FIRE FOR ARJUNA

Sepi

Early in the morning, with already wearing a shirt that fits on his body as well as jeans as his subordinates, Sekar went straight to Neira's room. There's still an hour to go to college. She rushed to bathe Neira then changed her clothes, fed her and parted with the little girl for the next few hours.

Sekar waved at the public transport that would take him away to campus. Arjuna himself had already gone to the airport because he got a morning flight schedule. The man slept in Sekar's room and only came out at dawn.

Arriving at the campus, Sekar rushed to see in the room where he had to take the test. After getting it, he immediately looked for his stool number in accordance with the number already listed given by the committee.

Nearly two hours into the written test, he finally completed the task well. Now stretching his hand, handing over the paper with an answer he believed would give him a chance to join this favorite campus.

Once out, he immediately checked the phone, there was a notification from Arjuna. The man has arrived. Smile now. He immediately received a call from Arjuna.

"Thank God Mas Juna has arrived. I also just ran, Mas," said Sekar while sitting in front of a basketball court, where there were some students who seemed to be seniors were playing.

"Yes, you quickly go home with rest. I'll call you back later if you've done business here."

"Yes, Mom, you too yeah, don't forget to eat."

Arjuna smiled on the other end of the phone and the phone connection was cut off. As Sekar was casually playing his cell phone, a handsome student who was resting on the sidelines, looked at him seriously.

"Who the hell?" he asked his friends who happened to stop playing basketball also to just drink.

"It's like a new kid who's going to college here too. Beautiful yes, tar kalo ospek, my part deh."

The young man who asked just looked at his friend annoyed, but then he again saw Sekar who had moved and left.

"Yes, I haven't met him yet."

"Bo lama, Ka. Tar aja ospek time, surely the child passed the test really. Looks like a smart kid."

Just back home, immediately invite Neira to play. He told my mother that today he was very happy because he could finish the test easily. The madam listened carefully while smiling and chiming in no less excited anyway.

As night fell, Sekar received a video call from Arjuna. She immediately went inside her room after she finished putting Neira to sleep.

"Not sleepy?" asked Arjuna who seemed to have just finished taking a shower.

"No, Mas. How was Juna today? Smoothly?"

"Current, dear. No, I open the door, like there's a hotel clerk in front."

Now nodding, Arjuna left his phone, leaning on the tissue box on the table right beside the bed so that Sekar could clearly see the luxurious hotel rented by the man.

He could faintly hear the activities in the hotel kama until finally, He heard a voice that was familiar to him. A moment of silent attention then Arjuna returned and turned off the phone without having time to say goodbye for the night.

"So I thought she sounded like Ema."

Sekar sighed softly. But anyway, Ema was still in Jakarta this afternoon. Did she choose a different watch than Arjuna?

Sekar stared at his cellphone which was now silent, silent because Arjuna left. Besides being quiet and lonely, she also felt troubled, it seemed that Ema would never give up on getting Arjuna. Sekar stared at the ceiling of the room, then gasped when he heard the sound of Neira crying loudly from above.

He immediately went to the little girl's room and carried her back to calm her down and put her back to sleep. Neira is quite fussy tonight, while Sekar is still worried about Ema and Arjuna who must be in the same place at the moment.
