“It looks like you are really cool?” Byan asked as he looked at Maureen who had been non-stop smiling. His face looked so happy without Byan knowing the reason.
“Gak nothing.” Maureen turned her face away from Byan and the smile remained visible.
“Ehm!” Maureen also cleared her throat to minimize the current feelings.
“I saw it Maureen. Are you very happy that you will go abroad and leave me?” Byan put a spoon and fork in his hand. His appetite suddenly disappeared because he saw Maureen so happy. He was deeply disturbed by the way Maureen smiled to herself. It's like the world's more fun without Byan.
“Which I might not be happy with. I want to heal abroad. It's free, don't think about work, not to mention the place I want to go is very beautiful. I must be feeling like I live there. Aye right?” maureen's great-grandson leaned over and smiled. His right eye blinked flirtatiously at Byan.
To be honest what makes this beautiful woman very happy is because she can solve one by one the problems she faces. It's all a relief, more fun than imagining going abroad. However, just this once he wanted to tease Byan, knowing the true feelings of Byan.
“Gosh.”
Byan snorted annoyedly. He leaned his body against the back of the chair. His appetite is completely gone when it should be a nice lunch for this lover. He never knew when they could eat together again? Eight months is it? Imagining that entire time, it had already made Byan really upset.
“Don't leave tomorrow. Just download one more week.” Byan said with annoyance. He gulped down his drink and put his glass roughly on the table.
“Dih, fuck. Riswan bought his ticket. He gave me the best airline and flight class. Riswan said the twenty-four-hour journey was long, so everything had to be comfortable so I could enjoy my trip. Akh, I'm impatient.” Maureen put her spoon and fork and propped up her chin with her right hand while imagining the pleasant journey.
Byan doesn't chim in. He took his cell phone and called Riswan.
“How many flights is Maureen?” Byan asked while still staring at Maureen. Maureen immediately leaned towards Byan, showing her curiosity. With his round, twinkle-filled eyes he looked at the curious Byan. Byan turned his face away from being annoyed by that expression. Errata, on the grounds of Maureen expressing such an expression.
“Why so early? Are there any flights that are a bit unlucky?” byan protests when Riswan answers at ten in the morning.
“Ya already.” Byan said with annoyance when he heard Riswan say that tomorrow's flight there is only one flight. Hah, Byan had no other choice but to agree to Maureen's departure.
“Where? What time will I leave tomorrow?” Maureen is still waiting for the good news from Byan.
Byan did not immediately answer, but sipped back his drink until it was completely finished. He needs to calm himself.
“Gosh, will answer aja long time. Mending me call Riswan.” Maureen complained to herself. A Maureen who sat set sat set, was unfamiliar with a thinking Byan.
“Waah, it turns out Riswan has sent his ticket. Flight's ten in the morning. Means I have to leave the house at delapanan. Yes, eight.” hours
“Ya so as not to jam. You know it's people's work hours. Instead of getting stuck, I'd better hang out at the airport. Can have breakfast there.” Maureen looks so excited and it sucks for Byan. He began to regret recommending Finland as his lover's destination country. It should be close, like Bogor. If he misses it could be easier.
“You are really Mo's spirit? You didn't forget that you wanted to leave me?” baby By's face looks sad.
“Yeah, I didn't forget. You said yourself that you wanted to give me time. Eight months in fact. It was you who said it yourself, not me. I'm sure eight months is enough time for us to fix ourselves. It's possible that by getting acquainted with new people, a lot of new understanding enters my head.” The beautiful woman had imagined many things that she would do later, in the country of the people.
“What does it mean to get acquainted with new people? Who would you like to meet?” Byan was starting to be vigilant. Though this morning he was very mature advising Maureen but now, his guts shrunk when his lover said that he would meet many people. What is included in Adam?
“Ya locals lah. I read in an online article, the natives of Finland are called Suomalaiset, genetically and culturally they are Nordic tribes. The Finns highly value egalitarianism. Their language is gender-neutral and tends not to be obsessed with titles and prefers to be modest. Finns are also known to be quiet and polite but they are also warm and sincere people. Wow, this is perfect for me. I'm sure, in one or two days I can get to know many people, both men and women.” The picture of the atmosphere there is so pleasant in the mind of this young woman.
“Women only, do not acquaintance with men.” Byan immediately mengultimatum.
“Dih, where can be gender-selective? If you want to live happily, do not like to be picky temen. Everyone can give us positive feedback. Besides, I'm used to a lot of men around me and all this time it's safe. You're the only one who made me miss.” The red lips pursed in annoyance at the reason he made sense.
Byan did not chim in, he just looked at Maureen. Honestly, he was very jealous of all the thoughts in his lover's head. If he could correct his words and say that he did not want his woman to go that far, especially with a long time. However, seeing Maureen who was so excited made Byan did not have the heart to forbid it. It might be true that Maureen said that their temporary separation could further strengthen their relationship and make them more mature.
Then what about the men who might be approaching Maureen? Can he control Maureen from having feelings for other men? Especially abroad, his way of life is free. How's kala....?
“Kok daydreaming? Did you eat it?” The gentle voice of the round-eyed woman resuscitated Byan whose mind had already reached Finland first.
“Udah.” The answer sounds weak. Of course, the meal was over because he was no longer tasteful.
“Yes, let's go to the lawyer's office. I want to finish everything.” immediately Maureen has gone first with a sling bag that she sipped on the right shoulder. This woman is left brain dominant. Rational and not too sensitive. Insensitive to her crumbling man's feelings.
“Iya.” Byan was forced to follow Maureen's wishes. They walked side by side and without hesitation the beautiful woman wrapped her hands around the man's arm. He also leaned his head on that sturdy arm.
“Your hand is comfortable, make your feel at home. I must be missing,” great-grandson Maureen with a small smile.
Byan replied with a gentle kiss on Maureen's head, but after that her mouth was wide open as if she wanted to eat this woman's head.
Argha! The tall man was anxious himself. Hah, Byan is sometimes that scary.
