"Emmhh... Ra's. Can you ask?"
Ara turned her head, and looked nervously, as the Clouds were looking at her intently.
"A_what's Brother?" ask Ara stammered.
"What are you ma..."
"Sister Ara, Brother Awan look, Anggi bring what for you two?"
The clouds, hung the question he asked Ara, because of Anggi's sudden arrival.
"People bring gulali for Brother Ara and Brother Awan as well." Again Anggi said, because the question that no one answered.
One by one, the gulali in the hands of Anggi, moved into the hands of Ara and also Awan.
Gulali is one type of snack that may be, favored by many people, especially children. This sweet snack is made from sugar-based ingredients that are generally given additional food coloring to make it look more attractive. In Indonesia, this sweet-tasting snack turned out to have quite a lot of types and in a beautiful form.
As it is now given to Ara, it is heart-shaped. As for the Clouds, Anggi gave her in the form of a rose.
And as for Anggi himself, he held two gulalis, with the shape of trumpets and fireworks.
"Emhhhh, go back to the Deck" said Awan, when he saw the gulali given to Ara.
Anggi and Ara did not know what the word Cloud meant. But when the gulali in Ara's hands, asked by Ara just found out. Anggi, of course, does not know.
"If this is how?"
The clouds gave the rose she had in her hand, to Ara. While the heart gulali that was in Ara's hands, he took.
Anggi clapped his hands, as Ara smiled while covering her mouth, with one palm free.
"Maybe?" ask the cloud, ask for certainty.
"Remain, do you know what Big Brother's question means? You see, you can't talk directly." Clouds, again said, to explain the reason for changing the position of the gulali.
"Yes Brother. Ara's heart asked for Brother Awan, right?" tanya Ara, translating the sign language created by Awan, through a scroll of hearts and roses.
The clouds smiled to themselves, then nodded at the answer in the form of a question from Ara.
And the nod of the Clouds, made Ara look down embarrassed, because she felt very happy, but also did not know how to express her own feelings at this time.
"Horay..."
Ara and Clouds, quickly turned their heads towards Anggi, who suddenly shouted in excitement for no reason, in front of them.
"So, what's wrong?" ara asked confusedly, as Ara cheered in excitement.
"Sir Ara is dating again. Long time ago Anggi did not see Brother dating. Hooray..."
"Ihss... Grandpa!" Ara almost pinched her cheek Anggi, but unfortunately, Anggi stood up quickly, so Ara failed to pinch her cheek.
And Ara ran to call her mother, Anjani, telling her that now her brother was dating Awan again, and not Nanda's sister.
"Mothers, Brother Ara and Brother Ara are dating!"
This Anggi shout, made everyone including the restaurant visitors who heard, turn their heads.
"Sad. It's not at home, don't scream." Anjani advises his son, Anggi, not to be alone, by shouting at will.
But mama Amel, actually smiled at the scream Anggi earlier.
'Hopefully, the Clouds can make the most of this meeting time, with the best of it.'
Mama Amel hoped that her grandson would no longer keep all his feelings, towards Ara.
"But really Bun, look!"
Anggi showed the gulali in his hand, which had been four and now only two.
"What do you mean by Adek?" asked Abhimanyu, who had just been silent, watching his children.
Finally, Anggi retold, what he saw earlier, while giving heart gulali and roses to his two brothers, Ara and Awan.
"Grandfather," called Ara, sulking.
"Ihhh, Dad. Oh.huh..." Ara complained to her sister, to her father, Abhimanyu. Ara sulked like a child, at her father.
"After that, let's sit here again" Abhimanyu asked Ara, and stopped the two children's quarrel.
The clouds, which were stepping from behind her Ara, only smiled, then sat back down to her own seat.
Mama Amel held her grandson's hand, gesturing for a question.
And the Clouds, just nodding, looking up at her.
To calm his own heart, Cloud drank his drink, a mouthful.
"Oh yeah, Ara's off this week right?" mama Amel asked, Ara.
"Yes Oma."
"Jani, you have no show tomorrow-tomorrow?"
Now, Amel's mother instead asked Anjani, who was sitting next to him.
"There is no Ma. Just a normal activity, pick up Anggi, but just get to the front of the apartment."
"Lho, how is it just in front of the apartment?" mama asked Amel confused.
Mama Amel does not know, if Anggi went to school, was picked up by the school bus.
After Anjani explained, finally mama Amel nodded in understanding. "Oh, good then," said Amel's mother, nodding.
"That means, tomorrow-tomorrow we can come to the apartment right? If the cloud had no activities on campus. Or, we can go to the mall, or take a break at the Missions, if Anggi also has a school holiday."
Proposed mama Amel, make Anggi excited. He immediately asked his mother to agree to the proposal from the oman Awan.
"Yes Bun. Anggi agreed with Oma's proposal. Isn't it sister?" anggi said, asking her sister, Ara, for her support.
The clouds nodded faintly, as Ara looked towards him. Then Ara nodded in response to a question from her sister.
"Yeeee..."
Anggi again exclaimed happily, because he could go back for a walk, or vacation to his family mension Awan. Although in fact, Anggi has never visited the ministry.
But Anggi can already imagine, how the state of the Missions. Because he often gets stories from some of his classmates.
*****
In Indonesia.
Nanda is done with the exam. And now, he was preparing to take a vacation first to the village, before the school breakup.
The bag he was going to bring, was ready. Likewise with the train ticket, which will take him home to his hometown, he continued, Aksan.
Drett drett...
Drett drett...
Nanda's cell phone is shaking. And there is the name of his father, Wawan, on the mobile phone screen.
..."Yes Pa, what is it?" ...
..."Nda, help papa find a rented house."...
..."Mean Papa?" ...
..."Papa's been kicked out with Mami."...
..."Why?" ...
..."Papa doesn't know Nda. Suddenly he got angry, and threw away Papa's clothes."...
Nanda was silent for a moment, hearing the words spoken by his father, Wawan.
He felt that something was going on, between his father, and his mother, his current wife.
..."Nda?"...
..."But Nanda wants to go here Pa."...
..."Go where?" ...
Nanda was silent and did not answer the question. He did not want to say that he wanted to go back to the village, to visit his family, who is now in his hometown.
..."Come on Nda, help Papa. Later the money Papa transfer Nda."...
..."But, Nanda train ticket, three hours Pa. Find it yourself, close by, can't Pa? Or, look in a place that Papa knows from acquaintances."...
..."Where to go, how to take the train?" ...
Nanda flirted, for he was almost caught, if he was going to go to the village.
..."Nanda wants to check the campus in Bandung Pa. Kan Papa asked Nanda to study in Bandung only." ...
..."Hemmm... Can't really help this Papa you?" ...
..."Yes Pa. Sorry." ...
..."Yes be careful." ...
Click!
"Huhffl..."
Nanda breathed a sigh of relief, after the phone was closed by his papa, Wawan.
"What else happened to papa? there's no way my mom's going to drive him out, if she doesn't act."
Nanda let out a long sigh, remembering all his papa's behavior again, in the past.
