Love Stories Overseas

Chapter 9

Holding hands like this, for a moment makes Dila so reminded of Nino when in Curug romance, with the reason that fear Dila slipped because of slippery, Nino managed to make Dila according to to hold hands with each other.

Like an inner bond, when Dila remembered Nino, suddenly there was a message coming from Nino on her phone.

Dila only saw for a moment, but deliberately had not read it, because he was currently on the road, afraid of dangerous if walking while playing HP.

After crossing over, Dila went into the minimarket and bought the exact same mosquito repellent lotion as Kunto's, while Kunto bought two chocolate-flavored ice creams, for herself and another one given to Dila.

Kunto immediately opened the ice cream packaging and enjoyed it while walking.

" Thank you, I should have bought you a snack, because it has been the meaning of nemenin to the minimarket nights like this, even back, you buy me ice cream".

Dila is still standing in front of the minimarket, the vehicle is still crowded, so it has not dared to cross.

Kunto patted Dila on the shoulder, making Dila look towards Kunto.

" What if it's dinner, you should eat Dil rice?", asked Kunto looking at Dila, while enjoying the ice cream in her hand.

" Why?", he asked.

" Not far from here there is a chicken noodle maker who is recommended, the taste is guaranteed good, you want to try it?", asked Kunto.

" May also, but the price is expensive is not Mas?", Dila still have to take into account his expenses as frugal as possible.

" It's only 10 grand, but guaranteed you will be full, and sleep well tonight. Once you try, you will want to come there again" Kunto assured.

" Okay then, tonight we eat chicken noodles recommendation Mas Kun only".

Dila followed Kunto's steps down the sidewalk, towards the chicken noodle maker who said super tasty.

They were in the tent quite widely read,

... ' Bang Kodir's chicken noodles, Halalan toyiban '...

Kunto went into the tent and immediately ordered chicken noodles, "Bang pesen chicken noodles two, the usual one, use the head huh Bang. Drinking water alone, again frugally, understand the old date", Kunto joked at Bang Kodir.

" Okay Kun, in wait for a moment, again make a sitting in the corner Sono first".

If heard from the conversation, it looks like Kunto and the chicken noodle seller already know each other and are quite familiar.

" Must be the seller of chicken noodles his name is Bang Kodir yes Mas Kun?", said Dila Lirih.

" Yes, his name is clearly written in his stall tent. Just for information, if the Kodir bang is not here, he is native to Jakarta", whispered Kunto. The distance between the two of them was indeed very close, because the tent stalls were crowded with buyers, and almost all the seats were filled.

" Tumbenan.., just this time you come bring a girl, usually the same mulu lu!", Kodir bang accent sounds typical like Betawi people.

" Yes Bang, this is a new neighbor in the rented, it was out of the minimarket together, so all I invite you to eat here".

Bang Kodir serves two bowls of chicken noodles for Kunto and Dila, "Pinteran lu montihnya, a clear girl like so pantesan you bring here, fit dah cave if clear like this. Can make Kun's offspring better".

Dila knew what the brother of the noodle seller said, making him feel uncomfortable.

" Don't be so Bang, Dila already has in the village, Abang also know that I also in the village there are candidates. We're both just neighbors".

Kunto tries to explain their relationship to the brother of the chicken noodle seller, so that Dila feels comfortable.

" Lu is a loyal man, very rarely cave men like you in the overseas, mostly on wavering and forget the same in the village, the same excitement of clear girls that can be seen and held every day here" said the brother.

" Sister could have learned with brother who is also loyal, even though the wife in Pulo gadung, met only once a week if Abang holiday sales, even though he was also loyal, but you don't look at the pretty girls here", praise Kunto while enjoying chicken noodles plus his favorite chicken head.

" Life is just once Kun, want nyari who how again, bini cave has sacrificed a lot for the cave, has already received a cave that is only a chicken noodle maker, even though bini gua anak juragan empang. Will nyesel kalo kalo gua sampe nyakin liver bini cave", explained the brother.

" Bener bang, do not hurt the heart of a woman who has sacrificed a lot for us, because we are also born from the womb of a woman. I always thought of my late mother if I wanted to hurt a girl's feelings".

Finished eating chicken noodles Kunto and Dila crossed the already pretty deserted road. While on the road there is an incoming call from Nino at HP Dila. Dila just remembered that Nino had sent a message to him, but had not been read until now. It was so fun to enjoy chicken noodles which turned out to taste good.

Dila saw the screen of his phone that was dead, but when it got to the empty yard again there was an incoming call from Nino.

" Who is Dil?, your TTM?, why not lift?". Kunto stopped in the middle of an empty yard.

" What is TTM?, he is not my friend but my friend, because Nino is a calm guy, no friend at all" said Dila so innocently.

" TTM means not friend but friendly, but 'friend but confusing', try you think, how not confusing, he does not express love or say I love you with you, just like you, but he calls every day and asks you about it, attention-grabbing, but not family or relatives. Isn't that rich guy confusing".

" Don't mending explain how your relationship with him" Kunto said giving advice.

" He told me once, asked me to wait for him to finish college, and get a job, then he would talk seriously to my father" Dila replied to tell.

" Here he calls again, I pick up first yes, mumpung here is not too rame, if it was on the highway, want to be picked up the phone also his voice is not obvious buzzing, because it was noisy with the sound of the vehicle" Dila said as she touched the green button, receiving a phone call from Nino.

Dila also stopped first in a quiet empty yard.

" Hello No, sorry I was out of the minimarket, so just scrapped HP, you chat y, sorry haven't been perfect" said Dila as she walked back to the rented. Kunto also followed Dila's steps while illuminating the path Dila was about to cross with his cellphone.

" How was the first day of activities there?", Nino's voice was heard by Kunto quite loudly because Dila and Kunto were walking at close range.

" Thank God it was a medical examination, and all the tests passed, tomorrow just follow the psychotest and physical tests, as his mentor was told to bring sports clothes tomorrow".

Dila got hired, and unlocked his room.

" Thank you Mas Kun, it has been cemented" said Dila Lirih while distancing her phone so that her voice was not heard by Nino.

" Okay, just relax" Nino replied as she walked into her room.

" Where did you two run out of, Kun?" Evan was already in the room when Kunto entered.

" So nemenin Dila to minimarket", replied Kunto briefly, while laying down on her mattress. Kunto was focused on listening to Dila's conversation with a friend but confused, whose relationship with Dila was not clear.

" Have you eaten Kun?, we're looking for food yuk?, I'm the laper", again Evan disturbed the concentration of Kunto who was eavesdropping on Dila's talk.

" I've eaten noodles at the end of the road there, same Dila" Kunto replied as necessary.

" Why don't you take me anyway, go eat chicken noodles with anyone other than Dila?", Evan began to talk in a loud tone.

Kunto finally looked at Evan astonished, "you why the hell Van?, I just invited you back from the mosque for dinner together, he said, you said you wanted to sit in the mosque first and tell me to come back first".

" Because I'm hungry, and Dila asked to be sent to the minimarket, yes I have finally invited Dila to eat chicken noodles together so that there is a meal".

Evan suddenly moved from his slump with a face like an angry person, then came out of the room without saying a word.

" That's the child why the hell, did his PDKT fail earlier, why even his emotions are the same as me anyway, I'm wrong what try?", Kunto again focused on listening to Dila's conversation who was on the phone. But Dila's voice was no longer heard, maybe Dila's conversation over the phone was over.

" Since Evan keeps talking unclear, so I can't hear Dila's chat with the guy", Inner Kunto, felt furious.

Kunto heard the sound of Dila's room door being opened, Kunto decided to leave the room. Who knows, we can talk to Dila.

" Where is Dil going?", asked Kunto to see Dila walking out.

" Wau wudhu, had not prayed Isa, wanted to pray in the room, because it was late, was fitting Adzan Isa we again eat chicken noodles at the stall bang Kodir". Please walk back to the bathroom and wash your face and brush your teeth before going to bed.

Kunto felt a little disappointed because he could not continue to chat with Dila, whether the feeling of what possessed Kunto, which obviously Kunto felt comfortable when chatting or doing something with Dila. But Kunto's mind still denies that she has a crush or interest in Dila, because Kunto already has a boyfriend in the village. And all this time his relationship with his girlfriend was always fine even though they were dating long distance.

For the future Kunto hopes everything will remain fine as it has been through all this time. Maybe his attention to Dila because he felt Dila was a good girl who had to be protected from association in a big city that was already very free.
