THE MENTARI FOR ESTUARY SEASON 2

CHAPTER 56, A LITTLE NAME AND A STORY

Early in the morning, Riana's phone rang. He stopped his typing, turned his head. A moment later, his forehead had already tripled so deep in his frown. It's Sunday, who calls him this early?

Riana indifferently, continued her typing. The task must finally be completed, because he wants to rush to pass. Yesterday, everything was delayed since Yura dropped to death. Riana was so busy in the D FM office that she forgot altogether the final task.

“Jeez, this HP persistent very struggle, like an athlete. Who the hell called these weeks?” riana's Nagging. And in the end, the girl paused her typing for a moment, then switched to a phone that was charging on her bedside nightstand. And a moment later, his eyes perfectly rounded, because on the display of his phone is written horror “Papa is calling”.

Riana pressed her chest. What kind of feeling is this? After all these years he left (and was never sought), now, in what year, he calls again. There must be something important if this is how it happened. And though his hands were trembling, but the resolve of the girl was already round, he would answer the call, no matter what.

“A-A-Assalamu’alaikum, pa..” greet the girl down.

“Waalaikum greetings... Dance, how are you?” Nyes! Like having just been doused in a bucket of ice water, Riana felt a fierce chill all over her body. Dance or Mentari is a small call – or arguably the favorite call of both parents first. The last time he heard the call was spoken so gently and mannis was when he was eight or nine, and now, his papa calls him by that name again...

“Tari, Mentari, you're still there right?” ask the father again.

“I-yes, pa, Ta-Dance here, thank God, Dance well. Papa how?” ask Riana back.

“Papa good, son... Ri, don't want to go home first?” Riana jerked. His father, the dictator... Ask home?

“Se-Sebennya already have a plan anyway pa, but, let Tari finish the thesis first, because Tari has been delayed a month because there are some changes related to work, so, so, this is to Dance first, all graduations..”.

“You're in college?” ask her father a little surprised. No, Riana was astonished herself. N-no matter what his father is?

“Yeah, that's pa...” replied Riana soberly.

“Do you need to come at your graduation?” ask her father carefully.

“Se-luangnya papa aja, if it can not, yes no papa, there will be Ganesha, he wants graduation as well.”.

“Gosh!” across there, the papa rubbed his forehead. He did not expect that his children's decision to leave (and without ever looking for it) had brought about such a great and many changes. Feeling that there was nothing to talk about anymore, Riana said goodbye to her father, then hurriedly hung up the phone. He must do something before all the negative thoughts that settle in his mind have a negative impact on all the things he will and must do later.

***

Riana upset? Yes, it turns out, all the negative thoughts that settle and develop in his head have turned the small things that were regular into a little mess. He did not leave the room all day except when he had to meet some guests who wanted to work with D FM. In addition, he was also really hunted for time, had to complete his script so that he could pursue graduation right this year.

[My dear, what time are you home today?]

[Today I didn't forget lunch, did I? My future wife should not shrink you know, later not tender again cheeks.]

[I know you're not okay right now. Wait for me yes, I will come and heal your wounds. Saranghae, Ment.] Riana smiled in a knot between the top three chats that not only cooled her eyes, but also her heart. That was a chat from... Who else if not the Estuary?

[Hi my dear, yes, I did not forget. The work is not too much today, so it can be taken as a revision of the thesis. Geez, really want to finish soon, continue graduation and continue my ideals as a teacher. But like D FM I will not stay anyway, so I do not want to be a regular school teacher like before, I want to teach at a non-formal institution because the time is more flexible. BTW you yourself have not?] And Riana immediately grimaced then once knew on her PC screen had plastered the writing “Vote is typing”. Though his reply chat was all along the way memories so, why do you know Muara already preparation for the balesanya? Got a speed reading technique where's it from?

[Astagfirullah Muara Devan, kanko lak crew dewe met seh, lapo ndadak kangen-kangen goods?] Muara is typing.

[Oweeek does not want VC owneeeeek.] and inevitably, finally Riana ngakak as well. It turns out Muara is a type of fast learner yes, the proof is now he can already imitate the style of Ganesha who “pretend to be baby” to get something, especially if the thing requested is from his girlfriend.

***

D FM office area. The estuary is already there – and as usual, she behaves so sweetly by opening the left passenger door for Riana.

“Welcome, princess..” he said while smiling sweetly.

“Thanks, my prince. BTW, how is it at work today?” ask Riana.

“All okay dear... How are you?” ask the Back Quote.

“Yes are the same, but tomorrow Ma'am Tita will handle everything, because I have to guidance..” replied Riana.

“Semangan yaa, hopefully this is the last revision,” Muara said sincerely.

“Iyaa, amiins... BTW sorry yes, so we can not graduate together because I am late.” said Riana felt guilty.

“Gak papa again, after all, there is still Ganesha, you will graduate with him later, so the most inspiring pair of brothers. Not many family members are willing to accept really with the chest condition of a different brother, this could be a good example for many people, and I'm sure, it's a good example, your sister must feel very proud and lucky to have a sister like you, a sister who is good as an angel.”.

“What angel's kayak? I once acted without a heart like him, leaving him crying even until begging me not to leave the house first. And once ALLAH loves my chance to meet and be with him again, I do not want to miss that opportunity again.” said Riana slowly. And because it was carried away by those memories, suddenly his eyes were already glazed. Really, leaving Ganesha when it was the dumbest thing in his life. At the age of almost adulthood, he could not consider well all the decisions he would take, he was still inferior to his ego at that time.

“It feels like everyone must have made a mistake. But what differentiates it all is whether the person is serious and intent on fixing it is not, and I guess, you are one of those different people ; you've tried very hard to improve everything, make up for the time that was lost, even Ganesh can metamorphose into a cool and invincible figure like now, it's thanks to whose guidance if not his brother?” said Muara long-width. Riana smiled. This voice, it could always cool his heart.

“That much played a part in Ganesha's transformation was not only me, but Hanum as well. I wonder, there are women who can like that, really love pure unconditionally, want to be invited, invited to fall, wake up, fall again, wake up again, wake up again, get up again, until the child can actually stand perfectly upright.”.

“Yes that is, so I will be very disappointed if until Ganesha nyia-nyiain women as well as that,” Muara said.

“Sampe her assortment yes not finely chopped, love salt and pepper, baluri flour, then fry in hot oil to tanned.”.

“Shortly, darling. You're laper, huh? How to be a cooking tutorial anyway?” Muara.

“Don't know yes, I think yes. Kupang lontong yummy nih Ra, afternoon-afternoon gini.” says Riana half mode.

“Lho, yo come on, still here. Gaskeun Kenjeran nih?” ask Muara. Riana just nodded. Basic, it turns out he's actually a laper, sodara.
