THE SOUL FROM GOD

Chapter 23. First meeting

Distance cannot separate couples who have been in a relationship for a long time without touch,

That night, I decided to leave for Ambon city tomorrow morning, because I wanted to meet with Thomi, who all this time we only had a relationship by phone.

After I finished packing some of the things I was going to bring, I lay down on the bed, telling Thomi, if I'm going to see her tomorrow.

"Honey, tomorrow I go to Ambon, you pick me up." I said in the message I sent to Thomi.

"Dear, I'll pick you up." Thomi replied briefly to me, feeling impossible.

That morning I got ready and then I met Mom who was doing the laundry, and told Mom that I was leaving.

"Oh, I'm off to Ambon, I'll be back in a few days, because there's a school day off in the future." I said to Mom, standing looking at Mom who was drying clothes in the washing machine.

"Yes El, you be careful. When you arrive, don't forget to tell Mom." My mother said I was worried.

"Yes Buk, I'll call you when I get to Ambon." I answered Mom, then walked to the front porch.

"Don't forget to call Thomi to pick you up El." Mother said to me as she walked towards the terrace and stood with me.

"Yes Buk. I walk yes, bye Mother ... " I said then walking towards the main road to wait for Ojek.

A lot of bikes are going back and forth but I'm still standing by the side of the road waiting for the right motorcycle taxi driver.

"Mom's Object." Shouted a young man passing by on his motorbike.

"No! thanks." thanks." I answered with a smile for a moment, and stood still.

Seen from afar, a father riding his motorbike very carefully, apparently this Father is looking for passengers. When the Father was about to arrive near me, the Father gestured by raising his index finger, then stopped in front of me.

"Mom want an ojek?" ask the Father in a soft voice.

"Yes sir." I answered, then stepped forward near the bike.

"Where are you going, Mom?" ask the father before riding his motorcycle.

"To port sir." I answered while sitting on my motorcycle.

The motor drove off and I finally arrived at the port, after paying the taxi fare, I walked into the waiting room, waiting for the door to open for us to be able to walk towards the ship.

This time I did not buy a ticket, because the money I had was mediocre, I sat quietly while praying in my heart.

"God ease my journey, I don't have the money to buy tickets, help me and protect me until I get to Ambon. Amen."

Now it's time to check the ticket, so you can get to the ship.

"Consideration Father and Mother of the passengers who will depart, please show each of your tickets." Said one of the Mr. Port Officer.

Some people had shown their tickets then, walking towards the ship, I sat waiting for the right situation then I walked towards the exit.

"Excuse me, where's the ticket?" ask the officer to me.

"It's Sir." My answer was short, showing me my old ticket.

"Yes, please." Said the Officer to me.

I walked a few steps quickly, then, it was getting faster in order to find a place to sit. I finally arrived on the boat and I chose to sit in the canteen of the ship, drinking the tea I bought from the canteen.

"Excuse me sir, I'll order some warm tea." I said to the canteen guard, sitting down.

"Yes, Mom, just a minute." The canteen guard answered me.

"This is Mom's tea, please." Say the canteen guard while putting one glass of warm tea.

"Yes, thank you sir." I answered the guard.

While enjoying a glass of warm tea, I told Thomi that I was already on my way.

"Thom, I'm off, pick me up later." I wrote in a message sent to Thomi via sms.

"Right El, don't joke." Thomi replied to me.

I sent him some pictures of me while I was on the boat to make him believe. Thomi is currently in Ambon, where she lives with her younger brother at a boarding house, which she has lived for a long time. Thomi lives in Ambon because there is work to do with her cousin.

"Yes Thom, when I arrive at the port I will let you know, if my phone is not active I will borrow someone to contact you." I replied to Thomi, then I continued to drink tea.

After I finished, drinking tea I walked to the deck of the ship to find an empty bed, when I got there and looked for an empty bed a father called me.

"Ade, find what?" ask the father to me

"Bed sir, I was in a hurry so I couldn't buy a ticket." I answered while looking left and right between all the beds.

"Oh, here Ade, it happens that no one who occupied the father deliberately put the bag on the next bed so that others know this bed is already occupied." The man answered while moving his bag from the bed.

"Yes, thank you sir." I answered and then sat on the bed.

"Dad, have you eaten?" ask my father.

"It's Sir." My answer is short

I laid my body on the bed, and tried to sleep so that I would not feel the current waves of the sea. A voice called me.

"Daddy, do you like to eat chips?" ask the father to me while holding a packet of banana chips.

"Yes sir." I answered briefly, then got up and sat down.

"This is for you, I bought two packs, take one for you." Said the Father while handing me a packet of chips.

"Who are you in Ambon?" ask the Father to me.

"I live with my family." Answer me

"Oh yes." Answer the Father.

"I was a bad boy, sir, because I was dizzy." I said to my father and then lay down.

"Oh yes, please." Answer the Father briefly.

I fell into a deep sleep, and forgot the taste of the waves of the sea that made my head feel so dizzy.

It didn't feel like it was getting late and the boat was almost at the harbor, I was surprised to get up and think of a way to contact Thomi to get her to pick me up. After the notification from Kep, and the ship was docked.

"It's still a headache?" ask the father when he sees me awake.

"No sir is out." Answer me

"Oh he, Father's name, Yance call me Mr. Yan." Said Mr. Yan telling his name.

"My name is El." Answer's short.

"Good afternoon, please note that in about fifteen minutes the ship will arrive at the port of Yos soedarso Ambon, please double-check each other's luggage so that no one is left on the ship." Kep said, through a loudspeaker inside the ship.

"Sir Yan, can I borrow you for my parents' phone?" I ask Mr. Yan, expectantly.

"Oh yes, here's the phone." Replied Mr. Yan while giving his phone to me.

Tut ... Tut ... Tut ...

"Hello Thom, it's me El. I've been in the harbor you came to pick up ya. hpku dead completely, this I use hp people." I said to Thomi.

"Dear, you wait in the waiting room, yes, I'll pick you up." Thomi answered me.

"OKs. I hung up on him." I said to Thomi.

"Yes." Yeah." Answer Thomi briefly.

I ended the call and handed Mr. Yan my phone, thank you, for helping.

"This is Mr. HPnya, thank you very much sir." I said to Mr. Yan while handing over his phone.

"Yes El, you're the same." Answer Mr. Yan

Now that everyone had rushed to get off, since the ship had arrived at the port, I was still sitting, waiting for some people to get down first, so as not to cram in the door.

I got off the boat and followed many people to the waiting room, upon arrival I was in the waiting room I chose a seat, in the waiting room not many people. I put down my little bag and then went to the toilet, after which I went back to my seat to wait for Thomi.

It had been almost thirty minutes I waited with curiosity, until the curiosity was replaced with boredom because of a long wait, finally Thomi arrived. Seen from afar, a slim-bodied male figure walked towards me with a smile.

"El, sorry to wait so long, because I'm waiting for my sister on the bike." Thomi said to me while sitting down, and explained the delay.

"It's nothing." I answered with an angry face.

"Where's your suitcase?" thomi asked me while looking at my still irritated face.

"Eh, don't make your face look like it's not nice to people." Thomi said as she placed her hand on my captain.

"But I've been waiting for you too long Thom." I said with an annoyed face.

"Yes-yes, he said you want to eat grilled chicken, let's go home." Thomi said trying to persuade me.

"This is my bag." I answered while handing my small bag to Thomi.

"Well, did he say big suitcase?" ask thomi scoffing.

"Yes, that's what he said" I replied to Thomi.

"Let's walk." Thomi said while holding my hand.

Thomi and I walked out of the waiting room and into the parking lot to pick up the bike.

"El, you wait here and I'll take the bike." Thomi told me.

I just kept quiet watching him step up. Thomi arrived with a motorbike in front of me, and invited me home.

"Let's walk." Thomi said to me, then put the bike on.

"Say I miss you, you don't want to hug." Thomi

"Shame." Answer's short.

"Eh, what's the shame? we are going out. Same girlfriend still shy too?" ask Thomi to me while making fun of me.

"And we've only met, when the hell just play hug, I'm still embarrassed." I answered Thomi.

"As much as you are, the important thing is that you are happy." Thomi.
