LDR is heavy. But if run with a heart that is iklas, everything will pass easily. Farewell is necessary, in order to know how beautiful longing is. How terrible it is when hearts longing for each other are reunited. The gray color will change with thousands of butterflies.
~Heart Graduation 2~
My stomach kept rebelling asking to be filled immediately. Since this afternoon I have been so lazy to come down. Grandma and the rowdy trio kept calling out to me. But I was really lazy to get out of the room. My mood disappeared instantly when Alan told me that this week he couldn't reach me. Alan could even be busy until next month.
But I put aside my ego. I have to take care of my health anyway. If I was sick, Alan would be anxious and disruptive to his activities there. Ara spirit, you can definitely get through it all.
"Eh, down also finally. Already satisfied with the same gel roll?" ask Rizka. I didn't respond to him at all. I headed towards the kitchen.
"So far from now Grandma told me to eat, at this hour just came out of the room. What's up huh? There's no way Grandma's granddaughter got angry about the trouble this afternoon, right?" I looked at my granny. I can't hide my sadness.
"Why? You miss Alan?" ask grandma. I'm nodding. Grandma came up to me and took me in a chair.
"Patience, only a little more will you be able to get back together. Indeed in the household it must be seasoned with trials and obstacles. And this is all a trial for you, if you can get through it all. Your household will increase by one level. But remember, baby, the higher the level. More problems will be going to hit. Like a tree, the higher it grows. Then the stronger the wind that will hit the tree." said grandma. I smiled at Grandma's presentation. I just realized, mother and grandmother so many similarities.
"Thank you Grandma, Ara will always remember what Grandma said." I hugged my grandmother tightly.
"Yes, eat first. You need to be healthy, not too thin. It will complicate the pregnancy." said the grandmother. I laughed when I heard the word 'pregnant'. I had to be patient to wait for his presence to return. I will always wait and wait for it.
"Bra's praying is always granny." I said kissing Grandma's cheek. Grandma smiled and kissed me on the forehead. My only hope is one, which is to continue gathering like this. True sung by BCL, if the most valuable treasure is family.
After dinner, I joined my whole family joking. Especially the twins who always make a fuss.
"Eh, the eldest brother is already present. Have you been full all day without eating? How many times?" rizki said with an indistinct smile. I pursed my lips and sat down next to Papah. I put my head on Papah's shoulder.
"Extm... Which LDR-an is upset?" exclaimed uncle Haikal.
"Udah misses it hard pa. Almost a year less in the same Belay My hubby ", said Rizki. This kid if he doesn't make trouble once can't what? Make a sprain.
"Whispering." ketusku. I pulled Papah's hand and hugged him. I miss papah very much.
"Sister, marriage is also still spoiled same papah." My little brother is speaking. Gini nih if there are two viruses, surely Azka will be infected.
"Biarin, anyways this is still the brother of the deck. You envy ain't never spoiled with papah?" ledek. I could see Azka putting on an annoyed face. Hiz... Let me know, who told him to piss me off.
"How was your college, baby?" tanya papah stroked my head. I looked at Papah and smiled.
"Current pah, Ara just finish Ara's thesis a little more" I replied. Papah smiled as he embraced me.
"Ara, how's Alan doing?" ask aunt Syila.
"Well tan, it's just that Alan is very busy with his research. Alan wants to finish his studies in a year and a half, so he has to go after the target." I replied. Aunt Syila nodded.
"LDR is heavy. But if run with a heart that is iklas, everything will pass easily. Farewell is necessary, in order to know how beautiful longing is. How terrible it is when hearts longing for each other are reunited. The gray color will change with thousands of butterflies."
I can't believe Haikal's uncle's words are so poetic. But every word is true.
"Wow, it looks like papa can already make a poem. The word papa. Agree to you?" rizki said embracing Rizka.
"Hmmm... Could too. But since when can papa be content? Usually, you only know hospital equipment and diseases... Come on and answer me, where did you learn?"
I laughed when I heard Rizka's question. Everyone laughed, so the atmosphere of the house was getting warmer.
"From your mama.." said the uncle embracing aunt Syila. Everyone laughed again. I looked at the mother who was serving a snack. I got up and helped my mother.
"Well, this is the old cake, right? What the hell is his name? Ara forgot?" askaku when looking at light cakes typical of Aceh. Aunty used to say what the name of the cake was, but I forgot.
"Keukarah, and this one is called bhoi cake" said Rizka while eating the bhoi cake she meant. Bhoi cake is a kind of sponge, but many forms. Most of the fish that you bring.
"Sister Ra, tomorrow is busy?" ask Rizka. I shook my head because my mouth was still full of cake.
"Em, accompany me? Buy college needs that are still lacking." he said while looking at me expectantly.
"Emmm..why?" I pretend to think.
"Sister, let's dong please. Want huh? Kaka treat deh. Whatever Ra wants." he said, shaking my hand.
"Yes, but tomorrow you have to buy food at a Japanese restaurant? I haven't eaten there for a long time" I said while playing both of my eyebrows.
"Ok Sipp, the important thing is that you have to go around the Mall" he hugged me so tightly. If you want it, it must be sticky.
"Yes, there ah don't be caught by crazy virus from you again" I said while chuckling. Rizka pursed her lips. I laughed and pinched both of his cheeks in an agitation.
"Sick brother, red later cheeks kaka." whine while stroking his cheeks.
"Kiki, red cheeks right?" tanya Rizka complained to the glasses.
"Yes, it's like a rotten tomato." said Rizki who was greeted with laughter by everyone. I embrace Rizka and hold her tightly.
"Tonight accompany brother to sleep huh? Who knows if you need a friend to confide in." I said while menoel cheek.
"let's just say Ra's brother wants to confide, right?" tanyakanya. I quickly shook my head, what do I want to do?
"Bored of sleeping alone, so are you?" doors again.
"Yes, but tonight is it?" said it. I'm very happy.
"Bra, Rizka. Massage Grandpa's feet." said grandfather, Rizka and I immediately approached grandfather. Since childhood, Rizka and I have been massaging Grandpa's feet a lot. We will be happy to follow his wishes.
"Grandfather, it's been a long time we haven't massaged grandfather's feet. If it feels different, please forgive me cake." I said while pouring olive oil on grandfather's feet.
"Em, since childhood it has never changed. You guys are amazing." said the grandfather we greeted with laughter. Our laughter continued until the drowsiness began to strike and in the end everyone dispersed one by one.

"Sister, how could you like Alan's brother? Tell me about your love story."
I smiled at Rizka's incessant chatter since then. He said he didn't want to confide, uh it turns out that a thousand words he poured out.
"Emm.our love story let it be a secret. Obviously, my brother loved Alan so much and vice versa. For sure, if it really is love. Must prove it by deeds, not just by sweet words."
"We did not go through a time of courtship, even though since childhood we were always together who were bound by a word of friend, to eventually become friends for a lifetime semati." I explained. I looked at the silent Rizka while staring at the ceiling. I don't know what the girl was thinking.
"Sister, is it true that love is beautiful and always makes the heart happy?" tanyakanya. I smile.
"Yes, love is beautiful. Love always brings happiness. But many people misrepresent love and blame love when they are heartbroken. They are the ones who put love wrong. True love never hurts, because love doesn't have to have." I said. Imagine what love is like, I want to keep smiling. I close my eyes, the first thing I see is my husband's face. How sweet it is when he smiles. I touched my chest that was pounding.
"Sister Ra and brother Alan are very lucky. You have been reunited since childhood and continue to unite until now." said Rizka. I tilted my body so I could look at him.
"That's called destiny, no one knows who our soul mate is. Maybe the person we're so close to, the person we never expected, the person we once hated and even the person we always dreamed of. It all depends on the sincerity of heart to accept whoever our soul mate is." I said. Rizka tilted her body. I could see the net of his eyes clearly. It looks like he's in love.
"May Rizka's destiny be like my sister's, get what we always dreamed of" she touched my cheek.
"Aamiya.. Clearly, this time strengthen your prayer. And remember, don't put hope on people. But beg and hope for the creator. Rest assured, God never sleeps." I pinched his cheek slowly. Then we smiled and looked at each other. Then the drowsiness began to attack, I closed my eyes to welcome a beautiful dream. Hope tomorrow is a better day than the day before.
