Love is Not Finished

CHAPTER 43: Kangen Cost

I'm getting ready in the room tonight. Tomorrow morning I'll go to the city P. Because Monday morning I have my first lecture.

I miss the boarding kids, they miss me, don't they?

"Zanu, here's the money he's spending for the next week" said Mama who suddenly appeared from behind my bedroom door.

I approached Mama and took the money.

"Thank you Mama, God willing Zanu came home again on Saturday" I replied.

"Either. Tomorrow when you get to the boarding house, do not forget to tell ya son. Take good care of yourself while you're there" advises Mama.

"Yes Ma,"

I hugged Mama for a while and moved again to the things I would bring tomorrow. I almost forgot to put Bram's jacket in my backpack.

"Yes already, if it's settled, immediately rest. Tomorrow's dawn Papa's coming to the terminal,"

I'm nagging. Mom went out of the room and went downstairs. Before long Zuri went into the room and sat down on the small chair.

"Sister, it's going so fast. Zuri is alone at home" Zuri said.

"Well how else Deck, Brother is now in college. Time is only Sunday. That's why you have to come back here. Zuri will lecture at the campus Brother, let us host together," I said while packing a book.

"But it's still a long time Zuri attended college, brother. If Papa Mama works, Zuri has no friends at home" Zuri complained.

"Patience Deck,"

Zuri just kept quiet and started to slide into bed. I'm done with all the things I'll bring tomorrow. My bedroom door was closed and my key. I went up to the bed and fell down beside Zuri.

"Sister, how's Bram doing?" ask Zuri.

"good. Why is he on Deck?" askaku.

"It's just Kak. Asik also yes Kak can have a girlfriend. Unfortunately I have not been able to date Papa," replied Zuri.

"Well, it's not cool. It's just that you're lucky to meet Bram. Don't know, why you can meet and be with him. Like it just flows. Just brother scared..,"

"Fear why Brother? He was kind and very fond of Brother," asked Zuri.

"Yes, but anyone can change Deck. Later Brother finished college and work, there is a lot of time to live. It did not rule out the possibility that he could change or leave Big Brother's life. Brother is afraid of losing him," I replied.

"Yaaahh, Zuri hasn't understood about that yet. Hopefully Brother can continue with Brother Bram,"

"Hopefully. Udah ah, we're bobo' yuk, tomorrow dawn Brother must be ready to leave,"

Zuri nodded. Zuri and I pulled the blanket. We sleep and dissolve in each other's dreams.

********

At dawn, I wake up.

And preparing. I eat breakfast and drink milk. When I was ready, I said goodbye to Mama. Zuri is still sleeping.

Papa and I went to the terminal. There are several buses waiting for passengers. It didn't take long, I got into the bus that was almost full of passengers.

I say goodbye and greetings Papa. Papa hugged me for a moment.

"Be careful while traveling, son. Don't forget to give us news. Do not forget to always pray, too" said Papa.

"Okay Papa, Zanu left first yes," I replied.

Papa nodded. I rushed into the bus because the bus was about to leave. I waved at Papa and Papa replied.

Finally the bus I was riding drove to its destination. I don't want to waste time, I take sleep with me during the trip. Because I still feel sleepy.

********

At last...

I also arrived at the favorite room. I went in and got Auntie cleaning up on the front page.

"Waa'alaikum hail, uh neng Zanu. Come inside. Friends at college, stay with Prita in her room," replied Auntie.

"Okay Aunt, thanks for the info. I went inside first yeah..,"

"Let's go neng..,"

I went straight inside through the side door. It still feels good to see the plants and flowers are blooming and the trees are getting shady near the pool.

Sometimes soak ah..

I went straight to my room. And I fell down for a moment to let go of the fatigue on the way here. I remember Bram, surely now he's in college.

I guess I can meet Bram later on campus?

"Hei Zanu's! Duh, how are you? I miss you know," said Prita who immediately barged in and sat on a chair near my bed.

I'm shocked! Turns out my bedroom door forgot to close. I'm glad to see Prita coming up to me.

"Hi also Prita, I also miss you. How was the camp event? The lancarkah?" I was curious and immediately sat down near Prita.

"Seru. But there's no you Zanu, less greget. Oiya, Sis Resa told me that you were with Bram in Prn? Fun dong can be close to the heart..," said Prita smiling.

Lho? You know where Risa is? Why does all the information about Bram, Kak Resa always know, he's ready Bram? Freaky...

"No, Bram stopped by my house twice and we ate outside. It's just Prita" I replied.

"Yes fun there Zanu, met rarely let kangennya added. Oiya, have you seen Atif?" ask Prita shyly.

My feelings are right. If Prita ends must be nanyain Atif, ha.ha.ha... Looks like my friend is in love.

"There was. I met Atif, but didn't talk. You miss, huh? Did he know he didn't contact you? Didn't you give me our host phone number?" many wonder.

"That's Zanu. Until now I waited for news from him but did not arrive. Or maybe he knows I'm out here at the faculty camp?" Prita asked back.

"Yes maybe. But you know where he is, what Bram is. Yes, tomorrow if Bram stopped by the boarding house, I asked to bring his Atif. Let you also have a conversation with Atif here," I replied.

"What is Zanu? Dih, you are very good.., thank you Zanu, I am happy to hear it," said Prita enthusiastically.

"Okay, as long as I can help. Oiya, what time are we going to college today? I don't have a schedule yet" I asked.

"Today we're not going to Zanu's college. Just asked to gather at the campus at nine. Most in the same material love lecturer. Tomorrow we start college, I have a schedule. You'll copy mine later,"

I'm nodding. I started to shift and look for a new towel in the closet.

"Yes, we're getting ready for college. I want to wash my face first and change my clothes" I said.

"Okay, I'm waiting downstairs, yeah,"

Prita went straight out of my room and went downstairs. I went into the bathroom to wash my face.

I'm still curious, Whose sister is that? Is she the same Bram? I'll ask Bram directly ah.. Or ask Kak Resa directly later on campus. If meet.

I hurried to wash my face and wipe my face with a towel. I immediately changed new clothes, this time I relaxed style. T-shirts, jeans and sneakers. Do not forget the backpack to load the binder and a little snack plus a drinking bottle.

My eyes were suddenly glued to Bram's jacket. This jacket has become my favorite jacket. Wherever I take it, tacky...

But to college this time, Bram's jacket I live in first. I hung the jacket in the hanger and kept it in the closet. After everything was ready, I went out, locked the door and went downstairs.

I saw Prita waiting for me at the side door.

"Let's go..!" pita.

I followed Prita and we got out of the boarding house to the bus stop. Along the way we are joking, especially discussing between Atif and Bram.

Atif, hurry up and meet my friend Prita. He can be stressed waiting, ahai....!

And I can also stress hearing her story, ha.ha.ha...
