"Here, Ning. I was waiting for you." Nilam waved to see Bening who had entered into the bamboo fence that surrounded his residence.
"Sorry, Lam. I was in the rice field first, bring food for the father."
"Yes, no papa. We'll talk in my room." Nilam pulled out Bening's hand, taking her to her best friend's room. The two now sit on the carpet, cross-legged.
"So you're really sure you want to come with me to Jakarta, Ning?" ask Nilam with a serious look. Bening nodded his head. He was determined to go to Jakarta. Savings that are not how much will be used as a cost may also look for cheap costs in Jakarta later.
"I'm sure, Lam."
"Are you talking to your uncle and aunt?" tanya Nilam mentions both parents Bening.
Bening did not immediately answer but then he shook his head slowly. He may have trouble getting permission from both parents. However, Bening will try to speak well and give understanding to them.
"Well, how not yet? If you want to wander, you must get permission from your parents. I dare not take you if there is no permission from uncle and aunt."
"I tried to talk to them tonight, Lam. Actually already from yesterday want to say, just because the Goddess is still in recovery, I do not want to make the same father mother to mind. Tonight's the perfect time, Goddess is better."
"I understand. May aunt and uncle give permission yes, Ning." Nilam grasps a clear fingers.
Bening nodded slowly. He himself was still not sure it would be that easy to get permission. However, he can certainly give understanding to his parents tonight. Bening really was determined to migrate to the city of people. Although many of his other friends invited him to go abroad and become TKW, but Bening refused. It is better to go to Jakarta, not to go out of your own country. Want to go home was not too troublesome later.
Finally, Bening told Nilam to go home after chatting a lot of things including a conversation about Dani who turned out to be currently studying in Jakarta but is now on semester break and choosing to go home. From his conversation with Nilam, Bening a little more so know, if Dani is an idol in their village. Especially after many people know, that the young man was a student at a famous university in Jakarta, a university that had become a goal after graduating from school.
Along the way home, Bening kicked slowly the scattered gravel. Incidentally, one of the pebbles he kicked hit someone. Someone seemed to complain.
"Sorry, Bang, I didn't mean it." Bening quickly approached the young man who had just stopped by in his mind.
"Eh, you again." Dani greets Bening who is still downcast shy and unpleasant.
"Sorry, Bang," repeated Bening. Dani laughed and broke her hair, making the girl shake and dodge.
"The thing you threw was a mountain rock, then I was angry," said Dani who no doubt made Bening smile as well. Dani was fascinated, staring at the natural beauty of the village girl figure.
"Stay, I'm not good." Bening walked slowly with Dani accompanying beside him.
"Well, do you want me to apologize?" ask Dani to make an offer. His one eyebrow raised, making Bening mesmerized for a moment.
"How'd it go?" ask Bening plain.
"There is a waterfall next to our village. I want to go there tomorrow, you can help me, right?"
He seemed to bite his lips slowly, thinking. He was never alone with a man.
"I'm not a bad person" Dani said as if he knew what he was thinking.
Hearing that, Bening became unpleasant. Finally he nodded.
"We met on this street. I'll wait ten o'clock."
Bening nodded again then the two parted ways as Dani was about to meet her friends. He waved to Bening who only smiled blush. Bening smiled again, her heart was flowery, could she be in love?
