The House Without Doors

Chapter 9

Saga rushed back home because on campus, he had no activities at all. While walking out of the gate, he sees Yasya chatting, which seems like a matter of college work with someone.

Saga recalls that he owes Yasya a debt. Saga approached Yasya after she had a chat. When approached, it was certain that Yasya immediately felt annoyed. But he tried to challenge himself first to face the man who often made him upset.

"Yes..." Sapa Saga while raising her hand.

"Yes," Yasya replied as he folded his hands and turned his face away.

"Noah. Lo mah it is mulu!! I saw someone else talking relaxed. Turn to talk to me, immediately changed that nature."

"Bodo!"

"Gue inget if I have the same debt lo."

"Where's jude?!" Yasya held out his hand.

"Forgot to bring money. I came here impromptu. How about at the ATM?"

"Judah you take it!"

"Sama lo lah's. I went back to campus again. Go straight home."

"Yes anyway. I want to go back too. Yaudah come!" yasya shouted without protest.

They both went to the nearest ATM to withdraw money. Saga asks how much to pay, Yasya tells him. After he finished withdrawing the money, Saga immediately gave it to Yasya.

"Thanks, yeah..."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Yes already. Done it. From now on you don't show up in my life anymore" Yasya turned his face away.

"OKAY. But first eat together."

Yasya looked at Saga. He took a deep breath before speaking, "Okay. Because you are good. I want. Where to eat?"

"Udah come along first," Saga pulled her hand and invited her to go to a restaurant.

"Can't you just don't hold my hand and keep going?"

"Yes. Nih detachable," Saga took off her hand. The two of them walked next to each other to the nearest restaurant.

Just getting in front of the restaurant, Yasya immediately paused his intention.

"Gue go home. It must be expensive food here. I cook at home."

"Judah come!" Saga pulls Yasya's hand back.

Yasya cleared his throat and made Saga stop stepping. He looked at Yasya's face. Yasya just stared at his hand, Saga immediately realized what he was doing.

"Sorry forgot! Hehe!"

"Where are you going?"

"Follow it out."

Saga invites Yasya to go to the super market to buy groceries. As Saga was sorting out and picking, asking this that, Yasya just folded her hands and stared cynically.

"Why the hell?" yasya asked when she saw Saga putting food in the trolley.

"Buy food. Keep cooking, we'll eat together at your house."

"Well done!"

"Well, this has already been chosen."

"Can't pay yet."

"Now pay for it." Saga walked towards the cashier and was about to pay for groceries. While Yasya, he walked away. Saga was unconscious until he reached the cashier. While waiting for her groceries to be counted, Saga stared back and forth at Yasya and the cashier who was serving her.

After finishing Saga immediately ran fast to chase Yasya. Yasya was walking towards the stop. Saga ran as fast as lightning until he was right next to Yasya with a gasping breath.

"Yes. Why anyway? He said he wanted to eat together."

"So. I'm off the batalin."

"Lo take it home."

"Yes. I'm taking it home to you."

Yasya was silent. They didn't talk to each other again after the conversation until they both got on the bus. On the bus they sat together because the bus was not so full. Saga is still trying to persuade Yasya to accept him to come to her house.

"Yes, can't I know your house? Know the same lo? Know the world?"

"No."

"Yes. Oye. Can oru..." Saga is too confused to persuade Yasya until she brings out her Sundanese language.

"Hhhhh," Yasya growled. He decided to get off the bus even though the destination was still far away. But Saga followed him from behind.

Yasya walked down the sidewalk quickly. He thought that Saga would give up and stop following him. But no, Saga continued to walk behind him with both hands carrying two large bags of groceries.

"Yes. Take a taxi? Cape."

Yasya doesn't care. His sweat had poured out profusely soaking his temples. His face was red and his breathing was puffed. Until he stopped his steps.

"Enough! Enough to follow me. Go!"

"Gue just wants to go to your house, what's wrong?!"

Yasya let out a long sigh, "OK."

"Judek. We took a taxi, yeah. Cape."

Saga stopped the taxi. They both got into the taxi and went back. There was no conversation between them. Every time Saga tries to open a conversation, her attempts fail. Yasya didn't care about it. He only focused on directing the taxi driver according to his direction. He did not tell his location.

"Yes. Where are we going anyway? I think the area of your house is too late."

"Lo wants to know about me, right? You want to go to my house? You want to know my world, right?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Judek. It's diem!"

***

After directing long enough, they also arrived at a place. Yasya came out followed by Saga. He gripped Saga's hand tightly and pulled her.

"Yes, slow down."

Yasya did not care about Saga's words. He kept walking quickly while gripping Saga's strong hand.

Until they get somewhere. The place that made Saga feel something was wrong. Yasya invites Saga to go to a place that might make Saga stop following him. Perhaps with this, he has no more business with Saga as Saga will feel alien to his world.

They stopped in front of a room with the door locked. But they could see inside the room behind the window.

"That, Ga. That's my world" Yasya said with his head bowed.

Saga was just stunned silent. He did not believe what he saw. He placed two large bags that he had brought. He brought his face to the window and looked at a woman who was sitting still and looked grim.

"Yes. g.. I.." Saga was stunned and could not say what. He felt shocked. He did not know what to react to something in front of him.

"Lo knows now, right? So, now you go, Ga! Go!" yasya snapped for Saga to get out of there. Unconsciously his eye peluhan was filled with water that would overflow.

"But Sya. I-i..."

"Go, Ga!! Go!!" Yasya pushed Saga's body to get Saga away immediately. But Saga persists and he tries to calm Yasya down.

"Yes..."

Yasya's defense collapsed. Body's limp. Cry broke. Her tears flowed hard. He was sobbing but he kept trying to get Saga out of there. Get out of his world, "Go, Ga!! I said go!! Go on!! Go!!!" yasya said raucously with a hand lashing out at Saga for Saga to leave. But Saga immediately held and pulled her hand until Yasya's body was immersed in a warm embrace that she had only felt for the first time. The hug that comes from a man he hates most. The man he wished to be removed from the universe but instead came and entered his life.

"Yes, yes," said Saga as she hugged and gently rubbed Yasya's hair.

"Go, Ga. I live in my world that has no direction. There lived me, my sister, and an old woman whose soul was sick. Stayin, Ga," Yasya cried in that embrace while still hitting and trying to get Saga to leave.

But Saga doesn't care as much as Yasya tells him to go. He knew that right now Yasya really needed a good friend who would accompany him. Especially after he knew the world of Yasya which turned out to be so strange and dark. The world with many difficulties. A world inhabited by her, by her sister, and by a mother who has a breakdown in her good soul.
