Love is Not Just a Word
Finally



"Tante Novi, tomorrow my makeup is on graduation day huh hehe". I sent a message the night before.


"Ohhh already graduated, okay deh ready to jamber (what time) tomorrow Ka?". My aunt this one was indeed slang right in the language until - until I lost Hahaha..


"Hehe yes Aunt, at 05.30 aja Aunt, let's not hunt tomorrow". Long ago my aunt replied that I was asleep.


The morning before graduation


The sky looks clear today, in accordance with my wishes that hope that this day is bright because today is a special day for me.


"Later to come straight to my house Ka". Whatsapp from my aunt the next morning.


"Ok ready Auntie, I also have to go to the house Auntie nih". I replied while walking with my mother.


"Wahhh mbakyu adi arep neng ndi iki? (Wahhh mbak equally well where are you going? ) ". Greet my neighbor who passed by on the same road to me and my mother. Often nicknamed sister because I was taller than my mother.


"Hahaha arep ngeterke my son dandan ki, arep graduation aboute(Hahaha want nganterin my son dandan, want graduation because)


" Wahhh yo gek passed gek rabbi (Wahhh ya quickly passed hold of marriage) Hahaha". Said my neighbor who was this ceplos cleplas when he said. My mother told me to work first, he said.


Tok tok tok tok


"Assalamualaikum, kulo nuwun Aunt Novi (Assalamualaikum, excuse me Aunt Novi)".


"Hehe's the same as my mother Tan, sorry Tan ngrepotin. Soale nek neng salon often over time (Soalya if the candidate is often later) hehehe".


"Ohh Mbak Ari, wahhh jian mbakyu adi po mother son iki Hahaha (Wahhh Mbak adek what mother of this child Hahaha)". My same tantalizing words as one of my neighbors who thought I and my mother were sisters. We are mother and child. Indeed, you could say my mother was young anyway, gray hair (white hair) had not yet aged also 37 years. Because my father and mother married young.


My slim and tall body is perfect to wear my mother's kebaya. It is deep black in color and plus gold fabric flowers. And the subordinates are brown in gold anyway. Plus the beautiful head makeup from my Tantu that adds charm to myself Ehe. Because I don't like heels, but told to try to wear heels so beautiful my tantik said. But basically, I'm pretty, Hehehe.


"Wahhh his mas profile is handsome, ciee who is this Ka, Wahh ki Bu Ari arep due mantu ki Hahaha... (Wahhh this Bu Ari want to have a ghost nih Hahaha.)". Said my neighbor who surprised me while I was being groomed and happened to have my phone on, too, and my neighbor who was also worried about her son


seeing mobile. Duhhh kok can forget anyway do not change the profile on my phone. Malunyaaa.


"Hahaha.. haiyo bar e graduation ngko rasah damaged wae make up e gek sisan to (Laiya graduation later do not need to remove her makeup continues all at once)". Said my aunt while adding knickknacks on my hijab and glanced at my mother. While my mother and I just kept quiet and occasionally responded with laughter, they all laughed together. Huftttt when it feels like crying. Reminds me how cruel Rey is to me.


On this day, the day of tension of students throughout the school in Bantul received the results of the hard work that has been passed by months of nervousness, anxiety, haru, anxiety, jumbled anyway. And in these seconds, minutes, and hours the announcement of graduation will be heard soon, even with the right grades, I hope I graduate so that my parents are not disappointed. I was escorted to school by my dearest Father. Arriving at school and parking my motorbike with my father entered, but we were separated because the child and guardian of the student's seat was separated. After the MC read out the arrangement of the event and a speech to the principal's mother. After that followed the traditional dance of my underclassmen and the accompaniment of music and choir from my teachers who made all the students in my school become full of tension because a few more minutes will be leaving the school that has been trampled for three years.


"Dannnn... For this year.... Students at our Junior High School Graduated 100%. Applause for all of us". The graduation announcement by the Headmaster who had been tense became a haru atmosphere for us.


"Alhamdulillah O Allah". We said with a hug to our fellow disciples.


"The tenth recruit of Meyrisa Tika Pratiwi from Boga Tiga class please go on stage". Finally my name was called as well, it was a relief to have got a necklace with my SMK logo. After finishing and selfies and photos to be used as a memory - memories even though I and my classmates are not too familiar anyway. Finally, my father and I with other friends came home with faces that were radiant because they graduated. Arriving at home there is already a group of volleyball players, one of which is this Eno. And the night sheaa...
