"Enghm .... Peed kebelet" muttered Aish who was awake from her sleep.
Aish stretched her muscles, then yawned before completely opening her eyes.
As he opened his eyes, a beam of light rays entered both of his neutrals. Aish does not like to turn off the lights while sleeping.
He tried to sit down, then observed the surroundings.
"It's still three o'clock at night?" he murmured as he looked at the wall clock still turning to the right.
Looking towards the window covered in blue curtains.
Very large windows, the curtains are also very good. Bright sea blue color that dangles to almost hit the floor.
"Loh, where am I? Richard felt like I was coming home. Did I get brought to the hotel?" with eyes still scanning the entire room, he muttered alone.
It's not unusual for Aish to wake up this time. Usually, when in no circumstances comes the moon. He will perform tahajud prayers, and the habit is carried away even though he is being prevented from praying.
His body seemed to give an alarm to wake up at this time, one third of the night. The time when all prayer is heard by God.
Prayers are heard, though not answered. Because what we want is not necessarily what God thinks is best for us.
So, just pray. God will give us the best.
Back to this large room, the room was almost twice the size of Aish's room . There was a door by the window, it looked like it was heading to the bathroom.
"Oh, that's the wheelchair" Aish muttered as she tried to reach for the wheelchair.
He's a little troubled, the bed's too soft. Until when he tried to reach the edge of the mattress, the bounce of his mattress made him return to his original place.
"Duh, it's really hard" now Aish trying to pull his body by holding on to the bed. Succeeds.
Using one leg, he tried to stand up and tread very carefully to be able to sit on a wheelchair that was not far from the bed.
"My legs are not so sick this one, stay digibs doang anyway it seems. Well, where's the bathroom?" Aish muttered as she pushed her wheelchair towards the door seen near the window.
Aish pulled the door handle, a little peek at the room that had just opened.
"Uwah, the bathroom is huge. Where is there no tub of water, how do you want to pee try?" Aish was still grumbling as he could not find the water tub.
"Where's the dipper? Geez, really" chatter is still heard, impromptu events in the morning should be a little longer because you still have to try to understand how the bathroom works without a tub of water like this.
"Oh, that's the closet. It's okay to use a sitting closet, the legs hurt because" said Aish who is still trying to complete the morning ritual.
A long time later, the girl finally managed to get out of the bathroom.
"Well, relieved. Fresh again, already washing his face, brushing his teeth.." by observing the entire room, he was still grumbling.
She found a new toothbrush, so she cleaned herself.
When breaking the large curtains, the view that is visible from the window is the gazebo near the pool.
"You know this place, but when?" Aish tried to remember even though she didn't remember.
He closed the curtain again, "How about I look out, anyways Richard take me where the hell?".
When opening the room door wide, a silent atmosphere welcomed. The dim light of the room in the morning blind like this can still see clearly the entire room in this large house.
"Uwah, that's really cool. Definitely, Richard would have taken me to a hotel. But where are the kids, cook yes I was left in the hotel alone anyway?" he murmured while looking downstairs.
There were two stairs, but both of them were heading towards the same place on the second floor. And the room he occupied was in the middle, next to him were two rooms. I don't know who's in it, Aish doesn't know.
The sound of wheelchair friction with the floor sounded quite loud when quiet like this.
"Where is Rickard?" his murmured who wanted to re-enter the room he had just occupied.
"Miss, why come out alone?" a voice shocked Aish.
"Oh Allah, I am shocked" he said, wiping his chest.
It feels like a thief just got caught stealing.
"Mbak, who?" ask Aish.
"I am Widya, non. Richard told me to help non Aish" Widya, Richard's art at home, said.
"So, Richard's here too?" ask Aish.
"It's non, it's his home" Widya replied.
"Oh, I think it's a hotel" commented Aish. Widya just smiled.
When Aish came to this house, he didn't have time to look at the contents. His relationship with Richard was just a friend. How dare he act as his own.
"Miss what? Let me help you, or is Miss hungry?" ask Widya who still sees Aish daydreaming.
"Eh, I don't think so. Don't call me miss dong mbak. It's kind of like that, just call Aish yes" Aish was uncomfortable when she heard people calling her miss.
"Don't dong, non. Later Richard was angry with me" rich Widya refused Aish's request.
"There's no Richard anymore. It was strange to be called that, hehehe" Aish scratched his non-itchy nape.
"Who did I say?" richard asked startling the two talking girls, Aish and Widya.
"Astaghfirullah, I'm surprised Richard. Can hang me if this early already startled" Aish grumbled.
"Why is this early in the morning? Why don't you sleep in the room, anyway?" asked Richard who was crouching before Aish.
"Gue woke up earlier, constantly confused. Because I didn't bring it to my own home. I was trying to escape earlier. I thought I was kidnapped again" Aish said, Richard just smiled.
Widya herself also smiled and shook her head. "Anyone who doesn't like to live in a luxury home? What else has kidnapped Richard?" batin Widya feels funny with Aish's behavior.
"Lebay, you eat a lot, lose the kidnapper" Richard said, Aish eats a lot. No food if no rice has entered the stomach.
Aish squinted his eyes, "So, you lose every time I eat?" aish asked pretending to be angry.
"No dong, I love you the same" said Richard while taking Aish's hand that had been on the handle of his wheelchair.
"The heart is melting" Aish said, mimicking videos of young people today.
He did not like the sudden serious atmosphere.
"Why did you want to do something? Why wake up too?" aish asked, back he put his hand on the chair.
"I didn't do anything, I was just noisy, so I woke up" Richard said as he got up and pushed Aish's wheelchair back into his room.
Widya is still tailing, afraid if it is still needed.
"Sir, take me a drink yes, water" he said, Richard actually gave him the order.
"Yes, den" Widya replied, she immediately exited the room.
" Sleep again, yes" Richard said.
"Yes, Ih" Aish replied, he had tried to stand up, but Richard directly carried him and lowered Aish in bed.
"Thank you, yes" said Aish smilingly.
"I'll wake up at breakfast, yeah" said Richard, sitting on the bed.
"Oh yeah, you're going to school?" ask Aish. He thought what he would do at home, when the house was still in school?
"I'm going to go to school, too, but my school uniform is at home" Aish said.
No, it's true Richard's assumption that Aish must be insistent on going to school.
"Later I told Yopi here to bring your uniform, and send you to school" Richard said.
"really right? Thanks to Richard. I don't know how to repay your kindness anymore" Aish said.
"With you always beside me, it is more than enough" said Richard, even heard by Widya who entered with water that Richard asked.
"It's den, drink it" said Widya who handed him a glass of water from the tray.
Richard took it, sipping slowly while his gaze could not be separated from Aish's face that had blushed in shame.
"If you drink don't moan, then you know the taste" said Aish.
"Uhuk... uhuk" Richard completely choked.
"No, that's why drinking it carefully" Aish said, patting Richard on the back.
The romantic atmosphere that Richard hoped for by continuing to look at Aish while drinking did not occur because he was choking.
"Eat him, don't like bad doain dong" Richard said after feeling better.
"Kok so me anyway? Kan lo yourself who is not careful if you drink, certainly also do not read bismillah" said, Aish wrong talking.
"That's it, there you go. I sleep, want to sleep again" said Aish who tried to cover his body, but difficulty because his legs could not move.
Richard helped her, though still a little irritated. It was early morning arguing.
"Thank you" said Aish, who was sleeping on Richard's back.
"Bik, you take care of these people's children huh. Sometimes he likes to suddenly say something about it" Richard said.
Widya just nodded, not daring to smile, let alone laugh. Because what he heard was that Richard was angry. But as far as he could see, even these two people in front of him looked funny.
Hearing Richard's words, Aish turned his head and gave him a sharp look.
"Lo think I'm a ghost?" asked Aish who was ignored by Richard who had stepped towards the exit.
Aish turned her head after Richard left a while ago, but she still found Widya standing at the spot.
"Lho, why is Wid still here?" ask Aish.
"I was told to take care, non" Widya said.
"Geez, very obedient" said Aish's heart.
"It doesn't have to be here either, so I can't sleep. You can go to your own room, I'm not going anywhere. My legs hurt" Aish said.
"But if Richard's angry?" ask Widya.
"No way, if he's angry with Widya, let me be angry with him, yes. Ma'am can go back to my own room, I want to sleep again mbak" said Aish.
"Well, non" Widya finally wants to go back to her room.
Aish can't sleep anymore. To pass the time until it was really morning, he would just study. Repeating the lessons he left behind when he didn't come in two days ago.
When he opened his laptop, it turned out that there was a house assignment that had to be handed over tomorrow. Chemical tasks, a pretty draining lesson for the brain.
But he's trying to do well, but there are still some things that require a lot of energy to think.
Aish jump over that thing to do later. After all the other questions have been answered.
For a long time he studied, until the sound of someone entering his room.
"Who else is it?" asked Richard who was neat in his school uniform.
Aish looked at the wall clock, it was half six.
"Jain the task, but it's done anyway" said Aish.
"Breakfast first yuk, already awaited at the table to eat. Rarely do my parents have breakfast together" Richard says.
"Gue's ashamed, Richard. I had breakfast in the cafeteria just like Yopi later" said Aish trying to refuse.
There was a knock on the door, Yopi came in with Aish's school uniform. With Widya who will help Aish get ready for school.
"The uniform lo. Richard said you wanted to come in today" Yopi said.
"No, there's Yopi too. We had breakfast downstairs. I wait" said Richard who walked out of Aish's room, not forgetting to invite Yopi to sit at the dinner table.
"I help get ready, non" Widya said.
Aish nodded, she and Widya together went inside the bathroom.
At six and ten minutes, Aish was tidy and ready to eat breakfast. He stopped on the stairs. Confused, how to go down the stairs with his wheelchair.
"Gue helpin" Richard said slightly running as he saw Aish was ready.
"How?" ask Aish.
Richard immediately held Aish like he had last night, and had Widya push the wheelchair down.
Afterwards, Richard sat Aish in his chair.
"Gue heavy Richard, I'll go home to my own house. Let's not bother my cradle" Aish said as Richard pushed him towards the dinner table.
"Richard, I want to go home by myself. Yeah, can ya?" whining Aish like a child while shaking Richard's arm.
"Why don't you feel at home here?" Aish heard a man's voice from behind her.
He focused too much on Richard, so he didn't realize he was at the dinner table.
Aish smiled stiffly, only this time did he clearly see the appearance of Richard's parents, especially papa Richard.
As he recalled, Aish had seen Richard's mother first when he first came to this house. But her appearance was very different because now Richard's mother also wears a formal suit. Makes her look more elegant and smart.
Back Aish felt inferior, really he was nothing compared to the Hutama family. Owner of the largest palm oil processing company.
With a trademark that has gone international.
Aish had time to search on google about their family. And Aish increasingly found that he was nothing if he still insisted on wanting to be with Richard.
"Why bengong, Sya" Yopi said as he put the bread into his mouth.
"Eh, um, aunt. Um, morning" greeted Aish awkwardly.
Richard's parents gave him a very serious look this early. It felt more horror than when he fell into the abyss of that time.
Aish's smile looked very forced.
