THREE MEN FROM THE VILLAGE

TPDD 95 (Iqbal)

The night is getting late. Although the clock on the wall just showed ten o'clock at night, but somehow the atmosphere was so lonely. Especially at Mr. Martin's. After dinner, the house immediately looked like an uninhabited house. Martin and Amanda are tired of their jobs. Aleta and Belinda reportedly joined Mamih to help at his restaurant today. So it is likely that tonight they are also sleeping because they are tired. Ma'am Inah and the other driver were in their own room and they were probably asleep too. The only ones whose eyes were still literate in the house were Iqbal and Karin in the same room.

Iqbal eyes focus on the phone screen. His finger was busy replying to the incoming message because his number had been inactive for a long time. Once the phone number is active, incoming messages arrive quite a lot. While behind him Karin still faithfully accompanied Iqbal. Karin's hand is still faithful in the Iqbal color, playing the Iqbal weapon that began to tighten. Because of the long wait for Iqbal to react, Karin felt a little careless.

"What the hell is that? Long time," whined Karin from behind.

"Again bales incoming messages, Non. Nih who chat a lot," pointed Iqbal and Karin also glanced at the screen of the new phone Iqbal. His face was pouting but Iqbal was less sensitive.

"Is it from a girl?" ask Karin.

"There, my brother, nih," replied Iqbal.

"Are you a girl?" and Iqbal.

"Not another girl?" ask Karin curiously.

"Nothing, tuh!" point to iqbal and he's honest. There were no messages from women.

After that, Iqbal returned to chat. Especially with his two best friends who have not sent messages for a long time. Karin could only snort bitterly because she felt neglected.

The longer, Karin felt more and more uncomfortable being there. He who deliberately came to Iqbal's room wanted to share his taste and fulfill Iqbal's wishes, but his arrival was not considered. Iqbal was too engrossed in chat with his friend and ignored the whereabouts of Selin who had been waiting for him.

Karin was also disappointed because she was ignored for too long. Finally he took off his arms and wanted to leave immediately because he felt his presence was currently not needed by Iqbal.

"I'm just leaving, here I'm not needed," said Karin arrived. He also immediately moved.

Iqbal. He immediately put down his phone and followed up to prevent Karin from leaving.

"Where are you going?" Iqbal asked while blocking Karin's hand.

"Go back to the room" Karin replied without looking over.

"No, Bal. I know I'm not needed tonight, just mending me back to the room," replied Karin trying to take off Iqbal's hand.

"Not so, I just ... "

"You go on and play with her phone, I want to sleep," Karin replied cutting off Iqbal's words while releasing her hand. After the hand fell off, Karin immediately left disappointed.

Iqbal stared at Karin's departure with an uneasy feeling. He sat back down and rubbed his face in frustration. But a while later he thought that Karin was the most angry for only a moment and that tomorrow would be better. His smile was outstanding and finally Iqbal decided to continue sending his message.

Time passed by so quickly and the day has changed again. As usual, in the morning with the spirit of Iqbal doing his homework to help Mbak Inah. Until it doesn't feel like time is running fast and the job is done.

At first everything seemed fine, Mr. Martin, his wife and two children seemed to be enjoying their breakfast. Only Karin is invisible. At the end of this, Karin often eats alone and avoids gathering with her family.

Until time passed, Iqbal was surprised because it was almost noon Karin did not come out of the room.

As Iqbal was sitting with the housekeeper at the guard post, Iqbal was told Mbak Inah was told to go inside he said Mr Martij called. Iqbal immediately turned to face Mr. Martin.

"What's up, sir? He said the Master called me?" Iqbal asked as soon as he arrived in front of Mr. Martin who looked confused under the stairs.

"Do you have Karin's phone number? The number is not active now?" Iqbal was stunned listening to Mr. Martin's question.

"No, Sir. I don't even have a single Non Karin phone number" Iqbal replied with a questionable feeling.

"Nothing yesterday, Bal. He ran away from home."

"What!"
