Room No.11B
Part. 123


At 23:15.


I woke up because my stomach was hungry. I was looking for food that I would have kept, nil. No food at all, not even a pack of instant noodles. There are only a few packs of coffee. Damn, this situation is very disturbing and uncomfortable.


Mas Gun had been sleeping since, he was bare-chested. His large body makes sweat glands in his body always sweat excess. No wonder if he sleeps on the floor without a pedestal and turn on the fan with the largest volume.


I made a cup of coffee, I sat in the front room. My eyes are on the phone screen. Ah, nothing interesting.


Trings. A message coming in? The tika? What are these nights Tika sends a message.


Cubaca.


- Di, have you slept yet? -


Kubal.


not yet Tik. I'm getting tired again; D -


Trings. Tika replied again.


- Here come out! I have instant noodles, will you? -


I'll take another message from Tika.


- Want to want mauuuu :') -


Thankfully, the wind is not going anywhere. I also went out of the room, before long Tika came out, her hand was holding two packs of instant noodles.


"Why are you?" ask Tika. "Now!" Tika handed me two packs of instant noodles.


"So, I didn't eat Tik. Hehehehe. Uh thanks a lot." I reply.


Tika did not go straight into the room, he sat on the front porch of his room. His face implies that there is something he is hiding and he can't help telling it.


"Can't you sleep?" my many.


Tika shakes.


"So soon, I'm brewing noodles first. I'll talk later." I said.


I went into the room, I opened a pack of instant noodles. I brewed instant noodles with hot water. Then go back out and sit on the front porch of my room.


"Why can't you sleep Tik? Is there anything else in mind?" my many.


"Yeahh." Tika took a long breath. "I don't know, I'm confused as to what I'm thinking." replied Tika.


"Lho's? Kok that, there can't be no one in Tik's mind, surely in a small heart there is an answer and only you know." I said.


Tika. He smiles.


"If I think about what Di is?" ask Tika.


I'm woken.


"Thinking me? Hahahahahahaha." I'm wide-eyed.


"Why laugh? Funny guy?" ask Tika.


I wiped the tears on my cheek.


"It's not funny, but I'm surprised. What made you think about me? Hehehehehe." I said.


I poured the cooked instant noodles into the bowl. Open the seasoning and pour the oil. Stirring instant noodles slowly. The smoke billows thin, the aroma is delicious appetizing.


"I was confused, what made me think. Since then Di.." said Tika.


"Since we went to nature to save Yuda, since you survived my life several times. Since you're not the weak Adi you used to be." replied Tika.


I'm silent. Tika was silent.


The sound of crickets rang out between my silence and Tika. The night wind that shook the branches of the trees ushered us into endless silence. I don't know what to say, I don't know how to respond.


"Continue?" my spoken.


Tika looked in my eyes.


"Sorry Di, I can't hide my feelings" Tika said.


"meaning?" I asked back. Instant noodles still look hot. I haven't bribed him once.


"Gue likes you" said Tika.


Deg deg deg deg deg. My heart is beating fast. Never in my whole life has a woman expressed her feelings for me. I froze. Lips tight. My tongue. I came back in silence. Tika did not continue her words.


"What does Tik mean?" I asked myself to ask Tika. My heart is still beating.


Tika did not answer, his face looked up, saw the black sky decorated with stars scattered. The moon looks only half, its rays reveal beauty.


"Gue didn't expect an answer from Lo Di. I just express my feelings, feelings that lately feel stuck and make me uncomfortable. I don't expect to be dating or dating. Because I know, you prefer Kemala. Aye right?" said Tika.


I didn't respond right away. Indeed, in my little heart I still hope with Kemala. But again I realized, I was nobody in the eyes of Kemala.


"Udah, lupain aja Di. Assume I never talked like I just now. I go in first. Thank you I have been chatting." said Tika as she entered the room and locked the door.


I still kept quiet not saying. Suddenly my hunger was gone.***** my meal was instantly gone. I was confused as to what to say to Tika. What do I have to answer? Instant noodles are cold, the appearance is no longer appetizing. The smell is gone.


I also went into the room, carrying a bowl of instant noodles that I did not eat. I sat in the front room. The coffee I made earlier was already cold, as cold as my attitude towards Tika just now.


I'm putting my body on the bed. I forced my eyes closed and hoped that drowsiness would strike me soon.


* * *


The dawn alarm on my phone rang. I got up and performed the dawn prayer. Uh, like something's missing. But what is it? After the dawn prayer and a short remembrance, I was still sitting on the prayer mat. Think about that missing thing. What yes? What feels lost?


"Pinjem prayer mats At." Mas Gun was about to perform the dawn prayer. I gave him the prayer that I was sitting on.


My mind feels bad, I don't know what I'm feeling. No, not because of Tika's talk last night. It's different, but I haven't found the answer yet, what's missing.


Oh, my God, that's right. Tonight there's no interruption at three o'clock. I feel like something is missing. Usually, at exactly three o'clock at night there are always distractions that make me wake up from sleep. There were no baby cries, no weird dreams, or any demite sightings in my room. Tonight feels different.


"That's who's noodle in?" ask Mas Gun so greetings.


"Follow it first, call out greetings instead directly ask noodles." I said. "That's my noodles, I didn't eat last night because I was sleepy." I continued.


"Hooooaaaammu! Go back to sleep again. Di, I'll wake up at seven." said Mas Gun while laying down his big body.


I didn't answer Mas Gun's request. I was just sitting in the front room, enjoying the cool morning air because the door to my room was wide open.


Chequek. I heard the door lock sound in the turn. Is that from Tika's room?


I saw the figure of Tika walking out, towards the garage. He was carrying a bag not too big. His hair was tied to a ponytail, he wore a beige jacket and jeans. His face was bowed with quick footsteps.


"Anything! Tik, where are Tik going? Yepoo!" call me out loud and loud.


But Tika did not turn her head in the slightest, let alone look, stopped her steps just did not. I stood up, saw his figure disappear after the garage. Where would he go blind this morning? Did I do anything wrong to her? Is it because there was no response from me last night? There's a wedge in my heart, a sense of loss seeing Tika leave without saying goodbye to me. Although I don't know where he's going yet, but I don't think I want to be far from Tika.


The morning sky was still dark, the sound of birds had not even been heard. The fog is still visible with a profusion, blurring the view. The air this morning is quite cold, maybe it has gone into the rainy season, the wind that blows feels cooler than usual.
