That day, in the morning before noon, in the porch of a house that some of the paint on the wall began to peel.
"Have you come, Good girl?" Say hello to a middle-aged woman to a young man who, a few minutes ago, sat on the porch of the house.
"Already, Miss Dhe. Sorry about that I happened to leak my motorcycle tire Bu Dhe, so kind of bad luck." The young man explained something a little.
"Yes, Le. It's okay what. Oh, yes, Le. Have you had breakfast yet? Coincidentally today Bu Dhe cook oseng teri." Said the middle-aged woman then.
"It just so happens, Miss Dhe. Before I left, I had breakfast." The young man's.
"Then, Le."
"Oh, yes, Mrs Dhe. Are we leaving now or how is Miss Dhe." Said the young man afterwards.
"You don't want a drink first, Le? Ma'am Dhe make coffee first how?" The woman offered a drink to the young man.
"No, Miss Dhe. Last time at the tire patch I had been drinking ice. You've been riding a bike pretty, so sultry. Later if you do coffee, even anyangen tho, Bu Dhe." The young man clawed while slightly laughing lightly.
"Nek nyang nyang yo in kekne sisan tho, Le." The middle-aged woman did not want to lose.
"Bu Dhe Sih this could be you." The young man widened his laughter.
"Oh, yes, Mrs Dhe. I heard Mas Arya was here? Are you gone again?" Ask the young man later.
"Here, Le Le. You it, kayak don't know your wae mas. Your mas was here too just a matter of hours, it's gone to be expected." The middle-aged woman's heart while tidying up the scarf that coiled around her shoulder.
"Oh, yes, Le. What kind of letter did Ms Dhe send you? Have you sent it?" Ask the woman later.
"Already, Miss Dhe. I gave it to santri there." The young man then.
"But does it really match the address that Ms Dhe gave you?" Ask the woman to make sure.
"Related, Miss Dhe." The young man was no less convincing.
"Good, Le. Thank you, Le." The woman slightly curled her lips.
"But, Miss Dhe. Isn't that the pesantrennya brother Bu Dhe and said Bu Dhe who takes care now nephew Bu Dhe. Why do I have to do with Bu Dhe's letter if there's anything that Bu Dhe wants to say." Asked the young man a moment later.
The middle-aged woman simply smiled incontrovertibly.
"It's been, it's later that Bu Dhe will tell you, now just take Bu Dhe to meet Bu Dhe's best friend." Said the woman later.
The young man just nodded.
"Let's just come in, Le. Than waiting outside, it's a long time." Said the woman when she was on the bike.
"Well, not only Miss Dhe, later I was just dlongap dlongop. In fact, I think the patient will be there too." Sahut the young man while turning on his motor engine.
"You are, Le Le. Coulda. Do you want to be a patient there? If you want to let Miss Dhe register all of you." The middle-aged woman said slightly teasing the young man.
"Ah, Miss Dhe Sih this you could have if I knew." Said the young man while spurring the motorcycle gas he drove.
Two hours passed without notice, the motorbike driven by the young man and middle-aged woman was now seen entering a mental rehabilitation center. Soon the bike stopped and the woman was seen getting off the bike.
"You're right not to come in, Le?" Ask the middle-aged woman again.
"No, Miss Dhe. I wait in the bar usually. I can smoke while I look at YouTube." Sahut the young man giggling.
"Well then, Miss Dhe comes in first, Le."
After that the middle-aged woman immediately walked into the building where she stopped, while the young man again drove his motorbike out of the courtyard of the building.
"The Ningsih Family?" Sapa a guard who seemed to be so memorized by that woman.
"Rubber, Ma." The woman said while throwing her friendly smile.
"This is Miss Ningsih still gymnastics, ma'am. Please wait a moment. Oh, yes, Mum. It just so happened that there was also the family of Bu Ningsih who also visited her." Said the guard later.
"The Ningsih Family? Who, Mom?" Asked the middle-aged woman slightly frowned.
"That's the one, Mom." Appoint the guard to a young man sitting not far from the guard.
The middle-aged woman immediately approached the young man.
"Sorry, Mas. Is this really the Ningsih family?" Asked the middle-aged woman unceremoniously.
"I'm a friend of Ningsih's, Mas. I often visit Ningsih here. I'm sorry to know who this is?" Ask the middle-aged woman then.
"I'm Good, Mom. His nephew Bu Dhe Ning. Ms. Dhe Ning it's my Miss Dhe, her brother my father." A young man who is none other than Budi.
"Oh, son of Mas Nugroho?" Ask the middle-aged woman then.
He nodded slowly, "Right, Mom. I'm Mr. Nugroho's son."
"Well, it's big. Introduce, Mas. I'm Mulatsih, I'm his friend Ningsih from Ningsih is still in school." Said the middle-aged woman named Mulatsih afterwards.
"Oh, so it seems. Just found out this is if Miss Dhe Ning has a friend who still visits her often." Sahut Budi is not awkward anymore.
"Call me Bu Dhe Sih, Mas." Mulatsih said then.
After saying that, Mulatsih then sat on the bench opposite Budi.
"Then, Ning was a grapeyak, Mas. Easy to get familiar with anyone. He used to be a lot of friends. But since Ning is like this, maybe I'm his only friend Ning, Mas." Mulatsih said later.
Budi looked dumbfounded, "That means this Bu Dhe Sih knows very well about my Bu Dhe?" Ask later.
Mulatsih smiled, "Of course I know, Mas. Even about the reason why Ning is like this I know." Sahut Mulatsih.
"That means the closeness of Bu Dhe Sih with my Bu Dhe is far from my closeness with Bu Dhe." Sahut Budi later.
"Indeed, Mas. I remember very well, my last time to Ning and Ning's house was not like now, your age is still a matter of months, Mas. Even my son is older than you." Remember Mulatsih then.
"Emmm, means that Ms Dhe Sih knows all too well about the man?" Ask Budi then.
Mulatsih slightly turned towards Budi, then nodded his head lightly.
"Can you say, I'm the cause of Ning like this, Mas?" Mulatsih said later.
"You mean Miss Dhe Sih?" Ask Budi curious.
"Well, I was the one who introduced Ning to the man." Mulatsih is calm.
Just nod listening.
"The man is my brother. Well, since Ning and I were close friends, I originally only intended to take Ning with me to meet my sister, Mas. But who would have thought, Ning was silent and kept feeling towards my older brother, while the situation, my older brother was married. And who would have thought it would all end up like this." Mulatsih said this time his voice was slightly restrained.
"So that's it, Miss Dhe." Sahut Budi later.
"Yes, Mas. It all starts there." Mulatsih sighed.
"I feel sorry for introducing Ning to my sister, Mas. If only that time I hadn't invited Ning, maybe Ning wouldn't have been like this." Mulatsih continued later.
"That's it, Miss Dhe. Maybe everything has been arranged like this. It's not Miss Dhe's fault either. Who knows and who could have thought how a heart goes back and forth right Bu Dhe?" Saying then.
"You're right, Mas. But no matter how sorry it is always there. Hence, regardless of Ning's condition, I would still consider Ning my best friend." Sahut Mulatsih.
"I salute the friendship between Bu Dhe Sih and Bu Dhe Ning. Friends without being affected by the condition of each." Said Budi later.
"In addition to the reason that Bu Dhe said earlier also because this Miss Dhe is not a young person anymore, Mas. For young people it will be easy to find friends or friends. But if it is old like this, all will be busy with their respective affairs, the child is busy with his own life, which there is only quiet, Mas. Hence, although Ning is like that, but I can always share her grievances with her, Mas. And again, Ning isn't like our shadow, Mas. Sometimes he just talks. But there are times, he can even provide solutions that even we never thought of." Mulatsih said later.
Budi nodded his head nod, "Bu Dhe is right. Sometimes loneliness is a thing that can be very scary on appeal to anything."
Mulatsih only then smiled.
"Mas this work or what?" Tanya Mulatsih later.
Budi smiled, "I used to love Bu Dhe, but after my father had a problem, I became a little inferior and finally decided to go out. And now I'm just hanging while fixing myself up, Ms. Dhe." Sahut Budi later.
"Oh, so you've been a nyantri, Mas. Well, same with his son, Miss Dhe. Bu Dhe's son used to be a nyantri, but now it's exactly like you. The hanging is unclear. Ms. Dhe alone is sometimes confused just to know the news. Even where is Bu Dhe exactly the same nephew of the late husband of Bu Dhe." Mulatsih said later.
Laugh at hearing that.
"Well, it turns out there are also like me yes Bu Dhe. I thought it was just me who was a former santri then chose the obscure swag." Said Budi later.
"Heh, can't say that, Mom. There is no term ex-santri. Whether or not you are in pesantren, you still have to instill yourself that you are santri, Mas. Santri is not a title, but a self-implantation that must be embedded in the heart. Self-confession that must always be fertilized should not wither. Ms. Dhe also always reminds me of that, as do Ms. Dhe's children. Although no longer a nyantri, Bu Dhe always warned the children of Bu Dhe to always practice what he had gotten, no matter how small it was. Because even though it is only as small as a grain of wheat, if it can make a benefit for others, it will actually be more blessed than methenteng ngadep buku in pesantren, Mas." Mulatsih said later.
Hearing that, there is a feeling that then spread in your heart. It was as if he had gotten a powerful punch that made him tremble slightly this time. For a moment he just lowered his head. This was the second time he had received such great attention from a new person, after he had known Arya before.
Seriate...
