Asking You In Every Bow
21. What is Love?

Naura spends all her days going to the kitchen and going to school. Inevitably, the rules of the cottage must be obeyed.this afternoon he went into the kitchen again for activities that every woman always do. Learn cooking.

"Huh, it's hot in here. I could die" Naura walked out of the kitchen as she felt tired with the atmosphere quite covered and filled with cooking fumes that made her want to explode.

"where are you going, Naura?" ask someone who saw Naura pass. Naura did not know who, because from earlier, her eyes were busy looking for a place to rest and had ignored the person, Naura did not answer.

Naura stopped in front of the rice field that was next to the hut. He looked at the vastness of the sky that he could see as much as he could. The wind is so cool at dusk today.

"Maybe this is the right place for me to lean on for a moment."

Naura sat on a fairly large, round rock next to her. Only then could he feel a little calmness from the tiredness of this long day.

His mind floated back. Suddenly the shadow of his family was present in his mind.indu can not be lied to by him.

Naura is still fairly unknown to the cottage, then Naura will feel still alone even though many people want to be friends with her.

A single tear dripped from the corner of his eye. A few questions followed the turn of the fallen tears. Which question he would always ask and no one could answer.

"Why do you have to put me in this place?"

"For what?"

"Can't I live with you? happy with you guys? I'll change even at home"

"What happiness will I get from here?"

The plot!

Naura threw an empty can with just about anything that hit someone behind her. Out of annoyance, Naura will smash or throw whatever objects are around without thinking about where to fly after being thrown.

"Hey, the lady over there! Don't you have eyes?"

It was Udin. Udin looked annoyed and shook his head several times. Naura looked at him for a moment.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to throw a rock, but-"

"Ah, thats. Well I'm sorry. Lucky my head is not like a balloon that will immediately break because it was hit by a stone throw from you. Huh," said Udin resigned and passed.

Now it has been almost a week Naura lived in her new place, pesantren. It does not feel so empty because he feels still with family, even though not actually family. Naura began to feel grateful to still be able to be reunited with good people. He did not think that he no longer felt foreign to a place that smelled of pesantren.

"Naura, you look like you're getting comfortable here. Brother is happy." said Fatimah to Naura who was cleaning her face.

Naura smiled, "This is all thanks to you and the good people here. Thank you." Thank you."

"Naura. Looks like Brother left something in your room. You go first. Brother will follow. Forgive Brother."

"What's wrong, brother. Go awayl. I'll walk alone."

Fatimah just smiled faintly. Then Fatimah turned around and walked a little hastily. Naura continued her steps towards the kitchen.

Ramdan walked from the right side of Naura Street. Until they finally meet and meet. The two stopped walking and fell silent, then acted awkwardly. I don't know where to start a conversation.

"Assalamualaikum," said Naura in the end.

"Waalaikumusalam. Um, where are you going?" reply Ramdan.

"I'm going to the kitchen. You alone?"

"Oh, let's go together. I happen to be going home." Ramdan started to step up after Naura nodded and walked first.

On the way, both of them were silent without a sound. The silence made both of them nervous.

"It's comfortable living in a pesantren?" tanya Ramdan melts the atmosphere.

"Ehm, it looks like." Naura nodded.

After that, Ramdan only nodded in understanding. And things went back to silence. Both do not know what to start a conversation and what it is like. Nervous.

"Ramp. Can I ask you something?" naura said, braced.

"Yes? Sure." Sure."

"What is love?"

Naura's question managed to make Ramdan turn his head towards her without stopping their journey.

"I think love is a wonderful feeling. And the beauty of love comes from sincerity and struggle." Ramdan smiled faintly.

"Is love eternal?"

"Yes. Love is eternal. And if that love ends in the end, it means that the eternity of love is not ours."

Naura just fell silent to understand Ramdan's words.

"Do you have love for someone?" naura asked, making Ramdan speechless.
