"I want to go back to the boarding house, but if you want to go where, I'll go"
"Do you really want to go? Want to go to Antarctica too?"
"I don't think you're that crazy right now"
"Hahahaha, yes it hasn't reached that stage yet"
"Well, that means the place is still around this city"
"Meet me lunch, eat meatballs. Wanna?"
"Yes want dong, but there's a condition?"
"What?"
"It has to be good, hahaha"
"Primanded non, definitely delicious. Especially if you eat the same. Nice double"
We ate in the west, away from my campus. The place kinda went inside. If I go there alone, I will forget not to know the way. I am the one who remembers the path the most. Maybe because all this time I was always sitting sweet in a bell so often do not pay attention to the streets. Anyway until then.
"Nes, it's up", he patted my leg slowly.
"Away too yeah, sure it's delicious"
"Don't, I come here a lot with my friends"
"What friend is a boyfriend?", I'm so excited! . I want to slap my mouth. Why am I like that?.
He looked me in the eye and he smiled, "Friend my friend? Why, jealousy?"
"Eh, it's not. Why jealousy anyway", the pounding in my heart the rhythm began strange. Too tight.
"We eat under the tree, yes, if it's there"
"What do you want nes?. Any urate meatballs, complete or regular?"
"Whatever it is, I'm following you". This is a really big girl of mine. If asked the answer likes whatever. Abis is nyesel, that's often it. "Oh, try that message".
The meat was delicious, I wanted to add a second bowl but I was embarrassed. Mahesa looked at me with a smile.
"Why continue to worry? Something weird, huh?"
"Nes, if you eat slowly. I think people want to go to war. You eat it the same I am not the same your friends who if you eat should be spit if not spit ntar left behind. Just calm down, I'm waiting for you" her smile widened. Ah, he teased me.
"Hahaha yes anyway. Habits. How else dong?. I thought you loved it so worried"
Well, really, my mouth is asking to be slapped. presumptuousness. This is how the speed of the mouth beats the speed of thought. Finally the one that comes out of the mouth likes the origin.
Mahesa looked at me, her smile expanding.
"If so, how? The one in front of me will accept?"
I started to misbehave. It's because of my mouth that can't be bragged. "Kalem nes, kalem" my heart said.
"Yes, if you're not ready for the answer. I'm willing to wait" and her smile expands.
Uh, he's making me feel more wrong. And he seems to enjoy it. I saw her smile getting wider.
Fortunately, the conversation did not continue. I can just answer 'I accept', or 'I love you too'. But it seems the time is not right. I need to strengthen my heart first. That I really loved her.
"We go home yuk, I still have a job"
"Yes, I'll pay first. Abis, I'm taking you home. But a little chat at your room, can't you? Any promises to someone not nes?"
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
"Eh, thank you for buying meatballs. It's really nice meatballs. Often yes, because it is one of the nutritional improvements for boarding children"
"Hahaha so yes. Okay, I'll buy it again. If you only practice that little meatball"
"What the hell are you talking about? I think it's serious"
"Nothing special, just talk to you. I don't know, I want to see you. If you are disturbed say yes nes. I don't want you to be uncomfortable"
"I'll just meet you. No, I'm not disturbed. Especially if you treat me often. Hahahaha.joking that this one"
"Fear you don't want to come again, ntar you think I'll ask for a treat"
We had a long chat, he started asking about my family. All about me. And I'm not bothered by his questions. I told you everything for what it is. It feels good to talk to him.
"If you have graduated from college, will you go back to your city or will you still be here?"
"I don't know yet, and I haven't thought about it. The important thing is that my script is done. I'm examing. That was it first. Why?"
"I'm afraid I can't see you anymore"
Why is Mahesa suddenly this sad?. Make me misbehave again. Ah, Mahesa you managed to make me float.
"Hell, don't think about it. My script is still Chapter 1 not finished. Until I look at the writing of Chapter 1. When do I start the next chapter?"
"Yes, I hope it's over soon. It's good to have a plan in life"
"Yes, I'm not a burden to my mom anymore. If you work, you can help your mom. Yesterday I wanted to work. Mama can't, later your lecture is not finished, so he said"
"When I work well, I can help. But she wanted mama to. I just shunned it. Not going well if parents do not approve. Isn't that Mahesa's brother?" I started teasing him.
"Haha yes it is right"
We talked for a long time. Until he finally came home.
"Nes, I'm still waiting for your answer. You accept me or not"
Holy hooch! I thought I was kidding. He was serious about his love statement. I thought it was a joke to tease me.
I looked into his eyes, I must be sure he was really serious about what he said. For me, love is not something that is done for playfulness. There is a sacrifice and struggle in it.
"How long do you wait for my answer?"
"I'll wait for anything. I'm serious about what I said?"
"But why so fast?. You just know me"
"I feel comfortable around you Anesta, and I want to be with you always. I don't know when exactly that feeling was present. How long ago we met. All I know is I don't want to lose you"
"Give me time, I'll answer at a time when I think it's right. I'm comfortable around you, too. But I have to establish my heart first, that this feeling is true"
"I'll wait for nes, until then"
To my eyes, it was like looking for answers there. He rubbed my cheek with his thumb, and I was swept away with the caress of his eyes on my face.
"I say goodbye, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow we can meet, right?"
I nodded, my tongue twitching to answer Yes. It was like he was draining all my strength.
As soon as Mahesa disappeared from my eyes. I rushed to my room. I just wanted to close my eyes, turn the memory in my head.
I know what answer I'm going to give him. I'll say "Yes Mahesa I love you". That'sthat's all.
