"Oh good dong then, enter me." said I.

Not long after, the grandfather also followed who had just come.They also, directly entered the house.As for me and Riki masik coolly chatted on the front porch.

Not long after that, my mother called me and Riki to eat together in the dining room.I and Riki went straight in and joined my family who were preparing to eat.It so happens that my mother also cooked fish shady there was still left over this morning.

We also enjoyed the dinner menu today, which was mostly food brought by Riki earlier.

In the morning, Rafi had already picked me up to accompany her on her list to the City to attend the police school.

The time needed to get there, about 3 hours more.Because my village is located on the coast.When if I have to go to the city, I have to travel a distance that is not short.

During the trip, we also did a lot of snoring about a lot of things.So we do not feel too tired with a trip far enough.

About half an hour, heading to his registration.Rafi also invited me to eat first.

"Great seal, I feel my ass hurts.." she said.

"Especially you are carrying a motorbike, not your ass is a pain, but your hands must also be sore." I reply.

Rafi stretched out her hand,

"Why?" ask me.

"And like you said, my hands are sore.Can you massage for a moment," he said.

I immediately smiled and grabbed her hand and began to massage her lightly.

"It's very safe," he said.

"I'm not that smart to massage."

"I will definitely miss the moments with you like this" he said.

"Don't talk like that, dong, I feel guilty about having to go." I said.

Rafi was silent and just looked at me.I could feel the sadness from her eyes.But, I pin wanted to pursue my desire to make my parents happy.

"I hope, even though later we are far apart.Beither me or you, we can both keep our feelings" he continued.

"Yes.." I said slowly.

♧ ♧ ♧ ♧ ♧

After resting for about 30 minutes, the two of us immediately resumed our journey.

Finally we arrived at the registration place, I also chose to wait in the parking lot while holding Rafi's bag.

About 2 hours, I was waiting.Until Rafi finally came, I was surprised because she walked towards me with my classmate Pandi.

"Eh Pandi is also the same well, register too?" ask me.

"Yes......"

"I don't know, if it turns out Rafi came here with you." he continued.

"Yes....."

"Where?" ask me.

"Later on the 11th, next week Pandi and I will take the test, but not here" he said.

"Continue where dong?" ask me.

"In Bandung......."

"So how? You want to follow him?" ask me back.

"Yes how else, that's the closest thing.There is also in Semarang....."

"Enak yah, who has a girlfriend there is support" said Pandi.

Rafi and I both smiled.

♧ ♧ ♧ ♧ ♧

After parting ways with Pandi, Rafi and I intend to go straight home for fear of staying on the road.

"What if I don't pass the test?" ask her.

"It's okay.." I'll reply.

"You've tried, but you can also take another alternative by going to college." I continued.

"But that's your wish, for me to enter the police."

"Indeed you have no desires and ideals.I don't want to, you make me an excuse, if you have any other desires I'm okay.I will still support you." I explained.

I could see him smiling from the rearview mirror.

We both finally arrived right beside my house.I had invited him to stop by, but he instead answered to go straight home.

Because indeed, we both arrived at exactly 8 pm at home.Tadi when on the road, we had time to rest because of the rain.

I went straight into the house, apparently my mother and grandmother were hanging TV in the living room.While my father was asleep right in front of his room.While grandfather, he was still in the mosque as usual.

I also immediately gave the fruit of the hand that was bought by Rafi earlier.It just so happened while waiting for the rain to subside,we saw a sweet martabak handyman.So he immediately bought some to take home and gave me some.

Mother immediately took a plate and woke up the father who was asleep.As we enjoyed his martab, it turns out that grandfather also came with my cousin.The son of my uncle whose house is close to the mosque.

"Eh what a coincidence,ayo grandfather here.This was Rafi buyin this.." invite me.

"This is Yunita.." take me to my 4.5-year-old cousin.

He sat on my lap and I immediately took a piece of martabak for him.We also enjoyed his hammer together while looking at TV.

"Will we stay over?" ask me.

"No, I'll say he'll pick me up." he said.

"Yes, he was crying, forcing to come here with grandfather." continued the grandfather.

"Well, at aunt's house tonight." take me.

"So, if you come here, aunt asks for permission." reply.

In the morning, I woke up with my neighbor's son who was playing at home.

I got out of my bed and approached her on the front porch.

"Eh Naima has woken up too, surely the same awakening Atta yah?" ask aunt Nuni.

"Not also bi, again it's already 8." I reply.

"Oh yeah, where's my mom? How come auntie's here alone?" ask me.

"So your mother drove your grandmother and grandfather first, she said she was afraid there was nothing on the road.Most soon also go home," explained the aunt.

"Oh that,"

"Yes, for a while well I want to wash my face first.Then I just woke up at this hour," said I.

I went straight to the pool that I used to take a shower and everything like washing dishes, washing clothes and so on.

Because it is in my village, it is still rare to have a bathroom in the house.Most of us use the water in the pool to use together.

For example, the pool that I use now, it is used by several houses.Kor approximately 4 houses that are close to my house.
