Hana's stomach almost exploded right now. His favorite chicken dumpling noodles have been transformed into an empty bowl.


"Read no prayer?"


"Read, lah. That's why it's full,"


"Lu was full from eating siomay too, Hana."


"This is not siomay. It's batagor,"


"Where is. It's called siomay,"


"Cie knows his name. Don't you know?"


Hana chuckles. Arkan did not expect that the girl had a unique sense of humor.


"Eat him acquaintance,"


"Seriously, cave tell ya. It's batagor,"


"Ngeyel is really tenacious one,"


"Apalu, frog?"


In order to prove her opinion, Hana took her phone and typed something there.


"OK, Google. What is the difference between siomay and batagor?"


The guy looked at him in wonder. Is this really Arana Hana? Got a knack for being a comedian too.


"More. Here are some of the differences between siomay and batagor. Let's open it,"


Arkan's astonished gaze was still imprinted on him. The girl was still weighing on her phone while drinking orange juice with a straw.


That girl looks so cute and adorable now.


"Dengerin well. Siomay it, boiled. Batagor it, fried it."


Hana's attention then turned to Arkan and blinked her eyes. He seems to think. The guy just chuckled at his expression.


"Fixes. It's batagor, it was criuk-kriuk. And you can't be sniffing. Or the cave eating your ice cream in the fridge,"


"Kok you know the cave has ice cream in the fridge?"


"Heh, the denger. There's just a cave here just like you. So the stuff that's here, if it's not ours, you, if not the cave."


Somehow Hana felt a little amused when she mentioned the word 'us'. But after that he tried to think rationally and interpret the word with various angles.


Not only tickled Hana's feelings, Arkan also experienced something similar.


"Where? Are you sure you still want to say it's siomay?"


Arkan smiled and Hana put her eyebrows together.


"The man answered, yes. Not smiling,"


Almost his eyeballs jumped out of place due to Arkan's sudden movements. The guy suddenly pressed his cheek with both hands, then pulled his face closer.


"It's so ugly, though,"


Hana pursed her lips and tried to keep her face away. However, the guy pulled his face again.


"Start, ish! It hurts!"


The girl looked at Arkan sharply and hit the man's hand which was still pressing on his cheek.


"Yes, Hana. That's batagor not siomay,"


"Udah, yes. Now pelein,"


Many times Hana tried to pull Arkan's hand to release his face. But basically women lose strongly to men, no change happened as big as he tried to pull the man's hand.


Arkan smiled seeing the futile effort as well as Hana's annoyed face. And sentences,


"My husband, please let go."


Success made Hana's eyes round. What the fuck?


"What, anyway? A lot of want. Just leave, can you?"


"My husband, please let go."


Hana squinted her eyes. This is what happens when two stubborn people are put together. He had to give up. Not because he obeyed Arkan's request, but so that the man's hand would quickly come off.


"My husband,"


Arka raised her eyes and the corner of her lips awaited the continuation of the sentence from Hana's mouth. While the girl looked at him amusedly.


"My husband, please let go."


"The sincere,"


"LET'S GET THE FUCKING HUNT LOOSE!"


"Syuttt!"


The corner of Hana's lips lifted behind Arkan's hand that smothered her mouth. Indeed that is the most powerful way so that the guy is not ignorant.


"It can be counted anything with the neighbors if you shout malem gini. It's noisy, anyway!"


The girl stuck out her tongue. "This helps wash dishes,"


It is quite difficult to carry two bowls, two plates, and two glasses alone. Hana almost dropped a glass that fortunately could still be saved due to Arkan's speed.


"Thankfully the cave is quiet,"


"Luckily tangkep cave,"


"The cave is calm because it knows you're going to tangkep."


The guy shook his head, "Don't push around a lot if you can't. Ask for help, what's the trouble?"


Hana ignored the words and continued pouring dish soap into the sponge, then cleaning the cutlery.


"You don't ask for help to the cave, you don't want the cave to exist."


The girl is still flinching. Does not respond to the word Arkan because it is useless, the dishwasher will not be finished either.


"So, what's the function of the cave here?"


Because the guy kept saying, Hana sighed and turned to look at him.


"True learning, work, find money."


Stupefied.


That's Arkan's reaction now.


Indirectly, she admitted that Arkan was her husband, right?


"Don't help washing dishes?"


"No need. But help nyapu, mopping, just as nyuci clothes."


"Just tenacious,"


The guy bends his lips and Hana chuckles at him. Quite funny to joke with him too.


After finishing washing the dishes, Hana stepped towards the living room and turned on the TV. He rarely watches TV and spends time reading or playing laptop in the room.


That was why, Arkan was looking at him astonished right now.


But, he joined Hana and sat down next to the girl as well.


"Tumben want to watch?"


"Nyamperin tumben?"


Already overwhelmed by Hana's change in attitude, the guy just shut up and grabbed the cushion of the sofa.


Hana plays the TV remote lazily because she does not find a cool show. Finally, she opened the app to watch the drama and started choosing.


"STAY! NEW EPISODE OUT! CRAZY NIH MARATHON CAVE!"


The girl jumped off the couch, ran towards the kitchen, opened the food cabinet, picked up three packs of snacks, and ran back to where she was.


"Don't run. Jatoh, the cave is complicated."


Her hair that was slightly scratched made Hana uncomfortable, finally she took the initiative to tie it up. But apparently, he had difficulty moving because the snack and sofa cushion on his lap was enough to limit his movement.


Seeing that, Arkan said,


"Seek for help, what's the trouble?"


While thrusting a plain black pigtail in front of Arkan, Hana rotated her eyes.


And then reply, "All of you. It's gonna work, right?"


The guy chuckles and grabs the key.


"Gua can't shake, btw."


"I swear, yes."


Hana stared cynically to her left side and was presented with a row of teeth by the guy.


"Leave the cave hair all kept tight, done."


Arkan's hand started touching Hana's hair. That's subtle. Very smooth and cold. And thick. And scented. He got close twice to be able to smell Hana's hair, make sure what it smells like.


"Pake shampoo what are you?"


"Don't take a misty ya, cave hair."


"Why?"


"Don't ask too many questions either."


The guy starts collecting strands of Hana's hair and gulps his own saliva as he finds a new side of Hana that makes him even more interested.


"This guy?"


"Try where,"


Hana took her phone and turned on the camera. Twirling his head looking at every corner of his hair. He was not sure of Arkan's statement.


"Are you sure you can't shake it?"


"This is the first time,"


"Seriously?"


The girl was still twirling her head and occasionally touching her already pigtailed hair.


"ugly? Wrongly? Sick? Is something up?"


"good. Rich pigtails-"


Hana almost mentioned her name. He held up his seat trying to forget his broken sentence. But it looks like Arkan is waiting for the next sentence and urgently,


"Whose pigtails are you?"


"Sister Evan,"


When he wanted to open the snack pack, the guy touched Hana's arm and succeeded in making the girl amazed.


"Why?"


"Lu no angel,"


Then his hand turned to touch Hana's jidat.


"What, anyway? It's not clear,"


"Lu's not sick, is it?"


"Alhamdulillah healthy wal afiyat, aki."


Initially Hana ignores Arkan's probing gaze when the drama has already begun. But over time, Arkan's gaze did not shift and made him more curious than the storyline why the Ghost Mother could live again in the drama.


Finally he diverted his attention from the TV and looked back at Arkan's gaze.


"Why, anyway? That kind of cave, huh?"


"What's going on today?"


"Huh?"


The guy confirmed his sitting position but his gaze was still loyal to Hana.


"Anything. Usually a berserk,"


There was a sense of caution when he said. Fear Hana is really rampaging.


"Not today?"


"Noah. Caves have been afraid you are raging cave katain like to mosquito,"


"Appaan, anyway. Funny lu HAHAHA,"


Because it turns out that serving Arkan is not as fun as watching the drama, so Hana returned to the screen beratensi TV.


"Well, you anyway. 13 Minutes out,"


✴✴✴✴✴


Scene after scene passed. Many times Hana wipes her tears and hits Arkan's arm for feeling emotional with the storyline.


"Finally round. Capek is also a crying cave,"


Hana picked up some tissue from her tears and collected it with the junk snack she had spent with Arkan earlier.


That guy's playing cell phones right now. As always.


Something came to Hana's mind as she headed to the trash can and found the food waste she had ordered. Then after realizing something, he suffocated.


"ARCHY!"


The guy darted over to Hana in the kitchen. Could there be cockroaches? Like in the drama.


"Why?"


Arkan found the girl blankly leaning in front of the refrigerator. Then looked at him with pale face.


"Lu why, heh? What's up?"


Instead of answering, Hana instead pulled the boy's hand towards the living room again and sat down on the sofa.


"Why woi? Serem nih cave,"


The girl was still gathering her consciousness and thinking. Breathe in and look at Arkan.


"Lu didn't notice anything?"


"What?"


"What was that pesen?"


"Chicken noodles dumplings 2 equal orange juice 2,"


"That's all?"


"Yes. Look at the app, just use your phone."


"Lu's still unconscious?"


"Why, anyway? Say aja. The cave can't think anymore,"


"WHERE'S THE DATAGOR BATAGOR FROM?!"


Both looked and looked. Feelings of fear, and confusion mixed. Arkan was not even strong enough to smother Hana because of the girl's scream.


"Someone said no, your friend? Deca maybe?"


"Who knows the address of this house? There's no way we're dong,"


"Mama or Dad?"


"Try asking first, okay? You also tanyain,"


"Yes yes,"


Their fingers moved quickly over the screen of their respective phones.


"The cave mama didn't send,"


Hana sighs. Her parents are offline. Are they asleep? The clock showed at 11 and he let out a heavy sigh.


"Well, the phone cave, huh?"


"No bother? It's like this,"


"Rather than the cave can't sleep,"


The girl called her mother. I hope he wakes up across there.


"Hello, son?"


"Hello, Maaa!"


"Why, baby? Not sleeping?"


"Ma, Mama's been sending batagor not home?"


"Batagor?"


"Yes,"


"Where?"


"here. Go to my house,"


"No, honey. It's been filled online pay when you send food again,"


Hana's face was pale instantly. Arkan already knew what Mama Hana answered from that expression.


"Why, son? Did someone send you food?"


"Tomorrow my story. Good night, Mama. Sorry to bother you, I love you."


Hana's choking breath made Arkan upset. So, who sent the batagor? No one knows the address of this house but their parents.


"Now, yeah. Positive thinking first, who knows it's the wrong address."


"Batagornya came with chicken noodles,"


"Positive thinking first, Hana."


"Keep the caves again. Not knowing,"


"Who knows the chicken noodle maker again for sustenance,"


"That's chicken noodle in front of the school shop, right?" Arkan nodded.


"The shop in front of the school is no one selling batagor. The school environment too. It's siomay,"


"That means siomay, Hana."


"No, Arkan. The inget cave batagor. The cave had eaten before but forgot when and who it was,"


"Maybe the bikagor you once ate moved to the shophouse in front of the school,"


"That's the place. Can thirty thousand ride ojol,"


"Who knows what"


"What if it's a terror?"


Hana clasped Arkan's hand tightly. The girl's hands were sweating coldly and the look on her face really made Arkan worried.


"If we are terrorized? What if we were poisoned? I'm abis again..,"


"Hana, look at me."


"Sorry, Arkan. Shouldn't be a rash cave,"


"Look at me,"


"Totally stupid cave shit, anyway? Should-"


"Hana! Look at me,"


The girl gasped and reflexively looked at the smiling face of Arkan then returned the grip of his hand. Arkan's hands are warm. Contrary to Hana's hand.


"Even if we are poisoned, we will read prayer."


Has not been able to eliminate the worry and fear of Hana.


"Even if we're poisoned, we both die."


Success makes Hana's eyes block and scream, and,


"GUA BELOM WANTS TO DIE YOUNG GODDAMN!"


"Syuttt!"


Arkan again smothered Hana's mouth. Intention was only joking, yet it seemed that the girl was really being serious.


Their position is a little ambiguous as Hana's body rests on the sofa with Arkan in front of her. Do not forget the distance of their faces that are very close.


"Even if we were poisoned, the poison must have reacted from there. It's been 3 hours, Hana."


Arkan's intense gaze was different this time. Like making Hana sure of every word the guy said.


"Fresh it first,"


Hana takes Arkan's hand off his mouth and pushes the guy's body away.


"Now rest, deh. Tomorrow morning at the school again,"


"WHERE CAN THE CAVE REST! IN THE DALEM BLOOD FLESH CAVE THERE IS A MYSTERIOUS FOOD!"


"Syuttt!"
