The Lives of Five Hundred Thousand
coffe

We left my ex-in-law's house after getting information from Elis that Zain was brought to Jakarta by Surya.

Why did Surya bring Zain to Jakarta? how is Zain doing, is he okay and not scared? I'm afraid that it will happen because even though Surya is the biological father, Zain is not close to him.

"Are we going to follow him directly to Jakarta Nuri?"ask doctor Bayu in between driving. And the question broke my daydream that was thinking about Zain's current whereabouts.

I glanced at the man who still seemed to want to help me find Zain."Is the doctor not tired of driving me to and fro?"

Doctor Bayu seemed to be smiling."Do you think I'm tired of driving you?"he asked back.

I'm shaking."I don't know doc, but I think the doctor's tired because we've been looking for my son for a long time."

"Don't think about Nuri, I'm not tired at all. Continue now we go directly to Jakarta or...."

"We just go home doc, I have to tell people at home first before going to Jakarta. After all, the doctor must be hungry, right, hasn't eaten in the afternoon?"

Seemed doctor Bayu smiled widely and scratched his little forehead.

After we arrived at my house, it was seen Sumi and bang Supri were waiting for our arrival.

"Nuri.."call Sumi, looking anxious when I just got out of the car.

"Where did Zain Nuri find him?"asked Bang Supri as I stood before them.

"Not yet bang, but I got information from his sister mas Surya that Zain was taken to Jakarta as well as Surya."

"So the one who was silent kidnapped Zain the Surya? less fussy the Surya, because he was the household so uproar nyari the Zain until I can not swallow food. Never mind swallowing rice, porridge can not be swallowed," upset bang Supri, both hands are on the waist.

Sumi laughed but her mouth was covered by her hands so as not to make a sound.

"So do you guys not follow him to Jakarta?"ask Sumi later.

I glanced at the car where Doctor Bayu had not yet disembarked, he was seen chatting on the phone. Then, I turned my gaze back to the two people who were interrogating me.

"Mau Sum, but we want to rest for a while, besides we haven't had lunch yet" I said later.

"Hmm..emm.." Sumi seemed to think.

"Why Sum?"ask me in wonder.

"What do you want to eat? I don't cook."

"Lho, why not cook? in the refrigerator there are many food ingredients. If you don't cook and your mother and children eat what?"

"I've bought them Bu Minah Nur's porridge" reported bang supri.

"Oh, yes, that's it. I'm going to cook first." I rushed in and headed straight for the kitchen.

Half an hour later my cooking was done and on the table. There are fried ungkep chicken, fried tempe tofu, sambal, lalapan and kale chops. Then I rushed to call the doctor Bayu who was waiting in front of the house.

"So, let's eat yuk first! I've cooked, "i asked, doctor Bayu nodded and followed to the kitchen.

After the dinner table.

"Sorry, doc, I can only cook the village food" I said as I took the rice in the rice cooker and placed it on a plate belonging to doctor Bayu.

Doctor Bayu seemed to be smiling."Want the cuisine of the city or village for me is the same Nuri, as long as the food does not contain poison all kinds of food I like."

I'm smiling."Yes, doc, let's eat first." He's nodding.

We eat in silence, only the sound of the tongue and the clinking of the spoon sounds. I lyric doctor Bayu he looks greedy to enjoy his food. How not to be hungry, we passed lunch time for three hours and now the time has begun to afternoon.

After I finished eating I rushed to clean my body that felt so sticky. Because after this I will continue the search for Zain to Jakarta.

"Is it ready? ask doctor Bayu who is packing.

"Oh, yes doc, in a minute.

Then Sumi approached us."Nuri, my mother asked to come home this afternoon as well" she reported.

I stopped the movement of my hand and stood up straight.

"Oh, your mother asked to go home, yes it's Sum, it's okay if your mother is bad to want to go home to you. You just take my bike to take your sister to school tomorrow."After saying that, I took the two million in my wallet and gave it to Sumi.

As Sumi shed tears, she stared at the money I was thrusting at her.

"You are so kind to me and my family Nuri, I don't know how to return the favor."

"Already Sum, do not talk Mr. Budi mulu. Take it, pity this doctor Bayu from earlier waiting for me not to run," I said as I glanced at the man I was talking about. He just seemed to smile at me.

Sumi wiped her tears and took the money I gave her. After that I say goodbye to her, bang supri and Bu mariam to go to Jakarta.

On the way to Jakarta I just sat quietly with my own thoughts, while doctor Bayu focused on driving. It was dark and I believe it was time to enter the Maghrib. Dr. Bayu stops his second wheel in a rest area right in front of a coffee shop, Starbuck.

"Let's take a break for a second." I'm nodding.

Then we went down and walked into a coffee shop that looked not too crowded. Once inside, the Bayu doctor offered me two options, willing to wait in line and choose the type of coffee and bread itself or wait at a table and the baby doctor who ordered all of them, he said, and I chose to wait for him. Although I know the type of coffee in this coffee shop is fairly expensive but I do not know how it tastes because I myself have never been.

A few minutes wait finally the doctor Bayu came to bring two cups of hot coffee medium size and two plates containing bread size is quite large.

"Tomorrow at a drink? gini night is good coffee," he said, then sipped coffee with pleasure.

I who never copy still keep quiet and pay attention to it. He noticed my residence then stopped the movement of his hand that was cutting bread on his plate.

"Why shut up? don't you like to drink coffee?"

"Don't dislike doc, but I've never tried expensive coffee."

He seemed to smile at my honest confession and impressed the village." It's delicious, try it, anyways what I ordered for you is not black coffee but latex coffee. I know that women rarely drink black coffee. Or do you want to try the cold late coffe?"

I'm shaking." No need doc, this is enough." After saying, I immediately sipped the coffee even though it felt strange on my unusual tongue.

"That's the bread in eating too, delicious you know," he said. I followed the way the Bayu doctor cut the big bread with a knife and fork. I ate the bread slowly with a fork. After being in my mouth right said doctor Bayu that the bread I eat tastes good and I like it. In addition, the coffee was addictive that initially felt strange on my tongue but the longer it felt good and became opium. At the end of one cup of late coffe and one large bread was exhausted as well.

"Do you want more messages on the road?"ask the doctor Bayu, offering coffee and bread back.

I shook fast."No, doc, I'm already so full." He smiled, then raised his hand and took something to my lips. I was surprised at him.

"Kayak little boy just eat it to the bottom,"ledeknya and I looked down embarrassed.

Half an hour passed and the time to rest was enough. After that, we continued our journey to Jakarta.

A subtle pat was felt on my right shoulder, I opened my eyelids and saw a strange sight before me.

"We have arrived in Jakarta" said Dr. Bayu, then I glanced at him.

"Any quick one?"say me.

"Quick? yes to people sleeping very fast but to the driver very long, "his satire, I smiled shyly at the doctor's innuendo. Satisfied stomach turned out to make me sleepy and asleep during the trip.

"Cloak down," said the baby doctor and I nodded.

After descending I was astonished to see the big house in front of me. So amazed at the big house did not feel my mouth open two inches. Doctor Bayu stood beside me while shaking his waist staring at the house.

I glanced at him."Doc, where is this?"

"In my house, come on in!"bring him.

I feel no wonder if this big house belongs to the family of doctors Bayu because without admitting rich people I know doctor Bayu is indeed a rich man.

Doctor Bayu pulled my arm slowly while saying, "cold outside come in." I also follow his steps.

Arriving in front of the big door, Bayu's doctor rang a bell and soon the door opened and saw a middle-aged woman smiling at him.

"Den Bayu just got home?" ask the woman gently.

"Yes bi, is Oma asleep?"doctor asked back.

"It's den."Then the middle-aged woman glanced at me."Den Bayu with whom?" so, he asked back.

"Oh, this is my friend bi."

I, who had looked down, raised my face and gave a smile to the woman. He did not return my smile but looked surprised with slightly enlarged eyes and slightly open lips looking at me.
