Aeleya's Story

SEVENS

Finally arrived on the day of Aeleya's departure. Early in the morning Aleeya was ready and neat with a robe outfit and a long, light blue veil covering her curves. After breakfast, Aleeya said goodbye to her parents and younger siblings to head straight to the port. Aeleya departs for port escorted by Aleezar. Before leaving, Mama Aleeya gave a lot of messages to Aleeya. Because it was Aeleya who had never been in a different city from her parents, which made Aeleya's parents feel a bit heavy to let go of her eldest child. So does Papa Aleeya who looks a bit moody and does not talk much. But they are sure Aleeya will be fine there.

Along the way to the harbor, Aeleya was more silent and daydreaming. His mind branched - branch. There were many things he had imagined and he was also worried about. Aeleya felt a bit hesitant because her departure to the archipelago is now alone, unlike last year with Delfi and 3 other college friends. The beginning of Aeleya can take the test there is because of Delfi's invitation. Aeleya has known Delfi since High School. They attended the same high school and were quite close at the time. And in the past when 1st grade High School Delfi had dated Aal who even though Aleeya also harbored a taste for the man. Since then the closeness of Aeleya and Delfi was a bit tenuous until finally they continued midwifery and in the same campus as well.

Despite being in the same campus back then, Aleeya and Delfi had always been cold to each other. They talk and say hello as necessary. Their friendship was once very close. But Aeleya did not take too much care about it, at that time he was principled if people were cold and indifferent to him then he would be more cold and indifferent to the person. His ego was very high at that time, even He could not tolerate anyone who harassed him. He will not start first to say hello or talk. Well.. That was how Aeleya used to be. Aeleya who is Arrogant and stubborn.

After graduating from college, they are busy with their own way of life. They did not press long until Aleeya finally began to find her way of hijra. And a year ago Aleeya met Delfi in a bookstore. They look excited and immediately exchange phone numbers regardless of what has happened between them. And it just so happened that there was the opening of the PNS test in the newly developing District area. Delfi invited Aeleya to take a test there which happened to be a family Delfi who lived there. Aeleya immediately accepted Delfi's invitation. They stayed at the Delfi house for three days..

Then a few days ago, Delfi told Aeleya that she graduated while DelfI herself did not graduate. At first Aeleya felt bad because she was hitchhiking at the Delfi family home, even her graduation while Delfi was not. But, Delfi was not envious at all and took issue with it. Instead, he was happy and even offered Aeleya a temporary stay at his family's home while re-listing nantik.

"That sustenance has its measure, yes. Never been confused. And this is your sustenance. So why should I be angry or spiteful just because I'm talking to you and living in my family's house." He said at the time on the phone.

"You don't worry, yeah. There's my family there. My aunt is a very nice person, helpful and very sensitive, Yes. So, I suggest you stay there again tomorrow. Nantik I tell my aunt, she must be happy. Moreover, he has no daughters, his children are 4 men all." Furthermore, Delfi then convinced Lya to want to stay at his tantenya house. Aeleya who indeed had no other choice finally accepted the offer Delfi.

About half an hour drive finally arrived Aeleya and Aleezar at the Port. Aleezar parked his bike after that and helped Aeleya carry her suitcase inside. There's still 10 minutes left before the ship leaves. Aleeya and Aleezar sat in the waiting chair. Aleezar looked at his gloomy-looking brother.

"Sister Yes.. Why?" Ask Aleezar.

"What's wrong Li.." Answer Aeleya.

"Not why but why did Ali Pay attention since then just be quiet. My face is also gloomy. Not that a few days ago you were so happy." Said Ali. Aleeya took a deep breath. It is true what Ali said. He was very happy because of his graduation but this time he felt a bit different. Hard to express.

"Sister.. Sorry Ali can't help sister. If Ali is no longer a semester exam, Ali will be joining brother." Said Ali.

"Yes Ali kak understands that you are indeed again the final test. You focus on the test. Don't worry. You are all right." Aleeya said with a smile.

"But if there's anything or if you need Ali's help.. Let Ali know quickly.. If it's an emergency Ali will definitely catch up with brother."  Aleeya smiled again at this one-of-a-kind brother's words.

"OK, Ready" Aleeya replied later.

Teeeett.........

The sound of the ship's siren shocked the two of them. Signs the ship is leaving soon. It's time for Aleeya to leave. Aleezar shook Aleeya's hand. Then Aleeya embraced her sister. And a moment later with heavy footsteps Aeleya entered the ship.

***

In the boat, Aleeya sat on the side of the window. He sat down according to the number of tickets he ordered. Aleeya threw her gaze out the window, looking at the brownish-colored expanse of the sea. The ship had already moved far away from the harbor, but Aeleya's heart and mind were still left there. It was as if he was not enjoying the journey at the time. A second later Aleeya turned her left side view. There are only empty seats. In Aeleya's heart thought that there might indeed be no one sitting next to her. Or maybe the guy was late and missed the boat. I don't know..

Aleeya closed her eyes for a moment. Suddenly, sleepiness began to take hold of him. Maybe because last night he couldn't sleep well. He woke up and thought about his departure. Aleeya yawned a few times. He tried to refrain from falling asleep but unfortunately his eyes could not be compromised again and finally he fell asleep. Very sound.

When Aeleya was already in the dream world. Suddenly someone came and sat beside him. The black-robed, hat-toting man threw his body at the seat beside Aeleya quite roughly. The shock alone made Aleeya wake up and was a little shocked by the friction from the next direction. Aleeya opened her eyes and found that there was already a figure of a man beside her. Spontaneous alone Aleeya instantly shifted in the opposite direction from the figure of the man. Aleeya looked so shocked as she uttered Istigfar.

"Obsolutely donk, so be surprised. I saw a ghost!" The foreign man said when he found the shocked Aeleya. Aleeya fixed her sitting position. He began to feel uncomfortable. How could he sit in a chair with a man and the unfortunate thing is that he was at the window that made him feel trapped. Aeleya regretted her being unable to read the situation. He should not be sitting near the window. Why did he not think about this.  Then Aeleya stood up, looked around and wished there were empty seats but it was a pity that there were none. All seats are fully filled by passengers.

Aeleya kept her distance. But the position that has been confined inside makes it difficult to shift again. The man sat as he pleased. He shifted more towards Aeleya and even raised his legs on the chair with an automatic intercalated position on Aleeya's knee. Aleeya glared at him, but the man ignored her.

"Sorry, I could sit on the outside. And you're near the window." Said Aleeya ventured to Speak to the man she considered to be disrespectful.

"Well.. What.. ?? Talk to me again, huh..?" He said that immediately removed the handsfree attached to his ears.

"May move position. I'm outside and you're sitting by the window" repeated Aleeya again who she was sure the man must not have heard Aleeya's words earlier.

"I don't like sitting by the window. Usually it's women who like to sit by the window" he replied indifferently and re-attached handsfree to his ears.

"If so.. Could you please have her leg lowered down. Because it hit me and made my seat even narrower" said Aleeya again.

"What...??? How dare you set me up. I like to put my feet where. After all, it was you who made your seat narrower, since it was fun to shift just slide. What do you think of me? Why would I want to do something? Just looking at your appearance I'm not tasteful. Shit.." Say it harshly. Aleeya stroked her chest hearing the insults coming out from the mouth of that brash man. Aleeya no longer replied to her words. He prefers to keep his distance and turn his eyes towards the sea. Looking at the sea It is better than looking in the opposite direction that makes his heart even more arrogant.

***

The 4 hour journey finally ended. Aeleya could breathe a sigh of relief because her heart and mind had not been okay since. He felt uncomfortable and wanted to get out of the chair and died the arrogant man who was next to him.

The ship finally docked at the island's regional port. Aeleya was ready to stand up and get out of the boat but the stranger did not move out of his seat. He was busy playing games from his phone.

"Please slide me through." Aleeya said in annoyance. The man who was wearing handsfree in his earlobes did not seem to hear Aleeya's words. He seemed to focus on moving his finger on the phone he had in his grasp.

"Hey.. Halle.. Please stand up we have arrived" said Aleeya who is now standing and waving her hands towards the man's face. The man finally realized from his focus and immediately took off his handsfreenya.

"What's wrong?" Ask in a big voice. It's exactly like snarling. Aleeya just stroked her chest.

"Surge.. I want to pass. The ship has arrived." Aeleya replied without looking at him. The man finally stood up and let Aleeya through. As he passed by, Aleeya heard his boy's chattering to her.

"Basar kampungan girl.." Said. But Aeleya did not care about what she said, she immediately rushed out of the ship.

Arriving outside the port, Aleeya immediately contacted Delfi's Tantenya. Because Delfi said earlier that his aunt would pick herself up at the port. A few minutes later, a middle-aged woman approached Aleeya from behind.

"Hi Aleeya..." He said kindly. It turns out that woman was Delfi's aunt. Pure Aunt her name. Aleeya smiled loosely and immediately shook her hands with Pure Aunt.

"Aleeya just called aunty.." Aeleya said kindly.

"Tante was in port 10 minutes ago.. Coincidentally the aunt's son from the city also came today Lya.."

"Oohs.. Aye yes.. "

"Yes.. He just finished college in the city. Next month his graduation so ahead of waiting next month, he went home first." Clearly Pure Aunt. Aeleya is just a mangosteen.

"But where is he.. Aunt call first.." Aeleya just nodded.

"Bright.. There she's.." Appoint Pure Aunt to the back of Lya. Instantly just reflesk Aleeya turned her head back to follow the direction of showing Pure Aunt.

For a moment Aeleya was stunned. His eyes seemed to be widened to see the figure appointed by Pure Aunt. A man in a black jacket with firm steps walked up to them. A foreign man who sucks and who says he's a cramp. Is it true that man is meant by his son's pure aunt?

"Oh God.." Aleeya sizzled softly while covering her mouth with both hands. Aleeya turned her body. The man was now right next to Pure Aunt and seconds later shook hands with Pure Aunt. Aleeya just stayed there. This time not only did he have one ship with the man. But he's gonna be one house with that stingy guy. Aleeya could only have a lot of privilege in her heart.
