Brother Gemes

Flower park

"I accept marriage and marriage Tera Ramadhani bin..eh, bint pak... euh, whose name is your father, baby? Oh, skip first. With dowry a set of contraceptives is paid in cash" Noa said.

Tera shook her head slowly listening to Noa's words this morning. Diligence Noa who this morning has flanked Tera to his room.

"You ngigau or nap?" tanya Tera kalem's.

Noa cengenesan's. "Preparation. Let once said directly legitimate."

"Hm, you think it's a distance. Still a long time to know" Tera said.

"That time passed" said Noa full of immortals.

"- these days there are no flowers in the morning. Hm, during a week's holiday here, baby." Noa said full of regrets.

Tera sighed. He shifted a little and then faced Noa. He stroked her lover's cheek.

Tera. 'Hm, his body temperature is still not normal.'

"Gapapa." whispered Tera full of tenderness.

Noa brought her face closer, she kissed Tera's cheeks full of affection. He whispered in Tera's ear, the heat of her breath and the tingly sensation merged into one. That pounding feeling made Tera's cheeks heat up.

Noa whispered. "In exchange, today we go to the Cipanas flower garden. Wanna don't?"

Tera small nagging. "Now. I made breakfast. Red porridge would you?"

"That sweet red porridge is yes. Want to, I want to eat it." said Noa enthusiastically.

His spirit deserves a thumbs up, even though his condition still does not indicate that he is back to health.

Last night, after dinner, Tera asked Noa to shop for groceries. They took to a supermarket in between sleepiness of everyone who was in the car.

In order for Noa to recover quickly, he should not eat much and snack outside. That's Tera's determination.

After cleaning up, Tera rushed into the kitchen to make breakfast sweet red porridge like Noa wanted.

While Noa was gathered with her two best friends, they were playing congklak that Ahmad found behind the villa. Maybe the toy belonged to the previous villa tenant who was left here.

Joking and teasing colored their togetherness. Throwing each other mockery has become commonplace for them.

Sandy enters the kitchen, making a hot chocolate that has smoke billowing in her glass. He glanced cynically without saying anything. Tera was indifferent by continuing to stir the porridge.

As Tera's attention poured out only on the porridge pan, the hand she used to stir the porridge on the rough banks by Sandy made Tera raise her face.

"What does he see of you?" cynical Sandy.

Tera smiled. "Ask yourself. You'll get an answer from him."

"Don't be so soft-spoken" Sandy said with emphasis on every word she said.

"Because people like you, must be loved" said Tera full of tenderness.

The porridge he made was ripe. He lifted the pot from the stove and put a few large spoons into the bowl. Tera also walked with a bowl of red porridge to the place where Noa was.

They still play congklak. There was a conversation that Tera deliberately looked at before walking up to them.

"Si Ahmad, you sneaky. One lobe fills two seeds." Dimas protested.

"That's what it is, Dim."

Noa calmly answered Dimas.

"Yes really. The man I wanted was the same Noa. Lo is complicated." said Ahmad pinned Dimas' head with pleasure.

Dimas complained, then asked Noa. "meaning? I don't understand."

Noa grin wide. Ahmad answered Dimas's question.

"Lo has two seeds for one hole right. Do you usually split one-on-one?"

"Cabul lo." muttered Dimas.

Tera shook her head while listening to their super perverted joke on a still day this morning.

As Tera approached the loyal Noa sitting on her back, Dimas and Ahmad shouted.

"Tera..gue will." cried Ahmad.

Dimas was excited. "Emmm. Do I not exist?"

Tera sat before Noa, answering Dimas's question.

"There was. There's still a lot in the pot."

After the speech ended, Dimas and Ahmad ran quickly, they raced to the kitchen, elbowed and pushed each other until Dimas fell strangled with a loud thud.

Noa doesn't care about them. He saw the contents of the bowl that was still puffing smoke.

Tera bribed him, the first bribe that Noa ate with vigor.

"Enak.." said Noa.

He poked Tera's hand as a gesture asking for another bribe.

"This man is taking medicine again." - Tera.

Noa just nodded. Tera also returned to feed him.

"-- - saffron yes."

Sandy watched them, Noa sat on Sandy's back and she didn't know what Sandy was doing. Sometimes Tera steals a look at Sandy who stares with hate at her. Sandy held onto her glass of hot chocolate, smiling mockingly at Tera.

"Udah. Want to add?" ask Tera.

Noa shakes. "Take the medicine. It's full."

Tera laughed lightly listening to Noa's words.

"Tumben, usually to be persuaded. It's hard, it's irritating to know."

"I don't want to repot you" Noa said casually.

"I don't feel at the repotin." whispered Tera.

Taking Noa's medicine in the room, Tera passed Sandy who was still standing watching. He returned with a glass filled with mineral water and medicine.

Noa without the need to be persuaded to swallow the drug. Usually he will protest at times that require him to take medication. He hated medicine, and when he was wounded or sick he always let. The reason, just because it hates drugs that treat and cure its function. Too indifferent and relaxed as well as his hatred with all forms of treatment make his pain become durable.

***

By noon, Noa drove the car to Cipanas. Take them all to visit the flower garden. Unable to see his condition that was still sick with that pale face, Tera looked at Noa. Unfortunately, Noa's focus was only on the streets in front of her.

Arriving at the flower garden, everyone went around. Entering the labyrinth they also enter. They get lost many times. Ahmad cunningly penetrated the walls of the labyrinth made from plants that are cut neatly. Dimas up the hedges of the thicker labyrinth wall. Their behavior is fortunately not contagious to Noa.

He behaves wisely. Carrying a map and holding Tera's hand. Sandy invites him to chat so that Noa's attention gushes to him. Unfortunately, Noa always involved Tera in every chat with Sandy. Makes Sandy even more annoyed at Tera.

After being satisfied playing in the labyrinth, they went around back. Tera told Noa to go to the toilet. Sandy followed by giving distance, Tera knew but pretended not to know.

Out of the toilet, in front of the door Sandy has welcomed. Tera smiled as she could and avoided leaving, but Sandy blocked Tera's hand very tightly.

"Let Noa be with me. You hurt him before. You push him, expensive sell-off. Now you're pinning him down. Make what? For the sake of living costs that can be economical by courting Noa." said Sandy stuck to Tera's heart.

"Gue isn't that cheap." Tera chirped.

"Don't run over that kayak. In front of Noa. Let him know, Sandy."

"It shouldn't be your business." maki Sandy.

"Emang. My business now is to pick up the late Tera in the toilet" said Dimas casually. He saw Sandy who was angry and moved to look at Tera.

"-- Noa wait for you."

Tera and Dimas went hand in hand, leaving Sandy walking behind.

Tera returned to the place where Noa was waiting. Noa smiled inviting Tera to sit next to him.

"Old yes. Toilet's full?" ask Noa.

"Yes full."

Dimas answered and Tera just nodded confirming what was not the truth. Tera forced a smile on Noa.

Sandy was about to sit beside Noa, but Dimas swiftly pulled Sandy.

"Selfie yuk's. I don't have any photos yet, Sandy. Yes, Mad."

Ahmad. They took three pictures. When Tera gave a glance, Ahmad gave a voiceless talking gesture.

"Enjoy, Tera."

That is what Ahmad Tera Angguki said.

"Photo yuk, baby" said Noa.

He positioned the front camera of his phone. They are photographed in different styles.

"Lur, around Bogor yuk. All culinary tourism." invite Ahmad.

"Can. Now it's still daylight." replied Noa kalem.

He took Tera's hand to the parking lot.

They continued their journey around the city of Bogor. Even a culinary tour to the stomach Dimas can not accommodate food anymore. Ahmad was limp and hard to move, he was sleepy and asleep on the way home.

Sandy always invites Noa to chat throughout the trip. The traffic jam doesn't make Noa complain. Though Tera knew, that Noa was tired of driving all day.

Arriving at the villa, Dimas stumbled because of the glut. Ahmad sat on the front porch stroking his stomach. And Tera towards the back porch, today he wants to see the view of the peak at night.

Noa was still chatting with Sandy. His voice was getting clearer, they headed to the place where Tera was sitting enjoying the bone-chilling cold air.

Only a breeze of the night wind pierced the bones and joints, only the grass became the seat of Tera at this time. He looked up at the dark night sky. The sky is so sad.

Noa and Sandy's voice grew clearer indicating they were getting closer to the back of the villa. They walked over to Tera. Noa, who was half-way through, patted her on the forehead and spoke to Sandy.

"Duh, cold. I want to get a jacket for Tera first. Do you want me to take it?" noa said.

"Ehm, don't be. Yes, take it first." said Sandy.

Noa turned the way entering the villa back. Sandy approached Tera, sitting next to Tera while looking occasionally at the back door of the villa.

"That's a big deal, Noa. Like people who only benefit him doang because of the cost of living." Sandy quipped so poignant for the sake of cornering themselves Tera.

'A'n't. The truth is not that. He just cornered me. I really love Noa. As time goes by. Yes.' Inner Tera.

"Gue doesn't feel cornered. Try to take his heart. If he bales your feelings, I'm willing to go." said Tera.

Noa came back in a hurry. Sandy was friendly again. It's like a sycophant.

"Pake the jacket first. It's cold." Noa said.

He put on a jacket for Tera. He himself was not wearing a jacket. Sandy resigned for sleepy reasons.

Noa nodded and Sandy passed away as usual ignoring Tera as if she was something invisible.

Noa sat beside Tera, looking at Tera's face from the side. He realized that something was different from his girlfriend.

While Tera exhaled many times to neutralize his feelings again. He let out a long sigh wanting to throw away the still domineering resentment.

The words Sandy said really hurt her heart. And he would not be willing if Noa had another. He didn't want to leave if Noa chose another.

Noa clapped Tera's hands to call attention. Tera looked at the pale face that now looked sad.

"Why?" ask Noa quietly.

"What are you sad about?" ask Tera who ignored the question that was so difficult to give her answer.

Noa sighed. "Your contagion."

"I'm a gapapa." replied Tera.

Noa looked up. Looking at the vast, starless sky.

"When there are stars, are you still sad?"

Tera looked up, he closed his eyes for a moment and exhaled slowly.

"The sky is without stars." murmured Tera.

Noa raised Tera's body to get closer to her. He held me and held Tera tightly. From his nape, Tera felt Noa's hot breath.

With his leisure Noa compartmentalized his cell phone. He showed a cellphone screen that showed the atmosphere of the night sky filled with flashing stars.

"Star here. Maybe tomorrow the stars in the sky won't come back. You can see the original blink." said Noa full of tenderness.

Grabbing Noa's phone, Tera positioned the phone towards the sky. He lifted his head and smiled.

"This. The star is in the sky. I'm hiding" Tera said.

Noa looked up to see his phone that Tera held high with both hands. He wrapped his hand around Tera's stomach tightly.

His nose now touched Tera's shoulder. The hot breath and shivering body made Tera return the attention to Noa.

"Tomorrow malem we see the stars again. Perhaps the star will not be embarrassed anymore." murmured Noa.

Tera nodded. "It must be great, the view here if there are many stars."

Noa agreed too. Tera looked at Noa's face. Longing face. Noa gave a quick smile. The sad face did not diminish his good looks. He is this because he is carried away by the feelings of his lover.

Tera approached the face facing her. Now Noa's face ducked closer to Tera's face which was not allowed to look down.

Their noses touched. Noa again makes Tera's heart flowery with the phrase inline.

"The era.the form of my love, affection and longing" said Noa.

Tera simply replied to that with a smile. Their warmth contrasts with the air around them.

Finally, Noa makes their romance more complete with a strand of words that invite a smile.

"I accept the marriage and marriage of Tera Ramadhani..."

"Udah is accepted, my dear..."
