I MISS
GOTONG ROYONG


"Do you know who's been following us?." Ask Hari while folding back her raincoat. They now stop in front of a shophouse that happens to be closed.


"Where do I know." Karno later said. While lighting a cigarette.


"We don't need to think about it, we better get on with the journey. Go to night." Nano then said.


"Yeah?" Setya has perched on a motorcycle.


A few hours ago without them noticing before leaving mes. A pair of eyes and ears eavesdropped on the three talking. Until the talk of the three on the ears of Doni. Doni is not silent. He tells James to interrupt Setya, Karno, Nano, and Hari.


The trees one by one began to pass until Nano and the friends arrived in the fourth place village through childhood together.


It was dark, occasionally greeting people they accidentally met.


"I'm going straight home!" Exclamation Day passed leaving his friends while waving his hands.


One by one to each other's homes. It looks like Karno and Setya are still on the bike because indeed the second house is at the very end.


"Heh Setya how beautiful is that woman who captivated you?" Ask Karno kepo.


Setya just clucked with a slanted smile at the corner of his lips.


"Heh answer!" Karno asked this time with a light hand over Setya's helmet-wrapped head.


"It doesn't matter." That's all that came out of Setya's mouth.


"Then why those useless brands still bother you huh!?" Again the nosy hand of Karno lightly suhoor Setya.


Setya just shrugged his shoulders.

The family of Ari's uncle.


"Uncle, aunt. I miss eating a couch while watching tv?" Pamit Rindu wants to get away from the dining table.


"Tumbens?" Ask aunt.


"There's my favorite drama bi, can ya?" Say Rindu is ready to bring food with the tray.


"Go." Said Ari's uncle later.


Aunt Winy just got warm.


Miss is now sitting with her tray resting on her lap. Occasionally look at the tv and occasionally focus on eating it. He now eats spaghetti with a separate sauce.



"Can you please accompany me to go for a while to buy some new design materials?" Ask Linda who just came from the dining room.


"Heemmm" was only Miss's answer because her mouth was still full of food.


"Come on." Say Linda again.


Missing just nodding.


Linda's headed to her room. Prepare to go buy some of his necessities.


A few minutes later.


"R!!." Linda cried when she did not see Miss in the tv room.


"I'm waiting!?" Linda still exclaimed to call Miss.


"Yes!!!" Sahut Rindu who is already in the room.


It looks like Linda is sitting with her chin resting on her two interlocked hands, with her elbows standing firmly on the table.



"Young man, the hunt's getting late." Missing Speech.


Linda nodded.


"Papa, mama Linda's out with Miss for a second huh?" Pamit Linda to her parents.


"Assalamualaik." Say hello along with kissing the backs of their parents' hands.


"Remember not the night." Message uncle/father Linda.


Linda is now stepping along longing to approach the trunk of her car. Pink car that always accompanies linda anywhere.



Both are now in the car. Sitting side by side, Linda plays a song to accompany her journey.


Missing Room -Letto


On the leaves that come to flow gently carried the river to the end of the eye


And I'm starting to fear being carried away by love inhaling a longing that's as tight as a chest


My path was empty and I touched him, feeling warm in my heart


I held on tight and I blocked time, never minded I saw him go


I never sang and I always remembered the lightness of your eyes and the warm touch


I was afraid to look for meaning, to grow a chest-tight feeling


You just come and go, all I take for granted


The eyes closed and the heart murmured, in the room longs for us to meet


You just come and go, all I take for granted


"Sister, Brother Lin how's Nano?" Tanya misses the middle of the journey.


Linda still hasn't answered. Looking to the right looking for a gap to park his favorite car.


"Good Ri." Say Linda then. "Have you never exchanged any news with Mas Nano?" Catch Linda while taking off her confectionary belt. Because of the success of parking the car.


"Rarely. Even now it never is." Answer Miss a little down.


Both of them stepped out of the car.


Longs to walk after Linda, now miss to growl her long hair. He used a black shirt with a small sling bag in black as well. White watch on the wrist.



Until the goal Linda chose some funny ornaments that will be attached to the clothes of her work. Several sets of threads fit in the basket.


Missing just cool with her phone.


"Hi, palat👋" Short message Day


Momentarily miss puffing her matan.


"I'm home now." Day Messages


Still reluctant to retaliate. Three seconds later.


Mobile miss ringing.


"Hi best friend, why don't you return my message?" Ask Day across there.


"Emm I'm out with Brother Lin." Answer miss honestly.


"I want to take you on vacation?" Saying Day.


"Trus?" Answer Short misses.


"Yes, come on. We go with the others. Take it easy we don't go both.hahaha" Hari's voice looked cheerful.


"Are you coming home with Mas Nano too?" Tanya Rindu kepo's.


"Why you ask is always Nano. Huh! it's so annoying.hahaha" still jokingly.


"Okey my best friend will call back." Imbuh Day before turning off the phone.


Missing still staring at the dead phone.


Wait, why did Hari suddenly call me a friend?" .gumam longed in his heart.


"Thankful that she didn't ask me about my feelings for her". Lirih Rindu.


"What feeling is it?" Linda asked who suddenly appeared behind her.


"What's? I didn't say anything." Missed a little pause. "Yuk Brother Lin. It's all, huh?". Tanya Missed again when she saw Linda had brought a sizable grocery bag.


Linda nodded. Walk parallel.


I miss taking the other side so Linda won't be too bothered. As the saying goes the same weight is shouldered, the same light is toed.


It is not called gotong-royong.


Linda drove her car back to the highway. Looked longed to stare at his phone.


"Hey misses, do you think I'm a driver!" Linda's jolt made Miss look at her.


Missing the grim tau Linda meant. He put the smart thing on his lap.


Linda does not like if she is driving someone next to her even cool herself.


"Ri you have you found a suitable university?." Linda asked, still focused on looking ahead, with her hands turning the steering wheel.


"It's Brother Lin." Answer Homes. A look at Linda.


"Where?." Ask linda again.


"Fourth brother first." Answer Homes.


Now Linda seemed to understand. A few moments later the car had arrived right in the yard and then drove towards the garage.


"Ri help you put it down!." Linda Pinta.


"Hem." Longing to help Brother Lin to lower the groceries.


May the tiredness of this day pay off with blessings. Inner Linda.
