Pursue Your Love Back

Chapter 16: Grandma's House

Arini and Angel set foot in a house with a green tosca paint that looks simple but very clean from the outside. the yard is not too broad but looks beautiful because many flower plants in the yard of the house, the flowers are neatly arranged in their respective pots.

Although there is no fence around the house, but his grandmother can arrange the yard to look beautiful.

The new clock shows at 9 pm, but here it looks silent, understand the name is also in the interior. Far from the city crowd

Arini knocked on the door of the house

Tock.tok...

"Assalamualaikum Ma'am..." Arini

Not long after a middle-aged woman of about 65 years opened the door for us. The middle-aged woman looked bright at our arrival. His skin is already wrinkled, but he can still stand upright and look fresh.

"You've come" he said with an expanding smile

Arini hugged each other and missed her mother. Then the woman who used to be called Sarini's grandmother looked at Angel who was standing behind Arini with her big bag.

"Here is my grandson" said the woman to Angel, stretching her arms.

Angel rushed into the old woman's arms

"It's big you are now" said Sarini's grandmother

Then they let go of their embrace

"Had 5 years Grandma didn't see you, now you're an adult" Sarini said, wiping her grandson's hair

"Yes the problem is that Angel has to go to college and work as well so we do not have time to visit mother here", said Arini.

"Yes, let's go in and in", take Sarini's grandmother

They also entered the house. Inside there is a living room that is not too spacious and a room next to the living room.

"Well that's your room.., later let your mama sleep in the back room just next to grandma's room", said Grandma Sarini

"Yes ma'am thank you for ngerepotin mom.", said Arini.

"Ngerepotin what. I'm glad you want to stay here again. Since Damar died, I've made sure you stay with me again here. But you refused", Sarini's grandmother told Arini

"Yes Ma'am, at that time Angel was still in school there. If from here the school is far enough, especially there is no outback angkot. Besides too many memories with mas Damar there" said Arini

This village is indeed a rural village far from the city crowd. If you want to go to the city, it may be 1 hour drive if you have to walk. The ride may be about 20 minutes.

In the past here there was no angkot for the interior so if you want to go to the city you have to walk or ride an ojek. Now there is an invitation for school children

"Yes already, Grandma.. Angel wants to go to the room first.. " Said Angel who looks very tired

"Yes already.. You do not want to eat first?", asked Grandma Sarini

Angel shook his head

"No need for Nek.. Angel is still full.was had to eat in the streets Sama mama", replied Angel.

"Yes you have rested.you must be tired", said Grandma Sarini.

Angel walked into the room that was shown by her grandmother. After Angel enters the room, Arini and Sarini head to the back room

Angel opened the door to the room, the room was almost as spacious as the room in her first home. And the bed was the same, just enough for him alone.

Angel put her bag next to the bed, maybe tomorrow she will clean up her clothes, now she feels very tired. He sat on his bed and looked dreamy. He recalled Aarav, his heart always shrouded in longing for the young man. Will he be able to live his days here without seeing the young man again. His heart was rebellious but the circumstances were compelling.

After cleaning himself and changing his clothes he laid himself on the bed and began to close his eyes, trying to sleep that night.

Angel began to fall asleep, several times he woke up because he missed Aarav very much but he tried to sleep again.

Meanwhile in his room Aarav suddenly awakens from his sleep

"Angel..!!", cried Aarav

Aarav gets up and sits down. He dreams of Angel in his sleep. He dreams of girls

it keeps calling his name.

"It turns out it was just a dream.. " Talk

"But why my heart is so agitated.I should call Karin tomorrow to make sure Angel's condition.

The next morning at her grandmother's house, Angel woke up early. The atmosphere in the village is very cool. Not as noisy as in the city, here it feels quieter.

"You've woken up Cu" said Grandma Sarini who saw her grandson standing in front of her house

"Yes Nek has.", replied Angel.

"What do you want to eat today? Then let grandma masakin" asked Sarini

"Hhhmmm what yes.., It's up to my grandmother" Angel looks confused.

"But grandma can only cook village cuisine" Sarini said.

"It's okay, Grandma.. Angel likes the same cuisine grandma", Angel laughs

"Yes already grandma wants to settle in the back first yes.., later new to the stall for vegetable shopping.", he added.

"Yes Grandma", replied Angel.

Sarini went back into her house and left Angel in her own yard.

That afternoon Aarav and his parents were enjoying a lunch in the dining room.

"Today mba Yuyun came here to bring your things. But Bi Iin did not follow he said he wanted Risegn because he was old, he said he wanted to go home just to take care of his grandchildren. Mama has sent severance money to him", said Yuniar

"Yes mama so nambuk temen right at home, let alone the same Yuyun yes already a clop really", ledek Aksara

"Ihh papa this is what the hell.has healed now can leadekin mama again. But mama seneng now mama's son is back", said Yuniar as he glanced at Aarav who was sitting in front of him.

Aarav just fell silent and did not listen to the jokes of his parents. His mind was somewhere else, he was thinking about Angel.

"Oya Aarav, papa has registered your lecture in Jakarta. Later in your free time, you can go to the papa office to learn to help papa there", said Aksara

"Yes Pah", answered Aarav briefly

"Aarav has finished eating, Aarav returned to the room first yes pa. ma.", said Aarav.

Aarav got up and left the dining room

Yuniar looked towards the departure of his son and began to feel anxious..

"Aarav why pa?? More silence Since coming back here" said Yuniar worriedly

"Mama shouldn't worry. He just wasn't used to it. Later also used to be more common again", Aksara try to calm his wife

But as a mother Yuniar still feel anxious. He knew that his son looked unhappy. Usually he used to joke around and liked to cheat on his mother but this time no, Aarav was more silent.

Aarav went into his room and heard a phone call from his cellphone which he had left on his desk. His parents always taught not to bring hp when eating, because if they are at the dinner table they can gather together without having to be disturbed.

Aarav takes his hp, a call from Karin.

"Ya Rin.", Aarav said as his phone was connected

"Rav you can come back here now, can't you?" cried Karin

"What's wrong?" asked Aarav

"Angel Rav.", said Karin.

"Angel why??" asked Aarav worriedly

"So I went to class because I had 2 days not seen him in the campus, said the minister he had come out of campus. My intention is the same Yoga want nyamperin to his house now", said Karin

Aarav is shocked to hear Angel coming out of campus. He shouldn't have to leave campus just because of Vania. He must have thought that all the events were true and he felt ashamed so he decided to leave the campus.

" Rin. Lu to her house now. Ntar you're telling me. Now I'm going to Bandung", cried Aarav

Aarav instantly turned off his phone and he took his jacket from the closet. He rushed out of the room and went back down.

Yuniar and Aksara who were still sitting at the dining table looked towards Aarav who was coming down the stairs in a hurry. Aarav walked over to his parents.

"Mah. pa.. Aarav wants to go to Bandung. Aarav has business", said Aarav

Yuniar who heard his son's words immediately got up and approached him.

"What business, son??, Mba Yuyun was on her way here with your belongings.", said Yuniar

"Aarav hastily Ma.. Aarav said it first.."

Aarav ran out of the house regardless of the call from his mother.

"Aaravist.. Aarav..", Shouted Yuniar.

Aksara woke up and approached his wife.

"Had ma.. let it be. later also he came home", said Aksara relaxed.

"This papa yes. instead of forbidding Aarav to leave as well.", Isak Yuniar.

"Leave it. His name is also young.", Aksara said.

"But mama is worried pa..!", said Yuniar.

Aksara calmed his wife

"Here come. mending we watch tv so mama does not think Aarav continues", invite Aksara.

Aksara took his wife's hand and took her to the living room, a normal place for them to relax.

Aarav could not drive his car at high speed because the afternoon was so stuck, he had to be patient. But what he thinks now is how he can quickly get to Bandung because he is very worried about the girl he loves so much. He did not want to lose the girl.
