At the Crossroads of Love

88. Surprise Train

After a week Ratih actually came to visit Ara. In the mind Ara Ratih will come by public transport plane or train and Ara is already preparing for pick-up.

''So why Seh Ra? from earlier I didn't focus that.'' Pia was astonished to see Ara who seemed to be feeling unsettled as usual.

''Looks huh?''

''Hemm.''

Ara gave her smile. ''Train, my friend said today will come but he did not tell me what to go up. Ara was so confused as to pick up where.''

''Friends? who calls that often? kok tumben is not a school is not on holiday. She's twelve grade too right?''

''Trained to enter UI through the report line, he came here to confirm all you want to look at Ara.'' Ara explained the intention of Ratih's arrival to Jakarta.

''Great for me, Ra. I also want to enter UI.Lo itself go where?''

''Not knowing.'' Ara raised her shoulders.'' Ara used to only want to be the same papa, studying at a campus near home. Let me meet every day and take care of papa. But now papa is no more. Ara was confused about where to go, but said Mas Gatra Ara had to continue the lecture as high as possible.''

''Patience, Ra. Pray that your father will be placed in the paradise of Allah, but actually Om lo. Prove that you are strong and can be a successful person, make your papa proud.'' Pia took the bag and stood up. ''Come home yuk! I don't have to slow down, I deliver. Friday Om you don't pick up, right?''

''Know aja.''

Arapun followed Pia's steps. Every now and then there are each other's nagging and chirping that without them knowing there is a pair of eyes that pay attention with an envious look.

''Ra, would-be brother-in-law you?'' point at Pia with her chin.

''There's nothing!'' Yes, Mas Gatra wants Ara's polygamy.

''Obsolutely his face.'' Pia was still flirting.

''Eat him don't start.'' sewot Ara.

''Sorry.''

Arriving at the parking lot Ara was surprised by seeing Ratih who happened to stand in front of the car parked next to Pia's car.

''CRUST!'' Ara called out Ratih's name by shouting loudly. Ratih who was originally just a whimper also rushed to hug Ara, a friend who had left him for three months.

''Kangen.''

''Ara too.'' their old hug took off hugs again without caring around. Suddenly a man emerges from the car behind Ratih and Ara.

''Still not long, the drama is half twelve nih. jum'atan WOI.''

''Reg!'' Ara was confused as to why there was Rega here as well. It's impossible for Ratih to come with Rega.

''Trained?'' Ara looked at Ratih for an explanation.

''Long story. Later don't tell me. Now drive to the nearest mosque.''

Pia who had been silent from earlier saw the interaction of Ara and her friend coming towards Ara.

''Ra.'' call Pia

''Uh yes, Ratih, Rega meet Ara's friend, Pia's full name is Safea Miranti.'' Ara introduces Pia to Ratih and Rega. The three of them shook hands.

''Looks like Pia's face is foreign huh? as you often see, but where?'' Practice muttering yourself.

''Boleh. But what's the car?'' Ara.

''Use your friend's car if you can, my car ntar someone who took.'' Pia solution.

''Could also, let's hunt.'' invite Rega.

********

Ara Ratih and Pia were already in the caffe. Ara forced Ratih to tell a story to come to Jakarta with Rega.

"Only three months did Ara leave you so many Ara miss the news. You who are like Tom and Jerry when Ara lives are now lovers." said Ara after Ratih told me why he could go to Jakarta with Rega.

"Ralat yes, not a real lover huh. This is because Mother's best friend from Mama Rega and they will often see the four of us with her mother because Naina's fiancee Revano must have been dating Rega with me. Since Naina and Revano are engaged and you are married to Mas Gatra, her mother Regapun betrothed us both. Suwer did not kewer-kewer I have denied to Mom that I only metemenan same Rega still do not believe. Rega too, willing to obey his mother was betrothed. You know for yourself Ra, how difficult Mother gave permission for us to camp into the Songo Building first. So is the time I asked to go to college here.''

''Allowed.'' between Ara

''Boro-boro Ra. Until I seduce, if I get accepted because of the report and will get a scholarship, until the hunger strike is also not allowed.'' sulkan Ratih

''How come you can come here now?''

''I don't know either. Rega came with his mother, I don't know what they were talking about suddenly I came here from Rega.''

''How come you've not loved Rega?'' ara's intention teased Ratih.

''You yourself how love has not been the same Mas Gatra.'' check back Ratih.

''Genk, wait for something I don't understand here. Ra! Bang Gatra who are you? and married?'' a moment of silence struck.

''Ra, your friend doesn't know yet?'' whisper a train to Ara answered with a headband. ''Let me tell you, may?'' Ara nodded

Ratih scooped the air a lot and threw, looking at Pua deep.

''Please listen first what I will tell you just listen not to be interrupted. Did you see the ring that was coiling on Ara's finger?'' Pia nodded because he was forbidden to speak. ''This is indeed a wedding ring.'' said Ratih by showing Ara's ring finger framed ring.

''Ara is the wife of Gatra Rahendra Sukma. They were legally married either religiously or by country. Because it was my father who took care of the wedding files of Ara and Mas Gatra.''

''Why didn't you be honest with me from the beginning Ra? I'm your friend Ra.'' forced Pia to interrupt as a friend so that Ara can trust him.

''Sorry Pia.'' said Ara

''Yes, when Ara has to be honest with everyone, Ara is still a BUK school, if she knows if she is married, she is still allowed to go to school.'' Ratih cynical.

Rati continued her story. From his papa who was hit by a bomb blast, Ara's marriage to a new person he knows has not been up to a day. Until Papa Ara died.

''Sorry Ra, I don't know how easy your life is. Honestly as long as I know you there is envy to elo. For me, your life is perfect. Especially if elo again phone calls with your friends, your life is surrounded by people who really love and tulu to elo.

''Wong ki sawang. Some say the neighboring grass is greener, it is true because the imitation of plastic neighboring grass so it will not dry.

''But I saw Bang Gatra was very affectionate and attentive to Ara. Actually I had curia 'cook seh this Om and nephew' Especially when first Ara call Bang Gatra Mas instead of Om. It turns out Ra, elo bini guy.

''Don't tell anyone that Pia used to be, Ara still wants to finish Ara's school.'' Please Ara

''Surely Ra I will keep my mouth shut, no one will know the secret lo from my mouth.'' said Pia by demonstrating the movement of his hands locking his mouth.
