Ariana For Rangga

Episode Twelve

The weather in the city of Siantar that morning was unfriendly, heavy rain and strong winds made many people seem reluctant to start today.

But not with Ariana Dahlia, the girl still looks eager to go to campus despite having to penetrate the rain.

It had been two days since he had returned to this city, and of course just after his return he had gotten a constant scolding from his father.

I don't know, he also no longer remembers whether since when his father became an angry man.

And what made her father angry the most was, if he knew Arin was going to see his mother. I don't know what grudges his father's heart held against his mother.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Arin's leaving yeah.."

"Be careful Arin, don't speed. Slippery streets."

Grandfather reminded.

"Each General.. Assalamualaikum."

Arin replied while giving her two thumbs.

"Getishalight."

Grandpa and grandma.

After saying goodbye to his grandparents, Arin immediately left for college on his motorcycle. It was her first morning back on campus after skipping out for a few days since returning to Jakarta.

"Finally, our queen's kanjeng is back after a long disappearance from civilization.. Did you finish the season?"

Bimo was the first to greet Arin that morning.

"Hehh Upik purple, do you think I'm a creature to disappear from all civilizations?"

Arin Protest.

"Astral beings anyway, I guess."

Replied Bimo while grinning.

"Damn it.. Uh, which other one?"

Tanya Arin diverts Bimo's crisp joke.

"no one has come yet, anyways this is still what time. You're the one who's craft comes at this hour."

Reply Bimo with a special Siantarnya accent.

"Anything I do crafts, it's eight in the morning."

Ariana's Reply.

"Didn't you see the information in the group chat? Today Mr. Rojak's schedule is delayed by ten."

"Ohh.."

Arin patted her forehead.

"So you yourself why did you come so early?"

Ask Arin.

Bimo smiles with a red face.

"Let's see the future angel of the world and my paradise.."

Answer Bimo in a lebay style.

"Helehh.. Yaudah is a gebet gih."

Arin.

"The problem is, she doesn't want to date."

Answer Bimo sewot.

"So he doesn't want to date yaudah you're applying to, meet his guardian and invite him to marry. Wait especially.."

Chirping Arin while laughing sumringah.

"Alamak, horrified you ya wak. I've discussed about applying lamar, lest you go back who has been proposed with that brother."

Said Bimo with a probing look.

"I'm just giving advice, you're saying he doesn't want to date."

Reply Arin while shrugging his shoulders.

"The problem is if I apply and I marry now, what kind of child would I want to feed?

Eating the same sandstone? I myself until now live still nebeng parents, presumably want to marry people's children. There I was immediately given cyanide coffee as his father because he could not be responsible for supporting his son."

Grouse Bimo.

"Eating boss work, learning to be a gentleman. Every parent would want his daughter to get the man in charge "

Said Arin while patting Bimo's shoulder.

"Gentleman as Donny and Rin?"

Bimo's question suddenly made Arin misbehave.

"Bim, aren't you a lager? Find breakfast first yuk."

Arin tried to divert the conversation.

"By breakfast in the cafeteria."

"Rin, answer the dong first.."

Persuade Bimo after ordering food to the canteen mother.

"What the hell was that?"

Arin looked confused.

"Donny is a gentleman? I want to know how he approached you.."

Ask Bimo while grinning.

"This is the order.."

Mrs Canteen placed two dishes of fried noodles and two cups of tea on the table right in front of Arin and Bimo.

Not wanting Bimo to ask any further, Arin immediately grabbed his order food and started eating.

"Rin.."

Bimo still demanded an answer.

"If you eat again, don't talk. Pamali's parents said."

Replied Arin who was only focused on the food.

Bimo grabbed his glass, then downed his drink to the toilet.

--------

That afternoon Arin had just returned from campus and was immediately greeted by her grandmother at the door.

"Assalamualaikum granny.."

Say hello to Arin while crucifying his grandmother's hand.

"Waalaikumsalam Arina.. Come quickly in, Donny from earlier was waiting for you."

Arin was silent. He didn't think Donny would come looking for him.

Since meeting Aunt Retno a few days ago Arin deliberately ignored Donny. He did not even reply to the chat or answer the phone from the man. He just needs time, until he's really ready to leave Donny.

But he did not expect that Donny was looking for him.

"Arin, why are you going home by yourself? Why didn't you tell brother first? You know, my brother is very worried about you. You didn't reply to the chat and didn't answer my brother's phone."

Donny looked very worried.

"I'm sorry, Arin hastily went home because there's a presentation assignment."

Arin replied lying.

Donny breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jaudah, it's important now that you know Arin well. But next time, don't repeat like this again."

"Arin enter first yes bang, have not prayed dzuhur."

Arin leaves Donny with his grandparents in the living room after crucifying his grandfather's hand.

"Sorry Arin bang.. Arin's not ready to meet brother."

Arin muttered while leaning on the door of her room.

"Arin, why are you here? There he went all the way to see you, not to play chess with grandpa."

Arin's grandmother had just entered, because it had been more than an hour Arin stayed in his room.

"Ehm, Duty.. Arin again many tasks grandma. Please tell bang Donny Arin again can't be bothered by grandma."

Arin replies while pretending to open the book.

"Arin, it's not nice to be so. Donny is not here every day. Moreover, he came all the way from Jakarta, at least accompany him to talk for a while."

Persuading grandma.

"But Arin's job is very important, Grandma.."

Arin insists.

"Arin, what's going on? Did something happen in Jakarta?"

Ask Grandma with a curious look.

"Nothing, nothing happened."

Arin tried to cover up.

"If nothing happens, why does our attitude change? Usually you're kind to Donny, but why did grandma see today that you were trying to avoid her?"

Grandma's question is very interesting, and it is true grandmother's guess.

Arin deliberately avoids Donny.

"Also if you don't want to accompany Donny to talk, but at least don't avoid. Whatever problems you're facing, I hope you can react to them with a cold head."

Arin could only bow within.

What if the problem is complex?

I don't even know how to handle this.

Inner Arin.
