The Story of My Time
Episode 45's
I'm just following, and I think that's why it feels comfortable
" Sleep I know you're tired of all the new happenings you've been through" she said gently as she rubbed my hair
" Pai can I hope "question me before I really fall asleep later
" Say "she said, but her eyes saw my face which was slightly blocked by my hair
" I want to hope for you and make you a backrest for me when I'm tired or happy" I said
" He'mh, of course and I hope it stays that way" he said
I did not ask any more, and chose to close my eyes ntah ripa'i also close my eyes or not
If I can I want ripa'i to be the last of my life, but all is not always in line because there is a fate that determines
Really at this age I just want to be happy as it should be, not to feel disappointed again in any form, I also hope I can continue my education
I want my journey not to be in vain, the science and knowledge that I have learned so far I want to make it a guarantee
Although I have to try harder I am okay, I am also quite self-conscious in my family condition which is just a science that I can make sure to be more advanced again, it's okay if you have to go to university with a scholarship it will be a pride for me, because it means not in vain the knowledge I have obtained so far
I want to know where my ability is to make it all happen, all my dreams are for my parents even if I can I also want to support my sisters' lives so much better with a better education
Until I find a point where I will feel satisfied or tired and give up, I hope the ripa'i will also always be beside me even though I know it is impossible because of the distance that separates, but just good communication and mutual trust is enough for me
How long have I been asleep until Ripa'i wakes me up
" Rinjani we have to go down" he said, patting me on the cheek slowly, maybe I'm pretty slumbering because last night I didn't rest well
" Mmmhhhh, have arrived yes "manyu while trying to open eyes that feel heavy
Ripa'i chuckling made me slightly suspicious, was there something on my face
" I'm sorry to wake you up, still so sleepy" she said, nodding
We got off the bus
" We get in the car again if we want to ride the motorcycle just "ask yanah
" Jek car is too far, we ride the motorcycle later if it is a bit close to where you guys "ripa'i speech makes me fully aware of my sleepiness
" Are you not going home to your sister's place "ask me
" Later after dropping you off "he said
Angkot came quite dense, so ripa'i did not sit he just stood by the door while occasionally looking at me
Me and Janah were sitting inside
The car is speeding pretty fast I'm worried about the ripa'i that's just at the door
One by one the passengers got off, and the angkot began to loose ripa'i was now sitting opposite each other with me not beside me, while my left right there yanah and other passengers might be the same age as us
Sometimes ripa'i smile when the angkot stops lowering the passengers because at that time the angkot will be brake suddenly and continue to repeat like that I have started to get upset
Ripa'i held my hand, I looked towards Yanah she was just smiling being towards my left she was just flat
Sometimes I catch the woman next to me staring at ripa'i but when ripa'i looks at her he turns his face away until ripa'i makes a sound
" The girl in front of me is my lover, ah no she's my future fiance" she said I just smiled I know ripa'i was just trying to stop the woman from stealing Padang again to her
I even beat him up
" Ah, she's not my husband-to-be, she likes to joke sorry "my words while holding back a laugh
While yanah already from earlier he laughed a little if he was not in the car maybe his laugh was off
Ripa'i smiled showing her teeth as she shook her head, maybe she didn't think I could jail either
While the woman was even look upset and moved to her seat, maybe it was close he would choose to go down
Until we got down ripa'i kept holding my hand, he didn't care much eyes saw, actually I was a bit uncomfortable
I let go of his grasp when I actually got down from the armature
" You, I'm sorry I can't take you to your house, if I'll be their future daughter-in-law who you brought from the city "canda ripa'i to yanah
" CK, no need to thank you anyways my father has picked up, tuh there "said yanah while pointing towards his father
The motorbike of yanah approached us
As soon as the motor had stopped in front of us, I greeted father yanah as well as ripa'i
" Who's Rinjani coming home ?" Ask mr. yanah who certainly already knows I even he believes his only child is following the PKL with me
" Rinjani ride ojek sir "answer me
" Himself, is it okay "he said again, maybe worried
" Rinjani with me om "ripa'i mediate us
" Om, just call the father better in the denger, you temen them too, "maybe the father of yanah is not comfortable with the name om
" Yes I am their friend too, "ripa'i replied politely
" Yes already so we first Jani and you "said father yanah who did not know the name ripa'i, I smiled
" Ripa'i sir" said yanah
" Yes Jani ka ripa'i I first yes, until met at school "said yanah while wearing a helmet
The motorbike driven by the father of yanah has gone to his place
" We take ojek "take me to ripa'i
" no, I've asked my friend to bring me my bike "he replied
I wonder when he called his friend
" Tah he said pause again "he replied while wailing
I saw a long bench made of bamboo on the raft, I just stuck it there
" Pai I got on a motorcycle "because I can't wait to go home to see my family
" A moment, soon he comes his people are already in the area he said "prevent Pai
Soon ripa'i's phone sounded probably from his friend
Pai picked up the call, shortly after the call ended came two guys on two bikes anyway
" Old very "flat pie to his friend
" I'm sorry I was looking for someone who wanted to join "the answer
" Hey, Rinjani must be "greet one of their friends
" He'mh "short of me, because I'm already upset
" I'm sorry for the old "said it again
I smiled, actually imposing
" What's wrong, anyways sorry it's troublesome, I was going to ride the motorcycle" I said, the man smiled at me
" Come on home "Pai mediates us while putting a helmet on my head
" I first" I said when I was on the bike ripa'i
" First" said ripa'i also to his friend maybe, the two men nodded and they got on the bike
Long time on the trip maybe an hour and a half from the taxi place to my house
" Ashallamuallaikum "greetings to the house people
Yes, at this time we have reached my house, I look for a moment in front of my house which is a little strewn with my brother's equipment
" Wa'allaikum sallam" replied the man inside the house as he ran outside
I'm sure it's my sister who is man, maybe Indri, I'm currently sitting while taking off my shoes ripa'i also sitting
" Detah "the loud voice of Iin
I closed my eyes to hear his loud voice, before long Fitri, cipher and others also came out unless you might not have come home yet
" Mom "my voice while shaking my mother's hand as well as ripa'i
" Just come home what's been since "ask mom
" New Mom, this just took off the shoes "my answer
" Fit get you a drink for your tth and her friend "mom's word to Fitri, who was told to slide straight away
I invite ripa'i in at the mother's order, mother held a mat in the middle of the house where the family usually gather if it is at home
I told Ripa'i to sit first while I was in the room to keep a bag containing important files of internship reports
After returning from the room I saw all the members including my brother were already there he was chatting with ripa'i as well as mother, this was the first time ripa'i chatted with mother
Seeing ripa'i chatting I chose to join my sisters
" Ka mana-by her "fitri chirps
My kids are waiting too
" Get me the big bag, brother "ask me
Password and the enthusiastic Fitri took the bag, really I was very happy to see this joy of theirs that I missed
Sandi and Fitri are back
" This tea "password gave me his bag
I split the small gifts one by one no one left behind all thanking, I approached my brother
" This is for Brother "I bought my brother an inexpensive but sincere watch hoping my brother would like it
" Sister also in the "candidanya section
Brother took his watch, while mother I do not know what to buy, so I buy clothes but his pleasure really makes me want to quickly be able to work
" Thank you" said my mother and brother
" He'mh, Jani take a bath first huh, Pai I take a shower first "my goodbye
After the bath I took ripa'i Untu to eat, and mother had prepared her food
" Full eating, sorry just the potluck" said my mother, smiling
" Mom tau tida, Rinjani really wanted to eat food at home when Jani was far away" I said, my tears just dripped, I really miss my mother so much that I was like any other teenager I might be crying and hugging my mother
I see my mother smiling
" Those times you eat a lot, there are your favorite kale vegetables" said the mother, I nodded
" So this is Rinjani's favorite vegetable "Pai mediates
" Yes " answered the mother briefly
" Then I went to my mother's room "thank my mother
I scooped rice onto a ripa'i plate, it was just on my plate but ripa'i asked me to spoon it too
" The vegetables are also dong, the time you want to spend all "
