Boyfriend Or Friend

Boyfriend Or Friend
Chapter 160



“Lho, said mama ngajak no one, why is there Aunt Shanti same Dania? Ah mama why the hell lie to me? Why meet all of them? I ‘kan already said enough of both of us. I'll make sure mom goes to the cafe to have a coffee with her mom to the mall. But I've ordered not to invite mama's friend whoever it is, eh instead taughtakin,”


Vindra was upset with her mother who actually invited Dania and her mother to eat together at a restaurant in the mall.


“Eh Mama did not step. They buy their monthly needs. So mama ‘kan update status tuh again in the car. Asked where Shanti is going, yes mama answered to this mall and he said also again in the same place buy monthly needs, so do not turn on mama dong!”


Vindra clucked and inwardly did not believe at all what her mother had said.


Vindra was reluctant to step further into the restaurant after seeing the faces of the two people.


“Let's discuss matchmaking of all kinds. I'm males, mending go home,”


Vindra will turn around but her hand is immediately blocked by the mother who also glared sharply at him.


“Do not mess with you! Mama is hungry, and wants to eat, who wants to discuss matchmaking everything,”


“But I don't want ah, mama nih rempong really. All the same meet Aunt Shanti, ngajak Dania. The end is getting more intense my soul mate with Dania. Though mama herself said I was single first so that I could enjoy my own time and the same mama papa, uh this—“


“No! Who the hell would want to talk about that? You are not very clear. Come on, we're in,”


“Ma—“


Rina held her child's arm, and in that instant Vindra knew there was no longer a chance for her to move away. He was forced into the restaurant.


“Tau it is not necessary to go to the mall just so as not to be with them,”


“You do not sincerely temenin mama to the mall, meaning it does not get a reward,”


“Ya aja aja, abisnya mama kayak gini anyway, I already said—“


“Lah mama ‘kan have said. My mom is not at all. Not coincidentally together in the mall, continue not expecting to meet at this restaurant,”


Vindra sat next to her mother, they were both facing off against Shanti and Dania who were smilingly greeting.


“Seneng really, I guess I haven't seen kayak gini in a long time,”


“Vindra tumben temenin his mother to the mall,” said Dania told Vindra that He knows even more often gather with friends than parents.


“Ya why? Can't you?”


“Typically collect same Dino, Jerry, Zam,”


“But ‘kan no harm was I sent nyemenokap me to the mall. The three of them also have activities each time,”


Vibdra gets a warning from his mother. For Rina, Vindra's answer to Dania's question was not right. He heard her, but Dania asked nicely and even while chuckling as well. If you do not like this meeting, do not show it directly to them.


“Oh so, eh Vin later you graduation party wear what clothes?”


“The rules are ‘kan formal yes means wear formal clothes,”


“No, I mean the color is that. I also know that the rules have to be formal,”


“Not yet, I'm not working,”


“Hah? ‘And how many weeks are left. Why aren't you still looking? You know when the show is ‘kan?”


“Yes know,”


“Yes no way know, because sometimes do not enter after the test,”


“Gue is still diligent, Dan. Just indiscriminate by the way. Lo don't say that in front of my nyokap, ntar until my house is beaten,”


Dania chuckles at Vindra's words, as do Rina and Shanti. Vindra did not admit that he did not come to school every day. Because he was lazy to go to school to discuss the last exam yesterday, talk about the concept of graduation, and plans for a walk afterwards. Finally he and his three friends often different directions, when other friends go to school every day, he and his three friends even to the cafe, to the restaurant, to the house of one of them. The point is not to go to school.


“Terus you agree not the same plan of traveling to Jogja?”


“Agreement-agree aja,”


“You know ‘kan want to Jogja?”


“At first to Bandung, continue to the top of Bogor, continue to where else? Ah you know my dizziness, it will be to Jogja?”


“Iya has really been to Jogja, uh we have one bus yes,”


Vindra looked at Dania with a frowning forehead. He can't arrange a bus with anyone. Suddenly Dania spoke so.


“Ne-know,”


“Hopefully, I wish the bus could be the same person who is exciting,”


“Kok really deket streets? Not going abroad? That time there was no discourse abroad huh?” Rina's question was answered with a slit by Dania.


“Neventful, Aunt. Children want to be local, after all they say in Jogja is no less exciting than abroad,”


“Oalah, yes-yes right. It's just so exciting there. Aunty several times to there the atmosphere is very different in this capital. It's delicious, guaranteed to not want to come back here again,”


“While the children of rich people, why not go outside?”


“Yes where do I know, Vindra. Children just want domestic tourism, do not want to get outside, do you want to go outside? Yes already take a walk alone,” joked Dania.


“No, I will travel abroad if I already have a partner. Calculate honeymoon it ‘kan,”


“Where are you, Vin?”


Vindra suddenly moved and it immediately made her mother ask confused.


“I'm going to the bathroom for a minute,”


Lina nodded letting her son rush to the bathroom. Unbeknownst to him, Vindra wants to escape from the restaurant. He decided to wait for his mother in the car. He wanted to go home, but He did not leave his mother who would go home alone if He came home first.


“No chatting, mendingan I sit, listening to songs in the car rather than chatting unclear. Fear later the ends even want to chat matchmaking, ogah I,”


*****


“Vindra where are you? How come he's not going back and forth? Did he go to the bathroom? Or ilang? Lah people he is not a child anymore,” muttered Rina while circulating his gaze.


Until the food ordered arrived, Vindra had not returned from the bathroom so he was confused where the second child was. Because it was only permission to go to the bathroom, but it could be this long until fifteen minutes did not come.


“This food is in sight but Vindra has not yet come, Rin. Does he know the bathroom? Don't get me wrong again,”


“Try me to call first yes, you guys just eat it,”


Rina did not want that until her friends and children waited for Vindra's arrival until postponed to eat, she would take care of her child.


He quickly dialed Vindra's number. Once unanswered, twice unanswered. Rina's molar teeth started to clash with each other.


“Neither picked up my phone. Where the hell is this kid?! How not very clear suddenly say, yes time he did not bring a mobile phone?” Inner Rina who started to get anxious as well as upset.


“Where, Rin? Can't be contacted?”


“Yes, try me to chat first. Fears he's not clear, forget his mother is still here,”


Rina immediately contacted her son via a short message to ask him where he was.


vindra, where are you? Come back here, Mama wait!-


********


Vindra enjoys her lonely time in the car. His mouth follows a string of lyrics from a song that is playing a playlist in his car. The car was parked safely in the parking area so he did not feel disturbed in the slightest.


I can make you


Fall in love with me


Even if you don't love me


Vindra got carried away in a song titled - The heart problem - which was performed by one of his favorite bands Dewa 19


It felt like he hadn't been singing for a long time with a feeling that was completely immersed in the lyrics of the song. His eyes closed, his hands would occasionally pat the steering wheel of the car. The quiet atmosphere in the car makes him even more able to enjoy the song.


“Anjay, really good. Replace,”


After the song ended, he chose another song. Anyway for now he will be a private concert, the one who sings is himself and who hears also just himself. Instead of sitting next to her mother and chatting with Shanti and Dania, Vindra is more comfortable in the car while singing to her heart's content. Although his stomach was hungry and his mother had ordered food for him and most likely food was on the table, Vindra did not care. He thought he could eat when he got home.


Vindra avoided meeting with Ardina, Dania, or other acquaintances of her mother. Because she did not want her divorce discussed, Zeline discussed, her marriage situation was discussed, and arranged marriages discussed.


Let me paint twilight


Carve your name there


Heard you tell a story


Crying laughing


This time Vindra sang a song - Painting the twilight-with a spirit that has not faded even this time it is getting smoldering because it has spent one song before.


*****


“Jeez, this is really a child yes, ask to be scolded. Watch out, until the house hits you, Vindra! I made my mom ashamed of you. Permission to the bathroom does not know it even say no back and forth to the table,”


Lina finally came out of the restaurant alone without her child. Different from before who entered the restaurant with Vindra. Until he finished eating with Shanti and Dania, Vindra did not return to the restaurant so he concluded that Vindra had really run away. But he ran away somewhere. Whether going home, or just wandering elsewhere.


Shanti and Dania had gone home first. They take Rina home together but Rina refuses. He wanted to find the whereabouts of his son who might still be nearby. In the car park, he did not find Vindra's car. But he knew there was one more parking area and it was a mix. It can be for motorbikes and cars. With a quick step He went there, because his patience was exhausted and wanted to immediately find Vindra, He was not focused and eventually accidentally hit by a car that would enter the parking area.


Rina fell down and the paper bag containing her groceries fell as well. He grimaced in pain. And soon he was approached by a young girl, followed by the driver of the car who lost quickly with Zeline to approach Rina.


Yes, Zeline who accidentally saw a woman fall, did not get into her car, and decided to approach the woman who turned out to be the mother of her lover.


Zeline and Lina were both shocked when they realized each other. Zeline smiled even though she was awkward.


“Can you wake up, Auntie?”


Rina was flabbergasted for a moment. He had not expected Zeline's response so quickly to help him. And at first Zeline didn't know who she was helping. So Zeline's intention was really to help, indiscriminately who he was helping.


Zeline assisted the driver of the car to help Rina to stand up. Lina swallowed her saliva with great difficulty. For some reason, he seemed slapped with the fact that Zeline was good, but only realized now.


“Tante all right?”


“Iya, thanks,”


“Sama-sama, Aunt. This is the shopping,” said Zeline while handing a paper bag of three pieces into the hands of Rina.


“Mother, need I take it to the hospital?” Ask the driver. He answered by shaking his head. Rina's feelings were still uncertain so she still had a hard time making a sound. The incident was too sudden and the next moment was never expected. After Zeline's breakup with Vindra, she has never met Zeline, and is now reunited with another moment where she is in pain and needs help.


“Sorry yes, Mom. I just hit the horn like I didn't realize, Mom hurried,”


“It's okay, I'm wrong,”


“Mother really don't need to go to the hospital?”


“Nease, thanks yes,”


“Good, Mom. Then excuse me, once again apologize yes, Mom,”


The male driver got back in the car, while Zeline was still standing next to Rina.


“Tante where are you going? Just alone? Are his feet okay? Need me to drop off?”


“Tante want to find Vindra. Aunty sure he's still around here, kept aunt want to find in the parking lot for cars and motorcycles, uh can even be calamity. But thank you for helping auntie,”


“Oh if that's what I helped find Vindra? Aunty tried to connect him?”


“Udah, dicuekin continues. She was just like a aunt in a restaurant. Keep going to the bathroom, uh not back and forth. But aunty sure he is still here only I am also confused where he is, this aunt again wants to run in this parking lot, because in the special car park he does not exist,”


“Ya Aunty sat down first in the security post, let me find it,”


“No need, aunt can find her own really,” Rina reluctantly helped by Zeline for the second time. He felt able to find the whereabouts of his son. He doesn't feel good about Zeline any more.


“But Aunt ‘kan new abis fall, better sit down, let me take to the post,”


Near the large parking area, there is a security post, Zeline asks Rina to sit in the post and she will look for Vindra.


This time, Rina refused. He followed Zeline's advice to sit down and rest after being shocked and sickened by a car crash but luckily he just fell, there were no severe injuries.


Rina looked at Zeline's back who had moved away from her after making sure she was sitting comfortably in a chair in front of the security post. Zeline began her search.


“Never change, Zeline remains a good boy,”


*****


Zeline breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Vindra's car plate. He still remembers the license plate of his ex-girlfriend. He was relieved to find Vindra who did not know that his mother had just been hit by a car.


Zeline knocked on Vindra's car window several times. Not long after, Vindra lowered the window of his car.


Vindra looked at Zeline with a frowning forehead. He was confused when Zeline suddenly came and knocked on the car window while looking at him with a flat face without expression.


“You can't connect with your mama?”


“Gue from an impromptu concert in the car, why?”


“Pantes just do not see a mobile phone, or do not intentionally want to answer your mother's phone? That's your mama just got hit by a car, you know? No ‘kan? So if again the path of the parents yes dampinginah lah to go home, do not even suddenly go. You price your mama,”


Vindra instantly widened her eyes when she heard Zeline's words. He opened the door and got out of the car. Zeline immediately invited him to walk over to Rina who was waiting at the security post.


“But my mama is fine, Zel?” Vindra asked with worry. Instantly he was made anxious and regretful for leaving his mother alone.


“Tell your mama he's fine not want to also be taken to the hospital, but ‘kan kasian him. Because you finally do not focus on the road continues to be accidentally hit by people,” said Zeline explained to her ex-lover.


“Ah thank goodness, but really nothing ‘ right? No one got hurt?”


“He said no,”


Rina could see Vindra and Zeline walking quickly towards her. He immediately gritted his teeth furiously when he saw the figure of the second child.


As soon as Vindra arrived nearby, Rina immediately pinched Vindra's waist until the child grimaced in pain.


“You are, not very polite! Why did you leave your mother? Huh huh? Mama-seeking did not meet eventually even hit by the same person. Where is your phone? Broken or accidentally cuekin phone and chat mama?”


Vindra can conclude that her mother was right as told by Zeline because she was immediately angry when He came.


“Sorry, Mom. I'm talking to Shanti's aunt Dania, so I'm going. Keep in the car I'm singing, I'm so sorry, Ma,”


“Can-can you even concert in the car. You know mama got hit?”


“Iya tau, Zeline already the same story me,” said Vindra while glancing at Zeline.


“Yes, Zeline who nolongin mom. Because you left your mom! If only you went home with mom not left mama maybe mama did not kayak just now. But yes, no, how do you want to do misfortune. Come now we go home,”


“I'm back, Assalamualaikum,”


“Eh, Zel! Hold on, I'd like to say thanks,”


Vindra held back the arm of his ex-wife who had just returned home. Zeline nodded her head.


“Iya equally, next time do not like that again yes,”


Vindra was frozen in place. Because Zeline is so attentive. He was not allowed to repeat his mistake again against the woman who had given birth to him.


“Thanks yes,”


“Iya, I go home first,”


“Zel, thanks,”


Rina also thanked Zeline who nodded with a faint smile. He replied “Sama-sama” after that stepped away leaving Rina and her son who looked towards Zeline who was getting farther and then they looked at each other.


“Mama really helped Zeline? How's the story?” Vindra asked her mother who was still sitting.


“He really. So mama fell down, she came straight to mama. And mama was also very surprised to see her who came mama and nanya mama okay or not, and she also took mama's groceries and helped mama to wake up,”


“Si the driver who crashed is not responsible?”


“She helped mom to wake up too. And she also took my mom to the hospital. But mama does not want because mama feels good,” said Tina told about the incident that happened earlier and the role of Zeline and the driver when he was hit.


“Zeline knows what she's helping you with is mama? From the beginning he knew? Or does he not know?”


“It seems he does not know anyway, reflex help mama. You see the mother she helped, she was shocked too, she was just as shocked. Are you confused about how she wants to help you? You guys have broken up,”


“Ya if it is basically good and will still be good even though there is no relationship, Ma,”


Vindra's words made Rina nod in agreement. Instantly the moments where He was still Zeline's in-laws revolved around his head.


“It turns out he is good yes, spontaneous nolongin mama without him knowing that what he helped was mama,”


“Iya emang he is good actually, just unfortunately even want to break up from me,”


“Fight if you can still” said Rina added the speech of the son.


Vindra smilingly rubbed her mother's shoulder. Then he took Rina home. Rina nodded, and Vindra immediately grabbed her mother's grocery bags.


“Mama can walk ‘kan?”


“Yes can do it, you think mama's feet why?”


“Yes I'm afraid my mom's legs hurt because of the incident,”


“No, let's go home,”


“But nobody hurts, Ma?”


“Neither, just the same waist back hurt because of falling, now the heck not hurt anymore,”


“Ah thank goodness that's it, Ma,”


Vindra immediately opened the car door for her mother and let her mother into the car. While he put his mother's groceries into the trunk of the car.


“We go straight home, Ma?” Vindra asked after sitting in the car.


“Iya go straight home, mama wants a break. Mama's still shocked actually,”


“Yes Allah, but mom really is okay ‘ right? Mama's still hanging huh?”


“That's it, mama's still in shock,”


“Do not want to go to the hospital?”


“No ah, want to rest at home,”


“Oh so, yes already if so we go home aja yes,”


“Yes, mama wants to insist on you yes don't kayak just now again. You are so insolent about your mother. Though we had a good conversation with Dania and her mother,”


“I'm not at home, Ma. As soon as I run away. I'm good in the car keep singing by myself,”


“Kayak freak singing alone in the car instead of the same mother even an impromptu concert in the car,”


“I know what the end will be like,”


“What's the end?”


“Must want to matein me with Dania again ‘kan?”


“Aaan anyway? Mama didn't say that,”


“Yes because there is no me. Try if there is me, surely the direction of the conversation with Aunt Shanti will be there,”


“Not to be so smart! You like to second-guess yourself,”


“Emang so usually ‘kan? Mama is still my soul mate with Dania, don't, Ma. I ‘kan do not like Dania. I assume he's my friend,”


******


"You're running fast when you're going to call those mothers, honey,"


"It turns out she was Vindra's mother, Ma,"


Arriving home, Reta discusses the moment when her son who has opened the car door is ready to go home, suddenly he ran away from the car to approach a woman who fell after accidentally touching the car.


"Huh? is that Vindra's mother? my mom didn't see clearly. Mama's in the car, and you're taking her away, too,"


"Well that's me ajakin to the security guard. So he found his second son. Her mother was left alone in her singing car. It's so weird for Vindra,"


"Kok left?"


"I don't understand either. Mama Vindra said, Vindra suddenly left and did not return. Well before Vindra's mom came home, she wanted Vindra's nyari but even got lost,"


"Astaghfirullah but it's okay, isn't it?mom saw Alhamdulillah could still walk,"


Zeline nodded her head. The one thing Zeline was grateful for was that Rina did not suffer any heavy injuries.


"That's fine, Ma. There were no serious injuries and he also did not want to be taken to the hospital,"


"Mama is glad you responded to help people. Even if you are the same Vindra already has nothing to do but you do not regret coming to help him earlier?"


Zeline smiled faintly and shook her head. He did not regret at all rushing quickly to his mother Vindra even though in the past when he was still a daughter-in-law, Mama Vindra considered him like an enemy.


"Not at all, Ma. I'm glad I could help him. And to be honest, I was upset with Vindra. He shouldn't have been like that. If you leave at the beginning with your mother, you should go home with her mother. Indeed, what happened earlier was the name of disaster but probably will not happen if Vindra did not leave his mother alone, so his mother would not have to admit him,"


"We don't know why Vindra suddenly left. What matters is that her mother is okay. That's enough to make our hearts relieved, right,"


******


"Why you?"


"I don't know, suddenly coughing,"


"Either if you drink real, just focus on drinking just don't nguping,"


"Well, I'll have ears. Papa said it in my deck, yes, I was horrified," said Vindra who did not want to be blamed.


"You're surprised after you know your hope, papa? actually papa wants you to be the same Zeline that survives, papa wants Zeline to be papa's daughter-in-law. You're shocked by that so cough huh?"


"I can already guess because papa tuh 'kan really dear Zeline. I just didn't think Dad would say that now. It's not possible anymore, Pa. Zeline is far from our family. She's not my girlfriend anymore,"


"Nothing is impossible in this world, Vindra,"


Vindra immediately swallowed her saliva with difficulty hearing the father's words. Vindra became awkward and she herself did not know why. After hearing the straightforward words of his father who said that in this world there is nothing impossible including the matter of Zeline who could return to be part of their family.


"Why are you so clumsy? are you there any new ones? hmm?"


Vindra put the glass on the table and the glass position was too on the edge of the table so that it almost fell, He immediately grabbed it in a panic. His guts were considered bumbling by Hadi, his papa.


"What does this mean, Pa?"


"Don't you mean there's a boyfriend? how clumsy we're talking about Zeline. Or are you misbehaving? I don't really understand,"


"Father, there's nothing" said Vindra, chuckling and shaking his head slowly.


"Do you have a boyfriend?"


"Not yet, if I'm sure I told papa,"


"Mama's not allowed yet! good girlfriend! later if it's really ready,"


Rina, who had been silent to the husband's words, finally spoke up to confirm that he forbade Vindra to re-establish a relationship in the near future.


"Hopefully that's like Zeline huh. Papa didn't expect more from Zeline anyway, because Zeline was enough for papa. And I think you feel that way too. His son is not neko-neko, knows very precious people, and also love the closest people. If you can't find more than Zeline, at least Zeline, Vin,"


"Duh, Pa. I haven't thought of that yet. But the hope was papa can I manifest ya. I wish I could get more from Zeline,"


"Don't be busy looking for a good woman, if you haven't improved yourself. Papa agrees with mom. And it's good that you haven't thought about finding a new partner either. So that you really reflect first and you look for your mistakes in the past so that later it will not be repeated again,"


Vindra was much advised by his father after the divorce. Because Hadi did not want his son to repeat the mistakes he had previously done.


Hadi hopes Vindra really reflects, knows the mistakes and then improves. Ready to welcome the future.


"Mama still has Dania's soul mate intentions with Vindra?"


Tina glanced at her husband then Genio alternately. He shook his head afterwards.


"What true? vindra said you met with Bu Shanti and Dania, right? mama wants to meet them on purpose because she wants to talk about arranged marriage?"


"No, it's Vindra who hasn't thought badly of mom. People don't talk there. It's up to Vindra who wants to be the same, mama doesn't want a mate anymore,"


Vindra immediately opened her eyes after hearing the statement of the mother who seemed to be delivered seriously.


"Really, Ma?"


"Yes, it's up to you who you want to be with, but later if you have met mama still have the right to judge and say 'no' yes?"


Vindra clenched her hand and lifted her up. He is overflowing his happiness now.


"Mama's weird part. Don't want his son dating but still Vindra's mate,"


"Yes, the important mother is close to me first, dating or marriage later. But Vindra won't either. So it's up to him,"


"I'm the same Dania near me, Ma. We're going from small but I just think he's a friend, can't be more. If more than ever I was the same. Mama doesn't need to mate me with anyone, I'll definitely meet if it's time,"


Hadi rubbed his son's shoulder and then patted him once and gave a message that actually He had often conveyed but it was never satisfied He listened to the message in the ear of Vindra.


"It's fine to have one, Vin. Remember papa's message, don't repeat the same mistake. Enough Zeline aja you ever hurt,”


*******


Today is the scheduled departure of the final batch group on vacation to Yogyakarta. It was their last holiday trip as a student.


In one bus is filled by mixed children from all classes. And incidentally, what Jerry wanted to achieve was one bus with Zeline.


But unfortunately Jerry's desire to get really close to Zeline is sitting next to him is not achieved, which is instead He made fire beard when he knows the fact that Zeline is sitting next to Vindra.


“Pretty crazy, time yes ex sitting next door. You can't do this,”


Jerry protested to the committee but was not listened to. Everything is regulated, and no one has the right to change that rule.


“Let's be safe, follow the rules, Jer, don't have much cingcong. Vindra's destiny sits with her ex. Don't be envious. God did not give your blessing to sit with Zeline, already megem aja lo mouth,” said Dino commemorating his friend who was really disappointed with the rules of sitting that had been made by the committee. He is forced to bite his finger, holding in jealousy because Zeline is sitting with her best friend who is Zeline's ex-lover.


“Vin, tukeran deh,”


“No, I want to follow the rules so that the trip goes according to plan,”


“Ah campsite lo,”


On the other hand, Zeline also wanted to say she objected to sitting with Vindra. He prefers to sit with Chaca alone. If with a close friend is more fun actually, or if not with Chaca, Zeline also does not mind sitting with other students, but not Vindra.


“Kevin, am I really sitting with Vindra? Why not Chaca? I want to sit with Chaca can't I? Or the same as others, can't you? What girls mean I,”


“Zeline, it's just to strengthen friendship with other class children, that's the purpose of one bus contents from all classes, not one bus for one class full,”


Zeline sighed softly. Honestly, he was disappointed with the decision. Though He hoped to sit with Chaca, so that on the way they could chat with familiar as usual, it is inconceivable that he sat next to Vindra. Which is definitely awkward.


“Okay, everyone please put their respective suitcases into the bus luggage yes. After that, you can sit in the prepared place. There's a name on every bench, so you're sitting down,”


“Ah already, already want to leave again, really I see Vindra sitting with Zeline,”


“Jer, lo why the hell? Do not do that, this holiday ‘kan last time for our generation, later there will be no holiday story or study tour kayak usually again, so enjoy with a happy heart, do not be upset,”


Jerry immediately changed his expression by being forced to smile. He has really put his heart into Zeline so seeing Zeline with the others even though it is his own best friend, he is still upset. Moreover, he knew Vindra was Zeline's ex. So he's getting pissed.


But he could do nothing because the rules were like that. And for the sake of smooth travel as well. If each child chooses a sitting friend, there can be a riot. Therefore came the rules that inevitably obeyed for the smooth running of their journey as well.


“This is not a honeymoon trip lo same Zeline, Jer, so do not ngarep can be both,”


“Ah noisy lo, talking once again I gibeng nih,”


Zam laughed loudly because he had received such a warning from his friend. He likes to tease Jerry especially when Jerry is jealous.


“All suitcases have been in the trunk, okay you can sit in each place,” said Kevin, as the head of Osis at their school.


“During the trip will be watched so do not neko-neko, there is also a cctv camera, which gets along well, if you do not know the next friend can be acquaintance first. Maybe there are those who do not know my colleagues because ‘kan different classes nih,”


Vindra and Zeline were already sitting where they were. No chatter at all. There was no introduction either because they already knew even once one house, one room, one bed. Their former status, made them really awkward. That's why we can just be quiet.


Before they started the trip, they were given food. After that pray together so that their journey can be launched to the destination. So that you can arrive in Yogyakarta in good health.


“Ready to go,”


The bus began to take the wheels off their school which became a gathering place for all parties who took part in the trip this time and became the starting point of departure as well.


“Bby singing-singing. Anyone want to make a sound?”


“Jerry new,”


Dino held out Jerry's arm sitting opposite her. Dino sat with a student next to his class named Dante, and Dino sat on the sidelines while Dante was in the corner. Jerry was also on the sidelines so it was easy for Dino to take out the arms of his best friend who was trying to sincerely accept the fact that he could not sit with the target of his heart.


“Apaan hell lo, Din!”


“Lah, time of farewell lo ngajuin yourself to sing,”


“Gue will want to sing with me,”


“Dih, the scene does not want to be the same! Self-conscious napa,”


Jerry chuckles and punches Dino in the shoulder which always makes him hit by reality. He was told to stay conscious.


“Or Vindra want to sing?”


“No, I can't, you forget, Kev?”


“Oh okay-okay, anything else? Famous prince can't sing,”


“Gue wants to sing but if the same is Vindra,” said Dewi who immediately made him the object of cheering children on the bus.


“Taste Anang Ashanty time yak,”


“Aamiin, may I be the same Vindra can be like Anang Ashanty who loves each other, happy, a henchman aja his marriage relationship,”


“Idih ngarep lo distance Goddess!”


The goddess laughed as others made themselves a laughing stock. He was not hurt at all because he was so confident, expecting such a relationship with Vindra.


“No need to laugh, follow a laugh,”


Vindra warns Zeline who is also one of the people who laugh. Zeline's bladder frowned not liking to hear Vindra's words.


“Emang why the hell? Like it I want to laugh or not,”


“Lo can't laugh, banned,”


“Emang why? Can't laughing time? I ‘kan amused the Goddess so laugh,”


“Yes but you don't have to laugh, like I'm really targeted by Dewi,”


“You have a lot of interest, it's okay, Vindra. Maybe there is a match and be your soul mate,”


“Asaan anyway lo, not very clear,”


“Lho isn't clear? That's ‘kan prayer, Vindra. You should have dong. No one knows your soul mate, only time from those who ngincar you it's there who really be your soul mate,”


“Once my ex is my soul mate,”


“Hah?”


Vindra chuckled and pointed at Zeline's tense face. Zeline's mouth opened slightly and her forehead frowned as she looked at him.


They interact together, while the others are busy singing together after Kevin turns on the playlist.


“Iya ‘kan no one knows destiny,”


“You mean your ex could be your soul mate? Is that Anin? I'll let you know, Vin,”


“I'm not Anin, anyways did I say specifics about who? Don't be so smart,”


Vindra did not know where to get the encouragement so she could talk like that. And clearly Vindra was immediately shocked upon hearing that remark.


“Former lo si Zeline?”


“Yes don't know, I don't know my soul mate after living as a heaven, ‘kan I say aja, I don't know also,”


Zeline chuckled and shook her head a few times. “Yes not possible, Vin,”


“But don't know what God says about my soul mate,”

Dinner in Yogyakarta was very warm. After feeling tired and bored during the trip from Jakarta to Yogyakarta, now is the time for those who have cleaned at the hotel to fill their stomachs.


Dinner this time is gudeg claw, fried chicken, and spicy shrimp. All are free to enjoy what they want without being limited in portions so that those who are really hungry can take any portion they want.


“Padahat given lemper same pastries on the road yes, had stopped by also at the restaurant for lunch but it feels like a really hungry anyway? My stomach is, njir. Very strange yak,”


Said Jerry sitting next to Vindra. Three of his best friends have chosen a table that is lined with four chairs, right for them.


“Sama wey, maybe because we sleep a lot of times, so once the eyes are sticky innate laper muluk,”


“And I also eat ciki-ciki that I brought you know, but I'm still hungry. Soaring my stomach, njir,”


“Gue regular aja,”


“Ah lo mah stay cool anyway. Hungry said just hungry,”


“Ya is hungry but ordinary, not hungry,”


“Lu divided food equals Zeline huh? Last time I saw, in addition to eating had his own, you shared the same Zeline ‘kan?”


Vindra nodded her head. He did not expect his best friend to know that he and Zeline had shared snacks they brought to prepare for provisions on the road.


“Where to sit next to Zeline with a long time, bro?”


Vindra shrugged her shoulders in between meals filling her stomach. There was nothing strange when he had to sit next to Zeline. At first he admitted it was awkward, speechless but slowly could melt, not even hesitate to offer each other food after He first started.


“Nih, you want my chocolate?” Vindra asked Zeline who closed her eyes to listen to the playlist of songs played on the bus. Because there was no response from Zeline, Vindra finally deliberately stomped slowly on his ex-wife's arm which immediately made him open his eyes.


“What?”


“Lo no budeg ‘kan, Vin? This is my chocolate bar, you want it?”


“I brought food too kok,”


“Yes it's okay, I just want nawarin aja, no need to show off food,”


“Ih I'm not showing off but I mean so you don't have to bother giving food to me, Vin,”


“Not anything relax, take it if you want,”


Instead of taking the chocolate bar that was handed out by her ex-husband, Zeline actually grabbed a snack in the form of potato chips with barbeque flavor variants.


After opening the snack packaging, Zeline directly extended it towards Vindra who was immediately confused and wondered. He was confused because Zeline offered it as well.


“Come please take my ciki. Cobain deh, good to know,” told Zeline but Vindra shook his head.


“If you want me to try your food, okay it's okay. But you must also try the food I bargained,”


Zeline finally nodded her head. There is not the slightest awkward feeling difficult, therefore it takes moments like this between them.


“Okay thanks, Vindra. Now it's your turn to try to ciki me, so good,”


Zeline offers Vindra again. Because the chocolate was already accepted Zeline, now replace Vindra who felt the snacks owned by Zeline.


“How does it feel?” Ask Zeline.


“Enak but it's so outrageous the roof is yes. Do not eat too much like that, want to get sick lo?”


“It's healthy-just aja,”


“Child micin really, not changed it,”


Zeline who was engrossed in chewing her snacks instantly stopped moving her mouth when Vindra spoke like that.


“Not changed? Meaning?”


“Me time, you also want to eat like that ‘kan? Spicy-spicy doyan too,”


“Yes, do you remember?”


“Remember, time forgot,”


Zeline chuckles over her nervousness that suddenly comes after Vindra confesses that the little thing about her is not forgotten by Vindra. Unexpected by him Vindra who all this time seemed to care nothing about him, it turns out to know what he likes too.


“Lupain, do not keep in mind, the danger you know,”


“Emang why? Like my brain memory is, if you still want to remember yes justin, do not you need to tell me to forget. Besides that ‘kan trivial things I know from lo, it's only natural that I still remember,”


“I don't think you even know what I like,”


“Tau, never stayed one house,”


Vindra flinched with a pat on her shoulder. Instantly his memory that was replaying the moment where he chatted with Zeline on the bus was dissolved because of Jerry.


“Lo why eat it still anyway? Where to eat it relaxed so, eyes do not focus, lo why?”


“Nothing,”


“Against any thought of times. Very lo, Vin. Still young has a lot of mind burden,”


“Apaan anyway, njir. I no longer have a mind,”


“Lah lo is not a human dong if there is no thought?”


Vindra clucked when mocked by Jerry, upset he punched slowly the arm of his best friend who was almost finished eating.


“His dinner! Don't be too relaxed, this abis ‘kan want to rest,”


“Bawel mouth lo. I also know kali,”


“Lo thinks what the hell? Any load of thoughts?”


“Not there, don't be cocky, bro,”


“Seriously? For a moment leave the burden of your mind, Nio. Focus want a happy holiday,”


“Iya understand me, do not need lo ajarin,”


“Do you remember the moment of togetherness with Zeline? Hm? Glad you couldn't sit next to Zeline for a few hours? How long were we on our journey? Eight hours, right? Well means lo as long as it sits with him,”


“Means that it is a provision from Allah, I am beside him, not lo. Thank you already,”


“Waduh, next in what sense? On the side while sitting, or beside him for good?”


Dino and Zam laughed loudly at the question Jerry asked Vindra. The words thrown from Vindra's mouth made Jerry wonder and needed a straightforward explanation. Suddenly he was jealous when he heard Vindra say that God's provision was him right next to Zeline.


“Wey's wawab! What do you mean next to Zeline? Next to him forever? Next to him sitting time?”


“Yes, I'm just an ordinary person who can't answer such questions,”


Dino and Zam laughed even more because Vindra's answer must have made Jerry feel scared but they liked Jerry's expression now which looked very irritated with Vindra.


“Gue hope very fitting home later seating rules changed,”


Vindra laughed this time. Jerry still seems not to accept the fact that he is sitting next to Vindra, indeed the rules that require them to sit together.


******


“Wuidih is not a can of clothes is good very who want to go to Beringharjo market, you want to shop what would you like a date?”


Jerry chuckled then rubbed his chin with an overconfident expression when he had just come out of the room, immediately praised and mocked by Dino, his best friend.


“Cant me?”


“Beuh! Really good-looking, the handsome is not canned,”


Vindra came out of the room. Coincidentally during this vacation Jerry's roommate is Vindra. One room is only inhabited by two people and of course one gender. Because it's a school walk, not a honeymoon.


“He wears shirt. Formal really yes, already kek want a proposal,” said Vindra who also mocked Jerry.


“Learn before real application,”


“Wuidih-wuidih, who would you like to apply? Spill dong spill,”


“Who else? No other and no not is Zel—“


“Let's all have breakfast before shopping in the market,”


Instructions for breakfast instantly made Vindra and three of his best friends sit in the dining room of the inn which is so large in size.


“Eat the voracious yes, later break a while just leaving us. Shopping as much as possible, do not forget the care of parents or family. There may be nitip clothes, bags, sandals, and so on. But if it is time to finish shopping, yes, do not be difficult to know. After that, you have to gather again so that the city continues together, do not let anyone miss,”


“Ready, Sir,” said the students replied Mr. Iwan who gave a message to all his students who were enjoying breakfast before rushing off.


“Lo will buy what, Vin? What's a nitip?”


“Not there, I guess I don't nitip anything. I just want to be healthy, he said,”


“Ah sweet talk nyokap lo bro,”


“Gue tanyain want what, uh talk like that. Yes I have simpulin means nyokap I do not want anything,”


“If you have a girlfriend, think you're a boyfriend you want to buy. Eh but lo ‘kan don't have a girlfriend ya,”


“That's it, use speaking again,”


“Means looking for dong, don't wait later, brp. Hunting old lo,”


“Heleh bacot lo. I'm sure I'm happy,”


Vindra nags Dino who advises her to immediately find a companion while Dino himself is not clear who his lover is because of which Vindra knows close to some women.


“Do not mending my word if you do not have adult thoughts, rather than the end failed again,”


“Udah diem, do not need to be noisy if my advice mah,”


Vindra brought her index finger closer to her lips so Jerry could stop talking. He does not like to be the subject of speech especially if it has begun to offend his failed past.


They continue eating as preparation before the road to the shopping place with good quality goods, typical of Yogyakarta, and the price does not drain the bag.


After filling their stomachs, they were asked to sit around while waiting for the bus to be prepared.


“Pak this we not long ‘kan nungunya?”


“Yes not dong, it's one of the buses there is less fuel. Part ‘kan just finished eating, let the rice go down first, ntar vomit again,”


“Well we-we ain't nobody mabok, sir,”


“Ya ‘kan aja if abis eat directly on the bus and then vomit. I know no one mabok each person has often brought their own car to school,”


“Puasin aja used to sit before going around the market later on tired you know. There rame, and you rarely go down to the market ‘ right? Go to the mall often, see, right? City boy mah so,”


“If shopping is not tired, sir. Especially the girls,”


“All buses are ready. Can leave now, sir,”


Mr. Iwan was approached by a bus driver who reported that four buses were ready for use.


Mr. Iwan immediately gave instructions to his students to immediately enter the bus in an orderly and seated position in accordance with the rules at the beginning.


“Pak, can I not be special now only I move seats?”


“Where do you want to move?”


“After Zeline,”


“But the Vindra will not?”


Jerry immediately smiled widely upon hearing his teacher's speech. There was a leniency from the teacher, so he immediately asked Vindra.


“By a spare no?”


“Ngot-no! Sorry, I don't want my seat to change. Want to kayak early because I ‘kan obey the rules,”


“Eek eek kittens lo! Very secret, people have been given all the same Mr. Iwan eh lo even stylish not want to nurutin me,”


“Ngapain want to be followed. Talk to you later,”


“Before doang, Vin! Replace napa, do not be stingy to be a tuh! Wake up, I want—“


“Aaan anyway? Did I say yes? I said I want to obey the rules. I don't want to move seats, hear me?”


“Halah said you want to sit down deket Zeline. Yes ‘kan?!”


“Dih, the whole country is not obeyed. Bodo very, like me,”


“Gantian bentar doang, Jeez! Very dirty dah,”


“Biarin, already there sitting in the original place, do not whine to me so that I can sit in my place,”


“Udah Jerry back to the original place there. Genio doesn't want to replace you, so don't be forced,”


Jerry grumbled in his heart. He was really upset with Vindra because at first Mr. Iwan seemed to agree only if He sat in Vindra's place. But unfortunately Vindra was reluctant to comply with his wishes.


Jerry had to accept his fate. He remained seated in his place, instead of being able to feel the position of Vindra sitting next to Zeline.


“Padahat Pak Iwan has been lax yet it seems. But Vindra is like that. Damn it, Vindra. I was really happy just now, if I Vindra no problem want to change seats with me, eh no idea he belagu, hahah kampret!”


Jerry was still grumbling against his best friend. He had really hoped that it was because he heard the answer from Mr. Iwan who did not mind if he changed seats with Vindra if indeed Vindra wanted to.


Unlike the mood of Jerry now who was upset, Vindra was happy because he managed to make Jerry's mood change from enthusiastic to lethargic and irritated.


Zeline had a glance next to her, and she saw Vindra smiling. Zeline is confused.


“Why you? Abis debate with Jerry instead smile?”


“Who smiles?”


“You fought,”


“Well, why fight? He is the only one who does not know himself, there are already rules even breaking. Coercion into me anyway. Right I want to refuse, this guy is my bench. I like to refuse his will or not, anyways, why the hell? Want to sit next to him? Sana lo aja who moved, if her next-door friend she did not want to change sit same lo, just sit there on her lap Jerry,”


“Aaan the hell you are, speaking carelessly. Who said I wanted to sit with Jerry? How to smear your mouth,”


“Lah, I'm not happy about my decision to refuse Jerry,”


“Who is not happy? I didn't say that. I was just there, why are you smiling? Lah you even talk at length,”
