The Delayed Soul
Chapter 36

Today I went back to college because there will be a final semester exam, not to feel like my college will be over soon.

Even without Dita but our lives must continue to run must not be too late in sadness, so my heart that tries to strengthen itself.

Although actually the lecture felt less enthusiastic, even me and Dina avoided the places we often visited the three of us so as not to remember too much memories with him, he said, because this exam is the determinant of our graduation if the mind is not focused it can not pass.

After the exam was over I went straight home because grandma was sick and very spoiled with me so Mom called me to come home soon.

If she wants to eat, shower and sleep with me at home, she doesn't want to be with Pastri at all.

"Grandma's eating?" I asked after sitting on my grandmother's bed.

"Not yet Tiar, will wait for you" he replied lightly.

"Well, what is it? if Tiar goes to college what night?" Ask again.

"Well, grandma is going to wait" he replied again.

"It can't be that granny, how does grandma want to heal if it's this hard?" I told Grandma.

"Grandmother is not healed also not what is important can be near Tiar continues" he replied lightly.

"Don't say that ah, grandma must heal again until Tiar successfully continues to marry until he has children" Chirukku.

"Had to have twins?" Said.

"What's that?" Ask surprised.

"Yes let this house rame" he replied smiling.

"Yes, yes it all depends on the same Almighty who gives his sustenance" said.

"Yaudah let's go down to lunch under the granny" Take me.

"Corn! let's go!" Reply with passion.

I helped Grandma get out of bed and switched to sitting in her wheelchair, we got off in the elevator, although our house is only two floors but papa deliberately built an elevator to make it easier to bring grandma up and down out of the room because it is located on the second floor.

We ate in the back garden while enjoying the view of flowers that were blooming and some fruit trees that had begun to bear fruit.

This lunch Bik Inah cooks prawns sambal padang, fried chicken, and vegetable lodeh that do not forget the delicious sambal terasinya.

Usually if papa at home mom is the one who cooks from breakfast to dinner while Bik Inah only helps, because papa is in Singapore so the one who cooks is Bik Inah.

"How is Adam? how come Grandma never heard you tell me about him?" Ask grandma suddenly.

Instantly I choked in shock at hearing the question from grandma.

"Loh why? drink up! drink up! drink up!" Grandma's orders while offering me a glass of water.

"You're not eating it slowly anyway, so choke" he said again.

"Sorry Grandma" I felt guilty.

"Jaudah let's eat again" he ordered again.

I then continued eating again, grandma still continued to watch me but I pretended not to notice.

"Slow down" he reminded me again.

"Yes Grandma" I answered briefly.

"What about Grandma you asked me, haven't you answered?" Ask again.

"Oh that, Adam is fine, just lately we are busy with each activity so rarely communication" I answered a little lie.

"Thank God if you are all right, may you last until the time comes" he said.

"Oh yeah grandma, Tiar can ask you something?" My toot.

"Can you ask me what, baby?" He answered after swallowing his last mouthful.

"It used to be said papa same mama married without blessing huh grandma?" Ask again.

Grandma was silent for a moment before she answered.

"Where do you know?" Ask him curious.

"Have heard my mother's story" I replied hesitantly.

"It shouldn't be told like that" he murmured.

"Grandmother will tell me" he answered.

"So that's why grandma doesn't approve papa and mama?" I asked after grandma finished telling me.

"Yes Tiar, grandma regretted because until the end of his life grandfather could not meet him with his only grandchild" Does not feel clear details out of the corner of the eyes of the grandmother.

"Grandmother do not be sad dong, grandfather there will be sad, right now we have gathered" said I while hugging and trying to calm him.

"Yes, baby, thank you for accepting and caring for your grandmother at home" he said again.

"Em..honey grandma" said I tightened my arms.

Drt....!Drt.....!Drt....!

"Your phone sounds it, maybe from Adam, pick it up first!" His order.

"Oh yes from Adam Grandma, I'm sorry to pick up first" My pamphlet to grandma.

°°°°°°°°

"Hello Dam" My greeting after picking up the phone from him.

"Cock Dam, baby?" His protest.

"I'm busy, what's wrong?" Ketus.

"For PM, are you really good?" Ask.

"No, there are more thoughts because of many tasks" I answered a little familiar with the situation.

"Why are you, baby?" Ask again.

"What's the importance anyway? you still want me? isn't there anything better?" Accuse me without basis.

"meaning?" Confused reply.

"Excuse me sir has been waiting in the meeting room" said a woman who sounded vaguely.

"In five minutes I'll be there" replied Adam.

"There is a wait!" My orders.

"Later on, I'll still talk to you" he said.

"I want to jog have been waiting for the mothers of the complex" Without waiting for an answer from him I immediately disconnected our phone.

Back I kept my phone in my pocket and walked up to Grandma.

"Have you called?" Grandma asked because I was only chatting for five minutes.

"Oh, this is Adam's mother meeting" I answered lying.

"Grandmother wants to go upstairs or mash wants to be here first?" I asked grandma.

"Here alone, you if you want to go on a break is not what grandma already has Pastri" he replied.

"Well, if that's how Tiar went upstairs first, Grandma?" Pamit.

I ran to the room, I immediately felt like refreshing myself and lying down, tired because my mind was not calm.
