My boyfriend the White Tiger
effort for grandfather


"Iren.." call Nathan.


Iren just turned to look at Nathan. Nathan approached Iren, who had been daydreaming, standing by the iron fence of the ship.


Iren continued to daydream, his eyes looking towards the pounding water hit by the ship, but not with his mind that continued to float..


"Why are you hemm??" ask Nathan.


"How come" Iren replied with a forced smile.


"Don't lie Ren.. I saw you daydream.. What are you thinking??" ask Nathan.


"So, I'm confused by all this.. Either this is a dream or it is like this" replied Iren Iirih.


"You mean? About us?" ask Nathan.


Iren just kept quiet, I don't know what he should answer. Even himself was not entirely sure what he was currently living through..


"If it's true what I said.. What makes you confused?? Which... Sometimes, what we live in this world we cannot think logically about.. We are given the choice to decide where to go.. I'm sorry if I pulled you into my world.. I know until now you haven't fully believed all of this.. Who I am and Joseph is" Nathan said.


"Reb, one thing you have to believe.. My feelings for you never lie.. I love you not because of who you are, not because of compassion" Nathan said grasping Iren's finger gently.


Iren stared fixedly at Nathan, slowly Nathan hugged Iren tightly.. Spreading out all the feelings he felt.


Orange scattering in the sky accompanied them, and the pounding water that hit the ship added to the romantic atmosphere.


Iren returned Nathan's embrace with his eyes closed, channeling his longing and comfort into Nathan's arms.


"I miss you" Iren muttered..


"Well, can you repeat?" ask Nathan.


"I'm ashamed" Iren replied, hiding his face from Nathan's chest.


"Shame on who hmmm, come on baby.. Say it again" Nathan said.


"I miss you Nathan." replied Iren.


"I miss you a lot too" Nathan answered breaking his embrace and kissing his forehead.


"Nathan, how's Grandpa doing??" ask Iren.


"Oh, the wound is quite deep" Nathan replied sadly.


"I'm sorry" Iren replied lowered his head.


"Hey why are you apologizing hmmm?? It's not your fault Iren.. We just pray that grandfather is okay." said Nathan holding both shoulders Iren and Iren just nodded.


"We go in yuk, the wind is getting stronger.. And you rest.. Do not let you get sick, surely mother and others will worry you very much." Nathan said holding Iren's hand invites to enter.


"Than.." call dad..


"Darling, you rest.. Don't think of anything like that." Nathan said.


"Yes.. Dad, Iren go in first yeah" said Iren and I just nodded.


Iren leaves father and Nathan.


"What's up.. What's with grandpa." asked Nathan.


"Grandfather's getting weaker Than.. I don't know how to.. It's in the middle of the sea." replied Dad.


"I hope Grandpa is strong, that's what Nathan expects.. Still long till land, huh??" ask Nathan.


"About 3 hours, Than." replied the father.


"Dad, can't you help in any other way??" ask Nathan.


"It's been.. But in the scar there was a poison that had already flowed in grandfather's blood.. Grandpa's wounds are closed.. But you can't prevent the spread of the poison." replied the father.


"Is it really dangerous??" ask Nathan.


"In the long run deadly, Than. I'm afraid, your grandfather couldn't hold out to fight the poison." replied the father.


Nathan let out a deep sigh, he also did not know what to do..


"There's one way.. But I'm not sure." said dad.


"Yes, combine the energies in both of us. But given our physical condition, I'm afraid to endanger grandfather" replied the father.


"We tried first.. We won't know until we try.. At least this worked just to make grandfather survive" Nathan said.


"Are you sure Than??" said dad hesitated..


"Nathan is sure of the reward." replied Nathan.


"Arya will also come" said Arya arrived.


"Arya" said Nathan and father together.


"Uncle, don't forget Arya.. My grandfather too.. Whatever happens with grandfather, Arya will try to help him ", Arya said.


"Well then, we do it now. Ease with the energy of the three of us can help grandfather. Arya, please grandpa's men tell you to stand guard at the door" Dad said.


"Good uncle." replied Arya.


The three of them also headed together to the room where grandfather was lying weak..


Before heading to the grandfather's room, Arya first asked some of the grandfather's men to stand guard at the door. Given there was Andi from the Tiger clan.


Not to disbelieve it, but just to keep watch that incidentally he had worked with Yosep.

"Bun, Mother eat yes.. Since yesterday, my mother has not eaten.. Later the mother is sick" persuaded Ririn.


"Mother is full Rin.." replied the mother while daydreaming.


"Ayoolaahh bun, you must stay fit when you meet Iren and the others later.." Ririn continued to persuade mother.


"But they had no news of Rin" Mother began to cry.


"Mr.. We pray together... To keep them all safe. Now eat first and then rest.. Look, my face looks pale" Tantri persuaded..


"Ayokk bun, Ririn inter room yes.. Later food let bi Marni deliver.. Mother just calm down, they must have survived" said Ririn again.


Bundapun just nodded then woke up from his seat assisted Ririn. Mother looks very worried, even since she received a call from her father her eyes are very difficult to shut down.


There are black eye bags under your eyes, indicating a lack of sleep. Even just to eat one mouthful was very reluctant.

Father helped Nathan position grandfather to sit down. Dad sat behind Grandpa with both palms with each attached to grandfather's shoulder. While Arya and Nathan were side by side, each holding the shoulder with their hands copied the interlocked.


Now that they were ready, the three of them took out their inner strength to slightly help grandfather from the poison from Joseph.


They were concentrated, until sweat dripped and wetted their clothes.


Long enough they channeled the energy in them to grandfather. They were clearly exhausted on their faces.


Especially Nathan, who has not long healed from his internal wounds when fighting with Peter.


His face was already paled, even occasionally his body looks will fall if Arya does not hold it.


"Uhukis.. Uhuk.." Grandpa coughed.


Hearing grandfather coughing, father ended their ritual. It looks like Grandpa spewed fresh blood from his mouth. So also with Nathan who immediately collapsed his body to hit Arya. On his lips was seeping blood though not as much as grandfather.


"Uncle.. Nathan.." said Arya.


After checking on Grandpa's condition, I took turns checking on Nathan.


"Uncle.." Arya looked at dad.


"He was just exhausted from pushing himself too much.. Let him rest" replied the father.


"Then grandpa??" ask Arya.


"Your grandfather hasn't fully recovered, but it's been better.. May we land soon so that uncle can immediately treat your grandfather" replied the father.


"Yes uncle, it's easy." replied Arya.


Arya then took Nathan to a more comfortable place to rest for a moment.
