ENDLESS HALLWAY
CHAPTER 37: I WILL WAIT

"It's okay!" Rahmawati. "If you want to meet me, just come to school!" Rahmawati pointed at her school not far from the shop. "I came home at half-six and entered at half-one" Rahmawati looked at Farel sharply. "I hope you come to my school often!" Further again.

"But ..., were you picked up by your driver?" Reply Farel.

"Not a problem!" Rahmawati lowered her head. Suddenly, he looked up at Farel with his head.

"If you don't go to my school, chances are I'll go to your house!" Rahmawati said for sure.

"Why are you acting like that?" Farel did not understand.

"Because we've become friends!" Rahmawati replied no longer shy.

"Aren't you a lot of friends?" Farel.

"Ordinary friends are many, but if a close friend does not exist!" Rahmawati gave a small laugh, indeed she said the truth.

"Are you not pushing yourself too much?" Farel.

"You mean?" Rahmawati widened her eyes.

"I am a poor young man!" Answer Farel. "Maybe you'll be disappointed!" Further.

"Reluctance because one's poverty is a mistake, living the pursuit of luxury will be self-defeating." Rahmawati said while drinking. "For me, what matters is happiness and harmony and understanding!" Rahmawati smiled sweetly.

"If you're already suffering from poverty, maybe you'll regret it." Farel smiled.

"The regret of suffering poverty is not a commendable act, but rather betraying the reality that should be faced with fortitude and inner strength" Rahmawati said without blinking her eyes. "Related by a wrong or sinful act is commendable, let alone determined to repent!" Rahmawati's eyes shone brightly.

"It is good to say, but..., will man really repent?" Ask Farel.

"The time is waiting!" Rahmawati answered seriously.

"What time is waiting?" Farel.

"Yes! The time does not forgive the unrepentant, but waits for the determined to repent!" Rahmawati continued with a fairly broad mind.

"You mean?" Farel.

"Remember! The passing of time is very fast, for those who are determined to repent are still hunted, but, for those who do not want to repent means they will take sin before Almighty God!" Rahmawati.

"Just what you say!" Farel held up his thumb. Then he said in a soft voice. "Rahma, it's time to go home, I'm afraid your parents will be restless!" Farel continued to remind.

"All right!" Rahmawati replied, then she said softly: "Farel, don't forget to my school!"

"Yes!" Farel replied briefly.

So they separated, Rahmawati took a taxi home, while Farel took an ojek. Arriving home, he saw Amanda watering flowers, as soon as Amanda saw Farel had gone home, her heart spontaneously stirred.

"Sister Farel!" Amanda approached. "Eat already?" Further.

"Not yet!" Answer Farel.

"I prepared ya?" Amanda again.

"Thank you, Amanda, no need." Farel.

"It's okay, Brother Farel!" Amanda rushed into the house and went straight to the kitchen.

"Yes, Brother Farel is home!" Amanda yelled at her mother.

"Home home?" Ask mother.

"Yes!" Answer Amanda.

"Fastly prepare a meal for Farel!" Her mother was cleaning the bathroom.

"Yes, mom!" Amanda quickly prepared a meal, after finishing her off to the living room, but Farel was not in the living room, rushed Amanda to the yard of the house, Farel was standing while looking at the flower plants.

"Sister Farel, eat first!" Amanda shouted as she approached Farel.

"What a beautiful rose!" Farel pointed to a rose that was pink.

"Sister Farel happy roses?" Ask Amanda.

"Happy!" Farel stroked the rose.

"If Brother Farel is happy, I will plant roses again!" Amanda smile.

"Are the flowers here Amanda took care of her?" Ask Farel.

"Yes!" Answer Amanda.

"Truly painstakingly Amanda took care of the flowers that were here!" Farel. Sweeping Amanda heard Farel's praise, her face flushed red and her heart was overjoyed.

"Sister Farel eat first." Amanda.

"Have you eaten?" Ask Farel.

"It's over!" Answer Amanda.

"Not yet!" Just answer Amanda.

"Then, I'll wait for your papah to come home, just eat." Farel.

"Not to wait!" Amanda. "Father maybe the new night comes home, Brother Farel just eat first." Amanda Clear.

"Have you eaten?" Ask Farel again.

"Already! Brother Farel eat only, everything I have provided." Reply Amanda.

"Thank you, Amanda!" Farel went inside and went straight to the kitchen.

"Tante, eat!" Farel said to his aunt who had not cleaned the bathroom.

"I've eaten!" Reply tantenya. "Oh yeah! Hows it? Got a job?" Ask tantenya.

"Not aunty." Farel started eating.

"It's hard to get a job" Tante kept brushing the bathroom. "But, don't give up, slowly too!"

"Yes, auntie!" Farel chewed while answering.

After eating, Farel returned to the living room, sitting down and reading a magazine. Amanda approached him with a smile.

"Sister Farel has eaten?" Ask.

"It's over!" Answer Farel.

"Sister Farel got a job?" Amanda sat in front of Farel, looking at Farel with glowing eyes.

"Not yet!" Farel took a breath, at that moment he suddenly remembered Rahmawati. "Work has not been able to, instead, meet a girl who is still in school." Farel.

"Sister Farel has met the girl who is still in school?" Wonderful! Amanda's heart was sliced after hearing Farel's words. "Who is the girl's name and what is she?" Amanda asked.

"His name is Rahmawati and she is very beautiful!". Farel replied without paying attention to Amanda's behavior.

"Then I congratulate Brother Farel!" Amanda smiled sadly, she bit her lips, it was not noticed by Farel. "Hopefully the girl will be loyal to Brother Farel!" Amanda again.

"Amanda, we're just getting acquainted, not making love. Why should he be loyal to me?" Farel.

"He wants to get acquainted with Brother Farel means he is in love, otherwise, where might he want to get acquainted, after all it is natural that Brother Farel is loved by a girl, if not, because Brother Farel is so good and handsome!" Amanda Clear.

"Amanda, you're a child, you shouldn't talk about it, your lessons will be interrupted." Farel.

"Study time must learn! We should be able to tell the difference in time, don't crave anything too much." Answer Amanda.

"Amanda, why do you think so?" Farel.

"I have a mature mind!" Answer Amanda.

"So is it also accepted?" Farel smiled as he looked towards Amanda, suddenly his eyes clashed at the bulge on Amanda's chest. Whoa! Mira has started to grow up, deserves a different kind of mind with the little girls. Farel thought with a smile, he hurriedly looked elsewhere. "Amanda, you're still immature, it's better not to think too much about things that aren't, I'm afraid you'll be damaged by your own thoughts!" Farel.

"Maybe I have grown up? I don't know it myself either!" Amanda said as she stared into a distant place. "I don't think grandiosely, I always think on the right business, so I'm sure that I won't be damaged by that thought." Reply Amanda is sure.

Farel gawking...! "Busyeeet!" He said in his heart. "What girl is Amanda?" Farel scratched his un-itchy head.

"Sister Farel, what class is that girl?" Ask Amanda suddenly.

"Third grade High School!" Answer Farel.

"Rice from a rich family?" Ask Amanda.

"Yes!" Answer Farel.

"How's he?" Ask Amanda.

"Wooh! Amanda!" Farel shakes. "I do not yet know his nature and character, for we have just met." Clearly again.

"Sister Farel, I hope the girl will always be loyal to Brother Farel!" Suddenly Amanda lowered her head, as if she was thinking of something.

"Amanda, I also hope that later if you have grown up, you will find a good and handsome young man!" Farel said in a soft and earnest voice.

"I can't possibly fuck any young man either!" Amanda lifted her head. Then he looked at Farel with a strange look in his eyes, coincidentally Farel was also staring at him, so their eyes clashed with each other, Farel smiled.

"Amanda, where is it possible?" Reply Farel.

"Everything in the world will be possible, including my words!" Amanda said solemnly, she looked towards Farel without blinking her eyes. "I hope Brother Farel will get the loyalty of love from that girl!" Further.

"Amanda, don't like to offend love, you're still not an adult right." Farel is back.

"Hopefully one day, Brother Farel will call me an adult!" Amanda.

"Three or five more years, I'd call you an adult!" Farel smiled.

"I'll wait!" Amanda got up from her seat, then she headed to her room, she still had a glance towards Farel.
