From Dinta

From Dinta

Before I got in I saw Dad's car was not there, I breathed heavily I felt tired with all the circumstances. I went in and I saw Bi Nani, my housekeeper, cleaning up the broken pieces of the flower vase that used to be on the table.


"Biantem again Bi?" I asked Bi Nani.


"Already, Dinta just rest." Said Bi Nani.


"Where are you?" ask me.


"There's in his room" he replied.


"Dad?"


"Father is gone again" he said.


I've guessed it always happens at that time, if the car father is not there and the time has been the most mallem they fight.


I walked to my room and changed my clothes with a blank look and cleaned up and decided to go to sleep, feeling really tired of having to live in a house like hell.


I took my phone. At that time I already have a cellphone even though the quality is far from the cellphone now. I typed something to send to Bang Deris who was studying at the state campus in Bandung.


📩"Bang Deris cepetan go home, Dinta cape here alone with the state of the cake gini"


Then I threw my phone to my bedside and decided to sleep without doing anything else.

I'm ready for breakfast this morning, I don't seem to have come home since last night. I was sitting across from my mother who was chewing her breakfast in the morning while looking at her work files.


"For Din" he said.


"Mah's morning" I replied. Those are the only words every morning that I can hear from my mother the rest of my mother is busy with her work.


"Biiiii, please bring me my watch in my room I forgot" my mother half-cried to Bi Nani.


A few minutes' delay.


"This is Ma'am" Bi Nani said.


"Thank you Bi, dear love, mamah depart well, you be careful. Departing with Arkan, right?" Ask and I nod.


"Judah if so, well first" he said rubbing my head and leaving without my consent.


I exhaled my long breath and then immediately paid Bi Nani a farewell and went to wait for Arkan ahead.


"Come on" he said who had come up with his RX-King which was a little noisy but it was indeed his trademark.


The motor is traveling at a speed that is splitting the streets of Jakarta in the morning. Many people will work on the streets too.


As usual, Arkan's motorbike went into the parking lot with me always down in the parking lot. Every day Arkan always dropped me off in the parking lot and then walked with him to class.


We walked through the corridor together then casually Arkan passed his class just like that. Arkan was so he was too sweet to be my best friend at that time, because every morning he would drive me to the front of the class even though the class itself was located before my class.


"Truly learning" he said after arriving in front of my class. That's how it used to be.


"Yes" I replied.


"See you at the break" he said, waving his hand and leaving after seeing me smile and nodding.

All of them rushed out to the cafeteria including me and Niana my female best friend and partner sat me in all the weather.


"Din the hunt" he said.


"Let's take it, come on" I said and we headed to the cafeteria.


Arriving at the cafeteria I always looked up at the table in the corner that Arkan and his friends often occupied but that day I did not find Arkan there.


Where are the kids. My inner


"You want what pesen?" Ask Niana.


"Ordinary, clear sauce meatballs" I replied and Niana immediately went to order.


I looked back at the table in Arkan but Arkan was not there and it happened that Reno was about to leave the cafeteria.


"Renooo" called me and Reno came up to me.


"Why Din?" Ask.


"Where are you?" My toot.


"He was allowed to go home" he replied.


"Well? Wh why? It hurt?"


"Oh that. SMS by Din"


"Yes. Thanks Ren" I said


"Oke Din, I'm first well" he said and I nodded then he left and then Niana came with food.


"What kind of abbess is Reno?" Ask Niana.


"I'm nanyain Arkan" I replied.


"Why the Arkan?"


"Yes gakpp but tumben aja he did not nyamperin ask for ordinary cake snacks. Turns out he's been allowed to go home."


"Well? Wh why? It hurt?"


"Not yet" I replied


"Judah ate" said Niana.

At school, I went out the gate to find ojeg or whatever could take me home. At first I was going home with Niana but she had a sudden lesson.


Arriving outside the gate I saw Arkan had stayed on his bike in a casual t-shirt but still wearing gray pants and carrying his bag.


"Arkan" said I approached him


"Let's go home" he said.


"Yes" I answered and got on the bike.


"Where are you from? Reno said you're a permit. Why?" I asked on the bike.


"Later the story. Stop by the stalls, I'm a laper"


"Yes" I answered


And we stopped in front of a street-side grocery store and Arkan ordered two servings.


"Bang two, that one meatball" the message and the meatball order were for me.


We sat there waiting for the meatballs we ordered to arrive.


"So you why Permission?" My toot.


"Gkpp" answered.


"Times?"


"Yes" answered.


"Lied" I said.


"No"


"Yes, why permission?"


"Again wish" he replied while teasing me.


"That's why permission? What's up?"


"Love ya, seriously there is nothing" he replied.


"You want to be naughty again?"


"Don't you, I just went out for a while. It's important that you go home with me. I anterin don't have to spend money on the fare" he said casually but it irritates me right now.


"Do you say that? I can go home by myself, and I have money for that without the need to pick you up again. All this time you've been losing me every day?" My toot.


2 bowls of basok came in front of me.


"Yes that's not what Dinta means, and I'm wrong. I don't mean worry about that..."


"I just want to know where you were, that's it, I'm worried about my own best friend. You yourself say if there is nothing do not dipendem alone.but instead say the others, you count your gas money how much for one more year, less on Sunday, you count, I'll change it later" I said.


"Aduuuhhhh Dinta is not that it is even gini. No. That's Dintaaa yaudah I obviously become ta...."


"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter that I want to go home" I said and left.


"Dina... Dengerin used to hey" he said but I didn't care when I was really irritated by him. I stopped the car and went home by myself.
