The day was so hot, people as usual did all their activities. Including Nina, she continues to work amid feelings that continue to question when Arlan will return, or if Arlan will leave Nina.
Even while working, Nina did not concentrate so much, when she met the clients Nina again lost her focus. Even to the point that Nina canceled the meeting with some clients.
"Our boss why the hell?. From that day on?"
"Yes, even those who are usually firm, suddenly become like I don't care"
It is true that today Nina looks different. Even all employees know that Nina is the type of person who is firm and perfectionist. If you see something that is not neat or late, you do not hesitate to scold the person.
"Boss want me to bring you some coffee?" Nina's assistant asked, seeing Nina who was so lethargic
"Not to." Just answer Nina
Hearing that, Nina's assistant could only obey. Even so Nina still continues to work, in the middle of thoughts that accumulate in the head.
-------------------------------------------------
In the village of Arlan seen after returning from the market. Arlan walks with some groceries, even on the way home Arlan is always greeted by people around.
You could say the people in Arlan village are quite terrible. How not the stature of the big guys even in equipped with tattoos all over his body. But even though it looks so, people are so friendly with Arlan. Maybe a little slow to explain it, Arlan actually also has a tattoo, namely on his back. Pedan-shaped tattoo that is wrapped around a cobra snake.
Nina actually sees it sometimes, but doesn't understand it. Nina felt that maybe the tattoo was art for Arlan.
"Woyy Arlan" some people call from a stall
Instantly hearing someone calling Arlan turned his head towards them. Some people waved their hands towards Arlan. And Arlan walked over to them, from the smile on Arlan's face it seemed like they were Arlan's friends.
"When do we go home?" While sipping coffee
"Yesterday just arrived. How are you guys doing?" Arlan sat on the bench
"Still rich first. Yes, even if there is a little problem because you have not joined again"
"I'm tired of the mall" while breathing
The man who called Arlan was named Ikmal. Ikmal is a close friend of Arlan as well, even all the time Arlan was together was spent with Ikmal.
"Yes know. You deserve to change" Ikmal ate the beans he peeled
"How are you doing too?."
"Yes that. Kayak Ikmal haha"
Some people laughed and heard the big man's words. Arlan laughed at them. Plus the attitude of those who seemed familiar with Arlan.
"Crazy Lan, now the cooking gini?. I used to hit." While laughing out loud. And not yet finished laughing the man immediately fell silent to see the people around him looking at him.
"Take a mouth next time" suddenly the big man was holding the collar shirt of the man who was laughing out loud earlier.
"Udah Jo doesn't have emotions. It's not wrong" Arlan smiled as he pulled the hand of a big man named Jo.
Even when Jo's hand was taken off the man. Jo looked at him sharply.
"You take good care of yourself. I'll be back tomorrow to my wife's place"
"It was very quick to turn around" said Ikmal
"I'm just here for Rinko's mother's grave pilgrimage"
"You are calm, we also often make pilgrimages to your mother's death with Rinko. Even your house has Carla looking after"
"Yes, I know. Thanks help. Then I'll go home first"
After talking to Arlan's old friend. Arlan walked home. The nuances of the village still remain the same, yes obviously the same after all Arlan only went about a month more. So what's going to change, and so is the human being here is still the same.
Arriving at Arlan's house immediately cleaned up and continued with cooking. Unknowingly, Arlan was too cool to clean the house, even when finished cleaning Arlan, more fun looking at old family photos.
Evening arrives, Carla walks towards Arlan's house, with neat clothes, long clothes and jeans. Of course the reason Carla used those clothes to cover her tattoo. Because Darla feels uncomfortable with it that makes her seen by many people.
Tok Tok Tok!!!!
A knocking sound was heard from outside. Arlan opened the door and saw that Carla was waiting. "Have you been neat?"
"Tonight will walk" waving her hair
"Let's eat the new way"
"Thank you for the food"
"Well, are we going there?" Arlan stood up from his seat
"I can't wait too"
That night Arlan and Carla walk towards the exhibition event, without a vehicle. Even while walking Carla never stopped taking her eyes off of Arlan, such a deep sense of liking made her want to hug Arlan. But he realized he couldn't do that
"_patience Carla you just have to be patient, until the time comes" Carla said in her mind
Arriving at the exhibition so many people. Some people are so engrossed in the view in front of each of them. When Carla arrived there so confused to want to do, because there was too much to do
"Where are we going?" Carla asked while looking at Arlan
"We'll go first" Arlan pointed to the accessories store
"Yaudah yuk"
Arlan was so busy looking at the bracelets in the glass cabinet, like he was choosing something Arlan was so careful to pay attention to everything.
"All I want is this one, keep this one" Arlan pointed at a bracelet"
After getting the goods that Arlan bought. Arlan immediately pairs a purple bracelet into Carla's hand, which makes Carla surprised to see it.
"Here's her hand, try the bracelet first" Arlan pulled Carla's hand
"This is for me?"
"Yes for a memento" Arlan was busy putting the bracelet in Carla's hand
Seeing that Carla smiled widely. Carla felt that night was a very special night, even though the bracelet that Arlan gave her was not fancy. But still it's not about price, it's about sincerity.
Seeing Carla who was very happy, Arlan also seemed to be happy, Arlan felt it was not in vain to choose the bracelet for Carla
"_thank you Carla likes it. Think of this as a thank you to him, plus Carla Arlan has considered kayak adek itself so no problem"_
After giving the bracelet away, Arlan and Carla continued to walk and look around. So much to do, Arlan and Carla seemed to have fun. Starting from buying a few snacks, to some fun games.
Unscreened they both have passed a few hours, and when they realize it is so late, Arlan immediately invites Carla to return home.
"We go home yuk. It was late at night too"
Carla who was licking the ice cream just nodded. And as a man of course Arlan drove Carla home. The night felt so short for Carla, but Carla did not regret it because she felt so happy.
"Thank you, you want to walk with me" Carla stood at the door
"Yes alike. It's late in the night, it's not good to see people"
"Who would dare?" Carla laughed while raising her eyebrows
Hearing Carla's words, Arlan simply smiled. When Carla got into the house, Arlan walked home.
"Have a gift" Arlan looked at the red bracelet he had bought earlier at the accessories store.
-------------------------------------------------
That afternoon Arlan was packing, and Carla even helped to pack. And on the porch of the house also seen some people who are none other than Arlan's friends.
"Is everything in order?" Ask Carla
"Sip has it all" Arlan immediately walked and carried his luggage, and put in the trunk of a taxi that would take Arlan to his wife's place.
"Bang bring the right car. If there's anything our brother's looking for"
Hearing that instantly the driver could only nod with a frightened face. How not Jo said that while shaking the driver's car.
"Udah Jo don't be afraid of his brother. Sorry, my friend is joking"
Seeing Jo's behavior made the other friends laugh, while the driver could only shut up. And when all was ready Arlan immediately got into the car and prepared to leave.
"I'll say goodbye first. You guys take care of yourself right"
The car left Arlan's hometown. Some of Arlan's friends waved at Arlan. A day so short but so happy for Arlan. And now Arlan will return to Nina's place.
