Not the Story of Siti Nurbaya

Not Siti Nurbaya

It was dark when the car driven by Zikra pulled over on the side of the road, close to a traditional market not far from the village. They all got down from the car seat they were sitting in. If not for the request of Bonang who has been attacked by acute hunger. This was also confirmed by others. Especially Syifa. Although not saying directly, but the sound of his stomach rumbling can not lie. So they want to go looking for food.

There are several food shop options lined up on the side of the road. The food available is not luxurious, but quite appetizing when the stomach is hungry. Then their choice fell on the catfish pecel store.

Bonang who was very enthusiastic to choose the store, immediately chose the menu pecel catfish and nasi ubuk. Zikra, Nadya and Syifa ordered chicken pecels and white rice. And cold sweet tea for Nadya and Bonang. And warm sweet tea for Zikra. Squeezing orange juice with a little ice cubes is the choice of Syifa.

It takes time to enjoy the food they order. Bonang sat beside Zikra. Syifa and Nadya sat in a chair facing them.

An awkward feeling ambushed Syifa when her eyes met Zikra's gaze. Although this is not the first time they have met. But he cannot control.

"Bang Zikra, have a girlfriend yet?" todong Nadya pranks on opening the conversation. The girl looks shy.

Bonang mentoyor Nadya's forehead sitting opposite him.

"Basin the snot boy! Why do you think Zikra has a girlfriend yet?"

"Emang why? How about you, Bang?" nadya asked back.

"So I've told you, but why is it still so reckless," Bonang nyolot.

"Udah justin, it's only natural that he asked," sela Zikra understood.

Syifa elbowed Nadya's arm until the girl hissed in pain.

"Ouch! Elo again, why?" reprimand Nadya rubbed her aching arm. "elo wants to follow my brother?"

Syifa pulled Nadya's arm closer to the distance between them.

"Don't you ever tell me, if he's Aini's girlfriend?" syifa asked half a whisper.

"Let's just say, I'm talking to doang. Who knows, I have a chance to be his girlfriend" said Nadya in a whisper, with a face that looks crisp.

"Don't like to marry a friend's girlfriend, the effect is not good" Syifa explained trying to remind.

Although the relationship with Angga was not the result of marriage, it was still not tasty. Especially because of his ignorance about the relationship of Angga and Rima, he was labeled a actor by his school friends.

"Relax, as long as the yellow flag hasn't fluttered, the opportunity is still there for me, hehehe.." as long as it's hilarious. "so, santuy ..."

"Ih, sadist! Before the yellow janur curves the times, cook the yellow flag it means ..."

"Yes, I know. If yellow is ordinary. Well, if the yellow flag is amazing."

"Can't you?"

"Yes that. Who would still want to chase after someone who has died."

"Died?"

"Hoh-oh." Nadya nodded her head.

Zikra smiled kindly. His eyes look shady. His face is clean without mustache and berewok, making his good looks even more maximal.

Nadya turned her gaze to the young man she had long since been appraised of. With a happy smile she looked forward to an answer that could give her a breath of fresh air.

"Lord. I already have a boyfriend, even soon we will get married," the answer that makes Nadya dashed hope.

Suddenly the sweet smile that was offended on Nadya's lips turned stifling. Wanting to feel she was crying all her might, but she had to keep the image in front of the young man, in order to still look graceful.

Syifa's voice seemed to roll out like lightning in broad daylight. The girl seemed satisfied to see her best friend rejected by the person she liked.

"Huuuu, what I'm saying, don't listen to me if I say." Bonang mentoyor Nadya's forehead again.

"Bon, don't be rude to a girl, let alone her own little sister. Love him as you love your mother" said Zikra sage.

Nadya clapped her hands in salute at Zikra's very wise speech.

"This is just a man, not like lo Bang, rough."

Bonang wanted to snap Nadya's head, but stopped because Zikra was in the way and continued to give her advice.

Syifa smiled unintentionally as her eyes met Zikra's eyes. Hurriedly he turned his gaze in the other direction.

Not long after, the food they ordered finally came. Drinking water placed in accordance with the order. Same with the food they ordered. Then eat it greedily.

"Neng Cipa, I think we've met before. But where is it?" asked Bonang suddenly. "gue forgetfully remembered."

Syifa suddenly choked until she almost coughed. He grabbed his drinking glass so as not to completely cough.

Zikra glanced at the girl sitting opposite him looking deathly pale. It was as if he wanted to keep their meeting a secret at that time.

"Ah, elo Bang, just make it up. Where could Cipa meet you somewhere else. He's playing at our house never met. I am already from Junior High. So, there's no way you can meet him," Nadya broke her brother's speech.

Syifa and Zikra this time deliberately met a view. Syifa shook her head as if saying Nadya did not need to know about their meeting at that time.

"Eh, Bang. I told you elo. Cipa couldn't have gone all the way from her house."

"Don't get sotoy!"

"You don't believe, there's a man. Ask me."

Syifa just grinned showing her flat teeth. Followed Nadya's arm to keep the girl shut.

"Bang Zikra, the story of Cipa's life is strange," Nadya chuckled.

Syifa patted her head.

You bucket mouth!

"Why?"

Still laughing he continued,

"The story of Cipa's life is a story of Siti Nurbaya. He was fooled by his parents from childhood. It doesn't make any sense, does it? Though now the millennial era, not the colonial era anymore" he said.

Syifa kicked Nadya's leg from under the table. Until he fizzed in pain.

"Gue said I'm not Siti Nurbaya" he said quickly.

"Oh yeah?"

"Elo both very compliant," interrupted Bonang. "don't you two ..."

Zikra and Syifa looked again. Both are silent. Not denying or denying it.

"No way."

"Heh, can you not really interfere in other people's affairs?" tegur Bonang growled.

"Why indeed? I met the guy at the time. So I know who Cipa's candidate is," he said arrogantly. Nadya told me about her meeting with the guy.

"That's right, Nad. I'm ashamed, "Syifa half-whispered.

Bonang laughed out loud hearing the story from his sister. Especially when Nadya says the guy has toothless tooth. When she laughed, it looked like the window was wide open.

Syifa's face looked crimson due to the embarrassment she endured. Already several times he warned his friend who was talking nonstop like a wedding firecracker, berodog continued before his tent burned out. Sometimes he rubbed his face.

"Neng Cipa, are you sure about him?"

"meaning?" Syifa frowned.

"I mean that brother, the guy that Eneng called Zikra. Is it not wrong to name? You know, the name Zikra on our campus yes .. just or," Bonang explained the truth.

Syifa listened carefully. Nadya who wanted to interrupt Bonang's conversation immediately digubrisnya.

Bonang pointed his index finger towards Zikra. "He!"

Zikra was about to speak up, but the banishment was done to honor friends since High School looked serious.

Syifa widened while linking her eyebrows until almost fused.

"Her cook, Bang? Who is that guy?" nadya kepo. Faced with Syifa. "so when the date was blind the other day, the guy who came to me he. He did not say his name was Zikra. But I just saw him carrying the same red rose that I was carrying" he continued, explaining the chronology of their initial meeting.

Syifa nodded confirming Nadya's words.

Zikra recalled the beginning of his meeting with Syifa.

"Yes yes ... Brother said this because he was a college friend Brother," continued Bonang. "including a guy who calls, he is also a college friend Brother. Even though he's one level older than the two of us."

Bonang's words really made Syifa think hard. Suddenly many questions popped up filling his head. It's only fitting that Tasya's sister is so angry with him. He thinks his words are just a joke.

"really so? so who is Zikra? You mean that guy?" syifa's search is curious.

"He, Komar," said Zikra quickly.

"Yes right. Komarudin." said Bonang justifying.

Syifa suddenly became dizzy. Heard explanations that he thought were less plausible. However, he did not deny that what he heard and felt felt very strange. He grunts heavily.

After finishing their food and drinks, they continued their journey to their homes.
