Tama And Ratna

Tama And Ratna
38. Old friend


Today Ratna's trial. He had successfully completed his final task and he was currently in charge of it. If Ratna is usually busy preparing Tama's needs, now reversed. Tama is busy preparing for Ratna's needs. After the morning prayers, he stepped into the kitchen and grabbed the frying pan to fry the eggs. Tama broke 2 eggs directly onto the frying pan then sowed them with a pinch of salt and pepper powder. After he finished frying, the water he had heated was boiling and immediately Tama used to make 2 glasses of warm tea.


"Oh cie who cooks his own breakfast," the newly seduced Ratna stepped up from inside the bathroom.


"Once in a while encourage my wife who wants a trial. The spirit yes Mas can not nemenin but Mas sure you can," Tama told Ratna.


"Here I am finished. Take a bath there, anterin me first dong," asked Ratna.


"It is with pleasure, ma'am. Adiratna Aji," replied Tama then handed her job to Ratna just like that.


Tama drove Ratna first to the campus, Since then the sun seemed shy to appear and now it was raining. Fortunately they so use the Brian, otherwise the papers that Ratna brought can all wet. Ratna continued to check sheet by sheet of her research even as the car kept going and Tama saw it making her know even more how hard this wife was trying to get that title.


"Dec, don't you get dizzy? Your eyes will hurt" said Tama.


"There's only one thing I have to check first" Ratna said without looking at Tama.


"Dek Ratna, you'll be fine. There is nothing you need to check anymore. Your preparations are ripe. You have also been studying presentations since last week. I'm sure my dear wife will definitely graduate with a satisfactory grade" Tama said, stroking Ratna's head with her hand free of steering.


"Mas said it wasn't because of my husband, was it? Because I'm really good, right?"


"Yes dear.., I don't believe it. He is also an S2 graduate. I graduated first, believe me everything will be fine. The result will be what you are told to know, yes" said Tama.


"Surely."


Once in the campus courtyard, Ratna immediately said goodbye. He kissed Tama's hand and asked her for her blessing just stepped down from the car and ran into the campus. Tama makes sure Ratna gets inside and she runs her car back to the base. He has a lot to do today. This week he will begin the selection of the applicants. Tama is responsible for performing physical endurance tests.


It didn't take long for Tama to get to her office. There is already a map containing a list of names that he will test today as well as his assessment sheet. Tama read it at a glance, took a hat and draped his whistle then walked towards the field after reporting to Mr. Slamet first. Mr. Slamet is the commander now. He eventually took over all of Mr. Somat's work to organize and manage the Headquarters of his side.


"Oh yes Aji, before I forget. As of today Nesya will be your assistant. And for the personnel who will fill the vacancy in your division have arrived and have reported this morning. We'll introduce it later in the afternoon at the apple. Don't forget to teach him whatever he needs to do" said Mr. Slamet.


"Good Sir."


Finished getting the order, Tama immediately carried it out. He went straight to the field with some senior stars who joined his team. After opening the test with a word or two, Tama immediately gave the testers an order to carry out the task. Starting from the test run, push-ups, sit-ups, and other physical tests carried out under the supervision of Tama directly.


"Enough. Arya, let Ishoma go first. We will continue at 1pm" Tama told Arya, who was standing in front of him.


"Yudh, stop stop. Ishoma had already made an adhan," this time Tama shouted at Yudha who was on the other side of the field.


Tama left the field first because he knew that if he stayed there, the boys would not be able to relax. They saw their frightened faces when they saw Tama watching them from this morning. Tama walks to the mosque to perform dhuhur prayers. As soon as she finished praying, Tama hurriedly grabbed her phone and directly contacted Ratna who should have finished the trial.


"Mas Tama...!!!" ratna shouted from the other side, making Tama slightly keep her phone away from the ears because she was shocked by the sudden loud noise.


"Waalaikumsalam," rebuked Tama with a soft tone.


"Oh yes Assalamualaikum."


"Waalaikumsalam, how did your court deck work?"


"Great success Mas. Woah bad I didn't think I would get a rich test like that from the examiner Mas, ahh I really want to scream want to hug you now," ratna said again that Tama was sure his wife said it while prancing with excitement.


"Later hug it yes, now pray first gih. Is prayer not yet?"


"No longer pray to me."


"Oiya forgot. Yaudah had lunch on the deck a lot. One of your burdens has been lifted. Keep this up if you want to shop whatever you want just shop. The money is transfer now" Tama said.


"No ah, buy it later with Mas. Both have dinner. Want potato doughnuts too, want cimol too, want grilled octopus as well, want a mercon meatball, want a front angkringan hospital, ahh I want it all," Ratna still with his exited tone.


"Hus, Mother your stomach is exploding. Buy all but not at one time. There are still many days. You snack every day can be original..," Tama deliberately hangs his sentence because he knows Ratna can continue it.


"Stay healthy. Drink enough water, sleep regularly, and eat a nutritious diet" Ratna could finish Tama's sentence easily.


"Duh pinternya ma'am my favorite doctor. It's already Dek, Mas want to continue working first. What time will I get picked up later in the afternoon?"


"OK."


Tama then turned off the call and continued her way into her study. When he entered, there was only Nesya inside while the others went nowhere. Tama suddenly realized something, when the girl called him and invited him to lunch, he realized that the work desk located right next to Nesya's desk was like uninhabited even though Mr. Slamet this morning said the person who would fill the table had come and had reported. But let alone finding where the person is, he doesn't even see any signs of life on that table. The table is still so neat, clean, there are no bags or jackets there.


"Yes, which new personnel did Mr. Slamet say?" ask Tama.


"I don't know, I haven't seen it since this morning either. Where ya?"


"Whose name? Keep moving from where?"


"He said his name was Mr. Bagas, the rank of IPTU, a transfer from the Banjar Police. In the past he graduated from AKPOL was also rich in Bang Aji, maybe Bang Aji was known because if he saw his rank means the difference in age is not far," said Nesya.


Hearing the name made Tama freeze. He obviously knows that name. Tama knows very well. Bagaskara Rangga, Tama's classmate and roommate in the second year.


"Bang Aji...?"


"Yes?"


"Kok ngalamun, tilted the glass," said Nesya saw Tama speechless.


Tama hastily fixed the position of the glass in her left hand then returned to her desk to start lunch. Suddenly his appetite disappeared instantly. I don't know if she feels something that bothers her. He also remembered some events that made him and Bagas quarrel until lost contact first.


Tama immediately finished her lunch so that she would not be late to return to the field. Just a few steps, not until he turned in the hallway he finally met the owner of the empty table. She finally reunites with her old friend. With Bagaskara who was so looking at Tama he immediately turned his face as if he did not know who the half-dead man wanted to say hello to that.


***


It wasn't until the afternoon that Ratna was on campus. In fact, the hospital where he worked loved him more. Ratna gets a call to help Rati run a surgical procedure because her assistant suddenly gets sick while Rati is unlikely to ask the seniors for help. Fortunately Ratna did not forget to tell Tama. If he forgets pity, it's night. Isya's time has passed. Cancel already the sightseeing event that they had planned this afternoon.


Ratna could only sigh, even though she had imagined that she would have fun with her husband tonight. It's planned to be canceled, rain anyway. It's true that Ratna isn't destined for life. Though he only wants sugar-studded donuts that are usually sold in the park near the Mahakam River. The price is not much, when compared to lunch every day is clearly more expensive lunch.


Amidst her complaints about the arrival of rain at the wrong time Ratna reached out her hand to make her palm immediately showered with water spots that began to fall more and more rapidly. Ratna felt a moment of peace recalling the sweet memories Tama and Ratna used to do when the rain arrived. Memories of horror films, of a glass of hot chocolate, a plate of bakwan or memories of the soft and warm embrace of Tama.


"Oh?"


Ratna just realized, it turns out that next to her there is also a woman who does the same thing with her. The difference is, if Ratna can stand up straight, then this woman is not. She was just sitting on her wheelchair but Ratna could see her smile was very sweet, sincere, she was beautiful.


"Good night," said the woman. Really, his voice was soft.


"Eh i.., yes good night," said Ratna greeting back.


"You just got home from the bus? Are you waiting for an invitation or looking for a taxi?" tanyakanya.


"Yes, I'm waiting for an invitation. My husband said he was going to pick me up" Ratna said.


"Zahrah...!!!"


Suddenly from the side, more precisely from their left there was a man who shouted while running small approaching Ratna and the woman who was sitting in this wheelchair. She was wearing the same uniform as her husband. Brown uniform and also carrying the same colored beret, blue beret. Ratna had no thoughts. She just thought maybe this guy knew her husband.


"Sorry who?" ask her to Ratna.


"Oh right too, I don't know your name yet either. My name is Zahra. Azzahra Mawara," said the woman as she reached out to Ratna.


"My name is Ratna. Adiratna," replied Ratna with a smile.


"Honey, go in yuk. The rain starts rushing, you get sick later," said the man, focusing on the woman.


"I'm sorry Mr. Ratna, maybe we can meet again next time. Dah...," she waved at Ratna while the man who seemed to be her husband started pushing his wheelchair back into the hospital.


Ratna kept looking at the two from where she stood. It was beautiful to see that there was a man who was still so loyal to take care of his wife who was so sick. The woman named Zahra was very lucky. Already her husband is handsome, loving, he is also loyal. Hopefully Zahra can be eager to undergo treatment.


Ratna's daydreams then fell, when a man who was no less good now patted his shoulders. Obviously, who else if not Pratama Aji her husband. He's kind, loyal, loving, but he's kind of a bitch. If it has been a recurrence of anything he can make joking materials. If not until Ratna sulks where she wants to stop. And another one that astonished this man. He said he graduated from S2 law science, a police officer who is respected by many people but innocently he left the car door wide open under the rain so. At once Ratna's flower-flowing heart was instantly gone. The flowers instantly withered because of Tama's stupid behavior.
