Buntara Rindu

Buntara Rindu
Section 6


Missing to lay her body on the bed, she was really tired. She sighed softly, taking off her hijab until her beautiful black hair completely unraveled. The shadow of Reyhan always dominates the heart of longing. As if Reyhan's name had entered into the joints of the body Missing. His love for the man seemed to be indeed not one-handed, it was just that their fates were different. Miss is not a girl born from the blue blood breed that Kiai Ma'ruf and Nyai Ima might accept as a daughter-in-law. Even though they love Miss. Their love is only for children, not for sons-in-laws.


Missing phone rang, the girl moved from her position and grabbed her totebag to pick up her mobile phone.


"G ... Nyai Ima." Quickly miss picking up the phone from a woman who is arguably better than her own biological mother.


"Hello, Nduk. Assalamualaikum."


"Waalaikumussalam, Nyai." Miss answered Nyai Ima's phone with a carefree feeling.


"Busy, Ndak?" ask the middle-aged woman from behind the phone call.


"Ndak, New. Onten nopo, huh?"


"I'm dizzy, Nduk." Such is the custom of Nyai Ima when calling Miss, because she feels comfortable complaining with a girl who has been considered her own child. Moreover, he deliberately sent Rindu in Jakarta only because Reyhan has now become one of the lecturers at the University where the girl attended college.


"Dizziness why, Nyai?"


"Iki lo, the candidate e Reyhan has graduated, his parents want to be immediately preached."


Longs speechless. Hearing Nyai Ima's words made her tears come out. His heart feels hot. He didn't think jealousy would hurt like this. It was as if there was something gnawing inside there.


"Oh... Mbak Adiba has graduated, yes, Nyai?


"Yes, but Reyhan doesn't want to go home. Do you know, there Reyhan's got a girlfriend maybe?"


While trying his hardest, covering up his sadness. I miss answering politely. "Ah. ndak, Nyai. I miss seeing Gus Reyhan being so busy."


"Oh... Thank God I want to ngono. Do not think Reyhan already have a girlfriend po pie, until do not want to spit home. Uh... Nduks. You can't persuade your people to go back to Semarang."


"Yes, I won't try, yeah, Nyai."


"Yes, you like to fuck with you. Please Nyai, yes, Nduk."


"Jih, Nyai."


"Then it was a long time ago, yes. He wants to make coffee for Abah. Assalamualaikum."


"Mosur."


The sound of the phone being cut off seemed to be the most painful tone for Missing. How can he persuade a man he likes, to marry another woman. Thinking too Missed not want. But how else. This was all in return for his cultivation with Nyai and Kiai Ma'ruf who were amazingly good beyond both parents.


He missed sighing slowly, and returned to his body. He wanted to close his eyes, before taking a shower after that looking for dinner.

The sound of the azan that had just reverberated woke Miss who had just slept a chicken, the girl immediately grabbed the towel from the clothesline and went into the bathroom. Dousing his body with water. This cold water really gives a refreshing effect, especially for the heart that is upset.


The magical effect of a cold shower is indeed extraordinary, now misses back fresh. Ready to put on her dress, to find food outside. You could say the price of one meal in Jakarta is quite expensive, even though this is near the campus. Maybe because the UMK here is also high, high income, and force any price as if to follow it all. Longs often buy fried rice brothers on the side of the road. It is quite possible to save money, rather than having to buy food in restaurants or cafes that are widely available in the boarding area.


After completing the Magrib Prayer, Missing to walk out of the room by herself to open the fence, she wore a pink floral print and a rectangular hijab in the same color as her robe.


When the girl was about to step outside, she unconsciously saw Saka who was already standing not far from the cost of Missing. The girl frowned. What's Saka coming here for. Miss almost forgot, how did her elder sister know where Miss lived, because this afternoon she followed her to the front here.


"Mas... Wait who?" Without further ado Longs to ask the man.


"Eh... Miss, I forgot that you're also boarding here." Saka pointed towards the side of the homes of Miss which there is also the cost of princess. "I'm waiting for you, Ma'am. Make for food. Uh... Said he'd gone with his girlfriend."


"Oh... That is, well then, I'm looking for food first, yes, Mas." Longing was about to walk past Saka, and the man really wanted to stop Missing. So that the girl does not walk alone, because Jakarta is prone to crime, her maleness leads her to want to keep this woman.


"Mom want to eat? Can I not be together?"


Longing to frown again, they had just known each other, and inexplicably Saka suddenly became familiar to him. Though this man is usually always together with two friends who miss themselves do not know what their names are.


"But I want to eat fried rice on the side of the road, Mas. Is it acceptable?" tanya Miss is a little awkward.


"Yes, Daddy. The important thing is to be with him, rather than alone," he replied.


Saka usually does anything on his own without the help of others. But after seeing Miss's face and getting to know this girl. Saka is hypnotized and wants to be with her. Though he did not know Miss fully, who he is and how his nature.


Both walk in the dimness of the night lights housing the Grogol area of Jakarta. Until arriving at one of the roadside fried rice carts that are only covered with tarpaulins as shade and plastic chairs to sit or just eat on the spot.


"Our fried rice doesn't suck." I miss starting to order. Then glanced towards Saka. "What gas?"


"Fried rice chicken pedes."


"Pak Nasi fried egg one does not spit, and fried rice chicken one pedes. On the pack, sir."


"Lohs... How wrapped? Eat here just mbak, while chatting," seloroh Saka.


Miss not sure you can eat on the side of the road, with a man who is not his mahram.


"Ndak papa Ma'am. I'm not a macem-macem really," Saka assures Miss.


"Sir... Eat here, yeah."


"Ready, Neng. Waiting, yeah."


Miss then sat down next to Saka, a little distance away, but could quite hear when the man spoke.


"Mother is always alone, huh?" Saka began to open up the conversation between them, and Miss only replied with a weak nod. He's not comfortable here, but he already wants how else. After all, he also often ate with Reyhan when his lecturer was not busy.


"I only have two friends in Jakarta, Mas. One faculty too."


"Oh.. The two pretty girls always line up with you, huh?" tanyakanya.


"Why do you know?"


Saka ragged, he slipped if he always paid attention to Missing on campus, when Missing to follow ospek activities.


"Eh... That, I saw you on campus a few more times with two girls."


"Oh...." Saka's denial makes Miss believe, after all, impossible if Saka deliberately follows Miss who is only a village woman who is migrating to Jakarta to find knowledge.


For the size of a man like Saka who is arguably handsome, there must be a lot of girls who want to be courted by the man.


"Mas... I'm your level brother. Call a name. Don't call me Ma'am." Miss smiling.


"Oh... Yeah, deh. Let's get along, right?" The science of canuragan land crocodiles began to be launched by Saka. He always aimed at women precisely and got what he wanted. However, this time with Miss is different, even though she looks friendly, but it is clear that the girl built an unusually sturdy wall to fortify their closeness.


"If I keep calling Mas, yeah." Longs chuckles. "Kan sampean is older than me."


"Call the others can also, uh...." Saka started to cry. It made Miss shy.
