No path will be straight and smooth. Because if all roads can be passed easily, then the consequences of forgetting land will often occur. And if there are no climbs, twists, and derivatives on the road, then there will be no challenges on the way. Likewise with life. Life is like a journey, while the road is a medium to arrive at the destination. Where the ultimate purpose of life, of course met with certainty.


Maybe what I did today can't be considered right, but it's also one of the ways that I have to go for one of those purposes. Objectives, which may be too swiped. Leaving the Pesantren on the grounds of Mahad's affairs, I again created a lie. And when will this lie win.?


Waiting for the phone to shake in my hand, as if waiting for the rain in the middle of summer. And I've been sitting on a park bench for almost half an hour where I usually meet Mas Karang and I. In the past, the phone was not too I ignored, but since a week ago, when Mas Karang went off duty outside the city, the phone seemed so I missed the sound.


Yeah, it's been a week since my phone went off and that's since Mas Karang left. As I said earlier, there is no straight and smooth path. Same with my relationship with Mas Karang. Nine months together with no significant problems, I don't think there will be any increase in feelings for us, if we continue like that.


However, one dishonesty brought my relationship and Mas Karang into betting. Fear of not being worthy of my condition that is not as healthy as it might be, that is what fills my mind. And because of that fear, my courage to say about Bu Mega's request to me also seemed to drown as well.


I was getting more delusional in speculation alone, when Mas Karang did not come as he promised. And it seems, I am overdoing it. I should be self-aware, if Mas Karang is someone who is not unemployed like me, Mas Karang is also not a person who does not have the same position as me. Moreover, Mas Karang is not the person that other people want because it is a substitute.


The clock kept turning, leaving the point at the lowest to the top spot. And the Sun has also increased in accordance with the rotation of its axis. Closing my eyes tightly, I let the wind caress my face, I gave the sun permission to touch me with its rays, until I was satisfied and opened my eyes again.


How surprised I was, when I opened my eyes it turned out that Mas Karang was sitting next to me with his fixed gaze staring at me. And I was satisfied that my eyes looked at him as if this would be the last time we met.


"Sorry long wait." He said slowly, then he made eye contact. "There was an impromptu operation." Mas Karang.


"It's okay. When did sampean come from.?" My toot.


"Not too long. It hasn't cooled either." Mas Karang replied while lifting two boxes of rice with a faint smile. "Let's find a place to eat." Continue Mas Karang with already standing, a moment later immediately walking when I was standing next to him.


Finding a place right by the river, we sat facing each other with a large stone that functioned as a table. While Mas Karang was busy with arranging the rice box, I was busy paying attention to Mas Karang.


"So I'm the same as me." Said Mas Karang when he realized that I kept paying attention to him.


If I would normally deny and be busy looking for excuses, this time I would not want to do that at all. And just nods casually with a smile that expands on my lips. Indeed the pleasure of love that defeats logic, but this is not true love.


"Feed soon, Rose. Keep looking at me it won't make you full." Say Mas Karang again when I am still eating Mas Karang non-stop.


"Indeed will not be full anyway, but it is enough to make forget, because the charm of rice is lost to sampean." My answer as long as it makes Mas Karang laugh loudly.


"Not all lose with rendang." Said Mas Karang in between his laughter.


"You didn't say that, but unfortunately I'm the kind of person who can't eat four-legged animal meat."


"really. I just knew that." Answer Mas Karang quickly.


"Indeed, we still don't know much about each other." I replied slowly while propping my cheek and playing a spoon in my nose. "I'm sorry, it's not my heart's intention to keep it a secret about my physical health, it's just that I'm.."


"Eat first, Rose. Because I'm too hungry." Cut up the Coral while putting food in my mouth.


"Mas, I almost choked." I said as soon as the grains of rice had passed through my throat.


"That's why don't you keep talking, eat up." Continue Mas Karang and have returned to focus on the food.


With a slight murmur, I also focused myself with my food. And we ate in silence, as if Mas Karang was being hunted for time.


After downing half of the mineral water, Mas Karang and I changed our sitting position with each other, while our eyes were far ahead. Enjoying the ripples from the water that snarled, Mas Karang and I dissolved in each other's minds. Until I reopen my words.


"Mas, I'm sorry." Overshipped. "I should have said from the beginning about me living with one kidney." I'm more subtle still.


"I'm the one who should be apologizing, because right when you're sick you can't be with you and just add to the burden of your mind by being angry with you." Said Mas Karang with a tone full of regret. "But you should know, Roses. I was like that, because I was very shocked at the same time I was worried about you. You know very well how the consequences are for people living with one kidney."


Silence, only the sound of water dominated us. And Mas Karang's gaze towards me really made me melt like a mertega who was exposed to the heat from the frying pan. How those eyes glare full of shade, romance, and sincere love of course, which for twenty-two years of my life I only found apart from Kak Melati.


"So since when.?" Ask the Rock again.


Enough Mas Karang knows, if Mas Karang is not the first to stop in my heart. However, the presence of Mas Karang in my day was the first color I had as a girl with a young man.


"So now when compared to your foster brother, where is my position for you, Rose.?" Ask the Coral.


I did not immediately answer Mas Karang's question, but instead I smiled knots at him and patted my chest while saying softly. "Here."


"Such sweet cotton candy." Said Mas Karang slowly then arrived the hand of Mas Karang was already on top of my hand, then looked up to grab my finger. "That's a special place." Continue by rolling one eye.


We went back to silence, enjoying this beautiful sin with the whisper of the devil that seemed to be a song for us. And it sank and sank, as we continued to tease and seduce each other, until the time for separation came.


"Well, I'll be busy once this month." Said Mas Karang just before we were about to split up on the highway.


"It's okay, I'll also be busy preparing for the exam." My answer.


"Roses." Said Mas Karang arrived.


"Yes." Yeah." I answered quickly.


"In these two months I'll be preparing to get into Specialist, so I'll be really busy."


"I know, you don't have to worry about that. I will pray for the best. So, cheer up." My words encouraged Mas Karang while removing the lollipop from my bag and thrusting it to Mas Karang. "This chocolate flavored lollipop will reduce stress." Imbuhku.


"Don't ask me what it's like, it'll be sweeter than this candy smile." Say it again with origin.


"Really, I was wondering what it's like to say sweeter than candy." Mas Karang said ambiguous, but success makes me trouble swallowing my saliva.


Mas Karang laughed widely, when he saw my expression. "I'm just kidding, Rose. But if it's really okay, too."


I threw my face away from Mas Karang, because I know right now my face must be reddened as a result of Mas Karang's words.


"Alright, I'm just kidding, Rose. I know it's a sin." Mas Karang ahirnya. "So did you like the crystal you loved back then." Continue Mas Karang and coincide with the angkot that I was waiting to come.


I was about to go into the lift and turn around looking towards Mas Karang. "I like the same crystal, but I prefer the one who gives it." My words quickly, even his swift horn, Mas Karang until silent in his place until angkot walk left him.
