TURMOIL AT A YOUNG AGE
ILL-ASSUMPTION

The tares immediately rose from the body of the girl he had struck. Damnit damnit! Her hoodie zipper got stuck on the girl's long hair.

The girl groaned in pain and asked her not to pull her hair.

"It hurts to know, huh!" screeched at the girl as Ilalang tried to remove her hair stuck to her hoodie zipper.

"How can you help me all too? So heroic you!" Ilyang said with an annoyed face, with his wishful thinking still trying to remove the girl's hair from her hoodie zipper.

The distance between the two is very close. Even the girl's head was on her chest. Both of them sat on a rather dirty floor.

"How come you don't thank him anyway? I've helped you!" the girl's claws then groaned as Ilalang pulled her hair a little rough, "swallow-dark! Sick, know!" his strangler with an annoyed face at that handsome young man beside him.

"Diem! Difficult, know!" furious Ilalang who is still trying to remove the girl's hair that has been tangled with her hoodie zipper.

Hh, what the fuck? His intention to commit suicide so failed because this girl is not clear, he thought regretfully.

"Why would you commit suicide? Break up love, yes!" The girl smiled mischievously while pointing at the face of Ilalang after her hair was removed from the young man's hoodie zipper.

After being noticed the young man beside him was extremely handsome. He felt like it right away.

"It's none of your business." Ilalang immediately got up and walked away from the girl with an indifferent face.

Breaking love? No girlfriend either! But the problem is heavier than a breakup, even though he has never felt it.

"Hey! My name is Aurel Rafasya, who are you?!" the girl shouted while standing up after Ilalang moved away from her.

Ilya just smiled thinly. Aurel's? Nice name, the murmur is in the heart. But he did not want to tell Aurel his name. After all, not necessarily she would meet the girl again, he thought.

"Hey! You're a prank, yeah!" Aurel was still exclaiming.

Ilalang just shakes no matter what. The young man with the long-sleeved black hoodie instead further accelerated his pace leaving the place.

But when he arrived at the door to go down, he suddenly stopped his steps. The tares turned their heads towards the girl. Aurel was still standing there staring.

"Lo want to stay here?!" he shouted at Aurel. A moment later he resumed his steps down the stairs.

"You ..."

Aurel smiled happily at the sound of Ilalang. He immediately ran to catch up with her. But Ilalang has disappeared somewhere. Aurel had searched around the mall, but the young man with the black hoodie could not be seen anywhere.

He's very disappointed.

***

Meanwhile, Karina appears to be walking down the complex where she lives.

The woman had just returned from a mini market to buy some monthly necessities.

There are many that Karina bought, among them some of Ilalang's favorite instant noodles.

Hh, where is that son now?

Karina was very worried about Ilalang.

Even his son hasn't eaten since last night. Ilalang must be starving, he thought with a sad feeling.

"Where are you from, Ma'am?!"

Karina was taken aback when she heard a man greeting her. He immediately looked to the left side.

That guy again?

Karina rounded her eyes to see the man who asked Mr. RT's house this morning. The man was walking by his side. He even smiled at her. Her smile was very sweet with both dimples and her teeth were shuffled.

"You again, Mum. I just ran out of the mini market" Karina replied. He was a bit worried because the man was following him.

"Oh .. Can I take you home, ma'am?

Oh yeah, we don't know each other yet. I'm Bagas, whose name are you?"

The man with the stout posture stopped his steps against Karina. He put his hand on the woman in front of him.

Karina hesitated a bit. The man in front of him was younger than him. She felt a little embarrassed at Bagas' treatment of her.

"Not even dumb? You don't have a name, do you?" Bagas smiled thinly at Karina.

The woman in front of him was older than him. But Karina looked very charming in Bagas eyes. Even from this afternoon he looked at Karina's house from her house which was only a few houses away.

"I'm Karina, Mas. You live here too?" karina. He received Bagas' hand rather nervously.

"Karina. Beautiful name, as beautiful as the person," Bagas replied and smiled faintly.

"Hm, my house is there. We are neighbors, yes! I came from Bandung. From tomorrow I work at Permata Hospital."

Bagas.

"So, you're a doctor apparently," Karina said in awe.

Bagas nodded with a sweet smile. They continued their steps towards Karina's house. Bagas brought all Karina's groceries. The two of them seemed to be chatting until they arrived in front of the gate of Karina's house.

"Thank you, huh?" Karina grabbed her groceries from Bagas' hands. He was about to enter the house immediately.

"Karina, can't I stop by?" bagas said after a moment of silence. She hoped Karina would bring her in even if only for a short while. But the woman entered the gate of his house and did not look at him again.

"What are you doing? Later his wife nyariin you know, Mr Doctor." Karina smiled ignorantly.

"Which wife? Girlfriend just does not have a boro-boro wife," replied Bagas while smiling thinly.

"May I stop by for a moment. You don't have a husband, do you?" the man continued, a bit forcefully.

"It used to be, but now it's not," Karina replied with an awkward smile.

Bagas was a bit unwell over his words earlier. He ventured into the gate of Karina's house.

"Sorry, yeah. Your husband is dead, isn't he?" he said after standing in front of Karina.

"He's alive, but he's dead to me. Ah, nevermind. I was lazy to discuss it," Karina replied, she immediately continued her steps towards the door.

Bagas exhaled his breath violently. God, why did he make Karina sad?

Fuck Karina's husband where, still alive or dead, it's none of her business either, which is important the woman has a single status. He soon followed Karina.

"I'm sorry, Rin. I got asked a lot of questions with you" said Bagas after the two sat on the sofa in the living room.

Karina's house looked very clean and fragrant. But in a house that big he did not see a single housekeeper. Does Karina live alone here? Her thought.

"It's okay, Mas. Please drink the tea." Karina just smiled faintly.

The man next to him was young, dashing and a heart specialist. Lucky for the woman who became his wife Bagas later, he thought he began to slur.

"Thank you, Rin." Bagas sipped on his teacup slowly. Sweet, like Karina's smile, she thought then raised her pair of eyes to the face of ayu in front.

"Rin, you live alone in this house?" tanya Bagas after putting her tea cup back on the table. He turned his head to Karina who was sitting on his left.

"I live with my son, Mas. She was only eighteen years old," Karina replied as she was.

Bagas. "Oh ... Now where is your son, Rin? I want to meet him" he asked later.

He likes Karina. Bagas was delighted to hear that the woman already had a son. Maybe he could be close to his son Karina, he thought.

"He hasn't come home yet, Mommy." Karina looks moody. I don't know where Ilalang is at the moment.

"Oh. Maybe he's at his friend Rin's house. Teenagers are never at home." Bagas immediately dismissed Karina's anxiety.

BRAAK!

The sound of a door being kicked violently. Bagas almost choked on the tea he was drinking. A pair of matanyam saw a teenage figure in a high school uniform who had just entered the house.

Is that Karina's son? He asked in his heart while watching Ilang who also had time to look at him with a cynical face.

"Gigge ... Honey!" Karina rushed up from the sofa and directly chased after Ilalang who was walking towards her room.

Bagas also stood up. However, he did not dare to chase after Karina. What's the matter? He's feeling bad.

"Come on, where have you been? Mommy's worried about you, honey." Karina stood next to Ilalang who was taking off her shoes while sitting on the sofa in her room.

"Worrying about me? Hh, isn't Mommy making out the same as a striped-nose guy?!" Ilalang said without looking at his mother. Sure enough, his mother was busy courting in the living room earlier.

Basis ...

Ilalang closed his eyes while turning his face to hold back the emotion that was rumbling in the chest.

"Who's dating, Lang? That was Om Bagas, he's our new neighbor," Karina argued trying to straighten out the bad guess Ilalang had on her.

"It's none of my business." With a careless face, Ilalang immediately got up and walked towards the bathroom.

He looked very disappointed at Karina. What a fool he is! It was obvious she saw her mother being alone with the man earlier.

Goddamnit! The tares hit the glass wall of the bathroom with his fists based on great emotion. Until when did her mother keep going like this? He's not really strong anymore.
