The Lives of Five Hundred Thousand
Surya drunk

When I was busy making Raihan fried rice came up to me and stood beside me. I glanced at him with my eyes.

"Rai..why come here?"

"I just want to see Nuri cook."

I smiled at Raihan's simple answer.

"it..!"

"why Rai?"

"Mba Nuri wasn't angry was I kissing mba?"

"Forget it Rai..!"

"But..mba not angry right?"

I turned off the stove and faced Raihan.

"On what basis did you kiss me Rai?"I ventured to ask because Raihan himself had lured me to recall it.

"I'm.I'm...!" Raihan looks nervous.

"To prove that you are a grown man and not a child anymore and to prove that you can kiss a woman? so Rai?"

"Mom..not so mba..!I'm confused how to explain it."

"Yes Rai, no more discussion. I'm not angry, and I believe that you're a grown man and responsible. I'm sorry I may have unwittingly hurt your feelings."

"I. I just don't want to be called a little kid mba."

"Ha ha ha...!" I laughed at Raihan's statement that he didn't want to be called a child.

"Is there anything funny?"

"No Rai, sorry I just wanted to laugh. You better wait at the dinner table, and I'll be done."

I poured fried rice into two dishes and then topped with fried onions and beef eggs. Raihan is already sitting at the dinner table waiting for the fried rice that I will bring for him. I put a plate of fried rice and a glass of warm water in front of Raihan.

"wow, it's look so delicious !" Raihan muttered in English while smiling at the fried rice that was still steaming in front of him.

"What does Rai mean..!"ask me while sliding the chair for me to sit on.

"Don't pretend you don't understand me!"

"Truly Rai.I don't understand English. Understand I just graduated high school so my brain is stupid.said my husband also I am stupid and I am not as level with his ex-wife who sarja.na....!" I immediately smothered my mouth after realizing where I was going. I wonder at my own mouth why so lightly confided in Raihan. What because all this time I did not have a friend or someone to share my grievances. All this time I just keep it myself without anyone knowing how the life I live is either my household life or my life with my own family. Right now it is only Raihan who is close to me, Raihan who is always there when I need help.

"What did you say earlier? mba Nuri's husband said that she was stupid and a kuper?"

"Ti.no Rai.I misspoke.at gih mumpung still warm." I directly feed the fried rice into my mouth while looking down and without speaking. I knew that Raihan was watching me but I just focused on eating. Not long after Raihan began to feed his fried rice.

"Did Nuri want to go to college?" ask Raihan in between meals.

I smiled at a question I thought was impossible to reach.

"I used to want to go to Rai's college, but after getting married and having Zain I didn't have any interest in going to college anymore. All I think about right now is making a lot of money for Zain, for the future of Zain."

"But Zain has a father, why are only you thinking about Zain's future?"

"Because I'm the only one who cares about Zain's life."

"What does mba Nuri mean?"

"Owh, it's okay Rai. end up eating it."

"Mba always cuts the conversation."

"It's not so Rai, it's not an important thing to discuss. Oya, what about your college?"

"Thank God I'm good and in six months I have to take care of the thesis and hopefully I can graduate next year."

"Amin..continue the plan after graduation?"

"Wish to marry mba he he..!"

"Hmm, pass on the wedding. So the deduction for parents what if directly married? pity you your mother has worked hard to finance you until college ends directly marriage."

Raihan only smiled smirkingly while scratching his nape.

I saw that Raihan's plate was empty without a grain of rice left.

"Do you want to add Rai?"

"No mba, thank you. I feel like I have a wife like this he..he..!"

"Let me wash it!" said Raihan while his hand did not come out of my hand.

"No need Rai, it's a woman's job."

"Are men not allowed to do it?"

"You're a guest here Rai, when I told you to do the dishes. Already ah, you just wait in the living room." Raihan let go of my hand and I immediately brought the dirty dishes we had eaten.

The clock is ten o'clock at night. My husband and mother have not yet returned home. I don't know where they went. While the rain still has not subsided so Raihan has not been able to go home.

"Mba is sleepy? I'm going home now."

"Don't Rai, the rain is still heavy later you rain and continue to hurt how?"

"Mba worried about me getting sick?"

"It's not so, if you're sick pity haji ma'am the hassles of taking care of you later."

"He.he.mba could be."

Eleven o'clock in the evening the rain had started to subside. While people who are waiting for the rain to subside even fall asleep on the sofa. I approached Raihan and patted his arm a few times.

"Rai.bun Rai, the rain has subsided." Raihan squirms but his eyes are closed.

"Rai, wake up Rai..!"I wiggled his arm a little rough but Raihan still did not open his eyes.

Because Raihan is difficult to wake up, I gave up and I just let Raihan sleep on the sofa until he woke up alone. However, when I was about to leave Raihan arrived Raihan pulled my arm until I fell on the chest of his field. Raihan hugged me tightly but his eyes were closed.

Raihan's treatment made me aghast in shock and I almost wanted to scream because I was afraid Raihan was doing something like me. But when I noticed her handsome face, Raihan was dreaming and delirious.

"Don't leave me again!" Raihan muttered while tightly clutching my body. I tried to escape from Raihan's arms but it was difficult.

I pinched Raihan's arm so tightly that Raihan was aghast and in pain. Raihan woke up and immediately released his hand that wrapped around my body.

"Mba...kok can be on top of my body?" Raihan asked like a dazed person. It's true that Raihan was dreaming and delirious.

"I should ask why can you dream while holding me Rai? are you dreaming about that girl in your painting?"

"Is that right, mba?"

"Did you think I was intentionally overlapping Rai's body?"

"I don't know, I'm sorry if the mistake was on me because I was completely unintentional and out of my consciousness."

"It's Rai, I just want to wake you up when the rain has subsided."

Raihan rubbed his face with both hands then sighed.

"Then I go home, huh mba? thank you for everything. Sorry to trouble mba Nuri." Raihan got up from his seat and walked towards the door and I opened the door for him immediately.

"Rai..be careful yes !"

Raihan smiled sweetly once then he nodded. I watched Raihan until he got on his bike and drove out of my house. After that, I closed my door and rushed to the room where Zain was sleeping.

I laid my body down next to Zain and I tried to close my eyes but it was hard to keep my eyes closed. My mind is remembering the incident with Raihan. Recalling the moment Raihan kissed me and the moment Raihan hugged me tightly.

"Astaghfiruallah the enzyme." I repeatedly beristighfar because I know what I have done is a sin even though accidentally. I can no longer be rash to consider Raihan a child because even though Raihan is a boy who has been puberty.

"Lady...Nuri..!"'s search...!" I heard the sound of my mother calling me from the main door. I was just about to close my eyes. I quickly exited the room and walked quickly to the main door and opened it. It looks like mom is standing while holding her chest like cold.

"Mother from anywhere? why just got home?"

Mom didn't answer my question she barged into the house and entered her room. I just shook my head to look at the mother who was silent to me.

At two o'clock in the morning the faintest of my ears caught the sound of the door slamming and the sound of calling my name. I blinked my eyes and sharpened my hearing. Surya's voice was clearly heard outside the house asking to be opened the door. With laziness and sleepiness I forced my feet to open the door.

"Why did you open Nuri's door for so long ?"

Mas Surya immediately nagged me when I just opened the door. There was a smell of alcohol coming out of his mouth and I suspected that Surya had drunk alcohol.

"I've been sleeping, besides, where have you come from at this hour just come home?"

"I have a lot of business outside," replied Surya while entering the house with a staggering path.

I cut my lips to hear Surya's reply. What business to go home in a state of smelly mouth alcohol and stumbling road? I know Surya is drunk but I choose to be quiet.

I noticed Surya walking into the room with a stagger. I just shook my head looking at him. I don't know when his bad habits left him. Not once twice when Surya was drunk but countless times even before marrying me he was often drunk.

I walked towards my room and Zain but Surya's cry made me stop my steps and enter the room occupied by Surya mas.

"What is yelling?"
