Love of a Nausea
19

      In the afternoon, water spots began to fall from the sky. Cloudy and dark. The occasional sound of lightning is heard. Maya runs towards the online taxi she booked while covering her head with a briefcase.

"Huft ...." He sighed softly, as his body was already sitting in the back seat of the car.

The car then drove towards its destination. He was going to Adji's house to deliver his father's message last night.

He looked out the window, the road was crowded because of the heavy rain. It was seen that people were running to save themselves from the water that came down in a row. Avoiding their bodies from getting wet. They take shelter on the outskirts of shops or roadside stops.

His eyes were fixed on a motorbike that stopped right next to the car he was riding in. Two beings of opposite type were sitting on it. The man rubbed the hand of the woman that was coiled around his waist. The woman slid her head behind her back. How romantic. Maya smiled slightly, then looked down.

It became a thought, why did he not buy Adji just a motorbike. So that Adji can narik ojek and no longer be a scavenger. Isn't the result quite than having to look for used bottles all day. The bonus is that he can ask for a work shuttle, and a rich hug of the couple.

The journey is still long, because of endless traffic jams. The clock on the wrist points to the number six. Adzan magrib's voice rang out from a distance. Maya looks agitated. I don't know what time Adji's home will be. While outside the rain is getting heavier and there are no signs yet of stopping.

Until the fork in the road, finally the flow of traffic began smoothly, it turns out that what makes the traffic jam is the motorists who shelter under the overpass.

Fifteen minutes later, the car he was riding in arrived in front of the alley of Adji's house. Maya had to go down and through the alley without an umbrella. He forgot, because in a hurry the umbrella was not carried and left in the drawer of the work table.

After paying the fare, he got out, took off his high heels, and ran into the alley while covering his head with a bag.

Arriving at the door of Adji's house, he managed to catch his breath, while rubbing his wet clothes.

Tok to tok.

"Assalamualaikum, Adji," he called.

Shortly after, the door opened.

"Waalaikumsalam, Ma'am?"

Adji was wide-eyed to see his beloved woman coming with a soaked body, where Maya's underwear was clearly printed.

"Come in, Ma'am," he said nervously.

Adji tells Maya to come in and sit down, while he goes to the room to pick up a towel and give it to Maya.

Maya rubbed the towel over her head, then covered her body.

"Hatchim!"

"Where the hell is it? How rain?"

"From the office, Dji. Hatchiem." Maya sneezed back.

"So, I'll make some tea first. Change of clothes."

"I didn't bring a change of clothes."

"Wear my shirt."

"No, kegedean."

"From the cold."

"But it's wet inward."

"Well, don't change it, do you want to wear mine?"

"Nake it."

"Hehe." Adji got up from sitting down, returned to the room. He took a dress he had never worn. The clothes Maya bought first. After handing the shirt to Maya, she walks into the kitchen making some warm tea for Maya.

"What the hell, Ma'am to belain here raining? Kangen huh?" ask Adji while teasing.

"What the hell? It's not rainy season, but it's still raining. Wonderful."

"Bak, rain is a mercy from Allah. Grateful to be given grace. Even the time of mustajab to pray one of them when it rains."

"Yes, yeah. I'm just here to get papa's message. How many people do you want? Family or neighbors?"

"Wow, how many yes, Ma'am. At least not one hundred. Citizens here doang. My family is also all far away."

"Do you want to support your family?"

"Eum .. Mami I was an only child, her parents were not there either. I don't know about Papi's family, either. In the village."

"Well, one hundred is enough."

"Yes, Mommy."

"Where's Trus going on his honeymoon?" ask Maya shyly.

Adji smiled small and blushed.

"Honeymoon? Both?"

"Well, Dji. The new bride. Don't want to go for a walk?"

"Well, ma'am. But darling the money. Mending in tube. If only tandem doang mah at home can also. People are halal."

"Ish, you're so innocent, Dji. He just doesn't want to." Maya pressed her lips a few inches.

"It's not so, my dear. People say that real life is after marriage. It would be a pity if the money was squandered."

"It's Papa's money, not ours."

"Well, let alone your parents' money. I just can't give you anything. All of your parents are involved. I'm ashamed, Ma'am. If I ask for this, let alone demand a honeymoon. Dapetin Mbak Maya I am very grateful to be happy."

Maya fell silent, soaking up every word that came out of her future husband's mouth. There is a sense of regret, because Adji does not want to be invited to honeymoon. But on the other hand he was grateful, if he did not choose the wrong candidate for priest. Because Adji never used himself in the least.

"Hatchim!"

"The tea's in the drink, it's cold!"

"Yes." Yeah."

Maya takes a glass filled with warm tea, and drinks it slowly.

"Sir, have you prayed magrib?"

"Later on, Dji. Isya at home. My clothes are dirty."

"Owh, yes, I have. It's eight and a half. I'll be home tonight."

"You riled?"

"No, I'm just worried about you. What did you ride?"

"Taxi online."

"It's a real shame."

"Well, what do I have to go up?"

"Naik private jet dong, rich Syahrini. Hehe."

"Yes, just kidding. Rich house you have parking lot."

"Yes, deh. My house is ugly."

"Who is craving. It really is. My house is ugly. It's just like being here."

"Soalya who has a handsome house anyway," seloroh Maya.

Adji is now the one who blushes in shame. The faces of the two turned red, unintentionally the two eyes met each other. Then take your eyes off.

Maya got up from her seat walking to the front door. Looking at the conditions outside, the rain had started to subside. When he turned around.

Bugs!

Suddenly his body hit the body of Adji who was already standing behind him.

"Adji, really ngagetin."

"Mom, don't use spies."

"What the hell are you. I'm going home." Maya takes her bag on the chair.

"Have you ordered the taxi?"

"No, I want to order this first."

Maya picks up her phone, and follows Adji who is sitting on the porch chair.

"Do you want a ngojek?" ask Maya suddenly.

Adji just shook his head.

"Why?"

"It's okay."

"Can be good, Dji. Than the muffler."

"But it's risky, Ma'am."

"meaning?"

"Yes risk coming into contact with the opposite sex. If anyone has a crush on me, how do you feel about me from behind? Want to?"

"Ye, thoughts. Don't want to. Again at most mothers want to go to the market ngojek."

"Mom to market where you want to go, Ma'am. Dear money. Mending their walk mah."

"Today, too. Yes but it is ...."

Not yet Maya continues to talk, Adji's fingers have closed her mouth.

"Sstttt .. I know what Mbak means. Ma'am want to walk both the same as me riding the bike, so it can hug me from behind?" Adji chuckles.

"Yes, the spiciness." Maya pats Adji's shoulder slowly.

Soon his phone rang, the phone of the taxi driver he ordered.

"I'm home, yeah."

"Yes, Mother. Careful. I'll drive it to the front."

They walked to the end of the alley together.

    Maya puts her body on the bed. After bathing, change clothes and pray. He could finally rest for a moment. His eyes glared deep into the ceiling of the room.

"Sister!" A voice surprised him. He looked up and saw his brother standing at the door.

Maya got up and sat staring at her sister.

"Why? Coming in!"

Sherli walked up to her brother's bed and sat down in front of him.

"Sister, I .. I .. want a story."

"About?"

"Eum .. I .. I .. I ...."

Maya cringing.

"Loe why? Tell me the same? There's a guy who dares to macem-macem the same loe?"

"Bu-no, Brother. I'm .. menstruating" Sherli said, whispering.

"Well, what do I think? Trus have not used the pads yet?"

Sherli shook her head.

"Wow, wake up. Ntar penetrated my bed." Maya tells her sister to get up from her seat.

He walked up to the closet, picked up the pads from inside his closet. And handed it to his sister.

"Nih, pake. Don't go back."

"What's the way?" Sherli looked at the wrapper as she read it.

"Here!" Maya grabs one pad and practices how to install the correct pads.

Sherli finally understood.

"Oh yeah, throw it away don't be careless."

"Why, Brother?"

"Ntar is licked by the devil."

"How do you keep throwing it away?"

"Yes washed clean, if the blood is not new wrapped in a new plastic pack dumped in the trash."

"Owh, that's it."

"Hem. I'm hunting there. Ish must be a scoundrel."

"Favor, Brother."

"Hem ...."

Sherli brings out the pads Maya gave her by hiding them in the t-shirts she wears.

Maya who saw the behavior of her sister just smiled a little. His little sister is now an adult. Sherli is still lucky when the first menstruation is still there himself who can be asked, while he was when the first menstruation, he had to find out for himself how to do it. Because at home there is no figure of an adult woman who can be asked.
