WHEN GUS FELL IN LOVE
For you
Every meeting there must be a farewell, but I'm going to go back. I'm sorry gus, I didn't mean to trick you. It's just that I'm not ready to marry you for now. After I go to Mbah Kina's house, I will definitely come back for you. Give me a month for that. (Mbah is an eyang call for the Javanese). I didn't expect my destiny to be you, just because things might be beyond human reason. Ahh, it all feels dead-end. What should I tell Danang later? it's been 2 years and there's been no news. After that last meeting...
"Na, I will continue my education in Singapore. I hope you wait patiently for me" Danang said, her eyeballs glazed over while hugging Nilna.
"You're evil, have you hikss hikss.... Why is this suddenly? you want to leave me?" Nilna wept bitterly at Danang's arms.
"It's for our good, dear Nilna, I'll definitely come back if it's successful. You wait for me, huh?" Danang rubbed Nilna's head gently
"What if I miss you? Hiks hikss" Nilna cried as she would, for she was struck quite hard at hearing that.
"Later to call, this is my address there, huh Na? take good care of yourself. Wait till I get home" Danang gave me a small piece of paper.
Nilna let go of his embrace
"You be careful there, watch your eyes. Take care of your heart" Nilna said, pointing to Danang's heart.
"Yes, baby.I'll be going to the airport later in the afternoon. I go first Na" Before going Danang kissed Nilna's forehead
"I'm taking ya?" Pinta Nilna, with her own face.
"Ga needs to baby, I'll call if I arrive. You must rest, pray'in I always ya"
"Definitely" Nilna drove Danang to his yard, saw Danang until he left no trace.
Why not from the first Nang, know that I did not choose a cottage. If only the choice of mamah today, I would definitely want to continue studying abroad so that I can be with you.

"Na, Nilnaa? The na? Nilnaaaaa woyyy" Shouted Khaira in Nilna's ear
"Ehh, Astaghfirullah.. Why are you Ra? ngaget-ngagetin only" said Nilna
"Part of you, called not horrified. I'm afraid even you tambet Na wkwk" said Khaira mocked his best friend
"Yes, I'm just thinking..." For a moment Nilna was silent
"What thoughts? A traveling salesman ha? wkwk-s"
"No, Mind mbak Khaira who often sell herbal medicine you know. Koq did not look out of the morning, once it appeared even make the hangers hahaha..." Nilna avenged Khaira
"Honey alone, pretty gini in the case of herbal medicine basket"
"Ehh ra, I want to ask you..." Nilna Speaks
"Yes, how's Na?"
Khaira listens to all of Nilna's stories, from A to Z. While digesting what he heard and what his best friend told him, at that time he thought about how the solution to the problems his best friend is facing right now.
"OK, you're now more sure which one is Na? Danang2 also has no news. Have you called Danang?" Khaira interrogates Nilna
"Udah, but the number wasn't active a year ago" Nilna said
"That one year he didn't tell you Na? Are you still in love with Danang?" Ask Khaira
"No news at all, I don't know how I feel right now. I want to follow Danang to Singapore, I used to be given the address" said Nilna looking for paper given Danang
"Sorry Na, I think you live in Danang. One year is not a moment... If he really cares about you, he must call you Na, at least not give you news. I think Gus Zaki is the right person for you Na, you should not waste gus Zaki. In fact, your lover just gave a promise? the new Gus Zaki you know gives you certainty. Try to think Na?"
It is also true what Khaira said, I must calm my mind in the house of Mbah Kina (Batin Nilna)
Nilna put some of her clothes in her suitcase.
"You really want to go to Singapore for her?" ask Khaira
"I want to go home Mbah Kina, I need the peace of Ra" Nilna said
"Emange you've got the same permission? gus ZakiðŸ¤"
"It's ra, but same gus Zaki I said he wanted to continue S2 to Cairo wkwk" said Nilna held back her laughter
"How will his expression be?" Ask Khaira
"His expression was as sad as it was, I didn't dare look him in the eye. Later it will be found out if I cheat he haha" replied Nilna
"The torment must be withheld by Na hehe" Khaira convinces Nilna of the decision she will make
Nilna's pick-up driver had arrived in front of the pesantren gate, he put all the items that would be brought into the car. Assisted by Khaira and Pak Driver, behind the gate there was also someone who was watching Nilna.
"Khaira I said yes" Nilna hugged her best friend
"Yes Na, be careful on the road. Cepet balik pesantren... Inget, gus Zaki is waiting for you wkwk"
"What sihh you ra, so clear. I'm going yes, Assalamualaikum"
"Wa'alaikumsalam Warrahmatullahi Westarakatuh"
Nilna entered the car, then closed the door. He was still thinking about what Khaira had said. The journey to Mbah Kina house is quite long, it takes approximately 3 hours. Mbah Kina House is located in Magelang, precisely in Ngadiharjo Village Borobudur District. The atmosphere there is very comfortable, beautiful, and calm for the souls of the restless. Mbah Kina was very concerned for Nilna, since childhood he was in the care of Mbah Kina when his parents were busy working outside the city. And a man who understands the character of Nilna. Two hours have passed, now it has felt the cold around there. Nilna opened the car glass, looking at the view of the hill lined up neatly.
