The morning sun entered through the cracks of Shinta's room window. Gently slurping. Warm the side of the room that falls asleep in the dark of the night. Now the bright light had filled the entire room, waking Shinta's body.
Shinta squirms. Pulling hands into the air. Expel his drowsiness. He put his feet together, got out of bed. He walked straight to the bathroom.
After performing her morning ritual, Shinta looks fresh. Combing that long hair in front of her dresser. Looking at her reflection in the mirror.
Am I pretty? No, it's normal. Why would that bule like me? Whispers slowly. Then he smiled. Something tickled him. Very amusing. Why is he so confident? What if Joe was just a show? Glug. Shinta pias. Nah! I wouldn't forgive him if it was just nonsense.
Shinta finished combing. He grabbed his phone on the nightstand near the bed. Sit back in her dresser.
This weekend he wants to go to Anin's house. Who knows, the child can learn together. How's Mas Revan? You Anin, she hasn't introduced me to her husband yet.
Shinta grumbled in her heart. While looking at the screen on the phone. He pressed the social media app. It is not unusual for him to open his personal account. There is no post of that deacon. Except for a photo of her and Anin as a profile picture. He has not taken care of his social media for a long time.
Shinta opens the veranda. Lots of posts from classmates or from no one. There are ads too. Huh! Shinta gave a rough sigh. Why do I open my social media? Nothing interesting at all.
Shinta then logout. Then open the search page. He's typing 'Joe Smith'. A second appeared pages from various sources showing the relationship with Joe Smith. Shinta opened one by one. There is no one to talk about Joe.
Shinta is getting curious. He typed again. His name is Jonathan Smith. But what appeared was also not as he expected. Why is there nothing about Jonathan? Whispers wonder. Shinta recalled Joe once said that his credit card alone could buy a publishing company, meaning he's a rich dong huh? Usually the rich always review his success. The way they run their business, or about their glamorous life. It's nil. Joe Smith is not on any page at all.
Shinta typed something again. Andrew Smith's. A second appeared many links. But also the same. There is no discussion that Shinta wants. Ih... It sucks! Shinta grumbled again. He put the phone down. Then shoring up the chin. Think hard.
He took his phone back. Type something again. Rania Smith's. And same. Gusar Shinta. Why is it so mysterious? Who are they really?
Tok tok!
The sound of the door being knocked. Shinta shuffled open the door. There was a voice calling his name from behind that door. Female voice, but not Ma'am Asih.
"Are you awake, honey?" That voice sounds clear. The voice he knew. Rania Smith's.
Shinta grabbed the doorknob quickly opened it. He wanted to immediately see the figure who was calling him. Aye! Shinta was surprised. In front of him now stands a beautiful and charming figure typical of Asians despite the age of half a century, Rania does look young. Like seeing Rania for the first time.
"When did Mommy arrive? Shinta doesn't know that Mommy will be visiting?" Shinta asked a little.
"Joe didn't tell you? That kid is bad. Punish him Shinta." Rania said with a smile.
"What did Mommy say? Joe naughty?" Joe's distinctive voice stopped the steps of the women in front of Joe. They turned their bodies to see Joe approaching. Joe is neat. Ready to go to the office. Grey suit suit with patterned tie. The arm is wearing a clock. And the hair was neatly combed. Adding a masculine impression.
Instantly Shinta was amazed to see Joe's sighting this morning. Glug. Trouble Shinta swallowed her savilla. Justjust wonderful.
"Darling, why wear a suit? Weekend want to work?"
"Yes, Mom." The cup! A warm kiss landed on Rania's cheek. Shinta can only see Joe's treatment. Rania stroked Joe gently. Beloved child.
Joe approaches Shinta and the forehead is wet because Joe did the same to Shinta. Shinta just stiffened. In front of Rania, Joe did that. Making Shinta's face instantly blush.
"You guys are so sweet." Rania smiled happily. Clapping hands. It means Joe's feelings are growing for Shinta.
Isha! Always arbitrarily. It sucks! The shinta.
"I love you Honey." Whisper Joe in Shinta's ear. Makes Shinta shudder. Deg. Shinta's heart is pumping faster. His feelings are hard to control.
It cheats his name!
