That's what Ira liked about this man, he always gently rubbed Ira's hand when sitting close together especially in a piggy bank like this.

"Where will malem go?"

"Work anyway, it was a holiday to take the mother's path but there is an appointment."

"Yet tomorrow again."

"Straight as others go."

"Wanna go?"

"I think you want, a lot of pretty girls in there."

"Oh please go, eat some pretty girls!"

"What the hell is mom? kidding"

"Work later malem, don't want it too if go where?"

"You know ko!"

"You are understanding."

Turning his motorbike from a distance, Grandpa and Nesti were sitting in front of the house.

"Udah here."

Stop a little far from Grandpa's house.

"Eat yes!"

"Yes, thank you."

"I'm home?" Ari turned his bike.

Ira stood looking at the back of the man who was missing in the turn.

"She just got home?" ask Hesti.

"Yes!" nyelonong passed by grandfather's house.

The door is closed, maybe Tia is playing. Ira opened her shoes and went straight into the room.

"Hmmm.." let out a long sigh, he opened the veil and hung up his bag.

Sitting in front of the mirror, one by one unbutton his shirt.

"How will I explain this later?" he said he saw the former cup*an on his payud*raanya.

The woman smiled "Ari" he said, recalling what he had done earlier.

*Click* incoming message.

"Well, back to school? later picked up at 7 am." message from Gadun.

"Say 8 o'clock?"

"Seek more time."

Ira just fell silent not to reply. How could he make time for that man. It's just his need for nothing more than that.

"Damn!" he said he was upset but he couldn't do anything.

"Brugg!!" slammed himself in bed.

"When to go? Well, I'm tired of having to do this. How am I to be free from this? I lost my way, it felt like everything went wrong. There are too many difficulties that I have to solve alone." said inwardly.

Slicing with pain, his chest tight he had trouble breathing wanted to cry but his tears did not come out and.

"Babes!!" the sound of plates breaking from the kitchen.

Ira got out of her sleep. When he was going to the kitchen, he passed his mother and they just stared at each other without talking and Ira went back to her room.

"No matter it's better!" he said he locked the door.

*

At 17:05 p.m. Sure enough, heavy rain accompanied by wind down to wet the earth. The woman woke up from her sleep looking out the window.

"Maybe better." she let her hair unravel walk out of the house.

The woman stood in the rain. He wished he could cry at that time, but still the tears did not come out.

Cold shivering. It was better for him, because he himself believed that only himself, his body, could share all his pain.

"That rain?" tia stood in the doorway.

"You coming?"

"Mom would you like to rain on Ira tea?"

"Can't be sick!"

"No need for Tia diem!"

The woman walked towards the grandmother's house.

"Sick Ra kayak little boy!" shouted the grandmother who had already noticed Ira.

Nesti and Sindi came out of the house.

"You want to follow?" the two of them immediately went down to play in the rain together with his brother.

Under the large guava tree there is a swing-swing that is based on one board tied by a rope. Ira sat there and her sister pushed her.

"Dingiiinn haha!!" best Ira.

"Hujaaan!!" Hesti shouted.

"Duuuiiiiiit!!!!!" Ira shouted increasingly louder.

"Hahahaha." They all laughed.

That afternoon under the guava tree, the cold rain pierced to the chest. Ira felt the heavy burden she was carrying was reduced even if only slightly.

The tightness in her chest had disappeared, now that the woman could breathe again.

Ira woke up who was sitting on the swing watching the two sisters talking to each other about what they felt.

"Hopefully not just today, at least you two should be like this until later" Ira said in her heart.

"Maghrib neng!" yell Grandma

"Bath that shower!" Ira said to her two sisters who were chatting.

"Early yet?"

"Udah!" walking towards home leaving them.

"Tiaa? Tiaa?" Ira shouted to call his sister.

"Open the back door wet!"

Tia went straight to the back.

Ira went straight into the bathroom.

"Please bring a towel in the room!"

"Yes." Yeah."

Ira took off her clothes and washed them straight away. Then she took a shower.

"It's so hot water."

"Tokay!poke! tea is the towel."

"Behold, it's already." Ira opened the door in a towel.

"So right get a towel there's a phone tteh."

"Who? tia lift?"

"Ari, the boyfriend said."

Ira smiled hearing that. Obstructing her breasts*her hair out of the bathroom goes straight to the room followed by Tia.

"Keep saying what?"

"Kan Tia said this is the granddaddy, where do you keep going? Tia says it's raining rich little kids. He laughed." Tia explained.

Ira smiled, "Please get the keys to the house, but I want to go home later!"

Tia out of the room.

Ira dries her hair. Wearing a deodorant, opening a closet and getting dressed.

"Tea." gave the house the key.

"Thank you!"

Then Tia left the room.

Sleeping on his bed covered, seeing the phone there are 3 calls from Ari that have not been answered.

Ira sent him a message.

"Just finished the shower."

*Duut duut!!" phone's vibrating.

"Yes?"

"Udah?"

"What?"

"Well, will the rain hurt?!"

"Intentionally!"

"Well eat?"

"Not yet, later."

Ari's voice on the phone is very noisy not because.

"Where? noisy."

"For work."

"Yes it is."

"Yes, eat yes!" Ari turned off the call.

Once their relationship if not directly, there is rarely a conversation. After all, it is free to accompany Ari to work while making noisy calls.

Ari works as a truck driver, his expertise in carrying a car is not in doubt because he also often goes out of town with his car.

Actually there are many other jobs, but Ari chose it, according to him there is no more fun work than we feel comfortable when doing it. He likes his job.

*

Maghrib Adhan said the woman went to the bathroom to get water and pray.

After she finished she sat in front of the mirror to get dressed. This time she was actually purposely dressed up like a grown woman. Wearing jeans and a tangtop, cover it with a jacket.

Outside there was no sound of rain.

"Maybe it's gone away."

*Duut duut!!* incoming call.

"Yes?"

"Udah ready? this is all right to take."

"Where?"

"On the empty house."

"Attent." Ira turned off the call.

Walking out of the room there was no one. Tia and Mom are in her room.

Open the door and then exit. Not rain but a small drizzle.

"What's wrong." walked over his face with his hands.

Passing through my grandmother's house, they were watching tv in the living room.

From a distance, the car was already there. The woman crossed the street straight in.

"Don't use an umbrella?"

"Nobody, little drizzle either."

The man started the engine of his car and left.

"Well eat?"

"Not yet."

"What do you want to eat?"

"Eat satay."

He was silent watching the road, as soon as Ira looked out that was just a small drizzle now raining.

"Where's the school?"

"It's a habit."

Ira was actually cursed by that man. What to do or whatever if he can always be there. It's just that Ira didn't notice it.
