Love At A Dusk

Something different

June 2014, 08.00

The orange red tinge ended Monday that Anggi missed. He did not go to school since morning, Anggi re-read his book until the time had changed short.

It is not easy for Anggi to restore his sanity to normal again. Usually he forgets everything just by remembering Fika, he never felt complicated even though he only lived it unilaterally. No matter how Fika feels about her, she doesn't want to know about it. It was enough to greet Fika and secretly watch her.

But today is different. Anggi became silent, it was actually a sign that if his mind was not okay, there was a burden that made him return silent a thousand languages.

Anggi has tidied up some of his school clothes, rearranging them neatly in the closet.

Tok.dok...

"Great master has come home!"

The voice from behind the bedroom door told him, but Anggi's expression immediately changed because it usually took a whole week for his father not to come home. This time it's different.

Anggi was very curious about the arrival of his father. He hurriedly looked at himself behind the mirror and immediately went to another room.

When he held his head up and shared his view something unusual made his mind guess. There was a woman and a boy, he was no stranger to Anggi because during his time at school Anggi must have met him.

Anggi did not comment at the time, sitting in the remaining seats in the living room, being polite as his father always taught him when there were important guests coming.

From earlier Anggi just lowered his head, really acting as if he did not know Edo who was sitting next to the woman.

"He's my son. Still class XI High School." His father introduced Anggi.

When listening to those words thrown from his father's mouth, Anggi had already guessed how close the father was to the woman Yanga da in front of him, the way he spoke that showed that they were very familiar.

"She's so handsome, you must have raised her with great dignity." Answer the woman.

From earlier Edo continued to look towards Anggi, but like what Anggi did at that time, Edo also did not dare to chat even though he was the most familiar with Anggi at school.

"He's the same age as Edo, can I know where he went to school? I'm very curious." The conversation continues. Anggi began to understand from the conversation of the two, they only knew each other but not with his life.

"My son happens to go to high school.... He's so excited about school there." Answer Anggi's father.

Seeming to listen to something surprising, the woman in front of Anggi was immediately shocked in shock. "Gosh, you went to school there too, didn't you, Edo?"

Edo just nodded his head without saying anything, he actually became quiet and cold when he knew his mother had a male acquaintance and was none other than the father of Anggi, his schoolmate.

"Do you know each other?" Anggi's father tried to guess. He also saw his son starting to see him upset.

"I can't recognize you, but I come to school very often." Edo's mother's words looked awkward.

"Thank God if you know each other, it's better that way." Anggi's father seemed happier.

"My son is going to change schools in half a semester, I plan to send him abroad. He was a little bored and asked me to go to school there." His words seem to make up stories. Though who wants to change schools, it's just his own father's agreement and I don't know what his father was thinking by making a plan that makes no sense.

"Of course your son is great too. If allowed by his mother does Edo also want to go to school with Anggi?" Ask his father makes Anggi can only be upset while squeezing part of the clothes he wears. Of course why is it that easy to let someone else come in and be part of his family.

Anggi could not take it anymore, he had to leave and reason from the chat that was only for the two people.

"Ep... I'm leaving, ma'am. I have a practice class with my friends now." Edo looked friendly.

His mother immediately reacted strangely, she did not accept that the brief introduction would quickly end.

"You want to go now? Can I just drop you off?" The bargain for Edo.

Anggi remained silent and allowed Edo himself to end the unwanted encounter.

"No need! I mean thank you. I can be delivered by Mom, right?" Answer Edo.

His mother seemed to want to talk pleasantries but Edo had completely ended the meeting.

"It's a pity but it looks like I have to leave right now. Thanks for the banquet." Awkwardly speech.

"Well, it's a pity that I wanted to tell you long enough. But be careful on the road." Said Anggi's father who finally agreed to let them go immediately.

"We will meet again." His words again made a happy reaction from the face of his mother Edo.

******

The dining table is quite luxurious for some families there. But there was only Anggi and his father.

Anggi was still silent from earlier, he also did not touch his food in the slightest. On the other hand his father looked ravenous eating every dish on that table. But soon, his eyes looked towards Anggi who was still silent.

His father sighed, it was not easy for him to understand a son that even he had never spent much time with him all this time.

"Are you not used to the food? Dad asked the best cooks and I liked them." His father told Anggi.

Although he really does not like it for anything, but Anggi still try to always keep his attitude in order to always be polite. Including not leaving the dining table first even though he was not tasteful at all.

"I don't like it, there's very little I know about the food." Answer Anggi. His tone was still the same from earlier even whenever Anggi spoke to his father he must have spoken in the same tone.

"Try it! I always ate it first when I lived here." Persuade father.

Anggi does not refuse to start reaching forks and spoons, moving food on a plate, and try it.

"That part you like the most, it's very crunchy and smudges in your mouth." His father explained what he used to eat.

But since Anggi doesn't talk so much there's no more chatter from the two. Anggi still remained silent to turn back the food that he did not eat at all.

"Dad went to bed first, dad was full of food." His father's words immediately made Anggi leave also from the dining table.
