Our travel plans are mature. This holiday will be more effective, we will go to West Sumatra, my parents' ancestral village According to the story of Father, my grandfather used to migrate to Medan. Then married to a Malay girl Deli. I was once invited back home, I was still in SD.
Dad used to work as a tailor, mom was a tailor. Nothing goes down the same as our parents' intelligence.
"We have to hire a driver, Dek, there's no way your brother is driving on" said the husband.
"Whoa, Bang, it's a long journey, looking around the location" I said later.
"What location, Deck?"
"Adek wants to be like Bang's wife, there's his CV,"
"If all Sumatra has been difficult location, Dek, must go to Papua now if you want to find new land."
"Adek does not want to cultivate palm oil but wants to set up a palm oil processing plant into cooking oil," I said steadily.
"Isn't that a bit of capital, Dek? we can all run out of money,"
"Adek did not ask for capital to Brother, Adek will establish cooperation with large financiers."
"Who is the big financier?"
"Bang Parta equals Bang Nyatan,"
"Haha,"
"Cock laughing, Bang?"
"I think I want the Regent's loby,"
"Wake up the school that guy wants to help, Bang, Bang Parta's wife I've asked, he's okay, okay."
"Well, my wife will be the boss of cooking oil, so also later the brother of the driver's work mistress this," said the husband with a smile.
There was a video call from Rara, I was quite surprised too, it's been a long time Rara never contacted. I immediately moved away from my husband, not wanting my husband to see Rara. I don't know why seeing them talk I'm jealous.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Rara's sister?" my broom then after the relationship is connected.
"Waalaikumsalam, Nia, we want to come to this field," answered Rara made me even more surprised.
"Oh, yes, come home, brother," I said.
"Yes, but the hotel we have ordered, we want a vacation to Lake Toba, all of you want to see Bang Pain village," he said again.
"Remain book the hotel to the house, sister," I said in pleasantries.
"Okay, if that's the case, we're up to about four hours away, pick up to the airport huh," Rara said.
Duh, my bases come true. Not because of anything, but I feel Bang Parlin is the same Rara still keeps the taste.
"Who's it from, Dek?" ask husband.
"From Rara, Bang, they want to come to Medan" I replied honestly.
"Well, he came home after decades" said Bang Parlin. His face looks cheerful, I don't like this.
"Yes, Bang, they're up to four hours away, tell us to pick us up to Kuala Namu,"
"Yes, please prepare, let's pick it up" said the husband. Once again I was upset, he looked excited to meet Rara.
We went to Kuala Namu also finally, invited Rara people from Bang Parlin's past. Somehow my feelings, mixed up, between respecting the husband, respecting the guests, jealousy were obvious. But I remember the words of my husband. Just trust each other.
"Bang, we have to think ahead, it is not possible for the palm to continue to bear fruit, later it will be old too, we have to find another business," I said to my husband as we waited for Rara's arrival at the airport.
"Yes, Dek, Abang had anticipated that, our land already exists a new, palm oil is already over a year old."
"Well, when was it, as I remember everywhere we were together, Bang,"
"For a long time, Deck, finished planting that's when Brother came here,"
"Where?"
"Our land, too, is just further out,"
"How about we build Bang Parta's kek palm oil mill?"
"Sister Science does not get there, Dek, anyways in our area there are many palm oil mills, less oil palm,"
"Kok Brother is like that, Bang?"
"How about a punch, Dek?"
"Yes, mantok, do not know how to develop a business, see that Bang Parta, Bang Nyatan."
"I'm starting to feel ungrateful,"
"Adek is grateful lo, Bang, grateful though, but that was, developing a business, so that more people can be helped,"
Rara has come, I was surprised as well because they came complete with family. Her husband also came.
As usual, Rara and Bang Parlin's meeting was always sad, there were always tears, but no hugs, just shouts.
"Looking at Abang, I remember the late Father" Rara said in tears.
"Om, our hair is the same, yes" said Lindung-anak Rara while pointing at the hair of the husband who had started to goble again.
"Yes, Lindung, it's antique hair, only great people have hair like this" Bang Parlin said, holding onto him.
"Om, mom said, my hair will be cut because I want to go to school" Lindung said again.
"It's okay, it's big to make hair gini again," said Bang Parlin.
Failed our vacation, it is impossible to leave guests who come. Rara's husband also asked to be escorted around the city of Medan. Rara went to Lake Toba. We finally had a vacation together. Strange as it was, the ex became a brother.
But I continued to be vigilant, I did not let Bang Parlin and Rara to be alone, I continued to accompany the husband. In the car, I always sat in front. Starting from Almahsun Mosque, Maimun Palace to Merdeka square we came.
The next morning we headed to Lake Toba. Stayed one night, just left for the husband's hometown. Rara wants to see her childhood village the house she grew up in.
Apparently in the village there are still some who know Rara, but people call him the Red.
"Hey you're Red?" greet a woman as soon as we arrive.
"However you left Parlin" said the woman.
Rara I saw it so embarrassed, Bang Parlin looked down, Rara's husband seemed angry. Everything's getting awkward.
"That mango is still there, yes" said Rara while pointing at the mango beside the house.
"Yes, remember you fell the brother of the mango" said Bang Parlin.
"Hahaha, yes, yes, because I wanted mango, Bang Pain was willing to go up, until it fell, his pants were torn," Rara said, laughing.
"Si Nunung used to be tied up in that mango," said Bang Parlin.
"Yes, it's a pity that he's dead,"
"Abang sad Rara, until twenty years Abang pet him, Rara did not come, too,"
Ah, this is not true, this village home is their reunion. Obviously I'm jealous.
"Sister, Rara, let it pass, may it be remembered, but please respect your husband, look at that, he went awry, will be angry he was disinclined, but you are so." I said finally.
"I'm sorry, Nia, we're just sisters, there's nothing to be jealous of, my father also considers Bang Parlin as a child" Rara said.
"Right, but another Bang Parlin, he's long married because of waiting for Rara, obviously I'm jealous, it's always about Rara, whether for what you come here, just open the old wound," I said later. I'm out of control too.
"Dad!" bang Parlin half shouted.
"What, Bang," my challenge.
"Don't you say that, napa?"
"So I have to how, Bang, do I let you guys nostalgic love not to that extent."
"That's not it, Nia," Rara tried to talk.
"How else, Rara, I know all, I know how you feel, appreciate it your husband, how can you praise the husband of someone nearby, of course he's jealous," I'm getting out of control.
"Dec, what the hell is that?"
"Yes, obviously, why don't you just get married?"
"Niaaah!" suddenly my husband's voice was loud, only this time he said my name directly, usually he always called Dek.
I cried and left the house. I'm really upset, jealous. My husband didn't stop me from leaving, I was getting upset, while my son was still at home. But someone followed me, and when I stopped, he stopped too. I walk faster, he walks faster. Whoa, who is he. I finally stopped at a shop. Order a tea bottle and sit down. That guy just kept following me.
"Parlin do ho's disgrace?" said the mother who had a shop.
"Sorry, Mom, I don't understand" I replied.
"Oh, Medan man, forget, you're Parlin's wife huh?" said the mother again.
"Oh, yes, Mom,"
"Si Parlin was here just playing it first,"
"Oh yeah, Mom,"
"Yes, everyone's success is all,"
"Yes, Mom, Oh yeah, Mom, you know Rara?"
"Oh, Red, you know, the doctor's son, because Parlin has no sister, the son of the man is made a brother" said the mother.
"Came to be a brother?"
"Yes, I remember my name, Naduma Sari Siregar," said the mother again.
"Oh, not Bang Parlin's girlfriend just yet,"
"Not, Regar the same Regar where it may be, know you, Dek, if the Batak people have one clan is like a brother."
"So the doctor?"
"The doctor is still the man of his town, who asked Marga the red to be pricked,"
"Why?"
"Where do I know, he wants to be a bad guy maybe, what's the story about you coming here?"
"Nothing, Mom, look around,"
"Who are you?"
"Yes, ma'am" I said as I left. Even if I don't know what a mardandi is, but I just say it, I want to go home quickly. Apologize to your husband, to Rara.
The one who followed then approached, "Quickly the mardandinya, Brother," he said as he followed me.
Oh, it turns out this guy might be Bang Parlin's man.
"Who are you?" much
"I'm a bodyguard from padang back and forth, ready to serve," he said in his honor.
Lah, I'm escorted by the bodyguard.
"Naduma Sari Siregar?" I said when I got home.
"Where do you know, Nia?" ask Rara.
"Jealousy is natural, I always have been, it's a sign of love, but not anymore. I salute their unique relationship, pray for each other, remember each other, love each other" said Rara's husband.
Duh, I'm so embarrassed, I accused him of jealousy. I am the jealous one.
