The Oldest Blossoms

That afternoon I accompanied Rey to the hospital. Mami Rey insisted she wanted to go home, said she felt better and wanted me to be there to accompany her home. Her father Rey who is now one of the important officials in the police force can only be submissive. Luckily the docer and the hospital director were good friends of his so they could comply and prepare quickly.

"Mommy next time can't gini well. Papi doesn't taste as good as Hardi. Papi repotin he just" protests his papi Rey while pushing his wife's wheelchair into their home.

Rey's house looks big. White and looks natural style. There is a small pond in the house and a small garden nearby.

"Mommy rest in the room. Let me drive" Rey said later but Rey's mom's hand grabbed my wrist.

"miss can cook? "

"ahh.., why auntie? " I feel a little surprised.

"Masakin's sop well. Aunty's hungry" she said very spoiled.

"Miii.., it can't be ah. Later let papi order in use goofood"

"Don't want ah. Mami wants Miss's cooking" Rey's mom starts to wander. He is like a child who wants to win on his own. Rey just scratched her scratching her head while glancing at me.

"yes. ms. masakin. Aunt rest first dad. " I said I agreed. Rey's mom's face looked so happy. Rey then took him into her room not far from the dining room.

I stepped into the kitchen. A large family photo still appears hanging on one wall of the living room. Rey's family photo looks so good. Rey has only one sister. She looks beautiful wearing a pink kebaya. He's a tourism scholar. Well it is in accordance with his hobby of traveling and touring abroad. I knew him because he was my senior for 2 years in High School.

"I'm sorry, you're so bothered" Rey said as we cut carrots in the kitchen. Bad-hearted Rey helps me to cook soup for her mom.

"You don't work? "Manyu diverted his guilt.

"Not too busy. The task is also completed. stay a report"

"hemm. "

"Let's take care of mommy for a second. I'll get out, after that I'll anterin you go home "

"ok"

Shortly after finishing processing food ingredients into hot soup. Rey left too. Rey's dad also took a break in the living room. He watched the TV news broadcast that afternoon.

"Enak... "Said Rey's mom as we sat together in the dining room. I just smiled a little. Looking at her mama rey who was enjoying a bowl of soup order.

"You're good at cooking" he said after finishing the soup bowl.

"Moreover keeping me independent aunt."

"Your parents must be very proud to have a girl like you. "She said while stroking my sweet hand. I saw a sadness on his face.

"Rey is also very proud" I said comfortingly but it was not enough to please the middle-aged woman. He was soon down. Looks like she's crying. He wiped his cheeks .

"Tan... " I said as I held her hand. He looked at me for a moment while trying to smile.

"If Rey's brother hadn't run away with that brash guy. Maybe aunty wouldn't be like this" she complained sadly. I then stroked his sweet shoulder. I felt sadness from the sound of his sobs that began to sob.

"You just marry rey. " Saying him made me silent.

"You guys have been dating for a long time and again you will also soon finish your S2mu. aunt will talk to Rey. Auntie thinks she'd agree. "

"aunty me.... "

"If you want a happy aunt. You guys marry yeah... " Take it again to make my mouth heavy to say no.

"You've been quiet from now on. Wh why? " Task Rey as we were on our way to my house that night.

"Ah no"

"Mommy said something to you?" Guess Rey. I'm staring. Did Rey know about her mom's intentions that I thought to myself.

"It's not because of mom's will. I also want to marry you" Again Rey bluntly expressed her intentions in front of me.

"Rey.... "

"I know non. Maybe it's too fast and it's surprising for you. Waiting for you all this time is not easy for me either. " Light Rey without looking at me. He was still focusing on driving on a rather quiet road.

"I won't make you either. I just don't want to waste the chance "

"You don't know how I am. We've never been this close before either. You're talking about getting married. Isn't that too sudden? "

"That's why I want to get closer to you. I want to understand you better"

"Rey... "

"Don't tell me you don't love me ?" Said Rey cutting. He looked at me for a moment and then stopped the car.

"Since we were in High School. I always pay attention to you. Your movements and all your behavior. Even if you are not aware of it. I'm so impressed with your personality. And I also know that you like me. Remember when I fell off the back wall of the school because I wanted to skip. That time you came with a p3k box. From there I realized you care about me. " remember Rey.

"It's been a long time" I said, and Rey approached me to make my heartbeat beat.

"It's still so now, isn't it?" He said guess. I just fell silent and bowed. It's hard for me to admit it not because Sonia is Rey's ex but because time is no longer on my side.

"Did it..? " Rey asked once more while raising my face so close to her.Rey's breath felt so warm touching my cheek.

"Don't joke like this. It's not good that anyone will see "I said as I pushed Rey slowly. Rey leaned back in her seat and drove back to her car.

"Thank you for saying, I went in first" I said goodbye. Rey stepped small to get me. I just kept quiet with a question in my heart about what he did then. Why is he walking so close to me.

"I love you" Rey said softly after kissing my forehead. I looked into his eyes. She smiled with pleasure and then left me.

I went into my room, I stood near the mading and looked at Rey's picture there. It was late at night until I could hear the sound of the clock ticking from my wekker clock. "Lord.., can you hear me? even if I can only scream in my heart, please give me a little more time"
