Chapter 75


Lemukutan Island


We were in my hometown for four days. And the plan, tomorrow we will return to Makassar. Fandi Dan Roy today accompanied Budi looking for souvenirs typical of Pontianak to be taken to Makassar, while I chose to rest at home because my body is very tired like the loss of bone and meat.


How not, yesterday we spent two days and one night, staying on Lemukutan Island.


The Flash Back On


Lemukutan Island is an island located in Sungai Raya Islands Subdistrict, Bengkayang Regency, West Kalimantan province.


We started our journey to Lemukutan Island. From Pontianak by car to the ferry dock which is about 130 Km with a travel time of about three and a half hours. Arriving at the dock, you can see simple wooden ships that are used to transport people and goods from and to Lemukutan Island.


The journey from the pier to Lemukutan Island takes about an hour. Along the way, we were treated to the sight of exotic islands that arouse curiosity because most of the island is uninhabited.


The typical wind gusts of the ocean accompanied by a small wave blow made the eyes as if they did not believe it was still in West Kalimantan which is better known for its natural wealth in the form of forests and rivers


Arriving at Lemukutan Island, we were immediately treated to a view of crystal-clear sea water that could not afford to hide the beauty of underwater coral reefs are still well preserved. .


Without wasting any time, I headed straight to the beach to enjoy the exoticism of this island and of course Roy followed my back.


"What a beautiful place you recommend is beautiful. I love this place." Said Roy who looked amazed by the scenery around.


Our eyes are served with fine gravel that covers most of the beach and pamper the feet when we walk on it.


The rhythm of coconut trees that swing following the wind accompanied by the chirping of birds seems to make us on an island far from human civilization.


"Thank God you like Roy. Oh, where's Mas Fandi?"


"He put our things in the inn with Budi."


"Oh, jeez! I forgot about our stuff. Duh is not good. The guests are troubled."


"Not to be thought of. Looks like Fandi is happy to be here too. Look that way!"


Show Roy with his chin, looking at Mas Fandi and Budi who have been giggling while playing water on the beach.


Apparently they have started swimming first without inviting me and Roy. But I smiled at Mas Fandi's loud laughter. It was not in vain that I brought them to this place. At least Mas Fandi could forget his sadness for a moment. Even though he never said it.


"You want to join them?" Asked Roy who seemed tempted to taste the fresh seawater that penetrated the field to the bottom.


I smiled and answered Roy's question.


"But wait a minute!"


"Why?"


"You don't swim in a bikini, do you?"


"Haah? Yes no! I'm wearing this black bellows and t-shirts."


Roy seemed to sigh in relief.


"Why is Roy?"


"It's okay. I thought you were gonna wear a bikini. I don't think I can see you in people's eyes with that."


"Hehehe, not Roy. I never wear a bikini when I swim. Especially here this area outside the city, such clothes are still taboo for the community. Alias civilization is still far from modern. It might be different if it was a bule-bule wearing it. The community may still be commonplace because a little know also life abroad. But yeah, it still looks weird if someone's wearing a bikini."


"Oh, so."


"Yes, but it's different if life in the city. Some people swim in bikinis. Usually a hotel visitor. And they swim in that hotel, too." I clearly.


"That means the customs here are still thick?"


"I think everything is right is still planting culture like here. Just how much is recalcitrant and how much is still obeying."


"Yes, you're right."


Roy and I finally arrived at the inn facing the sea. I went to my room and Roy went to his room.


After a few minutes we went out of each room and have used clothes that will be used to swim.


But, ouch...


These eyes accidentally saw Roy's body using a black singlet. Although still wrapped with shoulders without arms, Roy's body is still clearly visible in the shape of his muscles that he seems to be diligent in sports.


Duh, shame on me...


"Ehem."


I immediately averted my eyes, threw away my embarrassment and walked quickly to the shoreline.


Roy chuckled, then half-run he caught up with me.


It turned out that Budi and Mas Fandi were playing with other visitors. They do snorkeling enjoying the underwater beauty of Lemukutan Island.


***


After being satisfied to play water until the afternoon, here we are when night falls.


The fresh breeze of the night hit me in the face, twisting my hair in and out like it was taking her dancing. Seeing the lights of a fishing boat in the distance part of the star that flashes above the sea.


The night atmosphere on Lemukutan Island is very much different from what is usually in urban nature. Most residents do not even close the door of their homes at night because they already know their fellow citizens on this island. The wide smiles of fishermen returning home in boats full of fish sweetened the peaceful night on the island.


"It's cold, why don't you just go in to watch television?" Said Roy who caught up with me and sat on the porch seat beside me.


"Watching television can be at home, it's a pity to waste the night view like this here."


"Totally so." Said Roy who looked far away.


"Have you eaten yet?"


"It has. Even Fandi has sailed to his weathered island. Maybe he was tired all day. You're not eating?"


"I'm still full. Sorry I ate first, because my magh feels like it's starting to relapse."


"Don't think of us. If you are hungry, eat first. Don't let your health be compromised because of us."


...


Not long did the silence say hello. Both Roy and I were both silent enjoying the breeze that blew against the body.


"If they ask you to go back to your ex-husband, will you accept it?"


I was surprised to hear Roy question, then looked at that sad looking handsome face.


Roy looked at me until our eyes looked at each other.


"I've got a plan in my life. Didn't you and Mas Fandi also take part in that? And that's not gonna change."


Silence, Roy did not respond to my words. But the look in his eyes still looked at me.


"I've lived with that man before. And I felt like it was a mistake. Then what to do, if to repeat the same mistake." Say back.


Roy was still unmoved, but slowly his smile rose and his hand grabbed my hand and clasped it tightly.


Don't ask if my heart is beating or not. To the extent that I was afraid this strong heartbeat was heard by Roy.


"Beautiful Brother, oh sorry." Said Budi who accidentally saw Roy holding my hand.


My cousin seemed to feel uneasy about appearing in a situation that was not appropriate in his opinion, perhaps.


I hurriedly took off Roy's hand. Do not want to cause a question mark for Budi, which my cousin also already knows I will marry Mas Fandi.


"Ade ape Bud?"


"Sister In, eat the dolok. Brother In is eating eel."


"Iye Bud, a moment of agik."


Then go inside and leave me and Roy on this porch. Roy was about to take my hand. But I quickly hid it behind my body.


"It's not good to see Roy." My word.


Roy breathed a sigh. Her face looked sad after I rejected her.
