BLESSINGS OF LOVE
Wouldn't

On a clear Saturday morning, the bright sun shone on the land, rivers and seas.

Birds chirping, a gentle breeze rustling blew into every corner of the earth.

Soraya was lying on a long sofa, her body all tired. He has been busy for nearly two weeks, grappling with teaching, proposals and meetings on campus.

Time was still showing at nine in the morning, and he was waiting for the masseuse from the back village who was being followed by Mince.

Mega was with her friends, Sinta and Eli who since last night the two children were staying at this house.

While Maya is dressing up, she has been allowed since yesterday that today she is going to go to see an inter-school basketball game.

Soon Maya will be picked up by Richard, a boy friend close to her at school.

Shortly from the outside there was the sound of a motorcycle stopping, then the fence was opened and someone approached the terrace of the house.

"Mega, is there Maya's sister?" ask Richard who came to pick up Maya.

Coincidentally Mega and her two friends were chatting cheerfully on the front porch of the house.

"KAAAAAKKKK MAYAAA, DATAAANGGG'S GIRLFRIEND!!!" mega shouted from behind the living room window.

"Jeez Mega, what the fuck is screaming everything, well," Soraya was surprised to hear it.

"YESYYY!!!" Maya also screamed as she ran down from her room upstairs.

"MAMA!!!" maya shouted again looking for her mother.

"Mama in the television room, you don't have to shout so, you can't, anyway..," said Soraya while sitting on a long sofa .

"Mama, I'll let you go with Richard. Want to watch a basketball game, yesterday my mother has allowed it," said Maya asked permission again.

"Where's Richard? when you want to take her away, you don't let me go with you?" ask Soraya to ask.

"A moment" said Maya as she ran into the living room and opened the door.

In front of the terrace, his sister was with his two friends and Richard who was sitting not far from them.

"Richard, come in first called my mama," asked Maya and was soon followed by the young man.

"Excuse me aunt, sorry Richard wants Maya to watch a basketball game between schools at the youth arena," Richard said when he was inside to see Soraya.

"May, but don't come home too late. Six o'clock in the afternoon you should be home" Soraya said.

"Iiihhh mama, if it's not finished how?" hatch Maya while pouting.

"Final next week, really, Maya," Richard said.

"Well, that's Richard saying it's also the final next week. Later mama let you watch the final as of today at six in the afternoon should be at home" Soraya told her son.

"Yes, okay," said Maya again with a wry smile.

"All you guys to the youth ring, you must be through the opa wood workshop. This is a cake for opa and oma," Soraya asked as she gave her a plastic package to take to her in-laws.

"Opa's in the workshop at this hour?" ask Maya for doubt.

"Opa from eight in the morning is also in the workshop, really".

"You know the place, right Maya?" ask Richard.

"Of course you know, I'm opa's granddaughter".

Then the two said goodbye to Soraya, back Soraya reminded him not to go home at night to the two.

Maya immediately sat in the back seat of Richard's motorbike while previously sticking out her tongue with her sister.

Simultaneously Mince came with the masseuse from the back village, and went straight inside to massage Soraya.

"Come, mbok, just above me in my room," Soraya asked.

"Anu.nyonya not on the mattress, symbok difficult if massage in the mattress," declined masseuse who is a middle-aged mother.

"There is a carpet mbok, later in the plastic carpet alasi. It's been prepared by Mince, "sohut Soraya while returning to invite the masseuse's mother.

Then the mother of the masseuse followed Soraya up, while Mince made water and prepared cakes for the mother of the masseuse.

On the terrace Mega and his two friends are busy telling a fierce teacher and some friends who are annoying to them.

When the fun is joking at each other's funny story, suddenly there is a car stopped in front of the fence of his house.

The three girls before the teenager immediately fell silent when a male figure came down from the car.

Mega recognized the figure of the man, an Elder in his church and if not mistakenly his name was Father Michael.

"Good morning Mega, sorry oom interfered for a moment. Want to ask if mom's home?" ask Michael to Mega.

"There's oom, but mom just got a massage. If you get a massage, it will be about two hours. Is there anything I can tell my mom?" asked Mega while approaching Mr. Michael who was still standing in front of the fence.

"Oh so, has it been a long time?"ask Michael again.

"Not long ago oom, most recently started. What's the message, oom?" Mega asked again.

"Mega, oom can ask Mega for help, right. Please ask your mother, when can oom visit again? there's something to talk to Mama about," said Mr. Michael.

"Okay, just go in. oom. Please sit on the terrace first," welcome Mega while opening the fence and invite Mr. Michael to sit on the bench on the terrace of the house.

Mega then went into the house, followed by her two best friends who wanted to know what was really going on.

Climb upstairs, and head straight for her mother's room, which opens the door, and Mega asks her.

"Mama, down there's Michael who's the church guy. Does my mom have a promise with that oom?" asked Mega while looking down at the face of her mother who was lying on her stomach.

"No, my mom has no promises to anyone today. Mama wants to take a break today, has been tired once during the week. You know for yourself mama goes home at night" said Soraya with her tired face.

"But oom it's nanya, when he can come here again to talk to mama he said".

"Just say it tomorrow morning at church, you're tired today. After the massage mama wants to drink ginger wedang, then sleep," said Soraya indifferently.

"Yes, non, her mama's tired. Her legs were all tense, pity her mother would rest," the massage mother spoke.

Mega understood, then went down again to meet Mr. Michael who was still sitting on the terrace.

"Oom, said my mother tomorrow to meet at the church. Today mama is very tired, had been massaged to sleep because a week ago came home last night continues," said Mega conveying a message from her mother.

"Oh so, if for example later in the afternoon oom here again, can you?"ask Michael to appeal.

"Know Mega anyway if mama has said tired, do not want to meet people. All day will be so, so free later oom here again also mama would not want to meet".

"Darling well, even though oom has come all the way here, but Mega's mother is not to be found. Yeah, well, oom's saying goodbye then".

Then with a giant step, Mr. Michael stepped out of the yard to his car and drove home.

"It looks like oom has a crush on your mama, deh," said Sinta.

"Yes, I think so. My aunt also has no husband, then likes there are men of the fathers who come. Either invite acquaintances or visit my aunt's house," Eli also said that.

"But I don't want my mom to marry me again. Especially the same oom-oom gulun kayak that," said Mega while pouting.

"Your mother will not respond, meaning your mother also does not want to marry again," said Sinta trying to cheer.

"Yes Mega, another my aunt. If my aunt likes grooming, show off that's it, pretty ass. Different from your mama who is calm," Eli also entertained Mega.

"Hopefully my mother has no desire to marry again. Don't let my mama get married again" Mega still feels sad and afraid of her mother being tempted by another man.

While Richard was so enjoying the view of the wooden workshop owned by Opa Hansen's grandfather Maya.

While Maya is meeting her grandfather to deliver an order from her mother earlier.

Opa Hansen was talking to her granddaughter, then slipped two pieces of paper money.

"For Maya and Mega, pass the money on to your sister, well," Hansen's opa pinta as she stroked her granddaughter's head.

"Yes, Maya will come home to watch basketball will definitely be given to Mega," said Maya with eyes sparkling happy to get additional snacks from her grandfather.

"That's who? your pal?"ask opa Hansen when she sees Richard.

Maya then draws Richard in and introduces him to his grandfather.

"Opa, I'm so happy to see this wood workshop. Next month I graduate, waiting for graduation and admission. Can I intern here? I used to be very happy with woodworking," Richard suddenly told opa Hansen.

"Oh. Later while studying while interning here can also be. But do you want and can saw, cut wood, sand and so on?" opa Hansen hesitated.

"I am originally from Blora, my previous papa was also a woodwork venture. But the factory was sold for mama's treatment first, then after mama died. I was sent here with my grandmother, and my father chose to work cargo in Surabaya," said Richard told me about his life.

"Oh fast, your speech is the answer. It turns out you are Blora, opa once also searched for teak wood to the city".

"Indeed, there are still many teak forests there. And most of it is good that it comes from there" Richard said with a smile.

"Huuhh.companied, mentang-mentang your hometown," interrupted Maya while nudging Richard.

"Hahahaha, it's true. Good wood from there. Alright, when are you going to come here for an internship please. Because it is likely that soon there will be quite a lot of orders from his customers oom Jimmy," opa Hansen told his grandson's friend.

"Okay, thanks opa. Later when the exam is over, soon I intern here to help opa".

Maya and Richard say goodbye as they head to the youth arena to watch an inter-school basketball game.

Opa Hansen stared at his grandson and his friend until his motorcycle was nowhere to be seen.

In his heart he felt there was little hope there would be a successor to his business, although it might still be a long time.

"It turns out that it must be the granddaughter-in-law who continues this business" whispered opa Hansen's heart.

On Saturday afternoon Jimmy was seen with Aliong in his study.

Discussing the progress of work with Ferry as well, and planning in the future development still has to continue even in the month of Ramadan.

After the discussion was completed, Aliong asked again the abandoned house that had been handed by Mario customers first to this company because it could not afford the construction costs.

"Here you go, get the keys to Marsela's mother. Later ko Aliong see first, if for example suitable please fix and use the house. After all, so far no one has taken care of it, either" said Jimmy.

"Ready, tomorrow the same wife plans to go to that location. Because the old place must be empty soon, it will soon be dismantled into a welding workshop on the body of the car," said Aliong told the situation now.

"Gue understood, tomorrow just look there and hopefully it can be suitable to live there," said Jimmy encouraging Aliong.

Feeling supported by Jimmy, of course Aliong is very grateful because his best friend helped him from difficulties.

"Eh...Jim. said friends, you are afraid to see a new child, the Goddess. Why the hell?" tanya Aliong felt strange.

"Lu again.gue was just like Kristy. Just go back to the office look at that. Honestly I'm afraid of wavering, where the same boy certainly every day will meet," said Jimmy while scowling his face.

"Oh my goodness, my friend. Just relax, if you are sure about Kristy, why should you be afraid of being tempted by others?".

"Ko Aliong, to be honest, I'm afraid that I'm a Rio bang. Well, marriage, not having an affair. Well, I don't want to be like him. I don't want to die in vain like him" Jimmy said.

"Oh Jim, about living dead on God's business. Don't equate yourself with Mario. He used to have his own life story, well.lu also has another story. It will not be the same story of everyone's life," Aliong tried to advise.

"It's true, but it's natural that I don't have any worries" Jimmy said.

"May, natural, but don't overdo it. You are too excessive in front of the others, it looks really avoid the Goddess, later it will even be a mockery," Aliong reminded.

Jimmy fell silent while thinking there was a point to what Aliong had said just now.

That night, Jimmy and Kristy agreed to go out to eat.

"You're leaving the diner all right?" ask Jimmy.

"Oh, that's okay, even my employees all told me to go with you. They've been reliable all over" said Kristy steady.

"Who is afraid!!!"exclaim Kristy too.

It's the night of their first week out eating together, usually Jimmy just went to Kristy's restaurant to chat with his girlfriend.

They both now feel very happy, at least among them there has been a promise said that they are lovers.

Jimmy, who feels the most happy because he really hopes his relationship with Kristy will get to the wedding later.

Beautiful, independent, and one more hope he is to have a wife who is good at cooking, of course, will soon become a reality.

Before long they arrived in a number of cities, and there is famous for its cuisine that is spicy sea food.

Five-foot cuisine, but who come to eat there almost all use a car or motorcycle.

A lot of people come to eat at the stall, they both get a corner table.

"Fish a large grilled snapper and a package of shrimp, clams, crabs in a spicy pasture soup, add two orange ice and two mineral water," Jimmy ordered the waiter at the diner.

"Add no rice, sir?" ask waiter.

Jimmy looked at Kristy, and was answered no because the food ordered was already so much.

While waiting for the food to come, the two of them were now talking to each other with friendly eyes.

Hot air is not felt, which is sure they are looking forward to good food and also happy to be together.

Soon their ordered food came, and soon the two were eating voraciously and happily.

"I'm less able to process crabs and shellfish, so being able to enjoy other people's processed cuisine with those ingredients is very happy. It's really delicious, I just ate here for the first time," said Kristy while gasping for spiciness.

"So you're thinking of learning to process crabs not now?"ask Jimmy who looks more relaxed because he likes spicy food.

"Hahahaha, lazy ah. Crabs are hard to open. It's better to eat delicious processed by others," said Kristy while so hassles open the crab.

Jimmy helps Kristy open the crab, and feeds her lover a piece of crab meat that she removes from her hard shell.

Kristy is pleased and she also returns to feed Jimmy with a big piece of shrimp.

Romantic scenery, many people glance at the couple sitting in the corner who are bribing each other food.

"Eh.that's my boss," said Dewi who was waiting for a food order with his three friends.

"Where, Wi?"ask one of his friends.

"That's sitting in the same corner girls wear pink flower skirts," said Dewi.

"The wife is well, they're very romantic" said another friend.

"Say the office guy my boss is not married. Maybe his girlfriend, deh," said Dewi again.

"Who dong, you will be silent is considered impolite. Meet the boss outside the office I don't know," said another friend.

"The person is arrogant, if I go to his room, never smile or say anything, that is. Lazy.. ah..," said Dewi.

"But I just saw some people greeting them, being kind to them," one of his friends noticed Jimmy and Kristy who were greeting each other with people who knew them.

"It might be his friend or his brother. I'm a new kid in his office, not good to be spayed too," Goddess was firm on his stance.

"Rather than your boss seeing you first, it's not good anymore, you know!!!"other friends emphasized.

The Goddess thought for a moment, then she stood up and walked over to the table that Jimmy and Kristy were sitting on.

"Good night, Mr. Jimmy. Eat here too apparently," the Goddess greeted Jimmy, and Jimmy looked surprised.

"Eh...Goddess.you're here too. Same who?"Jimmy asked back while being a bit clumsy.

"Together with college friends first, sir," said the Goddess while nodding her head.

"Oh..iya...eh..this is my wife's candidate, this is my wife," Jimmy said with a strong tone introducing Dewi to Kristy.

"Good night, ma'am, greetings. I'm the Goddess of the new employee in the father's office," said Dewi allow himself to Kristy.

"Hi Goddess, nice to know you. Sorry my hands are dirty, we can't shake hands" said Kristy kindly.

"Yes, ma'am, it's okay. Excuse me, excuse me, my table's right there with friends".

"Please, thank you Goddess," Jimmy replied as he waved his hand.

"Beautiful kid, looks like he just graduated college, huh?" Kristy is fascinated with the Goddess.

"Little boy, at most nineteen or twenty years old," replied Jimmy.

"Be careful, loh. The little ones usually have a stinging can" Kristy said.

"Jealous of that child?".

"No".

"lih".

"No, I'm not jealous".

"Well, I'll kiss you later you can't be removed".

Kristy stuck out her tongue in response to Jimmy's words, and that made Jimmy even more anxious.

Finished eating both of them stood up, with their large height posture is enough to attract the attention of many people.

"Wow.bini boss lu cool, tall, tight, solid, hmmm.

"Easly boss you really love the same bin, sexy people so plump," said the others in the comments.

"Gue high is also a land finisher, very different from my boss's wife, hehehe," said Dewi while pointing to herself.

"Lord on land, what is it?" ask the other friend.

"Straight, tall, slim, flat chest," replied the Goddess who was greeted with laughter by another friend.

Back at Soraya's house, Maya keeps her promise before six in the afternoon she has been escorted Richard home.

Of course Soraya became happy with the boy, he kept his promise even though it was just a clock home but it became more value in the eyes of Soraya as a mother who has a daughter.

"Richard, dinner was with us here, well," Soraya asked.

"Hmmm, thank you aunt, do not bother, I say goodbye" said Richard.

"Come on, it's about time for dinner. It's okay to eat with us" Soraya asked again.

Maya also certainly helped force him to have dinner together like his mother had invited him.

Finally Richard also joined dinner together at Soraya's house, of course this was made Soraya to dig more about the family background of the young man.

"After my mother died of kidney disease, my father worked in Surabaya on a cargo ship. While my sister and I were sent here to live with my grandmother" Richard told me about his family.

"So you told me about the wood factory in Blora, is it the same as opa ?" ask Maya.

"It used to be in our log factory, cutting wood and then sent to various places. Though at that time papa had planned to make furniture as well, such as cabinets, tables and so on. But it did not work because the factory was already sold for my mother's treatment. Now all the assets in Blora have been sold so it is impossible to go back there, too" Richard continued.

"But according to aunty it's okay if you later intern at opa Hansen. He is a very kind and wise man, as long as you want to learn for sure he is very supportive of your every effort," Soraya supports Richard's plan.

"Good aunt, I will pay attention to the advice of aunty. Because it is my plan to go to college while working, do not want to burden papa, because he still has my sister's dependents".

Soraya secretly becomes very happy with Richard, at least if one day true match with Maya will certainly be the man in charge.

From that moment nothing was heard from Mega's mouth, the boy just kept quiet while eating while listening to the conversation between his mother, his brother and his sister's boyfriend.

"Once with Mega with you, know for yourself the child is very sensitive. Don't let him continue to keep his distance from your friend" Soraya whispered to Maya while cleaning the dirty dishes.

"If go three ride what, time ride mama's car. Richard doesn't have a license to drive a car yet" Maya said.

"It looks like your mom will be among you to watch the final of the basketball game next week. Just make an appointment to meet Richard there, "said Soraya.

Maya nodded in agreement as well finally, indeed all this time Mega seemed to dislike Richard.

After finishing eating, and Richard had also gone home, it was finally time for the three of them to spend a Sunday night together.

"This is a good zombie film, the main character is a famous actor," said Mega spirit.

"Your films are, if not zombies or vampires, no other film is better to watch" Soraya protested.

"If the other movies are each, I don't like Korean dramas, but sister Maya likes. I like action movies, but Maya doesn't like them. Well..films like this are what we like," Mega told her mother.

"Yes, my mom understands. Please just want any movie, mama just watch it," Soraya told the two girls.

"Mama, if Mega asks anything can't?".

"May dong, what do you want to ask?".

"Will she get married again?".

Soraya had her eyes rounded and Maya who had been busy with cellphones immediately went to look at Mega.

"Hahahaha, why did Mega ask Mama that?".

"So morning oom Michael came here to find mama, surely oom it likes the same mama," said Mega pout.

"Idiiih...oom Michael the geeky yah..no way..no mama... please deh....," Maya followed the comment with a slack.

"Geez, that oom might just want to talk to your mom. No, my mother will never marry again. Mama's got you two, why get married again".

"The man in your heart is only your father, although maybe you're not the only one in your heart".

"That means!!!???" ask the two girls together with a face full of questions.

Soraya was silent for a moment, she was worried that she had just mispronounced. Then try to explain slowly, "I mean love papa divided by three, for mama one, sister Maya one and Mega one".

Nurtured by her two children there is a puddle of water, then both of them hug her mother tightly. The three of them spent a Sunday night watching movies and eating pop corn and orange syrup in a movie theater.

That night also in another city there is a look of excitement because it just got a chat message from a man who is always waiting for.

Fuad sent her itinerary to Aletha.

"My first week of fasting in Cilacap one week, and in the second week of the new assignment to Semarang long enough to a week before the Eid al-Fitr holiday".

It was a message sent by Fuad, and of course Aletha was very happy and very much looking forward to meeting the man of her dreams.

"I wait for Fuad, we will break our fast together in Semarang".

It was Aletha's reply, filled with hope that the meeting would come to pass.

Back at Big Beauty Resto, Jimmy is kissing Kristy in the car in the diner's parking lot.

"There will be people who see, I'm ashamed" said Kristy felt uncomfortable.

"One more time," said Jimmy.

Cup..cup..cup.apparently a few new times Jimmy released his embrace to Kristy.

"Tomorrow morning I'll pick you up again".

Kristy nodded, then got out of Jimmy's car.

The pair of eyes that were staring at them looked so hurt, as if they could not accept that Kristy had fallen into Jimmy's arms.
