CHAPTER 67

Pov (Author)

     Rani stopped by to buy medicine at a pharmacy near her hostel to treat blisters on her knees and elbows.

He bought Alko*hol, petroleum jelly, sterile cassa, hypa*fix and antibiotic drugs according to the advice of the pharmacist. When he came out of the pharmacy, someone called him.

"Raniy". Shouted someone, he turned around.

He squinted his eyes trying to recognize the person who called him. "Well right??" Ask Rani to make sure.

"Yes it's Santi, where have you never looked at campus? Do you live around here or just stop by?" Ask the woman behind what turns out to be Rani's classmate on campus.

"eeee.. I quit college, I was lazy to study, mending me work to find my own money. I'm gonna go in the back, and what are you doing here?" Rani asks Santi

"Oh that's it. If I also work now but the cave is still in college, you will know I am an orphan so I have to finance myself, I do not want to keep my aunt. I work at minimarket indo*April there, I just take the afternoon shift until night so as not to collide with the hours of college but if again I take the morning shif like today. I just got home from work". Santi explained while pointing to his workplace which turned out to be close to Rani's boarding house, although they are not close but Santi is quite popular in their generation because of her beauty and she is also quite smart but unfortunately she is poor so Rani is not willing to be friends with her. In addition, Rani also envies Santi because many men like him.

"Oh yes, I went back first because I want to clean my wounds". Pamit Rani actually she is also not comfortable talking to Santi because this is the first time they chat.

"Gosh, what's this? You're falling, aren't you?" Santi asked worried about seeing Rani's chafed knee.

"What's wrong, there was accidentally nenggenggol I fit home earlier". Rani is lying.

"Do you want me to help clean up? Gini - gini I clean the wound, when I was alive, I clean the wound of diabetes he". Santi offered help.

Rani seems to think. 'Do I accept his offer, I don't know how to clean the wound. I think I need a storymate, too'. Rani murmured in her heart.

"Hmmm.. Sure, I also don't know how to clean the wound, yuk come with us to my boarding house". Rani answered while repulsing and then took Santi to her boarding house.

Arriving at his boarding house, Rani immediately opens the door and lets Santi in.

"Sorry if it's messy, what do you want to drink? Take it yourself in the refrigerator. I'm gonna change my clothes first". Rani then went into her room to change clothes.

Santi responded with a nod, he was amazed to see a larger Rani boarding house than his aunt's house or his home in the village. Ever since both parents died, he had been living with his aunt. Because his parents' house has been sold to cover the debt. He looked around, the contents of Rani's boarding house were quite complete and quite neat.

It was not long before Rani returned to the living room. He looks fresh like he's taken a shower because his hair is rolled up in a towel.

"The cure". Rani handed the plastic from the pharmacy to Santi, then she sat down with her legs straightened.

"Ehhh yes, your kost is good yes, big also your kost". Santi.

"No, this is small to me. Still my house gedean". Rani said a little snobbish.

'I'm crazy I think he said small, I can't imagine how luxurious his house is. The rich are free'. Inner Santi.

"When you clean up my wounds, bengong aja from earlier. Ntar if you are too late I get a nutmeg lo use a broom". Rani said to wake up Santi who bengong himself.

"Hehe.. Yes sorry. These are your wounds clean, aren't they?" Santi asked because he saw that Rani's wound was already a bit cleaner than the one he had seen before.

"Yes, I was cleaning up a little bit in the bathroom while I was in the shower". Answer Rani.

Santi also began to clean Rani's wounds with heart - heart, there is still some sand attached to Rani's wounds, he looks a little grimacing when the wound is cleaned with alko*hol. But then it gets cold after dioles of jelly.

Suddenly Rani shed tears because she remembered the embarrassing incident that had happened this afternoon.

"Why are you crying? Do I hurt him? I'm sorry I was so careful". Said Santi worried because Rani's crying did not stop, Rani shook her head and suddenly Rani hugged Santi. Santi becomes more confused about what happened with Rani, he tries to calm Rani down.

"Lo what's the problem? If you want, you can tell me. Who knows I can help". Santi said while rubbing Rani's back.

Rani also let go of her embrace and looked as if she had been.

"Gue needs a storymate but you promise not to tell anyone". Rani said while wiping away tears, even though they were not close but Rani felt Santi could be trusted

Santi. "Yes I promise, you used to believe in me". Santi said with a serious face.

"Gu.. I'm pregnant and the people who are pregnant with me don't want to take responsibility. I've been trying to get killed but this baby is too strong, I'm afraid my family knows. They will not forgive me". Rani told me while crying again.

Santi looks surprised to hear the story of Rani, he did not expect the girl he had seen arrogant and stupid with others under him turned out to have a very severe problem like this.

"Be.. How many months?" Santi asked doubtfully - doubtfully.

"It looks like a two-month road". Rani answered.

"Click to help me figure out how to get this baby, I'm not ready to have kids. What's more, he was born without a bokap". Please Rani while holding Santi's hand.

Santi looks confused, he does not know how to help Rani because he has never faced problems like this. But suddenly he remembered something.

"Gue's got a way, but I'm not sure if it's going to work or not". Santi replied doubtfully.

"What's the way, tell me quickly?" Rani is impatient.

"In my home where there used to be a paraji or a child shaman named Mak Ijah, she has experience helping people give birth. She also receives massage services for pregnant women and babies. Women who are difficult to get pregnant are also many who seek treatment to him. But what I do he can also help reduce the content of origin of expensive payment". Santi Bright.

Rani's face looks sumringah. "Lo can take me there, right? Plis interin me, I'll give you a reward". Rani said with a face.

"But you sure you want to go there? Not necessarily Mak Ijah can help". Santi asked doubtfully.

"We don't know if we can or not if we haven't tried. You live among me. So when can you take me? If it can be soon". Rani said confidently and firmly with her decision, whatever she will do as long as the baby in her womb dies. If he succeeds, whatever the shaman asks he will love.

"Well, what about tomorrow? Coincidentally tomorrow I enter in the morning, I finished my work to the house of Mak Ijah. Because my village from here about three hours, we will get there at night. It's even good that no one sees us. Yes, I went home first, it was night. I fear my aunt is dying". Santi said with a punch.

"Okay ntar we meet in front of your workplace. Oya this makes the cost of going home and a thank you sign because you have cleaned my wound". Rani said while giving some red money to Santi.

"No need to Ran, I sincerely help you lo". Push Santi smooth.

"Gue also sincerely thanks him if you do not want to accept, I will be angry with you". Rani insisted.

"Yes, I accept, thank you. I'm sorry, you rest gini. Assalamu'alaikum". Santi was out leaving the boarding house an Rani. They had exchanged mobile numbers.

"Wa'alaikum hail". Rani replied while staring at Santi's departure, after his friend disappeared from his sight, he then locked the door of his boarding house and immediately went into his room to rest. He can't wait for tomorrow, he hopes everything will go well.

He had checked his phone hoping Mr. Ronald contacted him but nil. There was only a message and a call from his mother, which must have been the contents and his mother's intention was to contact what else if about money. He deactivated his phone so his mother wouldn't bother him.

Seriate.
