Aara is Not Lara

The Fierce Bar-Bar Boy

Cracking..

That abstract sound came from the friction of Ara's joint bones. Stretching a tired body that is more than 10 hours almost faithful to the sitting position. Draining energy and brain in favor of a single value without the – (minus) that accompanies.

“Capek?” A low voice greeted suddenly.

“Eh? I-Yes Kek.” Climbing with both hands held up, it was fortunate that there was no strange smell. The radiant face still could not lie that Ara had not yet taken a bath, even though the sun continued to move up.

That morning, Ara confidently greeted the morning on the porch without dressing up. At first glance if noticed Ara's appearance does not look like the granddaughter of the owner of a magnificent house that has been neatly wrapped in his expensive suit.

Ara's appearance is very relaxed with a green t-shirt that looks stretchy collar because often Ara pull to wipe the sweat on the top of the lips or cover her mouth when yawning to resist drowsiness. Similarly, the black shorts of fabric material he wears, really a perfect blend in the morning on a sunny afternoon.

“Udah breakfast?”

“Udah, was brought to room.” Reply Ara quickly with a clumsy smile. For a moment he realized it was not polite to eat in the room, even though the host was in the house. But what else to say if his brain was not to think more wisely.

“According not to your taste?”

“Iya, Cake, fits.” Answer Ara briefly while moving clumsily. He stretched his body back. Pretending to be busy with obscure activities. Hoping for the middle-aged figure beside him to quickly pass, as Ara felt disinclined to leave Grandpa Baren first.

Tin.. Tin..

The sound of the motor horn rang out loud from behind the towering gate. A glance could Ara see Grandpa Baren nodding at the gesture given by the gatekeeper. It seemed like the guests who had come were already quite well known by the guards.

And sure enough, when a motorcycle shot in, Ara saw himself also know who had just come. Observing closely without taking her eyes off, Ara frowned in surprise.

Taps.

Taps.

Taps.

The footsteps were getting closer. Bringing a smile that gets bigger every step of the way. Handsome, yet unsettling to Ara. More precisely not the type of Ara.

“Ngapain Brother to here?” Ask Ara ketus. Actually Ara accidentally said fiercely, but the sentence that spoke spontaneously from his lips as if spitting pepper spray.

“Excellent same guest like that.” Snorting bitterly while glancing cynically, Ara clearly looked annoying in her eyes.

‘Here I'm also guest of kali.’ Ara sewot said in her heart. His lips almost touched directly if not prevented his common sense. There was Grandpa Baren nearby, an old figure that Ara realized was struggling to get closer to her.

Ara understood his sentence indirectly could have touched Grandfather's conscience. Unfortunately despite trying to understand each other, so long without interaction makes both of them quiet in awkwardness.

“Oh yes, this is a deposit from Papi, Kek.. Said this herbal drink is good for sore linu.”

“Repot-Repot by Papi mu Ric.. Thank you yes.” Said Grandpa Baren while reaching for a package that was not too big from Gilang's hand.

“Iya, Cake, equally.” Silang spoke softly accompanied by a small nod.

“Against returning to City B? Not taking time off this semester, right?” Ask Ara who was curious why Gilang was long enough still in K City.

“Sore will be home. Today there is no class, continue tomorrow also class afternoon.” Said Gilang explaining.

“Grandfather stay inside first huh.. You invite Eric in also Ra, or can sit on the bench there.” Appoint Grandpa Baren on a table and a minimalist paddled chair in the middle of the flower garden. “Let's let Grandpa ask Auntie to drop drinks to you.”

“Iya, Cake. Ara Sama Bang Gilang chat outside aja.” Said Ara while looking at Grandpa Baren at a glance, then the look in her eyes fell on Gilang who stood still with a framing smile.

Leaving the two youngsters who also passed towards the seats in the garden, Grandpa Baren ordered Auntie the kitchen manager to bring drinks and snacks for Ara and Gilang.

“Ara follow Brother home huh?”

“Ara follow Brother huh?” Said Ara with a whine while putting on her sweet and cute pretentious face. Dangerous behavior that can shoot right at the heart, blow up and destroy the Rava defense. Lucky figure in front of Ara is currently Gilang who does not look at Ara as ‘women’, but the boy bar-bar ferocious.

“Cute where?”

“Where are you Kak?”

The questions that are spoken simultaneously attack from the front and rear. Choosing to twist her body, Ara found Papa Yudith approaching barefoot. Looks like Papa Yudith just enjoyed a natural massage of the small rocks arranged around the park.

“Pa, Brother went home with Bang Gilang huh? Mamas the same Ndut easy permission, if Brother is complicated. Moreover this exam week.” Persuade Ara as she waved her lips.

“Before Papa had a discussion with Mama, we went home this morning. But your grandfather's code asks for another day here. So yes tomorrow we just came home with travel, a road trip yes. If you have to board the five planes again make Papa skinny impromptu.”

“Stres aja can finish rice one rice cooker, how do you want skinny?” Ara grumbled without lowering her voice.

“Tau it mending Brother go home first Pa. The terminal is also not far from here, take public transportation kular deh.” Ara continued in her grunt.

“Papa who is not calm you go home alone so.” Sweeping the top of Ara's head fondly, Papa Yudith looked at Gilang who nodded as if agreeing with his words.

“Ya besides actually the same brother of the children can go home first if Mama wants to miss here first.”

“Tau himself Sis, Mama where can take off hands like Rian. If Brother same Mamas left behind can still be a bit quiet your Mama. Sure you can take care of yourself. If your sister is that one, just want to turn on the stove Mama was worried. How would you like to be released home far from the observation?”

“Padahan Rian if left Mama guard stalls also full continuously. Mamas will be her sister dimasakin.” Say Ara while thinning the smile in line.

“You want to go home to City B today Lang?” Ask Papa Yudith suddenly to Gilang who had been faithful to listen to the chatter full of whimpers and grunts Ara.

“Iya, Om. This afternoon just left. Was going to take Papi to Grandpa Baren in the afternoon, all right to leave. But Papi has been fussy telling between this morning.” Clearly Crossed.

“If Ara comes home with you no problem?” Ask Papa Yudith to make sure. Although his family is accustomed to the presence of Gilang, but still must know the courtesy if asking for help.

“Nothing Om. Can make Gilang temen also sih.” Said Gilang assented. “You want to go home with Brother?”

“You will if you get permission. Let's quickly arrive and tomorrow can take the exam directly.”

“Papa told your Mama first Sister. Most also obtained because of the same Gilang. But if later still asked to come home tomorrow, you persuaded Mama herself yes Kak.” Papa Yudith said before passing from before Ara and Gilang.
