Liebe Zu Maiza's
Not As Bad As I Think

"Radea, what are you doing?" manya panic.

"I didn't do anything Maiza, I just closed the door d-"

"And locked it!" I am fierce and ready to rebel if one more step Radea dares to approach me.

"Call Maiza, I'm just kidding." A moment of silence, I was on standby, "Hmmm .. You coward, that's just been a freak out." Radea turned the door lock back to the right. My heart shook violently. I can't talk anymore.

"Yes, take a shower and clean yourself up. Women's clothes are a lot in the closet, please choose the one you want to wear!" he gave me a smile of victory, managed to make me in a state of disrepute. I don't understand Radea's intention to do this to me.

"I don't want to take a shower, I want to go home." I began to dare to say more forcefully.

"After that I'll drive you home or wherever you want." Radea set foot to leave the room and behind me.

"I don't want to, take me home now" my voice that was a bit loud stopped Radea's steps. He was silent and turned back to me, he stared intently, I was worried.

"Are you afraid of getting angry from your mom or dad? Take it easy I'll be in charge. Now you clean up. I wouldn't have taken you home if I was still catapulting like this. Yes I live first, if there is a need, just push the button near the bed later Aunt will come" he said again while showing the button located beside the bed.

Radea then came out of the room and closed it from outside. This time Radea made me completely lost my nerve. His behavior is very natural as without theatrics or indeed Radea has a hidden desire after this, I don't know.

I approached the light purple-colored hairy sofa that was in front of the bed and opened the window curtain. From where I sat, I could see the atmosphere of the city tonight with thousands of colorful lights below. Pak Anwar's house which may also be Radea's house is located in a rather high place so that the city scenery is very easy to enjoy.

A lot of women's clothes in the closet Radea said earlier. Whom does this room belong to, does Radea have a sister and this beautiful room is her room? Or is this room Radea's own, but why so many women's outfits? This room is suitable indeed for women, sweet wall hangings, fur carpets and fur sofas in addition to typical women's trinkets. Ah, too many riddles about Radea and Mr. Anwar. After this I don't know what else Radea will do to me. That masculine-faced man almost made this heart stop working.

Very tasty life Radea, he lives in a luxurious house with servants who are ready to serve his needs. If only I were still in the village, I would also enjoy life like Radea in the arms of Mama and Anaya. Indeed I am not rich like Radea because it is comfortable that can not be juxtaposed with money, but at least I do not need to play hide and seek with one of the residents of the house, as I experience now with Afni.

I do not know how long I struggled with my own thoughts until finally the door was knocked from the outside.

"Can I come in Non?" female voice. I hurried to open the door.

"Non, we've been waiting for Mr. Radea downstairs!" said the middle-aged woman in front of me while waiting. The faint smile he gave me.

"Where is Bi?"

Under Non, in the dining room. Let's Non us down!" bring me. I followed his trail down the stairs. I just paid close attention to the contents of the room after the room that was passed, among all the wall hangings in the form of paintings and calligraphy, there was one family photo that was not intact, he said, in the photo Radea and Mr. Anwar are sitting in a park with a loose smile. Where did Mama Radea go? There were no pictures of women I found.

Radea was already waiting in the chair with delicious menu-menu dishes in front of her. A maid poured drinking water on the glass in front of her. He greeted me with an unfriendly face.

"You didn't change your clothes?" half the questioner interrogated.

I didn't answer. I just bowed in front of him.

"Well, come sit down and eat with me!"

I'm still standing there, not a word out of this mouth.

"Come on Maiza, let's eat. After this I'll take you home. I promise, there's no more unpleasant events like that." Radea smiled at me.

I approached the dining table and sat in front of him. Radea filled my dinner plate with rice, "What side dish do you want?"

"Anything." My answer was flat, I had absolutely no appetite in a state of heart that was muddled with thoughts going nowhere.

Radea filled my plate with a lot of food, added grilled fish and tomato sauce in another plate and placed in front of me.

Radea started eating voraciously. Sometimes he looks at me and smiles. I also scooped up the food on my plate. There was no sound other than the sound of spoons and forks coming into contact with the plate and the sound of the mouth chewing food.

"May ... ."

"Emmm ... Why is Maiza, the food is not good?" Radea did not see me, her eyes remained focused on the food she was eating.

"No, the food is good. Emmm ... After this you're serious about taking me home?" I asked doubtfully for fear that he had no appetite for food.

"Emmm .. yes eat," Radea continued to chew her food.

"Recycle the food Maiza." And Radea's plate food was clean in an instant.

"My body is too full and-"

"Can't mutazzir Maiza." Radea's speech made my appetite struggling because I only remember the children of the streets of the city's streets who grimace, showing used cans on every vehicle that was stuck with red lights.

***

Radea finally drove me home. I sat sweetly beside him. Radea's kind attitude to the people in her home restores my belief that Radea is indeed a good person. I was escorted home without any strange things happening in his house like I had in mind. The fear is beginning to disappear.

"Oh yes Maiza, what kind of child are you?" I haven't been able to answer Radea to reconnect her question, "You're not the kid here, are you?" Radea did not ask, she only asked for support for her opinion.

"I'm Radea's village, I'm new to this town" I replied accordingly.

"I guessed from the beginning. That's why I deliberately scared you ha .. ha .. ha ... so who are you here with? I mean who are you staying with?"

"You're so mean. Emmm .. I'm with Auntie, Mama's sister." The atmosphere began to melt, and my tension had disappeared along with the disappearance of the strangeness of Radea who had made me mess up.

"Oh, were you treated like that?"

"My heart oath almost stopped, the intention really did make me parno kayak earlier." I have dared to face Radea.

"You're funny, I'm glad to see it." Radea enjoys her irony apparently.

"Eh, by the way know the address of Jalan Kenanga II number 3 from where? You've been around town a lot?"

"I've been there before."

"You mean?" Radea turned to me and knitted her brows.

"Yes I've been to Mr. Anwar Baddu's house before, he's Papa you right?"

"Can't you?" Radea was curious about my relationship with her Papa who she admitted was busy and never had time to take care of the affairs of a small person like me.

"The story is long." I told Radea everything without the slightest bit left, and the burden in my head was beginning to diminish.

"That means you're at home with Afni?"

[Jeez .. I leaked a secret.]
