TWILIGHT IN MEIRA'S HEART
Episode 22

Deni and Meira were chatting and watching a television show, when suddenly there was the sound of a fried rice seller passing in front of the house.

Geck! Geck! Geck!……tik Tok Tik Tok.

“Eh, there is a fried rice seller Den, you want?” Meira offers Deni

Deni quickly nodded, because Deni had not eaten. He feels very hungry. Fried rice and coffee macchiato that had been ordered by Julia earlier, did not touch at all.

Meira ran out to call the fried rice seller, then he ordered two packs of fried rice, with a moderate level of spiciness.

“This new mas ya sell here?” meira asked the fried rice seller, who appeared to be young.

“Iya mbak, only about one month” he replied.

Meira looked at the contents of the very simple fried rice cart, the vegetables were not much, the egg noodles were only one plastic, he was wet with only one small plastic, even though only a quarter of a basket.

Out of curiosity, Meira ventured to ask again.

“Why just bring the material a little mas?”

“Ya mba, if bring most fear if later it will not run out” he replied slowly

“Ohhhh..iya bener” said Meira.

“I if morning until afternoon work ngantor near port” he added

“Away once” Meira said

He just smiled as he put the ingredients to make fried rice into the pan.

“If I leave for work in the morning I also often pass here mbak” he said again

Meira nodded. Yes, he remembered something. Meira often sees him early in the morning leaving for the office in neat clothes.

Deni leaves the house following Meira.

“This morning if Den office, his office near the port” Meira story on Deni.

“Ohh yes? Far away” said Deni

Then the fried rice seller said, in the evening after the issue he would start selling, until two in the morning or it could be faster if the material he brought ran out. Want to try, work hard and good intentions, that's what Meira caught during the conversation. His simplicity and good cooperation with his wife allowed him to run all of this. They only had one two-year-old child, his wife who prepared all the ingredients to sell and when they came home from work, all the ingredients were ready in the cart to be brought to sale.

Both Meira and Deni were amazed by his efforts, not saying much but daring to try. Unimaginable fatigue that he feels, but Meira sees him living it with happy, carefree and optimistic. Fatigue is certainly there, but when undergoing happily, fatigue is nothing. The key is a will, based on good intentions, and willing to think about how to make it happen

After the fried rice was finished cooking, Meira went into the house with Deni.

***

Meanwhile in the car that stopped not far from Meira's house, there was a pair of eyes watching them…..Yes Julia is in there.

Julia sent a message to Deni. “Den, have you arrived home?”

He waited for a reply, but Deni did not answer.

“Huhhh..What is she doing with that woman?” Grouse Julia

Then Julia sent another message to Deni. “Den, when you get home, let me know yes, there's more I want to talk to you”

He waited a while, but again got no reply.

He tried hard to hold back his anger, which was increasingly difficult to contain.

“Deniiii, what are you doing?” Julia hit the steering wheel of her car in annoyance.

Julia then tried to call Deni. Once he tried, not picked up by Deni, then he tried again, Deni still flinch, until finally many times he called, still not raised by Deni. He began to lose patience, then slammed his cell phone.

“Meiraaa, watch out for you!!” sullenly.

Julia got out of the car. He set foot into Meira's house. His eyes looked around Meira's house that looked lonely.

When he got to the door, he broke his intention to knock on the door. Deni and Meira were laughing. He tried to see from the window glass, seen Meira sitting on a chair while Deni was not visible. Then he saw Meira walking to the back and fetching Deni a glass of water.

Julia continued to stalk them, listening to their vaguely sounding chatter. Now he sees Deni sitting shifted closer to Meira, then feed Meira, after which Meira's replacement who feeds Deni, making him more furious and burning jealous.

“What is special about the woman, until Deni can fall in love with her, while I who have known her for a long time, never glimpsed.” muttered Julia upset. Julia tried to keep eavesdropping on their conversation, she wanted to know what they were talking about, who knew her name was called, but her efforts were in vain. The sound of their conversation was only faintly heard, only the sound of laughter was clearly heard. Nearly an hour after Julia lurked them, she grew tired, and sat on Meira's porch.

Julia quickly ran into her car when she suddenly heard Deni say goodbye.

“I go home first yes Mir, it's night, you also have to rest”

Then Meira escorts Deni out, and back into the house after Deni's car passed.

Julia followed Deni's car from behind. “I have to know where Deni's house is now” Julia said.

He bulldozed the streets at night, no matter how the rain started to fall. After following Deni for approximately thirty minutes, finally arrived at Deni's house. Julia was relieved, because she finally knew where Deni's house was. In the past, Deni was still living with his parents. After her mission to find out Deni's house is successful, Julia returns to her home.

***

Julia was in her room. The night is almost changed in the morning. He was still thinking how to melt Deni's heart.

He walked back and forth in his spacious room. Her heart was filled with hatred for Meira. He blames Meira. Because Meira all her efforts so far to get close to Deni have been in vain. Meira has taken Deni from her. Before Meira, Deni never refused her request. But now, everything has changed since Meira's presence in Deni's life.

“I hate Meira...I hate Meira..” Julia said furious. His heart was completely enveloped in grudge and anger.

“If I had not continued studying abroad, surely Deni would not be close to Meira” murmured again.

Julia tapped on the table with her fingers. I don't know what he was thinking or planning. He really didn't sleep tonight.
