Surviving Within the Boundaries of Asa
Chapter 2

It was getting dark when Ane walked out of the public funeral gate . With a messy appearance and dirty clothes exposed to the grave ground . He had to walk, to get to the big road .

How many times has Uber that Ane ordered declined, with the excuse 'sorry mbak is asking to be picked up in front of the grave, maghrib rich gini ' .

There was even an ojek that had come but instead ran away to see the appearance of Ane .

Haha ... Do they think I'm a lost ghost ?

sure enough, I am a lost soul .

Hoping for a taxi to stop, Ane stands on the sidewalk of the road . Truly today he was very tired and wanted to rest, not to mention the stomach that thrashed the mouth asked for in the contents . natural course , since morning there has been nothing that goes into Ane's stomach other than a bottle of soy milk that she bought at the store near her boarding house while waiting for her online ojek to come .

Shaking her head, Ane tried to banish the sense of dizziness that whack . the longer her body as if numb, and finally ..

BRUKKK

Ane fell unconscious on the sidewalk , arrived just a car stopped next to Ane . Her driver rushed out and carried Ane into his car .

The man drove his car anxiously, while occasionally seeing an unconscious Ane in the back seat .

After driving for about fifteen minutes, he had already arrived at the small clinic . With Ane in her sling the man walked into the clinic and asked the nurse to check on Ane .

in the room, Ane who has been given treatment began to wake up .

" Hey, you're awake . how do you feel ? " ask the man .

" Just a little dizzy, where am I ? and who are you ? " ask Ane

" I saw you lying on the side of the road, and taking you to the nearest clinic . said your doctor exhausted, starving, and dehydrated" explained the man

" My name is Rio , you can thank me now "joked Rio

" I'm sorry, I'm Ane . Thank you afterwards Rio "

reply Ane tried to get up to sit up .

" Alright Ane , where your house let me drop off . the doctor said you can rest at home , no need for anyone to worry "Rio said while helping Ane sit up .

" Thank you, I'll go home by myself . Let me just order a taxi online . I've been enough to trouble you Rio "Ane explained

" It's okay, let me do good until it's done . Are you able to walk alone or do I need to carry another, Ane ? " question Rio jokingly ,

Ane's face flushed red, hearing Rio's question .

" I'm fine, then thank you again "

Ane answered, she stood up slowly . then walked with Rio out of the room, when she reached the front desk Ane took out the wallet from her bag to pay the bill . but it turned out to have been paid by Rio , when he wanted to replace Rio refused . And said that Ane could buy her a meal to reimburse the clinic .

And this is where Ane , in the car with Rio .they're looking for the right place to eat .

when the traffic light is red , Rio stopped his car .

' *still wash the wound

which you've created before

you sayat back

above the old pain

never been a dream

dry up tears

remembering romance

who now lives delirium* '

Suddenly a song was heard from the roadside bandrek stall, near the red light .

Ane opened the car window staring at the bandrek stall playing the song .

" You want to drink that ? " question Rio while seeing Ane focus on bandrek stalls .

" no, I just want to hear her song "Ane replied while closing the car window .

Not long the lights turn green, the road car slowly . After taking ten minutes , the car stopped in front of a quite luxurious restaurant .

Ane was still in the car until Rio opened his car door, he was thinking whether his savings money was enough to pay for the food here . Because a fancy restaurant like this, one meal can spend half of his salary . "emm Rio .. can we change places . sorry not his calculation, but I haven't payday " ane's great-grandson who was still silent in the car .

" hahaha, Ane let me treat . You can treat me another time , come on I'm already very hungry "joke Rio .

Slowly Ane got out of the car, followed Rio into the resto .

Rio entered and spoke at the receptionist, then went inside .the vip resto room with Ane .

not how long came the two maids who brought a lot of dishes . Ane was confused, whether this kind of service in the restaurant is expensive . They both have not ordered , but the dishes are already in between .

The two of them ate in silence, both Ane and Rio were busy in each other's minds.After they had dinner , Rio delivered Ane to his front boarding house .

" Ane, can I have your phone number ? to make it easy for me to charge your treat "Rio spoke with an awkward smile, before Ane got out of the car . " When you have time, you can come here . I come home from work, always at the boarding house" replied Ane

"Then every time I have time, I'll come bother you "reply Rio . Ane got out of the car after saying thank you once again to Rio . she was looking forward to Rio car leaving before getting inside her boarding gate . Not yet Ane stepped her hand has been cheated by someone .

" Where have you been all day, who drove you home ? " Alingga asked Ane without releasing her hand checks .

Ane was a little surprised to find Alingga was here, instantly she felt stupid for entering her residential address in the application form .

" It's none of your business "answered Ane smashing Alingga's hand and going to her boarding room .

Alingga chased Ane to the front door of Ane's boarding room, Ane opened the door quickly and closed it but Alingga's hand held her back . Alingga pushed open the door and entered into Ane's room .

" You haven't answered my question, do you know I've been waiting for you since noon . ever since you left my office "Sentak Alingga , at that time he just noticed Ane's clothes were dirty with soil . Directly he approached Ane and hugged her . " Sorry ... Sorry I love "sorry Alingga

she should have known her Ane wouldn't go with another man, her Ane wouldn't do anything .

Ane let go of Alingga's embrace and said "I want to take a shower, you can wait outside after that we just talked "

" I wait here " replied Alingga shamelessly

Ane lazily argued, lightning-fast Ane took a change of clothes and went into the bathroom .

Spent half an hour in the bathroom Ane came out in a fresh looking appearance .

Alingga who was laying down her body on the small bed of Ane, immediately got up and brought Ane into her arms . Inhaling the scent of her lover whom she longed for .

Ane just fell silent without returning his embrace, even to cry he was no longer able to anymore . already every night he cried Alingga who without news , and all day Ane wept over Alingga beside her parents' grave .
