Love Stories Overseas

Chapter 3

Wowo who had the most annoyed expression saw Dila and Nino sitting and chatting together on the hill.

" You guys are going here secretly anyway, not saying goodbye to us-we, fortunately Asna just saw you guys walk towards the hill".

Asna only grinned the horse when his name was called by Wowo with a face cobbled.

" So Dila was cold playing in the water under the waterfall, so I invited here, sunbathing to be warm" he said.

Dila already understands the character of Nino and Wowo, Wowo is more open and clasped ceplos, while Nino is silent and keeps so many secrets.

" It turns out that the road here is quite tired as well yes, it looks from the bottom not very high, but just past, huuuh, quite draining sweat", Dawn is sekbid publicas in coral cadets, he knew the tension between Wowo and Nino the most.

" Once from here how about if we have lunch in a middle stall of rice fields?, there the menu is quite diverse, it feels good at a fairly cheap price for our pockets - we are not yet earning, let alone the place, let alone the place, it's really convenient to hang out". Dawn said it was like promoting her restaurant business.

" May as well.", all concur.

At 11 o'clock they came out of Curug amara, and headed to the middle of the rice field stall which is located not far from Curug amara.

When walking out of Curug there is a group of young people who have just come to Curug and there are some who whistle when crossing with Dila and Asna who walk the very back among other friends.

" Beautiful... can you contact me?, we-we still singgle loh...., if you can contact, we treat lunch at the cafe next door".

The muttering of one of the young men was actually answered by Wowo fiercely.

" Sory yes, situ singgle, unfortunately the beauty has not stopped yet, already someone has !". Wowo immediately pulled Dila's hand, while Dila pulled Asna's hand, Wowo immediately got a sharp look from the horde of young men who had just entered it, including a sharp gaze from Nino, as well, but Nino could only stare and not dare to act like Wowo.

" If the road does not misah from the entourage like Dil, so not tempted by the guys are not clear as they are!", Wowo still clasped Dila's hand, when Dila tried to release Wowo's hand grip, but he was still holding Dila, because it felt bad for Nino, as well as for Asna.

Dila simply nodded without answering, unwilling to prolong the debate, Wowo would definitely answer again if Dila answered his reprimand.

Arriving at the food stall, everything went smoothly and safely, not too much drama as when in Curug earlier. The stall-shaped atmosphere of the rooms with dry leaf roofs, and separated with other rooms, makes them feel comfortable.

The atmosphere is a little rowdy and rame, because they hold a bottle spin game throughout lunch.

For those who are pointed at the tip of the bottle must entertain others, whether by singing, dancing, joking, or something else that makes them laugh.

The first one to get a turn is Asna, Asna with her merdunya voice singing the song Risalah heart belongs to the god 19. So pervasive in ref....

🎶I can make you fall in love with me even if you don't love me.

Give it a little time...

let love come because it has become accustomed to 🎶

And no one realized Asna's purpose of singing the song, none other than being shown to Wowo, the guy she was expecting.

After Asna finished singing and the bottle turned again, the bottle pointed at Dawn. Dawn chose to stand up comedy, because the sound is not so good and always false every singing, but Dawn always save so many funny stories, funny, and it makes everyone laugh every time they listen to Fajar tell a story.

And the bottle goes back to spinning, all get turns in turns, and the one who gets the last turn is Dila. Dila could sing, but was not wanting to sing, Dila finally read one of Khalil Gibran's works she had read in a book.

~~

...The friendship...

In the sweetness of friendship, let there be joyful laughter. Sharing sorrow and pleasure. For in the speck of dew, the human heart breathes in the dawn that awakens and gains the passion of life .

~~

Maybe going with friends this time will be a sweet memory that will continue to be remembered when abroad later, and until anytime.

Dila arrived at home at half-time two in the afternoon, his father and mother had also just returned from the rice fields. Dita was the most excited, because Dila brought souvenirs for her only sister. In addition, the father who returned home brought the young coconut his order earlier.

" Well, very suitable hot days like this, mbak Dila came home with fruit lutis, and the father of the rice field bawain kelp, bendeki anak sholehah", Dita smiled and could not wait for the young coconut to be opened by the father.

Dila first prayed duhur and joined his sister who was crouching in the kitchen waiting for the father to open the young coconut for himself and also Dila.

" This, I've opened the two, you enjoy together. Father same mother already in the rice field earlier". Toto handed two young coconuts to his two daughters.

" What was the event, how to go to Curug Dil?", asked Toto while sitting in a long chair next to the dining table.

" Pak's farewell event, he said the last streets mumpung Dila has not left to Bekasi", replied Dila honestly.

Toto looks like thinking, "does our family also need to go for a walk or vacation before you leave for Bekasi?, we have also not gone for a long time to go on a family picnic. As you remember, last had a picnic 3 years ago, when you graduated Junior High, and Dita was a kid". Toto only realized that for a very long time he did not take his children and wife on vacation.

Not that Toto did not think about it, but since Dila entered SMK and needed a larger school fee, almost every income he got was used up just to finance his two school daughters.

" No sir, refreshing it does not have to vacation to tourist attractions. Tomorrow we go to the rice fields just together, we can eat vegetables in the rice fields together, continue to eat lunch together in the dugout, that's enough, right Dit?", Dila tried to ask for her sister's approval.

Dita whose mouth is full because she is enjoying young coconuts just nods in agreement. Although Dita is still a child, but she also understands how the financial situation of her father is only mediocre. Not to mention his brother who wants to go far away and need a big cost for the beginning of life abroad. Dita only hopes her sister can succeed and succeed in the overseas later.

The next day, as planned yesterday. Dila and Dita come with their parents to the rice field. Picking the long beans and chili that his father planted in the rice field, and after the sun started to sting the skin, they enjoyed lunch together in a small pot that was on the edge of their rice field.

Toto again plucked young coconuts on another tree, because Toto had several coconut trees on the edge of the field.

All felt so delicious and happy when doing something with the family, even though only eating potluck in a small hut on the outskirts of the field.

Maybe this kind of togetherness is either going to happen again, or maybe it's the last time they're together like this. Because after Dila's departure next week, surely everything will change as time goes on.

The hope of all the sacrifices made was only a success for their eldest daughter. Success will make their lives better.

A week passed, the time came when Dila had to leave for the big city where his destination was to wander, the city of Bekasi.

Dila was escorted by Toto to BLK where he followed the distribution of work. Dila asked her father to come home first, but Toto kept waiting until the bus that would take Dila arrived.

Dila sees Nino standing across the street, as Nino sends a message to her phone. But Nino did not dare to approach because there was a father who was still waiting for Dila until he left.

Shortly after the bus to Bekasi stopped in front of BLK, Dila and several other girls entered the bus carrying their big bags. Toto let go of his eldest daughter by waving as the bus began to speed away and drifted further away.

Dila apologizes to Nino for not daring to meet him even for a moment, and Nino understands that, because he also did not dare to openly meet Dila in front of his father.

Without feeling a tear dripping to see the figure of the father and also Nino who was getting smaller and farther from sight. Along the way Dila can only pray that his decision to migrate to the big city is the right decision and will lead him to the door of success later.
