ARINDAS

Sulking

Ricko POV's

Diving failed! It even ends here.

Women, oh, women! If it is sulking, make the head dizzy. Unwilling to obey, his mouth kept silent. Lips forward five inches. Wry face with sharp look. Not to mention the countless judes.

He said he wanted to rest, so cancel diving. But, in fact, out as well.

Arinda wears a bikini on the beach. Ah, failed already.

Nah! Nah! Ricko your brain please don't get dirty. Get lost, you stupid mind!

Just look at my girl. Very happy cheerful. While I'm here lamenting the fate of the nelangsa. What a pity you are Ricko Bagaskara Narendra.

Dead lice already!

It's true, people say, love sometimes has no logic. The proof, tough stud like me would linger sitting here. Forced, anyway, than my girl to shut up. Just imagine, for hours I've been here without clear certainty. I don't know when this suffering will end.

Oh, Arinda! Quickly put an end to my misery.

Where some soft bone creature saw me continues with occasional winks. They looked like they wanted to swallow me alive. Really makes the fur crouch.

Wanted to wait outside, but the ultimatum was out first. It is forbidden to leave the place before it is finished. Not willing to comply, guaranteed to sulk the second volume will rise. So, it's better to give up.

I am also a victim. Just look, for the second time my back is scarred by the ferocity of those pretty demonic nails. But, my girl just does not want to know and still ask for compensation.

It was my fault, anyway, kissing her crossed the line and forcibly. I just got out of control. Jealousy also heard Arinda wanted to be made a young wife.

Just look at you Dennis! I'll put you in a holding cell. It's corruption. Then, dare to disturb my girl. Goddamn bum!

....

From the salon is open until five in the afternoon, Arinda just finished pampering herself. Massage, stretching, milk bath, nail care, creambath, and all sorts of other beauty affairs.

As a result of a broken hoof yesterday, Arinda kept nagging. He blamed Ricko for the incident. And, as compensation, he asked to do treatment in a beauty salon.

Aji is smart! Continue, Arinda.

The girl chose one of the famous salons in Jakarta. And, Ricko should, obligated, have to wait for him to finish.

“Ricko!” call Arinda.

The girl stepped cheerfully towards Ricko who was sitting on the sofa.

“It's done?”

“Already. I'm getting pretty, aren't I?”

“Yes, very beautiful. Already, yes, we're home. Come!” Ricko pulls Arinda's hand out of the salon. Eventually, the suffering ended. I would no longer set foot in that horrible place. It feels more horror than watching kuntilanak and his country.

“Ricko, but my nails are no longer beautiful. Look, be short-short.” Arinda showed me her nails.

“Better so, Arinda. The long nails yesterday put other people at risk. I don't want to be a victim anymore. It is enough twice,” said Ricko held back furious.

“Indeed I intentionally extended it to it.”

“What do you mean?” ricko asked while putting on his seat belt.

They got into the car and prepared to find a restaurant. Both are starving.

“This is one of my weapons to protect myself from these jerks like you.”

Ricko turned his head without taking off the wheel while staring at Arinda. “Hei! I'm not a jerk.” At least, don't be so honest. I do it also for love. Oh, geez! Just keep talking about it. You should blame yourself too. Why have a deadly charm and pink lips full of enjoyment?!

“You kissed me forcibly and toyed with my love. So, you count jerk men.”

Suddenly the car stopped suddenly. Almost Arinda's head hit the dashboard.

“Ricko! Driving right!”

“Nona, can erratue your words. I'm not playing with your love. If you kissed forcibly yesterday, okay, I admit I was wrong. I'm sorry.”

“Then tell me how you feel about me now?”

“I love you. Satisfied!” I love you too. Lordy! Make this girl patiently wait for me.

“Love, Ricko! The love! Say I love you!”

Holy hooch! I was forced to admit that I had impregnated a girl. The issue of love statements alone is always a fuss. Not enough is my treatment, Arinda, inner Ricko dizzy with the request.

Ricko restarts his car. He did not pay attention to Arinda's request.

“Where do you eat at the restaurant?”

“Tu 'will you switch the conversation.”

“Seafood or pizza?”

“Piza!”

Ricko drove the car to the pizza place. As soon as he arrived, Arinda went straight out with a sour face. Then, slam the car door. Make the man still inside shake his head.

“Start again sulking.”

🌺🌺🌺

Snuggle the second half. Ricko stroked his chest. Holding on patiently in order to smile while seducing the girl in front of him constantly.

“No.”

“You what?”

“Kangen Mom.”

“I'll take tomorrow . Want?”

“Iya. But ...”

“What?”

“Nail motor same as you.”

“OK. But not Brown. Ride my motor.”

Arinda smiled then nodded.

Next day

A funeral? ask Ricko in your heart. Baffled.

Arinda sat down in front of the mother's grave. He just looked at her without talking. Then, start sowing flowers and rose water. Swiping a tombstone that was wet due to the water splash earlier.

Ricko was still in silence. He hugged Arinda's shoulder and rubbed her. The man felt guilty because he had just found out about the death of the future-in-law.

Ricko saw the tombstone. Look at the date of death there. He lowered his head and lifted him back while looking at Arinda.

I'm sorry, if I just found out about your mother's death. You should miss him so much that you are sad. I guess I need to find out more about you. What has happened in the past eleven years since I left? Then, why did you end up in an apartment and living alone? Where's your Papa? Ricko.

“We go home,” take Arinda while getting up.

Ricko held Arinda's hand.

🌺🌺🌺

Here they are now, here they are,

Ancol Beach. Ricko takes Arinda to where he first said love.

“Still remembering this place?”

“Of course.”

“Satisfaction is still the same as before.”

“Yes. Only her male feelings are different.”

“Do not insinuate.”

Arinda put her head on Ricko's shoulder.

“Only the most beautiful memories with you in the past. While others, I always try to forget.”

“Memories with parents as a child until adolescence, want you to forget too?” Come, Arinda! Talk about your family.

“Tiny and teenage years?"

“Iya.”

Getting to know the prostitution scene, the night world, alcohol, pimps, night workers, the street with men is different almost every day, is considered cheap, realistic, and has Papa who has the heart to sell his son also beat up. In fact, my late mother was shot dead and I don't know who did it. So, what's the beautiful part of it all? Nothing, Rick. Arinda.

“You're happy with your family, Rick?”

“Of course.” Why even ask back? Do I need to find my own?

“Rick, I want a family. Have many children. And, I'll make sure all my kids are happy.”

Ricko stroked Arinda's hair. “Sure! When you have children later, it will definitely be a great mother.”

“But, I just want the father of my children to be you. Don't want another.”

Me too, Arinda. Just want you as the wife and mother of my children. Be patient, yes, baby! Ricko.

“Iya. We pray that God will keep us together.”

“But, if it does not materialize. I'll pray for your happiness, Rick. Rich man with good family background, must be a lot of prospective in-laws out there who want to make you a son-in-law. Sure, they're equal to you. Unlike me, women are not clear.”

“Arinda, stop saying so.”

“Now, I only dare to dream if the father of my children is you. I knew it would never come true, right?”

“Arinda, enough! Shut up, do not spoil the atmosphere with words that are not pleasant to hear ear.”

“Rick! When I'm gone don't ever look, yeah. When it comes, it means I've taken off all the weight on my shoulders. I am sincere and want to calm down. So, no more bothering me.”

Ricko hugged Arinda. “Enough! Enough's enough! Don't talk a no-no.” I won't let you go. A single step will never.

Without them both being aware, the camera continues to take pictures. In fact, it had already happened since the departure of the two to the playground.

A mysterious smile was imprinted on the tyrannical face of a bespectacled man with a thin mustache. Professional camera hanging around his neck saved a lot of shots. Of course, the contents are pictures of a pair of lovebirds.

“Big catch! The money will come. I'll be rich.”
