Saturday afternoon when I came home from work, I intended to find Goldie to say goodbye, also to Mr. Tomo and Putra. I feel like I won't be able to see them again especially Goldie, because I'm back at Sanur's house.
My motorcycle parked across the street in front of Goldie's house. The gate as usual opens a little every afternoon. Then I called the dog's name loudly. "Goldie!!... Goldie!! .. Goldie!!!... I could hear him barking from the inside and then Goldie's feet were pounding out. I crouched down to hug her tightly while Goldie naturally did not want to be silent. He's heading and lunging at me. His tail swayed to the left and to the right with a tight "Duh I miss you so much. Waiting for me every afternoon, huh?! " i said while rubbing his back
After she calmed down a bit I spoke to her quietly while stroking her head and chest, "Goldie I might not be able to come here again. My mom just recovered from an accident. I have to go home and can't stay here anymore. I'd see you once in a while if I could. So good dog Goldie" I said sadly
Goldie only barked once, maybe she understood what I was talking about.
Without me noticing a male figure standing in front of the gate was watching me. Slowly he stepped closer, I who just realized there was someone approaching immediately turned to him. I was really surprised because this approaching man was Galang. I stood up and walked back a few steps. "God why is he here?! All my calm these few months will be muddled until she knows my identity. I'm sure he won't recognize me because I'm wearing a mask and a helmet right now" I muttered in my heart.
I turned around and rushed towards my motorcycle which was not far from there. I meant to just leave. When I was about to start my motorcycle, Galang's long hand quickly pulled the key out. "HEY!!! I scream in shock
I got off my motorcycle to try to take it back from Galang's hands. I put my right hand in front of him.
He shook his head "open his helmet first" He said in a soft voice looking at me fixedly. This gentle voice of Galang successfully made my stomach suddenly get strange pains back to how it used to be. I sighed and turned around, intending to get back on my motorcycle to be a little distant from him. My heart doesn't seem to miss doing anything she's taking part in with her spirit beating. "Gosh why with just one sentence was able to ravage my feelings like this anyway?!this can't happen. You're strong Nami, you have to get out of here" I muttered again, my hands are tight on my bike handlebar.
Galang approached me, his hand stuck out at me and opened the hook of the helmet I was using quickly. I held both of his hands while shaking.
"I want to see your face Nami, I miss you" she said, whispering.
"Did he recognize me?" Again with just a few words, making me unable to wince, my eyes suddenly filled with a puddle of water that was ready to spill at any time. I let her hand lower my hand and then slowly opened the helmet and mask I was using.
He looked at me with a smile, then I could see drop by drop of tears flowing in the corner of Galang's clear eyes. I can no longer stifle my current emotions. I hit his chest with my palm repeatedly while sobbing. Galang then hugged me tightly even though I was still trying to beat him up.
"I'm sorry baby, you deserve to be angry, I'd rather you get angry like this. Rather than not being able to see you again at all" Galang whispered in my ear. I could only sob even louder when I heard what he said.
"You evilttt!!!, you released me Galang. Why are you coming again now. WHAT DO YOU WANT???!!!! " I screamed emotion in Galang still while sobbing.
Galang still hugged me tightly, without saying anything.
As seconds passed, my emotions seemed to have died down. I pulled my body from Galang's embrace and wiped the remains of my tears with my palm.
"I owe you an explanation" said Galang, breaking the silence
"Why new now? You're sure I'd listen to him. Better not explain anything. Get me my keys, I want to go home and it's getting dark" I replied coldly.
"Because now is the right moment "Smooth words are like trying to make me calm again.
"Huhh??!! After so many things I went through alone??!! You're saying now's the right time? Amazing Galang" My friend is cynical
"I beg you to listen to me first Nami. After this please if in the end you really go and..hate me" Galang sound vibrating.
I held my forehead which was hot. I took out a bottle of mineral water from my bag and sipped it quickly leaving half of its contents. Galang took the bottle from my hand and gulped it down.
"That's my water" I said
"Oh yeah?! how come your name isn't here? "
I who was not joking could only gulp and bite my lips holding back a laugh.
"I heard your mother had an accident?"
"Yes, getting hit from behind on a motorcycle ride to the market early in the morning"
"Continue now how is he?" It sounds worried
"It's better"
"Ck! There's-there's a name on the road, may your mother recover quickly"
"Daddy makasi" I said quickly
"I heard you said you had to go back to Sanur's house, where did you live yesterday? " Task Galang again while sitting sideways on the motorcycle seat behind me.
"Why should I explain it to you? "
My answer is to back him.
"Because I want to know, what happens after we part" he said softly.
I shook my head "why do you want to know?
" Because I still love you so much, Nami, I can't just let go of you"
"What joke is this? Not funny at all!! April's fool is over" I replied annoyed with the position of the body still on his back.
"It's not funny, it's serious" Galang pushed my head slowly with his head from behind.
This push of his head made my feelings become mixed.
"Down yuk first, I want to talk. Why is your hair so short? It was also blue" Galang grabbed a few strands of my hair and twisted them slowly.
I didn't answer the question. I took my phone in my backpack to send a message to the meme, to let him know that I'm going home late today.
While without me knowing Galang behind was sniffing my hair with enthusiasm.
I get off my motorcycle "where do you want to talk?"
"In there" Galang pointed to the house of the Son.
I stepped up quickly, while Galang tailed me with a big smile.
