"Nooo..." I screamed as hard as I could, crying as I could. I'm arrogant to have hurt Ratri, because I don't want to be honest about my feelings for him. If only I could turn back time I would have poured my love into him.
But now it was too late, Ratri was gone. Go away for good. "Ratri. forgive me..." When Ratri's body was covered with cloth. It was not only me who felt lost, but also the people closest to him.
Especially Mak Ningrum, Mr. Daniswara, and his wife. Ratri is a good person, thus leaving a tremendous impression in the hearts of those closest to him.
An hour later, Ratri's body was put into an ambulance, because it would be taken to the funeral home. I sat down with Mr. Daniswara and Ningrum in the ambulance accompanying the corpse. I stared at Ratri's body-covering cloth as if praying, may there be a miracle that Ratri has not died.
Arriving at the funeral home, the girl of my heart now lives a frozen suit and bathed by Mak Ningrum, Banuwati, and also Gendis.
The coffins that have been decorated with flowers have been lifted by people. I can only be stuck in place.
"Gayatriiii, don't go! Gayathr..." My screams chased after the coffins that were already on the shoulders of the 6 men left and right.
"Argha... Arga... wake up Ga" My cheeks felt someone patting. I opened my eyes, it was Mr. Daniswara.
"Master... Gayatri is gone sir. Why so fast? I love him Sir, but I'm late to say." I cried like a child sitting on a chair in front of master Daniswara and Nyoya Banuwati who were just stunned looking at me.
"Arga...." Banuwati.
Hearing Banuwati say, I sat up straight. "Mrs... Mister..." I rubbed my new eyes. Apparently I fell asleep in the waiting room in a sitting position.
"So you love Ratri?" Asked Hendri, who had been silent since. My lips were firmly set, my gaze fixed on Mr. Daniswara who was staring at me intently.
"Sir.Let me marry Ratri if you realize it later. I love him." I said ventured, without caring about Hendri.
Plaque!!
"Such a design!" A hard slap hit my cheek. I didn't answer rubbing my sore cheek.
"Father!" Bentak Mrs Banuwati. Looking at her husband, I could not believe it.
"Start this second too! I fired you Arga!" Hardik Tuan Daniswara's.
"What's this?" Mak Ningrum with Mom, get out of the ICU room. Apparently clasped Mr. Daniswara until heard by him.
"Sorry Ma'am Wati, this is a hospital, not a forest. Mister Daniswara should know better than I do. If the anger of Mbak Wati's husband was very disturbing to the patient," Sindir Mak Ningrum, then his gaze turned to Daniswara who was still looking at his palm. "Dear Lord Daniswara, you should be able to control your emotions." Imbuh Mak Ningrum's.
"I'm sorry my husband Rum." Banuwati knitted her husband's arm to take her away, followed by Hendri.
"Arga... What's the matter, son?" Ask Mak Ningrum gently.
"It's okay Mak, can I see Ratri for a moment?" My toot.
"Why should you say Arga, usually you always visit," replied Mak. With quick footsteps I headed for the ICU room.
"Rum, what's the matter.. Who was that guy?" Mom's asking caught in my ear.
"Daniswara is Arga Mbak Retno's boss, Ratri's Papa." Answer Mak Ningrum. I then entered the room closing the door not to hear any more Mom and Mak Ningrum talk.
I approached the body I had just dreamed of, still in the same position. Full sleep aids. Fragrant parvum aroma piercing nose. Naturally, Ratri had just been wiped out by Mak Ningrum.
"Ratri quickly realized, I love you, pray I succeed, so that social status does not hinder our love." I kissed the back of Ratri's hand for the first time. I wiped the tears that were dripping on the tip of Ratri's cheek-eye. "Remember my message, dear, if I come to see you again. I want to see you're conscious and smile for me."
"Mother, we'd better see her husband Bu Ningrum, keep us going home." My word.
"Arga... You didn't go to work?" Ask Mak Ningrum, and Mother together.
"Let me tell you, Mom." My answer then took my hand to visit Mr. Agus.
"Mas Agus.. This is you, my SMK friend." Mak smilingly introduced Mother to Mr. Agus.
"Hopefully heal Mr. Agus." Mom cupped both palms.
"Aamiin.. thanks Ma'am, I've been bothered to visit me."
"Together Sir, we are both wander should be in touch," replied Mother.
After talking for a few minutes, I took Mom home, after saying goodbye to Mak Ningrum, and also Mr. Agus.
Arriving home, I entered the room still contemplating. At first I was afraid that something like this would happen, which was fired on personal grounds by Daniswara. But yes, I must accept the consequences of having dared to love Ratri.
Tok to tok.
"Come on Ma'am, it's not locked" I answered, getting up and then cross-legged in bed. Immediately I tidied my hair with my hands so as not to look okay in front of Mom.
"We have lunch first, I've cooked your favorite," Mom opened the door and approached me.
"Yes Ma... What do you cook? Today I wanted to eat with Mom, "I smiled, again hiding mixed feelings.
"Lee... What's the matter? There's no way you don't have anything, then you suddenly don't work, what else is your boss to slap you?" Ask Mother gently. As a parent, I can feel what I feel.
"I fired Mom." I answered, trying to be strong. I was disappointed with Daniswara. After all, I worked with him for years. After all, all this time I didn't have a bad record in the company. Miris indeed, if I was fired for not being able to work, of course I sincerely accept it.
"Fired?" Mom's surprised. "Why Lee... What is the problem? You mislead the company's money, or you can't work and then cause your boss's company to lose?" Disappointed Mom looked at me.
"Not Ma'am, actually because I admit that I like Ratri, then you're angry." Honest guy. What else is covered up.
"Astagfirullah.. is not your boss, S2 graduates abroad, why not professional anyway?!" Mommy Gulps.
"Let's go ma'am, she said she wanted to eat, come on." I divert. We had lunch together in a little chat, but I chose to talk about my hometown.
For a week I was unemployed and was thinking. Maybe it's better to open my own business, but what effort? I remember in Gunungkidul. Badung tubers grow wild, and people are reluctant to cultivate. Because the tubers are poisonous if they cannot process it. Ideas popped into my head, why didn't I make gadung a delicious snack. As per my lecture I used to take in agriculture. Now it's time for me to test my abilities.
That night I was relaxing in front of the television with my mother. "Mom... what are the big tubers in Gunungkidul area are still many?" My toot.
"Walaah.. a lot of Lee, make what to, if not able to process can be poisoned loh," Mother turned to me quickly.
"Don't worry ma'am, I went to college on the farm, sure know how to process the gadung so it doesn't get toxic anymore. According to Mother how, if I have a snack production plan made from tubers to be a snack and we sell Mom."
"Good idea Lee... Mom will support you. Later I want to contact your Om in the village. As an initial capital, rowdy in the vacant land of your Grandfather's relics are a lot, let's usher Om you here."
