Ariana For Rangga

Thirty-First Episode

After two days Arin did not return home, he even turned off his phone and chose to stay a few days in the studio while calming down.

His college also began to fall apart, because later Ariana more often truant.

He refused to meet anyone, including his friends and grandparents who came looking for him.

"Bak Arin, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interfere. I know Arin's problem may be huge. But Mbak Arin must remain enthusiastic, there are still many people who care about the same mbak Arin. The proof, grandparents are also friends mbak Arin since last night looking for mbak Arin here. To be honest, I also feel bad constantly lying to say that Arin's mom isn't here."

Said Dadang, Hitz FM studio security guard that afternoon while bringing food that Arin ordered through delivery services.

"I'm not ready to meet anyone Dang. I just need to calm down for a while. After this I'll be fine."

Reply Ariana.

"Once again sorry, Arin, I really don't mean to interfere. But if Arin needs a friend to tell a story, Arin can tell me the same story. Well, maybe I can help Arin find a solution.."

Ariana smiled as she looked at Dadang.

"I'm fine with Dang, and I can solve my own problems."

Reply Ariana.

"Eh, Gilang hasn't come yet?"

Ariana tried to divert the conversation.

"Not yet, any minute."

Answer Dadang.

"Oh.. Yaudah, here's lunch with Dang. I ordered more on purpose."

"No need to mbak, I bring lunch from home because every day mom cook for me. Be red when not eaten."

Decline Dadang.

Ariana remained silent.

Mother's cuisine, all her life she never even felt what her mother's cooking tasted like. Back when their family was still fine, the cooking tasks were done by the housekeeper. Sometimes when their housekeeper is on leave, it is his father who cooks for them. All this time she knew her mother was always ordering food outside.

Although sometimes her mother lied and said it was her cooking, but Ariana knew exactly her mother could not cook.

"Bak, how dumb?"

Ask Dadang.

"Oh, no. It's nothing Dang."

Ariana answered after Dadang called her.

"You will bring this to your mother. Greetings to him."

Ariana handed him a box of chocolate cake that she also ordered.

"Alhamdulillah. Thanks mbak.. Yaudah, that's why I went back to the post."

Then Dadang left Ariana in the room.

"Sometimes very lucky, even at this age she still feels her mother's cooking. Definitely Dadang's mother is a very loving and caring mother figure for her children."

Ariana muttered with a sad look.

"Content.. Wagging me yes.."

Gilang who just arrived shocked Ariana.

"Ngaaco.. I'd daydream again, if only I had the chance to meet and walk with Lee Min Ho.."

Ariana said with her face.

Gilang put the back of his hand on Ariana's forehead while thinking.

"Well, this is like a sign that people are starting to get this nervous disorder.."

He muttered with a soft tone.

"Damn it.."

Bumpat Ariana while hitting the seat cushion next to Gilang who actually laughed sumringah.

"Rin, it's downstairs someone's looking for you."

Silang.

"Who?"

Ask Ariana.

"Too from appearance anyway, like gentlemen. Don't know who."

Reply Gilang while shrugging his shoulders.

"Mrs?"

Ariana frowned.

Inner Ariana.

"It's not your dad?"

Ask Gilang.

"Of course."

Answer Ariana flat.

"Rin, you know if there's a dong story problem. Don't hold your own. At least if you tell me the burden of your mind will be slightly reduced."

Gilang Advice.

"The fathers you said just now, are they straight-bodied, white and wearing glasses?"

Ariana knew her father couldn't find her, he was just switching the conversation.

"Yes, he's sturdy. His skin is white and he wears glasses. And if I'm not mistaken, at the temple of his left eye there's a mole."

Reply Gilang while nodding.

Fathering.. So it's true that Dad came looking for me? But, for what? Doesn't he hate me so much? He should be happy if I leave. Why is he looking for me? Or does he still want to vent his anger at me?

Inner Ariana.

"Rin, who the hell is that? Your father, huh?"

Ask Gilang.

Ariana was silent. He hesitates to say it was his father.

"What did he say?"

"She's just asking if you're here or not. Yeah, I said nothing. Then he also asked places or people you might go to, I said do not know. He seems to be very worried about you."

Daddy's? Worried me? Huh, Gilang.. If you knew what my father really was, how much he hated me. He can't pretend to worry about me. Wh-wh-what for? There is no benefit to him.

Inner Ariana.

"Rin, I don't know what kind of problem you're having. But whatever it is, running is not the solution.

The Arin I know is not an easy person to give up, let alone run away from problems. Look, you have the ability to deal with your problems and you have to be sure of that. Go home, pity your grandparents from yesterday looking for you. Even your friends. I'm sure your mom and dad must be worried about you, too."

Ariana.

How can I face it? How can I face father's hatred, and mother's indifference?

I know, only my grandparents really care and worry about me. Even if I didn't exist, mom and dad wouldn't lose.

Inner Ariana.

"Rin, dong's story.. I've seen you so often. All this time I've always told you about all the problems and even the disgrace of my family, because I trust you, because you are my friend. At least give me the same confidence. Rin's.. As a friend, I want to help you too."

Persuade Gilang.

"I'm fine."

Ariana replied, and for the umpteenth time with a fake smile.

------------

"Malik, how.. Did you find Arin?"

Mr. Malik who just got off his car was immediately greeted by Grandma Arin in his yard.

Mr. Malik stepped up with a gontai. His face looks wrinkled.

"Malik, how.. Any word from Arin..?"

Ask Grandpa Arin.

The three parents looked very worried.

Two days Ariana disappeared without news, even her phone can not be contacted. I don't know where the girl is now.

Even Mr. Malik has contacted his wife and eldest son to ask where Arin is, but no one knows where he is.

"It's all your fault Malik! Look, what you did to your daughter. Now he's out of the house and we don't know where he is."

Grandpa Arin grumbled with annoyance, while his grandmother could only cry.

"I know dad."

Said Arin's father weakly.

"Yes Allah.. Where's my grandson now.. Protect him wherever He is, O God.."

Granny Arin muttered.

"I'll make a report to the police. It's been two days since Arin left, should've been able to make a report."

Malik said as he passed to his car.
