Chapters 27. Dara is Dinda and Mommy.


It just so happens to be Sunday. Lana got out of her bed and then stepped out into the yard with her shorts. Instantly Lana's eyes look towards Dara who is cutting her favorite flower twig.


" Where are you going ?" ask Dara.


" Want to coffee in the front stall." replied Lana.


" There will be aunty anyway mas, can ask for help made." he said.


" Gapapa, I can make coffee at the front stall " replied Lana as she stepped towards the gate.


As she was about to open the gate, Dara suddenly followed me from behind.


" Where are you going ?" ask Lana.


" Ngopi in the front stall " replied Dara.


Lana just laughed a little then they stepped out together. At the stall Lana sat opposite Dara waiting for the order to be delivered.


" Can I ask you something? " said Dara.


" May "answer Lana.


" When you give me clothes, you call Dinda's name. Dinda who is mas? " ask Dara.


Dara's words managed to make Lana speechless, then Lana gave a long sigh and then told a story.


" He is my girlfriend who went missing in Mount Kembang. When I found you the thought seemed to go back in time while I was looking for Dinda "buffed Lana.


" I'm sorry I don't know" said Dara Lirih.


" No papa kok mbak it's the past " replied Lana while smiling.


" Do not call mbak, Dara aja" said Dara turned the topic.


" Yaudah call me Lana too" Lana replied with a smile.


While busy chatting, Instantly the incoming call from Dara's phone rang. Not long after, Lana and Dara got up from their seats and walked home.


Upon arrival at home, Lana was busy writing articles to make him sleepy and then fell asleep.


Lana wakes up when a knock on her bedroom door sounds. Rushing he opened the door of his room and there was Dara at his door.


" Eh Dara what's wrong? " lana said as she rubbed her eyes.


" Yuk streets " replied Dara.


" Hmm can, just a minute yak" said Lana.


Rushing Lana changed her clothes and got out, riding a motorcycle.


" Where are we going ?" ask Lana.


" Hmmmm it's up to "answer Dinda.


" To Gunung Kidul yuk? look at the twilight. "ask Lana.


" May and " answered Dinda.


Lana drove on a motorcycle down a fairly crowded urban street. Long enough they were on the bike until finally Lana and Dara arrived at the destination. The expanse of the ocean with an orange sky above it makes Lana want to enjoy the atmosphere by not talking much as well as Dara. Every now and then Lana steals a glance towards Dara. The clear look on Dinda's face in her mind.


" Don't eat me na hahah" said Dinda.


" Geeer so you "reply answered Lana.


The twilight slowly disappeared, now the sky became evening. Lana invites Dara to return home. On the motorcycle Dara invites chatting.


" It seems you like dusk" said Dara.


" Yes, Kanna Dusk taught me the sincerity of "answered Lana.


" Is it something to do with Dinda? " ask Dara.


Upon their arrival at home, when Lana opened the door it turns out Lana and Dara have been waiting for Mr. Amir in the living room. Dara went straight to her room while Lana sat with Mr. Amir in the living room.


" I'm sorry about coming home a little night" said Lana Lirih.


" Oh yes, gapapa, I have not seen Dara smile again after the departure of her mother" said Mr. Amir while smiling at Lana.


" Can I see your writing by the way? " ask Mr. Amir.


Rushed Lana into the room to take her laptop, then showed some writing of his work to Mr. Amir.


" Om interested in your writing, your writing is good enough. Om will charge you for your journey to produce this writing again, how? " said Mr. Amir.


" Thank you so much, " replied Lana.


" Where is your next trip going? " ask Mr. Amir.


" Mountain of flowers" replied Lana.


Mr. Amir just nodded his head, Before long Dara came with a tray in his hand.


" This is a sponge cake made by Dara, try it" said Dara.


Lana tried the sponge cake made by Dara, it tastes good like made by mother.


" Any ra, like my mother's" said Lana.


They talked and laughed together. Dara's smile reminds Lana of Dinda, and Dara's sponge cake reminds Lana of Mommy. It feels like it has not met Dinda and Mommy for a long time, but Lana is grateful to be able to meet Dara and Pak Amir as a relief for longing with Dinda and Mommy.


As the night begins to dissolve Lana, Dara and Mr. Amir enter their respective rooms. While in the room Lana opens her laptop trying to continue writing her novel. As her face focused on the laptop in front of her, the instant her phone rang, a message from Dara appeared on her phone screen.


Thanks for today on:') . Fill in Dara's message.


Yes equally, tomorrow I will go on my way. Answer Lana.


Why so soon? .reply to the message.


Lana and Dara exchanged messages, Dara tried to prevent me from going too cold but her efforts were in vain.


One day we will meet again. The contents of Lana's message closed the conversation.


Afterwards Lana put her body in the bed and tried to sleep.


The next morning Lana woke up and walked out of the room to the bathroom. Afterwards, Lana packed her clothes and sat in the living room waiting for Mr. Amir to come out of her room. Before long Mr. Amir came out and invited him to eat with Dara. Dara was silent at the dinner table. After finishing eating Lana say goodbye and say thank you to Mr. Amir and Dara. After that Dara drove me to the front gate of her house.


" Be careful on the road na" said Dara Lirih.


" Yes, this is for you ", Lana replied as she removed the bracelet in her hand.


" We will meet again ra after my trip " said Lana with a smile.


" Promise ? " said Dara looking at me.


" Promise "answer Lana smiled.


Then Lana takes her motorcycle and leaves Dara. On a motorcycle, it was hard to leave Dara but Lana had to finish her journey.


" Am I in love with Dara, or just being unemployed? " inner whisper Lana.


Lana keeps on riding her motorcycle, occasionally stopping at the stall to rest. While burning cigarettes, suddenly his phone rang displaying a message from Dara.


I know you're a bitch, but remember I'm always waiting for you. Send a message from Dara.


Lana just laughed a little then she replied to a message from him.


I will always try to be patient :') . Reply to Lana's message.


After her Lana continued the journey to basecamp mountain.
