BAYU: Where the Wind Brings Misses

Morning In The City

The dark slowly faded. The sky slowly turned bluish. The coldness of the air slowly disappeared. And Bayu slowly woke up from reality.

"Here's Miss De,?" Bayu asked while putting the groceries in the obrok bag on the right.

"Yes Yu." Ma'am De replied while putting groceries also in the left obrok bag.

"Where else is Miss De.?" Ask Bayu again, while turning on the engine motor.

"Brummmmm"

Engine sound motor matik.

"We're Yu home, but we'll stop by the rice trade in front of the alley for a bit." Said Mrs De.

Bayu riding a motorbike and Bu De riding in a groggy bag. Then Bayu pulled the gas lever and drove with Bu De's direction again.

The atmosphere of the urban road began to bustle. It doesn't seem like 6 in the morning.

People go to work with busy. And the schoolboy departed with his spirit.

A few minutes later.

Bayu stopped at the rice trade front alley.

"What do you want Yu.?" Ask Bu De while getting off the bike.

"What a Miss De." Bayu answered.

"Nasi packs four Mbak Sum, white rice two yellow rice two." Ms. De said to the seller.

"Dianter who is Bu Nur,? I'm not a motorcycle taxi guy here.?" Ask Mbak Sum the rice seller while preparing the order Bu De.

"Just like, Mr. Arip's bang. Just came yesterday from the village." Said Bu Nur.

"Owalahhh, sorry Mom. Don't think the motorcycleman." Mbak Sum said blushed in embarrassment.

Bayu who heard the conversation could only smile on the bike.

Then Ms. De paid for the rice. And back on the bike to go home.

The alley still looks lonely, even the grocery store near the house is still closed.

Bayu got home and parked his motorbike on the empty land next to the house.

It appears that Mr. De is slaughtering chickens.

"Woooo same Bayu to Dek.?" Ask Mr. De to his wife.

"Yes Mas, ask for help from Bayu, let me know the market as well." Said Mrs De.

"I'm sorry Bayu, nerepotin." Mr. De said while washing his hands.

"No bother Mr. De, tomorrow let Bayu aja who nganter Bu De to the market again." Say Bayu by carrying groceries into the house through the side door.

"Yawes let's have breakfast first." Ms. De said to enter the house to prepare breakfast.

"Uswah Uswah's....." Ms. De called her son.

"Yes Buk." The sound of Uswah in the bathroom.

"But the bath, son, that's breakfast." Said Mrs De.

Ms. De then prepares the ingredients for the sale later tonight.

"Breakfast first, Bayu" said Mrs De.

Then Bayu opened one of the rice packets on the table and ate it while looking at the TV.

Looked out of the bathroom and into the room.

Not how long.

Uswan exited the room wearing a uniform. Then the girl in the Junior High uniform picked up her breakfast package and ate in the living room.

Teihat Mr. De is cleaning chicken feathers outside the house. While Bu De is seen preparing seasoning in the kitchen.

"It turns out that Mr. De and Mr. De were busy from morning." Saying Bayu in the heart.

In the mind of Bayu, because Pak De merchandise is only open during the afternoon until evening, the morning may be used to relax.

Bayu's mind is wrong. It turns out that preparing the trade also requires a process.

"Uswahhhh Uswahhhh..." The voice of friends Uswah calling from the front of the house.

"Wait....." The voice of Uswah in the living room.

Uswah then kedapur, put the dirty dishes, wash his hands then kiss the hands of his Mother and Father, do not forget also Mr. De gave pocket money to Uswah.

Uswah took the bag from his room.

"Uswah. Assalamualaikum" said Uswah while riding his bicycle beside the house to school with his friends.

"Getishalight." Ma'am De, Mr. De and Bayu.

Bayu finished eating, after washing his dirty dishes Bayu approached Mr. De.

"Let Bayu aja Mr. De who wants his chicken feathers." Say Bayu.

"Ooo yawes, please Yu." Said Mr. De.

Bayu helped Mr. De and Mr. De in the morning. Starting from plucking chicken feathers, peeling and blending spices, also washing rice and others.

It seems that Bu De also does not hesitate to teach Bayu to process seasoning for trading Pak De later tonight.

Mr. De's trade is famous for selling and delicious. Myths often say, if the selling trade must have a seller in the form of astral beings.

But in Bayu's observation, Pak De's merchandise is delicious and in demand not because of mystical things, but because the materials used by Mr. De are of high quality.

Even Mr. De slaughtered his own chicken so that the savory taste of kuah kaldunya really felt.

The sun is starting to rise. Cold air turns to heat to make Bayu rage.

Bu De finished preparing the condiments and broth.

"Mandi first is Bayu." Said Mrs De.

"This is done cooking, stay later in the afternoon continue to cook dry noodles again and make additional ingredients." Imbuh Bu De's.

"Yes, Mrs De, help Bayu again." Say Bayu.

"Udah no need, you just rest later in the day, make help Mr. De sell later tonight." Said Mrs De.

"Ooo yasudah, Bayu excuse me first Ms De" Bayu said.

When Bayu was going to take a shower, he remembered not having any equipment for bathing including a toothbrush.

Bayu took the money in the bag and immediately went to the grocery store near the house.

"Where are you going." Said Mr. De who was relaxing in front of the house.

"You go to Mr. De's shop, get some toiletries." Say Bayu.

Then, Bayu sampi in the stall.

"Excuse me, buy." said Bayu.

"Yes... a minute." Answer the voice of the woman from inside the house.

"Buy what.?" The seller is out.

"Buy the same toothbrush soap and shampoo that saset also." Say Bayu.

The seller takes the Bayu order and puts it in a scraping bag.

"It's a mas, 15 grand." Seller says.

Bayu gave him the fitting money.

"Make it Mommy." Say Bayu.

"Yes, same thing." The seller replied.

Bayu then passed. But the seller was still a little surprised, maybe he had just first seen Bayu shopping in his stall.

"Udah Yu.?" Ask Mr. De still relaxing in front of the house.

"Udah Mr De." Sayu then entered the house.

Bayu then immediately take a shower. In the House of Mr. De the bathroom has used a faucet unlike in the house Bayu who still draw a well.

Finish bath Bayu tambahan in the room. For a moment he thought.

"The first time I wake up in the morning without remembering Laras." Saying Bayu in the heart.

"Will I forget Laras.?" Imbuh Bayu in the heart.

On the one hand Bayu is happy because he can forget Laras, but on the other hand Bayu is still not willing to lose his girl first.

And Bayu can now only hate to love Laras.
