THE SOUL OF MAYRA

47 (Curhat)

"Non't you, May?"

"Yes, good."

"You're saying that I'm here? Yeah .. You know that wasn't so."

"Aren't you the one who made it?"

Fara cengenesan's. Ah, everything is done, what can it be? The two girls were in a cafe around Simpang Lima. Not Sunday night, but still crowded. Moreover, the cafe they both visited was located near the shopping center—mall.

If you think Mayra's here because of her will, it's a big mistake. Because, Mayra was in the room and studying. However, what winds make Fara after dinner persuaded him to be accompanied to a cafe. Inevitably Mayra is not, do not have Fara whining constantly.

The two girls there were busy with their respective activities, so it was only natural to be quiet. Yes, Mayra is seriously reading a teenfic-religious novel. And, Fara is engrossed in scrolling her biased photos on Instagram.

"Ra ... You in Singapore used to go out at night, huh?"

Mayra's sudden question makes Fara turn off her phone. He was interested in the topic of Mayra's conversation. Honestly, since yesterday he wanted to tell me about his life in Singapore to Mayra. However, unfortunately he was too afraid if it was disturbing.

Fara nodded as she siphoned off her signature drink choco taro. "You'll never come out, will you, May?!"

"It's true, but the most if you insist or go shopping mbak cottage," said Mayra. "But more in the pesantren, anyway."

Fara nodded. He can imagine how the life of Mayra in the pesantren.

"May, can you tell me?"

Mayra smile. "Why ask permission? Tell me as you please, God willing I'm horrified."

Fara was interested in smiling. He began to reminisce about his life in the developed neighboring country.

"My days are boring, May. There is no fun" said Fara. She smiled bitterly remembering him. "You could say I don't have parents know, May! They exist but never exist."

"Don't talk like that, Ra. Maybe the aunt is busy."

Fara nodded, right Mayra said. "Yes, but luckily there is Rey who often comes to my apartment. Even though he's just making me sick, but with Rey I'm not lonely." Fara smiled bitterly. Ah, he misses the cranky and annoying Reynar.

"You mean Reynar?"

Fara nodded back. He stirred his drink with a straw.

"In addition to Reynar, I also often video call my friends in Japan. The three of them are my SD friends. But the fate of his cake deliberately misahin us at Junior High."

"You want to destroy destiny, Ra?" Mayra frowned. "Every person present in our lives has their own role. Some are fixed, some are just passing by."

Fara fell silent. Looks like he was digesting Mayra's speech just now. Seconds later, he grabbed one of Mayra's hands.

"Thank you, yeah, May wants to hear my story." Fara smiled with teary eyes. "Now do you know my life in Singapore?"

Mayra nodded.

"Don't be sad anymore, I'm beside you. If you want a story, a story."

"Yes, May. Thanks again, yeah."

Mayra nodded with her smile. "Don't thank you mulu. I should be the one who thanks you for the treat."

Fara releases Mayra's hand. "Ikhhh .. Why did I pay? Pay yourself to know!" taste Fara.

"Lho, you, yes, who brought me here to whine like a child," elak Mayra chuckled.

"I know, really!"

The two girls smiled back. Fara said; "It turns out you're not as happy as I thought, May. You turned out to be a nyebelin."

"Nyesel's the story?"

Fara shook her head while chuckling. "Who is lataaang? No May, I'm glad I have you in my life."

"Yep-yes, Ra. I believe."

They both drank in front of him. From earlier chatting it feels like their throat is dry, ask for water slides.

"May .. You don't comment on my appearance? In fact, the first time I came here it was grandma coming this-it, you know." Fara frowned.

Has Mayra not noticed him all this time? Ah, not the time?

Mayra looked down with her smile. Then, he looked back. Looking at Fara with a warm smile.

"That's your right to wear what you want, Ra."

Fara really gawked at Mayra's answer. She suddenly clumsily looked at Mayra right in the eye.

"Well, you're also the one who's going to suffer the consequences? I have no right to forbid you. But .. I'm obliged to remind."

Fara looked at the lethargic Mayra. "What do I need to do, May?"

"It's better to change your appearance to a more closed one." Mayra commented a smile. "If it can't change completely, slow down. Starting with wearing long clothes every time out for example."

"But, May ..my prayers are also not true, please again," said Fara honestly.

"immediately fix. If you need help, God willing I'm ready to help."

Fara's eyes glazed over. I listened to Mayra's words. All this time Mayra noticed her appearance, but she chose silence.

"I'm still comfortable with me now, May." Fara bowed. "I don't want to go now."

"I pray that you will soon emigrate. May God still extend our lives to better ourselves."

Fara looked at Mayra who was also looking at her. The eyes of the black haired girl were watery. In fact, her tears almost spilled.

"Are you disappointed with me, May?" said grudgingly.

Mayra smiled back, then shook her head. "Make what? I have no right to force you to turn into me, Ra."

"I support you whatever it is as long as it's good" Mayra continued.

Fara's tears were completely dripping. Crackling and keep dripping.

"Goodoo, May."
