Shedding down for a while in fact did not make the fatigue that Melati felt extinct, he got back up and decided to take a shower, considering he had been doing all day outside the house, he was back up and decided to take a bath, considering he had been doing activities outside the house, enough to make his body feel sticky.
Not felt, now the clock has shown at 22:40 pm, Melati who just came out of the bathroom in her hair that has been wrapped in a towel, and, make it feel so much fresher that it delays to sleep.
Melati chose to sit at her study table, then began to reach for a book that turned out in the book that she wrote all her manuscripts with handwriting, then if there is free time, then if there is free time, he then took it to an internet shop to retype and print it.
"It's so painful." His complaints while spitting his fingers that feel sore because of continuous writing.
"From now on I have to save, my next target is a laptop! Yeah, I need a laptop to ease my work on campus, or make it easier for me to write a script." He muttered alone.
Inadvertently his eyes glanced towards the plastic bag containing all the food and snacks he bought. Melati grabbed one of them and came back to find a box of cigarettes that she bought. With a slight hesitation, Melati began to open it, took out a cigarette and slipped it between her lips.
Smoke was seen lurking in the air when Melati had just burned her cigarette, some of the initial pull still made her cough a little, but in fact she kept trying, try and smoke that cigarette perfectly.
And that night, the first time Melati began to do something that was certainly not liked by her mother, Husna.
A few months later...
Day after day continued to pass like a wind that seemed to just pass by, as well as the moon, also alternating to the next month. Jasmine who was innocent, innocent, and obedient by the rules of her mother, now as if slowly beginning to disappear, she was lost in the swallow by the new Melati, the slightly more modern Melati, who was lost, Melati who is free to do whatever she wants, smoking, even she can eat instant noodles whenever she wants without any restrictions.
Jasmine with all the ambitions and life targets that he has set, one by one he began to get, starting from small things like laptops. Yes, finally he can buy a laptop as he wants from the results he set aside his salary for several months of work. Even the economy of his family in the village, also a little helped since Melati can send his mother money every month although not much.
That night, Melati looks very focused on writing a script on her new laptop, a script that she will later send to several PHs, hope there is a producer or director who glanced at the results of his writing to be a film, although until then it has not been achieved.
Not to forget, a cigarette that continues to tucked between his lips, as if to be a friend to him in stringing word for word. Whether it's how many cigarette butts are visible in the ashtray, Melati is already really addicted to cigarettes, now if not smoking makes it completely unable to concentrate in writing, he said,
A few hours passed, Melati began to feel her eyes start to get tired staring at the glued screen that she kept facing for hours. He began to lay his body on the bed, then glanced towards his left side where there was a cell phone there. The feeling of longing for his home in the village suddenly appeared, especially to Husna, his mother.
Melati also took the initiative to call her mother that night, no matter whether her mother was asleep or not, all she knew was, she wanted to hear her mother's voice.
While waiting, finally the soft voice that he missed was heard from behind the phone.
"Hello." Husna answered with a distinctive voice like a newly awakened person.
"Mother..." Jasmine.
Hearing the voice of his daughter, making both eyes Husna who was initially still closed, suddenly widened.
"Darken??" Said Husna while looking back at the screen of his cellphone which at that time was written 'Delink me dear'
"Mom's asleep, huh?." Melati asked with a soft smile.
"Oh baby, you haven't slept? Why haven't you slept? Did something happen?" Husna asked who rose from her sleep.
"No ma'am, I just miss mom. I don't know why I suddenly want to hear mom's voice."
"Oh baby, I miss you too. Even mom misses you every time. How are you today? You're all right?"
Husna was too excited when talking to Melati, so she forgot that the night was very late and Aryo who had fallen asleep by her side, so immediately felt disturbed.
"Geez Husna! who are you calling at night like this?! It's so noisy." Ketus Aryo who felt his sleep was disturbed.
"I'm talking to Melati!" Answer Husna briefly who then went straight out of the room with his cellphone.
"Son, why are you quiet?!" Husna asked as soon as he was in front of his house.
"Dad still scolded mom a lot?" Melati's voice this time sounded even smoother.
"Ah not also hehee. After all he was angry, it had become commonplace for mother."
Melati grunting.
"Have you forgotten about it, how was your college?"
"My college is certainly good, ma'am."
"Have any men approached you?" Ask Husna to investigate.
That question, somehow suddenly made Melati immediately imagined Vero's face. Yeah, the guy who's been acting really nice to her for the last few months.
"Jeez momuu, what kind of question is that?"
"Jawab mother's question, what's the trouble?"
"Nothing!" Strictly Melati lied.
"Nothing??" Husna asked in disbelief.
"Nobody's interested in my beautiful son? Haaais, it's impossible." Husna murmured as if he was thinking hard.
"Mom's haaiis, this country girl like me who likes it!! In this city, many women are much more beautiful and their appearance is also very attractive."
"really?"
"Here you go, ma'am, can't we talk about something else?" Complaints Melati who does not seem interested in discussing the problem of couples.
"Eeemm yes, yes hehehe. Why are you so angry now???!"
"So ma'am, maybe it's because I'm tired."
"Oh baby, rest enough. Don't stay up like this often. Oh yeah you remember mom's message, right?"
"Order what mom?"
"Do not eat instant noodles too often, do not follow promiscuity there, such as drunkenness, smoking, and *** free. Do you remember it, baby?" Husna asked as if expectantly.
Getting such questions, makes Melati suddenly silent for a moment, a feeling of guilt suddenly appeared, a feeling of guilt because in fact he had violated everything that was always forbidden by his mother. In fact, Melati has become an active smoker who can spend two packs of cigarettes a day.
"Son, why are you quiet? You heard mom, right?" Ask Husna slowly.
"Yes, yes, ma'am I heard. I didn't do it." Melati replied lying.
"Thank God, I'm sure you'll continue to listen to your words." Husna finally smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes ma'am." Reply Melati lirih.
There was a very unpleasant feeling when he had to lie to his mother, because the old Melati, was not at all good at lying, especially to Husna, he said, his mother who became a human is most understanding with the attitude and nature of Jasmine.
"You should always remember that, baby, never try those things, never start. Because if you've started it once, you'll want it again and again, until you're finally hooked and it's hard to stop."
Melati, upon hearing that, made her tears suddenly drip just like that.
"Mother was right, my fault was affected and started, now I'm stuck mom, and I can't stop smoking cigarettes." Mumbles Jasmine in the heart.
"Believe my son, whatever you forbid, it's for your good and your health. After all, no mother wants to mislead her child, so I hope you always hear the mother's advice."
"Yes mom, I always remember."
"Oh my son, I'm proud of you, son. It's getting proud." Husna who returned looks very sumringah.
While Melati, at that moment just silent, held the guilt that began to flare up on her.
"Son, it's so late, you better get some sleep now."
"I also want to be so mom, but somehow tonight I can't sleep."
"Eeemm then, do you want me to sing nina bobo?"
Melati finally smiled.
"Yes ma'am, please sing to me, it's been a long time since you heard my mother sing that song to me." Melati.
"It's good, baby."
Husna took a breath first, then slowly began to let out her golden voice very gently and rang in Melati's ears. Yes, no denying, Husna does have a very melodious voice when singing, her voice sounds so seductive that it can be an excellent lullaby for Melati.
"Darken bobok oh jasmine bobok, otherwise bob in the bite of a mosquito. Sleep baby, my dear boy, if it doesn't get stuck in a mosquito bite."
Amidst the stillness of the cold night, Husna continued to sing softly, actually sounding very comfortable in Melati's sense of hearing. Slowly but surely, jasmine began to fall asleep, her eyes slowly began to clench, until finally she fell asleep just like that, she fell asleep still in a state of mobile phone stuck in the ear.
A few minutes passed, Melati's voice was no longer heard, all that was heard from behind the phone was the sound of the roar of breath that sounded very regular.
"Have you slept my son?" Ask Husna to make sure.
But there was no answer, other than the sound of the roar of breath that seemed to continue blowing. Husna, who realized that her daughter was really asleep, started to smile.
"Well, good night, my son, my pride, good sleep, dear, dear mother." Husna said at the end of the sentence and then hung up.
Husna sighed heavily, inwardly she was very sad, having to stay away from Melati like that. After a moment of silence, Husna finally went back inside the house because the air outside was getting cold.
...Seriate......
