Devan sat quietly beside Kian. Now they sit in the back seat, with passengers who were not as crowded as this morning, even there are many empty seats there. So free to choose a seat, but why should you sit together like that?
Devan rested his back on the chair and closed both of his eyes as usual. Without speaking to Kian. Yeah, a cold habit that never goes away.
Unlike the Kian who was engulfed with anxiety. He looked around like something was bothering him. But everything seems to be fine, only in him who is currently not okay.
"Vane..." Call him then turn to Devan who is on his right side, "Lo sleep huh? huh." huh." Asked who saw Devan close his eyes with a calm face.
"Hn, why?" Devan's question was still closing his eyes, but it was calling Kian, which sounded different than usual.
"Gue wants it?" Ask a little doubt.
"Ask aja. If I could answer that I would. And if not, you can ask Professor Einstein later."
The sentence successfully made Kian glare at Devan, "Gue seriously Van!"
"Yes, I did too. The average question from a girl is very difficult to answer a guy. My fault again?"
"Huh... Van if there is someone who is real feeling to lo but use maksa that means how do ya?" He asked with a straight face forward, holding two vegetable ties and tightly grasping the end of his skirt.
"That's just an ambitious feeling he's doing not because he's really sincere with me. Who's really feeling for Elo?" It was relaxing, even though there was something different there.
"It's not me. But I saw someone who felt that way. Continues that he has real feelings for elo, but a moment later, he is the same again. How's that?"
"Lu plain what's emang oon anyway? It's a ginian thing. Yes, obviously it's a playboy or playgirl and he's not sincere with me, why deket or him."
"Oh that's it. Continue if someone likes you, but need proof how? And you're asking for something from him, em.. kayak.it..." He fused his two fingers together, as if there was something he wanted to explain but it was so difficult. Devan who saw also understood immediately.
Plsav
Sentilan landed on Kian's forehead, but not too strong. But enough to make Kian grimace.
"Lo what the hell Van!"
"Lo who thought it was weird. Inget yes one thing, if the feeling is really sincere, he likes and loves you, he will never ask for anything in return or demand you like what he wants. Quite happy, he was very happy. Because the feeling is not about you being perfect, but you are both happy and can accept each other with the shortcomings that you have. Even the highest point of sincerity is sincerity. And feelings are not about taking advantage of something while there is. Proof of the feeling itself is simply by giving without asking. Understood?! Who did that, hn?" He asked by raising his eyebrows
"Gue said it wasn't me. How do you know anyway? Have you ever dated Van?"
"Hm... " Devan wastes her deep breath. "Gue never dated. But when it comes to feeling like, I'm a normal guy. Of course I have feelings for girls."
"Well, the mysterious lo also once loved girls. Who's Van? Which boy?"
"Your head." Devan rested his back on the chair and folded his hands together, slightly smiling there without Kian noticing.
"Hmm. I'm not cool." Say a little pouty.
"Lo want to know him?" He nodded, "You'll know if we graduate later."
"Huh? Have graduated? Nyatain old feelings lo. People can take it first later. New nangis lo. Why didn't you get married, did you graduate?" Chirp Kian, making the ridge on Devan's thin lips wider.
"Gue was never afraid that he would be taken by someone else. In fact, at least two, the first I wrongly like someone, and the second means he is not my soul mate. If he wants it, it's okay, too. I'm going to propose and marry him at that time." Ender Devan.
"Gee.. Gercep also lo. Don't forget to invite me too." That forced smile was offended on Kian's lips.
"Please, you will get a special invitation position there." Why the smile did not fade from Devan's lips without Kian realized.
"It won't be long. Who am I going to go with then? If I'm still single, then I'll go alone, right?"
'I also don't know my fate for graduating. If my mind changes, I can continue school. And may you be happy with your choice of Van.'
"Hm... I'm sure you'll go with someone you love and certainly sincere."
"Lo sure? I'm not sure." That wry smile immediately gushed there.
"St... I'm tired of talking. Diem! Mouth can't be on the brake, can it?"
"The use of mouth for what Van if not to talk. Oh yes, vegetables you take home." Put the vegetables in Devan's lap.
"Why me? Make it." Serah Devan is back.
"The one that Elo Devan gave me. Why am I...."
"Free, I can't cook." In a nutshell, cut Kian's words.
"Seriously lo? So you've been all this time???"
"Gue can only cook eggs and rice doang. If the problem is, I buy the most in the front stall."
"Oh, okay then I'll cook for you same Gio. There is still unfinished material at the school. And we'll have to suss out at home." His spirit, now his face looks not as dark as before.
"God... I'm tired of learning."
"can't. Do you know whose opponent you are? Could be ntar lo...."
"Learning is not a match or proof if you do not pinter. There's no good luck showing you that." Cynics, which again cut the words Kian.
"But you yourself are abstaining from him Van. How do you lose?"
"Eatya has ears tuh use. Lo inget was the one he said back then, "Okay! If you can, whatever you want will I do." Aye right? Actually at that time I also did not really intend to get there anyway. Only I often see the child who is under him. Arrogant person. So I'm just following the manas-manasin he doang."
"Because?"
"That means I'm lucky here. He's not."
"But..."
"You are calm."
The debate stopped, after Devan patted Kian's head gently. So that the mpu can be quiet and calm. To be honest, he is a little tired at the moment and needs to rest.

"Assalamula." Kian cried after the door was opened by Devan.
"Waalaikumsalam, Kiannnnnn's brother" Shouted a boy with a cry from inside the house. Running out and directly into the arms of Kian, until the vegetable was thrown into Devan's face accidentally.
"Gio, don't run around the deck. Later jatoh" Kian who spoke softly while rubbing the boy's back.
There was soon someone who also welcomed Kian's arrival at the house. " Waalaikumsalam's. There is a Lo Ki. Pantes was a storm earlier."
"Eh yes Mik. Are you still here?"
"Hm." In short, then sit on the sofa casually. "Udah comfortable I'm here Ki. Why else would I move." Entirely.
Pock
Mikko, who had been relaxing on the sofa, spread her hands out on the head of the sofa and raised one leg to the other as a boss. Even now aghast, because the throw from Devan's hoodie right in his face.
"Lo how much Van!! Smell ogeb!!" He threw the hoodie to the side.
"Let you be conscious, and know yourself." Ketus.
"I know myself! I mopped, nyapu, wash the same dishes wash clothes as well. Where else do you get someone as you are."
"Kok I even think you fit Mik." Excited Kian who sat Gio on the sofa next to Mikko.
"What match Ki? So your dream husband, right?" He said with a smile and raised his two eyebrows up and down. Smiling meaningfully.
"Yes, fit in as a maid!"
"Haha... I thought it was Mik."
"Have you on, so mean to me. If I leave here no one takes my hand, keep begging to stay ya.!" Threaten Mikko.
"Loose your nap. Not most dreams. If you want to go, noh my door is wide open for you." Ketus.
"Lo was really rude Van. I just hitchhiked too... And it won't be long."
The two are still arguing about this unclear thing. Making Kian who heard him dizzy and immediately shouted for them to shut up.
"So, it's only been a few minutes here. Moreover, Gio who every day had to face the two big brothers. Dizziness Gio kak, seemed to have a mama and papa Gio. They're chatty again." Rockeh Gio's.
"Haha... Time is Gi. Nothing, let the house be crowded and Gio not lonely. Oh yeah Gio and Mikko had lunch?"
"Udah Ki." Said Mikko lightly who just answered the plot from Devan. Make it shake, as if knowing if the previous scenario is not like this.
"Ooh." Tweet Kian.
"But it's also the same side dish the rest of last night Ki. It's the usual Devan lunch shopping. But Devan is just coming home now, well than the mending laper we ate it anyway." Sendu Mikko who was really as if sad.
He nodded, and offered to prepare lunch for them. He took off his bag, and put on an apron hanging on the kitchen wall.
Start grappling with some cookware and kitchen ingredients as well. Mikko who happily volunteered to help instead got a plot from Devan. He just clucked and sat back down.
"Yes, I know I can't." Her lips.
Now Devan has changed clothes, joined by Mikko and Gio who are in the living room, sitting while cool on their own. So too with himself.
Fifteen minutes Kian was alone in the kitchen preparing lunch for them and himself too, until finally the food was finished and presented neatly at the kitchen dining table.
"Gio, Mikko, Devan let's eat. I'm done with this." Shouted Kian.
And of course the three men went straight to the kitchen. Sit in their respective chairs. While Kian put a plate in front of them, like a mother who serves her three children who want to eat.
Devan's modest house has only four dining chairs. And fit for all four of them. He sits next to Gio and confronts Devan. While Mikko faced Gio and was next to Devan.
Although the house is simple and minimalist that has two levels but the contents are quite complete. There is a living room that is directly adjacent to the tv room, two bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen is quite spacious. Each room has very complete furniture. Do not forget the ornamental knickknacks in the house.
Now they are preparing to eat the food that is already in front of each other's faces. Mikko and Devan impatiently almost ate the food on the plate. Cah kale, and egg balado do not forget the crackers coupled there. Become their lunch menu. Simple? Sure oes.
"Devan! Mikko! You are all grown up! Set a good example for Gio!" Roceh Kian's.
"Udah. We have washed our hands with the same food as the right hand too Ki. Still wrong, right?" Ask Mikko.
"Yes!! Yes lah. Praying just ate!!"
"Eh.. Aye yes. Sorry brother Mikko ya Gi, brother Mikko forgot. Well even though I ate it was just a look at the taste of the food in front." He said while grinning, but even his legs were on that table got a kick from someone, making him immediately turn to Devan with a confused look.
"Hmm. Let's pray first." Said Kian, who had looked up his hands. Followed by the two people, but Kian stared inside Mikko who was different from them.
"Mik, lo....?" I hesitated a little to ask.
The conscious Mikko stared straight at Kian's gaze, which turned out to be staring at his hand. "He. he.. Sorry Ki's. I forgot to say. I am different for you. I am non muslim. It's okay, right?"
"It's not Mik. I'm just shocked by you. You look like we are. Sorry yes."
"Hahaha, just relax. I even often dikatainan twin Devan if in the race track first. It looks like it's the same klop Devan, besides we've been very long. So many think I'm the same religion as Devan. Not even." Mikko immediately pulled out a necklace hanging from his neck that said overtake.
"Gue salute you guys. Yes, I continued the meal."
The four of them returned to prayer, with three men shaking hands and the other holding hands. Closing my eyes, very fervent in prayer. Who then continued eating.
For the first time Kian can feel the warmth of family. Yes, even though there is no father or mother here, but only the four of them look so harmonious. With Mikko who always invited jokes and laughter, melting ice cubes beside him which then got a laugh from Gio who was beside Kian. Makes Kian smile to see it too.
Honestly, it's been a long time since I felt like eating together at a table with several people. At home he only eats alone, at school? At least with Febbry and Sarah it was when they were still fine.
This was a rare moment for him. Eating with three men who have no blood relationship at all with him, but can feel so peaceful. Makes Kian stop for a moment to notice this moment.
"Ki!! Don't dream. Let's eat, the side dishes are up. Honestly, your cooking is really good Ki. I cook often." Said Mikko who was in her mouth full of food, then turned one of the eggs into a plate Kian. Kian replied with a gentle smile and nodded.
"Officacy of Mikko. Run out of eating just talking." Gio Protests.
"Iya Gi, yes. Forgive your handsome brother, yes."
