Deepest Wound

Deepest Wound
I'M NOT GOOD IN THE KITCHEN



...Happy reading...


The sun was shining brightly, it was time to get back to real life and a bit of drama that this woman was a strong woman despite having just cried last night and screamed bitterly.


A sincere smile is a powerful weapon to cover all suffering. Blending in the crowd even though it still feels alone and empty. Even I would have faced the angel of death if night had come.


I often wait until midnight to close my eyes hoping to wake up when morning comes.


I never said anything about this to anyone. But I tell you all so you can judge how deep my wounds are.


Sometimes I want to complain, but to whom?


Because it's useless, even though the whole universe knows, I'm still the only one who feels the pain.


I've heard, if we share it with others, it will reduce the sense of burden. Just reduce the burden, not relieve the pain.


As a child, I was used to harboring feelings-related problems. By telling stories I think will only add to the pain. So I'd rather just shut up and try not to care.

I go back to town once a month every paycheck. Even though it was only 1 or 2 nights for me it was more than enough to treat my longing for the atmosphere of home and city.


Because lately the weather is erratic, so I came home to the shuttle by Bang Fauzan with his car. I actually wanted to ask the company driver to drive me to the city, but Bang Fauzan insisted that he take me. The driver became unwell and finally persuaded me to go among Bang Fauzan.


I got out of the car after I got to my house. I saw Kak Laras already standing on the terrace while feeding Rifqy who was playing there.


“Heii..call Aunt again mamam what?” As he approached and pinched his gnarled cheek.


“Mamam, tuhh..” as he pointed at the bowl held by Kak Laras. I'm getting more and more anxious to see her behavior.


“Later for a walk with Aunt, yes..we mam esklim...,” my words mimicked the language of a child.


“Do not teach him to eat, unhealthy food, you just eat it yourself,” Kak Laras nagging. ”No need to stop by first, huh?” Added Kak Laras while gesturing to me.


I forgot about Bang Fauzan, who was driving me.


“Bang, stop by first..,” bargain me with forced.


“Let's go, Brother still got business. Pamit Mbak...,” said Bang Fauzan to Kak Laras who was answered nod by Kak Laras.


“Thank God, my inner” after Bang Fauzan ran his car and left my home page.


We went inside as I held Rifqy and kissed her cheeks.


“Where's Agil?” I asked while lowering Rifqy.


“Not yet to go home, he said there was overtime.”


“Oh. I take a shower first, it's so hot.” Then go to my room.


My phone rang a sign that a message was coming in. I took my phone back, which I had placed on the bed.


It was a message from Bang Fauzan.


📨[Bang Fauzan] When do you want to go home? I'll come get you.


Ahh, why is it like there's no boss he's trying to get my attention. Back I remembered how Brother Ardi was so persistent in chasing me. Even though I used to beat him in front of my classmates.


But what happened after that?


As soon as I entrusted all my happiness to her, she easily sent a message to inform her of her marriage.


After taking a shower I stood in front of the mirror while drying my hair with a towel. A message back in.


I dropped my body on the bed while reading a message from Bang Fauzan requesting a reply from me.


📨[Me] I still have a bit of business and don't know when I'll be back. Don't bother, I can hire a taxi.


Tok tok!


“Anita..., let's have dinner..!” Call Kak Laras from outside my room.


“I'm not hungry yet..!”


“Ya, already...later you eat, yes!?” Kak Laras's Message.


I'm still busy checking the messages that go into my phone. A lot of messages were piling up and I was just replying to messages that I thought were important. I'm not a stale talker over the phone or a message if I'm not interested. Except for those who are very close to me.


Not long after my phone went off. There's a call coming in. I was a little surprised and wondered how he could call me. Isn't there a hard signal.


“What's up, Bang? Why can you call me?” Ask directly.


“Sorry, I stopped by first, went up the mountain to contact you. Hehe...”.


“So These nights are on the mountain!”


“I yes...aduhhh! Many mosquitoes!” It sounded like Bang Fauzan was hitting a mosquito that might be covering it.


I'm shocked. There are people like this who go up the mountain just to make a call.


“Yes already, you better go home, I'm worried brother why-why,” my word.


“In the meantime, you also want to contact your family in the city. Thanks for worrying.”


Huh...! Did I say worry!? I'm ingrained.


“Not feeling yet...Bang. As a natural friend I feel worried...” while I roll my eyeballs because I have imagined how the look of Bang Fauzan's face today. He must have been grinning indistinctly on that mountain.


“Iya yes...Brother knows. Friends, and hopefully later also be a friend of life.”


“Abang don't mess around, said the greeting person do'a you know. Want to have a friend who is not good in the kitchen?” Attack me and hopefully Bang Fauzan immediately rewind his steps after knowing the shortcomings that exist in me.


A moment of silence after finally being heard again Bang Fauzan responded to my words earlier.


“Since the beginning I've liked you the first time we met. I wish we could meet again, and it turns out destiny really brings us together. Everyone has their own shortcomings and advantages, and I am ready to accept all the shortcomings that exist in you even though I actually do not think they are shortcomings. I don't even see any flaws in you. When it comes to cooking, we can learn after we get married. Hehe...”.


My intention is to make Bang Fauzan stay away why make the conversation more serious and we like to get married.


I just sighed without knowing what to respond to. Because worry will become more serious.


It just so happened that Laras broke into my room so I had a reason to end the conversation.
