Dandelion Dusk

Warjums

"WAH CHEATING LO!!" yelled Oji who denied defeat. He was playing chess with the Beautiful Gem children who were hanging out at Bu Jum's stall.

"Oh, who can't play!" jolt Ardan started to puff.

"Gue just give up" he said as he raised his head high, "Gue doesn't want to be said to be arrogant. Later my fans more, can berabe me."

Ardan stood up to order some food, "Narsh narcissus lo!" he walked away from Oji.

"Eh, where are you going?" ask Oji.

"Eat. My energy's out ngadepin wart rhino kek lo!" ardan said without looking.

Irga came with Karin, followed by Laskar, and at the back there was Arka who hugged Ara.

Oji stood up to welcome, "Well, there's a beautiful guest here." said Oji, inviting Ara to come in.

"Come on Ra." Arka holds Ara's hand to enter the Bu Jum stall or commonly used by the Gem Indah children for basecamp.

The stall is in an alley not far from Permata Indah High School. Not too big, but many come to the shop.

Bu Jum did allow his stall as a basecamp. Children who are lazy to go home, usually go directly there. The place was also strategic to escape when ditching.

"What do you want to eat Ra?" asked Arka who put her bag on the bench.

Ara smiled and looked at Arka, "What's the bang." then she looked at Karin, "What do you want to eat Kar?" ask Karin.

"Same on a bang." replied Karin and sat down beside Irga.

"Mom, special noodle pesen 3 yes!" yelled Arka mentioned her order to Bu Jum.

"Ready, wait for a while Arka." replied Bu Jum while giving his thumbs up. Here it already knows each other, even Bu Jum has memorized with children who always come to his stall.

"Bu Jum." call Oji, "The one noodle dealer who has the same taste as his usual drink." continued Oji.

"Do not ma'am, let it get hungry busung aja." chirped Laskar.

"It's so much like me!" lirih Oji, "I'm sick of your responsibilities!" cynical Oji looked at Laskar.

"Pay your debt, bejibun kek grass neighbor!" said Ardan.

"Mirror dong." replied Oji.

"I only have 210 grand" he continued.

Ardan shook his head slowly, "No orkay but to eat a debt!"

"Elo is really Ji." said Arka. "Not ashamed!" continued.

"Teh sisri owes, marimas owes, extra joss owes, everything is all over owed" said Irga while calculating the amount owed Oji.

"Yet you spread my disgrace." Oji put on a sad face. "But gapapa, the important thing is I stay handsome!" sumringah.

"Bastrad! Lo think warjum where the debt is collected." reply Ardan who still focus on the bowl of noodles.

The kids call it Warjum. Let's make it easier to say it. The city has also become a home for them.

Bu Jum came out with a tray of noodles and drinks, "Monggo, enjoyed" said Bu Jum handing over the look to Arka.

"Thank you Ma'am Jum." Arka replied.

"Eh neng geulis who is this?" tanya Bu Jum pointed at Ara.

"Oh this is my mother, her name is Ara." Arka answered a question from ma'am Jum.

"Oh youes, I'm not going back yet." Bu Jum pamit back into the stall. Because Arka and the others were sitting on a bench provided by Bu Jum's shop in front of his stall.

They are used to sitting in front of rather than inside, because inside is usually a place for other people who want to buy food.

****

The more afternoons more and more come to warjum. Spend time joking around there.

"Thanks Ka." said a person who tagged Aji while patting Arka's shoulder.

"Just relax, like who you are." replied Arka. "Where are you?" ask Arka.

Aji looked for an empty bench and prepared to sit down, "Udah is healthy. Thanks, I didn't know who else to ask."

"Yoi, we're like brothers here. So don't bother asking for help."

That time when Arka was out with her friends, Aji called in a worried voice. After being asked, his sister was ill.

He asked Arka for help to get to the hospital using his car. And Arka is happy to help Aji.

"Where is El not visible?" ask Aji.

"Where do I know." reply Oji ogah-ogahan.

"So he said he wanted to go out, ntar also followed here" replied Laskar while playing games on his cellphone.

All eyes looked towards Elon. "New in nonsense has appeared. Long live lo!" said Oji welcoming Elon.

Elon got off the bike and headed towards his friend gathered, followed by Sonya who followed behind him.

Sonya gave her smile to the person in the warjum, but they felt indifferent to Sonya's arrival.

"Mom Jum!" shout Oji.

Bu Jum came out of the stall in a hurry, "What's wrong Oji mas." asked Bu Jum.

Oji raised his iced tea glass, "So how many spoons is this, ma'am?" his eyes looked towards Bu Jum.

"Yes as usual or mas." replied Bu Jum.

"But it's so sweet." Oji lowered his glass. "After writhing Bu Jum.eeeaa.." continued Oji.

Oji does often tease Bu Jum. Nothing more than a joke. He also respects his older parents.

"Basic!" said Bu Jum while shaking his head to see Oji's behavior and left the front of the shop.

"This is if the melt garem is given life!" chirps Irga.

"I swear, not my friend!" said Ardan while moving away from Oji.

"You're the one who.." Oji is in Ardan's hands.

"Sana lo!" Ardan let go of his hand and pushed Oji's body slowly until he fell off the bench.

"Hahahaha." A moment of laughter in the warjum broke to see Oji who had fallen backward.

"Racaine lo!" said Irga who was still holding her stomach the effect of not being able to stop laughing.

"Laknat lo all! Good thing I'm handsome, so I'm patient." Oji stroked his chest.

Ara smiled looking at the absurd behavior of Arka's friends. Shaking her head, Ara's tail eyes unintentionally looked towards Elon.

Elon was cleaning up Sonya's uniform that was hit by noodle sauce.

"Be careful when you eat. I said slowly" said Elon, his right hand was busy cleaning Sonya's uniform with a tissue.

"Yes-yes, that's very nice."

All of that did not escape the sight of people who were in warjum. They show different expressions.

"Ekheemmmm.. uhuk uhuk.uh please help me dong!" said Oji pretending to choke.

"It's really hot here." said Irga.

"When it is cloudy again very hot." continued Oji.

Oji stared at Sonya with narrowed eyes. Elon who saw it immediately said, "Ngapain lo?" he said with a cold tone.

"Father" said Oji immediately turning his face away.

Ara looked towards the watch that was in her left hand. "Bang, go home yuk!" bring Ara. It turned out to be showing at 3pm.

Maybe the parents will be worried if they come home late.

Arka stood up and paid for the food. "Ayoo" said Arka.

"Gue first." said Arka to all his friends in the warjum.

"Kar, you wanna go with me?" ask Ara.

"Gue is waiting for Irga, Ra." replied Karin.

"Gue's done, come home" said Irga immediately pulled Karin's hand.

"Bye, first yes brother." said Ara. Everyone nodded immediately answering Ara's part.

Laskar also stood up, "Woii kok lo ninggalin me anyway!" gerutu Oji immediately chased after Laskar.

They all finally farewell home, leaving Elon and Sonya still in place.

"Ken.." - Sonya.

Elon looked to the side, "Why?"

"They don't like it, I'm here" Sonya said.

"Okay, maybe they're not used to it yet." Elon rubbed Sonya's head, "Udah don't think. Yukk home."

Sonya nodded in favor of Elon's invitation.

"Did I not pantes them together?"

Ready to breathe deeply for next part 😂
