TWILIGHT IN THE PINE FOREST

TWILIGHT IN THE PINE FOREST
HOMECOMING



The night is getting late. The sound of the night beast seemed to understand how agitated my heart was.


Yes, I have a heart tomorrow I have to go home.


Last afternoon I said goodbye to Bulik. It's even been washed away. Why is my heart sad like this? Feels hollow..


Something stuck in my mind...


The television still lights up.


It means Mas Ari hasn't come home yet. I wanted to see the ball, he said.


I actually still wish I could talk a lot with him.


But I still hold back. Don't let Bulik think I'm shameless.


**


Finally the sun appeared.. It feels warm I feel.I'm still in the room.


"Yu.. let's eat first.


" Yes for a moment" I replied while preparing a tote bag.


Kamip breakfast. Bulik gave me some money for the bus fare.


"Thank you. I even got sangu(defender) . "I laughed too. and Bulik also laughed.


"It's okay next time you play here. "


"Ready... ".. Yeah, I must be here again.. "


"But wait Come first, Yu. "the uncle who wants to go to the rice field shouted to me.


"Of course, it is not certain when I can come here again. "my mind is sad.


In my heart I looked for him.why until nine o'clock not once heard his voice.


Only the sound of a loud tape recorder was heard.


It's certain that there's a tap sound that means he's at home.


Could it be that she also felt uneasy like me..??


Duuhhh.


But I'm glad to imagine it.


"Well, are you dumb? " the sound of the Bulik makes me blush.


"No. wait for Iput. kok has not come. "I finally got the right answer.


He didn't seem suspicious of me.


"Yes. already be careful... Although Iput can only take you to Gedangan.. "


"Greetings to your mother too. "Bulik's message.


"Yes... Thank ye.. "


Bulik also took his shawl to hold a basket of rice and side dishes.


Not to miss her pride.


The child disappeared from my sight.


Mas Ari and Yudi somehow since when they were behind me.


"Where are you..?? " Tanya Mas Ari while looking at me.. Deg.. my heart is so ungodly.


"Go home. "I dare to look him in the eye.


"Return.. ? he said very lightly.


Hhmmm.How could you talk like that. Do I have to stay here?


" Delivered who? Yudi goes with nimbrung.


"Iput.. arrived at Gedangan.. "


"How long has not come.. " I'm starting to feel uncomfortable. Want soon Iput present.


Ari and Yudi sat down..


I don't know why Yudi's gaze this time is different to me.


Ari just kept quiet while looking at me.


I'm like a suspect in front of judges.


Aahhh Iput .. how long.


Yes.lah. however Iput is married.of course, there is much that he must finish before he dies. Why am I being so selfish??


The three of us sat down without a word coming out of our mouths.


Each one is busy with his own thoughts.


Soon a voice called my name...


"Are you ready, huh..?? he shouted from a distance while running small towards me..


" Yes already." I looked at her. I glanced at Mas Ari.. He also looked at me expressionlessly. I don't know what his heart sounds like. Our eyes meet.. I smiled faintly.he was silent without retaliating.


Aahh. It's important that I go home now.


See you next year.


"Yuukk.. mbak. we leave.Later to the bus road. "


I also stood up immediately..


Mas Ari and Yudi.


Do not forget I say goodbye to Mbah kakung and mbah Putri...


See you next year...


Sayonara...
