My Sweet Green's

A Potato Donut

"Basic car rese!" Meira kicks the rear tire of the car which suddenly deflates.

Meira glanced at her watch, already at half-five in the afternoon. He was very sorry to have Dwi and Dea go home first. The plan is tonight they want to go to Smokey's band concert. Before leaving, he wanted to go to the mall for a while to buy some clothes to wear later that night. Dwi and Dea were deliberately asked first, because if you go to the mall three like to forget time. The concert started at half-time and seven nights.

Meira sat down on the side of the seemingly deserted road. He took his phone in his bag, tried to contact Burhan or Sarni. But his intentions were clouded when he saw the black motor stop right in front of him. He was a man in a green jacket bearing my Ojek on his left chest.

Rizal came at the right time. Meira did not think at all to ask Rizal for help. But fate said otherwise, this man came before Meira with a slightly panicked look on his face.

"May.." call him.

"Nu, you really are my savior."

"I'm a hero, of course" he got off his bike and approached Meira, who was sitting exhausted.

"Why're you doing?" tanyakanya.

"Look, tuh." he pointed at the leaking tires of his car.

"Do you have spare tires?" ask Rizal.

Meira shakes.

"Don't have one?" ask Rizal to make sure.

"Don't know."

"Try opening the trunk." Rizal ordered.

Meira obeys Rizal, he opens the trunk and turns out all the equipment is still complete. There's a spare tire with jacks. Meira breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sit down first, May. Let me change your car tyres. Looks like it'll take half an hour, don't you papa?" ask Rizal.

Meira nodded quickly. "No papa, I'm happy even."

Rizal. Glancing at Meira astonished, this was not a pleasant situation for him.

"I mean, I'm glad you're here to help me."

"Eh, lo, it's really cool to know, Nu. All in all" he said, switching the conversation.

"Lebay, I used to work in a workshop so I could."

"Two thumbs up for you." praise Meira.

Rizal ignored Meira's words, he focused on continuing his work. In his heart he did not want to help this girl. Besides not wanting to meet Meira, he also wanted to hurry to the base. It was late afternoon, he thought.

But his heart rejected his thoughts. He could not bear to see Meira sitting on the side of the road with a confused face.

"Still a long time, huh, Nu?" meira asked and glanced at her watch.

"In a moment" said Rizal amid his busy installing tires.

"Where are you going?"

The question finally came out of Rizal's mouth, after he held back from not wanting to know this girl's business. But her curiosity prompted her to ask.

"The plan is to go to the mall, anyway. Keep running out it wants to watch the band Smokey concert," he said while scrolling his phone, making sure Dea had booked tickets for him.

"Lo wants to come, right? As a sign of gratitude, I bought you a ticket for you." he said then turned to Rizal.

"No, thanks, May. I can't stand the smoke. Anyway, meningan I just ngojek" he said without turning his head.

Rizal stopped his activities for a while and stared at Meira who was sitting watching him.

"wasn't... The band likes to mess around, huh?" He tightened the bolt that was released.

"Yes, anyway. But if there's a riot I'll run away as soon as I can, easy right?" he said with a relaxed smile.

"Don't be crazy. That's a danger know."

Meira smiles. "Lo very attentive to me, Nu."

Hearing Meira's words made Rizal instantly speechless.

Kok, could...

He hastily put equipment to change the tires of the car into the trunk. Finally finished too. He patted his own mouth that spoke like that. Is correct. Very considerate.

"Eh, wait a minute, Nu!" Meira ran into the car. He hurriedly took the bag containing a box of potato doughnuts and went back to Rizal.

"Lo must be tired, we eat this first, yuk." Meira showed me the orange pouch.

"No need, May. I'm in a hurry." reject Rizal. Actually he was not in a hurry, just did not want to linger with the girl.

"Kok lo that, anyway." said Meira lowered her head to put on a sad face so that Rizal luluh.

"But..." Rizal looked worried.

"Come on, you're gonna nyelak this. This is the most delicious potato doughnut in Jakarta, you know." Meira tease with a very convincing face.

Rizal sighed, finally agreeing with Meira's invitation. Anyway just eat a doughnut and then go. They were sitting in Kenanga Street's garden. Which was not far from Meira's car broke down earlier.

Of course Meira was very happy when Rizal nodded. Not in vain also he received a parcel from his aunt who specifically came to the campus just to give the sweet snack.

The story is that when his last lecture hour was finished, he was told to come to Dewanto's room. Because someone's waiting there. Meira complies, as she stands at the door. He smiled when he saw the figure of the curly-haired beautiful woman coming over and hugging him.

"How are you, baby?" tanyakanya.

"Good, Tan." Meira returns the aunt's embrace.

"It's a parcel for you, baby. Aunty remembered you when she wanted to pick up your Om." said Melinda.

"Thank you many Aunt Meira most dear Meira." Meira received the orange parcel.

"Then Meira goes home first, Om, Tan. Oh, yes, greetings to brother Ardi who is still busy with his own world." Meira chuckles.

"You are this." Melinda smiled at Meira's true words.

The afternoon atmosphere makes the garden air more beautiful. There were many children running around while carrying a ball in his hand.

"Cobain, Nu."

Rizal took the doughnut with the chocolate topping and ate it.

"Enak, right."

Rizal nodded. "Enak, really. It's delicious even." he said while eating the donut with pleasure. It turns out Meira didn't lie, this donut is really delicious.

"No, I told you" he said with a triumphant smile.

Meira looked at Rizal's forehead and laughed.

"Lo kayak Gaara, Nu" he said laughing again.

"Why?" asked Rizal who was still chewing his doughnuts.

"here." Meira pulls Rizal's body to get a bit closer to him. He cleaned Rizal's forehead black because of the oil stuck in the key when changing the car tire earlier.

But the unexpected happened, one of the children who ran around threw a ball right hit Rizal's head until he was unaware his face was very close to Meira's face.

Degs...

Meira's heart instantly became unsettled. He could not speak because his lips were silenced by a soft object as soft as a potato donut. But... Chewy too.

He kept his body away. Holding his lips, not believing what had happened a few seconds ago.

"Aww..." Rizal grimaced in pain while holding his head after being aware of an unexpected event just now.

"Lo no papa, Nu?" asked Meira who was still with a red face.

"No papa" he answered quickly. The nervousness has not gone away.

"Basins of wayward children." grumbled Meira. whereas in his heart carved a wide smile.

"Maybe they're not on purpose," Rizal lowered his head, not daring to look at that pretty face.

"I'm sorry about what happened, May. I'm so sorry."

"It's not wrong, you."

It's been twice...

Meira still sits quietly after Rizal tells her. He still imagined the unexpected touch a few minutes ago.
