I'm Not an Old Virgin
Chapters 13.7
Norin and Bu Aminah stared at the departure of Rio's car from his yard.
" yuk Bu, we go in" Norin told his mother after Rio's car was no longer visible to them.
Ms. Aminah followed Norin from behind into her house.
"Rin !" call the mother.
Norin stopped his steps and turned to face his mother.
"why Ma'am ?"
"i assume Mr. Rio likes you do you want to be the same Mr. Rio Rin?"
Norin smiled faintly."do you have such thoughts?"
"yes I feel that Mr. Rio often notices you Rin !"
"Mom, Mr. Rio noticed Norin because he has eyes Mom. Besides, he's here just want to be in touch aja Bu, is the mother of one of the educators at the school where he works Mom!"
"let's just....,"
"you're usually a smart mom if you !" Norin cut off his mother's speech. Then, he walked towards the table where he placed his drinking water.
"yes, what's it about imaginary mother used to have a ghost like her. Who knows if mom's fantasy is coming true."
"why should Rio Bu?"
"because Mr. Rio was in addition to good morals, he was also diligent in Rin's worship. I really want to have a ghost figure like him. someday if you have a husband, see first his religion must be in faith with you Rin, his obedience and his ethics like what?"
Instantly Norin spouted out his drink and coughed.
"you are like a child just drink Rin," said Bu Aminah.
"sorry ma'am, not intentionally," Norin replied, smiling broadly.
"well, I'm going to go in the room first."
Norin nodded small.
"faith, obedient worship, good man? the mother criterion does not exist in the forced man. Duh, why did I think of him again !" Norin monologues while peeping his forehead.
Elsewhere in a magnificent house. A man without passion was gulping down a glass of wine on the balcony of his room while staring blankly at the twinkling of a small town far away.
"what are you doing there? do you know I miss you so much? come back soon I beg you." Shin muttered.
Shin gulped the wine down the toilet. It turned out that the drink was not able to forget the round-eyed woman's face for a moment. Then he threw the empty glass in his hand in any direction.
" Noriiiiiiiiinnnnn," Shin's cry echoed through the air.
Norin was aghast then opened his eyes. Sweat all over his body. He had a bad dream, the forced man committed suicide.
" astaghfirullah azim thing, I overslept yet praying isya, deserve a good sleep," murmured Norin. Then he dragged both of his legs away to the bathroom to fetch water.
After performing the Islamic prayer, Norin again laid his body on the mattress. However, it was difficult to close his eyes again.
" why did I think about him? it's Norin, don't think about the man anymore, don't expect him because he's just a guy who wants to be in a relationship without commitment and won't marry you. After all true said the mother, looking for a companion of life who is faithful and moral in order to guide you later. While Shin ?" Norin rubbed his face, he pomegranate with his own feelings.
Samar faintly his ears heard his mother's knock and call outside the door. Norin blinked his eyes that felt sticky, because last night he could only close his eyes around three in the morning and in the end Norin passed his dawn service.
Then Norin got up from his bed and staggered towards the door of the room.
"mother's daughter really woke up in the afternoon, did you stay up last night Rin?" ask the mother who is neat with the teacher uniform.
"sorry Mom!" norin said with seventy percent awareness.
Madam Aminah breathed heavily. At first he wanted to ask his daughter to take him to school, but, because his son looked still sleepy he just undid.
"mom wants to go out, I've made you breakfast at the table."
"thank you, ma'am."
"yes, I'm leaving first!"
Norin, who was leaning his head against the doorpost, gave a small nod.
Shortly after his mother's departure, a rumbling sound was heard as a sign that his stomach was asked to be filled by food. Norin undoes his intention to go back to sleep after his mother leaves. He then went to the bathroom to clean his body before eating because Norin did not usually eat before bathing.
After finishing bathing and dressing at home, Norin immediately approached the dining table that had been served a plate of vegetable fried rice plus eggplok. Again Norin remembered the narrow-eyed man. Vegetable fried rice was one of Shin's favorite foods as well. Vegetable fried rice was also the first time he ate processed Norin.
For four days Norin was in his village. Usually Monday is a very busy day for Norin, busy with a job at the factory. But this time, he leha leha at home became an unemployed man.
"the housework is all done with mom, and now I don't have any activities. Did I go to Susi's house once, I haven't seen her in a long time" Norin muttered.
After that, Norin was ready to visit the house of his playmate and Junior High School friend on foot. Susi's house is a little far away on foot. However, she still lives in the same village as Norin's parents' house.
Norin walked step by step, down the streets of the village filled with small pebbles, passing one house to another. Not a few pairs of eyes that pay attention to the beautiful and graceful girl who is walking on foot somewhere.
From a distance, Norin saw a fairly large stall. He wanted to stop by the stall first to buy food or snacks as a hand for his son Susi later.
Norin approached the shop and saw some people who were shopping watching his arrival. After arriving at the stall, Norin smiled a thin smile and greeted the person who was staring at him without a blink.
" assalamualaikum, sir, ma'am !"
" ha'alaikum salam," they said together as his eyes could not be separated from the view towards Norin.
" who is this guy? what are the new inhabitants of this village? ask a middle-aged woman.
Norin smiled at the woman.
"i am Norin Bu, the son of Bu Aminah" replied Norin.
"Norin his son, the teacher of Aminah, who lived in the city? oala pangling I neng, because more beautiful aja," said the woman.
"ohh, Norin Sifa's sister who is the same as Susi? not married yet and how many children do you have now?" ask another woman.
Norin smiled faintly at the woman's question.
"alhamdulilah not yet Ma'am!"
"do you mean you don't have any kids yet?"
"not married yet!"
"what? serious neng? isn't this neng norin the same age as Susi huh? not married yet! Susi has two children."
"the average girl who works in the city forgets to marry Mom, even though they are not married but usually married by mom," another woman chimed in and laughed loudly to make other mothers laugh.
Norin was silent hearing their laughter.
"oh, it's still early morning already huddled Mom mother. step aside first Mom, Mom is not done shopping, now it's Eneng's turn, Eneng want to buy what ? ask the owner of the shop.
" that's why Miss Irma!"
"not ngusir Mom, Eneng is also willing to shop please give way."
"oh yes Mom, I want to buy Lima canned milk, biscuits that are five packs, biscuits that are there five and a pack of Snacks that is Mom!" Norin pointed to one still-sealed plastic Snack that was loosened below.
"many very buy the food neng, what do you do ?"
"for Susi Bu's son, I want to play at his house."
"oh yes, kasian know the life of Susi and her children," said the mother of the shop owner while her hands were busy taking Norin's order.
"kasian why Ma'am ? ask Norin curiously.
"yes kasian aja neng life like a shortage. her husband rarely went home neng, her understanding of work kenek truck. continue his debt has been piled up here neng, almost every day owed. but Susi's mother is tough and if the big talk continues."
" oh, is that so ma'am.yaudah ma'am please totalin all how many ?" Norin ended the story of the owner of the stall, he did not want to join in raising people.
" it's two hundred and ten thousand neng."
then Norin spent the money with the amount and then went away from the stall after saying goodbye to the people who were there.
Norin continued his way down the red dirt road and if the rain was definitely sticky to the footwear but the streak today the weather was bright without rain so it was safe to pass.
And finally Norin arrived in a small house with half-brick, half-woven bamboo. Many of the weeds that grow in the yard are like homes that are never taken care of.
Norin was standing at the door that looked as porous as eating termites. However, before he knocked on the door there was a complicated sound like the sound of a skillet being thrown. Then there was the voice of a debating man and a crying child inside the little house.
" did Susi fight with her husband again?" Norin.
Norin then abandoned his intentions. He does not want to interfere in the household affairs of others. However, before he turned around the body of the door opened forcefully and it appeared that a tall, thin man with random hair was standing in the doorway staring at him without a blink and gaping mouth.
"who would you like to find ?" asked the man nervously while his eyes could not be separated from the view of the figure of a beautiful woman who was gracefully standing outside the door.
