I Want to Be Loved
New Mobile Phone
Aura chose to stand by the kitchen door watching the two men who were eating voraciously. Aura swallowed her own saliva looking at the way Ciko and Gavindra ate. The two men looked like they had not eaten for several days. Though the food he cooked can be said to be simple food.
"How many days have they not eaten?" inner Aura.
Aura held back her laughter seeing Gavindra and Ciko's piquancy. Seen from the sweat as big as corn kernels running down their faces.
"You want a drink?" tawar Aura's.
Because the mouth is full Gavindra and Ciko respond to the words of Aura with a nod of the head. Aura took the drinking water in the refrigerator and gave it to Gavindra and Ciko.
Unexpected soto who is in case for a portion of five people runs out in an instant. Aura felt happy and felt funny.
"How many days have you not eaten?" aura taunting.
Gavindra squinted sharply at Aura, making Aura put on a foolish face by showing her rows of teeth.
"The food is not good!" Gavindra.
"It's not good to run out two bowls. Not good bowl," ledek Ciko.
"It's not good" chuckled Gavindra.
"Good food like this you say is bad. I think your tongue has a problem," sneered Ciko.
"Why do you bother" said Gavindra.
Gavindra woke up and turned to Aura, the man asked Aura to cook another menu tomorrow.
"Say you ask me to be sure again with Aura. Very prestigious." Ciko shook her head as she laughed feeling funny with her best friend's attitude.
"So I passed the exam today?" aura asked with great expectations.
"Ya jel—" Ciko hasn't finished talking but was cut by Gavindra.
"Obviously not. That's why tomorrow you have to come here again" said Gavindra.
"Tomorrow?" ask Aura.
"Yes, why? Going backwards? Go ahead" said Gavindra.
"No! I've taken a step forward as to why I should back off," Aura replied.
"Then why do you seem to mind coming back here tomorrow?" ask Gavindra.
"Tomorrow I go to school, the day I have to work, and the night I go to the hospital to look after my mother" explained Aura.
"School?" Ciko looked confused.
"I'm still in the twelfth grade," explained Aura.
"What?" Gavindra and Ciko were surprised to hear Aura's explanation.
"God! I'm getting married to a boy" Gavindra said, rubbing her face.
Gavindra and Ciko should be surprised they think Aura is a mature girl because it has thoughts like a mature woman. Not to mention his tall posture.
"How old are you?" ask Gavindra.
"Seventeen years," Aura replied.
Gavindra could no longer contain her surprise. If he marries Aura, many will call him a pedophile.
"Why? Is something wrong?" asked Aura so innocently.
"Ya jel—" Gavindra's remarks were cut by Ciko.
"Nothing wrong, is it?" cut Ciko.
"What not, hmmp—" Ciko silenced Gavindra's mouth so as not to speak any further. "Aura, today your test is done. Tomorrow I'll call you again for the next test" Ciko was greeted with a nod of the head by Aura.
"Ck, what are you saying?" Gavindra spoke in a whisper.
"It's quiet first" said Ciko. "At the same time this little boy is pretty good, too" added Ciko.
Gavindra let out a rough breath, not knowing what Ciko was planning.
"But his age is —" Gavindra's remarks were cut by Ciko.
"Care is the same age. You are only 10 years different. It's not much different either" said Ciko. "Try now imagine! What if your parents match you with a much older woman?" ciko.
Gavindra was silent digesting Ciko's words which were actually unreasonable. But there was no better girl than Aura whom he had met before.
Meanwhile Aura stood with a frown watching the two adult men who were talking whispering.
"What are they really talking about?" inner Aura.
Aura did not care about what Ciko and Gavindra planned, which she cared about at that time was to make a large amount of money in a short period of time. For her mother's recovery, Aura was willing to do anything including sacrifice her pride.
Aura took her bag and left from that place. However, Gavindra called out to him making Aura's stride come to a halt.
"Hey, wait!" prevent Gavindra.
"What's wrong?" Aura turned to look towards Gavindra.
"Remember my phone number on your phone" Gavindra told me.
"For what?" ask Aura.
"So I can contact you easily. What else is it for" replied Gavindra. "Not ask too many questions! Where's your phone," Gavindra's.
Aura seemed very hesitant to pull out her phone. He hugged his bag tightly.
"Why silence! Where's your phone!" has Gavindra.
"Anu .. this .. anu .. that." The aura looked very agitated.
"What the hell? This anu it? Speak clearly!" get Gavindra. "Give me your phone!" Gavindra's orders.
Aura reached into her bag, after which she gave the thing she had taken from inside the bag.
"It." Aura gave her phone to Gavindra.
"That's a cell phone" Aura replied.
"What age's the phone?" Gavindra flipped through the object that Aura referred to as a cell phone.
Indeed it's an old phone that can only call and send messages Short massage service. Gavindra was clearly alien to that thing. Since childhood, Gavindra has always used sophisticated technological items.
"That's all I have" Aura said with a lowered face.
"Throw away. Buy a new one, one that's nicer and more sophisticated," Gavindra said.
"I can only afford a phone like that. I bought that thing also by collecting pocket money for two months" said Aura.
"Ck, really complicated?" Guiltless Gavindra threw away Aura's cell phone trash can.
"Hey, why was it dumped." Aura was surprised to see Gavindra throw away her phone.
Gavindra did not respond to any of Aura's words. The man got up from the dining table and went to his room. Not long after Gavindra returned after changing clothes.
"Let's come!" Gavindra pulled Aura's hand leading her out of the place.
"Where are you going?" ask Aura.
"Once, come along. Don't ask too many questions" said Gavindra.
Gavindra continued walking while pulling Aura carrying the little girl to the baseman.
"Lake in!" Gavindra tells Aura to get into her car.
"Where are you taking me?" ask Aura again.
"Ck, you're so chatty. Already in! I won't mess with you either" said Gavindra.
Aura gets into the car following Gavindra. Due to feeling awkward Aura sat on the back passenger bench.
Gavindra who was wearing a seatbelt saw Aura who was sitting in the back. He was upset because of that.
"Why are you sitting there? Do you think I'm your driver?" sulcan Gavindra.
"Oh, wrong?" said Aura innocently.
"Yes it's wrong! Quickly move sit here!" Gavindra patted the passenger seat next to her.
"Yes, yeah. Why are you getting angry all the time" Aura grumbled.
After Aura changed seats, Gavindra ran her iron chariot. They drove around the city. The atmosphere is still hot even though the time has shown at four in the afternoon.
Aura sat in silence, not knowing where Gavindra would take her away.
"Had arrived! Downhill!" get Gavindra.
"D-yes." Aura took off the seatbelt that wrapped around her body and came out following Gavindra.
Aura standing beside the car looked around with a puzzled face.
"Come, hurry!" Gavindra.
"D-yes." A small running aura approached Gavindra.
After that both went to that place which turned out to be a gadget store. Aura was puzzled as to why Gavindra had brought her to such a place. Not knowing what to do in that place Aura walked after Gavindra like a chick following its mother.
"Why stand up? Sit here!" Gavindra told Aura to sit next to her.
"Yes." Yeah." Aura sat down while looking around.
The shop is huge. Aura can see many devices with various models.
"Select which one?" ask Gavindra.
"choose what?" aura asked confusedly.
"Of course choose the phone. I threw away your phone, didn't I? So I'll replace it" replied Gavindra.
"Oh." Mangosteen aura.
After that Aura took a look at the mobile phone that was in front of her. Obviously, all of this is not cheap.
"Do you know which one you want to choose?" ask Gavindra.
Aura shook her head then pulled on Gavindra's arm gesturing for the man to come closer.
"What's wrong?" ask Gavindra.
"We'll just look elsewhere. It seems very expensive here. I wouldn't be able to afford it "Aura spoke in a whisper so no one else would hear it.
Gavindra patted her own forehead, confused by the innocence of the girl beside her.
"Pick what you like. I'll pay for it" said Gavindra.
"But I don't know when I can return the money to buy this thing" Aura said.
"God! Are you innocent or stupid? I bought you a cell phone. You don't need to replace it" Gavindra explained.
Gavindra clucked, she felt regret asking Aura.
"Mba, ask for the latest model phone here yes," Gavindra told me.
"Well, sir," said the store clerk.
The store clerk showed me several phones of different colors and those. Gavindra would not repeat her mistake by asking Aura. One of the phones from the famous brand Gavindra choose. After the phone can be used Gavindra enter the number to the phone.
"This is for you! You don't need to replace it" Gavindra said.
"Forku?" Aura received the device that Gavindra gave with a feeling of doubt. His whole life was only then someone gave expensive items for him. "Are you sure you gave this to me?" ask Aura.
"Confident! This is so that I can easily find your whereabouts," said Gavindra. "Oh yes, but remember. You can't keep another man's number on this phone" Gavindra said.
Eh?
