The Toga Rahayu

The Toga Rahayu
56



The end of the year has come, I got a leave of ten working days off, understand for one year of work I never take my cut rations other than mandatory holidays on Sundays. Intentionally, I never took leave so that I could occupy myself and kill all the feelings that somehow did not die even though I was trying desperately.


“Assalamualaikum nduk are you year-end no holidays?”.Ask the mother who was there.


“Waalaikumsalam Yes bu Rahayu can leave ten days”. My answer is not too excited for mom.


“Come home son mom kangen”.


“Iya bu Rahayu home insyaallah”.


“Don't forget to bring mommy's daughter-in-law too ya nak”.


Slalu's mother said that if I miss me and told me to go home even though almost every day we were preaching by air but for mother it would be different when I could meet her firstborn in person. In addition, my mother forced me to go home because I wanted to get acquainted with Reno mas.


Slalu's mother and father reminded me that if I was old, it was time to have a family.Mothers were afraid that “goddess” would be pinned to me by the neighbors around the house. I breathed a heavy sigh if I sucked up the wejangan. Even though the new age also stepped on twenty-seven young, for some reason if in my place the age of twenty-seven felt the age of sixty.

In the morning after packing some clothes and bringing some souvenirs for my sisters, I was ready to go home. Actually, the distance between my house and work is not too far for about two hours. But somehow if you go home it feels like going to go to combat with a lot of tools and souvenirs for the people of the house.


Tin..Tin...Tin


The sound of a familiar car horn in my ear, whose car if not my girlfriend Reno. Girlfriend who is just status I never admit to kasian.


“Which is where you going? How to bring so many things?”. Mas Reno looked surprised to see some of my luggage that was indeed as beautiful as it was.


Understand that if you are walking out or just passing the road there is something strange or interesting that I will usually buy it for my brothers. Because at home they rarely find this kind of thing.


For example, my sister who first really likes the decor-decor room either room or other things, as well, so when passing through the accessories store I will stop and buy some wallpaper embossed for him to be creative because in my house it will be difficult to find a seller of embossed wallpaper.


When I come home from work through the bakery, I will buy my sisters a crocodile-shaped and large bread. Of course they will be happy to skali because this kind of thing in my place is also rare to find. Not imaginary if my luggage will be a lot when going home.


“I want to go home mas”. I answered Reno.


“You go home why not say - dear, you want to go home by motorbike with luggage like this much?”. Asked Reno with a bit of surprise.


“Iya mas”, I replied with only a horse's grin.


“How can you go home with a motorbike with this much stuff?”. Mas Reno still seemed confused to imagine it.


“Can be mas”.


This is already an ordinary thing that I can do, because every time I go home I will also bring this much stuff. So please imagine yes.


This big cardboard I will tie with raffia and put behind the seat, this big bag I will put in front because I use a motor matic so there will be no trouble in carrying it. While the backpack containing my clothes I will wear on the back while the small bag I will sling in front.


“Where do I want to see how”. Said Reno.


I quickly used all the attributes and arranged the items I would take home.


“Aready”. I said that I was getting ready to go home and bring all my luggage.


“I go home first yes mas assalamualaikum”. I turned on my bike and prepared to go home. Actually there is the happiest thing this morning mas Reno does not want to come with it alone is enough to make my heart relieved.


“Eh want to go home it's good, I've been all the way here”. Mas Reno pulled the back of my bike.


The new duh can also run away and dodge.


“I drive her home, I'm coming along isn't your mom and dad eager to meet his ex”.


“No need mas not now I am not ready, besides Reno also busy my home far once”. My answer is to try to avoid.


“No I'm not busy at all anyways it's a holiday too, I want to meet your parents, I want to say if I'm serious about not messing with you”. Mas Reno looked warmly smiling as usual.


“Which part of my heart I saw my children's future mothers riding motorcycles with this much stuff brang”. Mas Reno quickly dropped off all my belongings and moved them to his car.


“But later if I was escorted by car will be difficult when returning here, need to ride the motor to get to the bus” stop. I still try to subtly reject it.


“Let me pick you up again if you want to go home, I promised your parents to take care of you”.


That's the reason you are, I've grown up I'm used to doing all my own work and activities without the help of others.


Because there was no reason to avoid Reno, I finally followed his will. I am now going to my hometown to meet my mother and father. Oh God I don't know what will happen after this, I could be married to a mother and father who want to get married immediately.


Along the way my face snorted in annoyance while Reno smiled roaringly full of victory.


“Darling do you mind me taking you home?”. asked Reno who saw me with a smile maybe because I just kept quiet from earlier he felt a little bad.


“Ngot mas”. I answered flatly objected also no longer useful this has been half the journey to home.


Throughout the trip there was no chatter which meant only the sound of music that continued to linger along our journey.


“I suntan but don't remind you”.


“I rainbow don't give your life color”.


“I the moon won't light up your night”.


“I'm the missing star in the dark swallow”.


“As a lover who is not considered”


“I can only try to give up”


“hold every temper “


“As a lover who is not considered”


“I can only try to survive”


“I'm sure you'll change”.
