It sucks when the plane carrying the Sabda family must transit first at Soekarno Hatta airport. And just left for Banjarmasin at five in the afternoon.
Due to the time difference, they reached Banjarmasin at eight p.m. Their journey is still so long because after getting off the plane they have to return by road for approximately two hours to arrive in Tabalong district.
While waiting in line to pick up the luggage, Sabda seemed busy contacting someone. He is trying to contact the office that takes care of the travel section provided for employees who bring family.
After getting certainty, Sabda finally led them to enter a fast food restaurant. "We eat first, they ask us to wait, about forty minutes."
"For so long?" salma Mumbles.
"Yes, they have not prepared travel because I also miss impromptu. Should have been before we flew to Banjarmasin, I've contacted the office to ask for travel."
"Can't we travel directly?"
The word shakes firmly. "No way, darling! Let's eat first!" take the Word after standing in front of a fast food restaurant.
"Dad I don't want to eat. I want a burger."
"okay."
They enter the restaurant, Sabda takes a line, letting the two women wait for him. There is heavy rain pouring down on the city of Banjarmasin. It looks like rainwater fell was already from earlier.Fortunately the plane they were riding could land perfectly.
"Ody, take this anti-nausea medicine again! We're still about two hours away by car!"
"It must be exhausting."
"Yes, really. I'm tired too, mother especially." Reply to the Word while glancing at Salma. He watches the way Salma enjoys dinner. "eat a lot to be fat!" ask for the Word, which was immediately answered by Salma.
Right after dinner, the provided travel car arrived at the airport exit. Word immediately asked Salma and Aundy to get into the car to get home soon.
Along the way to Tabalong, the car that was boarded did not dare to go fast. Many puddles that fill the streets, making the driver must be good at driving his car. Not only that, heavy rain is still faithfully flushed throughout their journey making the driver's visibility limited.
Salma and Sabda could not enjoy the journey, they were awake, just in case something happened. Unlike Aundy who immediately fell asleep after the car drove for about ten minutes.
As the car neared home, the flooding got worse. The word sitting beside Salma just smiled knot, as if telling—this is the city where he sought sustenance.
"It's dark, Mas" murmured Salma, looking around like a dead city long abandoned by its inhabitants.
"Maybe there's a part of the electrical transformer that's been hit by lightning so there's a light outage." Sabda explained briefly, it is not true what was wrong that he could clearly answer Salma's question. His hand trying to grab Salma's body took him into a hug. He tried to warm Salma's hands that felt so cold.
"Sorry, Sir. Which address is it?" The driver asked for details, breaking up their conversation.
"In the Panorama housing, sir. Jg. Edelweiss no 21." Sabda replied when the distance was close to the location of his house.
Unfortunately, the driver did not dare to enter the housing complex they occupied. Because the main street of the housing was filled with puddles of rain. "Is it far away, sir?" asked the driver, while stopping the speed of his car, he was observing the current situation on the road.
"Lumayan anyway, sir. About thirty meters into his alley."
"Wow, but the car didn't dare get in, sir. The water is pretty high."
"We've just got to get down here!" The word yield, better like this than to trouble the driver. Not too far away, they can walk while playing with rainwater.
After the car passed, Sabda intended to bring Aundy home first. And asked Salma to wait. "I'll find an umbrella first" said Sabda. "don't go anywhere! You're afraid you're lost!"
"Yes, but not for long."
"Yes." Yeah." Sabda was already carrying Aundy on his back, preparing to hit the rain that was still falling quite profusely.
As for Salma, she was actually waiting for the Word to return. This long journey will never be forgotten by Salma. Impressive welcome, flooding, lights off. Even so, he wished he could stay at home here, with Sabda and Aundy.
Waiting for ten minutes, the shadow of the Word's body had already reappeared in front of Salma. The man came with an umbrella that had been laid out.
Just as Salma was about to pull the suitcase, Sabda immediately restrained her arm. "You're walking enough!" Sabda asked Salma to walk first. "be careful!" message the Word as Salma's steps fall in a deep hole.
"It's been careful, basically it's a naughty hole following me!"
The word only restrained his laughter, he himself had enough trouble lifting two suitcases filled with goods Aundy and Salma.
"It will never be forgotten, my friend!"
"Hm, I wish you were here!"
"certainly. As long as you're not naughty I'll feel at home!" reply Salma, while wailing the streets so as not to go into a deeper hole. Until finally, they arrived at the color house tosca. A new house a few weeks ago was bought by Sabda.
"Alhamdulillah has arrived" said Sabda while opening the door. Let Salma come in first.
"Where's the idiot?"
"There's in the front room."
Salma then approached the room designated by Sabda. "Where do we sleep?" Salma protest saw that the bed that Aundy occupied was only enough for one person.
"We're behind, but I haven't done it yet. The bed is old, but the bed is new!" Sabda turned on the cell phone flashlight, leading Salma to walk even deeper, passing through the living room to get to the room he meant.
The light from the Sabda mobile phone is capable of emitting rays up to the corner of space. The room is simple, but wider because there is a bathroom in it. First impression, Salma really liked the arrangement of the room.
"I take a shower, and then let me make the bed."
Although Salma nodded, she did not let that happen. Seeing that Sabda had entered the bathroom, his hands began to actively unpack the suitcase. Luckily the contents of his suitcase were not wet, so he intended to change clothes and bed sheets first.
Just as Sabda came out of the bathroom. The bed is ready to be occupied. The man just shook his head to see how Salma was reckless doing the work. He knew Salma had not fully recovered, he just wanted to keep Salma healthy.
"Sleep, Yuk! Tomorrow I have to declare leave."
Salma said, without saying much, she laid her body beside the Word. All night they slept without any illumination. But it does not reduce the quality of sleep both of them.
He woke up when he heard the alarm on his phone ringing. He walked towards the kitchen preparing a makeshift breakfast, just a loaf of bread that Bu Deva supplied to Aundy, then sprinkled with chocolate messes that were also given by Bu Deva.
Once ready, Sabda immediately prepared to leave. "Darling, I'll go first, okay?" The whisper of the Word, trying to wake Salma up.
"What time's it?" Salma asked as she rubbed her still sticky eyes.
"At ten o'clock at the most. Breakfast was first. When I get home, we'll shop."
"Hm ...."
"Sleep, I'm leaving!" Pamit Sabda then landed a brief kiss on Salma's lips.
"Not wearing a uniform?" Salma protested after successfully opening her eyes wide.
"Yes, I stopped by the mess to get a uniform! Just got on the bus from there."
"Yes be careful." Salma told her before the man passed from her room.
Sabda took out his motor from the house, heated up the engine first, while waiting for the engine to heat up, he opened the gate of his house.
The matic motorbike was already outside the fence, now he was closing the gate of the house. Just as Sabda was about to get on the motorbike, someone shouted his name.
"Astaghfirullah, so this is really Mas Sabda!" The woman standing next to Sabda's motorbike was strangled with excitement, as well as being shocked to see Sabda being a neighbor of his house.
Sabda tried to remember the figure of the woman beside him. It seemed that he did not remember the woman at all. "I'm in a hurry, so sorry!" Said Sabda rejecting subtly as the female figure was about to speak to him.
