Love (Not) Owned

Love (Not) Owned
Longs



In a few minutes the plane that took me will fly away from my hometown, the city of memories and the city where I met him.


Seeing a stronger mother seeing my second departure I was embarrassed why I was the nicer one here.


My departure this time is only between Abah and Mother because my other brother has his busy life considering today is not a weekend.


During the trip to Jakarta, the shadow of Malik and Mom always circled in my head.


Firstly, she is a simple but special woman who gives her love for me until this moment even this is one of the dreams of Mother having a child with a higher education solely because of science for the good of the afterlife.


Second, the first man I ever loved after Abah but destroyed my dream at the beginning of my sweet school days but I still accepted it back.


___________


"assalamualaikum shof, how are you there healthy right, take care of your health, do not eat late" said my dear woman


That's how my mother was always excited when calling, full of consecutive sentences like my missus that almost a month did not meet her.


"waalaikumussalam Bu, Alhamdulillah shofie healthy, yes shofie not late to eat bu always on time, there is always ingetin every time"


"yes I know, such a mother is afraid you will be sick, sorry yes mother can not go there, Abahmu is still busy with your outlet, the more days the more fans"


"Alhamdulillah ma'am no papa, the most important mother is Abah all healthy, mom doain your son continues here yes ma'am, I always seem to miss mom"


"mom always doain children mother, let alone you, hopefully cepet finished yes"


"yes ma'am"


"shof, yesterday Malik came here looking for you"


"what do you keep saying ?"


"mother said you're out of town to continue your S2's "


"but I didn't say I was in Jakarta ?"


"no, I didn't say, but I'm sorry to see her shof, I can't bear to cover it up again "


"mother there will be a time when she understands, I do this also for the sake of mother so that mother is proud of the shofie, the science that shofie can God willing will be useful for many people"


"yes, I know, thank you, oiya was a message he said the profit of the store this month forty-five million has been transferred to you yes and for your tuition fee also Abah who transferred all of you earlier"


"lohh kok shofi sent money si ma'am, tuition money kan shofie is already available and the profit of the booth should hold abah only, mother equally not like this dong"


"no papa it is your right, in the money tube you manor you want to open a business again or add the outlet right "


" mmm thank you my mother Dahlia"


"yes you've rested yes mother also wants to sleep, assalamualaikum "


"iya bu waalaikumussalam "

Elsewhere Malik is always riled up and unfocused at work, his mind is gutted at the living shofie leaving without telling after they met and that was the last time for Malik to see him.


The help asked his mother to ask the parents shofie also the result is nil.


A full month Malik did not concentrate on his work, as a result his father helped him in the office.


Shofie who knows the state of Malik now feels unbearable, deep in his heart wants to give news but something else whispers do not.

The second month was in a big city for me to get used to the hustle and bustle of Jakarta today.


Missing Mom, somehow these few days Mom always danced in my head and tumben once I have no call as usual.


No matter the time I took the HP lying on my bed, I immediately pressed the video call to treat my passionate miss.


For a long time my call was answered until the voice of the operator spoke, or because it was night but my sense of longing beat the time, I pressed the call once again.


"Assalamualaikum shof" greetings mother while coughing


"waalaikumussalam ma'am, is mom sick?"


"just cough, my mom gapapa, sorry, I didn't call you, you must be looking?"


"it's mom, shofie kangen, Friday's Saturday mom I'm empty, and I think I want to go home"


"don't shof, use the time you make a break and finish your studies as soon as possible" pause mom and I saw her eyes condense "son, sorry mom yesterday I told Malik's mom where you are now, I can't bear to see the child of such a person, pity him, because you don't tell him his work is not necessary until his father intervenes, his work he many shof not here alone, just, she was also careless, whose heart the mother could see her child like that"


My real mother is like that but I don't know on what basis I can be like this.


"well mommy later shofie call her back yes, mom is in good health ya entar shofie so worried if you see mom sick like this"


"yes mother must be healed quickly, he said he misses you son but ashamed to see you he said"


Mom smiled at the man she loved.


"mother yes, you are in good health praying for your son here assalamualaikum"


It turns out that my heart really knows about Mom, she must miss her son here.

Another shofie is Mom.


Mother this week has a fever and cough, which Abah worries about lately because of her declining health.


Abah himself has promised not to tell me about his health for fear of my thoughts but the name of the child already has an inner bond.


If one feels pain the other feels the same way.


My other sister agreed not to tell me about Mom.


And about Malik let it be later if he calls me then I'll explain.

At the stop now I am now, waiting for the transportation that will take me to the state campus in Jakarta.


Intentionally not bring a car here because it is my own desire let me bother taking public transportation or online motorcycle taxi because I believe Abah needs it more to go to the booth and other business.


tin tin tin tin


The sound of the Pajero sport car horn surprised me who had been staring at the sky.


The glass of the car in the car opened up before being able to see the person in the car was the bus I was waiting for came without heeding any more I immediately walked quickly up to the bus.


I was in the Graduate building with a slightly reduced agenda.


Seeing a fellow post who came with a partner even brought a child for me considering my age is no longer a teenager, can be said to have deserved children ehh husband first yes hihihi


"would you like to go to college gini in a partner meeting ?" the baritone voice surprised me right away I answered without seeing the person "yes, unsaturated and more excited"


A second later my head clutched to find the source of the sound behind me.


"You, since when was there ?"
