Love The Bule
Welcome to Jogja
Tong Ting
John who all day was just filling time with sleep, eating, and watching television was finally moving from the sofa to the door that had just pressed the bell.
Every holiday before, it feels like Jhon is very bored. He prefers working days rather than holidays, even though when with Tina, Jhon always longs for holidays, long before the weekend, Jon has even prepared the activities that they will do when the weekend comes. But now, Jhon is busy more days – days by working and taking care of Michelle. And it's lucky that Michelle is doing so well. Three months of intense treatment, Michelle is said to be nearing recovery, wlau's outpatient control was still being carried out and at the time the three bullae were relentless back and forth Jakarta Singapore only to balance between work with his responsibilities with the little boy who the former admitted as his son, followed by DNA evidence that made Jhon believe.
“Jhon, are you still sleeping?” ask a woman who is standing with a child.
“Grace?” Jhon is shocked to see the presence of someone who made him lose Tina. He also looked at the smiling little girl.
“Daddy.”
The little boy immediately asked Jhon to carry him and gladly carried him.
Without being invited to enter, Grace also entered the apartment saying, “You forgot to invite us to walk – way to Jogya?”
Jhon scrunched his forehead.
“Even I still hold our departure plane ticket.” Grace showed the ticket to John.
“Come, fast net – net! We are waiting for you.”
John dropped the princess off and rushed to the bathroom.
“Jhon, your apartment is a mess,” Grace said she saw the Jhon apartment that was like a broken ship.
“It does not need to be cleared,” shouted Jhon.
“It's okay, while waiting for you to be ready,” said Grace who happily tidied up the contents of the apartment, even though Jhon never wanted it, even Jhon always forbade Grace to hold her belongings.
Not because there is no reason, considering that some photos of Tina on display arrived – arrived disappeared every time Grace came to this apartment and cleaned up some scattered items.
Jhon was forced to follow the wishes of the two women at different ages. This was his promise when Michlle was on the drop. He promised Michelle to take her to Indonesia and take a vacation to Jogja. One week ago, that promise was billed by Michelle. It has been three days since Grace and Michellle arrived in Jakarta. However, during those three days, Jhon never accompanied them walking – streets in the capital. Jhon only prepared the driver for the child and the mother.
And to this day he also fulfilled another promise, and then after that he will talk to Grace to fulfill his other responsibilities, considering that his responsibilities to Michelle have been fulfilled, he said, now he wants to fulfill his promise, Tina.
After traveling long enough and far finally Jhon arrived in Jogja with Grace and Michelle.
“Hey, are you tired, baby?” ask John to Michelle.
“No.” Michelle shook her head. “I'm already very healthy, Dad.”
Jhon smiling. “Good.”
Grace who was next to Jhon smiled. Then, Jhon shifted his gaze to Grcae.
“Grace, when I get to the hotel, I want to talk to you.”
Grace nodded. He thought Jhon would talk about marriage, but Jhon would instead talk about his marriage with the woman of his tribe, not with Grace.
Jhon and the mother and child arrived at the hotel.The three stood at the reception.
“You booked two rooms?” ask Grace to Jhon.
“Ya.”
“Michelle will sleep alone?”
Jhon straightened his forehead. “Not. I'll sleep alone.”
Arrived – arrived Grace's face changed. He thought, Jhon deliberately ordered two rooms, because the man wanted to room with him only.
“Mom, why doesn't Dad sleep in our room?” michelle asked her mother as they entered the room.
“Now, maybe Daddy just wants to be alone.”
Michelle pouting. “Why is Daddy so? Is Daddy still thinking about Aunty Tina?”
The more seeing the father, Michelle the more concerned, the article now the father is not as happy and funny as before. Jhon was more silent and pensive. Like this time, when they enjoyed dinner, after a short break in the kaamr after arrival.
“Dad. Stop!” Michelle held the bottle of sausage and was followed by Grace's hand holding the bottle.
“Saos that Daddy overpours.”
Instantly Jhon also realized that from earlier he was daydreaming until the sauce poured into his plate was overflowing.
“Jhon, why are you?” grace asked, shaking her head.
In a different place, Tina did the same.
“Dek ... Dek .. Dek ... kecapnya mostly tuh,” said Alif when eating with his wife and sister-in-law in a meatball shop.
“Ah, mostly yes,” said Tina who just realized it turns out the meatball bowl is no longer white but black.
“Yes, Deck. What's good about your gravy?” arafah laughed.
“What do you think, Dek?” Alif asked his sister-in-law again.
Lucky while eating at this tavern, Al Fatih did not come along. It was also in accordance with the wishes of Tina who did not want Al to come with them.
“Ck. Must have thought of that bule huh?” arafah.
“Bule? Bule who? Ummi's sister?” ask Alif.
Arafah laughs. “Not Bule Sri, Mas.but bule, male – male crossbreed.”
“Oalah, bule really?”
“Mas Alif same Mbak Arafah what the hell? Ga funny,” says Tina.
Arafah also let out laughter. “Lagian does still want people who do not exist, it is better to focus the same that is in front of the eyes. Ma'am, Mas Al ga objected that Abi continued the delayed matchmaking first.”
Tina's eyes immediately rounded towards the elder sister. “Mbak Fah. Don't macem – macem deh.”
Arafah laughed and Alif contributed laughter.
“Yes, it looks like from the gaze of Al to you is different anyway, Dek. Don't – don't be the one who directly asks you to Abi.” Alif added.
“Ih, this is her husband and wife. Shabira has not married. Not ready yet,” replied Tina.
“By twenty-six is still not ready. When are you going to get?” ask Arafah.
“Mbak, you know my story. I still want to be alone at this time.”
Arafah was silent. “Yo wis, it's up to you.”
“Ya already, how about tomorrow we go to Jogja,” said Alif arrived – arrived. “Secual refreshing. We leave by car.”
“Wah, agreed,” sahut Arafah enthusiast. Then look towards the sister. “Come, Deck! After all you've been three months ngerem continue in the room.”
Tina was silent for a moment until her head finally nodded. “OK. Welcome to Jogja.”
“Yeah,” sahut Arafah happy.
“I invite Gus Al also yes,” said Alif.
“Ngga.” Tina protested. “If he's invited, I'm not coming.”
“Ih, cog.”
Tina's lips are still pouting. Jhon's favorite expression he's looking at on his phone screen. He stared at the mobile screen with a gallery that was almost filled with photos of the idol of the heart.
“Tina, I'll pick you up soon.”
