A Tale of Ary

35. Not a Mate

"What are we doing today, Bun?" ask Ary in the morning after finishing the shower and morning prayers.

Ary walked up to Mother who was peeling onions in the kitchen. Ary was going to help prepare breakfast for them.

"Make your favorite fried rice, sambal teri mix tempeh with pete. You just clamp eggs, do not forget to make egg omelet as usual. You'd rather have an omelet than a plunge, wouldn't you?" mother's orders.

"Asianapp!" ary replied as he raised his hand in salute to Mother.

Ary turns on the stove and starts frying the eggs. While frying Ary daydreams, his mind is still fixed on Eno's story about Alex yesterday. Without him noticing any more tears.

"Snake out!" eno shouted as she approached Ary, then turned off the stove.

Mother who was washing Teri Medan at that time, reflex to throw the anchovy because of shock to hear Eno scream.

Eno who saw Mother even laughed while holding her stomach.

"Haha"

Ary was apparently not affected at all by Eno's scream. He was still cool to daydream, but the moment he heard Eno laugh made him wake up from his daydream.

"Eno! You just want to meet Mother! Look so Mommy threw away her net fish!" angry Mother because of shock and throw anchovies held by her into the garbage basket.

"Sorry Mother! Than a good fire lost a handful of anchovies, Bund!" eno replied while holding back a laugh.

"Ary what's wrong, son?" ask Mommy.

"Kok from yesterday Mommy notice you just moody! What is it, the story here is the same Mother" said Mother gently while rubbing Ary's head.

" Aja Bund later, if you already understand the cooking." replied Ary avoids the question Mother.

"That's Bund, Ary's been left married to an ex!" chirps Eno.

"Eno!" ary shouted begging Eno not to tell anyone about the problem.

"Just tell Ar, let's get all the plong out!" eno replied, not keeping quiet.

"If there is a problem, it must be solved, do not drag on. If there is something in the heart must be issued to be relieved, let no one block again!" mother's Advice.

"That's Bund, the Ary is sad because Alex married first without news.7 years Ary wait, but suddenly he came home with a baby. Who isn't sad, Bund? My sister so Ary's been looking for another one!" cerocos Eno with passion.

Ary just kept quiet, he continued frying eggs, tempeh and anchovies. After that Ary continued to make his favorite fried rice.

They served all the dishes on the dining table. Afterwards the three of them sat around the dining table.

"We're having breakfast waiting for Dad to come home, Bund" said Ary.

"Our fate is the same, Bund!" said Eno starting the conversation.

"How's it?" ask Mommy.

"Yes! Both are heartbroken for loving people of different religions." replied Eno.

"Don't bring religion into your love story. Because all of this has been explained by God. It is God's determination of who we are. The soul mate, life, death and fortune have become His decree without us being able to refute, without we can change at any time." Mother's advice.

"If Alex is married first to you, that means he's close. If you are not united also because you are not a match. Likewise with you Eno, if Ronald can not be with you anymore it has also become a suratan of your destiny." continued Mother.

"God knows what is good for you. God let our loved ones go, for God will replace them with those who love us."

"God is also the one who turns the hearts of his people, he may not love you today. Tomorrow he's gone mad thinking about you who won't go out of his mind. He's your love slave."

"You know Ary, the love story of the late Om Sofyan Mother's sister?" ask Ary.

"It is God's will, if God wants us to be in a match with someone who is our destiny. We can only go through all of that with sincerity. It is heavy indeed, but God will not test his people beyond the limits of the people's own ability." Mother ended her advice, because the sound of Dad's motorbike was heard outside.

"Assynoltom..." My father said hello when he entered the house through the side door.

"Wa'alaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarokatuh." replied Mother, Ary and Eno in unison.

Dad walked straight into the bathroom, to wash his hands and feet.

"Why did you come home long?" ask Ary.

"Yes, I met RT on the street. So I had a chat with RT sir" replied Dad.

"Ary's starving it, Dad!" seloroh Mother's.

"Let's eat, when you're hungry! Ulu ulu pityan father's son!" dad said while sitting down to join in for breakfast as well.

Ary spooned rice to Dad's plate, then changed the Mother's plate. Last time he scoops for himself.

"Woi, where am I? I'm not getting it all!" Eno pretended to sulk.

"You too, Kirain will take it for himself!" ary replied.

"Udah, I'll take it myself!" eno said while scooping the rice for herself.

Ary giggles to hear Eno grumble.

"You guys always fight, when do you get along?" ask Mommy.

"We do not fight times, Mother who misinterpreted our jokes" replied Ary.

"Here you go, let's pray and eat!" said Father.

An hour later Eno and Ary went for a walk to the bathhouse near their village. A historical bathhouse. The bath is now one of the tourist destinations of the area.

They were just walking around, not intending to swim. They are also culinary tours, because this place also has many stalls with the mainstay menu of the area.

"Hmmm... yummy!" ary said while enjoying the fried wader fish until his lips were so excited to enjoy the food.

"Slowly eat it, I will not ask for this! If it's less, take mine!" said Eno.

"I've been eating this fish for a long time, Sego wader mixed Yuyu. Simple food is cheap but healthy" said Ary while bribing fish into his mouth.

"Ear all to their fullness, let them forget!" said Eno.

"Don't talk about them, No! They're not the best mate for us" Ary said.

"Well, let's hope we get a better mate than them" said Eno.

"Ammiin!" they said they were both in unison.

"I haven't been here in a long time. Kangen eat fried yuyu covered in sambel ijo. It's wuih, it's addictive!" Ary was too excited about enjoying Yuyu fritters like a person who had not eaten a year.

Eno who saw Ary eating also rose his appetite. Without them noticing, they had already spent a few servings. After the satiety they just ended the show eating sego Yuyu.
