INSULATION (Troublemaker)
Chapter 4

The motorbike boarded by Erland and Maura has now arrived in front of a two-story house that belongs to both Maura's parents.

"Thanks ya nganterin me to the house," said Maura after he got off the bike.

Erland replied to Maura's words with just deheman while lowering Maura's luggage.

"Then I go in first. Thanks again and be careful on the road. Bye," said Maura then afterwards he intends to step his feet into the area of his parents' house. But not yet he stepped foot, his arm was already blocked by Erland. In ana it automatically makes Maura turn his head towards Erland.

"Why? You want to ask for gas? Then wait a minute, I'll take it." Maura's hand moved to get her wallet. And after that he gave a few pieces of money, not rupiah but dollars.

"I'm sorry I don't hold any more Indonesian money now and there's only this. You exchange yourself to the bank tomorrow. So take it." So." Maura thrust the money towards Erland which made the man flatten his face.

Maura who saw him, he seemed to swallow his saliva with great difficulty.

"Hmmm the money is less? But I just have this. Or you wait here for a minute, I go inside first to take the money inside. wait a minute okay." Once again when Maura wanted to leave, Erland again blocked his arm.

"I'm not a motorcycle taxi driver" Erland said as Maura stared at him.

"Ehhh, yes you are not a motorcycle taxi driver but at least there was wasted gasoline when you drove me here. So I'll just give you some gas money."

"No need, I can buy it with my own money. I just want to talk about what you said." Maura squinted her eyes.

"Which word am I?" said Maura who seemed to have forgotten the person she said earlier.

Erland leaned her body until her lips were beside Maura's ears, saying, "Whoever helps me, if she were a woman I would make her brother. But if the one who helped me was a man, I'd make him a husband."

Maura who heard the words from Erland earlier that made her remember the boast, her body is now pecking on the spot. Was it only because of his boasting that he had to marry a man he had just met? Moreover, he also did not know clearly the character of the man before him at this time. Is the treatment nice and gentle or is he a toxic male type? And because it makes Maura regret his words that just came out of his lips.

"Hmmm can my words be retracted again?" said Maura.

"No."

"Ehhhh no. We just got to know each other. You don't know me yet, whether I'm evil or good."

"I don't care" said Erland.

"But I'm not ready to get married. Or put it this way, we know each other first and if we fit in with each other then I say that we can do but if we do not fit in with each other, let's just say I never said words like that. How's it? You agree, right? I think you're setu--"

"Heyyy! I can't do it dong! You can't force me like this. Arkhhh! Goddamnit!" shouted Maura. But unfortunately the scream was not heard by Erland who had completely moved away from him.

"Fucking fucking shit. Why could I say that anyway. Ishhhh sucks. I don't want to marry him. Huwaaaaa Mama, Papa," said Maura as she stepped into the area of her parents' house with a stomp of her feet.

Until he stopped his legs when he was in front of the main door of the house. And with a bent face, Maura now knocked on the door of the house many times until it was opened by one of the arts.

"Lho ehh non Maura," was shocked at the art earlier when he saw Maura who had returned to his homeland after 3 years this woman did not set foot into the country of his birth.

"Hayyy bik," said Maura lethargicly. Where it made the art just frowned.

"Miss why? And we better get in first. Here's the suitcase I helped bring." Art had taken the suitcase from Maura's hand. And after the suitcase changed hands, Maura stepped into the house she always missed and she now headed to her room on the 2nd floor, followed by the art.

When Maura arrived in her room, she immediately broke down her body. Intentions when he just entered the house and look for the existence of his parents to give a surprise to Mama and her Papa and to complain if he did not want to marry the new man he meet earlier, the intention was he paused. Because he thought if the problem he got was because of his own actions that had been carelessly talking without thinking first. He was also 25 years old, not all of his problems had to ask his parents for help to solve his personal problems. But he must be able to solve his problems as much as possible without the help of his parents.

And maybe if he talked about the matter to his parents, he thought they would be on the side of agreeing because Mama and Papa often urged him to get married immediately all this time. So by thinking about it, he better solve his own problems. As a result, he will think about it later.

"Miss, are you okay?" asked art earlier after he had asked before but had not yet received an answer from Maura.

Where the question of the art made Maura who had been daydreaming, now realized from her daydream. Turning his head towards the art, he replied, "There is nothing. I'm just tired."

Art looked to breathe.

"Ohhhhh so just tired. Miss Kirain's not okay."

"Bibik calm down I'm perfectly fine. And thank you for Bibik for helping me carry my suitcase here" Maura said, displaying her fake smile

Art had nodded his head to reply to the words from Maura earlier.

"In that case, excuse me for non and have a good rest."

"Happy rest too, bik." Art was displaying his smile before he rushed out of the room of the master's son. And after the door of his room closed, Maura again pursed her lips.

"Well, what is it, when it is clearly again depressed like this, Arkhhhh." Maura picked up one of the pillows on the bed to dampen the sound of her screams so that everyone in the house would not hear the overflow from her frustration today.
