April 15, 2016


Now I'm doing chores with Meira in my room.


"Finally, my picture is done too" Meira said as she cleaned the eraser marks on the paper.


"See dong. Mine's still not."


"Nih" he said as he handed the paper.


I saw the picture too.


"May, your picture is wrong."


"Which one?"


"The one next to this." I said as I pointed at the picture.


"Ooo.. ok, I'm really first."


He immediately confirmed the picture and I continued to work on my picture.


Tok...


I immediately opened my room door.


"Eh, dad. Kok tumben has come home at this hour." I said confused.


"Dad you want to eat the mallem outside."


"Eh, I can't. I'm gonna do my job again with you in the room."


"Who? Is there a friend of yours in the room?"


"Yes." Yeah."


"Chick or boy?"


"The girl, yeah. Yes, I continue to do it first."


I also closed my bedroom door.


"Your father?" ask Meira.


"Yes." Yeah."


"Ooo..your mom?"


"Emmm."


"Eh, sorry. I don't know, Bri."


"Gapapa. What if your family is like?" manya curious.


"Emm. My parents are busy, so I rarely go home."


"Aren't you lonely?"


"No. I am used to being busy. Even I used to hear their voices noisily in the room."


"Emm... Your parents often have a skull?"


"Yes that's it."


"Emmmm. We can only pray the best for our parents."


He just nodded his head. Then we fell silent and worked on our picture again.

I was shopping with my dad today.


"That was good, Na." said Dad.


"Emm.The clothes were too short underlings, Nana did not like it too much."


"Ooo, yeah, you're looking for something else."


"Nana laper, yeah. We go eat yuk."


"Who? Not buying clothes?"


"Not so, yeah. Nana's clothes at home are still a lot of good, next time just buy it."


Dad just nodded his head. Then we went to the food court.


"What do you want to eat?"


"Emm. fried rice looks good. What do you want to eat?"


"Dad wants chicken noodles there" he said, pointing to his place.


"Yes, Nana pesen first yes."


I quickly got out of my seat and went to order food.


In about 20 minutes, I came back with a queue number. I saw you talking to a man. After I saw it more clearly, it turned out that the man was om Dean.


"Eh, Nana. Did you finish the pesen?" ask dad.


"Udah, yeah."


"Nana." say hello to Dean to me.


"Hello, um."


I sit back in my chair.


"Where is college, Na?"


"Emmm. good - all right, um."


"2 more years you graduated?"


"Yes, um."


"Where's nico?" ask my dad about Dean.


"He's busy working."


"Same father, have you promised?" my many.


"No. Om was just here to take care of something, keep seeing your dad again sitting here."


"Ooo..."


"Om already not sab.." om Dean's words were cut because the father arrived - suddenly immediately covered his mouth with his hands.


"Not now" said my father, staring at Dean.


What was Dean going to talk about?

August 13, 2016


It's August now. And the new semester has begun. This semester, I'm back in class with Meira.


"Unexpectedly, we will be in the same class again" Meira said while hugging me.


"Yes, yeah."


"Would you go to the cafeteria before you go home?"


"You."


The lecturer came, and we were both silent. The class was finally finished after 1 hour.


"So, dong"


ddrrt...


Meira's HP reads. He immediately lifted it. I saw Meira's face suddenly panicked.


"Emmm.. Bri, I have to get home. Next time go to the cafeteria."


"Yes, what a gapapa."


He left me in class. Looks like the phone brought bad news for him. I dare not ask him.


•••••••••••••••••••••••


ddrrtt...


"Hello."


"Bri, can you pick me up not on campus?" ask Meira.


"Eh, I can. Wait a minute."


I disconnected and immediately took my car keys.


About 25 minutes, I got to the college. I saw Meira waiting in front of the security guard post.


"May." call me.


"Bri." call him back.


He came straight to me.


"Why you?" manyworry.


His face was like crying.


"Emmm... Can I stay at your house tonight?"


"May I."


"Thank you, yeah."


Now I'm home.


"Yuk in."


He came in and sat down on the sofa.


"Want a drink?" bargain me.


"Can."


I went to the kitchen to get some water.


"Now, May."


He accepts. And I sat down next to him.


"Emm... You have a problem again?"


"Yes. But, I don't want to talk about it anymore."


"Gapapa. If you're ready, you can tell me."


He just smiled while nodding his head.


"Emmm.. Can I take a shirt?" tanyakanya.


"Can kok. Want to take a shower?"


"Emm. yes."


I'll take my shirt right away. Fortunately Meira and I were about the same size. So, my clothes can fit on her body too.


"Nih, Mei." I said while giving her clothes and pants.


"Thank you, yeah."


He also went to the bathroom. I sat back on the sofa and checked the message on my HP. A message caught my attention. But, I just read it without replying.


"Bri." call Meira.


"Eh, is it over? Not taking a shower?"


"No. Emm.. I'm laper, you have no food?"


"Is like. Come with me to the kitchen."


I went to the kitchen and followed Meira.


"There's a snack. Want to eat some food?"


"No need. Snacks are enough."


"But you're a laper. Time just snacking."


"Gapapa. I've given you a snack." she replied with a smile.


I feel bad. I ordered the food in silence.


"You?" haggle Meira while offering a potato snack.


"No, for you."


He just nodded his head and continued eating his potato snack. I just realized that his hand was hurt.


"What's your hand?"


"What a small wound."


"Worse, you say only small." I said with a somewhat snapping tone.


I immediately picked up the p3k box in my room drawer. And immediately treat the wound.


"My parents always told me that a wound like this was just a small wound."


What do his parents mean? Obviously, the injury is severe.


"It's bad, May. Don't you feel very sick?"


"Feel anyway. But, I don't care."


"May, don't be afraid to tell me anything. I will always be horrified by all your complaints." I said while looking at him.


"Emm. thanks yeah."


I finished putting the bandage in his hand.


Ting tong's..


"Missi mbak, this is her pesenan."


"Oh yes. Here'smoney. Thanks to ya."


After that, the man immediately left. And I went back home.


"Now, food."


"You're an agent for me?"


"Well, I can't have you just snacking."


"Emm. thanks yeah."


"Same - same."


After that, he ate it with gourmand.
