meeting without regrets

60. meeting without regrets

Kha arrives at the police station with her two in-laws. At first he was taken to the main lobby for registration, then headed to the second floor to the room with the inscription R. CHECK THE. The room is narrow, the walls are without paint and there are only two chairs under the opposite table, impressed horror for anyone who is first in the place.

Actually Kha feels uncomfortable in one room with another man, but he must obey the law by following the examination procedure. Not long after, a uniformed man entered a laptop. The officer who was about to interrogate her flicked a finger towards the cctv as well as the black-colored glass window in front of her.

The interrogation began....

“Mother Aishleen Khadijah, wife of Albiru Adityawarman. Today we will interview you as a witness with regard to the alleged murder committed by Albiru's brother. Are you ready?” ask the investigating officer.

Kha nodded slowly and answered softly, “insya Allah, I am willing.”

After Kha put his signature on a piece of file, he began to be frowned upon with questions about anything that happened that night. Starting from questions that he can easily answer, to repeated questions that almost disperse his focus.

3 Hours passed, dozens of questions had already been thrown at him. There are no signs yet that the interrogation will end. Upon arriving Kha gave a straightforward and loud statement about what he saw and knew that night, then the investigating officer ended his interview session as a witness.

“Alhamdulillah ..” muttered Kha

He exited the room, approaching the Clouds and Dusk waiting on the first floor. It turns out that there is already Barid, Acha, Pak Agus, also Dentar who will also undergo an examination like him.

“Already, Kha?” ask Cloud. Kha nodded even though he was actually very tired.

“Already, Pa ...” answer.

Dusk thrust mineral water, he also slipped a bottle into a veil to drink. “Capek really, son? You dizzy?”

“No, Ma, just lemes dikit.” replied Kha

“You sit down first, wait a minute there is an officer who brought your luggage, it was finished in the first check his belongings. After that you follow the officer just to meet Blue.” said Awan.

“Papa Sama did not meet mas Biru?”

“Busuk limited hours, son, same mom Acha also want to check, ‘kan. You enjoy the same time Blue yes, when it is finished there Barid equally Undaunted wait here.”

The clouds left after ushering themselves into the holding room. The space this time was different from before. If previously he could face directly, this time he and Blue separated between the glass bulkhead with many small holes.

Kha handed the papperbag to the officer who was going to bring it to Blue, then entered the narrow room. She was restless waiting for Blue's presence, afraid that she could not help being legowo so as not to burden her husband. Not even a faint rumble in his chest, Blue emerged from the door in the opposite room.

Kha was silent for a moment. The blue look using the prisoner clothes really made his heart hurt. Moreover, he saw there was a wound in the corner of Blue's lips that were already half dry. If only Blue had not smiled, perhaps tears had escaped the fertilizer. Immediately he threw away his anxiety and returned Blue's smile with a wave of his hand.

“Assalamualaikum, Darling ..” Blue put a hand on the glass, he followed by sticking his hand.

“Waalaikumsalam, Mas.”

“You're healthy?” ask Blue.

“Used checked as a witness huh? Must be tiring.” hiss Blue.

“So tired, but tired is gone now. There's a cure.”

“Mana?”

“Ituuu.” Kha pointed at Blue. Her husband shook his head.

For a few minutes they were silent, staring at each other. No sound, no touch. They let go of longing through the look of the eyes that maybe people will be satisfied to see it.

“Sorry to me, Honey. I've made your life difficult. That night I had to control my emotions. I really had no intention of killing Hendar. I swear by Allah I, I-I,” Blue lowered her shoulders, her shoulders up and down it was clear that she was crying.

Kha repeatedly inhaled and then exhaled slowly. He had to hold on so that Blue also did not blame himself continuously.

“You are not wrong, Mom. Had I been in your position that night, I would have done the same. I will still save you even if I have to hurt others,” said Kha, “I know you only want to protect your precious possession, ‘kan? Yes ‘kan, Mas?”

Kha was very relieved to see Blue smiling at her reply. Yeah, it should be like this. Support each other even in a bad state. Such is the task of a couple, strengthening each other when at the lowest point. Because of the lowest point in our lives, only we ourselves can cope.

“Teach me like you, darling.” says Blue whisper.

“What like? A wafer? Which crunchy outside soft inside?” seloroh Kha's.

Again Blue laughed, this time more forcefully made the officer to peek from the door glass.

“You why so little gini anyway, Darling.”

“Yes, in the same a cowardly and annoying guy. Eh but now it is not cowardly, nyisa just nyebelinya.” Blue rubbed the glass that was pointing at his face, hurriedly he brought the face closer together.

“I love you, Kha ..” Blue tasting glass. This time Kha was really powerless to hold back the tears that had calmed down earlier. He sobbed for a moment and wiped away the tears with his veil.

“Oh yes. I bring good news,” said Kha made Blue raise an eyebrow. He took his phone from the bag and showed a video of himself with two kittens, “taraaaaa, this is his son Aming, I give BHIKA the same name KHABI.”

“Aming already have children?”

Kha nodded. “iya, two! You're shocked ‘kan? Same me too, 'cause I think Aming guy.”

“That makes a surprise his name anyway, dear. It turns out that you are the same as me until the cat name uses our abbreviation.” Blue ledek.

Kha stood with a waist. Throwing a sharp look at Blue who had not also stopped laughing at him. Unfortunately time quickly passed, Kha had not had time to reply to Blue's tease when the officer reminded that the clock had run out. They ended the meeting without regret.

He doesn't know what's going to happen in the future. Just thinking about it makes him creep. But from a brief meeting of the terms of that meaning, Kha made a promise to herself. Whatever the decision, he will always be faithful to accompany Blue until fate reunites in a unique way, like their first meeting.
