At the Crossroads of Love

81. ASEBA (Danger Smile Addition)

Ara ventured down to the second floor. He looks for Gatra to ask for the car keys, because he forgot to bring the bag that was placed in the back seat. Concerts in his stomach are getting crowded. Especially from the room Gatra row of street vendors across looks tempting.

Luckily Farel went up to the third floor, can all be helped find Gatra.

''Bang Farel, Ara wants to meet Mas Gatra where is it?'' Farel who was looking for something turned to Ara and just smiled.

'' Yuk! He said he wanted Mas Gatra.'' Farel teased Ara, as she only kept quiet when Ara asked. Until Arapun is also silent maybe Farel is focusing on what is sought.

Arriving at the Gatra workspace on the second floor Bro, looking for bini lo nih?'' The whisper of Farel in Gatra.

Gatra turned his head and Ara appeared from behind Farel's back.

''Why Ra? bored, wait for work. Sorry huh? Mas have to finish this first only later we go home, hem.'' Gatra stroked the top of Ara's head. Gatra almost landed his kiss if Farel did not interrupt him.

''Ara just wanted to ask for the car keys.'' said Ara timidly.

Gatra frowned. ''Ara's bag missed in the back seat, Ara's wallet is in the bag.'' explained Ara.

Gatra reached into all his pants pockets there was only a wallet there. Gatra handed his wallet to Ara. Obviously Ara was shocked to receive Gatra's wallet.

''Ara needs to buy what?'' gatra asked shortly after Ara received his wallet.

''Did you ask for a car key? not Mas's wallet?'' ara protest

''The car keys are on top of Rara. Want jajan?'' Ara nodded her head ''Wear the money in that wallet alone, what did Mas ever say? husband's money is money.....''

''The wife, and Mas Gatra the husband of Ara.'' Samber Ara quickly.Gatra curled his lips.

''Ara buy snacks across, huh, Mas?''

''Heem be careful when it's done.'' Gatra's message before Ara darted out.

''Waduh very sweet this is our new Mr. Su.'' said senior employee Gatra.

''Pak Su paan?'' asked Farel kepo, because Gatra who remained relaxed did not respond to chirps for him.

''Uncle Bang Farel's husband.'' said another employee

''Oh.'' Farel ber Oh ria's. ''Will soon be called Pak husband dong?'' lang Farel with pride.

''Still a long Bang. New also want a proposal, kayak Bang Gatra dong without a typhoon without a direct storm can wife.where is still bud again.'' quipped other male employees

''Development of bud times.'' connect other employees.

''Lo whine at.''sewot Farel.

''But why is there anything less?'' said the senior employee

''Yes, why don't we eat well?'' provocation of other employees.

''Yes, big boss.... ahem!'' like connected Gatra employees throw insinuations at Gatra. Until the owner bergeming.

''Who wants to eat well?'' gatra's voice stopped the rafters. ''Wait three more days.'' Gatra said again as he passed away leaving all.

''Three more days are my application, Kamvret!'' farel said he did not accept it.

''Emang!'' shouted Gatra as his steps were getting further away. ''Don't forget you invite them all, on wanting to eat their good.''

Not that Gatra didn't want to have another reception or wedding procession, of course he did. His unusual wedding especially to his bride, Gatra did not want to add burden to his Rara. Having been able to accept her sudden marriage was a good move, perhaps later after all Ara's grief was over and could already give her whole heart to Gatra. Because Rara must also have a dream wedding, whatever it is later as much as possible Gatra will make it happen. Although not for now.

Meanwhile, Ara who came out of the shophouse through the road that she had entered with Gatra, was intercepted by the security guard who was holding a grandmother who seemed to want to enter the shophouse.

''Aih.... Do not know the descent, why the angel can be here he.''

The security guard who was questioned was amazed to see Ara. ''Sis! pity her grandmother, it hurt her hand.'' said Ara furious because the security guard gripped firmly the hand of grandmother and the grandmother thrashed to be released.

The security guard called by Mr. Ara immediately released the grandmother's hand.

''Oh sweet lady don't call me sir. I'm young, uh Miss why did you get out of there? when did Miss come in?'' consecutive questions from the security guard because when Ara entered with Gatra he was no longer in place.

''This is Miss, Grandma speaking I don't know. It seems like Grandma is going to go inside.'' The security guard again.

Obviously not connect the grandmother speaking in Javanese and the security guard talking with eastern Indonesian dialect.

''May I ki bur arep golek i pugutuku, jare kerjo ning kene. No enteni jare arep bali kok ra teko-teko, so lueh I ki.'' (Dear child I want to find my granddaughter she said works here. No wait he said he would not come home, until I was hungry.)

''Way e namine sinten Mbah?'' (what is the name of his grandson Mbah?)

''Juremi, cah ayu.''

'' Mr...eh.... Bang sat_pam.''

''Markus Miss. Brother Markus. That.''

''Yes, Brother Markus, this grandmother wants to find her grandson, she said she works here, her name is Juremi. Can you please get it? poor grandma's hungry. From morning left his grandson had not eaten.'' after Ara explained the intention of the arrival of the security guard grandmother named Mark was so sorry for the grandmother.

''A'. pity grandma. It's brazen granddaughter, but long if I have to ask inside first. How's it?" the security guard Markus seems hesitant to leave again his post.Last left there is already Ara who when the entry , suddenly it has come out.

"Let me take my grandmother to eat across first, then come here again" explained Ara with a sweet smile.

"A...Ase-ba.'' Markus was fascinated with Ara's sweet smile.

''Help!''

''A'. That....Adek Smile of Danger.'' said Mark timidly. Ara shook her head and smiled hearing Mark's flutter. '' Adek smile is not just a green balloon that erupted, but five balloons erupted all.''

Ara brought grandma along to eat, because the concert keroncong on her stomach was not conducive.

After almost an hour Ara returned to where Maskus was based with grandmother with a full stomach. Not to forget Ara also wrapped food for Mark who was willing to help the grandmother to find her granddaughter.

''Sorry Miss, Brother Markus did not find an employee here named Juremi.''s sorry Markus who could not help.

The disappointed look on Ara's pretty face was so noticeable. ''Keep how this Brother Mark, his Grandmother.'' Went Ara to Maskus

''Ra.'' Gatra's voice from the entrance to the Gatra office made not only Ara turn but also Markus and the grandmother.

''Well, I'll have my birthday.''
