AMEERA'S LOVE STORY

PART 13'S

I opened my eyes when I realized someone was knocking on the door. I sat down for a moment before heading to the door. I saw Mom there, carrying a tray of food and drinks.

“Mother?” sapaku, “why do you bother bringing food to the room. I can take it myself bu.” I grabbed the tray from my mother's hand and immediately placed it on the bed.

“Mom is worried because you have not left the room, even though the breakfast hour has passed, I think you are still sick, so I bring your breakfast to the room. Are you better, baby?” Mom put the back of her hand on my forehead.

“I'm fine ma'am, thank you. Oh yes Brother Heru is awake?” my many.

“Heru has left for work dear,” He replied.

I was surprised to hear Mom's answer. The clock in the room turned out to be 10 in the morning. I'm ashamed of myself. As a guest, besides being troublesome, I even woke up late. After this I must have been fired as a son-in-law. Uh, what the hell am I thinking, who's the son-in-law.

I can only bite my lower lip because I feel bad for all the kindness of Heru's mother, “sorry well mom, I woke up bad luck.”

“So dear papa, already there go to take a shower, after that spend your breakfast,” his word. “later I get a change of clothes in Andini's room, you just take a shower, you take a bath, later let me keep it on the bed.”

“Ba-good ...”

After the death of Mom, I again cursed myself, why could I wake up late at someone else's house. I feel ashamed of Mom, and Heru of course. And yes, my plan to borrow Heru's phone failed already. I couldn't even meet Heru this morning. And what am I gonna do here all day? Did I just go home? But how?

I ended the show on self-cursing. I had to start making peace with myself. After all this family's assessment of me, I shouldn't care right? Who am I really? It's good that Mother and Heru could know how I really am from an early age.

I was lazy to go to the bathroom in this guest room. I am grateful for one thing when I am here, which is that I do not need to draw water first when going to take a shower. In addition, I also do not have to rush because there will be no one waiting in line like in my boarding house.

Speaking of boarding, I thought back to Nita. I haven't even been able to reach him. I was afraid Nita would report my loss to the police, because she thought I was missing.

After the shower I immediately put on the clothes that Mom prepared for me. This Andini shirt is quite comfortable for me to wear, because our body size is not much different. It's just that Andini is taller than me.

After finishing my breakfast, I brought the tray with the empty plate and glass on it to the kitchen. I saw Mom in the living room watching television. Being too focused, I didn't notice my presence there. I went to the kitchen and kept my old dirty dishes and glasses and washed them.

After I finished my business in the kitchen, I quickly returned. My goal is to get to Mom. I faintly heard the song from the television that my mother was watching, “ku menagiiisssss .. imagine .. how cruel you are to me ....” apparently mom is watching the favorite FTV series of almost all mothers in the country. I smile thinking about that.

“Eh Ameera, it's been a long time dear? Sorry I was so focused on watching television that I didn't realize you were standing there.” My mother only realized my existence when the movie was in commercials, but I was standing nearby a few minutes ago. “Sini sit.” Mom patted the sofa next to her, and I sat my body where Mom had just shown me.

Mom told me the story of the series she watched without me asking. Mom sometimes looks upset when telling how a husband who can cheat on his wife when the wife is pregnant with their child. I'm not even surprised to hear it, because almost all of the tv series stories do tell that.

“Bu, can I borrow your phone?” tanyaku doubt, “I want to contact a friend boarding, since yesterday I have not updated him, surely he is very worried.”

As planned last night, I'd like to contact Nita via her social media account. Although it will not be read immediately, at least when returning from work later, Nita will probably open her phone, and she will definitely receive a message notification from me. I was worried that Nita would actually report me to the police station because she thought I was missing.

Mom reached into her pants pocket, and handed her phone to me. I hesitantly received the phone. I just looked at him without doing anything.

Looking at me who was just looking at her phone, Mom asked, “why even daydream? You don't worry, pulse mom a lot kok.”

I just smiled at him while handing back the phone in my hand, “sorry ma'am not so, it turns out I do not remember my friend's mobile number.”

Mom took back her phone and put it back in her pants pocket, then resumed her spectacle which had been delayed due to commercial advertising. I looked at my feet in disappointment. I was hoping to contact Nita using my mother's phone, but it turns out that my mother's phone doesn't support it. Mother's phone turned out to be the type of phone that can only text and call.

I spread my eyes around. Heru's room was neat enough for a man's room size. Maybe it's mom who always takes care of this place. Then my attention was turned to a photo on the nightstand, beside Heru's bed. A picture of Heru, Mother, Andini, and a man I believe to be Heru's father.

I circulated again the view of combing the entire room Heru. There is a bookcase with lots of books in it. I read one book at random, it turns out to be a book about marketing strategies. I kept the book again because it was less interesting to me. Then my attention was turned to one book with the heading ‘How to Easily Read Mind’. I finally decided to read the book.

I thought for a moment where I would read the book. There's only Heru's desk there. I couldn't sit there because there were so many files that I thought were important. And finally I decided to read the book on Heru's bed while lying down. Just a few pages I read, I'm starting to feel sleepy. Unknowingly, I fell asleep while still holding a book.

I blinked my eyes and realized that someone was rubbing my cheek gently. As soon as I opened my eyes I was surprised that there was a Heru right in front of my face. Our distance is only a few cent.

I reflexively woke up and went straight down from Heru's bed. Heru looked at me with his ignorant smile, “wah .. wah .. wah .. apparently you are impatient to sleep here huh?”

Hearing Heru's words, I reflexively wanted to pinch her stomach, but Heru swiftly caught my hand. “Two times is enough, not again. Looks like you really like pinching my stomach well.”

I smiled ashamedly at the words of Hru. I was about to pull my hand back, but Heru even tightened his grip. Then he landed a kiss on the back of my hand. I blushed even more, and pulled my hand from his grasp.

“Kak Heru why this hour has come home?” ask pleasantries.

“I miss you, so I went home for lunch with you,” she replied, “and I'm glad you miss me too.”

“Who said?” elakku took his eyes off her.

“You do not need to avoid darling, the proof is that you fell asleep in my room all.” Heru smiled with a grin after saying his last sentence.

“I'm just bored. I was going to the balcony, I suddenly wanted to come here. Continue to fall asleep again read the book,”.

Heru laughed at my explanation. It looks like I might be looking for an excuse. I am speaking the truth.

“Kak, I want to go home,” I said in the middle of his laugh.

“Why? you don't feel at home here?” tanyakanya.

“It's not so sister, I just don't feel good continuing to stay here. I'm afraid to trouble you, especially Mother.”

“Alright, later I anterin you after I go home to work ya.”

“Can't now just brother?”

“Can't be darling, now I have to get back to the office immediately. I just went home for lunch with you.”

“Oh so yes ...”

“Udah do not be sad that, meningan now we eat down, Mother must have been waiting for us. I bought a honey roasted chicken. You must like.”

Hearing the name of my spirit food was back on fire. I quickly shook my head. While Heru just smiled while ruffling my hair. We walked to the dining table on the first floor.
