Old Jacket
Chapters 2. Granting Dinda.

The heavy rain is now just a trickle. Lana's eyes occasionally look at the clock attached to the wall of the room, but her eyes are fixed on a new message that suddenly appears on her phone screen. It turned out that a short message in the form of an invitation to sit relax in the coffee shop owned by uncle Bara who was not far from Lana's house . Lana assures Bara's invitation is very sudden, it's okay also bored at home. Then Lana drove her motorcycle through the rain to the coffee shop. Before long Lana arrived in advance compared to Bara, it is only natural that the distance of this coffee shop is quite far from Bara's house.

" robusta coffee, a little sugar pack" said I ordered.

while waiting for the order, Lana was suddenly shocked by someone who patted me on the back of the shoulder. 

" Eh Dinda, make me surprised" I said.

" Do not bengong ntar hahaha possessed" he said while laughing.

"Tumben you're here din?" ask me.

"For bosen at home, can you join? "said.

Lana agreed to his wish, immediately there was a sound of exhaust from the Bara motorbike with a serving of coffee that had been served.

"Alo na, uh is Dinda tumben really din here?" ask Bara.

" yes bar again bosen cave at home" replied dinda.

" I'm sorry the cave came with a tightness, so disturb deh ahahha "he said with a small laugh.

Lana and Dinda just smiled and said nothing. Then Lana opened a chat about the philosophy of coffee. coffee is opium although bitter, for Lana as a connoisseur has not seen from the taste of the coffee but from the art of coffee. If you look at the taste of coffee, the taste will certainly be so-so. But if we look at art then Lana gets something inspiring to write. Dinda just kept quiet and looked at Lana with a small smile, unlike Bara who was sitting closed his eyes with a cigarette in his left hand and listened to Novo Amor songs sourced from small speakers in the corner of the room.

" you don't smoke" said Dinda breaking the silence.

" smoke, but "just answer me later.

Then Dinda inquired about Lana's novel. Lana just took a deep breath and shook her head, it feels like lately I have been having a hard time getting inspired. 

" just relax first na, gua sure you can do it" he said while smiling at me.

Lana just smiled as she looked at her sweet face.Then Lana told Dinda about her desire to go visit every place in Indonesia, then published it into a news story. Lana believes there is always a hidden side to every place she visits. Dinda just smiled to hear Lana tell a story, as soon as Bara who had realized from her daydream joined to make the atmosphere warmer even though the raindrops were still raining out there. 

" Na this is something for you, but don't open it now" he said, giving me a brown paperbag.

Lana did not expect Dinda to give something to Lana. Only a thank you and a smile could be given that night. After that Dinda said goodbye to go home first leaving Lana and Bara who still want to enjoy coffee.

" Well, you brought Dinda here to the bar?" I stared at Bara.

" Why also cave with Dinda na" he replied cuek.

Lana does not understand why Lana and Dinda can be found in the coffee shop, but the day began to darken in addition to the raindrops that fell from earlier.

"does any human being willing to leave the warmth of the house to get warmth from outside the house?" my inner whisper.

Eventually Lana and Bara decide to return home. Can't wait to open the paper bag Dinda gave, Lana drove the motorcycle down the quiet street until Lana arrived in front of the gate of the house. Firing Lana entered the room, her footsteps walked slowly because they did not want to wake the mother who was asleep.

Having arrived at Lana's room to open the contents of the pagebag, how shocked Lana when a levis jeans jacket given by Dinda.

Lana checked the contents of the paperbag turned out that there was a message left.

Did you forget about your special day?.

Or do you just pretend to forget your special day?.

You know what day it is today?

The day the first cry was heard.

Happy Birthday to Lana.

Thank you for always being ready to pick up the cave.

Tomorrow the cave wait in front of the gate of the house, do not be late!

Sorry for the cave arrival, it was sudden .

I also leave my words through this letter.

Greetings Dinda and Bara.

Lana was surprised by the contents of this letter. Lana also forgot that today, her birthday . This time, Dinda also gave her a Birthday Gift. Now Lana knows it was Dinda's arrival to the coffee shop and Bara's sudden invitation, just to celebrate her birthday.

"Thank you Dinda, Thank you Bara." said my inner voice.

Lana lay in a warm bed, closed her eyes and fell asleep to the subconscious. 

The next morning before the screams from the mother, Lana had already gotten out of bed and had already cleaned herself up. Not to forget Lana wore a jacket Dinda gave, then headed to the table in the dining room.

" The jacket is good, since when do you have the jacket." asked the mother.

" Since last night bun, at Dinda's love" answered me with a small smile.

Mother does not understand if yesterday was her birthday, Lana did not mind her. For him it is the same as the usual days, but after last night it felt different. After eating fried rice made by the mother, Lana bounces to pick up Dinda at her house, Lana kisses Mother's hand, then Lana steps away to her motorcycle.

On her motorcycle Lana is curious about Dinda's expression, When Dinda sees Lana using the jacket that Dinda gave her. 

" Sister gojek?" he said with a small laugh.

" Can you din, uh thank you very much for the gift" I said.

" Yes, both na "his answer.

On the bike, Lana had a dialogue with him for a moment.

"Dinda keep the taste to him? is Lana in love?" my inner whisper.

I don't know maybe this is just a thank you from Dinda because Lana often takes you.

Lana and Dinda walk down the crowded streets. Lana and Dinda arrive at school. Lana and Dinda walked side by side to the next seat. 

Not expected Bara first came, but this is still early in the morning.

" Cie new jacket" said Bara meledek.

" Don't be a lo snob, you're not the same as Dinda ? " answer me.

In the end Bara confessed and explained to Lana about his plan yesterday. At once Lana's eyes turned towards Dinda, and again Lana had a dialogue with me.

"Dinda keep the Flavor on me?" my inner whisper.
