"Assalammu'alaikum,"
"Waa'alaikum greetings" I answered, rushing to open the door.
"Hi.., is waiting for me?" bram asked smilingly looking at me behind the door.
"Not really. Come on in, brother," I replied.
Bram stepped in and immediately sat down on the living room sofa.
"What do you want to drink?" bargained.
"White water only" replied Bram.
"Wait a moment, yeah,"
Bram nodded. I headed to the kitchen and immediately picked up a glass and a kettle of water. I brought a tray and went back to the living room.
It turns out that Papa was there. Looks like I just talked. I poured water from the teapot and I put it on the front desk Bram sat on.
"Pa, Zanu grab the item above first huh. Please drink, brother," I said.
"Yes son. Papa chatted with Bram, "Papa replied.
I looked briefly at Bram and Bram replied with a smile. I immediately rushed to the top of the room to pick up a backpack and some small equipment to carry.
*********
A few minutes later, I went down again. I noticed Papa and Bram were talking seriously, I don't know what it was.
"All Pa is ready. Zanu can come with Bram?" my many.
"Yes, son, I can. Permission same Mama first yes," said Papa.
"Well Pa, Zanu call Mama,"
I'm heading to Mama's room. Mama abis finished zuhur prayer.
"Ma, Zanu and Bram want to leave. Papa's in front" I said.
"Yes, boy, hang on. Mama fold this mukena first. Oiya, do a lot during the trip later," Mama's message while folding the blanket.
"Yes Ma,"
"Yuk, we're out" Mama asked.
I followed Mama from behind to the living room.
"Om, Auntie, I'm willing to go with Zanu," said Bram immediately without further ado.
"Oiya son, be careful on the road. Titip Zanu yes," answered my mother directly.
"Don't speed it up. Later when it's up to the boarding house tell ya son," Papa chimed.
"Yes Pa. Zanu go first yeah,"
Bram and I greeted Mom and Dad. Suddenly Zuri nongol from the family room. Zuri immediately greeted me and Bram.
Papa, Mama and Zuri drove me to the front porch. Looks like there are three cars, Bram must have brought his members.
Bram and I got in the car. After waving his hand, the car finally drove towards the destination, which is to the city of P.
*********
During the trip, Bram always made me laugh with his funny stories. Bram held my hand.
An hour later, from a distance Bram saw someone selling watermelon on the side of the road.
"Zanu, you want a watermelon?" ask Bram.
"Lho, we're going again. Can you stop?" askaku.
"Yes can dong. Mr. Jack, I'd like to buy a watermelon, please stop the car" Bram ordered.
"Good Boss,"
The car stopped on the side of the road. Bram took me across the street holding my hand.
"I know you like fruits. Semangkanya directly cut into pieces yes, so that it can be directly eaten," said Bram.
I followed Bram's wishes. I love fruit, especially watermelon. I didn't expect Bram to pay attention to my favorite to such a detail.
After buying the watermelon, we both crossed the road again to the car.
The car drove back. Me, Bram and Mr. Jack eat watermelon. Semangkanya sweet and savory because it is new in the pick of the seller from the garden.
"Zanu, I also brought a sack. I tipped with a friend yesterday," said Bram while eating watermelon.
"Huh?"
"The reception is in the trunk of the car. Later you take it to the boarding house, can be shared with friends,"
"Not bother, brother" I replied.
"Not bother, what the hell is it for you? Yes, Mr. Jack," teased Bram to me.
"Yes Non, let alone rambutan, the same gardens in the purchase of a special boss for Non," Mr. Jack defended Bram with a smile.
"Ah, Mr. Jack can do it" I said with a smile.
"Lha, that's exactly what Mr. Jack said. Do you want a rambutan garden? Let me order with my manager. Where do you want the location?" bram asked while looking at me seriously.
"No, no, brother. Udah, rambutan sack that let me take it later to the boarding house," I refused Bram's offer subtly. This is just a joke anyway.
Suddenly Bram took his phone. I don't know who I'm calling, I don't pay much attention. I'm still relaxing enjoying the rest of the watermelon in my hands.
"Siang too. Please buy one acre of land in B city and plant rambutan. You contact the experts and plant the seedlings of rambutan binjai, rapiah. All in the name of Zanu, later I send the files," said Bram.
Aha!! Did I not hear wrong? Glacier!! Oh my God, what was my dream last night?!
My eyes glared at Bram, as if not believing what I heard. While Bram just smiled at me while stroking my head.
Click!
Bram turned off his phone. With the rest, Bram took the watermelon again in a plastic bag.
"Honey, now you have your own rambutan garden as well as the land. Later I will take care of your land letter, just prepare the ID card, okay," said Bram.
"Well! Congratulations, you have your own garden. Later if the harvest, I help Non. It's true what you said, he.he.he." said Mr. Jack while driving.
"But Brother, isn't that too much? What did Daddy say to Mama? I feel like a matre chick, don't I?" I'm going to Bram.
"Where's the theater? I bought it, not because you asked. Never mind, I want to see you happy" said Bram.
"But my pleasure is not all to buy Brother. I don't want to take it for granted. After all we are still dating, do not be too excessive. I feel like I can buy it,"
"Ssttt..! You don't talk like that! Pull up Zanu! Don't ever talk like that again! Remember that!!" Bram. Bram's anger was burning from the look in his eyes.
"But Sis..," I was silent for a moment. Confused about what else.
"No but-but Zanu, I've arranged everything. You will never know before in the future I tell everything. So please, don't talk about it again, okay," Bram said.
"What does Brother mean? I don't understand at all? Is there something you're hiding from me? I felt that something had changed when after Brother received a call from Brother's parents back then at the hospital. Please tell me, brother, what is it?" manya curious.
"There is no Zanu. My parents only told me that they were going to Indonesia before I graduated later," Bram replied in a low voice.
"No, I can't believe that's all I'm talking about. I'm sure there must be something that Brother is hiding. Don't lie, brother," I asked again.
My curiosity is growing. I couldn't stand my curiosity all this time.
Suddenly Bram pulled my shoulder and leaned my head over his shoulder. I'm shocked! What happened to Bram?
Why do I feel sure, something is going to happen in the future.
"Zanu, no matter what happens, I still love you. Stay my Zanuku, when the time is right for me to come to you," said Bram softly in my ear.
The deg! What does Bram mean? Is he going to leave? What the hell's going on? Pleases..
"Oiya, can you swim? I have a pool at my house, you are free to swim there" said Bram, quickly distracting my confusion.
"I can't swim Brother" I replied.
"Wear the buoy, I'll push. I have also brought a special chef to the house, later you can request any food you like. Okay, baby," said Bram with enthusiasm.
I just nodded. My head is still haunted by a lot of questions, which Bram is unlikely to talk about.
