High School Bridal Romance
One Semester Missed

The month changed with the month, it did not feel that Elkan and Mira had taken a semester of college in Australia. Winter holidays are coming. Of course both are very happy because they can finish the first semester with their own likes and sorrows.

Start adapting to full English lectures and then pre-test and test to be done. In addition, it is also a nuisance that comes from Rosaline. However, both of them can complete this semester.

"It's finished one semester, Honey .. There are still seven semesters left," said Elkan.

Yes, it was the last day they took the test. Relieved to be able to take the semester exam, but there are still papers they have to work on and collect next week. Even though one roof, one room, for business doing problems, will still be done alone.

"There is still one paper to be done and collected, sister," Mira replied.

"Yes, it's still a week, right? Where are you going on this holiday? Traveling or what?" ask Elkan to his wife.

Mira then looked at her husband. "The holiday is quite long yes, Kak .. actually want to go back to Indonesia. Kangen Mama and Papa," replied Mira.

Yes, six months without meeting her parents makes Mira feel homesick with Mama and her Papa. Moreover, winter holidays can last up to two months. It is actually quite good if you go back to Jakarta.

"Just be back next semester, Honey. This holiday we were in Australia first. A walk. Exploring the Kangaroo state can both, too," replied Elkan.

Hearing what her husband said, Mira turned lethargic. While in Australia, indeed the place they explore not much. In fact they have more time for college and breaks in the unit alone. Only Sydney area they visited.

"Well, when you miss Papa and Mama" said Mira honestly.

It's not that Elkan doesn't know Mira's feelings. Elkan knew very well that Mira also misses Mama and Papa. Sometimes if it is so long, after the videocall with Mama and her Papa must be Mira crying. He realized that it was not easy to live away from home. Mira is also adapting. However, sometimes the longing can come by itself and make Mira cry.

"Don't sulk .. You said, we should save for the future too. Promise, next semester we go back to Jakarta," said Elkan.

Walk from campus to their unit. Mira chose silence. In fact, she was almost crying too. Not because his wishes were not obeyed by Elkan, but because of the longing that accumulated with the parents.

Once he arrived at his unit, then Mira shed her tears. Not taking off her bag yet, Mira was already crying first. Meanwhile, Elkan immediately hugged his wife. Not angry, but Elkan knew it was an emotion that should have been evaporated. In addition, Elkan will also accompany his wife. After all, they are also a couple who should share emotions.

"I'm not kambek, Kak .. only miss Mama and Papa. Like a little boy, huh?" mira said by hiding her face in Elkan's chest. Letting a few drops of her tears wet her husband's chest.

"Nothing. Yeah, we're young too. You just want 19 years. Naturally, my Honey," replied Elkan.

Elkan fully understood Mira. However, his wife is still very young, only 19 years old. Emotions can be like that. What is certain is that Elkan, who is more mature two years than him, will try to become a more mature figure. Can be a husband and friend to his wife. Sometimes, circumstances also force a person to become a more mature figure. Elkan just thought that he was more mature even if only 2 years, he would try to keep up with Mira.

"Focus to finish the paper first yes, Honey," said Elkan again.

"Yes, Brother .. sorry well," said Mira who now still hugs Elkan.

"Not to apologize. Just relax, honey. We spent a semester together. We will welcome our first winter. Cold-cold is getting better to warm each other," said Elkan.

Instantly, Mira pinched her husband's waist which made Elkan complain and slowly pinched his wife's pinch. Because Mira's pinch is small and it feels like an ant bite. However, it succeeded in making Mira laugh. I love to touch her husband.

"Ouch, sick, Honey. I just know now that you are a hobby nyubitin," said Elkan.

"So you continue to mode .. lest not do not want to nganterin return to Jakarta because it is Kak?" ask Mira.

Elkan chuckled amusedly and then tightened his embrace. Gemes with Mira. "Welcome our first winter, Honey. I'll see you in the snow, Honey. Ice skating together. When else to try? If we go back to Jakarta, we will not be able to enjoy the beautiful season" said Elkan.

"Do you see the kangaroo?" say Mira now.

Elkan quickly nodded his head. "Byeah, we'll see kangaroos together. You want to go anywhere, will always take you. We had a two-month vacation. Enjoy it first, Honey. Later if you have finished college and also married and have children, the time together like this will decrease" said Elkan.

"Yes first, sister," replied Mira.

"Yes, dong .. Halal dating is delicious, Honey. Which other delights do you deny trying? Excluding adultery, excluding immoral acts. Because we are united in marriage. There is a side to his worship" replied Elkan.

When Mira was about to reply to her husband, apparently there was a phone and it was Mira's cell phone that rang. Therefore, Mira immediately shifted the green phone icon on her phone screen, and saw Mama Marsha who was now contacting her.

"Hello, Assalamualaikum, Mama" said Mira as soon as she received the call.

"Halo ... waalaikumsalam, Ra ... what's new?" ask Mama Marsha.

"Just finished the last lecture, Ma .. had a test on campus, but this has come home" Mira replied again.

"Oh, this ... Mama will send you food. What else do you want sent? Instant noodles again?" ask Mama Marsha.

Mira was smiling. "Yes, instant noodles and even pastries, Ma" Mira replied.

"Alright, later in the afternoon Mama and Papa will send it well. Don't eat too much noodles, Ra. Later you and Elkan become unwell. It's just carbohydrates" said Mama Marsha.

Honestly listening to the voice of Mama and also reminded by Mama like this makes Mira miss with Mama. The young lady slowly lowered her face, and her tears came back. Missed her mother again.

"How healthy, Ma?" mira asked, trying to hold back her crying.

"Healthy dong ... Your father is always healthy. Age is only age. However, your father is so young right," Mama Marsha replied with a laugh.

"Send greetings from Mira to Papa yes, Ma ... Mira is very happy with Papa," he said now.

"You crying?" ask Mama Marsha. It was because of hearing Mira's voice change.

There, Mira has no power to answer Mama Marsha's questions. Until finally, Elkan who asked for Mira's cellphone and then began to speak through the phone.

"Mama, this is Elkan, Ma" said Elkan.

"Yes, El ... What's wrong?" ask Mama Marsha.

"She's Mama just crying, Ma. Kangen Mama and Papa," Elkan replied with a slight laugh. At least Elkan just wanted Mama-in-law not to worry.

"Oh, Mama's son is missing yah," replied Mama Marsha.

"It's okay, Ma. Naturally, it has been six months," said Elkan.

"Thank you, El .. Please take care of Mira well. Hopefully at a good time, we can meet. Happy winter break. Mama and Papa also miss you both very much" said Mama Marsha.

When the phone was done, Elkan hugged Mira again. He rubbed the top of Mira's head. Calm his wife. It's homesick, home kangen, and parents kangen. Very reasonable thing happened.
