LOVE WITHOUT SPACE
MAS MUKTI MAKIN KEQI ON AYYA
“A long time ago Sir?” ask Mukti.
“New Mas Mukti. Once I arrived here, there was an announcement to bring a new Mas plane to landing,” said Om Yapie who picked up Mukti and Komang Ayu at the airport.
“Hotelnya where?” ask Mukti to Yapie.
“Kan not at Mas hotel? Yesterday Mama said,” said Ayya reminded Mukti.
“Oh yes, I forgot that Om Ariel gave us one house to stay together for this event,” Mukti replied while installing his seat belt.
“Batul,” says Om Yapie with his Ambon accent.
“Dong no case ruma one block from Mr. Sjahrir's house. Ruma basar with 7 rooms. But yesterday I got some mattresses to hold. If less later will be caved mattress lai,” clear om Yapie. Sonny still understands Ambon, but Mukti does not understand what Yaapie says. He can only guess.
Abu did put all his family in the house so the family from Jember also lived there. Including Laksmi and his children from Surabaya. Initially he will rent a hotel close to the event venue, but Ariel prospective besan who is also his best friend forbid and provide one empty house.
“Let our young ones later outside do nothing,” Mukti said.
“That's suda Mas. Just organized. Yesterday we had more mattresses so no one slept on the couch.
”Seven rooms are enough anyway. One for mama papa, second for Eyang Angga and Eyang Soetiono, third for Pakde Pras fourth for Pakde Pram, fifth for aunt Laksmi, sixth for Komang Ayu and seventh for me and Aksa.” Count Mukti.
“Enough as it may be, no more additional families. Children and grandchildren can join in the parents' room with a mattress floor,” Mukti replied next.
“Later if there is an additional can add mattress. Again, only until the event will be done, after that all moved to the house of Mr. Ariel,” explained om Yapie.
“We'll see, mama must have arranged everything,” said Mukti.
“Yesterday Mr. Ariel said like that, after a direct agreement all stay at home he should not be in the front house. If before the agreement for the formality it is so that the bride-to-be is not one house.”
“Mas you don't count Mas Sonny. You need one room of your own. Let me just the one in the outer mattress is nothing,” cut Ayya.
“Which women can be outside the room. Let it be later and Aksa aja who caved.”
Mukti and Ayya are still keeping their mouths together. They are still equally unrepentant for things that are not urgent.
“Assalamu’alaykum,” greet Komang Ayu while reaching out to Angga.
Angga welcomed the helping hand and immediately pulled Ayu for him to hug. Angga considers Ayu to be his grandson.
“That misses you the most beautiful grandson of Eyang,” said Angga. It was natural for him to say that because his 5 grandchildren were no girls.
Ayu also kissed the back of Angga's hand as well as the cheeks of the old man.
“Already dong Eyang, over,” protest his son-in-law.
“Mama I miss,” said Ayu while peeling the back of Ambar's hand, then continued with a close hug both.
“Mama also miss you,” both women continue to hug
“Sama Papa enggak kangen?” tanya Abu waiting for his turn.
“Kangen is Pa. The same kangeen all the more the same Aksa. Where's that handsome lover of my heart?” answer Ayu.
“He was in the back garden with Fahri and Farhan,” Abu replied after receiving salim from Ayu.
“Loh Aunt Laksmi is here?”
“Tante Laksmi this morning came, it should be tomorrow but it turns out they also have no patience to gather a large family,” Angga replied.
“I salim Aunty first,” Ayu said after he salim to Abu.
‘They didn't even notice me who was his son or grandson. I really have been displaced once there is the presence of Ayya, Mukti's inner’ that is still keki Ayya.
