I MISS A SIMPLICITY

part 22's

For the second time this semester, my two best friends and I skipped college on purpose. But the difference is who takes the initiative. If the two of them forced me to ditch, now I whine to have them both accompany me. And of course the place we used to laze around this time was Kiki's boarding house.

"Well, we both have you here, now your story!" said Doni when the three of us had gathered at the 'lobby' Kiki boarding house.

"Yes I told you." I sighed for a moment and continued my words.

"So gini.." I then recounted my conversation with Diah semalem.

Hello," greet me by phone.

"Hello.." he replied slowly. Very slowly. Then a moment's silence.

"How are you? Busy now?" ask me to try to melt the atmosphere.

"Hehe, rame restaurant. Sorry yes." he replied. Still with a weak intonation. Unlike Diah who is usually always excited. Maybe I should start the conversation.

"You why Di? Any issues?" ask me directly.

"Hiks.." His voice sounded like he was crying.

"Here, why you, baby? Tell me if there's a problem."

"I'm sorry..."

"Sorry why?"

"Hiks...Hix...I-i..."

"Why?"

"I. can not refuse the will of the Father.hiks..."

"What will?" ask me again with anxiety.

"I-i..dioohin."

'JEDUAAAR'

Everything feels so cold. My mind was suddenly empty. My head was hit by a hard object, dizzy. We went back to silence for a while. The communication that I hoped could kill this kangen taste actually ended with bad news.

You accepted?"

"I can't refuse, sorry. Unless you." he said disconnected.

"Except what? What can I do?"

"The proposal is later this year, I don't know how to go ahead yet, but before that happens, please meet the father, I beg you! hiks..hiks.." he asked sadly. My heart trembled at his request. I'm sorry I've been prejudiced against you all this time, my inner self.

"L-yes Di, don't cry anymore. There must be a way out. I'll definitely see you, before the end of the year I'll be home again, I promise."

"I-iya, thanks Ian, thanks for your efforts."

"Ga needs to thank Di, we should both fight right? And now I'm gonna fight for you. I-i promise. You calm down, everything will be fine."

"Thank you for diah, Diah dear Ian, dear."

"It's also very dear Diah, smile dong let sweet, hehe."

"Hehehe, you ugly son of a bitch." she replied with a small laugh.

"You're ugly, there's a problem that doesn't just say it's diem, weeek!"

"Diah ain't ugly, Diah pretty tauuu, weeek!" reply spoiled.

"Hahaha, yes Diah is beautiful, the most beautiful in the afterlife, hehehe."

"Rubber, weeek!"

"Hahaha, uh what are you again Di? don't you miss what am I?" ask me to relax. I'm trying to calm him down. Although I was actually very surprised by the news he gave me. But I need to calm down. I also have to mentally prepare myself to meet Diah's parents before the end of the year. That means less than two months.

Kangen know, are you missing? hihii."

"Kangen lah, you are hearty, hang my text for days," I said pretending to sulk.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, when I go home I give you a gift, hehe."

"Gift? what'sthat?" ask me curious.

"Peach me mentally first, hahaha. But relax, before the end of the year I'll definitely go home and see you."

"Yes, I'll wait, thank you, muach..."

"It really does!" my joke.

"Yes later, I love the buaaaaaaak, hihihi."

"Asiiik.." I'm excited. Like Tiara when she gets what she wants.

"Great glee, perverted base, hihihi.

"Wild, don't you like it?" challenge me to joke.

"Haha, I like it. Yes already, bobo yuk, it's already malem, tomorrow I go in the morning." he asked.

"Yeah yuk, I'm well rested," I replied.

"Dream me yes, hihihi."

"Wet dreams then?"

"Hiiih..Did if my dreams are always so? You're it..."

"Hehe."

"Yes, yes, and yes..."

"Daaa..."

The two of them were now staring at me with strange gazes.

"Do you see that?" ask me while taking a drink that Kiki provided.

"Mesum is also you, hahaha," commented Doni.

"But I went to Diah Doang" I replied.

"Hahaha, naturally bro his name is also man."

"After that, you guys are even out of the topic of conversation," Kiki cut. Doni just grinned.

"So you think I should meet Diah's father, right?"

"Whoa, should. Lo guys bro, you gotta fight. Do I need to be temenin?" tawar Doni's.

"I think so, too," Kiki added.

"Thank you, thank you for your support."

"Yes that's for his friends, sharing difficult or happy, is not Ki?"

"Y-yes, that's right," Kiki added.

I smiled at them both. The support and motivation of both of them was enough to make me even more confident to fight for Diah. Yeah, I have to go home again before the end of the year to see Diah's parents.

"When do you want to go home?" ask Kiki.

"No idea, before the end of the year for sure, but after the introduction of BEM."

"Introduction?" ask Doni.

"Yes, they call it that."

"On campus or?"

"Outside, I don't know exactly what the details of the time and place are" I explained.

"Owh..," Kiki replied briefly.

Today we spent just lazing around at the Kiki boarding house. Laughter accompanied our delinquents who skipped college just because of my turmoil. Gapapa, I thought once. Bad once. Hehe. Being naughty with a friend does not hurt.
