#43 Liberty and Miss
...The fallen leaves are already in destiny, like a longing that always tells me to come back....
...Aldi~...
New York, Spring.
The clock is at 12:00 p.m., the hot weather is outdone by the spring breeze that blows away some of the flower powder. Already about three months Aldi in America, the atmosphere of pedestrians around the hospital from the sole of the patient's shoes, the patient's family and health workers sounded a little noisy.
Aldi sat leaning on a wheelchair while staring at the ash tree, its leaves being outmatched by the full flower. The tree looked gallant with white flowers that were falling like sakura.
"What's going on here?" ask Nadin.
"To be alone, can't you?" aldi asked without looking up from his activities to the top of the tree.
"In tumbin eek dove ntar, lo," ledek Nadin.
"Cih, mother attached," ketus Aldi Fixing his position.
Nadin approached and sat on one of the tree-shaped benches while staring at Aldi.
"Kangen the Lala, huh?" nadin asked, his eyes looking at his cousin's sister and intended to tease her.
"Bae storm, lo. Why also I became a cousin lo." Aldi complaint not ignored by Nadin.
Nadin got up and pushed Aldi's wheelchair back into his room. Nadin who attended a university near this hospital, majored in Business master. Yups, in a few months Nadin will win his master's degree. But believe me, his face was still like a dozen. Baby face is.
In Aldi's room, Nia sat down while conversing with Hendra. Unknowingly his son was busy staring at the two of them who were like they were busy counting the arisan. Both of his parents sat on the patient's bed so Aldi held Nadin back from entering.
"Well, again for arisan huh, same papa?" aldi asked while folding his hands on his chest. Piqued.
"Eh, mami's son, here." Nadin pushed Aldi's chair closer to the patient's bed.
"Seru really chatted," kekeh Aldi, Aldi was helped up to the bed by Hendra.
Nia just chuckled softly in response to the joke
Aldi. Aldi looked out from the height of the hospital building, Aldi liked his room whose window showed the prowess of a beautiful New York building. Even at night, glamorous lights like competing against each other illuminate the city.
"Why, see the statue of liberty during the night?" ask Nadin.
"The statue is far away too, not too clear from here," elak Aldi.
"Where there is, obviously big," ketus Nadin corrected Aldi's vision.
He did not see the statue. He was just daydreaming. In fact, the memory of his best friend whom he loved became the greatest memory he had.
"Anyones parents?" ask Nadin.
Aldi nodded and took some drinking water. During his gaze at the ash tree behind the hospital garden, Aldi was rather thirsty. Looking up also requires energy.
"Why do people always say I miss people, it looks so good, huh?"
Nadin laughed at Aldi who was upset, the daydreaming person was definitely again there was a problem. Aldi is already visible, still evasive.
"Sister, lo, there's a bustle, isn't there?"
Nadin seemed to think, then laugh evilly. He glanced at Aldi at a glance and shook his hands in front of Aldi's face.
"Hel-low, you never know, the charm of a Nadin? I never had a shortage of girlfriends. Cake lo aja, never sell," cerocos Nadin.
"Curtain, Nyebellin."
Aldi pulled the blanket over his entire body. Hearing Nadin who prides himself makes Aldi want to vomit.
"Seriously, you know." Nadin still told me at length, even Aldi pretended to snore to make his cousin stop telling stories that are not important.

Meilda walked quickly to the receptionist while carrying a paper bag, her face a little worried and thinking maybe Aldi's situation is very bad. He had been thinking about that handsome man for a while.
Meilda is also friends with Lala. He knew that Aldi and Lala did have a special feeling, there would be no denying him.
After being told Aldi's room number, Meilda quickly took the elevator to the 12th floor, Meilda was very worried, the last time she met Aldi at a bookstore was a few months ago. Maybe less than 5 months.
Meilda pushed the door of Aldi's room carefully. Seen Aldi sitting with his hands wrapped in bandages and half his body on the cover of the blanket, a girl with blonde hair half-back to the door and seen talking lightly with Aldi.
"Eh, lo," said Aldi as soon as he saw Meilda.
He did not forget, it was the girl who made him suddenly become a fake Korean actor, not because he was handsome - although Aldi was handsome, but because he had to do a Korean drama, and set the scenario married to Lala.
"I'm here to look at you" said Meilda rather awkwardly. He slowly approached Aldi's bed. Meilda put the paper bag on the table.
"Or where am I here?" ask Aldi suspiciously. He was less fond of Meilda from the start.
"I heard from my friend, a while ago I was also VC Lala."
Nadin got up and said goodbye to buying ice cream, it looks like his cousin needs space, however his cousin-in-law's sister-in-law is only Lala. Nadin believes the girl who came had a lot of gifts for Aldi.
Hearing Lala's name, Aldi fell silent, his eyes slightly showing concern.
"Lala is already in the KKN period, in a few days he returned to Jakarta. Don't worry" Meilda said, like reading Aldi's mind.
"May I have the number?" ask Aldi in a soft voice.
Meilda raised her eyebrows, I can, Aldi dear friend Lala, does not even have her number.
"I was damaged, I couldn't be saved." Aldi could read Meilda's astonishment.
Meilda picked up the phone inside her sling bag while busy exploring her phone. Meilda thrusts Aldi, Aldi quickly picks up his phone.
"You guys keep my number" Meilda's pinta.
"After Lala."
Meilda nodded, even in the matter of saving the number Lala remained the main one, even though Aldi just entered his own no. Meilda is no problem. He just wants to be friends, not want more.
A few minutes later, Aldi nodded and gave back Meilda's phone.
"Gue dah save no I in hp lo."
Meilda nodded and asked a few things with Aldi. Meilda was sure, Aldi could be friends with her.

Aldi stared at his phone for a long time. The clock shows at 23:00 but he still can't sleep, he wants to contact Lala. In Indonesia it must have been 11:00 p.m. Aldi took his cell phone.
A few moments later the phone was picked up.
"Hello, where's it with? Can I help you?"
Aldi held back his laughter, whether his best friend was an intern at school or became a customer cervis.
"I'm looking for my best friend, again,"
Silent, Aldi thought his connection had been severed. Aldi tried to check, it was still connected.
"Hello, La," called Aldi to hold the rumble in his chest.
Knee…
The phone connection died, Aldi frowned, so angry, Lala to him. Aldi sprawled his body looking at the lights that flooded the skyscrapers, Aldi's tears dripping down one after another. She was at the point she hated her current state. Though his misses are already in the ubun-ubun.
Seriate….
