After being a legitimate member of OSIS, my daily life is increasingly mixed with busyness. Whether it's schoolwork or organizational tasks, everything feels like it takes a quick time to do it. Like today, I didn't go home right after the bell rang after school. There is still an OSIS meeting agenda to discuss the concept of the event on the upcoming RA Kartini Day.
Finished keeping the backpack in the membership seat, I with Riska, Princess, and Eren stepped out of the room again. Intend to fill the stomach for a while, before the concept meeting began. We used to be given fifteen to buy and eat food outside the meeting room.
A few minutes stepping down the hall, from a distance I caught the figure of Kak Bagas walking closer with his aide. His walking style seemed to be sticky with a glance. Especially if you don't keep both hands in your pants pocket?
"Darling," I said as soon as the distance had eroded closer. Spontaneous is not just me pulling over. Eren, Riska, Putri, and Kak Vishnu also followed to pay attention to us.
"Where are you going?" his tananya who immediately pulled out one hand and scrambled my head shoots slowly.
"Fowl. Tipped?" Just offer because usually so. I'm the one shopping and Bagas' brother used to hand over the money while waiting for orders.
"Hm, not before." Head shakes. Very far from the estimate.
"Lho, tumbens." I'm obviously astonished.
"Frank him out. A day's snacks can't go past five thousand." New information from Wisnu.
"What would you buy? Why suddenly save?"
Kak Bagas sparing means to shop. He never asked for more money. If he wants something, he always collects some pocket money until the nominal reaches the price of something. However, as short as I know Bagas never rationed himself too small. Five thousand, you know, this. Usually also if saving his allowance to fifteen thousand per day. It was a little strange that he was suddenly all-out irrit.
"Pengin, aja. Brother feels too wasteful lately."
Wasteful? Where is it, anyway?
"Yes, already. You guys if you want to snack, snack first, just. Brother same Vishnu to the headquarters first, yes."
I nodded while not stopping to look at his past back.
"Ma." Rikas suddenly shifted my world. "Five thousand is enough to eat what?" ask after I start the step again.
"Cimol, Cilok, Cireng," chirped the Princess with a sinless face.
My eyes blinked. A little heavy on heart and mind when it comes to Kak Bagas' habits. Why, anyway, should skimp that? Not necessarily her stomach was full. I mean, why skimp, but tummy rumbling?
"Can't be abandoned." I murmured, but quite caught the ears of the three friends.
"I mean, Ra?" Eren was the first to express confusion.
"Can't be let go" I said more clearly. "I'm going to buy some rice, all right. Let it be eaten together Bagas."
***
Other than the three friends. When they buy snacks as a stomach booster, I prefer to order rice padang so that it can be eaten with Kak Bagas.
One by one the friends who ordered snacks returned to the table where I was waiting. My preferred menu is still in the packing queue.
"It's time to go home, but it's still in line, yes," Eren commented that there is a point.
"They want to collect exkul times," replied Riska. As always, he was always logical in his speech.
"Ra, Brother Bagas save kayak so because of your birthday times." Eren suddenly talked about my worries again.
"No, ah!" I seriously refute. "I'm still a long time old. Two more months."
"Yes, it could be because it's two months away from now. Want to make a fancy surprise." The princess is on the topic of conversation.
"What is it, huh?" I was thinking that way. My breath is heavy. Afraid and too worried because of the thoughts that the Princess uttered. Duh, no, deh! Don't give me a birthday, he's cut himself like that. I don't like. More than not.
As soon as I saw the deserted rice jongko, I rushed to buy a pack of rice and two types of side dishes because I wanted to eat both. After paying twenty thousand, I immediately invited the three friends to return to the meeting room. Feels like being chased by time, afraid not to rush also eat this rice.
I gushed in relief when I saw the condition of the meeting room in the doorway. Still looks lonely, monitored members and seniors are still snacking in the canteen. Brother Bagas who sat at the main table realized my presence. Hurriedly my hand waved, gesturing for her to come out for a while. The rule is that you should not bring food to the meeting room.
"Why, Deck?" ask after arriving in front of me.
"It." A packet of rice paddies I wiggled before him. "Help me, yuk."
"Well, my brother is not hungry" he said, refusing.
Unfortunately, Dara is not the name if you can not force her lover to eat. Instead of forcing her into a fight, I prefer to persuade her in an unnatural way.
"So ... don't want to help finish Dara's food, huh?" I put on a pouting face. "Well, what if Dara is fat? Where's her boyfriend handsome again. Auto snatched up hot girls."
"Kok, so think, then? You're fat and you're still pretty, too." He immediately grabbed both of my arms tightly. "So not hungry, seriously. If you want to eat, come on, brother look."
"Yes, no, deh. I threw it out, all right." I brushed aside the hand and hurried to walk towards the trash.
"Yes God. Don't waste food, honey." Bagas followed and held my hand that was about to put rice in the trash.
"Have known can not finish everything, why buy two portions of everything?"
My tongue clucked loudly at the light question in that mouth. "Not insensitive, huh?"
"Huh?" He looks confused.
"Why buy two servings? Yes, it was obviously intentional, Iah! I bought it so I could eat together Ayang. The driver is bribed with Ayang."
Silence because Bagas even gawked.
"Don't understand either?" I became inflamed. Things want to eat a plate alone should be up to the agility fight.
He chuckled after successfully provoking my irritation. Without asking for permission, his hand then pinched next to my cheek. "Gemes" said Bagas. "Yes, come on, come on. Brother help me finish the food."
"Well, so. From now on, cake," my dumel while walking away from the garbage can.
I took a sitting position on the floor. Not too close to the three friends, but not too far from the door of the room. Brother Bagas who deigns to eat a plate of both no less follows in my footsteps. He sat down with lesehan. Without reasoning the mat, he sat confidently before me. A packet of rice paddies containing two servings of rice was immediately opened in the middle of us.
"Which brother, huh? Rendang or chicken balado?" ask after seeing two different types of side dishes.
"Rendang, aja. Brother, right, likes rendang."
"okay."
He said okay, but his spoon cut a little of my balado chicken. My gaze was like an eagle towards his innocent face without feeling sinful. Prepare to seize my side dish rations with all the agility of the soul. I said ration rendang, right? Why did he cut chicken?
"Now!"
Duck spoon containing a little piece of chicken balado was extended Kak Bagas to the front of my mouth. His big smile obviously embarrassed me. Already thinking negatively, when clearly he wanted to give me the first feed.
"Eh, even dumb. He said he wanted to bribe his brother."
"Eh, when did I say that?"
Anyway, I said that, huh?
"God. Adek said he wanted to be bribed. That's a big brother, isn't it?" He started staring hard.
"Ah, right. I said so, yeah." I chuckled, replying to his behavior in front of the trash can earlier. "Sori, forgot." Do not want Bagas to pursed his lips, I hurriedly devoured the contents of his spoon.
"Sister," called me on the sidelines.
"Hm?" Bagas did not look at my face because of the focus on cutting the rendang meat.
"Nobody wants to buy what, anyway, to save everything?"
He smiled wryly. "Still in mind, aja. Don't buy anything, honey. Brother's just a life-saving prank."
"Related?" I've been looking at it full of sight.
"Yes, honey," he said, trying to convince.
"So it's not because of my birthday, is it?"
"Huh? How, who could GR be?"
He asked back and went crazy because the question managed to slap my pride. I immediately throw my face, do not want to see the face of Kak Bagas because of the universal shame.
"Gini ... gini .. I mean, why do you think so? His birthday, right, is still a long time. Brother's frugal intention isn't because it's, really, serious." He tried to explain while stroking my hand full of tenderness.
"I'm not GR, you know." Intentionally correcting because it does not want to be said so.
"Yes, I said it wrong. Brother wrong. Sorry, yes" he said as usual, always giving up.
"B-but seriously, isn't it because of Dara?" I want to be more convinced.
"Seriously. Jamin, not because of you." Brother Bagas smiled gently.
"Hey, Boss!"
The loud call distracted our attention. This warm chat until interrupted because Arfan was already ruffled waist in the doorway.
"Why?" Bagas asked with intonation that was no less harsh.
"When do you want to be so? The meal hour is past. It's meeting time."
