Tone's tears haven't stopped flowing since she knew it wasn't just her who was hoping for Sam.
Yesterday Sam told me that there was a girl named Tiara who was visiting her mother. Just because Nada heard someone's carefree voice when she called Sam.
Not satisfied just like that, Nafa changed vidio call mode to know the face with a soft voice that was with his fiancee.
"If I wasn't, you wouldn't have told me, either!"
"Say, whatever it is you'll tell!"
"At least, even if I can't help much, as long as I know your problem, I'll be relieved to feel needed. Just for a story, for example. I just want to feel close even if we're far apart."
"Atau .. No, no! Maybe ... You deliberately long there so you can be close to the Tiara_Tiara!"
A number of accusations glide smoothly following a heart that is wrinkled. Moreover, Sam actually turned off the phone after telling Nada to rest.
It made Nada bear the increasingly mountainous annoyance.
A few days later, they rarely exchanged messages.
The tone is silent, because he needs a calm mind. As for Sam, he just needs to be understood and heard. Not accused in such a way.
...***...
"Ciee, that's out of hanimuuunn." Tone throws jokes at Bella as soon as her best friend appears at the door of the teacher's room. Bella's been on leave for a week and just got back in today. Nada herself just returned from a workshop in the district.
"Apasii," whispered Bella manyun as she approached her desk.
"First, yes, adek adek. Understand to tarub. Mothers, this is so much. Until it's dizzy, think about it." Yuni said as she held up the bag with the phone stuck to her ear. He waved a goodbye sign, again busy talking to his opponent.
"Be careful, Ms. Yun," said Nada cheerfully. Even though the one in the court has gone far.
Next up was Nada and Bella in that room. With Bella who was busy sifting through the ledger at the table. While Nada, he smiled ignorantly by resting his head on the arm piled on the table.
"Oh, duh, his face was red roaring that way." The tone now raised his eyebrows with a mischievous smile as Bella glanced at him. "The story donng, Bubelle!"
Tone blush on the catapult Bella with smiles on the complete lips that cut funny. He put his books and tools in a bag. Without intending to reply to Nada's joke.
"Bubelle, not cool, ah. Don't stingy. Sharing that experience can definitely be a reward, you know!" Nada now follows Bella's steps out of the teacher's room. Holding the backpack on the right shoulder.
Time is gone home. Tone just needs a real interlocutor. But a little reluctant, because his best friend now has a husband to take care of.
"Heh, he said still pajik. Which can be so in the story to minors . Aya-aya bae."
"Here you are, little doang, Bubelle. Love leaks, tips or what, that is. Not the tutorial story." While waiting for Bella to give an answer, Nada is now busy looking for contacts in every bag of her bag.
"In Gugel, a lot. Just look for it there. Besides, you're still eight months la_.. uh, eight months, yeah." Bella actually began to guess the estimated contract of Nada which is still more than one semester.
Bella stopped her steps, with Nada also stopping of course.
It makes, Nada remembered Sam the longer the plan of his return. Adding to the tightness lodged in the chest. Trying to do well in the midst of a small storm storm that began to arrive.
"Well, right, well, right. Turn in tangent, a little bit. It's melow." Bella began to see the sad look behind the carefree face that Nada showed.
Bella holds both shoulders of Nada who is now just grim. "Still fretting about you, just like that Tiara-Tiara?" terka Bella and Nada nodded sadly. Without the ba-bi-bu, Nada tells Bella all the unexpected things about Tiara. He must be applied to someone, because he does not want to bear prejudices that are not necessarily true.
"His name too, Nad's man! The Deket can only escape, especially those far away. That's why you pay little attention, cake. Not only waiting for Sam who calls or video calls. Once in a while it's you, who's the initiative to make the font first."
Bella pulls Nada to sit in a long chair in front of the canteen. There was no rejection from Nada and it made Bella believe that Nada needed a friend to talk to.
"Udah is not his time, if men, well, must be active first. It can start with us-we, the women .Especially if it is halal, this cake. I was a wife. The initiative first became a reward field, said Mr. Ustadz. Cool, right."
The tone nodded in a nod and it made Bella satisfied. Bella's joking advice made Nada comment a little smile on her lips.
"Yes, thank you, yes, Brother Bella."
"Duh, kasian. If you have a chance, talk about it carefully. Ademin, tuh, head. Don't be jealous." Bella knows how scared Nada is if Sam really wavers.
Then they both end their stories. More precisely, Bella told me how she adjusted to her husband during the week. Nothing is instant. Everything needs a process. From the one who sleeps alone, now there is a bedmate. From being the master of the room, now have to share the room as well. Yes, the adjustment of the smallest thing with his partner.
While in Manado, Sam was accompanying Tantri who was in Lazer therapy. Because with that method, the development of Tantri is increasing. As a result, this week Sam routinely deliver Tantri for therapy.
"Sam, there's a call from Pakde. Hp, you're silent, to!" Alif came and gave Sam's phone that was left on the dashboard of the car. " Let's lift, first! Let's mama, same with me!"
Sam nodded as he grabbed the phone from Alif's hand. Then pull out of the room.
"Udah, mama don't think, Sam. He's so good, it's time to have a lot of problems."
Tantri was not satisfied with Alif's answer. But she was quite silent while thinking about her youngest child. Since the call, Sam hasn't shown up.
"That's Sam, Ma." Alif pointed at Sam who was standing leaning against the car door.
The three immediately left the hospital. During the trip, Alif told Sam what the doctor said. However, seeing Sam's serious face with his focus on the flat object in hand made Tantri curious and refrained from asking questions.
Once at home, Tantri could not wait patiently. Asked what Sam's problem, until now looks skinny in his eyes.
"Nothing, Ma. There was only a delay in delivery. So the workshop pakde until empty stock. And this was a quick send from Sam's workshop."
"Related, like that?" ask Tantri to investigate.
Sam said that's all. Although there are actually more complicated problems. The tone exploded again, just because Sam yesterday had taken a wrong step.
That is by saying about Tiara. Hoping with honesty, Nada can understand and not misunderstand. But, once again. Still Sam became the wrong party because it was just telling about how the Tiara who is now around him.
"Honestly, wrong. Diem, moreover. He wanted how, anyway, Nada," his grunts as dozens of his calls were not welcomed.
"Take this test before you get married, Sam. If you can get through this, you can graduate. But ... don't settle for here. The marriage test will last as long as you are together." Still Alif so calming tonight.
In accompanied by two cups of coffee and market snacks that Sam bought after the magrib, the two were exchanging stories.
"Your wife-to-be is just jealous, Sam."
"The rich man'S tone can be jealous, Mas." There is a sense of pleasure that tickles if it is true what Alif said just now. But Sam tried to pull it off. If he was jealous, he would have spoken, right. But this ...
"You're really insensitive, yes, Sam!" Alif began to get upset and preferred to sit still sipping the twine of tobacco that is pinned between the middle and index fingers.
"Papa's hot, like, Sam." Alif said after a long silence.
"I mean, Mas?" sam asked not yet understood the meaning of his brother's words.
"Papa has not been passionate about Tiara," replied Alif who now blew a thick white smoke billowing in the air.
"If I said, anyway. For you have spoken from heart to heart with Tiara. So, maybe he's been sincere, and talking to papa. That's why now papa's not talking about him anymore, right."
It was true that Sam had spoken from heart to heart to Tiara. That's because, Sam no longer knew what to rebuke in any way for the girl's kindness. Which ultimately made him uncomfortable.
"Somehow, it would be stupid for Tiara to still expect the unemployment of your cake." Alif again made a soft voice.
This time Sam glanced cynically at Alif. Makes the brother chuckle. It is far from the creepy impression presented on his charismatic and assertive face. Alif's strapping body with the right shape, is now a concern for Sam.
This was the only thing that made Sam jealous of his older brother. If you look at yourself who are increasingly thin is not maintained. Moreover, he was deprived of sleep for a long time. Since Tantri was sick of course.
"If only you were twins, Sam. I will definitely support Tiara if she becomes a sister-in-law."
"Non-fault!" Sam snorted at Alif's ridiculous opinion. He was still dizzy how Nada could be soft again and not careless.
Alif glanced at Sam who had no intention of discussing this then smiled slightly. "When are you coming home, Sam?"
"don't know. Not talking to me again." Sam grabs a stick of Roko* Alif and ignites it with fire. He had to let go of his fret by running on this tobacco. In fact, Nada has warned not to smoke anymore.
"If I think, anyway. That bad tone is just a cry, Sam."
It made Sam chuckle suddenly. "Where's kangennya? People if the phone is just a berserk!"
"That's the problem. Maybe it's the kind of person who's hard to express feelings. So yes .. with his behavior. He vaped it."
Sam nodded small. Making Alif ringing.
"This is seriously insensitive, about this!" Alif's laughter exploded as a narrowed gaze from Sam.
Is it true that the nada is childish just because it misses me? But, what might be missing. But if there is no sweetness? Bizarrely.
But, it's also good that Nada is jealous, right. It means he's afraid of losing me.
This time Sam's smile was perfect. Imagining the face of Nada who was urgency made him increasingly miss the fierce figure across the island there.
How else, so too, my future wife. Strangely again, why am I even happy, if he is angry because he is jealous.
