THE UNIVERSE IS FOLLOWING US
CHAPTER 19

Tina walked out of the house. Today he's going to see Jamal about the proposal. Its body is not too high about 160 cm. With pink t-shirts and soft jeans. It doesn't appear to be 28 years old. Her long underarm hair in pigtails without leaving bangs to cover her wide forehead.

"Where are you going?" asked Amar who saw his brother was neat.

"You go to Jamal's place." replied Tina.

"I'm coming, huh? long time no there." pinta Amar.

"Hemmm. You get ready brother wait."

Amar ran inside. The boy's face was cheerful when he was invited outside. Amar who since childhood was much taken care of by Jamal. Jamal is like his own brother. In fact, he hopes that Jamal can be the same brother.

"Excuse me" A man stood in front of Tina.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"My name is Jaka, I'm sent to pick up a woman named Tina. Can you call the guy?"

"My name is Tina. Who told you?"

"Mr Arjuna wants to see you, miss." explains Jaka.

"Oh, fine then." Tina followed Jaka's steps towards the car.

The distance of the car is very far from home. Tina had thought that the man in front of her had other intentions. It could be that the man was not Arjuna's man. It could be someone else who has a sinister plan. Again he dismissed that thought. If so, maybe his mouth was closed before reaching the car.

"Please enter miss," Jamal let himself into the car.

"Thank you." Tina sat in the back seat.

Jaka finally started the car engine. Not long after the car left the residential area where the pakdenya. Tina looked at the crowded street with vehicles. Various activities.

Living in Jakarta with all activities from various circles. In the capital there are many magnificent buildings, skyscrapers, all production-distribution-consumption activities are fulfilled, decent education, many hospitals, permanent jobs, even all are sufficient and fulfilled.

But if so, there are still small children who are willing to busk in the streets, up and down to the angkot, out and in the market, overheating, rain, all that for the sake of a bite of food and become the backbone of his family.

What he thought in his mind was that life in the capital was delicious, other needs were met, but living in the city was not as easy as turning the palm of the hand.

Tina imagines how she lives with hedonism. Berfoya-foya because his papa has a successful company. Mama is also so, they often shop for one outfit can be said to be hundreds of millions.

But when his father found out about it. They were scolded. Tina had reduced her hedonism, but saw Glen begin to get close to Maria Selena, the secretary of the OSIS who was said to be the most beautiful in school. Tina began to re-indulge Glen with her facilities.

Stupid indeed. But that's the love that blinds him. Even Feri back then each reminded him to forget about Glen. Of course Tina at that time did not accept it. Because at that time he thought Feri just wanted to destroy his relationship with Glen.

"If only I had heard Feri's words back then. Maybe there will be a different ending. I'm sorry, Feri. I used to look you in the eye. Because you used to look geeky and not as handsome as Glen. I also used to not know that you're a businessman's son." - Inner Tina.

While Amar was ready to meet his brother at the gate. It turns out her brother is no longer there. Amar's upset. With reckless capital he broke the piggy bank for the fare to Jamal's house.

"Where are you going Amar?" greet the Bude who went into Amar's room.

"To Jamal's sister's house, bude. Sis Tina said she wanted to take me there. But I was left." on Amar.

"Amar wants to eat? bude was cooking rawon. Amar likes rawon?"

"Like bude. Mama often cook rawon meat there vermicelli." Amar momentarily remembered his late mother loved to cook rawon.

Back to Tina

The car finally reached the Ancol beach. Tina looked towards Jaka. As if asking for an explanation of what is planned. Jaka remains silent and demands Tina to the beach.

Seeing the waves, Tina was moved to walk to the edge of the beach.

The beach sky looks bright. The scorching burning of the skin did not make him retreat from the beach area. Tina ran alone as if finding a playmate. Yes he was with a roll of waves that seemed to chase him. His laughter seemed to forget the problems he was facing. Not long after Tina sat on the beach. Letting her clothes get wet with moist beach sand.

From afar a pair of eyes continued to look at Tina's activities. His smile expanded upon seeing the woman's carefree laughter. He chose to monitor from afar. Let the woman enjoy the beautiful beach.

"Why not in samperin?" Jaka appears near his master's grandson.

"Leave it. If I show up there's a problem ruining the mood."

"You love her?" again Jaka revealed his silence.

"According, you?" he asked back.

"Love is blind. Just like you do now. He's the one who put you in jail. But you gave her a sweet surprise." Jaka keeps railing.

"Sokay know, you. You've never been close to any woman now to teach me about love."

"I've been close to women, mas Feri. But unfortunately no woman saw me from the other side. Hearing I work as a driver, they have gone three steps. From there I realized. They're not looking for love but material."

Feri leaves Jaka. The man stepped up to meet Tina who was sitting on the damp sand. For a moment Tina stood up as she was about to leave the beach. His hands cleaned the wet end of his clothes.

Tina was fixated as a hand coiled around her waist. Tina turned around to see who grabbed her. The ferry is getting tighter pulling Tina's body. Both hearts are racing.

Feri's body aroma has become opium since the incident in the washcloth at the time. The smell that was currently making him not soundly sleep. The figure that made it a dilemma to choose between the man and Jamal.

Tina breaks away from Feri's body. For a moment he remembered that the man belonged to his brother. For a moment he remembered that there was a good man he had accepted his proposal.

"Na," Feri holds Tina's body.

"Let go!" rebellious Tina.

"I came here for you. I'm out of here to make..."

"Make her married to sister Mayka, right? I've guessed that. So why did you meet me? use tell people to pick me up. Save your hopes on sister Mayka. I'm also getting married to Jamal." Tina left Feri.

"Do you love Jamal?" Tina stopped her steps.

"What is your business! if I take Jamal, it means you know for yourself!"
