Aunt Melinda

Sulking

Tonight, Erli is fussy and does not want to be invited back home. Linda had persuaded him, so that his son would be invited home.

Because Ferry couldn't pick her up yet, which is why, Linda went straight to her mother's house, to pick up her son.

"Darling, Papa will go home straight away! Papa is tired too."

"Oh yes, he said papa had souvenirs for Erli. There's chocolate and sweet candied fruit."

Linda is still trying to seduce her son. So as not to fuss and want to come home with him. No need to wait for her dad to come home to pick her up.

"Wouldn't. Erli mau Papa's. Huhuhuhoo..."

Erli started crying. While Linda, also feel tired because all day long work.

"Hmmm..."

Linda could only waste a long breath. He couldn't possibly scold his son, just like if he was angry at the factory.

Her husband called her. Let me know if he's gonna be home some night. So, Linda was asked to pick up Erli herself. He was asked to go home and not stay at his mother's house.

"Later on the way home, buy some yuk meatballs!" persuade Linda, who no longer knows how to get Erli to comply.

"Father Ma. Where's papa?"

Erli didn't want to know. He kept asking about the whereabouts of his father. Who usually comes first before his mother comes home.

"Papa has a job, dear. Later go home, maybe papa has also come home."

"We're going home now yuk!"

Erli started to shut up. But not at the request of his mother.

"Papa's coming home, right?" ask Erli mamakensup.

"Yes Dear. Papa must have come home" Linda replied reassuringly to her son.

"But buy burgers. Erli wants credit!"

"Yes Ma yes... The Kredipeti in the Spongebob cartoon is ma!" Erli sulked, saying his wish, for a hamburger snack later on the street.

Because now, there are a lot of fast food vendors, on the roadside. Not only cakes that come from several regions in the country. But also from abroad.

Like kebabs, and hamburgers. Chinese, Japanese and Korean food. The general public is no longer foreign to these foods.

"Oh... Krabby Patty," Linda said, correcting the spelling of her son who misnamed the food typical in bikinibottom, Spongebob's home region.

Cartoons that have stolen the attention of many children of Erli's age.

Krabby Patty is a hamburger. It comes from the word Ham.

But actually, the name comes from the city of Hamburg in Germany, where this food originated. From this second largest city in Germany, many of its residents emigrated to America and spread burger making there.

That is why, hamburgers become better known as food that comes from America. Not from their country of origin.

And since the Spongebob Squarepants flim cartoon, young children are more familiar with hamburgers called Krabby Patties.

"Yes-yes. We'll get Erli a Krabby Patty." Linda agreed to her son's request. He was influenced by his favorite Spongebob Squarepants cartoon.

In fact, he usually prefers sweet martabak. If you want to get a snack.

"Ye... buy a Krabby Patty!"

Erli shouted happily. He also jumped up and down in excitement, after Linda agreed to his request earlier.

Linda's mother, just smile. Saw his sulking grandson earlier.

While her father Linda, reminded Linda, so as not to spoil her grandson too much. Although she actually knew, that was not the intention of Linda's attitude towards Erli.

"Lins. You know, you can fulfill Erli's request. But, sometimes do not be obeyed. It could even be a continuation, so spoiled later."

"Yes Sir. It's because he's just being fussy" Linda said, but what her father said.

"Hmmm... This gentleman. Let it go, sir! Erli was a kid too. Usually children like to sulk," said Linda's mother, defending her grandson.

Linda was so unwell, because Erli who was sulking earlier, caused her parents to become at odds now.

"Sir Linda, Danang didn't come home?" asked Danang, from the direction of his own room.

"Not to Nang. Not so late" said Linda, who was preparing to go home with her son.

"Yes already. Be careful, Ma'am!"

"Yes. Uh, it's Nang. You got a work call maybe next week huh!"

Linda told her sister, who had been busy in the room.

Cleks!

Danang's room door opened. She goes out to meet Linda, before her sister goes home by herself.

"So, is there any certainty in Ma'am's acceptance?" ask Danang unsure.

Linda nodded for sure.

"Thank God. Danang almost applied for a job at the factory that was just built!" said Danang, with gratitude, because there is certainty of his job application yesterday.

"That's even longer Nang called his work. Kan is still in the development stage" said Linda, giving an explanation to her sister.

"Tuh, say ngeyel anyway!"

His mother followed Linda's words. Because yesterday, the job application problem also made her and her husband at odds.

But now, his father was silent. No longer speak his wife's words.

"Yes, Linda came back first. Mumpung Erli wants to be invited to go home." Linda said goodbye to both her parents and Danang.

He greeted the three, and also taught the child, to shake hands. As a sign that the two of them will be home soon.

*****

Ferry arrived home almost midnight. As soon as the engine stopped, he knocked on the door.

Tok tok!

Tok tok!

"Sir. Deck Linda!"

Shortly after, the sound of the door lock playing was heard from inside the house.

Clek, check, Clek!

Door opens. Linda appeared from inside the house, welcoming the arrival of her husband.

"Erli's asleep?" tanya Ferry, when her hand was welcomed by Linda to be kissed.

"Yes Mas. It was so fussy. Nanyain Mas continue!"

Linda complained about her son's mischief, since he was still at his mother's house. With all Erli's requests as well, so he wants to be brought home.

"This is a gift for Erli. But don't love him all. Could have hurt her teeth!"

Linda received the paper bag that her husband had brought her.

"Well, this must be Erli likes Mas!"

"Yes. But don't give it to him all Deck. Be a little. You can eat that too. Hehe..."

Linda smiled happily, hearing the words spoken by her husband.

Ferry and Linda know, if chocolate is beneficial for the body. In chocolate, there is a stimulant similar to caffeine. These stimulants can increase the body's energy and make it more powerful.

Many women, even many who glorify chocolate. Because it can improve the mood so much better.

But of course it should not be excessive. Because in addition to useful, the adverse effects caused by chocolate must also be considered.

The caffeine content in chocolate is also not good for children. Especially if consumed in excess. Too much kefein can cause headaches, stomach pain, difficulty concentrating, difficulty sleeping, rising blood pressure, and a faster heart rate.

That is why, children should be considered, when they consume foods made from chocolate.

Actually, this impact is not only for children. Because some adults, will also experience the same thing as that too, if you consume chocolate in excess.
