KINARA (Tresno Soko Kulino)
The S2 Part 31
Reno POV
Six months have passed
I never thought the way of life that I experienced should be like this. Now I live in a foreign place that is very far from my family, especially my mother and two sisters.
As time passed, it did not feel like six months had passed I left my hometown and chose to live away from the people I loved.
The sky tonight reminds me of a dark story six months ago, when I decided on something in my life. Sorry? of course not only this guilt that is struggling at all times without stopping.
It was during these six months that I only once heard the news about her from mbak Vivi, sister Revan's wife, after which Vivi and I no longer communicate.
Only mother and Dimas who occasionally give news because now they live in the village grandmother far from the city and still remote. two mother cake shops are also now handed over to the wife of bang Somat and bang Rendi. No one knows if they are both adopted siblings of the mother of the village who was raised by the grandmother since childhood.
Even though I now live in a small town with my adoptive parents, I sometimes miss my mother and my two younger siblings, since I decided to move to this city six months ago, I was determined to no longer know anything about the family of my former fiancee, especially my other friends. I completely shut down my access and all my social media accounts.
There is a new account that I created just to communicate with new friends in this city, especially the new campus where I studied and achieved my goals so far.
Every chance I take Danu to the project or to the office where Danu is on duty, outside of college hours. occasionally I also on weekends I follow neighbors beside the house om Danu to the oil palm plantation and become a picker labourer even though the salary I receive is not much.
Trying to find busyness makes me slowly sometimes forget her, on this guilt.do not mean I lost my memory, but, I just don't want to be constantly plagued by endless guilt and this is what makes me a workaholic.
On weekends sometimes I go home until midnight when I'm a pick-me-up worker, but that doesn't make me feel relieved. there is still something new tomorrow that I have to do to fight with the Diktat and the lecturers.
Often om Danu and Aunt Meri reprimand me not to work maniacs, but I still can not if just stay at home without doing anything. that is why sometimes I help Aunt Meri in the kitchen if there is a cake order, market snacks or Snacks for celebration even though Aunt Meri forbids me.
"Bang, there's your friend coming, girl" said Arzan at the door.
I flinch, because I did not make an appointment with anyone on campus this afternoon.I rushed out after wearing a t-shirt I used to wear.
"Who's Zan?"
"No idea, no acquaintance really" said Arzan with his attitude.
"Ck, Mulu game, when to study you already want an exam" said I left her on the living room sofa.
I went out to the terrace apparently Andin who came, the girl from the same city as me who worked in one of the famous bars in this city as a DJ.
"Oh you ndin, do we have an appointment?" ask for pleasantries
"Eh, bang sorry to interrupt, do not make an appointment, I just want to return this, yesterday the time in this minimarket fell pas Abang nabrak mothers" said Andin handed me a small book complete with his pen.
"Oh, O Allah it fell, deserved from yesterday I look not to meet, thanks ya ndin" said I was carefree because I managed to find my little diary book.
"I.iya equally, sorry bang if I was presumptuous, excuse me to go to work because" he said shyly
"Why bang?" ask her
"Do you know where I live here?" I was curious to look closely at her slightly open appearance.
"I'm sorry bang yesterday I followed Brother home to return the book.sorry" he said honestly with his face down
"Oh yes no papa, again thank you, sorry to bother you" I said
"I.iya bang, excuse me, assalamualaikum "
"Girishal"
Andin passed down the steps of the terrace and walked over the fence.I still remember she was the girl who had scolded me a few months ago while in the hospital, in the place of martabak traders, and at a baby clothes shop when picking up Kinara and Azka at the time.
I also did not expect to be able to meet him again in this city yesterday when I was shopping for my personal needs at the minimarket not far from campus. I looked at her until she was lost behind the fence..
"New huuu gebetan huh? sexy really, change direction now hihihi" whispered Arzan then ran back inside the house knowing I would give him a special gift.
"Anj**Lo" I was upset and followed him into the house.
Just a step past the sound door of the engine om Danu motor already stopped in the front yard.I turned again and went out to open the trunk.
"Where's Ren's guest from?" todong Aunt Meri without further ado as I finished opening the luggage door.
"Huh? Auntie knew there was a guest just now?" ask me back
"Yes, Wong met at the intersection, after all it looks up at the end of the road if just out of this house" said Aunt Meri.
"Oh, that he met from Jakarta as well, happened to meet yesterday and he returned my notebook that fell in the minimarket yesterday" I explained
"Pretty look, but dear makeup Aunt does not like, kayak waiter cafe, where does she work?" ask Aunt Meri.
If it's like this, Auntie's soul must have relapsed again.....
"He worked at that bar... Auntie must know, she's a DJ" I replied
"Ooh... If you want to be my future adoptive daughter-in-law, you have to stop, like she likes you deh Ren" cerocos Aunt Meri
"Many aunt can, yes not"
"Who knows in your soul mate later hahahaha"
"Hehehe, don't care for tan"
