Love In Silent's
Carpets

Finally, while waiting for the object I ordered, I also chatted with the merchant's mother.

"mesakke temen sampeyan nduk, wes urip nang negorone wong lio keep koyo ngene difficult situation !"

*so sorry you son, already living in the country of people plus your difficult situation like this !

"eh .. what is not ma'am, I became more experience of life thanks to my fate like this !" I said denying it while smiling

and soon the online motorcycle that I ordered came too

"in the name of miranda's mother ?"

"yes, I ordered it !"

"eh . yusuf !"said the mother suddenly greeting the man, I was immediately surprised and looked at the two of them alternately

"mom knows this ?"

"he yo even knows to nok wong mas yusuf iku iku tonggoku loh !"ablaze

*I am clearly aware of my son, he is my neighbor !

"oh, that's it !" I just know enough

"let's go mbak ! this is the helmet please wear first !"said mas mas earlier

"oh yes!, let's go !"

"yes !"

all the way to my house, I just kept quiet and really didn't say anything

"already to mbak, this is really the house of mbaknya !"

"eh no mas, my house is next to it again !"

"i'm sorry, I'm sorry !"

"yes no matter what, this is the price !"

"yes, thank you !"

"yes same as !"

the next day as usual I did my routine activities selling in the market, and when I was about to return home, Joseph was waiting for me at the entrance of the market, looking at me who had just come out and walked towards him, at first I thought he was waiting for his customer, but it turned out that without my guessing actually he was waiting for me to get out of the market.

"take !" at once he immediately called me, as soon as I pretended not to recognize him

"yes ?"

"want to go home, right ?"

"yes !"

"let me just take it !"

"eh but mas I can .. "

"this is my helmet !" he said, giving me a passenger helmet

"mas but I haven't ordered ojek yet !"

"yes, I know how to !" he said while carrying the medicine basket I brought and put it on the front side of his duck bike.

"have I boarded, what can I make of, on I have to order another ojek !" mummy lirih

after that day, the next day was the same, he was always at the exit door and standby waiting when I came out of the market, until finally I began to be curious about his behavior and tried to ask what other intentions of the attitude he was showing me at this time.

"take !" he shouted while waving both hands

"aisss.why is he waving like that, make you ashamed, other people will see me all !"it seems like my face has already turned red from holding back the embarrassment

"that's her husband, is it ?!" said a woman who was beside me

"ha ?!! what !, ma'am ..not that my sister is !"

"oh I guess her husband !"

"ahahaha not !"

"that's what I told you !"

"oh, that's it !"

"yes ahaha !"I said with a wry smile

"his sister is obedient !"

"yes?. ah yes my sister is very obedient with her brother .. with her mother also obedient kok!, the talk was mbak said to pay attention to me and my sister every day ya ?"

"oh yes !"

"indeed not busy, the sale is also here right?, especially not selling quail eggs, certainly busy peeling eggs right if anyone buys !"

"oh busy as it is I can still see here and there !"

"oh, is that it!, did she have a husband ?"

"already !"

"his husband works ?"

"yes, work !"

"where does it work ?"

"work in the market too, with me !"

"seriously mbak ?"

"yes .. Well that's my husband, he's the bouncer of the motor park !"

"oh that .. then do not often see here and there mbak, fear that the husband will be jealous or could be misunderstood !" I said somewhat insinuatingly, at once the look on his face changed and he instantly fell silent as soon as I satirized him

"then I say back home first yes mbak, hopefully the merchandise is always crowded !" I said with a smile, then I walked up to the boy who according to the man named Yusuf and immediately went home between him.

when I got home, I went down and paid the price.

"this is the price !"I said while giving money as a sheet of 20 thousand to him

"don't need to !" he said while rejecting the money I gave, and instantly I immediately knitted my eyebrows in annoyance.

"what do you mean, mas ?"

"i wanted to give you a free ride !"

"nothing is free in this world !"

"there is a mbak !" he took a deep breath and breathed it out of his mouth

"it's free mbak !"

"hah .. I mean the motor gasoline you use will use the money to buy !"

"yes the hell mbak, but not what's really mbak, I happen to have an efficient gasoline engine !"

"as far as you go, this is take the money !" I put the money in his jacket pocket by force

"and again .. tomorrow don't come and wait for me out of the market!, because I'm not going to sell any more herbs now !"

"why is mbak ?" without hesitation he asked me with his face that did not feel guilty at all, seeing his reaction that way I just threw a pakem smile at him.

"what because of me !?"

"if you already know why you're still here too !?"

"yes, thank you for the fare, I want to pay your respects, assalamualaikum !"

"whalaikumsalam !"

the next day I decided to take a holiday selling herbs first to convince my speech yesterday that I really will not sell herbal medicine again, he said, maybe I will take time off for about 3 days just the next, because if I take a week off can my customers can switch to another seller.

in the middle of the day when the sun was shining hot I heard the sound of many people talking near my house, even the voice sounded like someone calling me, then when I opened the front door of my house it turned out that there was only the mother who was chatting with other people. at first I did not realize who he was chatting with but when I looked carefully his posture was somewhat similar to that of the carpenter Yusuf. and when I was watching him, the young man looked at me and smiled.

"miranda's broom !" he said with a smile, while the mother of the owner of the front room of my house also looked at me.
