After what happened this afternoon, I really didn't think. How could this cruel fate be on me. If allowed, I want to rewrite my destiny. I flinched from my daydream. I shouldn't have gotten into this situation. Even if this is my destiny, I must accept it. Although I really wanted to reject it. Damnit damnit! The worms in my stomach are already protesting. It's only natural that I'm hungry at this hour. I haven't eaten anything since this morning. I only drank a can of milk at the airport earlier. After that, no food entered my mouth.
I went to the kitchen to find something I could eat right now. Expect to find leftovers in the refrigerator or a piece of bread on the dining table. But none of me met.
"No more food, right?" I asked Mbok Wati.
A domestic assistant who has been with our family for a long time. We even considered her a part of our own family.
"Waduh mbak, I happen to be abis. Mbok just cooked a little. I guess you haven't come home yet. It turned out to be back." Mbok.
"Hmmm. You haven't eaten yet? It's just eating rations mbok. Mommy ate that." Connect Mbok.
Actually, he hasn't had dinner yet. But he offered me his food. I don't have that much of a hand on this middle-aged woman.
"Not to mbok. I'm just looking for food outside." My reply.
I immediately picked up my jacket, glasses, and wallet.
I'm actually the type of person who doesn't really like wearing glasses even though my eyes are in trouble right now. I only wear it at certain times. Like now for example.
"Then please tell the house people if I go out for a while to eat."
"Ready man."
I say goodbye and go out to the gate. I paused on the street right after I closed the gate. Where am I going to find food? And I decided to go to the intersection of this housing complex. There is a seller Sate Padang our family subscription. Instead of me having to go all the way to the city center, this whole thing is already night.
I walk down the streets that are still quite crowded at this hour. There are still many vehicles passing by. Sometimes I kick the pebbles that are scattered in the street. The occasional night wind tickled my nape.
"Mang, the satellite dong sepsi." I told Mang Adi.
"Sip, sit down first."
It's not so crowded here. Only about five shoppers sat in a long table. Suddenly a pair of hands closed my eyes without warning from behind. Spontaneously I was surprised, who was the nosy guy who did this. My mood's not good to joke with right now. I tried to let go of that nosy hand. But, his strength is too strong. So it feels free.
"Good night." His whisper slowly in my ear.
I was silent for a moment. It was like I knew this voice. The sound is characteristic to be heavy and a little hoarse. I can guess this is a man's voice. The man who has always filled my days. That crazy guy, he is. You guys must know who I mean.
"Sister Sendy?"
Then he immediately removed his hand from my face. I squinted both of my eyes. It felt like after being overwhelmed by darkness just now, not a single light could penetrate my sense of sight. Even the light of the light bulb that had been hanging from earlier felt piercingly sharp. I closed my eyes for a moment then, wearing the glasses I had taken off in the middle of the road earlier.
"Lo why?" Ask the man.
He looked worried, I could feel it. He seemed to feel guilty for his actions just now after seeing me not okay.
"Not really." I said that I didn't want to prolong the problem.
"But you were..."
"That's nothing to think about."
I immediately cut out his sentence. Then try to convince her that I'm okay while patting her cheek softly.
"Eh, btw next week there will be peach. Do you follow me?" Said Brother Sendy.
"What rambling?"
"Become for the inauguration of the Marching members of the 10th generation band."
"Oh, hopefully I'll follow. Follower brother?"
"Yes obviously dong."
I just smiled in response to her answer just now.
"Emmm, Brother. The eighth generation brother. I'm class nine. Means when brother ends later, we can't practice together like dong first." My welcome.
He looked silent for a moment. The look on his face that had seemed excited, somber instantly.
"Emmm, you know what, brother?"
"You what?"
"Continue what? Keep love?"
"We met in the Marching band. And we're also going to split up in Marching band."
"It's also the concept of sha."
"From what I used to be too obsessed with brother. To the point that almost all seniors hate to squirm at me. I was chasing big brother too much. Until I'm impressed cheap."
"Lo is not cheap sha. Only at that time, the cave had not stretched backwards. The cave doesn't squirm if there's a leaf following the wind."
"I want something, brother."
"What?"
"I am this brother?"
The man was pecking. Silence mute a thousand languages. His mind was hit hard.
"I didn't expect much, brother. Maybe I'll stick around, not until when. Maybe until my heart is tired. Although sometimes I still hope even if not considered."
"Don't say sha, lo it's everything for the cave."
"The man quickly changed. Today you are everything, tomorrow you are who."
"Not all humans are the same as you might imagine."
"But, no human being is consistent. Especially the taste."
"There's."
"Who?"
"That guy lo. Lo is the most consistent person the cave has ever met in cave life."
"Bad wrong. I'm the biggest, craziest, and most ignorant person I've ever had in my sister's life."
"Do not keep making yourself fall sha. Don't make it look like you're guilty of this feeling."
"Emang right? I was wrong. I'm wrong to have fallen too deep."
"Lo's not wrong."
"Neng, the satay is ready." Mang Adi broke the debate between us.
"Oh yes Mang. This is the money." I said while giving money.
"This is the change." Reply Mang Adi."
I hurried to stand up from my seat, then approached Mang Adi who was standing next to his cart.
"Mang, here's the change for one more serving for the guy who sat it. The black shirt. Tell me this from Eresha. Okay Mang?" My whisper to Mang Adi.
"Who is neng? His girlfriend?" Ledek Mang Adi's.
"Mang's victory." My eagle.
"Temen what temen."
"Udah ah mang, long affair. Yaudah I want to go back first. Don't forget my order. Look out for the wrong people."
"Okay the sip is safe it's mah."
"Sip, I'm back. Look out for forgetting mang. Don't get the wrong people."
"Yes neng."
"Sir Sen, I'm back first. Drug." I said to Brother Sendy then immediately ran as fast as lightning.
