Distance to Heart

P a r t 10

So long silent and crying makes the atmosphere in the car feel quiet. Just the sound of the car engine roaring took me and Andra took a trip to my house. Finally I ventured to break the silence and asked why the man had entered the taxi.

"You want to ride in this cab, don't you have a car?" ketus.

"Have it" he answered briefly.

"Otherwise, why is it here now, it's out there?" expel me

"Not to be held accountable. This car is also a long way off. We'll be home soon,"

"You're this, really slipping," I said, wanting to hit him with one hand, but not.

"Sorry Sir, Mom. I cut the screw. Actually, Dad, where's this mom going, huh?" ask the taxi driver.

"To the street-,"

"Cendrawasih Street number twenty-three" the man replied, grabbing my words.

"That's my home address, how can he know" I said in my heart.

"Basic stalker!"

"No! I'm not a stalker!"

"Keep, why do you know my home address? Now we just meet again,"

"Oh if you find out the background of people. It's about easy. Anyway now I'm just here to take you home. That's it,"

"No need to drive home, I can do it myself. It's down there. I'm not a schoolboy who needs to be delivered"

"No way, anyway I want to take you home, period! I'm khaw-, anyway,"

"What?!"

"Ah be quiet, soon to your house. Don't worry, you better sleep, "

Along the way home, I put on a sullen face, I was annoyed with Andra's childish and outrageous behavior and speech like that. What's more he's been sitting next to me for too long, but even so honestly, I thank him for accompanying me home.

***

"Kanaya, wake. We have arrived" Andra said, touching my arm and cheek that fell asleep just before arriving home.

Because I don't get any answers from me. That guy wants to carry me. However, I quickly blinked when I got a touch from Andra's hand that felt on my waist. I woke up, and hurriedly opened the wallet I was holding and took some nominal money. As shown on the argo meter screen.

"No need, I have paid using E-payment, there you go in, it's late at night" said Andra while opening the car door.

I still put on a sullen face and kept thinking. Why is this guy being a little sweet to me? Does he want attention? Or want to find out about me? Ah, it doesn't matter to me. I really do not want to forgive him for all the mistakes he has made in me, which almost ended my future six years ago.

I immediately got off and before the car left I held the door so it wouldn't be closed by l Andra.

"Wait," I said slowly.

"What else?" he answered while opening the car door.

"Thank you,"

"For what?"

"For a taxi and already nau mene-, uh he means, the ride,"

"Oh that, relax again" Andra replied as she closed the car door.

It was true that his behavior made me even more furious, but my feet immediately stepped into the gate of the house despite being a bit hobbled and in pain. However, when I want to open the gate. Someone with a baritone voice cleared from behind.

***

I was surprised, then turned to see the voice that was talking to me.

"Yes, for the last one. I'm sorry for suddenly leaving without your permission," I replied awkwardly.

"So I tried to chase after you, but in the middle of the road my stomach was heartburn again" explained Erwin as he held his stomach.

"But it's okay, isn't it your stomach, you're taking medicine? Let me write down the recipe if you want,"

"Not yet, but it's better after twice back,"

"Oh thank goodness, then I go into the house, yes,"

Erwin nodded, but a moment later he touched my hand.

"Wait, Kay. I have something to ask you,"

The atmosphere turned silent, Erwin was like he was thinking of saying a sentence of questions while I waited for what he would ask me.

"On that matter, when you met Mr. Andra, did you know each other before?"

The deg!

For a moment I was silent, I was at a loss what to say. No way, I told you the truth about me and Andra to Erwin who is now my lover. I also scratched my head which was not really itchy.

"Oh about me running, I-I was, a-a patient, which I actually have to visit," I answered the lie while scratching my head and biting my lower lip out of nervousness

"You're visiting a patient. What's that supposed?" erwin asked as his forehead crept.

"Yes so, actually today, I was invited by one of the patients who gave thanks at the same time for being able to give birth normally thanks to my help, when the baby was breech," I explained again lying.

"Oh so, yeah. There go inside, it's night, anyways I want to go home too. About that I also apologize to you. Because of the stomach ache, I can't get you home,"

I heaved a sigh of relief, being able to answer all the questions Erwin had asked. Although the answer is a little less deceiving the man, but even so. I don't think it's a problem. Because if I tell you the truth. I was afraid that it would arouse suspicion and lead to a quarrel between me and Erwin. And for my meeting with Andra tonight, after six years. May it be the last meeting for him and me.

***

After saying goodbye to Erwin, I went into the house.

"Just come home, sister," said Kamila my sister when she saw me open the door.

"Oh yeah, your tumben hasn't slept,"

"For insomnia, the stomach needs to be filled,"

"Review later, you're fat,"

"No, I just eat fruit,"

"Yes, Brother wants to go up first to the room, tired of going to sleep,"

"Okay, but wait, brother. That brother came home, who?

"Eem, you mean, what?" I pretended not to know.

"Yes, I just saw Brother driven home in another car, not Kak Erwin's car. I also saw Sis Erwin waiting for his old brother in front of the house, I called, told him to go into the house, even did not want to," explained Kamila.

"Oh that, right at Erwin's party, he had a heartburn, and he went to the toilet for a long time, so I thought he had gone home first. Put Brother on foot. Uh all of a sudden, there's Erwin's friend who's hitching a ride. Yes, my brother came. Eh, even all of you were escorted to the front of the house," I said as I bit my lower lip.

Once again I sighed at being able to explain it so flawlessly to Kamila even though I thought about it spontaneously. Oh my God, forgive me and thank you for helping me tonight to lie to my loved ones. You must be angry, but also understand why I can lie like that?

Seriate...
