Don't know how long Purbo slept. When he woke up, he felt he had slept for a very long period of time. The white mosquito net that greeted him first. Purbo gave a glance, but found his wife nowhere.


Purbo grabbed the HP lying on the pillow. He still forgot the combination of numbers to unlock the screen.


"It's already 4 and a half hours" murmured Purbo.


Purbo uncovers the blanket covering his legs. Cold air spreads directly, blowing in through the pores of the skin. The curly fur feathers on his feet brushed away instantly.


By forcing himself, Purbo stepped out of the room. Silent, quiet, as if Purbo was alone in the big house and the stranger. The room without the doorknob that had heard a strange knock was in front of Purbo.


"here? The darling? You where?" purbo asked half-screaming.


There's no answer. The house is really quiet. Mak Nah also did not show himself. Purbo walked slowly to the living room. The brackets light in the middle of the room flickered momentarily. The front door was wide open, blowing wild wind, swerving in a swirl of dry foliage onto the front porch.


The smallest house is still the best place to go home. But for Purbo, the building that is currently occupied, the building that Dini calls home, is not a place that makes it comfortable to go home. Fear spread from the tip of his foot that rested on the cement floor. Gnawing at the bottom of his heart that felt the silence.

A voice sounded from the closet. The radio lights up on its own, producing an indistinct sound. Purbo slightly jumped, observing the radio that still remained buzzing. Slowly he approached the radio, and turned it off. Purbo rubbed the sweat that had not been dripping since when it had soaked his forehead.


"What's your gas doing?" a voice from behind shocked the Purbo. Dini came with a glass of brownish yellow drink.


"Duh Yaangg, I'm shocked to swear," Purbo patted his chest.


"Ihh, cook it so shocked until glaring at Mas," Dini.


"Yes the end of your radio is its own flame Yang. It's strange, "Purbo is so curious, holding his nape.


"It's not strange. That's old radio, old school. It's natural that it's broken. Sound alone, die alone, sometimes walk alone," said Dini flat.


"Huh?" Purbo glared back.


"He he he, joking Mas. Ahh, seriously really," Dini chuckled.


Dini sat on a wooden chair after putting a glass filled with drinks for Purbo. He sat leaning against the chair, looking for a position as comfortable as possible.


"Darling, look at that, your father. He said the man, but the coward asked for forgiveness," said Dini as she rubbed her stomach.


"Yeee, good taste," Purbo pouted and took a seat next to Dini who was mocking his mockery.


"What kind of drink is this?" purbo asked touching the glass in front of him. Feels warm. Purbo opens the glass cover made of red plastic. Thin smoke instantly billowed in the air.


"Ser's aroma. What's this?" Purbo repeated his question.


"That's wedang parem Mas. The point is to warm up, eliminate fatigue in the body of Mas as well," replied Dini kalem.


"Mumpung is still warm immediately drunk Mas," orders Dini.


Purbo. He gulped down the parem that his wife had prepared. Achiness, wry and fresh taste felt on the tongue. The warm sensation also spread to his throat and stomach. Purbo tasted his mouth for a while, then drank the wedang parem back to the toilet, not a single drop left.


"Seger yes. Bener really suitable to drink the cold air like gini," Purbo mangosteen mangosteen.


Sure enough what Dini had said, after drinking the Parem Purbo wedang felt his body felt lighter and fitter. Drowsiness and laziness instantly disappear.


"Sleeping fast, Mas" replied Dini briefly.


"I still feel alien to this house. I don't know, I think there's a part of me missing. Forgetting, but not knowing what I missed" Purbo said. His expression showed confusion.


"I also thought about our car. So all this time our car is always parked outside the village? Left on the side of the road?" Purbo scrunched his forehead.


I did not answer directly. He even touched Purbo's forehead using his right hand. While the left hand was touching his own forehead.


"Not hot, though. But I'm 'ndeming' huh?" say Early with a smile.


"Ah, you keep joking," said Purbo sewot.


"Lha Mas is weird. If you live here, you cannot bring a motor vehicle. I know for myself what the road access is like," Dini explained.


"Yes kayak is not a road that is usually passed by humans alone. It is fitting that the dedemites who pass by the road like that," continued Purbo cuek.


"Huussa! I can't say that!" snaps Early arrive. The beautiful woman looked really angry. His eyes bulged, his hands clutching tightly at the hands of a chair made of teak wood.


"Any angry?" Purbo seems confused by the change in mood of his wife.


"Mas can't say that! Ndak 'goof' Mas!" He was still angry.


"Yes, I'm sorry" said Purbo lightly, feeling his speech was not a big problem. She thought Dini was being sensitive, perhaps the effect of her pregnancy.


"Emm, but the car is safe, right? Won't anyone do that? His sponge cake, what cake," Purbo again asked.


"Before you did not see, all the motorcycles of the villagers here were left in the field at the end of the village earlier you know," said Dini still looks irritated.


"Yes? I didn't see it before," Purbo rubbed his chin.


"Mas Purbo is unfocused," Dini rolled her eyeballs.


"Eh, I want to pray ashar first. It's 4 o'clock now," Purbo sees his HP screen is still locked.


"Oh Mas, duh," Dini suddenly grimaced, holding his hips.


"You why Yang?" ask Purbo to panic. He clasped his hands tightly.


"I don't know, suddenly the grandpa was very strong. Because of hunger. It's time to eat," replied Dini spoiled.


"Huh? It is still afternoon Yang. Cooking hungry? It was not yet time for dinner," Purbo asked in surprise.


"This is the request of Dedek Mas. Dinner is better at this hour anyway. If too late is not good for health," said Dini reassured.


"Yes too. Yes, I don't pray first, then we eat," Purbo rubbed the back of his wife's hand.


"Si Dedek wants it now Mas, can not be delayed. Tuh my stomach the sound of krucuk. Ayuk Mas eat first, later your child is born drooling you know," Dini whining spoiled.


Purbo sighed. Staring at Dini's face that looks round and adorable. Purbo landed a friendly pinch on his wife's cheek so hot.


"All right, come on if that's it. We eat. But not dinner. Dinner," finally Purbo according to. He held Dini's arm, helped her up, then walked hand in hand towards the kitchen.
