Waiting End
episode 4 #INSTEAD
Tonight I slept alone because Olif went home to his parents. As usual after the Isya prayer I reopen my notebook I see if there are any assignments from the lecturer that I have not done. Suddenly I remembered that I had to contact my mother to ask for her approval to move out. After all, those who will be responsible for paying my boarding money. It is their pleasure that I seek.
I'll take the phone and I'll call mom,
"Assalamu 'alaikum ma'am, what else? If If Ifa wants to call, what interrupts Mom's time? "
"Wa'alaikum salam nduk cah ayu, ora disturb ana what? " (wa'alaikum salam son, ga ganggu what is it?) you hear a voice saying who might ask?
"Niki bu bade matur, kula kadose starting tomorrow ajeng nyuwun move kost, amargi Olif njih move ma'am, dados kula piyambak sak niki" (this is ma'am to say, if starting tomorrow I want to ask permission to move boarding, because Olif also moved so I am now at my own boarding house) I replied explaining my intention and purpose in calling.
"Oh lha kok ndadak to nduk?" (is it sudden to my son?) ask mom
"Njih Bu, when noon sampun nyobi pados kost hinggal, thank God sampun angsal" (Yes, this afternoon have tried to find a new boarding house, thank God it has been able) I replied
"Yo wis sing important your crew comfortable tour yo akih koncone" (Yes it's important you feel comfortable and many friends) approval from Mother finally I can also.
"Ngoten riyin nggih Bu, mugi mugi Ibu saha Mr healthy njih" (So long ago ma'am, may I be the same Mr. healthy always), "assalamualaukum " I hung up the phone after I heard my beloved mother's greeting
"Wa'alaikum salam"
For a moment I dwell in my heart I always pray that my mother's father is always in the protection of Allah SWT. And bestowed with sufficient fortune and blessings.
I see the clock on my phone still showing at half-nine p.m. Because I still hear the chatter between Bulik Paddy and Mbah Darmo then I was able to leave the room to ask permission to say goodbye to them.
"The Sare Mbah slope? " i say hello to the greeting who was sitting not far from the bulik Paddy in front of the furnace
"Durung mbak, lha iki stuffed ana sithik rempeyek sing durung in the fry" (Not yet mbak, lha there is still a little rempeyek that has not been fried) replied Mbah Darmo
"Sepi yo mbak? Olif ra ana's mother" he continued
"hehe nggih mbah, but it will wonten panjenenengan kaliyan bulik dados boten very quiet." (hehe ya mbah, but there will be Mbah sama Bulik so ga too quiet) I replied with a smile.
"Yo wis kenennek durung nfancani sewah karo bulik fried peyek" (yes already if not here accompany cempeyek and fried bulik rempeyek) bulik Paddy chiming.
"what is it like ifa nok gone seimbah? " (what ifa ga begah mbak in the sewage house?) bulik asked, while Darmo just kept quiet while watching me
"Boten ngaten bulik, kula betah but menawi piyambak will be deserted dados ajeng plan to move supados wonten rencang matur, kaliyan mlampah school wonten rencange" (Not so bulik, I feel at home here, kaliyan mlampah school wonten rencange, only if there are no friends will be lonely no friends talk to friends going to school) explained me to bulik Paddy and Mbah Darmo.
"Oh ngono?, yo sak kersa sampeyan mbak bulik ora iso by the way, but sing important nok ngendi wae sliramu mangon tetep ati yo mbak" (Oh that, it's up to you mvak, bulik can not say anything else, but the important thing is wherever you are still hearty yes mbak) message from bulik Pammi and I nodded as a sign of agreement.
"When did meh panggange mbak? " (when do you want the transfer?) ask her again
"In shaa Allah menawi benjang boten solid lecture hours dalem bade beta goods kula bulik goods" (In syaa Allah if tomorrow is not crowded lecture schedule I want to bring my goods)
"Nyuwun pangapunten menawi dalem asring bandel boten nurut kaliyan panjenengan, rarely help solbu kaliyan bulik, matur suwun sanget kawula sampun wonten mriki dipun rumati kanthi kanthi bulik saha sumba"
(I'm sorry if during this time I often mess with the same bulik and sober, rarely help work, rarely help, and thank you for accepting me here and treating me so lovingly) without feeling like my eyes are glassy.
"Yo podo podo yo mbak sobuah karo bulik jaluk ngapura durung iso menehi karo maem sing decent call" replied bulik while holding tears that almost spilled because of haru. (Yes the same yes mbak sumbu equally sorry bulik also can not give a place and decent food)
While holding back the urge to not be heard by others, I resigned to retreat into the room. Honestly, I can't bear to see their sincerity in me. But how else is life a choice. The important thing is that my move is not because there is a conflict with them. And I promise that even if I don't live here anymore, I'll see them if I get a chance.
Before my eyes closed I tried to complete what was my duty, both campus and other tasks.
When we talked the three of me sembah and bulik, om Tries does not look like his nose. I don't know if he's in the room or out, because I don't see the green motorbike that is usually on the front porch. All I know is that motorbike is the only vehicle facility that this family has.
Ah, it's tomorrow morning if I meet her saying goodbye to her Tries. Slowly my eyes looked around looking at the whole room I was about to leave. The sky of the room that has turned brownish white, with a little decoration of the spider web in the corner of the room, whitewashed walls that are also worn, seems long unpainted. A small wardrobe in the corner of the room, next to the table of Dutch wood material that has also been lost its lamps.
In my heart I am always grateful for the simplicity of this family still being able to spread its goodness by accommodating me to make room for me and Olif to rest the body, though bulik and sewah so forced to sleep one room because one room is used by me and Olif. Providing food for us when we are tired of doing all day activities on campus, even with a menu that is not luxurious.
"Yes Robb, may You provide for them and Thou bestow blessings upon them and make this simple family a happy family, Thou shalt also bestow happiness upon them, O God" my sincere prayer in my heart.
Even the night moved I tried to close my eyes so that tomorrow morning I could greet with cheerfulness and freshness of the body because of adequate rest. I hope that Sampah and Bulik are not disappointed because my decision will move from here.
