Married With My First Love (Travel Story of Lantern Love And Scintillating)
40.Announcement
Three days after the new year...
On Wednesday morning, Lantern was still in his room, sitting in a sofa with a laptop he held.
He stared at the laptop screen he had just bought a month ago, from the work he had collected over several months.
He stared at his graduation announcement there, with a strange face.
Because he was accepted, it means that soon he will leave the house Gilang, leave many memories in this City, leave his first love.
He thought about a lot of things in his room.
What was the fate of his mother, what if he was unable to survive in the Land of people, what if Gilang forgot him, what if Gilang found someone else who was more worthy before he managed to express his feelings.
He hit his chest that felt tight.
Although he was as strong as he could endure to not cry, but his tears spilled as well.
Afraid that her mother would come in and see her, she went into the bathroom and lit a water faucet, standing in front of the sink staring at her face in the mirror in front of her.
How sad.
For almost four years he was still a pathetic man, a fool who loved in silence.
Thirty minutes in there, the water flowing down his leg made him realize.
He hurriedly wiped his face, then got out of there.
He stood stunned in front of the bathroom door.
Gilang sat down on the sofa while looking at his laptop seriously.
..."Mas Gilang's..."...
Gilang just stared fixedly at Tera.
It was obvious that there was sadness on his face.
..."Mas Gilang's..." Call Tera again....
..."You're graduating."...
..."Yes mas Gilang, mas what is there?"...
..."Oh yes, so I was told to call you, he said from earlier you were called but did not hear."...
Tera was silent, she did not know she should feel happy or sad at this moment.
He finally finds his dream, but it will make him lose time with Gilang.
..."You still like to cry silently?"...
..."Did you mean Gilang?"...
..."Sorry, I didn't overhear you crying from the bathroom, the door wasn't closed."...
..."Mas Gilang mending out right now, then the same mother who is other even nyariin mas Gilang here too."...
Tera tried to divert the conversation.
Gilang melengos left Tera.
He was upset, but somehow upset because of something which.
Gilang has arrived in the kitchen, but Tera has not followed.
..."Nak Gilang, Which side?"...
..."Don't know bude, so he's in the bathroom, now don't know what."......
..."Walah, the boy did anyway, from earlier told to help, but did not appear."...
..."Already bude, maybe he's tired, we eat there aja, not papa really." Haris appears behind Gilang....
..."I'm sorry Tera yes, so I did not have time to make another breakfast, usually my work so quickly if Tera helpin."...
..."No papa bude, most of the same mother has gone to the office, so the only one who eats us."...
Gilang who had found Tera crying, can only pretend not to know.
Finished eating, he was still waiting for Tera to come out.
Until the wall clock shows at half-nine in the morning, the camera has not yet come out.
Nur's mother, who had finished washing dishes, was ready to come to her son in the room.
Gilang had gone out to the family room, because from there he could see whether Tera was in the kitchen or not.
...Nur's mother went into the room and found her son asleep hugging his laptop....
..." Geez this kid, why do you like to sleep so early in the morning."...
Nur's mother grumbled alone while pulling the laptop from Tera's embrace.
Then looked at Tera's puffy face.
Mother Nur, who was forty years old, felt the sadness of her son.
Without asking, he already knew that Tera had received an announcement from the campus.
Since childhood, they have never been apart.
And this year his little boy had to leave himself to go alone as well.
The lantern awoke from feeling her head being rubbed off by her mother.
..."Mum..."...
..."You here, why sleep this early in the morning, mother until did not have time to masakin mas Gilang same mas Haris, because you do not help mother."...
..."Hehe sorry mom, I just saw the announcement, fell asleep, they're still at home mom?"...
..."Yes, from earlier we were sitting in the kitchen alone, do not know what."...
..."Must be waiting for me to take a storm, ma'am,hehe."...
..."You're here, we're out quick, we're having breakfast."...
..."What's mom cooking?"...
..."Yo have not had time to cook, so they both also only eat bread, he said to eat like that."...
..."What do we have for breakfast?"...
..."Just like them, you want to eat what they are..."...
They stepped out of the room.
Sit in the kitchen both.
Gilang who saw Tera, finally felt calm.
He's in college by noon, so can relax this morning with Haris.
Finished with his breakfast, Tera immediately helped his mother to wash the clothes that still looked a little.
..."Ma'am, the clothes are still a little, but still clean it."...
..."Tera, you are, precisely because it is still a little so it must be washed, before stacking and make us overwhelmed."...
..."Emh yes ma'am."...
..."Oh yes, this is a little because it looks like Gilang has not brought down his dirty clothes, you can take it up."...
..."Yes ma'am, I'll take ya."...
The lantern immediately ran small towards Gilang room.
But stopped his steps while in front of the stairs.
..."Where to."...
..."Go to Gilang's room, told my mother to get dirty clothes."...
..."Oh, don't take it, I'll take it down."...
..."Okay deh."...
..."Tera..."...
..."Why is Gilang..."...
..."Make me milk."...
..."It was breakfast."...
..."But now I want milk."...
Tera shook her head, then left Gilang and made her go to the kitchen.
He returned to the guest room, giving milk to Gilang.
..."If there's any more need, call me, I'll help you with the laundry."...
..."Ready for Tera, but I need you again."...
..."That means."...
..."Yes I need you, you can sit here for a while."...
..."But I have to work for Gilang..."...
..."Yeah, you sat here for a second."...
Gilang left Tera who was still standing confused.
..."Bude, I can minjam Tera for a second."...
..."Loh, so he said he wanted to take dirty clothes in the room nak Gilang, but do not know now where."...
..."He's in the bude guest room, I'll have a little chat."...
..."Yes son Gilang, may, but it was immediately told to help bude ya."...
..."Ready bude."...
Gilang returned to the living room, Tera was already sitting on the sofa where he was sitting earlier.
..."Why did Gilang, a package said, I want to help mom."...
..."Yeah, yeah, a minute..."...
Gilang instead sat looking at him, while enjoying a glass of milk Tera made for him.
..."Just keep me here for a second."...
..."Geez mas, I do a lot, was told to sit here, after this, mass Gilang want to help me."...
..."I'll help you later."...
Fifteen minutes they were sitting there, really just sitting without a sound.
Gilang had finished his milk.
Tera stood up and took the empty glass in front of her.
..."It's already Gilang, don't be weird anymore, I want to work."...
Gilang was silent in his place, while staring at the back of Tera who left him.
Being left alone in the kitchen makes him feel strange.
Especially if you go abroad sometime...
...*...
..."Tera when are you leaving." asked Jullie's mother while they were in the kitchen....
..."Mid-February ma'am, because college starts in March."...
..."Oh yeah, not this month."...
..."No ma'am, too fast, hehe."...
..."Your documents are all done."...
..."Almost ma'am, next week want to take care of Visa same passport first."...
..."You can be alone?"...
..."Can't be, hehe..."...
..."If you can't, you can ask for help with Gilang, don't hesitate to ask for help yes."...
..."Yes ma'am..."...
..."Tera, why study abroad anyway?" Grumpy beside his mother....
..."Let's not see the Gilang mas continue, the end of the mas resek really."...
..."Let it rest like this, but you like it..."...
...Gilang....
..."Sorry mom's son Ra, if he likes to disturb you."...
..."No ma'am, hehe."...
They laughed together over their dinner.
