Love is Not Finished

CHAPTER 30: That Photo

Tin..Ms. Tin..Tin...!

The sound of the Bram car that Mr. Jack was carrying stopped in the yard.

The front door opened, and a middle-aged mother and a young girl rushed to welcome Jack and me.

"Welcome to Non Zanu. Introduce me to his wife Mr. Jack and this is our daughter Laura" Mr. Jack's wife said with a friendly smile.

I smiled and cheered one by one. Mr. Jack's daughter looks cute and polite. Judging from its stature, it might still be sitting in high school.

"Laura, take Non Zanu to the room for a break. Later I will bring drinks to the room" said Mr. Jack's Wife.

Laura nodded and smiled.

"Don't bother Ma'am. I can drink it myself,"

"It's okay Non. Let's not follow the Lauren,"

"Thank you Ma'am, let's Mr. Jack" I said, taking my backpack and Bram's backpack.

"Please Non..," said Mr. Jack and his wife almost together.

I followed Laura from behind. Laura opened a room there. And he let me in first.

"Please Non, this is the room. Sorry the room looks simple, I hope Non likes it," Laura said kindly.

"Ooo.., it's okay Laura. It's been great, thanks, yeah,"

"If there is any need, can call me or Mother Yes Non. Excuse me...,"

I'm nodding. Laura went out of the room. Then I closed the door and locked it from the inside.

I sat for a moment in bed and fell down. I was thinking, how can my days be runyam? I should have been able to follow this camp smoothly.

Does it have anything to do with Bram? Yep! After Bram, I always felt like there was a problem. What does this have to do with Sari? Could be. Because of the last pas ospek, Bram scolded him.

I don't know. I miss Papa, Mama and Zuri. If only I could go home now, hiks..!

True, my heart is actually sad. I want to tell you so my heart can plong. But who should tell? Brams? She's busy. A prita? He's the guy I just met.

If only there were a brother! Maybe my problem could be reduced a little.

Tired of thinking, I fell asleep in this room.

*******

Geck! Geck! Geck!

I flinched from sleep. I saw the clock on my wrist, it turned out to be five in the afternoon.

Ow hell! I haven't prayed, taken a shower and had lunch!

"Who?" my many.

"Laura Non's. Maybe you don't want to take a shower or eat first?" ask Laura back.

"Yes Laura, I'm going out. I'll take a shower, "I replied.

"None Good,"

I hurried to open the backpack. It turns out that Bram's towel was left in the tent and may have been charred. Good thing Bram's jacket is still in my backpack.

I saw Bram's backpack. I want to open it, I know there's a towel, but I doubt it.

I'm tepis doubtful of that. Without a second thought, I dared to open Bram's backpack. When I opened it, there were some t-shirts, shorts and towels.

Thank God, I can take a shower.. Borrow Bram's towel, I thought.

When I pulled the towel, Bram's wallet suddenly fell off. You could say it is not the main wallet Bram, but maybe a spare wallet that is rectangular.

I picked up the wallet. And my curiosity suddenly arises without having to have a reason, weleh..

I opened Bram's wallet. Deg-degan! Afraid of something wow. And it turns out wow!!

Lots of papers and some photos there. I just focus on the picture. I noticed one by one. I'm shocked! It turns out that there is a photo of Sari posing next to Bram! Another photo, Bram, Sari and a girl who looks like Sari.

Is that Sari's sister? I forgot what his name was, which I must have heard of him talking to the boarding kids. Maybe this is the guy.

Suddenly there was a feeling of anger and jealousy in my heart. I'm angry that I felt lied to by Bram.

He said he was just friends, but what proof is this?! Watch out Bram!

I took the two photos and put them in my backpack. I'll cover up Bram's wallet and backpack.

I opened the door and went out. Don't forget I brought towels and a change of clothes. I'm looking for someone who has a home.

"Eh Non Zanu is awake. Now you want to take a shower?" said Laura's mother's voice from behind me.

I was shocked and turned towards the voice. I smile at his dong despite being shocked.

"Yes Mom. But the toiletries were left behind near the tent that was on fire" I replied.

"Oiya.., Non toiletries, it was between the Father here. It's in front of the bathroom. Please do not take a shower first, after that eat. Not lunch yet, right?" ask the Mother.

"Don't eat first, ma'am, just have dinner later. I also have not prayed Ashar, already want afternoon. I'm taking a shower, Mom,"

"Yeah.yes, please Non,"

I rushed into the bathroom and took my toiletries. I want to pursue Ashar prayer, fearing that Magrib's time will come in.

********

After taking a bath and praying Ashar, I closed the window of the room, closed the curtains and turned on the lights. I've got Bram's jacket ready for me to wear tonight. Don't forget I slipped the two photos into the jacket's side pocket.

Azan magrib began to reverberate. Without a second thought, I immediately wudhu and pray. After that I took a thin dance. Let my face look fresh, don't look blurry tonight this week.

Yup! It's sunday night. Last night camping, tomorrow everyone goes home. Later, I asked Bram to let me join my friends in tent number ten. I want to mix with the others too.

I also talked to Prita. Later if Bram asks for company, I should refuse.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

"Excuse me, Non, the Chairman has arrived. Waiting in the living room" said Laura behind my door.

"Okay Laura, I'll be right there, thank you, yes" I replied.

"None Good,"

I took Bram's jacket and looked in the mirror for a moment. Then I walked out of the room to the living room.

I saw Bram sitting back in a blue jeans suit and a white T-shirt with a blue Z. Is that Z me? She looks so cool and so cute...

The deg! There was a groggy feeling as I stood in front of Bram. Bram raised his face and saw me standing in front of him.

"Hai Zanu, nice to see you again. How's he doing now?" bram asked while glancing at me from top to bottom.

"Already lightened. He said meds would come here to check my legs. I have slept waiting, not yet come. Where's?" askaku.

"Sorry Zanu, the medical has a sudden need this afternoon, hopefully tomorrow morning he can come here to check your feet.. You're not angry, are you?" bram replied, persuading me.

I shut up with a manyun mouth. I'm gonna sit down. But Bram prevented it.

"We're straight out. Tonight at the campground there's a bonfire. You stay there, you gotta stay close to me, okay,"

"I don't want to! I want to join my friends. You can see me from afar, not necessarily near. I'm ashamed to know! After all, I'm not the one Big Brother is," I said sniffly and slightly scolded Bram.

Not without reason I talk like that. Because I remember those pictures I found in Bram's wallet. Disappointment and anger are in my heart right now. Plus jealousy.

"Zanu, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly angry? What else can I get? Never mind.. This is all for your own safety. And I have a surprise tonight, so please don't spoil it tonight, okay" Bram said.

"It has. Now we're off. I can not stay here for long, because I have to accompany seniors and committee to give directions to new students. Adat leaders and youth here are also present,"

Bram stood up from his seat and walked towards the outside door. I just shut up and followed Bram from behind.

You have to get close to him again!

On the front porch are Mr. Jack, his wife and Laura. This time Mr. Jack drove us to the camp site.

"Excuse me, Mother, Laura. I took Zanu there first. Later that night Zanu and I will sleep here, can ya..?" ask Bram politely.

"Duh Chief, yes.. We're happy to host the Chairman here. Oiya, Non Zanu has not eaten, he is afraid to forget, Non can be sick," replied the Mother.

"Later there we have dinner, Mom, so I don't have to bother preparing. Okay, we'll go first, yeah,"

The mother and Laura nodded and smiled. Bram opened the car door for me. I went inside.

Bram and Jack were in the car.

The car drove to the campground.
