The Story of My Time
Episode 75's
Ripa'i and I were on our way home, back to the town where we live now.
Every now and then we throw jokes at each other to fill the boredom on the way, stopping at a minimarket to buy a drink because he said ripa'i he forgot to keep drinking water when we were leaving earlier.
Every now and then I look at my phone because the notification does not stop the notification appears from the office, and so forth, there is also a message notification from an unnamed number who knows.
# Have you arrived ?# message from pitri
# is still on the way, isn't it at home ?# my reply
# he'mh being outside # fitri
# India # Reply
# he said at home #fitri
# alone ?" My reply
# he'mh, soon Fitri come home now there is still class, is it still far away ?" Fitr
# no longer wait until, yes have met at home #replyku, no more reply from Fitri
I remembered Asiah and I asked Ripa'i what was the last news he got from his friend Gibran.
" Pai did you get word from your friend about Asiah ?" I asked ripa'i to glance at me
" He'mh, Gibran told me that Asiah's news is much better, if tomorrow's check shows good results then Asiah can go home, that's how he told me "the answer, he said,I'm glad to hear what Ripa'i just said.
" I'm proud of you" he said, looking over
" For "short I ask, because I don't think there's anything I can be proud of because compared to yes I'm nothing.
" Your heart, behind all your attitude like this you have a good heart, even Tampa look at who you help anyone like the events in town x, Deni helps the girl you don't think of yourself "he explained while continuing to focus on the wheel.
" I'm not that good as ripa'i "I replied
" I can't even help everyone who needs my help" I continued, recalling how I'd have been trying to find out about me, if only I could help him.
" You're only human, you don't have the ability to know anyone who needs your help "softly say, I just keep quiet and don't reply.

Before long we reached my place, my youngest brother opened the door and he immediately hugged me he said he missed me.
I entered the ripa'i behind us I turned and told him to sit down, to step my foot into the kitchen to make a coffee ripa'i, after which sit back and listen to Indri's story,occasionally me and ripa'i smile to hear Indri's story even ripa'i chimed, Indri say goodbye to the room he said he has not bathed now only me and ripa'i.
" Do not want to rest" said ripa'i
" I'm on a break "I answered
" I mean rest in your room to be more comfortable" he said again I just kept quiet
" I'm just afraid you're exhausted because our journey is far enough" he continued, I turned my head
" I'm fine, if there's a promise go "flat me
" You threw me out "the candle
" I still want to be with you, I always want to be with you, if you're ready to wear it "softly while looking at me, I'm looking at it like this, I can't bear to see it like this, I nodded as soon as the sweet smile appeared on that handsome face, he smiled part and I also smiled.
Ripa'i pinned the ring she had always kept, on her clothes the ring and kissed my hand.
" But Pai you know all I want has not been achieved completely, there are many more that I want to finish "weakly said, ripa'i held my head and said
" We do it all together so it'll feel lighter, I promise Takan gets in the way of all you want as long as it's still true "
" But if you're misguided, then I have to get in your way, and if you feel like everything's over then we're left "he continued, I'm a little confused by what we said
" We "say I repeat
" He'mh, we and all dreams are like family, aren't we ?" He asked for approval, and I nodded.
Whether this decision is right or one is only one for sure, when I and Ripa'i think about our happiness, I am sure everything will be fine if lived with confidence.
" Well in two weeks I'll propose to you officially, ask you father and mother are you ready ?" Ask me to nod
It was a very tiring journey so far I struggled to maintain everything including myself, I do not know what I will live after this, after my status changed later, I do not know what I will live after this, I can only hope everything will stay the same, I can keep working and protect my sister, giving both my parents happiness.
" Ripa'i I'm building a confexi house in the village" said ripa'i looking at me
" Then "he said it
" I want this to be an asset to both of my parents" I explained
" What is it "he said, smiling mocking
" He'mh "short as I smile
" Whatever you have I wish it was for mom and dad, because after being with me you only have what I have" he said, I looked at him in how many sacrifices ripa'i had made all this time making me think there was something better than him, than everything he did for me.
" Please promise me one thing "he said it made me see it flat
" What "
" Whatever happens to me later, and whatever you know about me later, you will remain beside me with me he'mh "there is a little sadness implied in his face when saying that
" He'mh "short me while nodding slowly and getting a smile from ripa'i.
No longer discussing the matter we discussed the moment where we met, occasionally I mocked ripa'i and he just smiled, in the middle of our jokes Fitri entered to say hello and smile warmly at us.
Ripa'i returned the smile, not long after Fitri Julian entered it turned out he was the one who delivered my sister.
" Hey, how are you ?" Ask when I see me
" Good news "short
" And you lord "he turns on ripa'i
" Good "short ripa'i
Ripa'i chatted with my sister Fitri from talking about how her school was up to her romance, I caught a moody reaction on Fitri's face when ripa'i asked that, I turned to Julian could it be that my sister was heartbroken.
" July how with you, has there been a girl who fills your heart "asked me to make sure
" There, it's just that I don't know if he likes me or doesn't "he replied as he stared at my sister making me smile
" Have you tried to say it ?" Ask me again
" Not yet, I dare not fear ending up like I used to "he replied I fell silent
" It doesn't need to be like that, really seeing you happy I'm fine" he continued
