A Light Fountain

Childhood friend

**

The sunlight makes up for the window slits, forming a straight line inside the room space.

Assena was awake, but she was still lazing. He was so reluctant to get out of bed.

He knew it was almost noon, but since it was still a holiday and there were no activities, he chose to be faithful in bed to just sleep chickens.

The breakfast that bi Nem delivered on the table, had not been touched at all. A glass of milk that was hot has now become cold.

Someone opened the door and heard footsteps. Assena heard it, but she was really lazy to just open her eyes. He thought that bi Nem had just entered his room.

The window curtains had opened, the sunlight directly hitting Assena's face.

"Auntie don't open the curtains, I still want to sleep." He spoke in a raucous voice while turning his body to avoid the sunlight.

"Are you sure you don't want to wake up?" said someone who was sitting on the edge of the bed.

Assena was surprised to hear that, she immediately opened her eyes. He recognized the voice, instantly turning his body.

And who is now in front of him?

When his eyes saw who was in front of him, he immediately woke up.

"Oh my god, Yumna!" his screeches. His coat was fully rounded, his palm raised shut his mouth for being so unexpected.

Yumna smiled, opening her hands, as if asking Assena to hug her.

Instantly, Assena cuddled the beautiful girl with the shoulder-length straight hair, who was none other than her cousin.

"I miss you." Yumna said in her arms.

"I miss you too." Assena said that the clear liquid fell from the corner of her eye. He was so excited, so happy to meet his cousin.

"When did you come back? why not tell me" Assena said, letting go of her embrace.

"Yesterday night I just arrived, deliberately not telling you. I'm gonna give you a surprise." The beautiful girl smiled.

"And you managed to surprise me half to death." Assena immediately pinched Yumna's cheek.

"Are you glad I'm back?".

"Of course I'm so happy, I'm glad you're going to college here with me."

"I also didn't expect Dad to ask me to move here again, I'm so glad we'll be together again."

"Then where's Rey's uncle and Lusi's aunt?" ask Assena.

"Mom and Dad are downstairs."

"really? I miss auntie very much. Long time no see."

"Hurry down!" bring Yumna.

"So soon, I'll take a shower first." Assena gets out of bed, she goes into the bathroom.

While Yumna, pay attention to the room. He walked over to the picture of his late mother Assena, staring deep and long. "Auntie" he said.

Then he walked towards the balcony, he stood looking around from up there. His attention was on someone down there, a young man bathing a bird in a cage, who was seen spraying water with special tools to bathe the bird.

"Who is that man?" his inner.

"What do you see?" assena's voice was so shocking.

Yumna turned her head, looking as if Assena was drying her hair with a small towel.

"Who is that man?" yumna asked a glance down there, she could not help but ask.

Assena followed Yumna's line of sight. "He's Altur, do you remember him?" tanyakanya.

"Altur?" yumna's forehead shriveled.

"Yes, son of bi Nem and sir Sur."

"Altur friend played when we were kids?" Yumna voiced out in shock. Raised his gaze to look at Assena.

Assena nodded. "He's going to college here with us, he just came yesterday."

"Yes that's how." Assena said as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Let's say hello to him, does he still remember me." Take Yumna with Assena's hand.

"Wait a minute, I'll comb my hair first".

--

One by one Yumna descended the stairs with vigor while holding Assena's hand.

Arkan and Evelin are Rey and Lusi.

Rey and Lusi stand up when they see Yumna and Assena coming.

"Darling how are you?" rey hugged her nephew.

"I'm good uncle," replied Assena smiling.

"Don't see you in a long time, aunt misses you." Now it turns Lusi who hugs Assena.

"I miss my aunt too" assena said with a smile.

"Let's go fast Assena!" take Yumna who has already pulled Assena's hand.

"Where are you going?" ask Arkan.

"We want to go around uncle first, I want to take a look around here." Answer Yumna.

"Oh well."

The footsteps of Assena and Yumna headed out, about to approach Altur who was bathing the bird.

Altur stood on their backs.

"Come on!" whispered Yumna pulled the hand of Assena who was standing still unwilling to step again to get closer to Altur.

"You're the one who wants to say hello." Tukas Assena half whispered as well.

"You must also accompany me."

"No!"

"Come on!"

"No!"

The noise had already managed to make Altur pay attention to the two girls. He stood with a frown and still held a spray device in his hand.

When they realized that Altur was watching them, the girls felt a little embarrassed, and Yumna cleared her throat.

"Eh hay.." Yumna slightly raised her hand waving with a nervous smile.

Altur replied with a smile.

"Did you still remember me?" ask Yumna.

"Do you know me?" Altur asked back.

"I'm Yumna, we're childhood friends." Yumna.

For a moment Altur seemed to think about remembering the girl in front of him.

"Ah yes, Yumna is Miss Assena's cousin huh? I remember, I remember." Said Altur seraya mangut-mangut.

"It's good if you still remember me, how are you?" yumna asked while thrusting her hand.

"As you can see." The altar welcomed the hand.

"It's been a long time." Altur continued smiling but not infrequently his gaze glanced at Assena who was just silent.

Finally, the three childhood friends talked at length, sitting in an iron chair in the park. All about Yumna and Altur, because Assena only listened, he did not talk much.

They dissolve in the conversation considering the past childhood.
