Episode 9 Trying (part 3)

Naldo rode his bike quickly, joining the rest of the riders on a busy highway. Even though the road is quite jammed, because the last day of the weekday and tomorrow is already the weekend. The habit of people living in the capital spending the night after a full week of work, whether by eating out with family, watching the cinema or just a walk in the mall entertain themselves. That's why the streets are always jammed.

When Naldo's red light stopped his bike and picked up the phone in his jacket pocket.It looks like a message came in, he opened the green app on his phone and sure enough there was a chat from Adit. "Where is gue nyampe? ask Adit in his chat. Naldo immediately replied to the message "I am still on the road, 10 minutes more nyampe,lo wait me in front yes, click the send button and the message reached Adit. Naldo returned after the traffic light turned green. It was not until 10 minutes as he had expected, Naldo had already arrived at the restaurant he was referring to. After parking his motorbike he immediately met Adit who was waiting for him in the lobby of the restaurant. They entered the restaurant together.

Uli had arrived at the restaurant Naldo had been telling him about 20 minutes ago. When he entered the restaurant, he had not found Naldo's figure there. Uli chose to sit at a table close to the window, from the window was seen the crowds of the highway in the capital. Uli chose to wait, so he wanted to send a message to Naldo to inform him that he had arrived at the restaurant. But he paused it thinking maybe Naldo was on the way.

A servant approached Uli who was sitting alone. "May you want a message now? ask the waiter. Later mbak, I am still waiting for a friend replied Uli. The waiter nodded and smiled and left Uli at his desk. Uli looked around at the person in the restaurant. A couple had dinner together at the restaurant. Uli who saw him imagined that if he was in that position.

While watching the visitors who passed by in the restaurant. His eyes swept over the entire side of the restaurant.When looking towards the door he saw the figure he was waiting for entering along with someone unknown to him. Naldo looked even cooler in Uli's eyes with his performance that night. Uli smiled as the two people walked towards him.

　

Naldo and Adit enter the restaurant together. Naldo swept through the corner of the room and saw Uli sitting by the window not far from his place and Adit standing. Uli was seen smiling when he saw the two of them walking towards him. Uli stood up as Naldo and Adit arrived at his desk. Uli and Adit get acquainted.Li, this is Adit who yesterday I said the same lo, said Naldo.Uli nodded his head and then the three of them pulled their seats to sit down.

A servant approached the three of them and recorded his order. After the waiter left Adit started a conversation with Uli. Was it long Li?ask Adit. No, replied Uli. A waiter delivered the orders of the three of them and stopped their conversation earlier. After the servant left, the three of them went back to the chat with dinner. Where do you work Li?ask Adit again. Actually he was curious about the girl who was with them, why until Naldo's parents liked him so much.

I'm a nurse at the hospital A replied Uli. It just so happens that today again no night shift will be able to come here, replied Uli. Oh, Adit replied. Finally his goal was reached Uli's workplace finally known by Naldo, maybe, his best friend also wanted to ask the same thing but Adit understood with Naldo.He must be prestige to ask. Finally Adit represented Naldo to ask. How are you working today?naldo finally opened his voice. It was also not so many patients who had to be treated, Uli replied.They returned to eating while still chatting with each other.

After a long chat and the clock has shown at 21:00. The three men decided to go home. Adit had already passed first to the parking lot to pick up his car. Li Lo back with me said Naldo. Uli who had wanted to order an ojek online was a little surprised by the stone man beside him. Tumben this stone man is very good, Uli mempatin. Ayok, said Naldo while walking towards the parking lot.Uli finally followed Naldo from behind.

 " Bang Naldo I came home alone with nothing, Uli said at last after almost arriving at the parking lot. Why is that, you don't want me anther?tanya Naldo was confused. That's not it, fear ngerepotin aja, replied Uli honestly. He was still not sure the stone man had suddenly turned good to him. Uda ayok do not have to be afraid, I was good again nih.Naldo pulled Uli's right hand and took him to the jetty. Naldo pulled out a helmet from the trunk of his motorcycle. Use it, the command to Uli. Uli received the helmet and immediately put it on. Uli was sitting on Naldo's bonnet, but he was very awkward.

　

*Home of the Uli

They both arrived at Uli's house. Immediately Uli removed his hand from Naldo's waist and got off the motor. Uli gave the helmet he wore to Naldo. After attaching the two helmets that they had used on the motorbike, Naldo came down from the motorbike. Uli looked confused by the attitude of the man in front of him. "Tumben, Uli told Naldo. So I can't stop by?ask Naldo. Uli just smiled and took Naldo home. They both sat on the porch of Uli's house.

"Thank you bang Uli said starting their conversation. Uli returned to the terrace and brought a glass of water to Naldo. Thanks for what? ask Naldo. Yes, thank you for coming home, replied Uli. Equally, Naldo replied in the end. Li, what do you think I am?ask Naldo to Uli.  How's what?tanya Uli was even confused asked so by Naldo. Yes first know me, according to you I am how?tanya Naldo clarified the question.

" I honestly think Naldo is a strange person. First time to know the cuek really, even nomong aja irit, replied Uli honestly. Naldo smiled at Uli's reply. I had guessed the answer lo would be like that said Naldo. So now how do you ask again. Hmm now yes, it's still the same, it's just light. You have started talking a lot now, replied Uli.

Li I think I want to try, Naldo said after taking a breath. It was difficult for him to say such things to Uli at this moment. Trying to do what bang? tanya Uli was confused. Yes trying to make the desire mamak same father, you will try to get to know you more deeply. That's also if you don't mind, Naldo said. Uli was confused to answer how Naldo said that. One side of him was happy to hear Naldo was finally willing to try as he expected. But on the other hand, Uli is still not confident if you have to be with Naldo later.

"Yes I'm grateful that bang Naldo finally decided to follow the request of aunt Mida, but I myself am also not too sure could be a good companion for bang Naldo said Uli honestly. Yes, I can't say I deserve you, but we can both Li's efforts. I just want to see my parents happy to see that I can fulfill their request, Naldo replied. Uli nodded his head and replied, yes we are both trying, replied Uli. Their conversation continued until 23:00 before Naldo finally returned home. Since first getting to know, the chat was the longest chat between the two Naldo was increasingly confident in his decision and hoped to get a good result. Naldo returns home with feelings that are hard to explain. He hasn't felt like that in a long time.

Uli went into the house after Naldo came home. He washed his face before going to the room to rest. Uli smiled himself remembering his chatter with Naldo earlier. Uli hope that their efforts can give good results later, regardless of their match or not. Uli fell asleep soundly.
