The Smile of God for Marissa

Camp Refugee 5

From a distance I saw the doctor Irawan stepping towards the door of the mushola. I immediately prepared to call the young doctor and relay Syamsa's message. My heart was pounding as if I was the one going on a date with that doctor.

Ring my veil, though I know that my veil and appearance have not been good since yesterday. Stay tangled and coupled with the smell of my body all day sweating.

I saw Doctor Irawan was done wearing his shoes. He stood up and started to step up, getting closer and closer.

“Doctor “ call me slowly. The young doctor stopped and smiled as he approached me. He went straight to the chair that I had made a place to wait for him. Nina just saw me and was engrossed again with her activities of catching dragonflies and butterflies.

“Wah, this place is very convenient huh? Since when have you been here ? Do not-don't after finishing praying you are deliberately waiting for me to sit chatting with you huh ? “ god.

I smile.

“Doctor's right. After the completion of the prayer I indeed continued to sit here, looking at the scenery presented in front of me, and paying attention to the movements of someone's movements. I was waiting for him but not to invite him to chat here” doctor Irawan frowned.

“Then ?” continued.

“i am indeed waiting for doctor Irawan.” My words blushed. I made sure she would suspect that I would ask her out.

“Because you want to ask me out on a date?” goda.

“Nah Lo's. Isn't that right ?” I said while patting my forehead. “ Doctor, I am not waiting for you to ask you out with me.” My welcome.

“Then ? “ tanyanya curious.

“ Here , Doc. Last time I sat with Nina in the back of school, Syamsa came up to me crying.” I'm silent for a moment. Hearing the name Syamsa, the face of the doctor Irawan immediately flushed red. I can only duck. Don't know what to say next.

“Dok, “ call me slowly.

“Continue !” strict orders. I took a deep breath just to get rid of my nervousness.

“Syamsa told me to tell you that after this ashar, he's waiting for you in the back garden of the school. There is something he should talk about he said.” I took a long breath again. It was good after conveying the trust. I waited for Doctor Irawan who was still staring.

“Good.” Said.

“Alhamdulillah.” My words give thanks.

“Tapia from the terms.” Slowly connect. I looked at his face to make sure that the doctor was the one talking.

“What are the conditions? I'll tell Syamsa.” My solute.

“You must want to marry me.” Legally.

“A . What ? Me ? Married ? With doctor Irawan?” many times I asked a short question sentence and many times he nodded his head.

“If you refuse I won't see him.”

“I don't want.” I'm firm.

“If you don't want why should I come to the back garden? Taka da reason I met him there.” Reciprocity. Doctor Irawan stood up and left me. I don't want to catch up with him.

***

Time pass.

Nina and I immediately walked into the kitchen. I don't want to go back to the health epic not because I don't feel sorry for Nina. I deliberately avoided so that Doctor Irawan would not spill his frustration on me. There was no reason for me to accept the terms he proposed because I felt disinterested in their affairs. I don't want to pawn my future because for me marriage is not an event that can be run without a plan.

For a moment I thought. I opened my eyes to all the corners of the kitchen. I'm looking for Nina but nil. I don't want to lose him today. I'll take steps to ensure that Nina is in a safe condition.

I'm moving my feet out of the soup kitchen. I looked one by one at the children in the courtyard, but I could not find the child I was looking for.

“Who are you looking for, Ris ?” Lina. He looked at my face and then his eyes followed my direction.

“You know where Nina is?” I asked in panic. Lina nodded.

“So his uncle came from Jakarta. “

“Continue, now where are they ?”

“In eighth grade A.” Sahut Lina relax.

“I don't know where that space is, Lin. Can you take me there ? “ Lina pulled my hand and led me along in her footsteps. Class A is at the southern end. It is opposite to mushola. I'm stunned. In class it was like there was no Nina's voice.

“Sepi, Lin.”

“ They were inside. Nina is sleeping with her aunt.” Lina Sahut. “Yuk we just find, do not give asa, Ok?” his ray. I just nodded as I continued to step towards the room measuring Nine by seven meters.

Knock on the door for a moment and wait for a response from inside the room.

“Log in!”

It turns out Lina was right. There's someone inside. I went in and I saw two men and one woman. Nina was lying on a table lined with blankets.

“Sorry, I heard that uncle and aunt Nina came. That's why I'm here to confirm the truth.”

Samsul, the village chief of Kemanukan looked at Marisa and let her sit down.

“Begini Mbak Risa, from yesterday, this is Mas Udin and this is his wife. They just came from Jakarta. They intend to bring Nina with them stay in Jakarta.” Mr. Syamsul explained.

“ Yes Mbak. I've heard that during this disaster, Ms. Risa's babysitting my niece. I feel sorry for Risa and Nina. Ms. Risa is a student who of course has many tasks and affairs. Nina is very small and still needs attention. Of course as the only family, the responsibility of parenting is in my hands.” Uncle Nina explained. I just nodded. My eyes are starting to heat up. There was a sad who immediately enveloped me. I wanted to tell them that I could take care of Nina, but I paused because I felt I had nothing on Nina.

“Mbak.” Uncle Nina called me.

“Sa . . . I pack.’ My solute.

“Mbak Risa can meet Nina if one day come to Jakarta, or Mbak Risa can meet Nina anytime if kangen Nina.” Her speech. He took a deep breath as if he felt what I was feeling.

“Em . ti . . . . It's okay, sir. I know Nina still desperately needs guidance from her relatives. I'm sincere because that's what I'm supposed to do. I will not be selfish, win alone with all my decisions. God willing I will come whenever Nina wills.”

“Thank you, Sister Risa. O yes, I will tell you that this afternoon we will bring Nina, because we happen to have no time off. We were home a few days ago, when the first landslide occurred and now can not stay long here.”

I couldn't believe what I just heard. It may be the second loss I have experienced, after I lost Qomar because he fell in love with Shamsa.

I turned my eyes to Nina who was still sleeping at the table. I want to embrace his body and drown in a sad atmosphere because of the breakup that will soon occur but I paled. I don't want to bother him because soon they're going to travel far.

At seven, Nina and her uncle and aunt left. Nina's still asking me to carry. Weeping remained faithful to accompany us who would part from each other, not knowing when we could meet again.

“Mbak Risa . . .” said Nina on the sidelines of her crying.

“What's the dear ?”

“Mbak Risa has to call me every day ya!” her door.

“ God willing definitely Nina. She would call Nina every day. Or if Mbak forgot, Nina who called Mbak Risa yes.”

“Iya Ma'am. “

“Already, yes Nina. Uncle and Aunt have been waiting outside. “ I immediately drove Nina to the parked car in the front yard. I handed over the notebook I filled with my phone number and address. And soon they left with prayer and tears.

"We're going home, Ris. We can't stay here. If your condition allows, we can come here again tomorrow.” I immediately agreed. Lina walked away from me, towards the infirmary to pick up my bag.

After a few minutes, Lina and I returned to the boarding house with Lina vario. The clock is still showing at eight, I feel dizzy still lingering in my head. I laid my body on the one hundred and twenty times one hundred and sixty cots. I closed my eyes just to reduce dizziness because the light hit my face.

“You're still dizzy, Risa? “ ask Lina worried. Lina was deliberately asked to accompany my sleep mini mala, because we planned to come again tomorrow after dawn to the refugee camp.

“Iya, Lin. But hopefully after I go to sleep, my belly can be gone.” Sahutku.

“We should eat first, Ris. Our diet became very bad after volunteering at the Kemanukan and the shelter school.”

Ting ting ting

The sound of bowls being hit.

“Bakso” we shout together. Lina and I looked at each other. And laugh together. It was still raining outside, but we still had to go out to fulfill our stomach.

Lina immediately ran out to call the meatballs. I set foot into the room of Mailuda, which I had not seen since my return.

“Da . .” I called Maulida while knocking on the door. It was quiet for a moment, but finally after a few calls, there was an answer from within.

“What's up, Ris?” I saw Maulida standing in front of me. He looks like he just woke up.

“You came home mini mala, Ris ?” tanyakanya. “ I think you stayed there.” Added. He immediately put down his blanket and walked towards me. We sat in the middle room. Maulida looked at the clock and shouted

“Astrichesaa”

I didn't know what had happened to her so she was hysterical.

“What's up?”

“It's right eight hours?” tanyakanya. I nodded in agreement and walked to the kitchen to take the bowl to change the position of the meatball bowl.

“It's eight o'clock in the morning what's eight o'clock in the night?” maulida asked still with a puzzled face.

“You why the hell, Da?” my question while investigating. He's completely confused.

“Jawab first.” His impact.

“Night.” Sahutku short.

“Oh my God”

“What's up?” Lina who had just entered carried a tray containing two bowls of meatballs confused by the situation we were in.

“I'm not yet asar.” Maulida.

“What ?” me and Lina immediately glared.

“Keep it's eight o'clock in the morning, meaning you leave asar, maghrib, isya and dawn you mean ?” tanyaku. “What time do you sleep from?” my connection.

Maulida just scratched her head. Shamefully he said “ of the sublime.”

“Whataaa?” again, Lina and I screamed. Maulida's face flushed.

“Keep how do I ? “ tanya confusion.

We both raised our hands declaring we didn't know.

“Whatever how you now take ablution, pray!” my firmness. Maulida passed, I told Lina to buy another bowl for Maulida.

Fifteen minutes later, Ida came and immediately sat down to take a position to eat. Without thinking long, he took the meatballs in the bowl adding chili, sauces and soy sauce. Five minutes later, he finished his meal and stacked his bowl with my bowl and Lina and took it to the kitchen.

“Thank you the meatballs yes,” he said while once again sitting where he just left off.

“Sama-sama.” Lina answered.

“What about refugee conditions ? Why are you guys home ?” tanyakanya. His face still looked at us full of search.

“Revacuation in safe condition under control.” Lina Sahut. Hearing Lina's reply, Maulida immediately laughed.

“Why is your answer like a subordinate reporting to the commander ?” he said still with his laugh.

Lina and I looked at each other not knowing what the standard subordinates and commanders were because we used to report it to each other in the regiment.

“ Yes ..ya . . yes, I know. You're all regiments. I have to understand.” Reciprocity. Not so at home. “

“We will work on.” Lina and I talked together by accident. Once again, Maulida laughed.

“You are so funny. Very compact, and ah . . . I don't know.” Maulida said as she grabbed the tv remote. For a moment the scenery in front of us changed, the television aired the evacuation of avalanche victims and the tone of the talkshow with subdistrict B and regent.

“Ihh what the hell are you, Da? Where's the funny try?” ask Lina furiously.

Hearing Lina speak in a loud voice, Ida immediately raised her hand sign of surrender.

“Ok, let's discuss something else. You haven't answered why you're home ?” tanyanya polo's.

“I'm dizzy, Da. I can't sleep there. Fear of adding weight. Better today tdur at home and tomorrow to there again.” Sahutku. “ Nothing important on campus right ?” my connection.

“Ada.” Speak Ida fast. “ There is a new lecturer on campus.”

“ O Yes ? killer isn't ? “ ask Lina curious.

“ You did not ask the lecturer what male female ?” god Ida flirty.

“Although men must be old right ?” suhut Lina while pursing her lips.

“Do not get it wrong. “

“Indeed his new lecturer is really cute Da ?” tanyaku.

I knew that if Ida had made such a riddle there must be something special she wanted to talk to us about.

“Just come to campus. “voice Ida sounds annoyed. “But don't regret that you won't meet him at your faculty.” Reciprocity.

“ Why ? “ my question is curious.

“ He is a lecturer of engineering faculty. Ha ha ha”

Maulida ran to avoid our pinching. He really likes flirting and it was his attitude that kept me entertained for a long time.

"Then if he's not my faculty lecturer why are you showing off to me?" I pretended to be angry.

"I just wanted to tell you. Perhaps by hearing there is a new lecturer you immediately want to see the campus. It's been a week not in college You relax no guilt then?"

"Maulida aaa"
