Sharing a blanket


Siska who is not sleepy chose to watch the show on television. In addition, he wanted to hear good news from Yudha after returning from Bang Tigor's house. Previously he had prepared a bottle of soft drinks that had just been removed from the refrigerator. Not to forget the packaged potato crackers that have been poured on the plate as friends watch tonight. It was all laid out on a wooden table in front of a television table.


Siska sat on the couch. It felt like Siska hadn't been relaxing like this for a long time. The night before this, he prefers to spend time in the child's room until sleepy and sleep there.


"Hahahaha..," his laughter had not stopped, looking at the funny scene after scene on a comedy show. His sense of humor is indeed dime until tears come out of his petals.


An hour had already pampered himself. But the sleepiness has not come. His eyes were still round ready to welcome the next event. He took a bowl of chips and took them to his lap.


The sound of a car entering the yard, then stopped followed by the sound of a closed car door. It must be Yudha.


Sure enough, ten counts then the main door opened. And Yudha went through it into the house. Carrying the aroma of cigarettes that immediately spread throughout the room, until smelled by Siska who was still cool to enjoy the television show.


"You want a soda?" Siska said as soon as Yudha entered the family room.


"Enga ah." he refused and sat down on the bench next to where Siska was sitting.


"I know !!" Siska stood up. Accidentally said Yudha. "Coffee ya.., I made."


Yudha nodded at his wife's offer. In his heart Yudha was grateful for the change in Siska's attitude towards him. Yudha ignored whatever the cause of the change, which obviously made her happy.


Moments later, Siska returned with a cup of black coffee. Put it on the table right in front of Yudha. The smell is very dull.


"Heeemmm." Yudha.


"Drink, don't just breathe." Siska said.


Immediately Yudha poured the coffee that was still emitting smoke into a small plate that was used as a base cup. Then sip without blowing it.


"How are you doing Bang Tigor?" Siska started the conversation.


"It's still the same as the first time he came home. Round, big, talkative." Yudha said while pouring the second coffee. Then let it cool.


"She was so nice, I had a long conversation with her. He told me about his family and his journey to Jogja. uh he said, he found you in the square. Ngalor snidul while carrying a bundle of clothes. continuessss...." Siska stopped her story waiting for Yudha's response.


"So I hit the garden lamp post, and I slipped a banana peel." Yudha continued


"Hahahaha.yes.. hahahah."


"When I have the pole, the intention is to avoid.eee keeps my head forward."


"mahaha." Siska is getting dipped.


For a moment Yudha fell silent enjoying the laughter she had not heard for a long time. Then Siska realized that she was being noticed.


"Why stop laughing?"


"Then pay attention to you" he said then sipped the soda that had been poured in the glass.


"Bang Tigor's place I met Jangkung."


"Horn?"


"Whether his real name is, Bang Tigor forced to call him Jangkung. Because of his tall body." Terang Yudha's. Then continue the story of the meeting.


Siska gave her full attention. His eyes were fixed on Yudha's lips, without pause telling the story. Plus the nimble movement of his hands demonstrated what happened at Bang Tigor's house. There was much hope emanated from the look of Yudha's eyes.


Until the night gets late. Yudha and Siska are still chatting. As if repeating things they used to always do when they met on the phone, which was talking all night. Tells of every incident that happened as long as they did not meet.


***


Siska from Surabaya. He returned to his usual activities. Many tasks from his latest project that he has to complete. Siska who is very passionate about doing her work, not infrequently she comes home late for overtime, or deliberately finishes her work at home. Siska did it so that her new project would be immediately released.


However, no matter how late he slept. Will not interfere with morning activities. The new time showed at six o'clock exactly, when Siska had just finished her last gymnastic movement.then she would walk to the kitchen and pick up cereal for breakfast.


"kringgggggg.." The ringing of his gangamm phone was interrupted between breakfast time. Who's he who called her this early. Siska ignored all phone calls before she arrived at the office. Unless there was an appointment. So he continued his breakfast until the last mouthful.


In this house Siska lives with her brother and sister. At that time his sister was still in school, only second grade high school. While her brother had married, her brother kindly invited Siska and her sister to stay at the house.


Given the high cost of living in a metropolitan city. Siska chose to stay with her sister, as well as to save her sister more often out of town accompanying her husband on business trips.


Siska's sister came out of her room. Placing a towel around his neck. Then walk towards Siska at the dining table.


"What breakfast?"


"Cereal."


"I have breakfast at school." Dimas then walked to the bathroom.


"Save on sparing. Life is not just today."


Siska Syndir.


"Relax.., I just got paid for advertising promos." Sangkal Dimas who was already in the bathroom.


"Eh speaking of design, help me design a poster yes."


"Wani piro?" Said Dimas popping out his head that was already filled with foam.


"Relax, this is for work not for college. There's a price."


"Well obviously" said Dimas. "Thank you for that phone. From earlier krang kring continues." nagging then.


Siska shakes her head. "Later in the office." He said, then tidied up his old dining table.


Siska and Dimas have always been together since childhood. Their age is four years. Dimas who can actually go to school in Bandung with his parents, chose to join Siska who initially will study in Jakarta. Siska is on the verge of graduating and has secured a promising job.


After finishing tidying up the table, Siska took her gang's phone, saw who called her from earlier. Yudha's name was on the top of the call list a second later Yudha called her again.


"Hay what's wrong?" Siska could not bear to continue to ignore dozens of unanswered messages from Yudha.


"At last raised as well, I guess you forgot about me, so don't want to pick up my phone. Long time the man picked up the phone." grumbled Yudha


"I won't pick up the phone this early. Anyway I'm still at home, cook I have to talk about office business. Call him at the office. I hung up on him."


"Wait a minute.." - Pinta Yudha. "lhhh.., who's gonna talk about the job."


"So what?"


"I miss you last night."


"Ishhh ngaco.., yes uda is yes, continue when is it. I'm gonna take a shower."


"I.e.," said Yudha who was not heard by Siska because she had hung up. "Damn, shut down again." he lamented


This is the first time Yudha has ventured to call Siska, since her second meeting in Surabaya. Unfortunately, he chose the wrong time. Definitely next time he'll call Siska at the right time.


Yudha who was in his car that was stuck in front of a kindergarten, after Siska disembarked his pangilan, Yudha immediately ran the steering wheel to go to the Office.


***


"It's been a long time since we've been talking about gini." The word Yudha tells his story about meeting with Bang Tigor and the Jungle. Then he yawned and stretched his body.


"Father is old, it's getting sleepy at this hour."


"Don't call me father..." Yudha was always angry when Siska called him Father.


"So?"


"Darling," said the spoiled Yudha.


"Yes, my dear is old now." Yudha smiled hearing that. "So you want to rest now?" siska offers.


"Enga, hug you first." Yudha is still trying


"Come on." Siska said then extended her hand. They cuddle.


"Tonight sleep in our room ya." whispered Yudha as their embrace grew warmer.


"Yes." Yeah."


Hearing Siska's reply, Yudha let go of her embrace. Staring inside his wife, then the two met each other. Now they are pounding with the same rhythm. A rhythm full of love and warmth.


Without waiting for long, Yudha took his wife, climbed the stairs and entered their room.


For both of them this was the first time they would sleep in this room. Yes of course because it turns out that during Siska sleeping in their child's room, Yudha chose to sleep in the family room sova. Yudha too if she had to be in the room alone. The next morning before Siska woke up, she would go into her room to clean up and worship.


And tonight was the first time for them to share a blanket. After a long time Yudha patiently and confidently proved to Siska his efforts to make Siska happy.


Siska, who had seen and felt this earnestness, was now devastated and fully believed in Yudha. The love between the two is back.
