"Bapi why? pain in the hands, papi?" asked Sania that morning.
At the end of Sunday, Adzilla visited Soldier with Joseph's father and his two children. Hana and Heri were also in the Army's ward.
The soldiers ask Adzilla to raise Sania on a gurney sitting next to her. "It hurts, but just a little. Nia ate?"
"Have, mama hasn't pi." Like the almost 4-year-old boy had started complaining.
Soldiers looked directly at the bowed Adzilla. "Why haven't you eaten yet, who?"
Their arrangements met then Adzilla turned his face away. "You've eaten yet?" not his answer but ask the soldiers.
The soldier himself held a smile as if understanding from Adzilla's question. "Not yet, eat with yuk." invite him to Adzilla immediately eat.
Sure enough, a happy twinkle emanated from the eyes of his heart adoration. This is what he misses so much. Close to Adzilla, Satria and Sania. The three of them could always make themselves feel less alone.
"Did you eat?" ask the soldier to Satria, who was sitting beside Joseph's father.
"Already, pi."
"Abang, already playing his cell phone. From then on it has not stopped either." reprimanded Soldier to Satria because the boy was busy playing games on his cellphone.
Like the undisputed king. Satria immediately according to what the soldier said and the boy walked towards him returning the phone.
"Thank you, pi." The boy's words made the Soldier nod and then scramble the boy's hair.
While waiting for Adzilla to pick up the food, Soldier responds to a conversation between Satria and Sania. He also had to answer why he never visited Joseph's father again.
In the corner of the nursery were Father Joseph, Hana, and Heri sitting on the floor mats chatting with mineral bottled water and bread that Adzilla had prepared before.
"As." call Adzilla.
He had not yet responded to Sania already making a sound. "Why do you call that papi As? mama said if you want to call must papi?"
Soldier's lips folded inwards holding a smile at Sania's question and the expression on Adzilla's face.
Adzilla himself swallowed the saliva when asked like that. "Ah yes, papi" he said as he glanced at the soldier who was smiling triumphantly.
...****...
Hana saw the soldier who looked cheerful as before was also happy. Although the attitude of Soldier is still indifferent to him but does not make the sense of happiness is reduced.
"Sir. When is Zilla ready to marry Soldier?" hana asked Joseph's father.
"Aren't you in a hurry, son Hana?" not answering and asking that.
"Faster is better, sir. Soldiers now live in their own rented house. He's still mad at me. I don't want him to be home alone and there'll be slander if Zilla plays there often."
Joseph's father nodded.
"The NA letter is also taken care of, right?" joseph's father asked Hana.
"Yes, the letter in his NA is still in my possession, sir."
"alright. Tomorrow they marry."
...****...
The next day, today is the time for Soldiers to be allowed to go home after a week in care. Adzilla is also present but there is something strange according to him.
Her heart adoration looks very pretty with a white robe and today Adzilla is dressing up.
"Where are you going, baby?" ask Soldier to hold back his curiosity.
"You'll pick you up, As."
"But why dress like that? I don't like it baby and there's no me."
Adzilla chuckled without answering as he was helping Soldiers down from the gurney. Reza came in with a change of clothes and Adzilla left the room.
After Soldier changed clothes even though he himself still felt wondering why he was wearing all white clothes but still obeyed wearing these clothes.
But the doctor said not for months waiting to heal because it is not as bad as imagined.
"Za, where are we going?" ask the soldier curious because Reza also wears neat clothes.
"You go to the Mosque." Reza replied briefly making Adzilla smile seeing the face of the Army confused.
"Well?" ask the soldier again.
"So Adzilla's wedding witness."
The soldier immediately stopped his steps and looked at Adzilla sharply. "Darling, why do you always have the heart for me?"
Adzilla did not respond to choose to continue to withdraw the Soldier to get into the car.
...****...
At the mosque not far from the rented house of the Soldiers saw Hana, Heri, Yusuf's father, and also some citizens invited to attend. Two of Soldier's friends were also present there as photographers.
In the rented house there are also some neighbors who are preparing food that will be served later when the bride has arrived.
"Does the real soldier know yet?" ask Hana.
Hana nodded then laughed making Heri shake her head. Joseph's father sat quietly. Not sad, but grateful and hope that his daughter's marriage this time is the last marriage until the end of life. Of course he did not forget to pray for happiness and blessings for Adzilla's life.
...****...
"Because I have to wear these shoes? like I'm the bride." Soldier grumbled and opened his shoes with his feet.
Still with a moping face durja. He walked first and sat down at Adzilla's wedding witness.
"Whether are you sitting there, soldier boy?" ask Joseph's Father.
"And I want to be a witness to Zilla's marriage, father." said Soldier trying to be okay. If only Joseph's father had known. I wanted to cry at that moment.
Let it be said crybaby, but imagining it is very painful let alone having to feel it.
"Sit in front, dad. Do you want to make Mr. Penghulu wait for your babble?"
Soldiers flinching to make Joseph's father again give an edict to him and finally he obeyed.
Soldiers were given a scrap of paper bearing the full names of Adzilla and Joseph's father.
"Their legacy is up to you. If I can hurry."
Soldier silently saw a scrap of paper and then realized that he was the one who would marry Adzilla. Quickly reach into the wallet and take out whatever money is in it.
"Well, there's 727,000."
"Nothing."
...****...
A few moments later. The word SAH was said an hour ago. Neither Soldier nor Adzilla spoke much because Adzilla's cousins came.
But, occasionally their gazes met and threw a timid smile. Not to forget Adzilla always helps Soldiers if they find it difficult to do something. Both Adzilla's sons were very enthusiastic about the marriage of Soldier and Adzilla.
The temptation of the cousins to the Soldiers continued. "Ciye.. New bride. But it's a pity, isn't it? his hand hurts, can't hold Zilla."
"Yes, it's getting better. Zilla's working tonight."
The two newlyweds could only bow in embarrassment.
