RANIA 'God's Destiny Makes Me Cry In Pelaminan'

The Ambarukmo Plaza

Less than two weeks passed, since I brought Mas Farhan to his house. I don't think much about his mother's attitude either. Now I can just try to give up and pray, I hope all is well.

That afternoon, Via and I sat on the front steps of the rectorate building, discussing a little about each other's thesis.

"Hadeh, judge me Ran. New also CHAPTER 1, wes mumet me," lamented Via at that time.

"Patience, the spirit. Let the spit out, let us be free from all these burdens" I said with a laugh and cheered Via.

"Ran, mal yuk. Ben rodo refreshes sithik lah, my head rasane abot really (let a little refresh, my head feels very heavy)," asked Via.

"Where's it?" my many.

"Ambarukmo yo, sisan I want to find shoes," he said.

"What time's it going?" ask again.

"Yo now we go home, take a shower, change clothes and die" he said excitedly.

"Yo wes yo, I also want to wash my eyes" I replied.

We went back to the boarding house, took a bath, prayed ashar and then went straight to Ambarukmo Plaza.

Arriving at Ambarukmo Plaza we went straight to Carrefour. There Via immediately eagerly looking for the shoes he wanted. I also became interested to look around, who knows there are suitable to wear and fit in the bag.

While we were picking shoes, suddenly a woman came to greet me.

"Hi" said.

"Hi" I replied with a smile and tried to remember who he was.

"Forgot yeah?" ask her.

"Sorry who?" my many. I feel like I've seen it. But I forgot who he was.

"Sekar, Mas Farhan's theme. If it's not wrong then we met at Waroeng Steak," he reminded me.

"Oh yes, sorry Ma'am. I forgot, because it's only met once, it's been a while," I said with an awkward smile.

"Call now. We're the same age. No papa forgot, but I want to see the same Mbak e, aboute yesterday when playing at the house of Farhan mas. I accidentally saw a picture of mbak e in e mas Farhan wallet," he said with a smile.

"Oh, did you play at Mas Farhan's house yesterday?" my many.

"Yes, until it's malem, same as me." she replied with a smile.

Somehow I felt that his smile was unusual, even like a faint smile. Honestly, I do not like the way he seemed to show off if he could come to Mas Farhan's house and linger there.

"Oh, come here alone?" ask me to divert the conversation.

"No, same my mother. But my mother was picking clothes" he replied, pointing at a woman who was standing not too far away from us.

"Look, Ran, I got a word. We see another one again" said Via, who had just approached with a pair of shoes in his hand.

"Oh Vi, this is familiar. After meeting Mas Farhan who met us at Waroeng Steak," said introducing Via and Sekar.

They also shake hands.

"Jaudah monggo if you want to continue again, I did not go to my mother first," said Sekar as he waved and passed.

"I'm kok ra seneng yo ndelok rupane (i don't like to see his face)," said Via as Sekar moved away.

"Why?" my many. Still while watching Sekar who walked closer to his sister.

"Rupone ki kayak that's so coquettish."

"Haha, watch out for you. Dah yuk to that part," I said while pointing to the area of jeans.

When I want to move from there, I had looked once towards Sekar and Mbaknya. I saw Sekar pointing at me, as if to inform Mba of my whereabouts, and I immediately turned my gaze away.

"Vi, I went there first, yeah," I said to Via who was picking a nightgown.

"Okay, I won't follow you."

I also headed to the men's shirt area. I don't know why it feels like I want to give something to Mas Farhan.

I also ended up interested in one plain gray shirt with sleeves that if rolled up that look is a small black and white checkered motif. Without thinking I immediately took the shirt.

Looks like Mas Farhan will look cool if you use this.

"Buy what Ran?" ask Via who is next to me.

"Here, good?" ask me while showing the shirt to Via.

"What, bumuse alus, make Mas Farhan?" ask her.

"He uh, good huh? I don't know why I suddenly wanted to give it to him."

"Ultah po?"

"No, it's still May" I replied.

"Two more months dong, won't it?" ask Via.

"Aiihhhh it's been 30 years, masa' yes-rayain birthday. I'm the same Mas Farhan. Don't like such celebrations, less social," I replied.

"Yo ndak dirayain that rousing. I mean just give me cake, gift, keep eating that."

"Not like it, the most common ngapin. It was also the most through SMS," I said with a laugh.

"Blas does not exclaim koe ki Men (not at all exciting you tuh), wes let's pay," he said as a manyun and walked to the cashier.

We went from there and paid for each other.

Finished paying for all the groceries, Via took me to eat in the food court on the top floor of the mall.

"Vi, I wonder. The feeling of every one of us, kok ya happen to meet the women around Mas Farhan," said I wonder.

"Ho oh, at that time Zahra, today Sekar," he said.It turns out Via also realized the same thing with me.

"A funny coincidence, like a soap opera," I said with a smile.

"Alah kowe ra tau watch soap opera wae kok."

"It's from your story. You have told me a complete story, so why else do I watch" I said with a laugh. My best friend that one is indeed the queen of soap operas.

"The grandmother in the soap opera, kui jenenge the code of nature Ran," said Via.

"What is the nature code?" many confused.

"Yes the code of nature, usually nek neng sinetron kui kanko conflict that occurs yo fellow people who met accidentally it."

"I don't want conflicts, I like peace" I said with a smile

"Kan kui soap opera Men, nek raono conflict e yo ra exclamation nu, ra payu(it's a soap opera men, if there is no conflict it is not exciting, not salable)," he explained.

The food we ordered finally came. While eating we talked about a few things. Mas Farhan, Sekar, Zahra, all the way to their respective thesis.

Finished eating suddenly my HP shook. When I checked, it was an SMS from Mas Farhan.

"What's the deck?" tanyakanya.

"Again eat the same Via in Amplaz mas," I reply.

"Are you in Ambarukmo?" tanyakanya.

"I'm a samperin yeah, I'm not far from this amplaz. Just got home from work," he said.

"Oh yes can, later if it has arrived SMS yes," he replied.

Me and Via got out of the food court, headed downstairs. I told Via that Mas Farhan wanted to come here.

Soon my HP shook again as we reached the bottom floor

"I'm in the front garden of the Deck" wrote Mas Farhan.

"Oh yeah, we're downstairs. Let's get out soon," I said.

"Wes press po (already arrived)?" ask Via.

"Udah, he's waiting in the front garden" I replied.

When we reached the main door of the Mall, we also approached Mas Farhan who was sitting on a cement bench available in the park right in front of the Mall.

"Halo Mas e, bali kerjo po(hello mas, home from work?)?" ask Via to Mas Farhan.

"Yes, is the shopping done?" ask Mas Farhan.

"Udah, Via the shopping one," I said as I glanced at Via who was sitting next to me.

"Wooo Rania yo ho oh kok, even belonjo nggo until good."

"Sssstt is noisy," I said as I closed Via's mouth.

"Buy what Deck?" asked Mas Farhan with a smile.

"Some, just later," I replied while hiding my groceries.

When we were chatting suddenly I saw Sekar and Mbaknya coming out of the Mall. True to my estimation, he would see us and approach us.

"Eh, ono Mas Farhan," he said as he approached and walked towards us.

"Sekar, Madam Dahlia" said Mas Farhan as he stood when they were in front of us.

"Dek Farhan, what else is here?" mbakya Sekar asked Mas Farhan.

I could see Sekar and his Mba watching me, and I saw Mas Farhan standing next to me looking at me.

"Here, my girlfriend's nyamperin" Mas Farhan replied as he looked at me and smiled.

Huh huh? A boyfriend? Ran's girlfriend! He recognizes you as his girlfriend in front of Sekar and his mom Ran.

Oh Raniaaa, he admitted you Ran. It's totally beyond belief. I wanted to hug him right then and there. The word 'my girlfriend' coming out of a Farhan's lips is not an easy thing to hear. Even a Zahra who was about to be proposed never got that recognition.

Raaan, what dream are you semalem Ran? How's your heart, healthy Ran?

Finally I also stood up and greeted Mbuh Sekar. I can see Mbak Dahlia's expression as if he does not like Mas Farhan's recognition of me, he smiled even though he looked forced. Yeah, I can see it.

"Daughter?" ask Sekar.

"Yes, this is Rania, my boyfriend."

"Since when did Mas Farhan get to date?" ask Sekar while smiling although a bit cynical.

"Ran, bali yo. Wes arep maghrib ki(Ran, home yo. I want maghrib)." Suddenly, Via stood up and interrupted the conversation.

"Oh, okay," I replied as I took my groceries I had placed downstairs.

"Via's got a motor, right? If Via brought his own motorbike does not papa? Rania let me be," said Farhan, pulling the reinforcements and holding my left hand.

I was surprised and looked at his face. Mas Farhan smiled as if to code me, if I do not leave him there with Sekar and Mbaknya.

"You can, you can!" Replied Via while glancing cynically towards Sekar. I can see that look.

"Ciye Mas Farhan, very romantic," said Sekar. For some reason in my ears the sentence sounded as if it was mocked.

"Yo Dek, go home, let's go back to Farhan first." Mbak Dahlia also said that he immediately pulled Sekar's hand and passed leaving the three of us.

"Later no SMS yo Mas," cried Sekar while walking slightly dragged because pulled by Mbak Dahlia.

Farhan looked at me. Without letting go of her hand at all. Then he took me and Via to the parking lot next to the Mall to pick up the bike and go home.

Along the way Mas Farhan continued to hold my left hand. It really makes me feel very happy. Yes, I am just an ordinary woman who likes to be treated as romantic by the man I love. Moreover, he had openly admitted me as his girlfriend in front of Sekar. I could see that Sekar seemed to like Mas Farhan, and I could also feel that his brother and sister did not like me very much.

We had stopped by the mosque first to perform maghrib prayers before continuing the journey back to the boarding house. The Via motor drove in front of us the entire trip.

Arriving at kos Via directly go inside. While Mas Farhan and I were as usual, chatting first in front of the gate. It seems that it is our Favorite place, because every time we go home from anywhere, we always have a little chat there.

"Thank you, I'm going to Mal, and I'm going back to the cost. Even though my cost and your house are different directions, and Mal was closer to your house than here" I said.

"Together, going as far and as we can, if for Eania, it's no big deal" he replied with a smile.

"Thank you for that one, too" I said with a shy smile.

"Which one?" tanyakanya.

"Yet, I've admitted to being a girlfriend in front of Sekar and Mbaknya," I said.

"Oh that, you're welcome. All this time I never admitted anyone as my girlfriend in front of my friends, new you."

"Why all of a sudden?" my many.

"Because I want them to know that I already have one" he replied with a very sweet smile. It was so sweet at the time.

"But it seems like Sekar likes you mas," I said.

"I know, and it's been a long time. Mbak Ani and Mbak Dahlia never nyomblangin us. But I refused it," she explained to me.

"Huh? Dicomblangin?"

"Yes, Mbak Dahlia and Mbak Ani often convey greetings, which he said from Sekar for me. They used to walk the two of us, but I was told to ngeboncengin Sekar. But for me Sekar is nothing more than an ordinary friend, or perhaps like his own sister."

"If it turns out that what I mean is Sekar, how?" manya curious.

"Obviously I would reject it, I don't have any sense of the same Sekar. Although we met often and have known for a long time," he replied.

"After that, I went in first. Be careful on the road, until my house is told," I said goodbye. Yeah, I want to get into the boarding house and reflect in my room. What Mas Farhan told me just now makes me uneasy. I think my mind started everywhere. I just heard a simple confession about who I am in his heart. I started to worry about what I just heard.

Just as I was about to open the gate, Mas Farhan who was still sitting on his motorbike suddenly pulled my left hand. I was surprised and looked at him.

"There is no need to fill your mind and heart with things that make you uncomfortable. Just think of me, I always think of you. I'm trying to figure out how to get you right away" he said.

Instantly, my heart was beating very fast.

The happiness I cannot describe comes back. Really connecting with Mas Farhan really must have a strong heart. I never even saw Mas Farhan as serious as I was. The idle introduction over the radio, brought me to this point.

"Thank you for the seriousness, I hope everything will be fine" said my calm snobs with a shy smile.

Though my feet are already eager to jump it feels, and if only he could feel my palm held turned very cold at that time.

Finally Mas Farhan came home, leaving me who still felt the heat on this cheek.

Roxanne, Rania. Increase your trials. Not yet finished Zahra eh there is Mother Mas Farhan, it's how now slip one more, Sekar. But whatever it is, Mas Farhan has made me feel so important. Because his recognition of my existence turned out to be serious. Rania Ainun Sofia, it turns out that your name has been engraved in her heart. Vice versa.

Seriate....
