GREY MARNI
Not Wanting to Meet Each Other

The morning after a cup of coffee, Rudi left for work without looking into Salsa's room. According to Rudi it would be better so, not meeting for a while would probably cure the days without Salsa conversation.

Rudi just walked to the ground where he was stepping, occasionally he greeted some neighbors and Laura who was sweeping the courtyard of the house. Laura was like astonishment with Rudi's uncharacteristic cold demeanor.

Until at the terminal Rudi started working, he did not start a conversation with anyone, not even Erlang. Erlang's attitude also showed as if he knew Rudi was in trouble and decided to stay silent and wait for Rudi to ask him to speak.

While Rudi was silent he also thought about whether he needed to tell his story to someone other than Salsa or just enough Salsa who knew his origin and proposal.

Rudi seemed to be in a daze by what he had to do for now.

"Rud... I'm the one with the fare." said Erlang.

Rudi just nodded and Erlang started charging the fare of the passengers . All went as usual, only a few chats were missing from Rudi and the surrounding people. Rudi looked ahead, seeing people scrambling over the road and overtaking each other on the black asphalt surface. The bus drove down the empty sides of the road, the horns and roar of the engine sound collided with each other until the bus reached the destination terminal. The passengers began to disembark.

"Heeh! The deck is daydreaming!" said a mother.

"Ahhhh! Haa! Hahaha it's okay buk"

The mothers passed after ruining Rudi's daydream. The driver confirmed a few things from his seat. Erlang approached Rudi and invited him to have a cup of coffee.

"Let's go get Rud's coffee" Erlang asked slowly.

"Come"

They both walked, Rudi walked behind Erlang and Erlang ahead. Arriving at the stall where they used to coffee, Erlang ordered Rudi black coffee without sugar and sat side by side without any conversation.

"Lang, Salsa's crashing"

"Hahaha, why is it bad?" answered Erlang who heard Rudi start wanting to talk to him.

"Maybe it's PMS"

"Hahaha, it takes as much as possible"

"Hahaha, ice cream"

"Hahaha, from now on you kept quiet just because of that?"

"Hahaha, yes"

"Weak!"

It seems that Rudi's talkative has returned again, he began to invite Erlang to talk even though he did not tell the real incident. Rudi was still thinking about how good it would be for him to tell everything to his busmate.

Rudi started to feel calmer after slightly joking with Erlang. He started to go back to his normal state and started to work as usual.

It was early evening, and it was time to go home. Rudi walked home as usual and his feelings were not like when he left for work.

After arriving in front of the building where he lived. Rudi crosses paths with Salsa, but Salsa is still silent and ignores Rudi. Rudy did not say a word from his mouth. Salsa walked quickly ahead of Rudi and entered his room. Rudi also just passed through Salsa's room, stepped up the stairs and headed for her room.

"Rude! Later to the house, yes" said Laura from the front of the fence of his house.

Rudi turned his head and replied, "Yes!"

It seemed that Laura could not help her curiosity. Rudi went into the room, cleaned his body and started playing his guitar friend. Back again in all the melodies of emptiness. Lamenting how he would act next, was it necessary for him to tell everything to other than Salsa.

Adzan Magrib was already roaring, Rudi changed clothes and met Laura who was waiting in front of his house with coffee and warm milk. Rudi walked up to him and sat down on a wooden chair that seemed to have just been bought by Laura.

"What's the matter Rud?" asked Laura without further ado.

"There's nothing Ra,"

"Salsa is bad again?"

"Yes"

"Why?"

"Don't understand"

Laura drank her warm milk.

"Ra, if for example I say, I'm the son of a rich man you believe in?"

"Believe!"

"Why?"

"Hmm, maybe because you can drive an expensive car, even better than me."

"Hahaha, actually I'm really a rich kid, I'm here to find a partner"

"Hahaha, like that FTV drama?"

"Hahaha, yes..."

Rudi spontaneously recounts everything, including his origins and what was going on between him and Salsa. Laura listened carefully without giving up, not infrequently she laughed to hear how Rudi wanted to feel a love interest like a movie he often watched. A passion that Laura rarely finds, Rudi is not looking for a woman who is simple, kind-hearted and others. Rudi did not specify anything from his journey in search of a companion. He just wanted to flow and wait for God to bring in a woman who would accompany him.

Rudi told me a long time, even to the things he did not tell Salsa. Stories about the past and romance that Rudi had felt. Laura also begins to flow in a plot composed by Rudi from a story she made complicated herself.

"Hahaha isn't younger looking for a woman from your father's colleagues?"

"Hahaha, it wouldn't be exciting if it was just a straight-line story like that. Haha..."

"Hahaha, yes too. A moron like you needs a more complicated story"

"Hahaha if it can be complicated why not!"

"Ahahaha, Like my relationship. If divorce can survive,"

"Pff... Young widows, the more widows become"

"Haha..."

The chat was immediately a roasting event, they insulted each other some sad things they told each other. The emptiness in Rudi's heart began to fill with happiness and suddenly he felt he was going to start talking to Salsa. It seems like Rudi decided to start with Salsa to determine how next. Rudi began to feel lonely which he had felt all along was due to the loss of conversation with his best friend as well as his heart flowers.

Rudi and Laura chatted in front of the house. Laura started to get tired of laughing and Rudi also felt that he had run out of stories. They both decided to end the srimulat and decided to go back and rest.

Rudi walked towards his room. Climb the stairs with a happier feeling. But when he turned to face his bedroom, he saw a woman dressed in all white with a cartoon motif in blue. It looks like it's Salsa.

"Tonight I want to sleep with you" Salsa said.

Rudi just nodded and opened the door of his room.

Salsa enters Rudi's room and Rudi locks the door. He did not say a word, he just followed what Salsa asked.

Rudi prepares his bed, they both lay their bodies on the same mattress. Rudi splits his pillow for Salsa, but Salsa pulls Rudi's left hand and makes it as a headstool.

"Don't be weird" said Salsa quietly.

Rudi just nodded and started to close his eyes. Salsa too, no words came out of her mouth again and began to close her eyes.
