Sulastri's Struggle.

Chapter 32

"Try here, I'm pouring massage oil," Arman pulled out a flattened bottle from a plastic bag. Opening the lid and then pouring into the palm intending to massage Tri's feet.

"Don't, I can do it myself" Tri took the bottle from Arman's hand, then dripped the warm-tasting oil to the sore spot, then scolded it. "Astagfirrullah's..." Tri Istighfar grimaced, it hurts so much.

"Eat him. nurut, leg sprains like this, not the origin of the massage, must know the theory, if wrong, just swell," said Arman then massaged the swollen leg plan.

"It's this way.I often, massage Dad's feet." Arman slowly recording Tri's legs.

"Hold a little yes..relax..hold it.." said Arman. Tri also did not feel as much pain as when he sorted himself.

Tri finally let it go, his legs were massaged by Arman. Tri secretly steals a glance at Arman's face which is visible from the side. As he got older, this guy got more handsome, not only that, Arman was actually a good guy. But all this time, he could only admire. Tri will not be able to break through the thick wall that is the heart of Sulis bu difficult Tri penetrated.

"It's a little limp yet?" ask Arman, 15 minutes later. There was no response from Tri. Arman raised his head to find Tri who was looking at him fixedly. Arman smiled happily.

"It's better yet?" Arman repeated the question. Arman catches Lastri's gaze on him, he can conclude that Tri's feelings for him are still the same as his feelings now.

"Edmm ... Dad, Mom, ask me what just now?" nervous Tri.

"Try the movement of your feet" Arman said.

Tri tried to lift his leg and then moved. "Oh yes, it has been mengingan Mas, thank you," Tri smiled looking at Arman.

"Either. Try to make a way, "Arman helps Lastri walk on his shoulder. Tri was able to walk even though his joints were still a little painful.

"It's good, just a little more" Tri replied looking down at his feet.

"Here and there, sitting down again," Arman returned to the oil, his skillful thumbs turning back between his ankles and heels.

"What is this oil? How's magic?" Tri lifted his sniffing bottle.

"Actually, it's not the oil, which is magical, but the one that uses jampe-jampe, hahaha.but, baby yes, jampe-jampe I can't save my little girl until my hair starts to whiten." kelakar Arman's.

"IIihhhh... seriously?" sulkan Tri's.

"Hahaha.yes, yes. I'm kidding, "Arman laughs at Tri when it's so adorable.

"This oil is powerful, if I finish boxing training with Dad, always in this oil. For sprains, bruises, broken bones, just heartbreaks that cannot be treated with this oil," Arman chuckled, staring at Tri who was staring at him as well.

"You should know Tri, heartbreak I'm the only one who can treat loh" Arman seriously.

"Huh! from that very jago nggombal anyway?!" Tri melengos's.

"Loh-loh, who's incompetent? I'm serious," Arman said at length.

The atmosphere again melted they also talked about the sweet love story of the two of them first.

"Oh yeah, you remember? we used to write in this cave, we're looking for yuk" said Arman, leading Tri into the cave, looking for among the many scribbles scratched by teenagers who overlap but their writing is still plastered real.

"Love you" 💘 Tri & Arman.

The two smiled at each other Arman wrote this, when Tri was still second grade SMK.

Flashbacks

"Tri. if you graduate later, we get married soon, yes" Arman told Tri. Tri just came home from school still wearing a gray white uniform, while Arman opened the teacher uniform and only wore a t-shirt, then stopped at that place.

"No, I want to go to college first Mas" Tri refused.

"Tri.. is not good, we both go and fro, although I promise to take care of you, not to do anything, but I'm a normal man, I'm afraid to be wrong" Arman said.

"But..." Tri did not continue his words. What he meant was that Sulis would not approve of it, but Arman thought otherwise.

"Why? college problems.I will definitely support you really, don't worry," explained Arman. Right what Arman said even though Tri is only 17 years old. But Arman is 25.

"Alright, but I'm afraid, Mother Mas Arman, definitely will not give your blessing," replied Tri pessimist.

"Just relax, Mother's problem, it's my business, after marriage I'll take you away, live a quiet life, have a funny child, and have a funny one, with the presence of a child, the heart of the mother will be broken and can bless our marriage,"

Flashback.

"Our husband gave us our dreams, we got married, yes" Arman persuaded him. Tri shook his head quickly.

"Why Tri?" Arman looked into Tri's eyes looking for answers.

"I want to focus on the lecture first, Mas," clearly depicted on Tri's face has a high spirit.

"Lecture? Aren't you done with college?" arman's face was wrinkled.

"I happened to get a scholarship S2, Mas. I'm not gonna waste this opportunity,"

Arman looked at Tri proudly, his little girl used to actually realize her dream. But there's fear. Afraid of losing him. Tri is beautiful, many like it, although the soul mate is not where to fight anyway.

"Tri, I will support you whenever you pursue your goals, but let me be by your side, take you when you leave, pick you up when you come home, and allow me to propose to you, marry you, marry you, seeing you when I wake up" Arman said honestly.

"I know Mas, but already three times, Mas said the word, but what? Fail and fail again," complained Tri is indeed true what was said. Already the third time, Arman said like that and in the end was not praised, because of the social status that became an obstacle for them.

"Now answer first, will you not, be my irtri?" Arman turned to the left where Lastri was sitting who was salting playing an oil bottle.

"You. but let me finish my S2 first. I can't meet your mother's criteria for being a rich woman like her, but at least I feel fit to be with you, it's not a shame to be with you or with your mother," tri replied there was a deep sense of trauma painted on his face.

"Now I want to go home Mas, it's late afternoon, must be the same father Mother waiting," Tri went limping but just two steps Arman held back.

"Wait for Tri I'll take you" Arman held down Tri's arm.

"I'm just riding, Mas."

"Tri.. don't be stubborn, you think I can let you go home limp like this? Come on, don't argue, "spontaneously Arman lifts Tri's body. Tri was flabbergasted to let Arman take him to the motorcycle parking lot.

Then, Arman drove Tri home.
