Meeting on the city bus

Meeting on the city bus
45.Like a child!


After arriving at Dara's room, take out a shirt from the bag. Then take her change of clothes, and go straight to the bathroom that is behind the house. With a booth of bamboo, as a bathroom wall. Dara who has not drawn water for a long time was lazy he had to draw if he wanted to take a bath.


After drawing approximately 10 buckets, make nyuci and bath. Or else he must be tired first can use water. Because in its water that must be taken approximately 13 meters. Dara sat down with a breath that was still burning she started washing dirty clothes yesterday and today.


After hours later Dara was done with her activities. Then he chose to relax in playing his favorite rabbit doll. Which was given by Raid yesterday, study time at Cengkareng market.


Mr. Kasiran does not like the behavior of women who are like children. He immediately rebuked Dara with a high tone. It is heard by the ears of the right and left neighbors. It makes Dara upset and sad, but he does not look right in front of his parents.


"You are not like a child!, you are an adult, you do not deserve to play with such a doll anymore! isn't she ashamed of her age?" ask Kasiran with a high tone.


"In Jakarta many people my age play dolls. What else if the doll was given by a beloved girlfriend." Dara went straight into the room and chose to sleep after eleven. Leaving his father upset with Dara is getting harder and harder to manage for him.


It's not Dara who can't be set up, but Dara who is tired of it all. From childhood he had to obey, give in and never could he refuse. Since the name of the matchmaking began, since then Dara rebelled. I went to Jakarta to find my own life. Never again he wants to go home in the near future, two years he has just come home.


In the evening Dara joined the taraweh at the nearby musholla of the house. He accidentally met Irawan who is now right in front of Dara. It looks handsome with a cocoa shirt and a sarong and black peci. Dara just stared at him for a while then entered the musholla first.


While Irawan saw the woman he loved so much. It had been two years not meeting Dara, making a sweet smile as Dara looked at her. Even though only a glance Dara looked at him without reprimanding him. It has made his heart happy, because his longing is now treated.


Tarawih prayer has finished Dara first out of the musholla. So that he can immediately arrive and avoid Irawan of course. Like playing with the cat Dara, while walking to his house he smiled. For imagining, if Irawan waited for himself in front of the door of the musholla.


True allegations of Dara Irawan waiting for Dara in front of the door of the musholla until people no longer exist. He woke up when the neighbor patted his shoulder and rebuked him.


"Wan who are you waiting for?"he asked a neighbor and an ustadz.


"Oh this is mas, wait for Dara but there is no yes. Did I see it wrong, or how. When I entered to pray, I saw him here. He even looked at me, even for a moment." Irawan replied at length, telling about himself who met Dara.


"Oh Dara, indeed he he had come home earlier I saw him ride the motorcycle at 8 am if not wrong. Maybe he came home first to avoid you, because he didn't want to see you again." The ustadz said.


"So I didn't see it wrong?" confirm at the ustadz, and answered with a nod.


"Alhamdulillah,,, because I'm really crazy. Because hallucinations keep on, seeing her so I always see her figure." Irawan.


"Just tell me, don't be bad for me." Said Irawan who knows the direction of the talk of the ustadz.


"I am someone else, but my wife is Kasiran's distant aunt. But already know because of his children, because they often chat at home. That's why I suggest you don't always hope for Dara. What else he already knows Jakarta, the city life is more interesting for him. Dara also most dislikes if invited in the fields or fields. Unlike Nina, she likes farming very much, she is flexible when working in the fields." The Ustadz.


"Yes natural mas, most beautiful people do not want to be difficult. Yes, I love him very much anyway." Irawan said with pride.


"What can you enjoy from your marriage if you have a wife like Dara. You love the wrong people. Remember yes, if the soul mate, fortune, death has been determined by Allah SWT. Therefore, as far as you pursue Dara, if you do not match, then until anytime you will not unite. Try to talk to Kasiran later." Ustadz Advice on Irawan.


"Yes, I will not try to talk to Kasiran. What if I marry Nina alone, it's also if the kekeh dara reject me mas. If Dara changes her mind I'll definitely marry Dara." Said Irawan, who still expected Dara to be his wife.


"As far as you are Wan, good luck getting one of Kasiran's children. So you don't it's not a weathered bachelor."Ejek the ustadz.


"Yes mas, let's put it this way I don't do it. But I don't want another woman besides Dara." Said Irawan, self-defense and proud that he liked many women.


While Dara is now eating he chokes with the food he eats.


"Uhuk uhuk uhuk." Until tears come out.


" Uhuk uhuk uhuk"


"Why don't you slow down when you eat?"asked father.


"There are most who talk ugly, so cough up like that. " The words of Paimah's grandmother are often called Nek Imah.


Dara whose breath was dull with eyes reddened nose was red. For choking, until his face was red. With Dara's left hand rubbed her tears that had wet her cheeks. After that he drank water, then continued with that.


"Huh wanine ngerasani Nang mburi ae (huh dare to talk behind aja)."Said Dara, on the sidelines of her meal.
