Solar Throne
Curious

Gina sits in the seat of a pick-up car driven by Joko to go home to Surya first. He was not alone, Ayu, Surya's cousin accompanied him. Gina who sits at the very side of the cabin of this pick up car feels the morning sun start to warm her. Paved roads in this rice field area make it lulled. Along the way is a rice field with rice plants that are very soothing to his eyes. It reminds me of Grindelwald. A village in Switzerland that Gina came to a few years ago. The village is so beautiful that he had revealed to his father that he wanted to change citizenship and settle there. Unfortunately, her father did not give her permission.

"You're my only daughter. If you leave, then we're really the parents who lost their children."

"Just move, Pa. It won't change the status of our relationship."

"No, it can't." Pak Rangga replied firmly hearing his daughter's silly idea.

"What a difference does it make to live here or in Switzerland. It's like we never lived together. Papa prefers to stay in R-Company. Mama too."

"You're this..." Mr. Rangga is out of words.

"The shop you're not going anywhere. Especially changing citizenship. Just-there's. If you want, just take your S3 there."

"What S3? What's for?"

"The longer you go to school, the smarter you get."

"Why did I bother school to get a lot of degrees. In the end, I'll replace Papa."

"You think I'm gonna give you that easy R-Company?"

"Papa don't threaten me. If not me then who else." Gina still casually responded to her Papa.

"Yes of course. I'll definitely give it to you if I think you're worthy. But if you stay like this, don't hope. I'll definitely give it to someone else." Gina put her lips together after that. I can't believe what her father said. But it turns out that the thing he never worried about was now really made real by Mr. Rangga. Gina is not the leader of R-Company, but Surya. She did not expect her father to say anything serious at the time.

"Mbak... Mbak Gina hasn't had breakfast yet?" Ayu's voice resuscitated from her daydream all this time.

"Not yet." Answer Gina.

"Let's go eat somewhere nice." Ayu was very excited.

"All right." Gina gave a smile as a reciprocal to Ayu who had accompanied her.

The pick up car stopped at a stall on the right and left surrounded by rice fields. With a stall design made of bamboo, the impression of authentic and classic rustic is very felt. There were already a few people in the shop to eat.

"Sir, it's just an ordinary shop but the food's a famous champion." Ayu.

"really?" Ayu nodded.

"Mr Gina is a city person. What do you do with this food." Joko's voice suddenly after closing the car door and approaching the two women in front of the stall.

"Did Sister Gina like picky food?" Ask Ayu.

"Yes, sometimes." Gina replied casually as she walked closer to the stall.

"Well, it could be bad if Madam Gina doesn't eat here. We can be scolded by Mas Surya." Joko seemed agitated whispering to Ayu.

"Stupid Time with Mas Surya. He's not here."

"Sir Gina can complain to him."

"Just be wild. I'm obviously hungry." Ayu looked unconcerned and caught up with Gina getting into the stall.

Inside the stall Ayu saw Gina already ordering her food. Ayu seemed to be getting more and more happy because what Joko was worried about would not happen.

"Mom, I want a hot and wide omelet like that father's." Appoint Gina to a Father sitting not far from her eating with only her hands.

"Egg pickers huh, mbak?"

"Yes, that's the point, ma'am. I want that."

"Yes, ma'am." Answer the shop owner's mother is friendly.

"Bak, I'm sego pecel yo. Peyek'e sing akeh. Peyek teri." (Mom, I'm rice pecel huh. A lot of peyeknya. Peyek teri) said Ayu in Javanese. Gina looked at Ayu who was standing next to her. Ayu who felt noticed by Gina just smiled back at her gaze.

"Ehh, sampean, Nduk. Isuk tenan kok. Let's teapot endi?" (Ehh, you, son. It's so early in the morning. From where?) The shop owner's mother seems to know Ayu.

"Pecele not bali opo ga?" (Nasi pecelnya wear bali what not?)

"Ga nah, mbak. I want an ordinary sing." (No need, mbak. I want the usual.)

"I'm podo karo Ayu, mbak." (I am the same as Ayu, mbak) Sahut Joko who was waiting for Ayu to finish his order.

"Come." Answer the shop owner again.

Gina was already sitting at that long table waiting for her order to come. Ayu and Joko sit in line with Gina's desk.

"Ehm, Ayu." Call Gina. Ayu.

"So, who was that girl?" Gina finally asked what was on her mind.

"Mr Dinda?" Tanya Ayu made sure.

"Yes." Yeah."

"He's Surya's ex." Answer Ayu frankly. But after that Joko nudged Ayu's arm like she wanted to warn him. Ayu turned to Joko asking for an explanation of her treatment. But Joko instead played her eyes giving a certain signal. And Gina caught them both.

"That's Ma'am, Ayu means that Mbak Dinda is a former schoolmate Mas Surya. They were from Elementary School to High School always in the same school." Joko.

"Ahh, that's what I mean, Sister Gina." Ayu.

"Oh so yeah." Gina mangosteen pretended to just understand the explanation of the two of them. Though with the attitude of Ayu and Joko just now, Gina became more curious about what relationship Surya and Dinda had before. Whether they are really ex in the sense of ex-girlfriend or as the explanation Joko ex meant Ayu is a former schoolmate.

But when this morning saw Dinda came Surya like happy.

"Miss..." Surya's eyes sparkled to find the girl who looked from behind the door. Gina caught Surya's facial expression this time.

"You're here?"

"Hi all..." It turns out there's another girl coming in after Dinda. Ayu came with a bag and food.

"Come in, Nduk." Surya's mother invited Dinda and Ayu to enter. Two girls came in.

"How are you, Mom?" Ask Dinda to Miss Maryam, Surya's Mother.

Seeing the girl called Surya named Dinda was very familiar with her mother-in-law, Gina became curious who the girl really was. Maybe he was Surya's other brother.

"It's better. Maybe later or tomorrow we can go home."

"I'm sorry I came so early. That's because I have a day in the district so I have to come so early."

"No need to serepot this, Nduk. You're okay."

"It's okay, Mom. It's not troublesome at all. Coincidentally I saw Ayu was waiting for public transportation so it was just right we could go together." Dinda looked at Ayu who was sitting by the window holding her phone.

"Oh yeah, when did you come, Sur?" Now Dinda turned to look at Surya and took turns to look at Gina. At that moment Gina knew her eyes were beautiful. Dinda's plump eyelashes charmed Gina. He was not sure if the soft girl did eyelash planting let alone wear false eyelashes. The thick and plump eyelashes will make anyone hypnotized if they look at it.

"This morning, Din." Surya answered.

"You how are you?"

"I'm good."

"Finally you really became Master's mother." Hearing Surya's words, Dinda smiled.

"Thanks for your prayer too."

"Thanks to your hard work. Your ideals since childhood always make you eager to become a Teacher."

"Yes, thank goodness." Dinda's eyes could not be seen from Surya. His smile was also floating perfectly. Gina silently watched them while conversing. Not just lips, as if their eyes were talking to each other. Unknowingly Gina let out a heavy sigh, like something was pressing inside her chest. Surya heard ****** heavy breathing Gina.

"You tired?" Surya asked Gina a little whisper.

"Not really." Answer Gina.

"Alright, I have to go to the district hall immediately so I say goodbye first, ma'am." Dinda asked Surya's mother's hand to kiss. The girl was very polite and looked very respectful to the old man. It seemed that he came from a good family and was well educated by his parents.

"Surya, play to the house. Take your wife too. Let's eat rujak together like we used to." Dinda. Gina instead focused more on the word 'former' and thought they were indeed close a long time ago.

"Later we'll come."

"Can I come too?" Chirping Ayu suddenly. Though he seems busy with cell phones it turns out he is listening too.

"Of course I can. We were a rujak team long ago." Ayu looks happy. And after that Dinda left the hospital room Mr. Wiro. Gina looked at Dinda until she disappeared behind the door.

"Miss..." Call Surya who is beside him.

"You go home first to rest.

"How do I get home? Even your house next door I don't know." Gina whispered so as not to be heard by her mother-in-law sitting near her husband lying down.

"The sea will accompany you."

"What's wrong with me?" Hearing Surya say his name Ayu turned her eyes to Surya.

"You go home and accompany Ms. Gina first."

"alright. Am I a deadly bacteria or virus?" Surya, Gina and even Mother Surya frowned hearing what Ayu said.

"Why does everyone always want me to come home when I'm here. I'm 100% sterile. I always keep clean, diligently wash my hands and diligently help the elderly. So, why should I go home."

"Speak what you're talking about." Joko who just entered and heard Ayu nagging immediately silenced her mouth.

"Uhh, your hands smell of sambel. You've eaten lax food?" Ayu brushed off Joko's hand.

"Well, I'll take Gina and Ayu home." Joko does not care about Ayu and says goodbye to Surya.

"Yes, you also rest at home. Later in the afternoon just come back here with Mbak Gina."

"Yes, it's." Joko.

"Come on, Yu." Take Joko to Ayu who is still pouting. Gina said goodbye to Mother Surya and then walked out of the room. Surya's coming out to deliver.

"Miss, rest. You must have been tired all night barely sleeping at all." Gina nodded. He knew Surya did not even close his eyes for a moment, but instead he told him to go home to rest.

"You're not coming?"

"I will be here to accompany my mother waiting for my father to replace Joko. You go home first."

"I'm at your house alone?"

"Oh my God, this newlywed is inseparable." Tempta Ayu who heard their talk. Gina and Surya looked at Ayu together.

Ever since meeting Dinda, Gina's feelings have become restless for some reason. And his anxiety made him want Surya to always be with him. He did not want to leave Surya anywhere else without her.

"Surya..." Call Gina. Surya who had originally looked at Ayu who was already heading towards the car, now turned his face to Gina again.

"Yes Miss."

"Don't forget to eat." Finally that sentence came out of Gina's lips. Not another sentence that was already in his head.

"Yes Miss." Surya replied with a smile. Once again Gina thumped at Surya's smile. It made him hurriedly turn his face and immediately catch up with Ayu as he did not want Surya to hear a thump in his chest.

"Come, are they close?" Ask Gina again while feeding her breakfast.

"It's like playmates, they're familiar." Ayu replied rather awkwardly. Gina was more and more convinced Ayu was covering something from her.

"You're sure they're just former schoolmates?"

"Bak Gina dear..." Ayu wrapped her hand on Gina's shoulder. Gina felt strange about Ayu's sudden actions. They have only met twice. Now and on her wedding day that time, but Ayu was already able to get this close to her.

"Whatever happened in the past Mas Surya is no longer meaningful. The most important thing now is that Gina's mom finally managed to have it." Ayu sok sage. Gina laughed at the high school boy.

"By the way, you don't go to school?" Ask Gina.

"I? I'm ditching. I'll have to accompany Gina."

"Ahh, that's just your excuse." Chirps Joko.

"Shut up."

"I know why you want to be in the hospital so much. So you have a reason to ditch, right?" Joko. Ayu whose mode is read by Joko becomes a joke.

"Whatdidyou say? No, it's not like that. I'm worried about sirde."

"really?" Joko sneered. Ayu Manyun was upset. Gina just smiled looking at the two people beside her right and left.
