JIWO PROMISE

Sudden Call

Stop in the tiny yard of a tiny house but look clean and cool because of the flower pots that hang along the lips of the terrace. The small size pots that the length of the rope is made wavy even memorable like a curtain. Beautifully viewed.

"Welcome to my contract" Witri said before exiting the car.

Just when Jiwo's feet stepped on the ground, his eyes that were not separated from the door of the house that had been opened could catch the presence of Witri's mamak who stared full of novelty towards Jiwo. Even Witri who was kissing the back of her hand seemed a little neglected.

Jiwo commented on his genuine smile. For some reason, every time he saw Mamak Witri, he immediately remembered his mother. When he saw his mother, the same person would appear in his head.

"Assalamualaikum, Bulik." said Jiwo with a happy smile and extended his hand.

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat...Oh Allah, I didn't think you were here, Le .." said Mamak, half hugging Jiwo who was smiling happily.

"Thank God there's still a chance, Bulik. I can see Bulik again. How are you, Bulik? Always healthy, right?" jiwo asked while following Mamak's steps who had not yet released his hand grip on Jiwo's arm.

Witri stared a little astonished at Mamak's treatment of Jiwo. As he remembered before, with Hari only Mamak did not apply that close.

"Let's sit down first" Mamak said as he directed Jiwo's body to sit on the chair he chose. Jiwo happily complied.

Ah really, Jiwo's heart is happy not to be upset to get this warm welcome. The happiness he felt with his encounter with Witri alone still filled his heart. Coupled with a welcome that is equally fun by his mother Witri. His happiness was piled up in his heart.

"I didn't live, papa did I? No hunting home, right? You want to take a shower" said Witri in front of the connecting door to the inner room.

"Monggo if you want to take a shower first. Let it be quiet to talk later." Jiwo said with a smile.

"Please bring out the drink first, Wit. Mamak just made a drink for us." pinta Mamak without moving from front Jiwo. Witri rushed into the kitchen and already found three glasses of sweet tea that still billowed the smoke. It means the possibility when he came earlier Mamak was making this drink and then rushed forward to welcome Jiwo's arrival.

"Let's drink first." said Mamak kindly while lowering the glass from the tray to front Jiwo.

"Thank you, Kid." Jiwo replied happily.

Witri rushed inside to take a bath. Just shed the sweat that sticks to his body to get freshness.

After wearing a more relaxed and loose clothes, Witri returned to meet Jiwo and Mamak who seemed cool talking.

"By the way, yeah?" guess Witri was suspicious as she sat down next to Mamak.

"No. Mamak nanya about her mother Jiwo aja." replied Mamak with a smile.

"It was yesterday to meet snow is not fitting in Japan." continued Mamak shy.

"Meet?" witri asked while looking at Jiwo.

"No." Jiwo replied with a smile. "Morning of spring there." he continued.

"If the winter is in December to February usually yes? Not really?" tanya Witri was not sure.

"Rubber." replied Jiwo with a smile.

The three spend twilight with more interrogating Jiwo about everything about Japan because Jiwo has gone there several times.

Until the adzan magrib reverberated from the mosque at the end of the alley of Witri's house.

"I went to the mosque first ya." pamit Jiwo as soon as Adzan finished reverberating.

Mamak and Witri themselves choose to congregate at home only.

"She came here to meet you on purpose?" mamak asked with a curious look as they prepared dinner after the magrib prayer. Jiwo himself has not returned from the mosque.

"I don't know. He was waiting for me in front of the office. Said the security guard had been waiting a long time ago." replied Witri relaxed.

Mamak was silent again even though Witri knew he was harboring a conjecture. But Witri doesn't think about it much.

"The boy apologized about the past. About the phone number he used to not have time to get to you because it was burned by the symbol." said Mamak again.

Witri nodded not caring much. That was long gone. All are only part of the destiny that they have to live and all have passed properly. According to Witri.

Jiwo pamit came home after following Mamak's desire to enjoy Mamak cuisine dinner and dinner after fitting when adzan isya' reverberate.

"Thank you very much, Bulik, I've been well received and warm. Good thing my house is far away." Jiwo held back his smile. " If my house is close, I would like to come here every day for a ride to eat." continued Jiwo who got a soft pat on his arm by Mamak who chuckled.

Witri sees a weirdness here. Why can Mamak be so warm and so accepting of Jiwo with open arms? It was as if there were no barriers between the two.

Was that all you did as a 'redemption from sin' in the past on Jiwo? According to Witri, it is also not necessary.

it's all over. And each has found his own destiny.

The night ended with Witri reading a short message from Jiwo who informed him that he had reached the hotel where he was staying and then said good-bye to him. Witri only replied to him briefly, thank you. There's no tail of anything.

...🍁🍁🍁🍁...

Jiwo repeatedly turned to the side where his phone he put on a pillow next to his head. Half an hour has passed from Witri's short answer and he still hopes there will be more messages coming after the message reads thanks from Witri earlier.

"True short message." muttered Jiwo while grimacing. He buried his face on the pillow as if there was Witri's face there. Fulfill the view in his mind.

Today's meeting was clearly far from his expectations.

At first he thought his reunion with Witri would be colored with a blue day of moved cries or a red hue blushed in shame, or even a blue heart because it was not heeded by his arrival.

But what he had met was the atmosphere of 'welcome' which was very comfortable since the beginning of the meeting although of course his heart was still tight-fisted and confused about how Gana next.

But all the things he was worried about didn't happen in the least.

His meeting with Mamak even immediately gave him an answer to what happened so many years ago why there was no news from Witri. Mamak even apologized for making all the reality after that making it difficult for Jiwo and Witri.

One thing that really means a lot today for Jiwo is, he has managed to signal to Mamak about his feelings for Witri has not changed. And he's sure Mamak's up to it.

If only it was appropriate, he wanted to directly propose to Witri earlier...But he wouldn't be that crazy either, would he?

At least he has returned to maturity (speaking, fine Javanese) on Mamak earlier if later he will return to approach Witri. And Mama didn't show her objection. He only said that later it was up to how the results of Jiwo approached Witri only. My mother would not forbid. He only requested that in his plan Jiwo still remember and appreciate the existence of the late Hari and also his family. And Jiwo certainly agrees with that.

Tomorrow morning Jiwo plans to come to Witri's house early in the morning to be able to pick up and take Witri to work.

But unfortunately the plan that he was thinking in the head had to fall apart because of an email from a company that had just entered.

Edan, email work at this hour...

And Jiwo's head immediately frowned when reading the contents of the email asking him to go to the office tomorrow morning.

"What the fuck is this?!" exclaimed Jiwo in disbelief while staring annoyed at his phone.

"I should enjoy my holiday bonus!" grunts Jiwo with an incredulous face.

Rushing he replied to the email by saying that he was in Aceh in order to enjoy his holiday bonus.

Soon the phone sounded. There's a Martin name.

"Hallo.." said Jiwo. There was a faint sound from Martin.

"Lu got a call to the office too, Wo? Lemes is the voice.." asked Martin guess.

"Yes. How the hell? He said he got a holiday bonus. I'm far from home." lamented Jiwo annoyed.

"Even! I just entered the house this afternoon. Jrit emang!" martin was upset.

"You homecoming?" jiwo asked as he sat up after tracing his waist beside the bed.

"Yes. You're going home too?" ask Martin.

"No. I just arrived in Aceh this afternoon." replied Jiwo lirih.

"WHAT?? Why are you playing so far away?! Do you know how to go home?" ledek Martin's.

"Tomorrow how are we? You have to go to the office?" jiwo asked confusedly.

"Yes! Big boss who calls. But knowing we were far away, he wanted to see us in the afternoon. He said he was waiting for us. So as soon as you step on the airport foot, go straight to your office" Martin said with his bossy.

"Kok you know?" ask Jiwo astonishment.

"Gue calls you while chatting with Mr. Boss." replied Martin while giggling.

"Wait on! Who wants to see us, Boss Demian? Kirain Big Boss." said Jiwo slightly relieved.

"The Big Boss guy! So I consult with Mr. Boss how about the condition we kek gini.Pak Boss kept nego as his assistant Big Boss, so we have to be in the office tomorrow afternoon." explained Martin.

The deg!

Big Boss why would you want to meet them? He is a person who cannot be met by just anyone. Even employees who have worked in the office for years are not necessarily able to meet him.

"We made a big mistake yesterday, Tin?" jiwo asked with a curious and worried voice.

"So ah! You know we're a big success ourselves. That is why the three of us are given the bonus of three days off which was finally circumcised! Tomorrow I have to sue for compensation for this canceled holiday bonus!" martin's murmuring.

"Eh, betewe, what are you doing in Aceh?" tanya Martin started kepo after they hahahihi happy because they just got a ticket from the company to return to Jakarta tomorrow.

"There is a need." replied Jiwo secretive.

"Your proposal huh?" guess Martin.

"No. Meet someone." replied Jiwo while smiling.

"Your girl?" guess Martin was enthusiastic.

"Cryption! You're sleeping! I have to wake up tomorrow morning. Hye!" jiwo immediately hung up the phone call.

Instead of keeping his eyes closed, Jiwo even more agitated. All the plans here broke up this sudden call.

"Why gini siiih?" muttered Jiwo annoyed while randomly shuffling his hair.

He saw his watch. Eleven o'clock more nights. Witri may have gone to sleep.

Tomorrow he has to leave early in the morning for the airport. Cook, he went.

After weighing for a while, Jiwo finally typed a few words for Witri. It's okay not to read it right away. At least he didn't go.

It felt like he had fallen asleep for a moment. But the vibration of the phone next to his head woke him up.

Squinting his eyes, Jiwo stared at the screen of his phone. And his waking face was instantly refreshed as soon as he saw a reply from Witri for his message last night.

📩 Hope: well, though Mamak want to ngundang you make breakfast lhoh 😄 But yes already gpp...name is also a task..welcome back to the real world if so...😄 thanks for taking the time to meet me and Mamak...🙏

Jiwo rushes to get up for dawn prayers then half hastily leaves his room to head to a place at dawn that has not yet raised the sun.

He had to go there before he left Aceh.
