...86. Sooner or Later It’s Over (2)...
Kirei
He opened one by one the food parcels in a plastic bag. There's a special Kembangan chicken porridge. The french toast egg. And spring roll.
While Danang was sitting down staring at his cell phone. I don't know what he's doing. Clearly, he was busy. His face tense, then changed normally. But the next moment changed again. Unthinkable.
“Mas Danang want breakfast what?” Ask. The coffee he made had been drunk. He could see the rest of the coffee was a little.
“Hemm ...”
She approached the man, looked at what her husband was seeing and ignored him.
Danang looked up, “What?”
He was singing his lips, “Makanyya if I said horrified,” decaknya.
The man kept his cell phone on the table. Then get up from the chair. Swiping his cheek at a glance with his thumb.
“Soal works,” says Danang. Then cringing, “as much as this your friend send food.” It was standing near the mini bar. And sit there.
“But your friend doesn't know your favorite.”
“Chicken porridge .. bad choice, (bad choice)”
“French toast egg .. miscast, (misselect)”
“You're coughing, can't eat spring roll.”
He was still standing by the window seat. Swallowed saliva. Obviously, everything the man said was true. He does not like chicken porridge. Can't eat toast mingled with half-cooked eggs. And although he likes spring roll but his condition is now flu and cough. It will even aggravate.
Walking closer to Danang who has devoured french toast egg, “You eat this.” Tukas Danang offered his own toast. The man rubbed his head which had been sitting on the mini bar stool.
“Saturday or week home?” Ask Danang.
It shook his head, “Not yet, Mas.” Putting pieces of toast into his mouth, “later I'll tell you again.”
Danang peepingnya, “Healthy dragons. Don't get sick again.”
“Or let Yumah here aja.” Danang continued as his mouth was busy chewing.
He shook his head in disagreement, “I'm already well. Who will be Mas Danang Mas?”
The guy is clucking, “Most.” While rubbing his head, “which is important to you first. Number one.”
They finished their morning meal.
He took a gulp of water and saw Danang. Their eyes were staring at each other. And hold it tightly.
“Rei ...”
“Heemm,” she answered while hooking hands around her husband's waist.
Danang showered a kiss on her face, “I miss you ...” Then he grabbed his lips.
He straightened his back. With Danang. Even the man pulled his waist deeper.
The pagutan lip both produce decapan that out filled the room studio type room. Pretty long. They took each other off. With roaring breath. Gasps.
They stick their noses and forehead. Throwing each other smiles.
“Fear of no control,” whispered Danang. Rubbing his wet lips.
"I'll wait in Semarang."

Danang
He had to end the meeting with Kirei because of the work that had been waiting for him. He made sure his wife's condition improved. No need to worry about it anymore. So that it can be abandoned.
But the figure of a friend being told sending various food to Kirei's apartment made him a little distracted. No doubt it made him jealous.
“Ren ...” Call him by phone. After the arrival door.
“Where?”
“Arah at 9 from where you stand.”
“OK."

Kirei
The girl was doing her usual activities. After filming in the studio. He went back to his room.
“This is a script for tomorrow,” said Nana thrusting some sheets of paper on her desk.
“Yang this guest star biography.” Re-take the file to him.
“Tomorrow we shoot outdoor.” Don't forget!” Nana immediately rushed away.
He sighed. His relationship with Nana is the same. Like a vegetable without salt. Tasteless.
In the morning he was chasing time. The guest star came first.
“Taman Sari, Bang!” The appeal is on ojek online. Even though in the application he has listed his purpose. I don't know why he reflexes say that.
“Bang cepetan dikit,” he was impatient. His phone kept vibrating inside his sling bag. Must be one of the crew. Or Gita. It could even be Anton. Who kept contacting him.
Arriving in the Old Town area, he immediately went down. The motor did not stop perfectly. Handing helmet. Then half ran towards the crowd of the crew who were preparing the location.
“Rei,” greet one of the campers.
“Hai, Mas. Sorry!” Her speech.
“It’s okay.” The other campers.
“It's not our fault. But the guest star suddenly went overseas. So ... we follow the schedule.” Anton chiming.
“From waiting for him to return home from abroad. Your contract may expire.” Kelakar Anton's.
He smiled at the smile.
“Gita,”
“Waituin you there.” Appoint Anton on the folding tent. Gita looked to wave her hand.
As soon as he sat on the folding tent chair was immediately treated to a fan. Gita patted her face with a tissue.
“Gara-gara guest star this time, we are all made the fog.” Chirps Gita. “Sshh ...” His fists are.
“Where are the guest stars?” Ask her slowly.
Head Gita leaned into his ear, “That's again chat with Mas Anton.” Legally. Which is not far from them at the moment.
The condition of the Old City area so early is not too crowded. Just a few visitors. So it does not interfere too much with the process of taking the scene.

Danang
He just dropped out of class at the weekend. After some time ago had faltered due to the density of work. He could finally continue again.
At least starting the next few months he should prepare the thesis material. Pursue lag.
He threw his body in his chair. After arriving at the office. Turn on computer. Open a stack of reports to check.
Ting.
William : Where are you?
Tagged : Office.
William call ....
It clucked. Just about to work even bullies muddle his mind.
“Ya, Will ..” Legally.
“Catrajin, lo! Weekend, Ndan!” Willi sneers.
“Gue again otewe. See you at hotel ...” Willi mentioned a five-star hotel where the event was held.
Later tonight is Dipa's wedding ceremony. The next morning, there was a reception. In the same place.
“Two hours!” Her salad. He should check the work report. And send some reports via email.
Wili at the end there screeched, “Dealing with this one Commander is a hassle, Man! Super duper busy.”
He chuckles. “DEAL!”
“What of it! (Stupid time!)”
Phone connection disconnected. He frowned, thinned his lips and continued his work.

Kirei
He rushed out of the door of arrival when the sun had sunk. “Mas ...” His lawyer found Danang to pick him up. The man was wearing a batik shirt. It means it's ready.
After filming in Old Town. He and the crew returned to the office. Shooting in the studio until the afternoon. Then he went to Semarang.
Danang fell silent. Pulling his arm into the car.
The person driving the car remained silent. His eyes focused forward.
The man is clucking. Reprehend. When the road is dragged. Especially when stopping at a red light. Crowded road conditions due to Sunday night. Caused a long line.
The time has shown at 19:00 WIB. While Dipa's marriage contract at 8 pm is right.
“Mas!” He remembered, so that the man was more patient driving. But Danang is still flinching.
Arriving at the hotel they rushed into the room that has been booked. He put a paper bag on him.
It reached into it. A little black dress under the knee.
He gasped as Danang helped take off his shirt. He didn't even get to change his clothes during the last shoot. Still wearing a red shirt and blazer combined with a white plisket skirt.
“Mas ...” Danang's hands have removed one by one the buttons of the front shirt.
“I can do it myself,”.
But the man continued to remove all the buttons. Until it opens perfectly. A lacy black chest wrapper poked out behind it.
A moment later Danang pulled her skirt down.
“Mas, why the hell?” He was caught off guard by Danang's attitude.
“Anged?”
“I'm late?”
“Not my power.” His words follow emotion.
“I'm sorry .. if Mas Danang keles.” Stringency.
The man had put a dress on my mother's body.
“I wait 10 minutes you dandan.” Tukas Danang reached into a cell phone in his pants pocket. Then walk to the balcony of the room.
He breathed a rough breath.
“Why the hell?!” His grunt.
They walked into the ballroom on the 1st floor in a hurry. He even had to adjust his steps to the man. Although a little overwhelmed but Danang flanked his hands.
“We're late.” Said Danang sour when he arrived at the ballroom where Dipa's marriage contract. Penghulu has already recited a prayer for a couple.
He sighed. Keep your feet looking for an empty seat in the back.
They sit in a position. While he still managed to catch his breath.
He greeted the twins Kasih and Arik. Then greet her husband's friends. And lastly greet the bride standing on the front stage.
“Congratulations, yes, Mbak Ais and Mas Dipa. May samawa .. happy always.” Her speech.
Taking pictures with the bride. Then with all my friends.
Exactly at 10 p.m. He and Danang plan to return to their room.
“Mas I go to the toilet first. I can't stand it.” He walked quickly to the toilet still around the ballroom.
Danang was waiting outside.
After exiting, he circulated his vision in all directions. But her husband was invisible. He walked out into the lobby.
“Kirei.” Call someone at the reception desk.
He looked, then nodded.
The man approached him, “We meet again,” a smile with a twinkle plastered in the man's eyes.
“Again there is an event here?” Ask Ganjar.
“Iya, you?”
“Same. Me too.”
He nodded then his mouth rounded like saying ‘oh’.
“I stay here,” Ganjar added.
A porter approached them, “Pak this is the key to his room,” the porter told Ganjar. “You want us to deliver, Sir?” fresh porter.
“No thanks. I don't bring much stuff.” Elak Ganjar's.
“Good if so. Excuse me.” The porter passed.
"You get to kap-" the phrase Ganjar hangs when .... A hand clasped his waist. Which still stands not far from Ganjar.
“Already?” Ask Danang.
He looked and then nodded.
“Gan, sorry I first ya.” His side fell on Ganjar who was staring at him.
He walked with Danang. He disappeared into the elevator moving up.

Fidgety
Suddenly his lips closed. And was surprised to find a man clutching Kirei's waist. Possessively.
Oh gosh!
He closed his eyes for a moment. Staring at Kirei's departure and the man disappeared behind the closing elevator and moved up.
Damn it!!
No way!!
What a wrong vision!
He breathed a heavy breath. It was as if a burden was piling up in his chest. He felt tired just to breathe. Whatisthis?

Danang
The man received a phone call from his boss. Stay away from the toilet. But it could still watch over Kirei from a distance.
“Good, Sir.”
“Ready!” Answer at the end of the conversation.
After a long time of talking, the boss hung up the phone. He saw Kirei walking towards the lobby.
But the phone goes back to the number.
Arik ....
“Where?” Ask Arik.
“Sorry, I go above.”
“Cih, the bride is still here! Lo want to go first,” Arik mocked and chuckled afterwards.
He clucked, “Kirei exhausted. Last time out work directly here.” The kill is right, isn't it?
“OK .. okay. Slow, Man!”
Phone connection disconnected.
He could see a man approaching his wife. They seem to talk. And he could see the man's gesture like .... Oh shit!!
Quickly saturate them. He grabbed his wife by the waist and took her away from the man.
