Should I Joke (Again)

47. I miss

Ardan laid his body on the bed in the living room of the house, his smile clearly visible on his face.

Well received by Mr. Hadi only he was happy, especially when expressing his good intentions actually getting support from Mr. Hadi and his wife.

Suddenly his mind floated, imagining Rei there. What is his heart, looking at his photos in the gallery.

From the first sight he had stolen the opportunity to capture a photo of Rei on various occasions.

Sometimes the absurd behavior that was accidentally recorded by the camera made him laugh.

"I miss, I'm sure you know.." Her inner voice, right as her hape screen rang with the same ringtone she was singing.

"Mama..." Ardan then shifted his screen, receiving a call from the woman who had given birth to him.

"Where are you, how come you don't eat breakfast at home. Yesterday he said he didn't want to take it, but breakfast is here tomorrow. Which evidence?" mama Ardan started to put on a ferocious fashion.

"You know what, mama until late breakfast because waiting for you, who was waiting even not nongol the stem of his nose."

"Yes, ma. Ardan admitted wrong." his voice was made concubine maybe, let his mama is not at length, but it turns out the assumption is wrong.

"Udah, now change videocall mama want to know where you are?" said later.

"Ready, boss" Ardan instantly changed the look of the video.

"Well, this is delicious. Uh, but where are you, this isn't your apartment." Mom started tracking him

"I'm afraid of surprise" Ardan's mind.

"Ardan at home om Hadi ma, Rei's father-in-law Anton's parents." replied Ardan, he began to put his head up.

Instantly his head was dizzy, remembering the mother who would continue to ask, probing.

"Pak Hadi, you mean." mama did not continue his words, because papa keburu took his hape.

"And, greetings are the same about Hadi and aunt. Say, papa and mama wait at home." Papa immediately cut off the mama's speech, and it benefited Ardan.

"okay, pa. Papa is the best" Ardan said later.

"Hey, you mean mama ga the best that yes, look out if you go home mama reply." attack mama.

Papa and Ardan just laughed, if the first lady starts a relapse in search mode, don't expect it to just come off.

"Ready ma, Ardan wait." Ardan laughed

"Udah ya ma, beautiful mama. Assalammualaikum"

"Waalaikumsalam" replied mom and dad together.

Ardan put back his hape and chose to rest.

"Om, the aunt got greetings from mom and dad, he said awaited his arrival at home" said Ardan when he was called the dining room.

"Actually, it's not dinner yet. But earlier, Ardan looked tired so aunty didn't wake up for lunch." Holy Mommy

"Father tan, Ardan is still full. This is Ardan, too, saying goodbye."

"Why do you want to go home, don't you want to come here?" ask the Holy Mother.

Ardan smiled. Actually he really wants to stay there, especially tomorrow there is a harvest of broccoli with farmers built by Om Hadi.

"Mama, I've never been young. Later Sunday night ma, time for apples." sloroh pak Hadi.

Ardan chuckled, his intention read aloud by om Hadi. And the Holy Aunt seemed to agree.

"And, um and aunt for help, you take care of Rei huh. He's all for us, if something happens to him then we will feel guilty for not being able to keep the deceased's mandate" Mr. Hadi looked at Ardan, trying to dive into his heart.

"Om and aunty, without being asked, I am happy to take care of all the body's soul."

"I know how Rei has been feeling all along, how he's been excluded and how he's woken up from his downturn. I won't disappoint you and aunt." Ardan said seriously.

He knew how risky he would take if it hurt Rei, not only his parents but also his deceased parents.

"Then, let's eat first let's not catch a cold." invite Holy Mother

Ardan is actually still lazy to eat, but refusing the invitation of parents is really disrespectful.

Be them having an afternoon meal, not a heavy meal as Ardan had guessed. Just a compote of bananas and tela, as well as yellow squash and a little jackfruit as an aroma enhancer.

"Sorry son Ardan, this is the only treat. If eating rice is now too late in the afternoon, his om is still full he said." the Holy Mother let Ardan enjoy his collars.

Pak Hadi and his wife also brought this favorite compote of Rei in the plastic container of the mother-emak nusantara idol.

While enjoying the compote, Mr. Hadi also told me about the house that the deceased gave to Rei.

Ardan seemed surprised because all this time he never knew about the house. Ardan doesn't matter, because it belongs to Rei completely.

And he did not want to bring any of the treasures of the deceased, because he could give them if they were officially married.

Mr. Hadi also said that Rei would rather be alone there if there was a problem. Means Miko's true remark the other day that Rei was not at his parents' house.

After giving the address of the house and some of Rei's favorite food, the Holy Mother also gave the house spare key, if at any time there is something urgent.

Somehow, her feeling as a mother felt the need to be on guard. And Mr. Hadi agreed.

"Om, my aunt said goodbye. Thank you for accepting me. I will always remember the message of om and aunt, and I will keep the mandate of the deceased" Ardan once again could not hold haru because they welcomed with open arms.

"Go home, be careful on the road. And we're going to propose to Rei to his parents." Mr. Hadi hugged him and nodded when he saw Ardan was surprised by his words.

The two old men were glad that Rei finally found his soul mate. Now the next mission is to apologize to Rei.

Ardan also drove his car, his heart was happy that his mission to ask the blessing of Anton's parents was not as difficult as he thought.

The journey back to the city was not as crowded as earlier, this time it seemed to be congestion on several roads because many residents chose a holiday or recreation with their families.

Even so Ardan was not in a hurry, he was driving leisurely at moderate speed. Because anyway getting there will be night.

###

The trip was stopped temporarily because the Maghrib adhan began to roar, after parking Ardan's car then headed to the musholla to pray.

Coincidentally there are some people who will pray together, Ardan followed even though a little late.

Before returning home Ardan stopped by the cafeteria at the rest area. He wanted to drink coffee because it seemed like his eyes were getting sleepy.

Drinking black coffee, enough to make the sleepiness disappear. And now Ardan is ready to continue his journey.

A few hours of traveling alone is unpleasant, lonely and boring.

But for the sake of getting his blessing and meeting his heart again, whatever he will do.

Is love not blind? And besides being blind, he also makes people who fall in love deaf, and a little crazy.

Arriving in the city, the atmosphere of the weekly night was visible in several corners of the city. Young people are seen in some places to hang out, in malls, squares, cafes, even in warteg.

It seems like it would be nice to eat seafood on the side of the road like this, Inner Ardan when passing through the pujasera area in his city.

And according to Ardan plan to drive his car to the address that has been given om Hadi. Let's just hope Rei is still there, because otherwise who will spend this compote.

Ardan looked grim, remembering how excited the Holy Aunt prepared all the luggage that was specifically given to her former daughter-in-law.

Mama will have a new rival, Ardan shook his head imagining his mother.

###

Did Ardan manage to meet Rei? Or if you refuse bananas and his friends will end up at his dining table because it turns out the owner is not in place. Let's see it later.
