Floating Boat

Floating Boat

...Other Desires too...


...****************...


That night's decision became the wisest sign to approach him. He stayed with us in my house for a predetermined time.


The morning after these three days he felt how cramped my house was, crowded, and perhaps unworthy of him. He called me to go for a walk and look at the state of my village. The fragrance is as fragrant as a freshly blooming flower bud on its stalk.


After finishing the bath he approached me only to ask me my readiness to accompany him to a place he had seen from the Phinisi ship he was on at night. That place he told me was unique. He saw that there was a kind of small shining lamp that resembled the inscription I love you.


A special call to me is impossible for me to refuse. I did want to go with her before she even asked me for my readiness. I have given my answer through my heart.aca..., that is if a man has a taste in a woman without confirmation of his previous taste the man will know that his love has been welcomed.


With neatly dressed in checkered clothes, long sleeves, and long jeans, black, complete with views this morning. Bright as the sky is a mixture of blue white, further adding to the beautiful atmosphere seen by the eye. The eyes will never get tired of looking at it even the soul admires the beauty that God created.


"The...!" Call her. "Do you want to accompany me for a moment to a place ?."


Stammering, I replied "m. ma...u !."


"Why does that answer like people are scared of me ?."


"Not scared. I can be honest with you."


"May dong !."


"You're like a clear diamond that's been hiding in distant places."


"Ah you could have. You want me to go to the place I saw from the boat that night ?."


Let alone nemanin, walk all day, I want !."


"You could have, Eden."


He was also easy to joke with. There was such deep happiness in my heart when I saw her smile. Maybe it's not my language that makes him smile or I that looks curly when near him.


Is it okay ?. Indeed, sometimes we have to look like a fool if we want to approach someone let alone fully want us to get, she is a woman who is flattered.


"But by the way how many days you've been here I don't know your name yet. Can I just know your name ?." Ask her.


"By dong !. Let alone names even want to know everything, can also be !."


"Do you know what all that is ?. Danger is also if everything should I know" I thought to myself with a slight laugh.


"Why are you laughing, Eden ? Is there something funny or strange in your eyes ?. In a city of looks like me, ordinary !. It might seem a little strange, people see my appearance but I think, it's just normal !."


"Not !. It's not that, it's not your appearance that I'm laughing at. Your look in my eyes is incredible. Beautiful, charming and beautiful."


"Ah you could have !. Just here I got a compliment from you. All my life just this time there are strangers who dare to flatter me directly in front of me. In Makassar if there are men who talk to me that can be a problem. Just because you are my friend, and the person who helped me here lives in your house then I forgive your words !"


"Oh yes Eden, the lights I saw on the boat that night were indeed deliberately made by the people here huh ?."


"Yes ! That place is actually a sign of life for those who come to this island. Residents keep the lamp with a unique design on the rock island you want to go to, aiming to make anyone who comes here bring love to the community here."


It was a long way away from home. Stone island that became the destination has been seen at the end there.


"You haven't answered my question yet."


"What question, Eden ?."


"Your name, who ?."


"Is it important you want to know ?."


"Said important, not only would it not hurt if I knew your name. The time you lived in my house even your name I don't know."


"Yes, it's already ! But, don't tell anyone if I tell you my name."


"Ok Ready !."


"You can call me Miss or Aliya. Whatever makes you comfortable, that's what you call it"


A speck of hope had been anchored and the anchor of dreams had been planted until half my soul had drifted where it was headed. Missing me is a great name for a face this beautiful.


"Where do you think my name is good ?."


"Not only good but unique."


In the light of this morning's sun where the breeze that came did not stop by my body and did not pay me any attention. He went to bring the fragrance that was on Miss's shirt. I who was beside him smelled his scent as if I had a great miracle.


Is it true that I am a lucky man who can be close to him. Say pretty to her, say beautiful, say subtle, is that true ?.


I hope that's true because her small smile and elegant facial expression indicate that she's not an easy woman to fall in love with.


I was curious about some of the people who came that night including this morning there were two women who were always by his side.


Staying a few meters away from us, we had reached the rock island. In a rather minimal amount of courage I questioned who the two women were always with him.


"Miss, can I ask you a question ?."


"May dong !."


"Who are the two women you are with ?."


"Oh. They're my friends. I'll never get here doing my studies if they don't come along. Forget them because wherever I go they'll always come."


His confession made me even more curious. Because we have arrived at the rock island. He walked faster towards the point where the unique lamp was located.


"Eden, hurry up !" he told me to walk faster.


Though I have been reminded, he has also been reminded. But it was as if he did not feel the sun this morning.


Maybe I'm not normal or I'm keeping my eyes on him. From the back, I occasionally saw his extraordinary appearance. I can say from the hundred women in my village if the body is filled with Miss then the champion must be Miss.


"Where are the lights I saw ?." He asked me again.


"There!. A little more we're up. I'd better be ahead, miss behind me."


This time I went for a walk with a woman. In the village sometimes there are women who also take me for a walk like this. But this is different, I feel that this is not just a walk but carves simple memories.


Now we get to the point of the unique lamp. Because there are rules written there for visitors outside the village who come then have to release the sandals.


Missing who read the rules, she did not even want to let go of her joints.


"How about Eden, when I have to let go of my sandals. Look at this place where there are many more stones. No!" he said.


"Hindu do not be a woman who is flattered if you are near this unique lamp. I forgot it was supposed to be from home, I told you. Why this place is not allowed to wear sandals if around it. People here believe from the moment this lamp is stored here sometimes at night the fishermen who go to sea usually see the figures of a woman or the other. And wearing sandals in the area here until it is said that the people here do not appreciate entering into the house of people if anyone comes here wearing sandals."


In a position still hugged, he while talking "why from earlier you didn't tell me."


The two women who followed him from earlier immediately approached the two of us.


"Take him off !. You're insolent. You don't know who the woman you made that way. It's not polite !."


"I'm sorry I miss you ! I didn't mean it."


"Here, it's okay." Legally.


He rebuked the two women who were a bit harsh on me.


"It's not Eden that's wrong !. You're sorry about Eden. Do not repeat again !."


"Eden, this lamp is unique. In Makassar there are many sights that I have seen but I have never seen a lamp whose light is shaped I Love you like this. Though when viewed from the lights are ordinary even nothing special but at night the light is comfortable once seen"


"Who made this lamp, Eden ?."


"The words of the people who made this lamp are the people here but some say that made it are the Protugis."


"Whoever he is, he's a special person. Moreover, he placed it on this stone island also near the sea. From a distance at night it looks amazing."


Miss still noticed the unique lamp with her two friends while surrounding it excitedly. I just stood there, focused on how beautiful she was. The smell of the perfume she was wearing was attached to my shirt, there was a slight taste that made me tremble like a possessed person. Every now and then I touch the handrails behind my right shoulder but grabbing them is a bit hard, I force it to reach. How does it feel, it turns out this is what it feels like if hugged by a woman.


"Heee what do you see, Eden ?." Reproved me.


While pretending to scratch my head. I said, "no !."


Maybe she knew that I noticed her let alone the hug she accidentally gave me made her look miscellaneous when my eyes pierced through her heart.


What's up ?.


Only a speck of taste can speak to the heart that feels it.


"Don't stay here long, miss. We need to get home before the sun gets hotter."


"So do we have to go home now ?."


"Yes, we're going home now. That lamp you'll always see if you're still in this village."


Without longing, he invited two of his friends home. He looks tired when he walks. Sometimes Miss tells us to stop for a while.


"Eden, I'm exhausted. Can we just take a little break !."


"It can be but not for long."


While standing I waited for him. He sat down while leaning on the shoulder of one of his friends.


From this incident to this incident, I'm getting curious to know who this miss is ?. She seems not only a woman who came for study purposes but maybe in Makassar, she is a woman who is so appreciated.


It was a little wise of me to watch him. Until his tiredness is a bit lost. He stood up to walk back. This time I was made to bother. He asked me to be in the bopong. Hearing that, I did not answer him but noticed that his two friends should not rebuke me again.


"Eden, I want to ask you a favor, I'm tired. Can you just fuck me ?."


"Where yes, no ! I said. Eden is not unwilling, but this is a village not a city. In the village if people see us in a state I carry you will definitely be digosipin. Some of your two female friends would disagree."


"It didn't reach the middle of the village. Just close here. I'll come down when the village is near. My friends won't be angry if you want to. They'll be angry if you don't want to and just think I'm your sister that way, you don't have to feel like I'm a stranger anymore."


Confused what to say. My desires and worries converged, fighting within me. As if not allowing me to carry her. While these eyes that saw her soy sauce felt pity to carry her.


Ah, I don't need to think long. Just do it when I can get this chance. I thought as I prepared my back to ride on.


"Kneel !" I called him to go up.


On my back, he told his two female friends to walk first in front of us. I was nervous, there was something else I felt on my back.


Touched by something that could only be in the realm of the mind. Because it's a little far away too I told Miss to come down before people see us.


"Eden, why stop ?. Are you tired too ?."


"Not_ not that, Miss. Eden doesn't know why ?."


"Then put me down. You may be a soybean. Thank you for taking me so far."


He came down smiling to see me sweating.


"Here I wipe your sweat !."


"No, miss it !. My sweat will dry up on its own.


My tense situation is finally over. Missed walking alone while I was behind her watching her two legs alternately advance forward.


Whatever happened today, for me it was the first time I had the privilege of carrying a woman. She's not my girlfriend, she's not the woman in this village, she's a stranger I just met, she's kind, polite, and considerate, wants to walk with me and without hesitation asks me for help.


As I watched her from behind walking, I thought "is this the town lady, everything ?."


Perhaps in urban life the closeness of women and men is common. That's why he didn't feel anything else when he was still on my back earlier.


"Enjoy it, my heart rushes. Calling him "Hindu, wait !."


"That road was rather fast. From behind it continues. Eden, actually I want to swim only the sun is hot. How about a little afternoon ?."


"From Missing. Want to swim now or afternoon, Eden, can !. But the sun is really hot. We better go home first. My parents told me not to leave for long. It's we've been gone a long time, miss."


Here's the path I got history with him. Although I don't know exactly what history is like. The wind came back to us, drying out the sweat that was pouring on our bodies. The more he raised his hand to sweat on his face, the more I saw flowers blooming on his cheek.


Not like most women. Ical told me that I would regret not seeing him. Now I really know the meaning of the word Ical. His face was reddish, his skin was not even blackened due to the scorching sun. Blushing like lipstick on the lips, I was lucky to be with her today.


From the front, where did the voice call come from ?. I was still carried away by dreams in the middle of the room, a dream that I rarely found until Miss reprimanded me.


"Eden, someone called" and threw a stone at me, hitting my head.


"What_, what ?."


"You why ? someone called." Firmly me.


My mother was walking towards us. Getting closer to us, my mother seemed angry at me.


Sure enough, my mother was angry.


"You, Mamah has told me to go home quickly and even linger. What you guys made there. Remember Eden, the woman was a guest and she was the son of the man. Why did you take him for a walk until it lingered so long ?. Next time Mamah won't allow you to accompany her."


Finally at home. I got mad at Mamah. Let !.
