The Delayed Soul
Chapter 24

The cring......!Crane.......!Crane.......! The alarm clock on my sleeping table rang loudly, I spontaneously sat down in surprise, as I remember coming home from campus I had not been bathing and clean, while I always set the alarm settings at six in the morning.

"That means I fell asleep last night?" I said after looking at the clockwork in the alarm.

I put my body back on the bed, it felt like my head was a little dizzy from waking up suddenly.

Because last night dreaming of Adam I immediately felt the mattress to my left to look for a cell phone, when I looked at the screen it turned out there were twenty incoming messages from Adam.

[Good morning my future wife, I just got to the apartment] 04.30

The contents of Adam's message made my cheeks flushed, I smiled myself reading it.

"That means that at dawn he just arrived and immediately informed, yaampun so sweetnya" said I.

[Good morning back my future priest, eh isn't there still afternoon huh?] My reply.

Long time no reply from Adam I decided to wait for him while praying at dawn.

After the morning prayers I immediately took a shower regardless of my phone.

In the bathroom I always think with Adam when I shouldn't be like that, finally because I keep thinking I'm ending the bath that has not been completed to see the phone hoping Adam returns the message.

Not until I walked five steps, my phone was already ringing indicating there was an incoming call.

When I checked it turned out to be a call from Adam, I was tired because I was still wearing a bath towel.

Immediately I ran to pick up her clothes and picked up her phone.

"Have you lifted it for so long?" He said after I picked up the phone.

"So it's still in Dam's bathroom" I answered.

"Mandi yes?" Just guessing.

"Yes this is because it wants a marathon with complex mothers" I replied lying.

"Well done but the bath?" Ask again.

"Yes, of course, dong" I replied again lying, but only half had not been completed.

"I miss very much you, I want to go back to Indonesia" he said.

"Just yesterday good-bye" I replied.

"This semester I'm sending you tickets to America, right?" Her request.

"I was busy Dam, Grandma asked to stay with Om Pram while my parents had a business trip so I had to go back and forth between Grandma" I replied.

"Well isn't his wife Om Pram sick anymore?" Ask.

"Eat that, grandma is already elderly so senile that deh, she wants to go to the house of Om Pram" said I.

"Judah, it is important that you keep your health, always be careful" he said.

"Yes dear" I answered stiffly.

"Udah first yes dear, I have to take a shower and rest because tomorrow start to the office" Pamitnya.

"Okay, take care of her heart" I said before hanging up.

After chatting with Adam on the phone, I resumed the bath that was not finished.

"Let's not look long, busy huh?" Greet complex mothers who are jogging.

"Oh yes, Bu Joko, the college assignment is stacked" I replied kindly.

"Yaudah yuk gather in the complex park, want gymnastics there" Invite another.

"Boleh ma'am, long time no body exercise it feels sagging all fat" answered me.

I followed the other mothers from behind, it turned out that there were so many who would follow gymnastics instructions.

We were divided into three groups according to their respective complexes, my part was joined by the residents of the next complex.

Enthusiasm they all deserve thumbs up, from the young to old age remains the spirit of exercise.

The gymnastics instructor started to turn on the sound, and took a warm-up position, looking ahead to exactly two people after I saw mothers who seemed very tired.

At first he refused but I kept forcing him not to do anything unwanted.

"Mom is sick or how does it look so tired?" My friendliness.

"One week ago I just got home from the hospital because my heart disease was relapsing" he explained.

"Yaudah here I bring the drinking water is still intact, mother drinks yes" I gave a small bottle of mineral water that I have opened the lid to him.

"Thank you so much, son, you're so nice when we don't know each other, if you may know what your name is? let me remember his kindness" he asked.

"My name is Tiar Bu, living in the Raflesia complex" I explained.

"My name is Saniah, just call Grandma Sanah because actually I am very old" he said.

"Then I will drive you home? what complex does Nek live in?" My toot.

"In Orchid Complex number 5 blocks 1 M Nak" he replied.

"Oh.means close, next-door neighbor huh Grandma? let me drop off" I helped Grandma Sanah to get up from her seat.

I rented a bicycle belonging to one of the complex mothers who were there to bring Grandma Sanah so that she was not tired of walking.

By raising him on the boncano I led a woman's bicycle plan with the front of the basket, sometimes he wiped my sweat with his small towel.

About fifteen minutes we arrived in front of the gate of his magnificent and beautiful house because there is a flower garden neatly arranged in the front yard, the collection of orchids is various, and there are many, maybe that's why this Complex is named Orchid Complex because the inhabitants are lovers of Orchid plants.

I pressed the bell on the wall to the left of the gate, twice I rang the bell and soon a young man wearing a t-shirt made up his shorts.

"Who is it?" Asked the young man who was only watching me.

"Sorry Mas this is me and Grandma Sanah was tired abis gymnastics" I replied.

I felt familiar with the man who was currently standing in front of me, like I had met before but I forgot where.

"When I had forbidden it was Nek, still ngeyel it was no longer good" he said.

"Yaudah yuk enter first Ma'am" Invite him.

"Oh no need Mas I just go home because this was a minjam bike" I explained.

"Don't like to refuse the invitation of others Tiar, not good" said Granny Sanah.

Finally I was forced to go into the house of someone I did not know for the first time.

When I got to the front porch I saw Pajero's car parked in the carport, after seeing the license plate I just remembered that the young man was the same man when I was going to visit Dina, and that means the grandmother she was referring to was critical is Grandma Sanah.

"Son let's go in, why is it even there?" Ask Grandma Sanah after coming back to me.

"Oh yes, Grandma" I answered briefly.

Me and Grandma Sanah went into the living room containing classic equipment, he seemed to love collecting antiques.

"This is Ma'am's drink" said the young man as he placed a cup of warm tea on a glass table.

"Yes thank you" said I then sat on a beautifully carved wooden chair.

"From earlier I observed this Mbak if not wrong who was using a Honda Civic Lunar silver color car?" Ask.

"Yes Mas right, his mas who used a pajero car brought his Grandma who was critical again huh?" My word.

"Yes right this is his grandmother who I brought at that time, is now healthy thanks to Ma'am also nih so Grandma is quickly handled" he said again.

"That's it, it's all because of the Almighty's will so Grandma can be healthy again" I said with a smile.

"It's so this Tiar that you tell me that kind-hearted beautiful woman Ga?" His grandmother told me that made me feel awkward.

"Ah Grandma is ashamed and there is a person" replied the man.

"You're a timid style, Yoga between Grandma to the room huh? tired of wanting to rest" Pinta Granny Sanah.

"Oh yes, then I all say goodbye to Nek" said my goodbye.

"Later to chat first with Yoga, Grandma can go to her own room Ga, you accompany Tiar aja" said Grandma Sanah then left the two of us in the living room.

The atmosphere became clumsy and awkward, which was between us was just quiet, because it was also noon I decided to say goodbye.

The young man led me to the gate so that all of you would lock the fence.
