Branching Love

Branching Love
Fried HP



"Why?" adi asked confusedly.


Adi who had pulled the chair wanted to sit down did not so, seeing the stare of the begong that Zay gave him plus Irsyad the younger brother who since his arrival always looked down with trembling shoulders. "Which mom?" ask Adi later.


Zay could not say or answer, as if Zay's mouth was silenced in all languages, but Zay responded to Adi's question by pointing to the kitchen.


In the kitchen Nur was washing hands in the sink while Risda who helped Nur fry the eggs. Adi walked past Nur and Risda who were busy with their respective activities, Adi continued to walk closer to the refrigerator taking cold water and drinking it.


Glek glek. The sound of cold water passing through Adi's esophagus aka the sound of Adi drinking.


Without turning his eyes Nur advised Adi "don't drink the cold water paggg.." Nur's speech stopped when he accidentally switched his eyes and saw Adi's face that looked strange. Nur becomes gawking out of words just standing glued to the earth staring at Adi without blinking.


Adi looked at Nur in surprise while raising her next eyebrow questioning what happened.


Risda who was too focused on the cellphone he was holding realized that the eggs he fried had matured and raised them. "Ma, this is the eggs, Risda added vegetables yes" asked Risda who while stirring fried eggs with vegetables while Risda's hands were busy grasping her cellphone while reading a novel.


There was no answer from Nur to the question from Risda and Risda shifted her attention to look at Nur. "Ma" call Risda.


There was no answer from Nur. Risda looked at where Nur's eyes were looking and Risda looked at Adi who was standing in confusion looking at Nur who was dumbfounded to see him.


Just like the reaction of Nur and Zay without a word, Risda's reaction was equally silenced without a word to see Adi's disheveled handsome face.


Nur woke up for a moment when he smelled the aroma of oil and said "fry the eggs again" said Nur who was still not fully aware.


Risda heard Nur's orders to do what he was told, but Risda was wrong to fry instead of the egg that Risda fried instead Risda threw her cellphone in the hot oil.


Adi in confusion realized what Risda did, pushed Risda away, turned off the stove and grabbed the frying pitcher in Risda's hand, poked Risda's phone and threw Risda's phone in every direction.


Phoom. sound hp Risda who touched the floor due to throw Adi.


Nur and Risda regained their senses and looked at Adi questioning what was happening.


"Since when you are so sick" angry Adi at Risda all evaporate and release the frustration that has been buried since. Adi again approached the refrigerator to spend the rest of the water from the bottle he drank earlier. While Risda cleaned up the mess of oil splashes on the floor without answering or refuting Adi, Nur himself continued frying again, finish what was done by Risda earlier but Nur tried hard not to laugh with Adi's face that looks chaotic.


After the atmosphere calmed down again. Cuisine cooked by Nur has been ready all stay serving alone at the dining table.


Adi was still in the kitchen opening and closing the refrigerator looking for what he was looking for from there.


"Adi" call Nur.


"Yes, ma" closed the refrigerator looking towards Nur.


"Have shower".


"Yet. Just wash your face and brush your teeth" to follow where Nur went.


"Make there. Don't follow mama".


"Later ma".


"Hey" shouted in disbelief Adi "your branch is handsome like this, dare you say ruin the scene. It's just delicious". continued blabbering is unclear.


Risda, who never wanted to hear anyone blabbering or fussing, moved closer to Adi and pulled Adi's hand forcefully, bringing Adi into the bathroom close to the kitchen.


Risda refuses to let Adi into the bathroom and locks the door from the outside. "Don't forget to read, the glass is wide inside" cried Risda behind the locked door.


Risda passed by leaving Adi just to grab a towel for her brother Adi but just a few steps Risda stepped up the echoing screams heard from the bathroom "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" yelled Adi loudly as hard as he could when he saw the reflection of his handsome face from the glass in the bathroom.


How not to scream. Adi was surprised not to see his face so horror, menor because of make up.


The Flasback


Irsyad back in Adi's room with a variety of tools and equipment make up his mother that Irsyad brought in a special bag of makeup that happened to also be there.


Irsyad depicts a panda face on Adi's handsome face.


Mascara that should be used on the eyelashes instead Irsyad scratched on the lower eyelids Adi while the lipstick Irsyad describe on the cheeks, the style of clown brothers and on the lips Adi, Adi, Irsyad circles with dark lipstick so that Adi's lips are swollen.


And when Adi woke up earlier, Adi immediately washed his face and brushed his teeth without reflecting first be the make up of the hard work of Irsyad faded irregular again


Flashback Off


Zay and Irsyad who were sitting in the dining room immediately ran over to the origin of the screaming voice and asked what happened to Nur who was laughing giggling himself.


"What, why, who yelled that" asked Zay.


Nur had painstakingly stopped her laughter to answer her husband's question "Aa aa Adiiii. HAhahah" continued the loud laughter.


Zay did not understand too much so he just listened to Irsyad who had begun to realize what happened began to step back slowly.


"Irrrrrshaaaaaaddddd" a shout echoed Adi from inside the bathroom and Irsyad heard the cry of his name by Adi glaring his eyes in fear and surprise.


"Ma, sir, I think it's too late to go to school" stammered Irsyad as he forced Nur's hand and Zay saluted and hurried out of the house, fearing Adi's anger. Irsyad widened her footsteps running out of the house and leaving for school.


Risda returned to the kitchen with a towel for Adi.


Risda knocked on the bathroom door first and opened it a little just to put her hand in a new towel she had taken from the closet.


Almost ten minutes passed by Adi came out of the bathroom with a face that had been flushed but the makeup on Adi's face was not perfectly clean. Adi came out of the bathroom with reddened eyes wanting to cry.


Chequek. The bathroom door is open.


"Can't be lost. Huaaaaa" said Adi while crying.


"Hahhahaha" Nur and Zay laughed out loud at the condition of Adi who had been crying only about makeup while Risda herself could only smile knotty, wanted to laugh, reluctant, reluctant, be Risda just a wry smile at a glance and then stare at Adi flatly. In her heart, Risda laughed, laughing, laughing at Adi.


SERIATE...
