Merapi Never Ingkar Janji 2 (The Return of the Sultan)
SS. 34. A Offer From Al
Last night Tata thought about the offer Al had given him.
"If you want, you can come at any time." So said Al that night.
For now, Tata has not been able to give an answer. To be sure, it was only the calmness of heart that he wanted.
But for Nindya, this morning she promised to see him.
"Tomorrow at eight I picked up" So Al said when Tata expressed his intention.
Although Tata had refused, Al remained in his stance. Before leaving, she made her favorite cake and pudding Nindya.
"Everything's ready, just take a shower first." Ocehnya himself.
This morning, despite the foggy clouds, Tata hoped that her heart would remain bright, as bright as the shining sun.
By wearing a blouse of color tosca and matching accessories, she is so beautiful, graceful and looks fresh to the eye.
Tok ... tok ...
The front door was knocked on by someone.
"That must be Mr. Al. Tumben doesn't say hello." Mumbled himself.
He saw an already sweet watch perched on his left wrist.
"Not yet at eight, it's here." His grunt.
Tata opened the door that he had not opened since this morning. Usually at this hour, he has opened the door of his rented house, so that air circulation can enter perfectly.
"Wa'alaikumsalam." Ledek Tata who was used to hearing greetings from Al, but this morning, either forgotten or intentionally, only small beats that he heard from inside.
"Tata, wait !" Shouted his guests, forcing the door to open again. With all her might Tata tried to close her, but her power was not worth the outside push she got.
"Open Ta, I want to talk !" Shouts again.
"There's nothing to talk about, get out of here, or I'll scream !" Jerit Tata is not less challenging.
Andri, I don't know where she got her address now. Tata had tried to stay away and pulled over to the outskirts of the city, so that he could not meet again with Andri.
But it turns out to be wrong, not only does Al find him, but Andri too.
"I'm sorry, I was scared at the time." Whimpering begs.
Andri rests in front of Anita, trying to show that she really wants to apologize.
"I won't stand until you forgive me." Persuaded it.
"Nothing is to be forgiven, everything is past, I don't want to remember anymore." Answer the stupid.
"That's not enough for me, I want you to really forgive me from Ta's heart." No matter what other moves Andri gives, Tata already does not care.
"Stand up, don't be like a child, shy at seeing the neighbors."
"Foolish with the neighbors."
Increasingly, Tata felt uncomfortable and irritated by Andri's treatment.
"Whatever you want. Sorry, I have business."
Andri deftly grabbed Anita's wrist, before she could turn around leaving her.
"Take me off Mas." The roar is no longer concerned.
"If in a subtle way you can't, I'll use a way you'd rather." Threatened him.
"What do you mean ?"
Tata began to fear, his body shivering, his hands trembling. She wanted to cry, but her tears were already dry.
He tried to hold himself back with all his might, as Andri began to violently pull his hand.
"Take him off !" There was a tone of anger from someone very familiar.
The shock, making Andri release Tata's wrist.
At that moment, he tried to stand up and try to seek refuge.
"Mas Al." His words were soft, which out of nowhere he could say the word 'Mas' back then.
"Are you okay ?" Bisik Al's.
Tata stands right behind Al. Whether intentionally or not, the two fingers stumbled at each other. Hold each other.
"You who ? Don't interfere, it's my business with Tata." Gertak Andri's.
"You don't need to know who I am. But whatever is Tata's business, will be mine too." Say Al ready to install the body.
"Who is Ta ? Is it because of this man, you rejected me !" Ask Andri again.
Tata was silent. Andri's question makes Al feel like he's above the clouds. His grip was getting tighter the more he tightened.
If not in an emergency, I want Tata to complain of pain. Al's strong hands are not worth Tata's tiny fingers in his hands.
"Quick get out of here, before I call the citizens to expel you." Al said trying to be patient.
"Don't say too much, it should be you who left here, not me." Andri Elak.
The commotion was no longer inevitable. It does not rule out the possibility of it inviting the attention of neighbors around.
"What is this ? Why are you guys making such a fuss here in the morning ?" Ask one of the surrounding residents who saw there was a crowd in Tata's rented house.
"This is sir, early in the morning the guest has made trouble." Reply to one of the people at the scene.
"Blogo ... The father who came last night, didn't he ?" Ask the Father who was last night to greet Al when he first met at the rented house anita.
"Oh yes, I_"
"Yes sir, this is Mr. Al. My boss, and it just so happened that this morning he wanted to pick me up to be a caretaker while in the hospital, because his daughter was sick." Tata interrupted Al's speech.
"Yes Mbak Tata, I also had a conversation last night with Mr. Al. Who is this, then ?" Ask the father again, who incidentally is a chairman of the neighboring pillars.
"He's my friend Sir_"
"To be precise I'm Anita Pak's girlfriend, and I don't like her being close to this man." Andri answered with his fingertips pointing to Jidat Al.
"Dear talk, he's nobody to me sir. But this morning he's been disrespectful in my house." Answer Tata firmly.
"Yes sir, I also saw earlier, this Mas tugging at Mbak Atta's hand." A mother said to defend.
"Well, yes. Better get out of here. Before I report to the local authorities." Said Mr. RT wise.
Mfaqiv ... !
Andri kicked the wooden chair on the porch, before he finally left the residence of Anita.
"Mr, Mother, I'm sorry. Sorry if I interrupted your morning activities, ladies and gentlemen." Anita said apologizing.
"Gakpapa Mbak Tata, if there is anything, do not hesitate to say the same Mr." Said Mr. RT.
"Thank you so much, sir, Mom." Al also said.
"Together Mr. Al, then we'll excuse you first. Please continue with your activities." He said again.
Awkward, that's what they both feel after the departure of the father, the mother of the people around.
"I, in the first sir, have something to bring to Nindya." Tata's speech breaks the mood.
"Hhhhmmmm, yes." Al's answer sounds wrong.
Like a driver and an employer who stay in one vehicle. Without talking or discussing new things. The chance for both of them to talk is very much.
"Thank you sir." The word Tata finally opened the sound.
"Thank you for what ?" Question Al flat.
"Thank you for saving me."
A golden opportunity for Al to reassure Tata of his offer last night.
"Hahaha.I don't feel like doing anything. But considering what happened earlier, you better consider what I said last night." Al said again.
"I'll reconsider."
The answer ended the conversation between the two of them.
