Everything Will Become One
Episode 8's.
Days have changed, now exactly at 3 am, I woke up, to do my tahajud prayer, time in New York I often do that , my father who asked for it ,what can I break when my papah asks.
I have finished praying, I thought, what do I do next ,oiya, just now this thought crossed my mind, in Indonesia it is now 5 am, right?. Usually papah and mamahku are doing dawn prayers for hours, it feels like the right time to tell with them at least by way of Vidio Call only.
I decided to make a vidio call with them, and thank God, they picked it up.
"Assalamualaikum, mah pah".I started our conversation.
"Waalaikumsalam, son ,how? Do you live in Korea?".Papah.
"Betah ko pah, here the person is good good good".My answer.
"Pah ,mah ,sorry yes , I should have been in Indonesia today".I held my tears down in front of them.
"Why dear, same father ma'lumi ma'amah ko, this is also for your future right? Whatever it is papah sama mamah will support you ko".
"Jaudah ya pah mah ,Raina matiin first ,Raina sleepy ,later Raina call again in the morning".I intentionally said that because I was no longer strong enough to hold back my tears..
"Yes Raina, take good care of yourself".I directly turn it off.
I cried after them in my room, I missed them so much, I haven't been home for a long time. I cried in the night, but it turned out that the night was not quiet there was someone who opened the door to my room.
"Raina's... Why are you crying?".The voice, I seem to know, I immediately raised my head from the folds of my hands and looked at the source of the voice.
"Mark, what are you doing?".I was shocked and embarrassed, did the sound of my crying make his sleep disturbed? Until he woke up, but for a while, he seemed to be taking water, he was holding a glass that had been filled with water.
"My drinking water is gone, why are you like this?Did anything hurt you?".He walked closer to me.
~I diam~.
"You know I didn't just graduate? I plan to go back to Indonesia after I graduate, but in reality, my guidance teacher told me I have to work for this company".
"I miss my parents a lot 'Mark, it's been almost a year and a half that I didn't come back to Indonesia, I really wanted to see my family for a long time".I was crying again.
"I understand that, you miss your parents, don't you?? It's natural 'Raina, even if you're reluctant to show your tears in front of your parents 'you're a strong woman 'be patient 'there will be time to meet your parents".Mark hugged me, I cried on his shoulder.Sso sobbing sobbing, so wet his shirt Mark , I feel bad for having done that to Mark , I should know if there is a boundary between me and Mark , I know ,so I let go of my embrace in Mark's body.
"Thank you for hearing my story, get in bed, it's almost morning".I said that while wiping my tears.
"It's the same, but promise me, I don't want to see your tears fall from your eyes like this again". I'm nodding.
"Promise?".Mark said while showing one finger that was pinky as if forcing me to promise, His smile really calms me.
"Yes promise".I said as I hooked my little finger with Mark's little finger.
"You also sleep, don't cry anymore I'm afraid you cry again".He even said it again even though he almost came out of my room.
"Yes Markk".I stood up and approached him.
"Oiya, one more thing, your fried rice is very good, cook the food again I will really like if you cook it continuously".I shook my head while smiling at him.
"Okeyy looks like you'd love me to go back to sleep, well I'll sleep, see you tomorrow Raina, may we both have a happy day".He put his hand on my shoulder.
"Amine ... Yasudah , sleep there , if it goes on like this when do you sleep? Hooahhh, I'm so sleepy".I pretended to yawn so Mark could hurry into his room. He smiled and waved his hand and left my room. I also closed my bedroom door.
"Why is Mark so good to me? She is very sweet and very romantic... Ah , what good , he's just my coworker ain't good if I think about it to him".I said, leaning on my bed, and trying to close my eyes to sleep.
