Happy Reading's...

The warm atmosphere was so felt in the inpatient room where Kak Melati was. Pak Agung, Bu Mega, Bang Nusa, sat around the ward Kak Melati with a smile never faded from them all. Likewise with me, who was standing not far from all of them, along with Erik.

I enjoy this happiness. Especially, the happiness of Bu Mega, who felt very relieved. Because, the good news was conveyed by the doctor who treated Kak Melati this afternoon. What is considered impossible becomes possible for them.

"It's very generous of people who want to donate one of their kidneys to Melati, Ma." Slowly, Brother Melati said. "Will Melati be able to meet that person before the surgery, Ma.?" A hope was clearly visible in Kak Melati's eyes, making me lift my face slowly.

"Papa can persuade the doctor to tell us who that person is. Mama was also eager to thank him directly."

"Mama heard Dr. Tian say how." Reply Mr. Supreme.

"Let's Nusa who tries to talk to dr. Tian, Pa." Sahut Bang Nusa.

"Mysterious as hell, don't don't be a prankster, Mel." Tymphal Erik.

I took a few steps forward towards Kak Melati's ward, and stopped right at the end. I stretched out my hand, touching the tip of Kak Melati's leg which was wrapped in a thick blanket. "Rose, there is no need to think about what the reason for the person hiding his identity from all of us. It is certainly a recompense from Allah, for all the goodness of Kak Melati all this time." I said with my sweetest smile for Kak Melati.

Everyone stared at me with a look of agreement, except for Erik. "But it's still too mysterious. And actually said Bang Nusa noh. Find out tomorrow Bang." Seloroh Erik came closer and stopped right beside me.

"Emang wants to say if you have met the person. If he wants to promote it, of course he has his own reasons, Rik. Let me just why." Answer me in a calm tone.

"Yes, why not napa. Just wanted to take care of him, not Gino." Erik said with a grimace.

"You exist, Rik." Timpal Mr. Great.

"You are a child." Timpalku while my hands back on the foot Kak Melati.

"The two of you are always noisy together." The simple words said by Bu Mega, making the smile on my lips suddenly feel stiff. That's because, Bu Mega said it with a cynical tone while glancing not wearing it towards me.

And as usual Kak Melati will quickly be aware of such things, and immediately change the discussion with others. "War, it's night. Aren't you guys coming back tonight. You have to go to school tomorrow."

"Come on, sister Mel, listen to the Rose this afternoon." My whining was slow and Kak Melati's head bobbing made me pursed my lips quickly. Added to the glare of Bu Mega's eyes, made me quickly switch from my place.

"It's for your own good, War. Remember, this is almost a test. Brother Mel, you don't want to fail." Said Kak Melati slowly.

"Yes, the rose knows. Rose go home first." My answer.

"You just go home, tomorrow morning you just go back to Kostan." Said Mr. Supreme.

"Schoolers want to be in at what time, Pa. Let's just go straight back to the hostel." Ketus Bu Mega, making Mr. Agung exhale deeply.

"Rik, you can drive properly tonight like a gini.?" Ask the Great Sir to Erik.

"Trust the same Erik, Om." With a jumawa Erik patted his chest. "Don't forget the pay tomorrow, War. Service geratis in the loe workshop." Erik continued, and I only answered by poking my lips at him.

"Even, it's usually not free." The Timpal Bang Nusa.

"It's different, Bang. Free oil garda.ckckck."

"That's the name. Ahaha.." Bang Nusa's speech successfully made me turn my lips towards Erik who was still grim.

"It's night, hurry up." Back saying Bu Mega made me immediately end this all by saying goodbye to them all.

"Come, you get ahead." Said Mr. Agung slowly.

"No need, sir. There's Erik." I deliberately answered like that, because the objection gaze that was presented by Bu Mega shrank my guts.

"It's okay. Come on." Said Mr. Agung without heeding the disapproving look of Bu Mega. And quickly Mr. Agung embrace my shoulder, then invite me to step out of the hospital room Kak Melati.

Our steps had arrived at the entrance to the parking lot when Mr. Agung stopped his steps and told Erik to leave us first. "I'm sorry I said that, War." Said Mr. Agung slowly, while pressing both of my shoulders with his hands.

I just flanged up while smiling slowly. "It's okay, sir."

"I'm sorry, you.."

"No sir, don't repeat Mawr's apology. That's not worth the Rose, after all that you and your family have given to the Rose all this time." I quickly cut off the words of Mr. Great who always will be long if I have apologized to me. What else if it's about Bu Mega.

"You're a good boy, War." On the stroke of his head my head was slow. "Here, make some pocket money." In the sodorkan several pieces of fiber fractions of money towards me by Mr. Agung.

"Roses still have a handle, sir. Mother's hand yesterday is still." I plan to go back to the hand of Mr. Agung to where it was.

"War, you don't lie. You know, even if you're short of money, obviously you won't ask us." Mr. Agung tried very hard to slip the money in between my fingers that were clenching the meeting.

"War.?"

"Believe in the Rose, sir. Roses go first well, later if anything is the same Kak Melati, please tell the Rose." I grabbed the hand of Mr. Agung, kissed him with reverence and then moved after Erik who would have been waiting for me in the parking lot.

Erik's calf face in the parking lot welcomed my arrival, and he quickly gave me a helmet, muttering in protest with a mosquito that had tattooed on his leg. "The horde's wearing a helmet, War." Erik said when he realized I wasn't wearing my helmet.

"I'm, I'm gonna stay here." Slow down, and I thrust the helmet back at Erik who was sitting on his motorcycle. Then rushed away, when the helmet had moved back into Erik's hands.

My steps stopped as soon as I felt my hand in a tight grip and it was by Erik who was still complete with a helmet on his head. "Loe, where are you going.?"

"I have a little business, Rik. You just go home." Answer me while releasing Erik's hand from mine.

Erik looked at me with his murderous gaze, giving me goosebumps. "Loe, still don't want to say the same cave.".

"What the hell, Rik. I really have business." My speech.

"Loe can lie everything, but not the same cave."

"I don't know what you mean. I'm just worried about Kak Melati." Erik tightened his hand even more, so I felt a slight pain in my wrist.

"Tiba arrived there is a kidney for Jasmine, after almost half a day you disappeared. Do you think caves are stupid, War. Answer." Erik's voice was rising.

"Sick, Rick." I said without regard to Erik's caliphate. And my goal is just diversion.

"Good eyes, cave." Erik said again. "Gua said look into the cave's eyes, Rose." I looked into Erik's eyes which were full of worry towards me. "Loe was the one who donated Kidney to Jasmine." This time Erik's tone of voice sounded lower, but it was painful.

I just kept quiet without being able to answer Erik asked. And chose to throw away my view of Erik. "Is this also still because of Daffa.?"

Lirih, that's a soft word. However, being able to make my eyes return to Erik again. "It's pure karen Melati, Rik." I answered while shaking slowly.

"Nonsense. That you did too because Melati gave up on Daffa." Erik let go of my hand violently. "You know the consequences of living with one kidney, War."

"You know, Rik. How Kak Melati was in pain all this time. You know it hurts me too. Then what's wrong if I sacrifice a little for Kak Melati."

"I asked, you know the consequences of living with one kidney.."

"To me Kaki Jasmine everything, Rik." No matter what Erik's question was, I just voiced out what I wanted to voice in my heart.

"You don't get.."

"Rik, I won't care what it's like. I just want Kak Melati to get her happy." I interrupted Erik's words.

"Go." I stepped away from Erik, but I had not yet left Erik, pulled my wrist back by Erik and quickly turned my body against him.

"At least think I care about you, War." I looked at Erik in disbelief, this is the first time Erik has mentioned me and you, not the cave and loe. It feels foreign to me, what more gaze was given to me. "I have to what if something happens to you."

I repeated my eyes to make sure that what I heard and saw was true. However, over and over again I do remain the same. I still can't understand what's in Erik's brain about me.

"I'd be happier if you were selfish for a moment for yourself and forgot Melati for a while by teaching Daffa. It'll feel more normal."

"Love will not be selfish. Nor will love force a person to stay by his side for a million reasons. Because love is like the trust you and I have." Reply slowly.
