I'm Tired, Love Me

Searching for Home

After I finished lunch with the rest of the family, I picked up the phone and iPad that Steve had lent me. I don't know what the name is, because Steve gave me this ipad in a sealed state, which is obviously a new ipad and I just borrowed it, only until my laptop came back.

I sat on the front porch of the house, looking at my phone whose screen had started to crack a lot. There were some messages there, from Arlo, Steve, and Retno.

I read Retno's message first,

From : Retno

‘Woyyyy jendes flowers, where to? Saying there's no news? Rhey are you healthy? Or crying again because of the lick? 😂’

‘Woy singles acute 🤭, I'm in a very very good condition, happy in fact, next I will play to Jakarta, see you there’ I reply to Retno's message and smile for myself.

From: Mas Arlo

‘Where are you Rhey? Why is the apartment empty? Sari is not here either. Your stuff is also not in the room.’

‘Sorry mas. Later when you are ready to meet I kasi mas Arlo ya news. If I still have a lot taken care of. I hope you can understand. Thank you for all the help mas.’ I replied without telling you where I was. I breathe heavily.

From : Steve

‘Rhey your laptop is done, but I can just drop off your laptop tomorrow afternoon, how?’

‘Okay Steve, I brought you an iPad with your jacket. Let's see you again where. Thank you.’ I think finally one-on-one problem will be solved soon.

After I finished replying to all the messages, I placed my phone on the table next to the chair I was sitting on. I switched on the ipad, typed in the search for a rented house, which was not too large, which was not too expensive, which was important that the environment was comfortable.

After finding some home candidates that I assessed, I have recorded and contacted the contact listed through the message. As I was waiting for a reply there was a message coming in from a number I did not know.

From 081331985***

‘Good afternoon Bu Rheyna, is it true that you are looking for a rented house? I happen to have a house that can be rented. If mom pleases, you can see now mom. Matur nuwun’ After reading the message, I immediately contacted the number listed.

“Hallo” after connection lifted.

“Hallo, good afternoon pak”

“Nggih Bu Rheyna” the father spoke politely

“Home area where yes sir?”

“West Surabaya area ma'am, if you'd like to see me send the address to ibu”

“For how much rent?” I immediately asked for the rent, because I was looking for a western home, far away from the people I knew.

“Mom just look at the place first, all of you will be discussed for the rental fee” the father was heard answering with a smile.

“Good sir, can you please infokan kesaya sir for the address?”

“Upload ma'am, can I send you the full address” soon

“Good sir, later around thirties yes sir I there”

“Good ma'am, mature nuwun”

“Sama-sama pak”

Not long after, the father sent a message containing the full address of the house he wanted to rent. I'm looking for Sari's mom to take her to see the house.

After we finished telling Mbak Sari to get ready, because in 30 minutes we have to leave immediately. I'll stop by the gold shop to sell some of my gold, and leave my mama's jewelry alone.

I went to the front of the house and took some pictures of my car for me to advertise in online buying and selling. After I finished taking the pictures, I immediately went inside the house, took a shower and got ready to leave.

Sari and I are leaving soon.

“Non, if you need money can use my money used to be non, I have but not much non” mbak Sari took out 100 thousand money from her bag and proffered to me, while I was driving.

“Hei mbak, what's the matter? Mbak simple money, it's hard work mbak Sari” I refuse help mbak Sari, because I can still afford to try alone.

“Gak pa pa non, if non more need me sincerely kok non” mbak Sari still forced to pour the money

“Don't ya mbak, later I. help mbak Sari open savings only, rather than mbak Sari carry around cash so, prone to low mbak” I divert the conversation.

“But if non need, do not hesitate to tell me yes non” mbak Sari re-insert the money in the bag. I replied with a smile to Mbak Sari.

Arriving at the jewelry store, I rushed straight out some jewelry, there were 3 necklace chains, 4 pendants, 3 rings, 2 bracelets. The total amount of money I earned from selling the jewelry was 36 million. I asked for the money to be transferred to my account, because I was afraid to bring cash that was not small in my opinion. After all the tansaksi were done, I rushed to leave the place.

We stopped at a minimalist house but it looked very luxurious. I saw the address back, the address corresponding to the one sent, I believe the money from the sale of my jewelry is only enough to rent for 1 year only.

There were fathers who came out of the house and opened the gate, approaching the car I parked in front of his house. He knocked on my car glass.

“Good afternoon, Miss Rheyna?” Ask the father is friendly. After I lowered my window.

“Iya sir, I am Rheyna” I replied with a fist, and greeted with the father and smiled.

“Please ma'am, I show you his home” the father is a little away from my car, give my cases to get out of the car.

“Good pak” I closed the window glass, shut off my machine.

“Ayo mbak Sari, hopefully this house is not as expensive as I think mbak” I opened my car door and followed by mbak Sari.

“Please bu” with your right hand outstretched like Jogja people who look polite, even though I am still much younger than this Mr. Sono.

I followed Mr. Sono, entered the living room, then there were 2 rooms opposite to each room had its own bathroom, which was, then entering the living room I was surprised by the back of the house that had a swimming pool. This house is only 1 floor but this house is very luxurious in my opinion, with a garage that can accommodate 3 cars. I shuddered in horror after imagining the price I would have to pay if I was really going to rent this house.

“Sorry sir Sono” I stopped step foot Mr. Sono.

“Upload ma'am, what's up?” Ask Mr. Sono who saw my doubtful face.

“Pak this house is full furniture, what is rented with this content also?” I turned my finger to describe this whole house.

“Nggih bu, it is complete with its contents” pak Sono nodded his head saying my words.

“Pak, how much does the rental cost?” I asked doubtfully.

“Please ma'am, we are talking in the living room, just”, Mr. Sono, invited us back to the living room, and sat down on the expensive-looking sofa.

“Sorry sir, seeing the facilities and condition of this house is very good, I am afraid my money is less pak” I said honestly to Mr. Sono, after we sat on the sofa.

“If you feel fit with this house, you can try to stay first for 1 month, later if you really feel at home just paid.” Mr. Sono explained.

“About how much does the rental cost?” I asked again with hesitation.

“How many mothers do you have? I follow the ability of mother only” answers that make me surprised.

“Lho sir so?” Ask wonder.

“Ya is like that should bu” with a smile. “May mother deign to rent it” continued Mr. Sono.

“But sir.”

“Mom can change all the keys if you feel worried bu” is still friendly, Mr. Sono explained. “But better mom try to stay here first before paying”

“Good sir, I tried to stay here first sir. When can I try sir?” I agreed to try first, as Sono sir suggested.

“As for mom, today can. Tomorrow too, ma'am. The key is to leave it to mom. I can look around the whole house again, to be more sure. I go home first, if there is something you want to ask, mom can contact me.” Mr. Sono said goodbye.

“Good sir, thank you for your time”

“Sama-sama bu” pak Sono out of the house, took out his car from the garage and passed away.

“Mbak how is this?” I asked Mbak Sari's opinion

“Tried once non, tau tau non fits here. The environment is very good this non, the house and contents are also complete. We no longer need to buy furniture non.” Mbak Sari gave an excuse based on his viewpoint.

“Iya also mbak, we just bring a suitcase of clothes yes mbak” I justify the words mbak Sari. “Ya already mbak, tomorrow only we start trying to stay here”

“Good non, ready to follow where aja wes” cananda mbak Sari.

After circling the house once again, Sari and I decided to go home, tomorrow morning we will start trying to stay here.
