaldi approached Risa and told her to shut up. His eyes were sharp and his face was cold, three hundred and sixty degrees different from the Renaldi he had first known.

"Take me, Ren!" risa snapped, but this time in a low voice.

"Yes, I made the brakes on the car blong, I put your husband in a coma and I told people to kidnap you! And that's all I do because I love you!" he firmly then stared at Risa's rough face.

Risa took a step back, however, now she was afraid of this evil Renaldi.

Renaldi walked up to Ahmad and rubbed his neck.

"What do you want to do?" jeremy Risa.

"Shuuuu!" Renaldi hinted that Risa would not make a scene in the room. "If you scream incoherently, this knife will be ready to slit his neck!" firmly Renaldi then smiled wickedly.

Risa's eyes were rounded when she saw the sharp knife issued by Renaldi from inside the suit she was wearing.

"Don't hurt Aba! What do you want? I'll do it, just don't hurt him! I beg you," Risa cried. What should he do now? Seek help? Yep! He had to open the door and seek help. Risa glanced towards the door.

"You wanna try to get out?" hiss Renaldi then brought the sharp knife closer to Ahmad's neck.

"STOP! RENALY! Please don't hurt Aba. Come on, what do you want? I'll take care of everything!!!" Risa then came back crying.

"Renaldi put the knife back in his suit. "You should marry me!" snapped it.

Risa nodded stiffly. Although his heart shook.

"If you are a macem, then I will slit your husband's throat!"threaten Renaldi's. Risa shuddered and shuddered in horror, why could Renaldi become a psychopath like this.

Renaldi immediately left the room. But he stopped his steps and returned. He gently stroked Risa's cheek then said. "I love you, Ris" he said, leaving.

Risa rubbed off the touch of Renaldi's hand with her shirt. It was disgusting to be touched by that man. Now Renaldi is a man he hates.

Risa ran towards Ahmad then made sure that her neck was okay.

"Baa, what should I do? I'm afraid," he then hugged Ahmad's body.

Clamps, the door to the room is open again. Risa immediately beware, lest it's Renaldi. But it wasn't. Except they were her in-laws and Ita, and Andrea.

"Sorry old Ris, I met Andrea at the mosque, uh we even chatted, huh, right, Mi?"

"Yes, hehe," Umi chuckled.

While Risa was staring one by one. Her tears are melting again.

Ita frowned then walked closer to Risa. Umipun.

"Why you?"

Risa just looked at Ita and Umi alternately then came back crying. He did not answer Ita's question.

What's he supposed to do? Telling them he was cured and threatened by Renaldi or keeping quiet as if he was still amnesiac? Oh God how is this?
