TRUTH #2 (PART 1)



I was always very


feeling bored if I just stay in the office, I prefer if I have to go down


more than sitting in a room like this. Room filled with documents


which hurt my eyes, but the Goddess once said to me, The king does not


can just leave the palace.


            Than I get tired of mending I just call the Goddess


in my room, to accompany me to tell a story, I called him using the phone


the office and told him to come in my room.


“What's up?” tannya


“Cua could die because


bored in this room,” I said.


“Free, cave ga will allow


you make spaciousness Gy.”


“Lagian ntar lu black


get hot if the spaciousness, you want tuh ilfil girl see your skin if item.”


“I'm not discussing


him,” I answered flat


“What's up, fight again


lu?”


            I just kept quiet, I wasn't interested in zulfa


this time, I better discuss the matter of father inviting me to meet him at noon


later.


“Bokap nelfon cave overnight,”


I said slowly.


“Ha, continues?” tannya


curious.


“He met ntar


noon.”


“Lu want to.”


            I just kept quiet, didn't answer


“Gy, gua tau you don't like


same Bokap lu, but he will keep your Bokap as well,” he continued to advise me.


            I was silent and did not answer


“Gua come along, it's been a while


also did not meet Bokap lu.”


            I'm still silent not answering, I don't like my father,


but on one hand I miss him being in front of me. Looks like an idea


it's good if I go see him with the Goddess so as not to feel awkward after


long time no talk to my dad.


“Ya already,” me


assented.


“That dong.”


            I just smiled, took my cigarette and


sucking on it, he looked at me while shaking his head.


“Smoking while copying


good,” I said code it


“Mending direct


leave aja deh yuk, already want 12 hours too, you can coffee there,” invite him.


“Lunny you, where is possible


cave smoking front bokap.”


“Diih, yes don't


smoke, finish first your cigarette a stick, just stay coffee deh there.”


“Say you don't want to


bawain coffee for cave.”


“Yeah, baperan lu,


if you make coffee here so long ago, kasian Bokap you wait ntar.”


            I also only obey and the truth, said the Goddess I will


it's too late to see Dad because I spent a cup so long


coffees. I also finished my cigarette, then immediately went to the location


it was decided by Dad.



            This place hasn't changed at all, the place where I


I used to talk to you together when I was in college


he has not worked as a Political Elite. When I was in college I lived in


Dad's apartment in this town, because it's a long way off if I have to go back and forth


from the campus to my campus in Jakarta.


Usually


My dad brought me here almost every Saturday. He told me that


every Saturday he always has a very important business in Jakarta, however


I don't know what it's about, because I never asked.


            Since he established himself as one of the


Political Elite in the Wilderness, we've never been here again


now he's taking me back to meet at this place.


            I walked into a cafe that was not so big yet


not also small, simple but very warm atmosphere in it. I look


around the cafe but it seems that me and the Goddess arrived first, then


we decided to sit and wait for Dad.


“Mau mesan what mas,”


ask the waiter while giving him the menu


“Later, being


waiting for another,” reply me


“Good mas,” then he


leave us both


“Bokap you know also the place


cool like yak.”


“The cave used to come here


ama her while still in college.”


“Teruss, Now still?”


“So, just this time again


he took the cave.”


“Bokap kangen kali ama lu.”


            I didn't respond to the words of the Goddess, because I wasn't sure


if my father has a longing for me, how can he miss me


His wife alone he always left in loneliness in the Palace that he


wake up to his family.


“That's why you're so,”


point the Goddess towards the outside door of the cafe.


            I also looked at the direction that the Goddess pointed to, he was my father


which all this time I miss his presence after I have not met for so long,


because when I came here he was always not there, and as long as he was in Jakarta


I never met him either. I only met him when Lebaran


two years ago. Lebaran yesterday I didn't come home because I left it alone on the ground


saintly. When I got home from there I never saw Dad again.


            Something was strange when I saw him walking


entering the cafe with one person in batik clothes who accompanied him, since when


he has guards, I wonder. This guy looks skinny now, what's with


he was, was it because he was too busy to even notice himself.


My father was very tall and dashing since I last saw him, but


now different, he looks a little skinny. She smiled and saw me


stand in her face followed by the Goddess.


standing next to me


            Father sat in front of us, and I and the Goddess


sitting next to each other, the man in batik clothes was sitting somewhere else a little far away


from our.


“You've been a long time?”


Ask.


“No kok Om” reply Goddess.


“I haven't been for a long time


seeing you Goddess,”.


“I too, Om in sight


skinny now,” said Dewi


My father


just a thin smile.


“But Om is healthy right?”


resumes again


“You've seen me


pain?” reply Dad asked with a smile


“Hahaha is right too,


I have never seen Om sick” replied Dewi.


            Dad was never sick, at most just cheerful


but he's very good at recovering quickly, Dad's very good


given his physical condition, he rarely became ill.


            I just kept quiet to see the two of them talking, Goddess


it is very close to my family, for Father and Mother, Goddess already


they think like their own daughter, so it's no wonder that Dad feels too


happy to talk to the Goddess.


But


he'll want to see me, you better talk about it, I don't like it


pleasantries. My heart was happy to meet Dad, but on the side


another my heart aches at the sight of her behavior that always leaves Mom at home.


“Om want to mesen what?” Ask


Goddess while calling the servant


“Copy only,” replied Father.


“Om not eating?”


“No need, I'm in a hurry.”


“Lu mesen what is Gy?”


“Coffee aja.”


“Kok on don't want to eat


hell,” pissed off Goddess


“Hahaha,” Dad too


laughingly


            The goddess gave our menu and order to the waiter, then


the waiter left the three of us.


“You're a copyist


like me now Nugy,” Dad said


“Dad is hunting


don't you? so straight away what exactly brought me here?” reply asked


kettle.


“Nugy,” says Goddess while


smacked my hand.


“Tak what Goddess, she


seems to hate me now,” said Father casually.


            I just kept waiting for what he was going to say


to me


“I just want


told me I'd sell our house, as a member of your family


must know this,” he said firmly.


“APA,” reply to me in shock.


“I've expected your reaction,” he said.


“A Political Elite


in need of money apparently to have to sell the treasure that becomes


a precious place for his wife, whom he often left behind,” my reply while


sneer smile.


“I don't care about you


say what Nugy, I'm here just to tell you,” reply.


“Until when?” my many.


My emotions


very peaked now


“What?” hernia.


“Until when do you continue


torturing my mother? have you turned into a demon just because of the throne and


the treasure you got in this Wilderness,” I asked.


“Oohh, you've already


good at being disrespectful to me,” replied insinuating me.


“I don't care, anybody


what ruined my family, he was my enemy, and I don't need to be polite with


my enemy.”


“Oke then can


you give back what you got from your enemy?”


I


just a silent, unmoved voice, I just spoke without thinking, my emotions


too high until I say something that can make me not


warty.


“You can't? Yes already


I'll just say that for you, you're a big Nugy, you better be more


think, and control your emotions well,” he said then stood up.


“Om go first Goddess,” while


passed away followed by the person in batik clothes earlier.


“I—ya Om,” says the Goddess


confused as to what he should be like for what happened between us


both.


            He might be upset with me being disrespectful to you, Dad,


but he also understood how I felt, so he didn't scold me, he did


let me shut up first.


“Let's go,” take me.


“The order is not yet coming


Nugy.”


“Udah stay paid aja,”


tell me.


“Nug—”


“Cave to Mom,”


i said lirih.


            He just looked at me for a long time.


“Yaudah, but the cave's coming


yeah,” he said slowly.


Seems


he understands my feelings at the moment.


            I nodded then went to pay for our order


it hasn't come yet, but it's better to get paid.
