False Love's
White Lily
Today is the anniversary of Kai's death. It is customary for Kai to always bring his late mother's favorite white Lily flowers to the funeral. That morning Kai drove on a motorbike he borrowed from a neighbor to a busway stop near campus. Given the great distance of the funeral, his memorial day seemed different.
After arriving at the side of the road near the busway stop, Kai seemed to be waiting for someone while tidying up his appearance. Hem black given by Rama's father and combined with cotton twill trousers made from milk chocolate with adidas hamburg shoes added to his confidence. Several times Kai looked at the glass to tidy up his messy hair hit by the helmet. I don't know why it's not Kai's habit like this. His heart was too happy maybe that was the reason. This trip was almost like a first date for her.
From behind the running direction a brown-skinned girl with thick glasses had her hair tied without braids. The girl wore a salem-colored knit sweater and used a scarf on her neck.
After being right behind Kai, the girl gently patted Kai on the back. Kai quickly looked over..
"Rava.. You've come"
"Have you been here long?" anya
"No I just came.can you please bring this" said Kai while giving a bunch of White Lily flowers.
"This flower.."
"You just hold it in a minute, you'll know where we're going. Here's your head" said Kai as he put a helmet on the sweet girl in front of him.
Anya's heart skipped a beat instantly. Leg.deg.deg..
"I can do it myself Kai" Anya said slightly backwards
"Be quiet." said cold Kai
Anya held her smile.
When they finished they went somewhere.
"This flower is so beautiful. Is this for me?" said Anya teased Kai
"You like it?. If you like tomorrow I buy it for you" said Kai
Anya thought hard actually for who this flower is. Thoughts that do not come. ".. don't-don't it's Sherly's.." but he kept thinking positively because he didn't want to repeat the same mistake as yesterday.
"I'm not curious. This beautiful flower is for whom" said Anya who was on the bench behind the bike
"You're the one who's really impatient" Kai said with a faint smile
After a 45-minute drive they finally arrived at a funeral parking lot. Kai put his motorcycle down, then went into the funeral. Anya just fell silent following Kai's footsteps while carrying a bunch of white Lily flowers. After passing through several rows of tombs, Kai finally stopped in front of the tombstone
it says Elizabeth S. Christopher. Plastered in the frame of the face of a British woman who has the exact same eyes as Kai's eyes. Anya looked carefully..
"Well is this your mother's gravestone" Anya said
"You're so slaughtered. Come here I'll introduce you to my mama". Say Kai while pulling Anya's arm to align with her.
Kai put his mother's favorite Lily flower and raised both hands and placed it on the chest while saying a prayer, Anya followed while closing her eyes.
In Anya's heart said ".tante salam know my name is Maureen Ravanya friend Kai son of aunty. I just became friends with him a while ago. Kai's aunt's son is kind, gentle but a little cold. Yesterday he told me that he can't get close to women since auntie came back to heaven. Please let me be friends with Kai aunt. Even though I have a secret behind my identity I hope aunty can understand. I'm sorry, aunt. May the aunt always be quiet in Heaven..."
Finished praying Kai said in front of his mother's tombstone
"Ma meet Kai. Today I brought her to introduce you to my first female friend. Our meeting was arranged by God. Pray we are always together. May you always love Kai, Dad and Rava. Ameeeennn"
Anya remained speechless hearing from Kai for her mother. In his mind Kai is typical of people who love their parents. His heart was happy to have such a friend. In his life, rarely would anyone want to be friends with him sincerely. Anya's best friend can only be counted fingers. Friends in Indonesia used to view Anya as an arrogant girl. But that's not her true nature. It's just that too many experiences in the past that made his heart hurt so he was more picky in making friends.
After finishing the funeral Kai invites Rava to eat at the tavern he used to go with his father.
"Well, Kai. Who is this woman? Your father's not coming?" said the shop owner
"This is my friend Rava uncle. I'll have a little business later." Say Kai while sipping mineral water.
"For almost 20 years you've been the first woman Kai's been here with." Said the man to Anya
Anya just smiled with excitement..
Drrrrtt.drrrttt.drrrt The vibrating sound of Anya's phone reads visible on the screen that reads "Mama"
"Yes hello ma"
"You where dear mama now in the cafe you really do not exist. Bianca said you left early in the morning" Anya's mom said on the phone
Anya slightly moved away from Kai. Anya uses Indonesian language so that it is not known by Kai.
"Loh mama said next month here, why have a cafe?. Anya hmbb me again out with my friend ma. But the place is far away."
"What time are you back, baby?. Mama, your dad has a little business here. But we'll be back in Indonesia in a week."
"Okay then mama tell you again. Mama's going to Canberra first. Bye dear be careful." Mama Anya said
"Every ma love you" Anya replied as she hung up the phone.
From a distance not far away Kai accidentally heard the vague words of Anya. Kai's father who is of Indonesian blood used to speak Indonesian every day. So Kai understood what Anya said. But it sounded very faint a few words that confused Kai. In Kai's mind, Rava several times said cafe and Anya. Do they know each other? Is it true Anya the southeast Asian girl? Because it's too vague Kai can't draw any conclusions.
Anya sat down next to Kai again, and saw that some dishes were arranged on the table.
"It looks good" Anya said
"Let's eat" said Kai smiling faintly
"I wonder why you brought a white Lily to your late mother. Why not White Roses or Chrysanthemums" Anya said as she chewed on food
"Because my mama likes that flower the most. White Lily is a purity and purity. My dad says mom likes to arrange Lily's flowers at home."
"Your mother doesn't seem to be of Australian descent" huh"
"My mother is of English descent Rav. My father is of Indonesian blood."
"Heah.. Indonesia I did not expect Kai turned out to be your good looks produced a blend of England and Indonesia. Cool.cool.." Anya said while giving 2 thumbs to Kai
Kai saw her behavior just smiled amusedly.
Drrttt.drrtttt.
"Hallo. Where's dad?" kai answered his father's phone in Indonesian
Sontak Anya was surprised to hear Kai is very proficient in Indonesian. In his mind, Kai never heard my conversation.
"Dad almost to this store. You where?" Said Rama's Father
"I'm at the store and I'm done eating"
"Okay dad's almost there. Wait for dad"
Kai hung up the phone from his father. He accidentally saw the face of the girl next to him.
"Do you know Indonesian?" Say Anya while speaking Indonesian
"Well of course" said Kai casually
"Did you understand the conversation with my mom on the phone?"
" You mean..... Ah isn't. You've moved away where I can hear. That's your privacy anyway why I should eavesdrop" said Kai flatly
"Oh okay I trust you Kai" Anya said doubtfully but in her heart had to believe her friend could not betray her.
A 5-minute interval suddenly appeared a handsome, Indonesian-faced adult man sitting beside Kai.
"Dad you've come... What do you want to order?"
"As usual, dear. Who is this girl Kai?" Rama's father smiled at Anya.
"This is Kai yah's classmate. His name is Rava"
"Hello om I am Rava Kai's classmate" while shaking Rama's father's hand.
"Just this time I saw you're the same way girl" Kai's father teased
"Dad be" said Kai embarrassedly
"You're an Indonesian, son? I am also a native Indonesian loh wong jowo"
"Om native Javanese where my father Jakarta om, my mother is poor native"
"yes I am also a poor person, son, happy to meet his brother Satanah air gini" said Rama's father sumringah.
"Dad don't talk about it. I'm the only person who has never been to Malang even though it's Dad's hometown" said memelas.
"is it true Kai. if we go on vacation let's go. Malang beautiful city many excursions there exciting deh" Anya said with a smiling imagine
Rama's father just smiled at the behavior of the two young men. In the heart of Rama's father said "sabarlah dear there is a time you will live in Indonesia. I'll give you back where you came from we'll take back what's rightfully ours..."
