When Love Passes Home
Part IX Magnolia Rayya Hassan does not know what time it is
Magnolia Rayya Hassan doesn't know hit
how much is this time. The rain is still falling, though not
as loud as before. In front of him were two
warm noodle soto bowl. Hot steam
billowed and he noticed
Malik is currently calling for a
waiter to ask for two cups of tea
sweet warm.
His eyes must have been wrong. In front of him at the moment
this must be Dimas or Jajang. Malik Galih's
Badness has never been like this, I thought
Magnolias. He replied almost
never, how could this time be a young man
it was sitting down and ordering a menu
same for him, the neighbor boy, the lapman
boxes that have the status of illegitimate children in
hassan's family home?
Magnolia held her nose closer
the bowl of soto noodles that she guessed was rations
the one Malik gave him. There's just
the two of them were currently, impossible Malik intentionally
buying for Dimas.
Huh, again he remembered Mamas. Is
his brother had eaten chicken noodles
purchase earlier? Because if you don't, you will
it's a pity. He has to sacrifice
three wipes to buy a serving of noodles
chicken with claw and three pentols
meatballs. Dimas gets special portions when
if he is, usually buy half portions.
Besides being frugal, he likes to mix things up
food with rice to fill up
he doesn't need dinner anymore.
Make yourself stingy, but if you buy Mamas, you,
not thinking about money.
Honey, it turns out Dimas was embarrassed to accept the results
his giving. It turned out to be Dimas's box-lap
the box that helped her all this time
connecting with life is useless
and embarrass him. Is it because of that
also, Malik had been reluctant to reprimand her all this time?
“Eat. Don't be overlooked doang.”
Magnolia did not hear Malik's words,
he didn't even notice the waiter
who came and put two glasses of tea
sweet warm in front of them. That girl
just looking at the bowl with lips
curving down imagine
his dear brother at this time might
not eating because of the shame of eating money
he sold for hours.
Just know, Malik pulled the right hand
Magnolia and direct it to
spoon in a bowl in front of the girl
that is until Magnolia stuttered.
“Eat. Take this medicine. Definitely dimas
sad to see you still have a fever like gini.”
Been again. Magnolia thought sad. Him
should suspect the young man in
in front of him at this moment. She is so
worrying Dimas to the Tigers
just take care of Magnolia which has not been
ever been on his radar. Besides Dimas,
Kezia is also one of the people who often he
watch the. Not infrequently, when he peeked
Malik is tutoring Kezia, the boy
the handsome looked at the Magnolia sister
with a very soft look, no
like him, especially like this.
Malik's eyebrows rose, his eyes squinting as if
about to stab Magnolia and send him
to hereafter.
Magnolia decided to nod
and not much to say. With that spoon
malik gave him that, he started
feeding soto noodles to the mouth. However
before that, he thanked me
for the generosity of Malik who never
he's guessing.
Malik as usual kept his ears
and Magnolia is too familiar
finally surrendered.
Inget, yeah, he's just doing this for the sake of
Elder brother. So stop GR and think that
he has feelings. He just had to. Point.
Magnolia and Malik spent a lot of time
about ten minutes spent eating
their night. When Malik wants to pay,
Magnolia had already reached for her jacket
and put a few pieces of money
the shabby grunts he's clumping about
in jacket pocket. It's a little hard to make money
the banknote was because Malik locked it
his jacket tightly. But Magnolia is not
out of reason, just pull the bottom of the jacket
Malik and he can put his hands in
his jacket pocket then took
multiple sheets as payment.
“This is my part.”
Malik only caught a glimpse of Magnolia's hand
the one that stuck out to him and him
pay attention to the thousand sheets
it was in silence before meandering and
walk towards the noodle soto handyman. Magnolias
then look at his own money
gulp down the saliva. What money will he
leave this too ugly so Malik doesn't
wanna accept? But, right, he's getting
the money was hard after
standing for half a day under the heat
the young man's thoughts and response were
flat clenches and he was left a
by enduring the feeling of shame
because he felt his money was not worth enough
as a means of payment.
All right, he'll pay for it himself, think
Magnolias. The girl got up and walked
towards the soto noodle cart. But, not yet
come closer, Malik is done
pay calling him, “Ngapain lo to
there's? Want wrap?”
Magnolia shook. He showed me money
thousands in his hands as a sign that he
also want to pay. But Malik said
if he paid for everything and
they just stay out from the bottom
tents. Malik even held an umbrella
Magnolia and hand it over so girl
its direction.
Without much more to say, Magnolia accepted
the umbrella gave Malik and them both
walk in silence towards the complex
housing where they live.
Can't say much. Can't
many ask. I don't know why I can
soin lo gebetan's. My brain might be stuck
when you choose lo, Magnolia laughs
he remembers in his heart all
the stupidity he made out of a crush
Malik. Right Dimas said, he should
learning is not a crush on a neighbor's child
never looked at him.
Five minutes walk, Malik though not
talk him. Because of that too, Magnolia
those who gave up, chose to look
the neighboring houses next door block
every day he passed on his way to
market place. Almost everyone who lives in
the complex is a civil service, including
papa who had served as an officer
landmass. Back then, when he was a kid, papa
often travel and will
back in a few days
bringing it from that place
he visited although Magnolia did not ask.
"Not to bring it. Yaya prefers
Papa's at home and doesn't need outside service."
He doesn't know that papa used to be
field officers and conduct surveys
various regions are his work,
unlike Aunt Laura, the birth mother
Malik works more inside
chamber.
"Yesia. Yaya.”
A voice sounded in Magnolia's ear
when he looked at his feet
now wearing Malik's big sandals.
He raised his head and found
Dimas ran to meet him
thrashed. The seventeen boy's body
the year was wet with rain and eyes
still blushing. As soon as he faced
with Magnolia still holding
umbrella and wear a jacket belonging to Malik
greatness, Dimas without hesitation embraced
his sister very tightly.
"Dear brother. I'm sorry. I was wrong, I
must punish. But don't run away from home.
Don't stay with me. I promised the same
Papa take care of you."
Magnolia tried to escape from
dimas's embrace now kissed the top
heads repeatedly. Tears of youth
handsome whose face is so similar to
his own face was pouring out profusely and he
rubbing his forehead and cheeks with
affectionately.
"Lo's still feverish, gini-tujan road.
All because I'm stupid."
"Lo what the fuck, anyway?" Magnolia push
dimas face to stay away from the cheeks and
her head. He knew his brother was worried, but,
Dimas does not need to be excessive in
front Malik.
"I bought the medicine.”
Malik showed me the current medicinal plastic
be in his grasp. That thing
makes Magnolia a little surprised. He's right
I forgot about that thing since it was finished
ate earlier. Malik's face looked sour
when showing off the medicine he bought for
Magnolia, to Dimas is proof that he
willing to do that for his best friend.
"Thank you a lot, Bro. If there is no, I
don't know if I can get through tonight or
nah.”
Magnolia is desperate to vomit. Not because
he did not like Dimas' words,
except to imagine his brother with
lovingly say thank you
love for the kindness of Malik, as if
the young man was created by God to always
helping him.
"Go home, yeah, Deck. Warm water bath. I am yang
cook. Abis is eating… "
"He ate it already." Malik cut.
Dimas' face seemed to be grateful
give back to Malik even then
Malik added, "but not abis."
"It's okay. What's important is Yaya
eat, go home. Tomorrow rest. Mammary
which will be sold in the lo.” dressing market
Dimas holds the shoulder of Magnolia. Her face
he looks very sorry and he will
do whatever it takes for her sister to come back.
Dimas doesn't even release the hand link
they were after the three finally walked
towards the house that is one block away
any more.
"He's so nice." Dimas smiled at
Magnolia still looking at the back
Malik walked ahead of him
himself. The compliments he heard were overflowing
from Dimas' mouth made his ears
buzzing.
"Diem, Mommy. Long time you have a crush on him really."
Magnolia shook her head. Headmen
getting sick from trying not to
thinking about how close Malik's relationship is
and Dimas to make something inside
his chest was wounded but not bleeding.
"What the hell, anyway, Dek?" Dimas tried
laugh, but Magnolia only
freeze and try to breathe
correctly when he realized the cold air
suddenly ambushed his body.
"Sir. Deck. Yay…"
Malik heard Dimas's scream
look and throw her umbrella, then
running fast because in the second
similarly, Dimas almost toppled over because
restraining the sudden body of Magnolia is not
be aware.
