"Dad Bang, every month when the girl came to the market, she always bought a mother's sale to share with the street children. If not for sale mother, the girl will replace it with ice sandal pack galang. Try to return the body" the mother explained.
Andra turned her body and smiled her smile because the words of the stall owner's mother were very true. Andra smiled to see Viara who was buying ice cendol belonging to an old grandfather and distributed it to the street children around him
"Ohh Viaraku" murmured Andra in flowers
"True my words Bang" said the owner of the stall was nodding his head by Andra with a smile.

Along the way home, Viara always smiled and laughed happily at the babble and joke from Andra
"Hahah, it turns out that behind the face of the brother who is very sad, there is also a side of humor" exclaimed Viara behind Andra
"Dad Bang, even the disciples adek in the village if you want to run away" said Viara with a laugh
"Hahha, they don't know your brother yet, if they already know, definitely on playing with your brother" Andra said while watching the street in front of him. Viara smiled and wrapped her hands around Andra's waist

In front of the army post
"It turns out, Viara is the girl that Danru has loved for a long time" said Denis, who hangs out in front of the post with her partner
"Dad Bang, I did not expect Danru's love was still very strong on Viara's deck, even though they were separated 8 years ago loh"
Pandu just fell silent while listening to the chatter and stories of his friends
"Ehh Bang Pandu, why just shut up, let's talk together?" Bring Bang Jaya
"I'm just tired, so I can't talk much" Pandu denied smiling thinly
"Ohh better just rest here well, we will go to the village hall first, there is something to be taken care of about the safety and comfort of residents who live around the lake" said Bang Jaya
"Judah let me take care of the post, you go" replied Pandu
"Good Bang" cried the soldiers simultaneously. The soldiers who stepped in simultaneously leaving the post instantly stopped their steps when they saw Danru they had arrived from picking up Viara
"Hey deck, how's it going?" Ask a gentle Denis pratu
"Alhamdulillah good Bang, this is a souvenir from the city, later brothers eat together well" said Viara friendly
"Ohh thank you deck" reply pratu Denis received 10 boxes of chicken geprek given Viara followed by other soldiers
"Together Bang" Viara replied smilingly
"Where are you going? really rame" asked Andra confused to see the personnel
"You go to Bang village hall, there will be something to take care of there" replied Bang Jaya
"Ohh yaudah, I'm coming" Andra said wearing her hat
"But Bang, my brother is still tired after a long trip here, later my brother is sick" said Viara worried
"Calm down the deck, brother is okay. Wait for brother to come back well" Andra said smiling as she kissed Viara's back hand
Pandu immediately averted his eyes when he saw the intimacy before his heart grew broken
"Be careful Bang" Viara said waving her hand at the soldiers walking towards the village hall.
Viara stopped her steps to return home because she saw Pandu sitting alone in front of the post. Viara smiled and walked up to Pandu with a box of food in her hand
"Bang Pandu, why are you alone here?" Viara asked sitting beside Pandu.
Pandu did not flinch and just stared straight ahead with his mind empty. Inadvertently clear circles escaped from his eyes because he was unable to accept reality. Viara who saw that wiped away the tears on Pandu's cheeks gently while smiling at him
"What do you think?" Viara asked stroking Pandu's trembling back. Pandu immediately wiped his tears and tried to publish his smile on the girl beside him
"Abang is okay, brother just misses home" Pandu denied while showing his fake smile to Viara. Viara stared fixedly at Pandu's eyes, there was a lot of sadness and deep wounds listed there. Even Pandu's eyes look a little damp and red as if they are holding something alone
"Abang can't lie as adek" Viara rubbed Pandu's cheek gently
"No deck, brother is not lying, really" Reply Pandu smiled to tell Viara if she was okay.
Viara who can read and see the truth of speech in someone's eyes, let alone the voice of Pandu who sounded a little quivering, smiled her smile and gently stroked the back of Pandu again
"Although the wound in the heart is very painful, or the burden hit by the mind and body is very heavy, you do not have to keep it. Take out the burdensome burden on your heart. Father once said that if a man who cries does not mean he is a crybaby, he is also a human who has a sensitive heart and feelings, not much different from women. Take out what is bothering you bang, our hearts also need to rest from the many burdens borne alone.do not force the eyes to continue to stem the tears that want to come out" said Viara softly.
Instantly Pandu shed his tears and reflexively hugged the girl tightly beside him
Viara stroked Pandu's trembling back and let Pandu cry silently on her shoulder. Viara gently rubbed her back trying to calm Pandu who despite being silent, but Viara knew that the handsome man was crying profusely on her shoulder
"You know the deck, my dear brother is with you. Don't want your brother to see you with him, your brother's heart is always broken watching that deck. Brother has tried to convey this feeling, but brother failed to deck. Brother is not strong, brother is not capable. This love is too deep for you until you forget how to make it. Brother just wants to live with you, why doesn't God allow us to be together" Pandu's inner self keeps dropping her tears and hugging Viara tightly.
Viara continued to stroke Pandu's back until Pandu was comfortable with the touch. Feeling Pandu had calmed down, Viara lifted Pandu's face and wiped away the reminiscing tears on her cheeks and the corners of her eyes
"Yeah, don't cry anymore. If you miss your brother's family in the village, it's right here. Adek also includes family and brother sister is not" said Viara holding both cheeks Pandu and rubbing it gently. Viara wiped Pandu's tears while smiling sweetly at him
Viara took Pandu's green beret on the table and re-clad it on Pandu's head
"Now rise. Keep trying to achieve what you want. Maybe now you haven't managed to have it, but what about tomorrow? May you manage to have it in the most beautiful way according to God well" Pandu cheer his smile to hear Viara's speech just now.
His heart felt warm and re-energized as if there was still a light of happiness for him.
"My brother is so much better looking when he smiles. Tell me has this handsome brother eaten?" Viara's question was answered by Pandu's head
"Jaudah now you eat well, here is a bribe". Viara began to feed Pandu painstakingly and told about her experience teaching children until Pandu smiled
"Abang believed the adek words just now. There must be a plan prepared by Him for the happiness of my brother. Maybe today brother is not happy, but someday brother will get it. Let this love remain in my heart forever, let me take care of you from afar, keep not necessarily be a companion, right? But take care of you with all my heart like a brother to you. I'll still be your brother and you'll still be my sister"
