If Love Could Choose

If Love Could Choose
Towards the selamatan


About two in the afternoon, when Yunia and Vishnu reached home, after stopping by the house of Aunt Mia. They do not intend to stop by again, because besides Vishnu is still a bit tired after traveling a long distance overnight, Yunia is also hungry.


"You want to stop by the resto?" Ask Vishnu who had offered to Yunia, when accidentally heard Yunia's stomach rumbling. Yunia grimacing.


"Thanks..." Yunia replied while shaking her head.


"Do you want to?" Ask Vishnu to make sure. Yunia nodded back.


"A little while back home...." Yunia said for a reason.


Finally, Vishnu spurred the car rather quickly so that it could get home soon.


As soon as the car stopped in the courtyard of the house, without waiting for Vishnu who still had to make sure that the car was parked properly, Yunia immediately went down. He saw that the door of his house was open, and saw several people sitting talking in the living room.


"Assynoltom..." Greetings Yunia as soon as she reaches the door.


"Greetings waalaikum..." The people sitting there.


In the room, Yunia saw mom talking to some neighbors around.


"Home home, nduk..." Greet mom. Yunia nodded. Screaming and kissing the backs of the hands of the mothers of their neighbors. Especially for mother, after kissing the back of her hand, Yunia also hugged the mother's body.


"Yunia kangen, ma'am." He said spoiled, sitting on the arm of the chair the mother had occupied. Mom smiled. "Yunia doesn't know that you're coming today..." Add it while picking a type of cake presented at the table. Looks like the cake was souvenirs that the capital brought from city B.


"Yes, I have to come for this show... " Mother's heart. "Eh, have you been to Aunt Mia's house?" Ask your mother when she remembers the reason for Yunia's delay in returning home.


"Had..." Yunia replied while nodding again. "Back of school was Vishnu pick up Yunia, continue to the house of Aunt Mia. well, until hungry it feels like the belly of Yunia..." Yunia complained like complaining.


"Did you eat out?" Ask mother.


"... It's been.... He's the one who doesn't want to..." Vishnu who just entered the house immediately replied.


"Yes... Yunia remembers still have the rest of the rendang yesterday. if eaten with vegetables must be delicious..." Yunia said with a grin. His saliva seemed to be about to drip imagining the food in his mind. The women sitting in front of him laughed.


"Olah Yun... Yun... wong do not wadang ae (\=vegetables cooked yesterday only) kok dyinget .. yes better food in the restaurant there dong..." A mother's chirps. But Yunia was just grimacing.


"Yes, already.. let's eat first.. invite your mas to eat all..." Mother's orders.


"Mas Vishnu is still hungry?" Yunia asked while looking at Vishnu.


"Yes hungry..." Vishnu Sahut.


"Don't Vishnu already eat meatballs?" Accuse Yunia


"Eh? When do you eat meatballs?" Elak Vishnu


"Lah was at school Yun... mas will sit in the place of meatball sales people...?"


"Look..! Just sitting doang while rokoan (\=smoking)..." Vishnu told me.


"Oh.. kirain...." Yunia said while mesem shy.


"That's it. There you eat first..." Said mother mediate.


"Mom don't eat all that?" Yunia asked now turned back towards mother.


"Mom ate earlier..." Answer mother.


"Eh?! By the way.. Where's aunt going, ma'am?" Yunia asked suddenly while suddenly stopping and turning to face the mother again, making Vishnu who was walking behind her almost hit her.


"Ih! You are yes..." Weltuk Vishnu shocked. Yunia only glanced at Vishnu while laughing, realizing Vishnu's surprise, but her attention then returned to mother waiting for an answer.


"Your aunt came home first, he said he wanted to prepare the furniture that will be used tomorrow... Vishnu, later after eating try you to Bik Sumi's house. Maybe your aunt needs help to bring the furniture later..." Answer mother. Vishnu nodded. After that he turned Yunia's shoulder to face the parlor door with the living room, and pushed her slowly to start stepping.

So busy they prepare everything for the father's salvation event, so it does not feel the night has come.


Vishnu was still sitting in the guest room accompanied by his uncle and Pak Yono (driver Vishnu), while having a light conversation. While Yunia, Bik Sumi and mother were sitting in the living room. The three of them had just finished making a list of the groceries they had to buy tomorrow morning.


"Yun, auntie came home first. Tonight aunt will sleep at home..." Bik Sumi told Yunia.


"Who? I'm not here to bik..." Yunia said, raising her face from the note she was rereading.


"No... Tonight, you've got your mom and dad accompanying you ..." Elak Bik Sumi's. "Mbak... njenengan (\=anda) if you want to sleep in the room monggo ... room I have cleaned..." Continue Bik Sumi to the mother, while pointing towards the usual room Bik Sumi used if staying there.


"Oh, uh, mature suwun..." Reply mom with a smile.


In that house, there were only four bedrooms. The father's room used to be. Yunia's room, a room often used by Bik Sumi, and a rather smaller room that is sometimes used as a guest room.


If you sleep in Bik Sumi's room, then where does Vishnu sleep? Up here, something crossed Yunia's mind... If Mr. Yono will definitely be told to sleep in the restroom... Lah, if Vishnu? Is he going to sleep in my dad's room? Does anything seem strange, right?


Yes, even though they were officially married more than a month ago, but because of the death of the father, this bed business never crossed Yunia's mind. He himself only realized now, Where usually Vishnu sleep for that long?


That time... For more than a week Vishnu lived here, Yunia always went to bed first, because Vishnu always mengelkan with the fathers who do tahlil . During that time also Yunia never thought about, when and where Vishnu slept. He's just thinking about it now...


"Mas... want to go home now?" Bik Sumi asked her husband.


"Come..." Answer uncle from the living room.


"Kok hurry anyway, uncle?" Ask Vishnu to mince words. I heard my uncle laughing.


"Yes, neither did Wis... Tomorrow is a busy day, it is better to sleep early, so that you can get enough sleep... " Answer uncle, rising from his seat.


" ... After all, I haven't been around for a long time (\=sleep hugged) with your aunt..." Continue uncle then while smiling sideways.


I don't know who he's really running. To be sure, everyone who heard laughed. His speech was successful in making Bik Sumi, Vishnu and Yunia blushed in shame.


"Wes.. auntie come home first, Yun.... Ma'am, monggo kulo (\=saya) said goodbye first..." Bik Sumi finally distracts everyone. Mother nodded.


Bik Sumi and her husband stepped to the door, Yunia and Vishnu followed him, just to take them home to the yard. After the aunt and uncle had moved away, they turned around, and went inside again.


"Lock, Yun." Vishnu's orders while sitting back in his chair earlier, he continued his chat with Mr. Yono. Yunia according.


After locking the door, for a moment he was confused..Why would he now? he stepped into the living room, where his mother was sitting. But she's not there now, maybe she's in the room...


"Duh... This gemana?" Thought Yunia confused herself, while gazing towards the living room, where Vishnu was now. Without being prevented, his brain is now focused on the word that uncle said KELONAN. And it managed to make her goosebumps ...


"Ah, whatever he wants to sleep where..." Yunia muttered finally in her heart. Rather than him thinking something. He finally chose to sleep first...
