Why Expect Something That Has Lost?



A tall, white, narrow-eyed man pointed his index finger at the shutter button, then pressed it down and shot a picture of a middle-aged woman about to break into the supermarket.


"Why do you buy so many snack foods, instead of dieting?" ask Mother.


"Today I want to eat everything!"


Alima and Samy arrive outside the building.


Samy continued walking, while Alima remained silent.


"Why it's still there, let's go in!" samy's words made Alima flinch from her daydream.


"I'm sorry I can't,"


Samy approached Alima. "You can't keep your word, not an hour has changed!"


"It's my choice, please don't force it!" obviously Alima turned her face away.


Samy can't do much. If that's what Alima wants.


He let her go, though it was hard to let go.


Alima rejects Samy's wish because she remembers her promise to the Mother.


***


Flying above the clouds, Alima took a closer look at the white, cotton-like blob hovering in the blue sky.


Not wanting to miss the panorama of beauty, he took his phone in a bag to immortalize.


There is something strange in his bag, it turns out that Samy's compass was carried along.


"Basic forgetful! He must be looking for this compass" complained Alima.


After coming out of the supermarket, the woman invited Alima's mother to stop by the flower shop.


The woman asked one of the employees there to wrap the snack food purchased earlier as a bouquet, she also bought a flower necklace.


"Mom is so confused, of all that we have bought there is none on the shopping list, all this for what?" ask Mom curious.


"If I tell you now, it's not a surprise!"


The sun went down, they went home. Preening wearing the best kebaya by the fashion designer of the beautiful woman's family subscription.


"Mother's beauty is so perfect when wearing kebaya!" said the woman while turning the body of Alima's mother. "We're leaving now, ma'am."


Apparitions of clothes mount in his room, Samy accidentally rummaged through looking for his compass.


"Where else should I look for that compass, is it possible to be left in the hospital?" said Samy twisting. "Did you fall when it happened outside the building at that time?" His hand reached into his pants pocket to pick up his phone.


Samy undoes his intention when he wants to contact his friend at the office to ask about the compass, because he thinks it will be a joke there.


***


Arriving at the Airport, the woman opened her car door, and held the hand of Ms. Alima whose eyes were covered with cloth.


"Okay, we've reached our destination!"


A beautiful woman pulls a suitcase out of the airport door.


His smile was glistening, when he saw the people he loved were in plain sight.


"1, 2, 3, surprise!"


A dry heart is now drenched in heavy rain, as hard as his longing for his beloved daughter.


"Five, Mother's son!" his mother hugged Alima's body tightly. "Say you can't go home?"


The woman looked her eyes glistened because of the feeling of haru watching the meeting of a Mother and Child who had not met for a long time.


Alima rubbed a clear circle on her mother's cheek. "Sorry Alima, I'm panicking!"


"I'm sorry Kiyara is also yes Mom, all this is Alima's plan!"


Alima laughed a little. "Even if I'm wrong, but everyone forgives dong?"


The woman draped flowers on Alima, also giving her a bouquet of snacks she bought.


"Mom and I have bought a bouquet of snacks, a necklace of flowers, an expensive kebaya rental, it's not fair to just say sorry doang," said the woman. "Practice eat yes!"


"Aren't you on a diet anymore?" ask Alima.


"Specifically today I can eat delicious, celebrate the arrival of my best friend!"


They stopped at one of the famous restaurants in Jakarta.


The place is strategic, 5-star classy restaurant with a super luxurious and elegant interior.


The woman looked happy to be able to set foot in the restaurant again.


"Well, do you go to this restaurant often? Because I see it's familiar," asked Alima.


The woman was dumbfounded. "Wow, in addition to his profession as a lawyer, it turns out you are also good at reading someone's expression!"


Alima nodded. "That means you've never spent a penny to eat here? Then tonight I escaped!" alima said with excitement.


"Don't dong, it's not good either time. Next time I invite you to eat as much as you like here, but later if my girlfriend returns to Indonesia!" the woman made Alima sing her lips.


"When do you want to introduce your future husband to Mom?" sahut his mother made Alima swallow her saliva.


"Don't ask Mom, Alima's boyfriend doesn't have one!" alima said with a bent face.


"Everything do not often avoid if there are guys who are deketin, not tasty not so single?" kiyara laughed.


Alima was not too busy thinking about her soul mate's affairs. Because he knew his soul mate had been written before he was born into the world.


Dawn dawned, Samy's head began to feel dizzy as he kept thinking about Alima.


"Meet him at his apartment this time?" said Samy headed to Bia's apartment.


The window curtain of his apartment was closed, dust was visible on the floor.


"The five least like the same thing as a dirty place, is it possible to still sleep?" said Samy on the doorstep of Alima's apartment.


Tok.dok...


Many times Samy knocked on the door of his apartment, but there was no sign of his nose.


He reached into his pants pocket, picked up a cell phone to contact Alima.


"I'm outside your apartment, get out!" insist Samy.


"Sorry who are you? Mom kos isn't it? Eh but from his voice like fathers?" ask Alima casually.


Samy breathed a heavy sigh. "Please don't joke, from earlier I did not pick up your phone and now you want to find a reason what else?"


"Kok getting angry, I asked you nicely too!"


Samy tried to calm down. "This five is me, Samy. I'm here to ask you something important!"


"Oh so from that you called, sorry I don't know," said Alima Lirih.


"Wait, you said you were in front of my apartment, why try?" tanya Alima scrunched her forehead.


Samy stroking chest.


Hearing Alima's words, which almost made her ride apoplexy.


"I'm asking you to come out now!" said Samy.


"You wait until it's mossy I'm not going out, because I'm not there!" obviously Bia made Samy's mouth gap wide.


"What's? Why didn't you tell me from the beginning that you're out of here?" 


Alima narrowed her eyes. "For what? Nothing attracts him to you!"


"Udah yes, I hung up!" alima hung up the phone.


Samy left Alima's apartment.


Inwardly, he cursed himself, for not being able to stop himself from connecting with the women in his past. Why am I looking for that compass? The compass was indeed his gift, but the love between us was gone, so why still expect the compass back?


Kiyara shouted calling Alima's name, while jumping up and down in excitement, continuing to look at her phone screen.


"What the hell is it, you think it's in what forest?" tanya Alima came down from the stairs.


Kiyara showed me a photo of the invitation on her phone. "You see this, my girlfriend's family wants to invite me and my family to the inauguration of her hotel tomorrow in Bandung!" Kiyara lowered her face.


"Why, is there a problem?" ask Alima.


"Mama and Papa went out of town, where could I possibly attend this event?" kiyara bit her lip.


Kiyara gets inspired. "What if you and Mom were with me?" kiyara's words made Bia shake her head, disapproving. "Please want ya, don't you pity me?"


"Kok asem it's his face, before I heard there was laughter here, what's up?" mother Alima suddenly appeared among them.


"Mom agrees tomorrow to accompany Kiyara?" insist Kiyara while pleading.


Alima blinked her eyes next to her.


"If Alima agrees, I'll come!"


"Horay! Thank you, Mother!" shout Kiyara.


Alima followed her mother into the kitchen and asked her why she agreed to Kiyara's invitation.


"Why worry, Kiyara I already think like a mother's own child!"


"So what are you going to tell them about us?" ask Alima curiously.


"What's so hard about being honest, honestly doesn't make us feel contempt, does it?"
