Hate Is Love's
Mission Commences
After a long journey, Dayana finally arrived at the location where she was a volunteer. All volunteers finally arrived at Tampaure Village which is in Bambaira sub-district, Pasangkayu district, West Sulawesi. Their arrival was welcomed by the village officials. They have prepared a place to stay for volunteers who will stay for a full month.
Residents who also welcomed the arrival of volunteers immediately took them to the prepared house. It was already night when they arrived. And immediately welcome to rest, rest the body.
Travel across the island, still to be connected with a road trip that takes hours to make Dayana's body feel tired. The girl went into the house that had been prepared for her and several other female volunteers. In this house there are three rooms, and each room will be inhabited by two people.
Dayana put her suitcase near the bed. In this room there are only two cots with cotton mattresses, a small table and a mirror. There are no cabinets or other furniture in it. The door of the room only uses curtains. Dayana sat down on the side of the couch. In front of him, Lastri, health volunteers also sit down.
“Gerah yes, Ay,” said Lastri.
“Iya, mba.”
Lastri and Dayana came out of the room when someone called their names. A middle-aged woman who lent her home to live in came with three pieces of mosquito repellent in her hands.
“It made in room, let no mosquito. Sorry it was like this.”
“Thank you, ma'am. Alhamdulillah, already want to provide a place for us to stay,” replied Lastri while taking mosquito repellent.
“Already on a meal?”
“Already, bu.”
“Tomorrow morning, breakfast will be delivered here.”
“Thank you mom.”
“Please rest.”
The owner of the house came out of the house. Dayana and the others returned to their rooms. Lastri put a mosquito repellent in the corner of the room. He picked up his towel, prepared to clean himself. There was only one bathroom in this house, so they had to use it interchangeably.
While waiting for her turn to take a shower, Dayana picks up her phone. It turns out that the signal is hard to reach here. The cell phone signal only shows the letter E. Dayana breathed a long breath. He put the phone back on the bed, then laid the body with his legs dangling on the floor.
Dayana started to daydream. He recalled his conversation with Rena. Irzal's grandmother gave him many tips on how to conquer doctor Rafa. According to Rena, her best friend, Dimas was also like Rafa. Can't move on from his dead wife. But now Dimas is living happily with his new wife who is 20 years different from him.
Hearing the story of Dimas, Dayana's spirit to conquer Rafa again flared. He just needs to be patient and carry out all the directions given by Rena. He was grateful to have the right mentor.
You have to be yourself. Set your speed when approaching Rafa. Sometimes fast, and know when to back off. Just like kite, pull. If he looks uncomfortable, back off first just back forward. If he gets used to your presence, you disappear once in a while. So that he knows the meaning of your presence.
That is the advice given by Rena before Dayana bamitan go to carry out her duties as a volunteer. The girl kept remembering what Rena said to her. Pull the groove like a kite and be patient, that's the keyword for his approach.
🍁🍁🍁
In the morning, the owner prepared breakfast for everyone who stayed at his house. Only a simple breakfast that is usually eaten by local residents. In this house, other than Dayana and Lastri, there were still four other people. Sinta, who works the same as Lastri, a nurse. Vienna, he'll be teaching along with Dayana. Reni, a graduate of agricultural technology. He will help people improve their crops. And lastly Nilam, he is the doctor who will accompany Rafa to serve in the health center.
If Dayana is one room with Lastri, Sinta is one room with Vienna. And of course Nilam's one room with Reni. Nilam did not look so excited to enjoy his breakfast. The breakfast menu does not match his taste. Because they only provided sweet potatoes and boiled cassava and bitter tea.
While enjoying the boiled sweet potato, Dayana noticed Nilam who only ate a little boiled sweet potato. Nilam's face is in the category of beautiful, his shoulder-length hair in a ponytail, his skin is yellow and his body is also tall. And most interestingly Dayana, Nilam looks quite close to Rafa.
After gulping down his bitter tea, Nilam got up from his seat. He intends to meet Rafa at the house whose location is only blocked by vacant land. From the window, Dayana continued to notice Nilam who was walking closer and closer to the house occupied by male volunteers.
“Mba.. If the one who just came out was what was his name?” ask Dayana.
“That's doctor Nilam.”
“Ooh Nilam's. By the way have long been a nurse in Ibn Sina?”
“Udah is quite long. Five years more.”
“Long time too, yeah. Means know dong dong with doctor Daffa or Aqeel?”
“Kenal, but not too familiar too, just a glance. If I knew doctor Rafa better, who is on this job as well.”
Hearing this, Dayana was like a falling durian. He would gladly make Lastri his ally. The girl can get more information about Rafa from him.
“Doctor Rafa, widower huh?”
“Iya. Three years later his wife died. Poor, even though he loves his wife. Doctor Rafa is a friendly doctor. But after his wife died, he turned quiet and closed himself off from women who tried to approach him.”
“Many people have a crush on doctor Rafa?”
“Lumayan. One of them was Doctor Nilam. Among the doctors and sisters who like the same doctor Rafa, only he is resilient. He's his deketin pinter, and Rafa's doctor isn't aware that he's getting on again.”
Dayana's heart immediately heard it. Unexpectedly, it turned out that he had a heavy rival. Especially yesterday when on the trip, Nilam was seen chatting with Rafa. Unlike him, who seemed to be avoided by Rafa.
“Doctor Nilam beautiful, fit well if the same doctor Rafa,” really Dayana's speech is inversely proportional to the content of his heart.
“Beauty outside only. Dalemnya sometimes nyebelin and make people who work together he shortness of breath.”
“Masa?"
“People really perfectionist, if we do not admit a little mistake just immediately angry rich people possessed. My friend is the one who damping him if the task of practice. Must be mentally strong with him. But strangely many do not know his true nature, except those who work directly with him.”
“Oh so.. if so, it means the same name, Nilam alias Nini Lampir, hihihi.”
“There are you, Ay.”
No doubt Lastri joined in laughing at Dayana's babbling. The two became more familiar. Sinta who had just listened, also followed the drift. She who had only been a nurse for two years did not know anything about Nilam's nature. Because he also works in a different division with Lastri.
“By the way, doctor Nilam tuh, what doctor huh?” ask Dayana.
“Astricter.”
In the middle of the conversation, enter Ati, the owner of the house. He intended to clean up the furniture used for breakfast.
“Not leaving for?”
“A minute, bu.”
Ati immediately picked up the dirty glasses. While yam and singong stews are left, left alone. Who knows if anyone wants to eat it. He brought dirty glasses to the kitchen to wash. The woman came back soon.
“What do you want to eat later?”
“Anything, ma'am,” replied Lastri.
“Like fish no?”
“Like, bu.”
“Let's mom cook smoked fish for you. Mother go first, do not forget to be killed by her tv if you want to go.”
All who listen to Ati's words are just dumbfounded. But Ati who felt there was nothing wrong with his words, immediately came out of the house.
“Kill means his tv matiin times, yes,” terka Reni.
“His power, mba. Serem yes, his tv was told to be killed,” Dayana giggled amusedly.
Shortly after Ati left, Nilam returned. He asked the others to prepare immediately, especially Lastri and Sinta. They will soon be going to the Puskesma. Dayana and Vienna are also preparing to go to school, while Reni will head to the village hall first. After turning off the television, everyone came out of the house.
Mata Dayana immediately collides with Rafa when their views meet. Rafa quickly turned his gaze in the other direction. Nilam approached Rafa and walked with the man. Dayana and Vienna followed the group. But in the junction, they had to turn left. The school where they teach is not as close as the puskesmas.
🍁🍁🍁
“Wah many are also provided,” said Sinta.
“Iya. If the food does not match our tongue. Can cook this.”
“Ay, make the pudding taste good.”
“Bby.. can.”.
Dayana took three packs of instant pudding, she took mango-flavored pudding. Quickly he and Sinta made the pudding. Fortunately, they do not need to add sugar anymore because all ingredients are ready to cook. While waiting for the pudding to mature, Sinta searched for a container that could be used to hold the pudding.
“Pake this is all, Ay?” Vienna showed two square-shaped plastic containers.
Seeing Dayana's nod, Vienna immediately cleaned the container. After wiping it using a tissue, Dayana immediately spilled the pudding into the two containers. Then he made fla.
“Honey no fridge.”
“At home bu RT kanya deh.”
“Simple ride of pudding can be times, yes.”
“Bby kali.”
The two girls brought the pudding that had reduced the heat to the house of RT ma'am. The house of the chairman of the neighboring house is only three houses. With friendly RT bu let Dayana save the pudding. The woman even served cold drinks to the two beautiful girls.
“Bu.. if here someone sells ice cubes?”
“There. That's Mr. Wazir selling ice cubes. His house is on the other side. There is also a stall, usually Mr. Wazir selling fruit from his garden.”
“Wah later in the afternoon we can make a cold drink,” chirped Dayana and be taken happily by Vienna.
Smile on Dayana's face. He would make a cold drink for Rafa upon the man's return from the puskesmas. From the stomach up to the heart, this is the first plan that Dayana will run.
🍁🍁🍁
Carrying a container of mixed ice, Dayana walked towards the house of the male volunteers. Beside him, Vienna took the. In his hand was also a container of pudding. Don't forget he brought the fla.
Seeing the arrival of Dayan and Vienna that were not empty-handed, of course these men were happy. They immediately took a glass and a small plate for the pudding. Dayana put her homemade mixed ice into the glass, she also cut the pudding and added it with fla. His eyes went around looking for Rafa's whereabouts.
“Which Rafa doctor?” ask Dayana.
“Tadi hell again next to home.”
With a glass and a plate of pudding in her hand, Dayana stood up and headed to the side of the house she had been shown. Sure enough, Rafa was sitting looking at the trees whose leaves were moving in the afternoon breeze. The girl placed the glasses and dishes in her hands near Rafa. Keep the man awake from his daydream.
“Cobain mas, ice mix with my pudding.”
No response from Rafa. The man's eyes only saw the glasses and dishes nearby. Seeing Rafa's reaction, Dayana said again,
“Don't geer first, mas. I brought you not just for Rafa, but for everyone here. I'm just helping bring you here.Good to enjoy. If you don't like it, throw your love to chicken.”
After saying that, Dayana stood up from her seat and entered the house. He joined Vienna, mixing and chatting with male volunteers. Rafa continued to look at Dayana who was caught from the open window. The girl was laughing, I don't know what made her laugh.
Rafa's hand moved to pick up the glass, then tried Dayana's ice mix. It seems pretty good. He then tried the pudding that had been given fla. It tastes good too. Accompanied by the breeze, Rafa spends both dishes made by Dayana.
Just as Rafa finished his ice mixture, Nilam came and sat down next to the man. Nilam's gaze was immediately fixed on the empty glasses and plates near Rafa. Seeing the remnants of the fla on the plate, Nilam realized that Dayana had sent food here. Suddenly Nilam's feeling was bad. Her instinct as a woman says that Dayana also has feelings for Rafa.
“Dok. about pregnant women that I checked. I suspect she has a heart problem. I told the mother to come back to the puskesmas tomorrow. Can the doctor help you check?”
“Can.”
“Thank you in advance.”
“Sama-sama.”
“This must be from Aya,” Patchouli pointed to the used glasses and plates beside Rafa.
“Iya.”
“Doctor know him?”
“Iya. I used to operate on opanya.”
“Ooh.. is he still in college or already working?”
“Have passed. Richly he filled the time to volunteer while waiting for his S2 lecture start.”
Nilam just nodded his head. At a glance he saw Dayana from the window, the girl was still coolly chatting with the others once in a while her laughter sounded. Since the beginning of seeing Dayana, Nilam did not like it. Especially when he saw Ravin leave the girl to Rafa.
“Pampered child like him can it be strong to stay here for a month? How can I not be sure,” muttered Nilam, but can still be heard by Rafa.
“Do not under estimate someone. Because what is seen from the outside is not necessarily the same as the one inside.”
After saying those words, Rafa got up from his seat and went into the house carrying dirty glasses and dishes. Arriving inside the house, Rafa continued walking towards the kitchen. From the kitchen, he heard the voices of people talking.
“Win, I want to make props to help kids understand more about English. But find the material where ya?”
“Must go to city times, yes.”
“Beuuh.. far.”
“Iya, anyway. His name is also in remote areas.”
“How difficult the signal is also.”
“Near the bridge is quite the signal. I was trying.”
“Masa? I'll try to go there later. To the bridge of love uh signal hehehe.”.
Both of them were surprised when Rafa came with dirty dishes and glasses. Dayana as much as possible does not care about the arrival of Rafa. He just kept washing dirty dishes and glasses.
“Eh doctor Rafa. How nice not doc, mixed ice?”
“Enak.”
“That's Aya loh who made.”
“Enak, sweetness fitting.”
“The rich sweet that makes yes, doc.”
Rafa just threw a faint smile. Then he immediately came out of the kitchen. In Dayana's heart was annoyed to see Rafa who seemed indifferent to her. But he tries to be patient. There will be time for Rafa to catch up with him. Hopefully, aamiin.
