PREDESTINATION

Almost met

A week after Lebaran as I have said I went to Jakarta to do Rekon again. Bang Ijon came to pick me up. For four hours we traveled to Pekanbaru. Well we decided to leave this afternoon to Pekanbaru so that tomorrow morning does not keteteran because we have to leave for Jakarta to catch a plane.

"Help, now you can go home, get ready for us to go to Pekanbaru" said bang Ijon.

"Huh? Now bang us to his Pekanbaru?"

"Yes now. At three o'clock in the afternoon we have to leave"

"Why not bang tomorrow?" Well I'm trying to ask her to leave tomorrow. Because it's only the first time I've gone far away and parted ways with my mother. Back when we were on holiday in Bengkalis and stayed at one of the hotels with my sister's family, my mother also came with us. But right now, there's no way my mother could come too.

"Let's not miss tomorrow we're friendly. The plane's eleven o'clock tomorrow. We have to check in before departure. If we leave now, do not miss it later" explained bang Ijon

"Okay any document you want to bring" asked bang Ijon again.

I also brought all the documents Rika ever told me.

"If there's a recon, this document that's brought" he said when he was my boss.

"This is bang" I said giving documents to bang Ijon to bring later. The man who has three children also put the document into a cardboard box so it is easy to carry later.

"Yes bang I came home first yes" I said straight home to get ready.

***

"Cock get home soon?" Ask my mother.

"Yes buk bang Ijon take off to his Pekanbaru this afternoon buk. Afraid of catching a plane tomorrow" I explained.

I also directly pack my clothes that I will bring later while I am in Jakarta.

"Oh, I'm leaving for a while" I said after finishing packing my clothes. Well I'm gonna go to Dika's office for a minute to say goodbye to her.

"Where are you? Later your Ijon sir comes, you don't even exist"

"Just open up for a moment. It's only been one o'clock. I leave at three o'clock in the afternoon buk" I replied.

"Yes, don't be late for you. Oh yeah that's your brother's got a fried catfish masakin. Yesterday you wanted fried catfish right"

"Yes buk, later after I go home I eat yes. I'm leaving for a while" I said, heading straight for Dika's office.

***

"Love, where's it going to be tidy like this?" Tanya Dika was surprised to see me come to her office during business hours.

"I want to go to Pekanbaru and tomorrow to Jakarta to re-reconcile. You're fine here as long as I'm gone. Don't mess around" I told Dika.

"When did you go there?"

"Five days at most"

"Be careful of love" he said again.

"Yes, have you eaten?"

"Awhile more. Here's another road letter for the ship"

"Yes, I went first. Remember don't mess around here" My message again. Well I feel so heavy hearted leaving that man. I don't know if it's possible because he always depends on me making me like this. Well I often deliver food because it knows for itself that lazy men want to cook and sometimes lazy also want to go out to buy food. That's why sometimes I bring her food.

"You be careful on the road to love" said Dika.

"Yes" I answered, intending to leave the office. However, my steps came to a halt as he hugged me from behind.

"I love you love, may your work there be smooth yes. Stay excited. Remember there's me here waiting for you" Whisper her again in my ear.

The simple thing made my heart flow again. Well that speech made me eager to carry out my duty.

"Thank you" I replied with a smile.

***

"Where the hell are you? I saw it was almost three o'clock. Soon your Ijon sir will come. Later even late again you. Eat not yet" said my mother nagging me who just came home.

"Yes buk, sorry. Here I want to eat" answered me immediately rushed to eat the fried catfish made by my brother earlier and after that I immediately took a shower.

Just finished bathing and getting ready to wear my clothes, Bang Ijon also came by using a travel car.

The man who had three children approached my mother and father for permission to take me to Jakarta to do a recon.

"Yes, please keep it friendly" said my father.

"Your Ijon sir has arrived. You were told that even ngeyel it's the keteteran so her" Whisper my mother saw me who still wears powder on the face.

"Yes sorry" That's all I can say right now. Well because I was wrong back then.

"Quite a bit, it's been a long time since your Ijon has been waiting for it" said my mother again pointing to the Ijon bang my boss who was chatting with my father.

"Yes buk, yes" I said again hurrying for my mother's babble to stop.

"Oh, my dad left first. Doain I'm safe going and going home" I said again kissing the back of my mother and father's hands. We also left by car.

During the four hour journey we headed to Pekanbaru.

"Love is gone?" Tanya Dika through her short message to me.

"It has. This is again on the way to Pekanbaru. You doain me yes"

"Of course I will always pray for you love" he replied.

"Thank you" answered me again.

"Sorry Dika later after arriving in Pekanbaru we just continued to exchange his messages yes. My head has started to get dizzy from playing mobile phone while riding in a car like this" I said. Well my head does feel bad. It's natural that I'm drunk on land. His name is also rarely used in cars. Although already drinking antimo so as not to get drunk, but not mempan at all. I still feel dizzy. I sat next to the car door and in the middle seat. Well because bang Ijon knew I was drunk so his he told me to sit there.

"OK love. Be careful" He said again.

***

"Let's be friendly we go in" Invite bang Ijon. The man with three children ordered two rooms. Where our room is not so far away is only one room. This makes it easier for us to prepare the documents we will bring tomorrow.

Well several times I came to the room bang Ijon to print some documents that I had not had time to print in the office. The door to the room bang Ijon was deliberately opened so that there would be no slander later between the two of us.

Azan isya's voice.

"Geez, it's seven o'clock in the night. We haven't had dinner yet. Let's go out looking for food" Bring bang Ijon to me.

We went to find food not far from the hotel we were staying at. We went on foot only. Well there is a food stall that is quite crowded visitors. I also ordered food there with bang Ijon. After we finished eating, we immediately returned to the hotel and continued to print the documents that had been delayed earlier.

"This bang is done" I said giving all the documents to bang Ijon.

"May tomorrow the reconcil that we live goes smoothly yes" he said.

"Aamiin" I answered.

"Yes I went back to my room first. It's ten o'clock in the night, too. Sleepy" I said.

"OK" she answered briefly.

I went back to my room to relax my body that was tired during the trip.

"It's delicious" I said as my body met a soft mattress in my room.

Ting....

My phone rang because a message came in. I hurried to get my phone and read a message from who it was.

"Love, I've been waiting for news from you. But until now you have not given any news at all. Where have you been?" Tanya Dika gave me a short message.

"I'm sorry Dika. Last time after arriving at the hotel, I immediately prepared some documents that I have to bring tomorrow which I have not had time to prepare at the office. So I forgot to tell you because I'm too busy here. Sorry yes" I reply.

"Oh that way, I'm afraid you love you have no news at all" said Dika.

"Yes I'm sorry. I was really busy and forgot to tell you"

"Now what's going on?"

"I was just laying around in my room, just finished preparing the documents I will bring tomorrow. So just now I can lay my body on the bed" I replied again.

"Oh that, the spirit of love. Only words of encouragement can I say to you" Dika said again.

"Yes, that word is precious to me. And it has made me excited" I said anyway.

"Yes, now you sleep. Lovely dream of love. Present me in your beautiful dreams" said Dika as usual.

"Yes, thank you for the banana" I replied.

I couldn't sleep well that night. Well that's me if you just slept in a new place, it would take time to adapt first up to two or three nights. I will be able to sleep comfortably in that place.

"Okay, it's two o'clock in the morning, I still can't close my eyes. My head feels dizzy from it" My inner self again.

"I might faint on a plane tomorrow" I said. I closed my eyes to sleep at that moment. And still can't fall asleep. Though this body is very tired of his taste. But these eyes do not support sleep. I also decided to surf on my social media so that my eyes feel tired and sleepy. Until three o'clock in the morning, it was drowsiness to attack me. Until it made me sleep.

***

The sound of my cell phone alarm was pointing at five past thirty. I rubbed my eyes which still felt heavy from drowsiness. Well because last night I was able to sleep at three in the morning.

"I'd better take a shower and pray at dawn" My inner self.

"Assalamualaikum buk, are you awake?" Ask my mom when I call her. Well I purposely gave my old mito-branded phone to my mother. A phone that can only receive phone calls and messages. But my mother can only receive a phone call if anyone contacts her.

I purposely gave the phone so I could tell my mother wherever I was. Especially now that I am far away from her.

"Waalaikumsalam" answered my mother.

"Why buk?"

"Let's watch the lecture" replied my mother.

"What are you doing again? Already praying?"

"It's buk. It's just finished its prayer"

"Oh yeah where's dad?"

"It's your dad's habit if this early in the morning to go somewhere. The road may be in my sister's house" answered my mother.

"Oh that, yes healthy mother there. I also want to get ready for breakfast" I said again.

"Yes, you're careful there, too. Remember in the village people don't mess around" my mom told me.

"Yes buk, mother don't forget to doain me here. Mother's prayers that I need for my success" I said again.

"Of course mom will always pray for you. I pray the best for you son" answered my mother.

"Yes, I closed it first. Ijon waited for me a long time"

"Yes son"

"Assynogaic"

"Waalaikumsalam" said my mother ending our conversation on mobile.

I immediately got ready to go breakfast with the Ijon bang upstairs. Well at the hotel it provides breakfast for the guests who stay there on the upper floor where the hotel consists of four floors. Our room is on the second floor.

I and bang Ijon went upstairs by elevator.

"Oh my God, it's so good at this hotel. Someday I will bring my father and mother to stay at this hotel. Well every once in a while what's wrong is pleasing parents" My inner heart has the intention to take both of my parents on vacation here.

"I have to raise money to take them on vacation" My inner self is again filled with confidence.
