They also learned that no merchant was roaming about so that the whole trip could be an uninterrupted night's sleep.
Dirga himself was confused what if they were hungry or thirsty when no merchant passed by?
All of a sudden, the officer came and offered some foods and drinks such as Fried rice, rames, boiled noodles, iced tea, coffee, etc. Instantly he woke up to the conversation of several people in the same car.
"Excuse me, do you have anything to order, Sir?" the male officer politely asked.
"Umm, please let me have a three-bottle isotonic, please. Also three packs of savory snacks, by the way, three pieces of breed, if I can," he got confused, but he ended up ordering them in case Lia and Abel went hungry.
"Alright. The bread was three as well?" the officer replied.
"Yes, three of each," he answered confidently.
"Wait a minute, please." The officer walked away. Approach one passenger at a time the offer food and drink.
Dirga who woke up unwillingly, finally having trouble sleeping again. Instead, he was gazing at the milky white face beside him, with her lips slightly open and breathing very regularly.
His hand leaned up to pull Abel's head back carefully enough to rest on his shoulder. The boy's heartbeat is currently not okay. Happy, but otherwise troubled.
The girl he loved had been possessed by someone else. How could he possibly enter her heart? Dirga took a deep breath, then looked out the window and found darkness there, like his heart. It's uninhabited dark.
Shortly thereafter, the officer came back. Handed a pretty large plastic bag of Dirga's order. They thank each other, and then the officer continues his work.
DRRRTT!
Dirga turned his eyes away from Abel's face when the phone rang strongly in his pants pocket. He took the trouble to take it because he didn't want his movement to wake up Abel. Then slide the green mark on the cellphone screen after he succeeded in grabbing it.
It's not other than Rindu. Instantly, there was a crackle from across the phone.
"Hi, Sis."
"Ga, where are you?"
"It's far away, sis. It's only been a few minutes since the train go."
"My goodness, that's why I told you to get on the plane. What if you get here in the morning?"
"No way, at least ten or eleven hours I'll be there."
"That takes too long, Dirga. Pheww... take care of yourself on the way here. I'm awaiting your arrival."
"Sure, Sis. You better go to sleep, so that your face be fresh in the morning."
"Right, right. So, sleep there. I'm going to sleep too, so I don't get sleepy the next day."
"Yes, my handsome brother. Be careful, okay!"
"Mmm... bye sis."
The call ended. Time passed, and it seemed so fast, perhaps because Dirga was in a good mood. Just about to close his eyes, an officer came again, this time a beautiful, well-dressed woman carrying a bundle of blankets.
As soon as nine o 'clock at night, the training officer began handing out blankets to each passenger, as it would be very cold at night. Other than the external air factor, there is also the AC facility.
Dirga is finally able to fall into a deep sleep after putting the blanket over Abel and Lia, as well as on himself.
***
By the morning of about half-past six, an official was offering coffee, warm tea, and so forth. There is also a warm towel offered for the newly awakened passengers.
The guy woke up Abel and Lia. Each of them took a towel that had been soaked with the warm water. Sleeping in a sitting position was apparently excruciating, especially on the waist and the nape of the neck.
Then they went to the toilet in shifts, until it was time for the breakfast with the instant noodle that had been ordered by Dirga earlier on the train.
It was a most pleasant experience for the three friends. Finished filling their stomachs, they joked at each other and enjoyed the homemade snacks Dirga bought last night.
Seeing how Dirga's so special treatment of Abel, put enough pain into Lia's heart. They both look more like lovers than just regular friends. It feels that Lia's chances of getting inside Dirga's heart are becoming more and more difficult.
"Li, why are you so quiet?" Suddenly Abel brushed Lia's arm after finding the girl next to her staring blankly ahead.
"Sleepy," Lia brief answered.
"Just go to sleep," told Abel, "or take this snack to help you stay awake," she said, handing a packet of snacks to Lia.
"No, I'm full." Lia folded her hands toward her chest, then leaned back against the chair's back and closed her eyelids. "Keep it down, you two, I'm dizzy, wanna go sleep."
Abel and Dirga looked at each other. A small chuckles at the sight of Lia that does seem woozy. Fell into a deep sleep shortly.
Lia was surprised when Abel woke her up. It didn't seem that long ago she was asleep, but they arrived at their destination.
They left the station where the train they had just ridden stopped. The weather feels so hot even if it's still early in the morning. Given that Dirga still had to wait for a ride from his sister's driver, Abel excuses herself to left immediately to find Dani.
Honestly, Dirga feel sorry for her, didn't want to let Abel walk around Surabaya on her own to find her boyfriend. But he also was in a hurry to make it on time for his sister's wedding.
"You guys take care on the way. Call me directly, if something happens," Dirga told Abel.
The girl nodded slightly, not forgetting to throw her prettiest smile at Dirga. "I've grown up, so don't worry like that. Besides there is Lia, she is so sophisticated when it comes to finding someone's address," she is teasing Lia as she gives a pat on the shoulder.
"That's right, Ga. You just relax," said Lia.
"Alright then, there's a taxi on the other side. You remember, call me if anything happens." Dirga reminds them again.
The two beautiful girls only nodded in understanding as an answer. They left Dirga on the side of the road and take a leisurely walk to the nearby cabs.
Shortly after Abel and Lia left, a silver-colored car approached Dirga. A well-dressed driver stepped off the vehicle. Say hello to the handsome guy on the side of the road.
"Good morning, I'm Tito, Mr. Dani's driver. You're Mrs. Rindu's little brother, aren't you?" he said politely.
"Yes, Sir. I'm Dirga, Rindu's little brother. You're coming to pick me up, right?" He replied to it, even also with polite speech.
"Right. Thank god you arrived in Surabaya safely. In that case, let's just go straight to Mrs. Rindu and Mr. Dani's building to run their marriage," said Mr. Tito.
