JODOHKU CLASSMATE

ESCAPING

Dana returns to the hostel after meeting Arin and chatting for a long time at another cafe. He put his body in the bed. Dana took a deep breath considering the incident she had just experienced.

It feels like his heart is back on the smile of Vishnu today. The heart he had long kept for her. First love.

Dana picked up the phone in her bag. He saw a message from Sad's brother.

Brother Sad You met Vishnu earlier? √√

^^^Where do you know?√√^^

Sis Sad He chatted me, Wisnu ngajak meet like before.√√

^^^Dana I don't know, √√^^

Brother Sad No taste yet?√√

^^^Fearful of awkwardness,√√^^^

Brother Sad I'll help you later.√√

^^^Dana Tersuh anyway, I ngikut aja kak, √√^^^

Sad Nah It dong. Okay, I'll set it up.√√

Dana's not sure if she'll make it with Vishnu's sister. There was a little fear in him that he did not know where the source was. Maybe he was afraid if brother Vishnu was just messing with him. Dana was afraid that the man would consider her nothing more than a sister. He was also afraid that Vishnu's brother would leave him as he once did.

Shortly after that, he fell asleep. Days with a normal life. Dana works as usual, several times also he met Arin to just unwind after work. Until the time Dana went back to her hometown.

Dana often takes 1 month to return to her hometown. Mama will nag if she is busy and can't go home to visit her. So, Dana decided to go home on Friday.

He will take care of the clothes he will bring tomorrow. Not much, maybe only 3 stells. He stuffed the clothes into a smaller suitcase than he carried last month.

Dana who is often traveling, deliberately to buy several suitcases with different sizes to make it easier to pack clothes.

Mom called while she was packing.

"Hallo ma?"

"Hello nduk, what are you doing?"

"Pack, I'll be home tomorrow afternoon ma. Dana didn't get a train ticket, so take the bus home." Dana said it in a clear tone.

"Have you bought the ticket?" my mom said behind the phone.

"Not yet, tomorrow morning to buy."

"Oh yes, don't buy. You go home just like Cloud nduk."

"Huh, what's the mama? don't want to!" Dana was very upset to hear my mother's words at the time. She thought my mother's words made no sense. How can a mother trust her daughter to a man she has only known for a few years.

"From the bus ride, mending you ride the car with the clouds, right?" my mother tried to persuade her son.

"Just don't want mama, mending Dana take the bus!"

"It's not safe, baby, have you come home with the clouds? call him later!"

Mama turned off her phone. Dana was still amazed to hear the words from her mother.

"Mom think if I go home the clouds will be safe? could you believe the same clouds? what's he using pellets to mama?" Dana grumbled.

Shortly after Mom hung up her phone, Dana got a call from someone she didn't know. That number calls him up to 2 times. Dana never answered the phone from a stranger. However, as she was distracted by her HP voice, Dana was forced to pick up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hello nduk, Assalamualaikum?" Dana was really shocked to hear a familiar voice from behind the phone. That's Aunt Hesti's voice. Dana, still in disbelief, opened the profile of the person across the phone.

Hesti Utami Puji's

That guy really is Aunt Hesti.

"Hello aunt, Waalaikumsalam." Said he was trying to be friendly with Aunt Hesti.

"Sir, tomorrow so go home?" said aunt Hesti excited.

"Oh, good that way, the clouds are going home tomorrow too. You went home with him, didn't you? make a cloud meeting on the road also let's not sleepy."

"Aunty, Dana doesn't feel good about Clouds, keep taking care of it later."

"No, no more than taking the bus, right? just riding in the car with the clouds. Will I be picked up by Awan?" said force.

"Dana wants to go to a friend's aunt, not good later Clouds come home later because stop by," Dana tried to find an excuse.

"No papa, it's just tomorrow afternoon at 5 Awan pick you up to the boarding house? Assalamualaikum," said aunt Hesti.

"Waalaikumsalam, hello auntie?" Dana's not done talking yet, Aunt Hesti has turned off her phone.

He was really upset about it. Dana doesn't understand why Aunt Hesti and mama are happy to make her tormented.

Today, Dana went to the office as usual. The woman left early in the morning so she could go home early.

"Today's coming home and?" ask Lita to her co-worker.

"Well, will Carica be brought back?"

"Hehe, you may," replied Lita excitedly. Dana often brings food to the office. Of all his office friends, he was the one who went home most often. It made his office friends very happy. If Dana goes home, then the food will be abundant in the office next Monday.

"Sister, I'll be home by 3, okay?" dana said to Lita.

"Loh, why is it? bus schedule early?" tanyanya astonishment. Dana used to use buses or trains that left after Maghrib.

"Yes" he said smiling.

"Yes, no papa." Dana was so glad to hear that. He deliberately went home early to have a reason to go home without the Clouds.

15.00 WIB

Dana got home from the office on time. He went straight to the kost. Dana immediately tidied up all her belongings and prepared to leave. Once ready, Dana quickly locked the boarding door and ran towards the front gate.

He was so happy to be home without the clouds. Bodo time if mom scolds him. He could reason if his work was completed early so it would be long if the cloud waited to pick him up. Reason enough to avoid returning home 1 car with Clouds.

Dana opened the boarding gate. How surprised he was to see the person who was ready to wait for him in front of the gate.

"What are you doing here?" Dana was still shocked to see the arrival of the Clouds.

"Feeling mama is never wrong," he spoke to his upperclassman as he folded his arms in front. The clouds smiled at him.

"Good!" the short word cloud.

"I want to take the bus, don't bother. Just tell your mama I'm gone."

Dana heard a vibrating HP sound. That's the sound of the Cloud's HP.

"Tell yourself to mama try?" The cloud shows the incoming phone on its HP. That's a phone call from Aunt Hesti.

Dana just sniffed at the annoyance she made.

"Hello ma?" the cloud on the phone. Aunt Hesti made a video call with the Clouds.

"Hello, is it the same Dana?" tanyanya.

"Here you go, this is your favorite daughter-in-law!" the word cloud took his words. He pointed his HP camera at his upperclassman.

"Hello baby, be careful on the road huh? The clouds can't speed later. No need to rush, if you sleepy just rest?" aunt Hesti said at length.

Dana just smiled hearing it.

"She's calm, safe."

"Well, ma? later, afternoon rush!" the short word cloud. Finally Dana was forced to comply to join Awan ride his car.

The clouds didn't help her with the suitcase. Fortunately the suitcase he was carrying was small enough that Dana had no trouble lifting it into the trunk of the car.
