Melanesia

Tonight was so boring, I just lay down and daydream.


Tomorrow there is no duty at all, so tonight is free. But still


it's boring to just lie down, hmm I'm so bored. What good is it?


“Nona dinner is ready,” said Jeni.


“Iyaa, I'll be there.”


Jeni then lowered her head and left.


Dinner huh? All I remember is lunch. Because


lunch is the most wonderful time of my life, I can eat both


with Angga during the break. Moreover, uhh, eat together with provisions


lunch of Angga. Don't think too much about it later I'm diabetic


any more.


I got up from the sleeping position to sit on the bed.


I glanced at the large mirror in my room, I approached


the mirror and look in the mirror, look at my face that looks happy because


thinking about the break last afternoon at school. All right, tomorrow we have lunch


using my provisions, I have to have lunch with Angga with lunch


my goddamn.


What is tonight? Ahh I know. Tonight is good for us


just relax in the square, I will invite Jeni to accompany me there, if


dad's at home I'm going with him, dad when's he coming home? I


longs.


And again dinner is prepared better I go there, I


go to the dining room for dinner.


I walked to the dinner table and when I got there I saw


delicious seafood dishes, because I saw seafood I remembered something


when I first entered school at Garuda Abadi. Angga who forgot to bring the provisions


lunch and then eat together using my provisions, my lunch


it was seafood lobsters.


I still remember the expression on his face while eating seafood, she said. I


thinking of that while smiling herself until seen by Jeni and


the other waiter, maybe from Jeni's point of view I'm like a crazy person


canengar cengar himself.


“Nona? Miss why?” ask Jeni.


“It's okay,” I replied with a Happy smile.


“Food is ready miss, please.”


“Good.”


This is my chance to tell Jeni to accompany me to the square,


in a house, sometimes boring.


“Jeni tonight I want to go to the city square, later accompany


I went there,”, I said.


“Good miss, tumben once miss wants to go to the square,” Jeni


the curious.


“I just want to relax, nothing else,”


“Alright I understand, after dinner is over I will


prepare the vehicle for you.”


I'd love to take Angga along to the square, but


I'm afraid to interrupt Angga's night, I don't know if Angga's schedule is night


it's empty or not. If not, I would love to take her. Been more


well I go alone and enjoy the atmosphere tonight.


Finally dinner is over


aslo. Okay, now I have to get ready to go casually to the square.


“Art prepare vehicle now.”


“Good miss.”

After I had dinner and also a shower, I was getting ready to go to


the square with Safira. And I got permission from dad to bring


the bike, maybe later when I go home I will take Safira home together.


Sounds romantic.


“I'm leaving!” I shouted to the house man.


“Yaa, heart – hearts!” sahut.


Seeing my dad's bike made me think, what this bike is already on


gasoline fill? I also checked the motor tank because of the gasoline parameters in the motor


dad's broken. When I opened the gas tank the motor turned out to be a little


maybe enough to leave. Dad, why not fill it up. I also


go back inside and tell dad.


“Daddy gasoline motor has stayed a little longer exhausted,” said the


watching dad watching TV.


“Then all fill full yaa,” said father with no


facing me.


Hadeuh dad.do you think maybe you let me because of motor gasoline.


run out, so that all of you are stuffed by me, this is what if you have a cheating father, so,


I was forced to fill my motorbike because I was the last one to use


motor.


Alright, I'll be on my way to the pom first


petrol. Then I leave now, I'm afraid Safira waited a long time


to leave.


I haven't driven a motorcycle in the night, the atmosphere


cold cool and calm. Riding a motorbike at night is something that


makes my brain feel relaxed, but the pull of this motor has started to be heavy, natural


this bike has been a long time.


In front of me I saw a gas station, so I stopped by


first before continuing the journey to the square, I also turn


go to the gas station to fill up the gas. How safira is it? He has arrived or


not yet?


Sapphires

Alun – Alun


Where's that rancid boy? I've been


up on the highway across the square, we made a deal here but I


first one arrived. Well then, so now I'm the one who has to wait for her, really


so annoying.


I thought he had arrived so I hurried


come here because I don't feel good making him wait, but in reality


it was the opposite, I had to wait for him. I haven't had any contact yet


to contact her. You komodo boy.


Then I'll take a walk for a while


than waiting for the boy. I didn't expect tonight to be so crowded


this, I think because it's not weekend night so few people are


come by.


See family together enjoying the night


his day in the town square made me envious, I wanted it so much together


my family went together to the square to relax, it must have been a lot of fun.


Suddenly my phone sounded. Me too


open it immediately.


“Honey, are you enjoying the atmosphere


square?” Phone call from my mom.


“Iyaa, I really like her atmosphere,”


answer me from the phone.


“Then how your friend what is he


already arrived?”


“Not yet, he hasn't arrived.”


I saw signs of his existence


just no, how can I say he's here.


“Then good luck waiting for a friend


you were late,” taunted my mother with a smile emot.


Mother, did she intentionally taunt me


like that, I'd love to be called by my mom. I feel lonely


I was enveloped in the presence of my mother even if it was just a phone, that too


that's enough for me.


I decided to go back to the place


our agreement is to check if he's arrived yet, and it turns out


the rancid boy has not arrived. Unplug once waiting for it, do not let because


waiting for me to get sleepy and sleep on the road.


“Your friend is female or male?”


phone call from my mom.


“He's a boy,” I replied.


“Is she your boyfriend? If


as soon as you introduce your mother dong, you want to meet her,” she said with


using a sweet smile emot.


“This mother..she's not my boyfriend, she's just.


my friend only, mother also does not need to meet the komodo child this one.”


“Komodo boy?”


“Iyaa.


because he was so long ago, I've been waiting for him from earlier.”


“You so sweet once,” with


emot smile.


“Mother...”.


“Iyaa-iyaa sorry,” with emot


smile and laughter.


“Then enjoy the night


in the square,” said my mother then hung up her phone.


This mother was always in her condition


like this still mocked me, even though he was clearly just a friend


I who had just met at school and immediately suddenly invited me


streets in the town square.


“Safira!!” the sound of screaming from the direction


behind me.


I turned and turned towards


behind me and seeing that it was the Komodo dragon boy, finally came also him, he said,


if not, I'll just go home.
