JiHan (Promise and Betrayal)

Wearied

Alice who had finished giving her report chose to return to her shophouse.

"Where are you going?" Galih asked as she passed Alice right in front of the girl's room. Alice carried a bag and was about to leave.

"I'm going home.. Don't I have a day off." Say the girl and walk again.

"I'll drive you." Galih and Alice just kept quiet and kept going. Galih was also just silent and did not talk as much as usual. The man had no idea what had happened to the girl.

"Something happened?" Tanya Galih finally decided to ask Alice directly when they got into her car.

"Yes.." Alice's words were brief.

"It's so bad?" Ask Galih again as he is about to start his car.

"Very bad." He said and chose to look out the window. The noticing calamity could only glance at Alice at a glance and bring her car splitting the lonely blind morning streets.

"You hungry? What do you want to eat?" Tanya Galih removes the loneliness between them.

"Find me a round wedang." Alice's words were brief.

"Huh? Ah.. Oh well." Juna said and chose to drive his car around the direction to the city square A, it seems like in the middle of the road like that there will be people selling on the side of the road.

Although it was two in the morning, he was sure that one of the stalls or maybe the roadside seller was still open.

"Ah.. Meet." He said when he saw a small kiosk with the word wedang ronde beside the ojeg base. The man parked his car not far from the kiosk and got out of his car.

Some men were gathering to drink a warm drink while occasionally joking while waiting for passengers or maybe just rest and warm himself.

"Sir.. Wedang rondenya three in the wrap." Galih said to the old man of the seller who looked a little sleepy. Galih then chose to sit on that wooden chair while waiting.

"It's den.." Said the merchant after a while making his order and handed him the clear plastic package.

"This sir thank you." Say it and hand over the money and get the hell out of there.

"Den.. The return." Said the old man when he was about to hand over the change.

"No need sir." He said politely and walked back to his car.

"This is the order." Galih said and kept the plastic package beside her chair and drove back to her car splitting the road to Alice's house.

"Thank you." Alice San looked back at the street.

"only this? Don't want any other food?" Ask Galih again when they have entered the highway.

"No.. Wake me up when I get there." Said Alice and closed her eyes.

Galih nodded and refocused herself onto the street towards Alice's house, though she would occasionally glance at Alice who was already soundly asleep.

Not how long they had arrived in front of Alice's shophouse. The man wanted to wake Alice up but he had no heart.

"I.." He said, but there was no word from the owner.

Galih took the initiative to take the urn in Alice's bag and took a wedang round and went upstairs to the girl's house. Galih opened the door wide and then kept the round wedang on the table then opened the door of the girl's room wide and lit the light and propped the door open so that it was wide open as well as the door outward.

Galih went back downstairs and opened his car door wide. The man opened the seat belt that wrapped around Alice's body and carried her to the top floor. The man walked up the stairs slowly and then walked into Alice's room and placed the girl right on the bed.

Galih went back downstairs and grabbed and locked his car and went back upstairs to close the door of the girl's house. Galih went back to Alice's room to open the girl's high heels and placed them right next to the bed and enveloped Alice and turned on her air conditioner.

"You really don't wake up." Say the man and turn on the sleeping lights and turn off the main lights of the room. Dig out of Alice's room and choose to keep the warm drink in the refrigerator.

Galih decided to stay there and chose to lock the door. Then lay her body on the sofa with her cushioning hands and position the slanted sleep by curling her body.

***

A few hours later Anton arrives right in front of Alice's shophouse. The man wanted to see Alice from a distance even if it was just the girl's house. But he was a little stunned when he saw the yellow sports car parked in front of the girl's house.

"I couldn't even see you when I got right in front of you." His voice was monotonous while standing right under the stairs of the girl's house.

A few minutes later, just sitting under the stairs and looking at the door, Anton decided to get back in his car to go home. However, the man had to talk to his parents and make sure all his weddings were canceled by his parents.

"Paul's.. We're going to the main house." He said and then looked at the streets that began to be crowded even though this was still at 04 am.

"Good sir." He said and then drove his car to the main house of Hadi Jaya.

At 5 o'clock they arrived at the main house of Hadi Jaya. A servant opened the door quickly and let his young master in.

"Prepare a room for her." Anton said to the servant to prepare Paul's room and rest.

"No need sir, I can go home to my place." He refused a little unpleasant.

"You didn't rest tonight, you must be tired. Go to bed and rest for a while." Anton said and then left the place.

Paul would not obey his master's orders.

"Please pass by here, sir." Say the waiter and show the way to Paul's room.

Anton walked towards his room and then laid down his already tired body. His body and psychologically were completely tired. However, the man still loves Alice very much and is a little disturbed when he finds out the person he loves is with other men. And even more painful he could not forbid or comment on anything because at this time he was nobody but the enemy of the girl.

"I can't hug you even accompany you. And now someone's replacing me to accompany you." He said while exhaling his breath rough.

"Am I being too selfish to want you not to be with another man even if you can't be with me?" He said monotonously and closed his eyes with his elbows. Anton gradually went to bed and welcomed his dream. He hopes in the dream he can meet and return with his lover.

Seriate....
