Between Me Memories And Time

Forced

A bright morning, the birds cheerfully chattered, the cold was still piercing the skin, the patient was crowded in the examination room measuring 4 x 6 m where the midwife was built. Because in the mountainous area of patients bu midwives is a lot.

Aruni and Shila were ready in the check room to be the assistant midwife Nuri's maiden name.

A tall woman of 40 years old, her hair short black, deftly examined the patient.

Pregnant women seem to be very comfortable being examined by this Nuri mother. One by one the patients were examined. This midwife in addition to home practice also works at Puskesmas.

"Aruni, today there is immunization at the health center later you follow the mother there," said Bu Nuri to Aruni.

"Good ma'am" replied Aruni

After you have finished cleaning the check room,

"Aruni.ayo departed.after noon", shouted Nuri from the living room, calling Aruni who was still sitting in the living room.

This morning Aruni's feelings were suddenly unpleasant, like a premonition there would be something,

"Shila.., if today there is someone nyari me, say I have returned to Yogya yes.sama Mas I did say it", Aruni's message to Shila

"Okay, ntar I told you, you've gone there"

Aruni went riding his own motorbike following the direction bu Nuri left. Along the way the corn trees whose fruit began to turn yellow filled the rice fields that Aruni passed.

Bu Nuri appears to turn on the riting lights turn to the right. In front is seen a Puskesmas, whose new building, Many mothers and toddlers are waiting in line.

Immunization service was not so long, Aruni was finished, about to go home to Nuri's mother, Aruni riding a motorcycle slowly as if worried about the arrival of Andra.

Aruni gasped in shock, when he reached the front of Nuri's house, Andra had been sitting in front of the house. Aruni was about to continue his path of trying not to stop, but Andra found out and immediately called out to him,

"Aruni." cried Andra.

Instantly Aruni pressed the brake of his motor and stopped, then drove the motor to the yard. Aruni slowly found Andra, and,

"Udah pinter lied to you, your friend said you went back to yogya" Andra told Aruni.

Aruni silently did not answer Andra's words.

"I asked you again, you don't want to be my wife,"

Aruni did not answer.

Suddenly tears came out slowly dripping on the cheeks, as if confused and sad to answer what, what to say he loved others who did not know also how to feel. Aruni couldn't see anyone else being disappointed, he was really confused by the situation.

Andra who saw Aruni cry, started to feel guilty,

"Aruni please answer, I'll leave after you answer, I'm sorry"

"Well I'll go, I won't bother you anymore."

Andra then left, and,

Moments later the living room phone rang, kriiing,...

"Aruni has a phone for you". Shouted Shila

Aruni went to the living room and received a phone call,

"Aruni I'm there again my feelings are not calm,". There was Andra's voice heard and closed the call

Five minutes after the phone rang Andra had been seen in the guest room again,

Andra went straight to Aruni,

"Aruni please, marry me",

Andra put both of her legs in front of Aruni, and shed tears,

"I'm sorry, I'm not gonna stand up before you say I want to be my wife"

Confused to see such a situation,

"There's a man selling his pride in front of me I have to" whispered Aruni inwardly.

"I'm not going home before you say yes" Andra said

Aruni was in a cornered situation, everyone in Nuri's house saw the event, and finally Aruni said:

"Well, I want to be your wife"

Hearing Aruni's remark, Andra immediately stood up, her face starting to look cheerful, cheerful,

"But I have conditions" Aruni continued

"What"

"There can be others and there can be no coercion."

"Well, I went home to Cirebon this afternoon, to tell Mom" Andra replied.

Andra finally came home happy.

Unlike Andra, Aruni actually grew sad.
