Love Does Not Until

Love Does Not Until
Kartini Returns From Police Station



Melati is currently reading the novel she bought at the bookstore along with Rani, when she heard a message notification coming into her phone, but Melati ignored him because now he was excited to read the story that happened in the novel.


But when his phone rang for the second time, Melati was forced to reach for his phone to find out who the sender of the message.


Rangga : Night Mel


Melati of course was surprised to see the chat sent by the Bara after their school had a dispute with each other.


Rangga: I'm sorry for yelling at you at school


Melati is certainly happy to know that Bara apologized to him, "Bara apologized, I have to say what yes, what immediately sorry he did not, or pretend to sell expensively."


Melati : Yes Rangga, I'm sorry elo


Finally Melati chose to forgive Rangga without a convoluted process.


Lohan: Thanks Mel


Rangga: Mel, if I don't go to school tomorrow, you permit me


Melati : You do not go to school, you want to do


Rangga: I'm sick Mel


Jasmine: Lo's sick, sick fuck


Rangga: I fell off my bike this afternoon


Jasmine: Oh, my God, you've been to the hospital yet


Rangga: not severe pain, so no need to go to the hospital all


Melati : Thank goodness


Melati was certainly worried when she found out that Rangga fell off her bike.


Melati: Then tomorrow you do not masu yes


Rangga: Maybe yes, maybe no, there are two possibilities, if I do not enter so you permit it


Melati : Yes


Rangga: Why you haven't slept Mel at this hour


Jasmine: I'm reading a novel


Rangga : Novels that you read, pantes only a little thought baperan


Jasmine: Yes, yes, the end exclaimed sieh.


The two teenagers replied to a message long enough before they decided to end.


*****


The streets of Bandung as usual are never deserted, crowded by vehicles passing by, the city of Bandung is as crowded as Jakarta so that Mama Rita is not inexhaustible criticizing the government that can not overcome congestion.


Melati only as a good listener because he again males talking he did not respond to the words of his mother.


And after struggling to break through the traffic jam of Bandung, finally the car driven by Mama Rita now stopped in front of the school gate, coinciding with it from the opposite direction Dio ninja motor drove closer, closer and closer, and although Dio wears a fullface helmet, but Melati can tell that Dio is smiling at him behind his helmet, Dio stops right in front of Melati who is now out of the car. Dio took off his helmet and greeted Melati.


"Hi Mel, hi aunt." said Dio kindly while looking at the open car glass to give greetings to his mama Melati. 


Inside the mama Rita loosened her head to return Dio's greeting, "For Dio, auntie lives first."


"Yes aunt be careful." replied Dio


"Mell."


"Yes.


"Good."


"What." said Melati when she could clearly hear what Dio said.


 "Good Mel."


"Get where."


"To the motor."


"No, it's in front of this gate." Jasmine walked slowly, and Dio slowed down his bike following each step of Melati.


Once in the parking lot, Melati did not see Rangga's bike stuck, Melati was disappointed, actually she expected Rangga to enter because last night when asked if he would enter or not, he replied between yes and no.


Jasmine cuddly, thought who knows Rangga parked his bike somewhat in the middle.


"Mell." Dio looked at him confusedly, "Lo find who sieh."


"No, there's nothing." lied Melati and invited Dio in to make Dio not ask anything more, "Mending we go in yuk."


***


Anxious sitting alone in front without the presence of Rangga made Melati intend to send a message to Rangga, and when he had typed and prepared to send it, crossed doubts in the mind of Melati, and, he was afraid that Rangga at a time like this again rested and then disturbed by the message he sent, but Melati also wanted to know the state of Rangga and hoped that Rangga would reply. After experiencing an inner struggle, Melati finally chose to send the message.


From the front of the pack, their biology teacher who was teaching saw Melati busy looking down with his phone reprimanding him.


“Melati, are you here just to play hp." snapped Mr. Sena, ”If you don't like my lessons you can leave class."


Melati's face was like burning because the center of attention of her friends was now directed at her.


Melati fell silent not knowing what to answer because she was guilty, while Dio opposite him looked at her with a gaze as if to say, “Lo ngalakuin what the hell.”


Melati just looked down with a slow mutter she apologized and luckily Pak Sena did not get her out of class.


After getting a snatch, Melati hastily deactivated her phone because she did not want to be tempted to reply to Rangga's message if Rangga later replied to his message.


"Ahhkk.” Melati sighs, Melati feels stupid herself because not necessarily Rangga will reply to her message.


****


“Lo why sieh until reprimanded sir Sena.” asked Dio and Rani at the same time as Melati sat in the chair between the two of them when they were in the pocket during the break.


“Oh it.” said Melati grinned.


“Neh son well asked instead grin.”,


“Nothing kok.” said amelati in the end and started eating her food.


"Oh gosh.” said Melati in a shrill voice.


“Why again lo Mel.”, Rani asked, clearly she was annoyed by Melati's behavior.


While Dio just looked at Melati with curiosity.


Without caring for Rani's words, Melati reached into her gray skirt bag and pulled out her deactivated phone, after a few seconds of blazing and a simple sound that signified the incoming message welcoming Melati, now 5 messages decorate the screen hpnya from one person, namely a message from Rangga.


“Gosh.” cried Melati again when reading a reply sent by Rangga, even though the message sent by Rangga was mediocre, but he was up to squeal with such joy.


Rangga : Yes Mel, I didn't go in, kind of hurt me, but thank you for worrying about me.


"What the hell is sieh Mel, from earlier lo hysterical mulu dah.” Rani now sticks out her neck so she can peek at Melat's screen.


,”Ih, lo kepo aja.” Melati distanced her phone so that Rani could not peek at him.


Dio also who from earlier on could no longer hold back, he got up and now tried to look at Melati's phone up close, because feeling surrounded from the left and right finally Melati gave up and told the two friends willingly without any coercion at all.


“OK deh, okay, I tell you elo.” exclaimed Melati, because Melati had promised to talk about what happened, he said, finally Dio sat back down and Rani again distanced her neck and with them still looked at Melati waiting for her to talk.


“Gue earlier was trying to send a message to rangga, and Rangga replied to him.” tell Melati.


Dio coughed, while Rani smiled sumringah.


“Lo sent a message to Rangga, saying." Dio's voice sounded cold.


,”Ngapain lo say.” sahut Rani, ”Yah Melati nanyain reportedly Ranggalah, you do not realize or pretend not to know if the rangga today did not enter, you did not know, what kind of class leader you do not ask the news of class members lo, jasmine who is just a class member is just the same attention Rangga."


"Gue doesn't say the same to you Ran." Dio replied as if he didn't like to hear Rani's words.


Melati who realizes soon there will be a bloodbath between her two friends trying to mediate, "Have it been, why are you guys who are in a storm, sieh, this is a small problem and has nothing to do with you two."


Dio breaks the table and without saying a word he leaves behind Melati and Rani.


"Dio, where are you going." Melati tried to call him even though it was in vain.


Melati looked back at Rani who also looked jealous, "She's why sieh, lately very sensitive."


"Lo just ask yourself the same person." answered Rani indifferently.


Melati sebel also the same Rani, could-can he hear those words from Rani, Rani, but since he was laper and had not eaten anything, he finally chose to stay with Rani whose mood was also bad.


***


Until the bell came home ringing the atmosphere between Dio and Rani had not improved, nor did they say hello, Melati tried to come to the two trying to reconcile them when the lesson time was empty, but there is no result because both are stubborn.


As soon as the bell came home ringing, Melati nimbly cleaned her writing utensils and without looking left right again she rushed out of the classroom, Dio's voice calling out to her he ignored her at all.


Melati walked mingled with dozens of other students walking towards the school gate. Melati felt his chest tight, he found it difficult to breathe among the crowd of other children, for the past few months the disease is a bit rare relapse, only if he was too born it happened, it happened, once outside the gate, Melati was bored, she tried to catch her breath and take it out while stroking her chest that felt heavy, she did not bother to eat her bag because she did not bring the medicine.


A red ninja motorcycle stopped right in front of him, Melati was afraid, so he thought that it was not about the unknown biker.


“Yeah, not enough what my chest was tight, why there are still people who want to harm me, but this is school and there are still many children who pass by, but, if nieh people of sorts, I just scream aja.” Inner Melati.


When Melati was about to open her mouth, the biker first opened her helmet and managed to make Melati stupefied in her place with her mouth open like a fool when she saw who the biker was, his fear was now forgotten, he needed a few seconds to regain consciousness, Melati blinked her eyes to ascertain whether what she saw was really Rangga or not.


“Why lo Mel, never seen a handsome person yah.” said the voice he had often heard as well as his voice that made him miss, he said, but Melati did not budge so that made Rangga get off his bike and shook Melati's shoulders slowly.


“Mel, you are fine.” now Rangga looks at him because he believes he is wrong.


Melati shook her head and tried not to look stupid.


“Rangga lo....” sound Melati stopped, "Lo use motor."


"Ishh, Rangga." annoyed Melati heard Rangga's words.


Now Rangga has even climbed on the bike again.


“Good Mel, I anter lo.”


Seeing Melati still standing in her place, Rangga thrust a red helmet at Melati who was taken doubtfully by Melati 


“Ga, you can bring motor.” hesitate Melati.


“Why, you are afraid yes I boncengin.“


“Eh no really, but you will be sick again why you can come to school and use the motor again."


“Gue to pick up lo.”


"Lo's gonna pick me up."


"Yes, you're afraid to miss again." Rangga's tease that makes Melati's face meet.


"What a bitch's bug."


"Work up Mel I'm anterin."


“But Ga..."


“Trust me, I am healthy and I promise I will bring you home with intact.” joked Rangga.


I don't want Melati smiling too.


"All right."


After Melati sat in a car with Rangga motorbike, Rangga stopped his motorbike and drove to leave school, Rangga took his motorcycle slowly.


Melati enjoyed her moments with Rangga, Melati wanted to wrap her hands around Rangga's waist but she was afraid Rannga would get angry if she did that.


“If you are afraid of falling, just hold it." said Rangga as if he could read the contents of Melati's heart.


“Gue handle where." asked Melati dumb-hardened.


“Here hand lo.” 


Melati reached out her hand which was then held by Rangga and linked to her waist, “Tangann lo the other Mel.” Melati obediently wrapped her left hand.


When the motor has started to run, Melati unconsciously leaned her head on Rangga's back, it feels so comfortable that she did not realize that she had reached home 


“Mel, it has reached nieh.” reprimand Rangga shook Jasmine's hand.


Melati hurriedly released her grip on Rangga's waist and got off the motor.


After handing over the helmet to Rangga, Melati said, ”Suk yuk Ga.”


“Gak ngerepotin nieh.”


“Of course not donk.” Melati flicked her hand, “Yuk.” invite Melati again.


"Ma, mama." called Melati as soon as she entered the house and was surprised because Melati was found in the middle room was Denis.


Denis so saw Melati immediately stand up and greet Jasmine, Jasmine did not end up thinking Denis suddenly embraced her.


Rangga who was behind Melati froze in place, for a few seconds Melati just realized and pushed Denis body.


“Gue misses lo Mel." Denis opening sentence.


Jasmine blinked her eyes like a flickering person.
