Love Does Not Come Too Late

Welcome to Surabaya

About four hours more Lea and Erik were on a bus that took them to Indonesia's second largest city.

For four more hours, they both told each other and joked as if they had forgotten what had happened back there.

"You've told Nina that we've now reached the terminal?" Erik put together a pile of bags, suitcases and cardboard docked on the bench that Lea was sitting on.

Erik prefers to remain standing, while keeping an eye out for the bustle of visitors to the bus terminal during the day.

"I told you about it an hour ago before we got here." Lea was busy fanning her sweat away using the cardboard paper she found on the waiting room bench.

This big city is very hot, very far from the situation of the village which is still shaded hilly and many trees.

"Try to make sure again where he has arrived, not to say it otewe but still in the blanket ... old habit," Erik picked up while taking over the cardboard from Leah's hand, but still in the blanket, then helped fan his wife who was almost bathing in sweat.

Not waiting for long Lea's phone rang, the name Karenina appeared on the screen Lea mobile phone.

"Where?" Nina half yelled across there.

"I'm in the musholla nin deket where are you?, the big terminal ... the west north east south of it I don't know."

"Wait there don't go anywhere, let me just go there." Nina ended her phone call.

A yellow city car approached them. Nina exited the driver's side while shouting out her arms, "Leeaaaaaaak." Hearing a distinctive scream call out her name, Lea immediately got up to her friend half-runningly

"Nyinyoot." The two of them hugged each other and half-jumped regardless of the strange sight of the passing terminal visitor.

"Kangeeenn meu." Lea hugged Nina while slightly shaking her body.

"Halaaahh, dateng-dateng style bring husband, want to show off? You're not the same as me. Gebetan is not there yet, you have brought your husband here." Nina acted as a sewot while pushing Lea's body plan.

"Ohh yeah, I want to know my husband." Deliberately Lea emphasized the word husband to tease Nina.

"Honey .. here." Lea waved to Erik who was sitting guarding their goods, while observing two old friends who missed each other.

Being called dear by Lea made Erik a little nervous so he accidentally dropped some cardboard that had been arranged.

"This is Brother Erik my husband .. This is Nina my best friend sis." Lea introduces between Erik and Nina.

"Iyaa already know that there was also a school, I was also the one who was often sent greetings to you as Brother Erik." Nina ganged seductively.

Erik just nodded his head in a cold snob like he was at school, pretending to fix his glasses. Movement that becomes his habit when misbehaving.

"It's any acquaintance anymore, just a formality hihihi." Lea giggled at the style Erik had memorized.

"Yuk ah, it's really hot here, I'll take you to where you live while ya." Nina helps Lea and Erik put their things in her car.

Along the way, Lea was unceasingly amazed to see a row of multi-storey buildings and dense vehicles passing by.

Almost an hour from the direction of the entrance terminal through downtown Surabaya. They were in a densely populated settlement.

Seen houses clinging to each other, there were several groups of mothers gathered sitting while talking on the side of the road, and children who were running around chasing each other regardless of the vehicles passing beside them.

"Let's go down first, the goods will be last lowered. You guys look around first." Nina opened the fence and the front door and allowed the two of them to enter.

"Lea and Erik went around looking at the ivory-yellow house of type 36, with two standard-sized rooms and one bathroom located outside the room.

The atmosphere is quite comfortable and clean, there is a small garden in front of the house with one look Lea already likes the house.

"How ... like it?" ask Nina. Lea simply nodded, as she continued to walk around every corner of the house.

"I chose this house because it was close to my workplace. Tuh .. if you go out of the house there is a tall building in front, well my papa's office is one of them there," explained Nina.

The office building where Nina works can be reached on foot from where Lea lives later, by walking down the rat road.

"Waahh .. cool Nin where you work." Lea looked in amazement at the multi-storey building in front of her that only half of her rented house could be seen.

"You want to find a job?, if you want me to ask you later to the HRD section," said Nina.

Lea just glanced at Erik who gave her the code as if saying you were pregnant.

"I'll do it later, so Brother Erik is the first one looking for work" Lea said as he pulled a chair to sit down.

"Still like to make furniture designs, right?" tanya Nina turned to Erik.

"This is the design album, I submitted it to the production section where I work. If suitable can be freelance design personnel."

"What company do you work for is Nin?" asked Erik enthusiastically.

"Papa I tuh join to establish a similar company in the field of property, build housing around this area of East Java. Starting from the standard type to the elite," explained Nina with a sense of pride.

"Well, if the furniture design of Erik's feet fits the demand of prospective buyers, it's fun anyway." Lea and Erik looked at each other with sparkling eyes.

"Once Nin has finished cleaning this house, I can catch my design portfolio, I will hand it to you. Good luck and it could be a baby windfall if it's born." Erik smiled as he put his arm around Lea's shoulder.

Nina widened her eyes, "You're already pregnant Lea??" tanyanya while walking over and touching Lea's stomach at a glance.

"Waahh .. Too you Lea, it's not enough to make nyesek I brought the husband here uh, the prospective child has been brought too." Nina scowled at Lea.

This friend of his has never changed, both from his unfiltered way of speaking and his quite fertile body shape.

Only the shape and color of the hair seems to follow the trend in the big city.

"Hmmm, but secretly tokcer also Brother Erik, did not expect a cold snob so no need to wait long it has become volume two." Although Nina's intention was whispering but due to her voice being missed out loud, Erik who was sitting next to Lea could still hear.

Tockcer? .. hhhuuuhhh, touch the end of the button of his shirt has not been considered tokcer. Erik was sad.

Lea only smiled clumsily in response to Nina's apocalypse as well as seeing Erik's sudden limp reaction.
