THE STONE THAT LOVES

THE STONE THAT LOVES
Misguided



"Eemmm, like eight years old" I replied guessing


It just so happens that the date and month of our birth are the same, only the year is different.


"That means I'm really old, Beel"


"Haha, is it. ko Mas has not married Mas?" I'm melting


"There was not the slightest thought there, but now Mas has been steady, but there are obstacles"


"What's the obstacle?"


"Calon Mas is still too young. Mas want him to succeed in pursuing his story first, so that when the time comes to get married, he is satisfied with what he has achieved without any regret and curiosity during his life" Abi explained


"How old is my lover?" Ask me to wonder


"About 19 years"


"Oooh, very young"


"Abeel said that once he reached his mind, would he accept Mas's invitation to marry, with a distant age difference?"


"Eemmm, if Mas and Mas's lovers have been convinced from the beginning why not?, age is not a reason to tie a promise to live on, right?" I answered like an adult


Suddenly Abi laughed so hard, as if the only one in the park was the two of us. The person sitting in the hall looked at the two of us. We may have been considered crazy by them.


"HAHAHAHAHA"


"Loh, are you laughing?" ask me confused


"It's funny, hearing the words of an adult come out of the mouth of a rich kid abeel" Abi replied as if he was hurting me


"Yes, it was his turn to answer and laugh" I grumbled


I remembered the last words Fatih said, during our meeting before she left for the city to continue her studies.


"Don't daydream, it's the ice netes" Abi's voice startled my daydream


"Mas, can I ask you a question"?


"What?"


"Is the feeling of love real?" ask me curious


To this day I still can't believe what Fatih said.


"Why indeed?"


"I just want to make sure" I replied


"certainly? same who?"


"Someone"


"Who's the guy?" her tanyak intimidates


"Peap kepo, just answer me" I said


"Mas must answer, but first tell me who the person is" he said with emphasis


"I said I won't know him either, because he's in school with me" I replied


"How far do you know each other?"


"Not too close, he's my class name is Fatih, he's handsome and Mas achiever, eat him as an idol in my school, now in college in X city" I explained


"Means how long have you been in a relationship, until now?" tanyanya sat facing me


"Our relationship was just a friend, just before he left for the city, he had time to express his heart. And I still can't believe it, eat it I nanya mas" I explained


"The man who was taking Abeel home from school on a motorcycle?" tanyakannya guessed


"When?"


"When I picked up Abeel, Abeel came home"


I try to remember it


"Ooooh, so right that time Mas want to pick me up not want to pull cash?, Mas look at me, but why Mas plate is the way forward?" just pissed


"Yes, abis want how else Abeelnya people have been driven home" he replied ketus


"But he's not the one, who knows I'm one class, his name is Aditya" I explained


"So there's two men that means it?"


"Come, what the hell is Mas nudu that no doubt"


"Whoever recuses, I ask"


"I'm the same Aditya and Ka Fatih have nothing to do, they are always annoying"


"Don't ignore them too much, just focus on learning. You are still young, what you say can change at any time"


Our conversation ended, I still felt dissatisfied with what the money abi said, as if I was still curious and wanted to find the answer.


After arriving at home I immediately went to the bathroom to clean myself, then followed by aksa and bude lia who were still in the store.


"Where is bude?" I'm looking at Aksa there's no shop


"Eeeh, come home from Abeel. Your sister was invited to walk with your uncle" replied Bude Lia


"Have you eaten the beel?, eat there first, bude have cooked your sister before leaving" said Bude Lia


"Yes bude, Abeel eat first yes"


I went back to Lia's bude house, because my stomach wasn't filled with rice. Abi was on the road had offered me to eat but I refused it on the grounds still full.


When I got to the kitchen, there was Abi there sitting at the dinner table maybe he was hungry too.


I took the rice and side dishes and then sat in front of her, but Abi suddenly stood up carrying her food and went to the living room without looking and saying a word to me.


I get confused and confused with his sometimes friendly attitude, sometimes it can also be flat like this.


"Is there a mistake I made" I asked in my heart


I continued eating, after I finished washing my plate, but at the same time Abi also finished eating and was about to wash the dishes.


"Let me be a mas all" I said as I reached for the plate that abi held


"No need to bother" he answered


"Aah no papa, just washing dishes is not a hassle" I reply with as friendly as possible


"I'VE ALREADY SAID, DON'T DO IT" he said in a loud tone as if yelling


Suddenly I was shocked, my whole body was shaking, my heart seemed to be pumping quickly. I shifted my body aside so as to give Abi a way to wash the dishes.


When he finished, Abi went straight into his room leaving me who was still standing stiff like a statue. As soon as the water fell on the eyes, it felt so tight, my chest seemed to be hit hard, forcing the stalling of the falling water endlessly.


Slowly I went to my room, sitting on the edge of the bed trying to calm my heart that was very painful.


This morning we were fine, even walking together, jokingly spending time talking.


I was confused by the circumstances, it feels like I want to quickly leave the house bude Lia.


\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*


I didn't feel like I was fast asleep when I woke up at 09:30 p.m. I went out of the room looking for Aksa, I didn't get it.


"Where's Aksa?" I started to get worried


I headed to Lia's bude room, to ask Aksa. It turned out that Bude Lia was already asleep and Aksa was there.


"Thank God" I said with relief


I headed to the kitchen to get some water, I looked towards the kitchen, still bright with the lights still on. And it turns out that there was Abi there sitting dreamy by holding a glass in his hand.


I started to get scared, still remembering what happened this afternoon. I paused my intention to go into the kitchen and go back to my room.


As I began to sneak toward the door of the room, Abi called out to me


"Abeel?"


I was shocked and immediately opened the room door and locked it, at that time I was really afraid of making it. It was as if Abi had turned into a monster all of a sudden.


"Took, took, took, Beel open the door" Abi said


I started to sweat cold, like I felt threatened because there were criminals lurking


"Tok, tok, took, Beel, can we talk for a second" he asked in a soft voice


I began to dare to open the door of the room with my hands still trembling, sweat seemed to endlessly wet my entire body so as to penetrate the cracks of the clothes I was wearing.


As if I was soaked in sweat, I did not dare to look at him. I'm still hiding behind a slightly open door.


Abi went straight into the room and suddenly hugged me while saying


"Sorry Mas ya Beel, mas do not mean snapping Abeel, Mas just carried away a bad mood"


"Don't be afraid, Mas promised it wouldn't be like that again, Mas will try to change it as gently as possible" he continued


Abi still hugged me tightly and rubbed my already wet hair with sweat


My fear seemed to disappear all of a sudden, I could not believe what Abi said just now, so tender even softer than before.


Abi took me to sit in front of the TV, he started taking a novel book that he really liked and gave it to me.


"It's my favorite novel, you have to try to read it, it's very good"


"Ult used to be like you, not understanding about a feeling, never even paying attention to it, but ever since I met someone who I thought was very different and special, he was very different, I'm starting to believe in the contents of this book" he explained with a little caution


"Mass?" much


"Emmgh, why?"
