I Love You, Ma'am Kunti

new problem

The sky darkened, shifting the time closer to resting time.

In the hall next to Kunia's house, the small family was gathering to enjoy their time having just finished eating dinner outside the house.

Pecel mother-made catfish is truly unmatched.

The spicy, sweet, salty, savory paste blends perfectly in a large stone cobek.

Added warm rice, and medium-sized catfish, with a savory taste that even seeps into the whole meat of the fish, making them even to the point of eating the dish.

As of now, there are already three catfish heads on Kunia's plate, and now? He was preparing to take rice in the third round, no half-hearted he put directly sambal and side dishes and also defaulted to the teflon rice cooker, which still left a little rice in it.

Seemed trembling with his head, seeing his little cousin brother can eat so much.

"Wouldn't your stomach explode, brother?" Ask Dumbly before drinking mineral water from his glass.

"As humans, we cannot eat food. This is my way of being thankful, for the favor of God," replied Kunia who then put a mouthful of rice from her own hands into her mouth, after doing the method of mixing rice with sambal typical of eating shows on TV. While his left hand hugged the teflon rice cooker.

Plaaaakk...

"Aarrhggghhh...!" Kunia cried out in surprise, when a loud bang hit her shoulder. "Mother is really? I'm eating, what if I get caught? I want you to die."

Ms. Sukaesih just kept quiet, she even took the rice cooker in Kuni's hands.

"Bu– I haven't finished eating."

"Be a normal woman, don't be like a starving gorilla...!" Ms. Sukaesih kept her phone away from Kunia who was trying to reach her again.

"But I'm still hungry... Come on, Mom."

"I won't give it...! You're not a woman? Eat it properly." Rentak Bu Sukaesih, so that makes Kunia look towards the father with a compassionate look.

"Bu– give it, let our child eat. While he's still craving." Mr. Gaius, who is none other than the father of Kunia gave a little defense, so a happy smile was emanated on the girl's face. Dad is the best. That is how the heart of Kunia is.

"Dad, can you look at her as she ages?" Bu Sukaesih brushed off Kuni's hand that was about to grab the teflon, while glaring at her son. "Well until when, a child like this is spoiled continuously. He should have started to be productive, could no longer be a burden on the family."

"Mother must consider me a burden on the family!"

"The facts are like that. If not for making it easier for you to find a job? Why is your father sending you high? Basic useless...!"

"Keep mother like that, I hesitated. Am I really a mother's child? Or maybe my mother wasn't really my mother."

Plaaaaunkpunkkkk.... Another blow landed on the shoulder, making Kunia complain of pain.

"Haaaah... It's a good thing my heart is immune, eating the salt acid of life. So your words won't hurt mom, and if you weren't the one who came out of my womb, I would have kicked you a long time ago, why take care of a lazy kid like you. Oh God, my Ngidam was very diligent, even clean dishes until I wash again so it is not usual to be silent. I thought I was going to give birth to a useful child, apparently a lazy girl whose job is just to eat sleep, know like this I better keep a cat." Bu Sukaesih menggedumel, while packing dirty dishes on the couch, with the sound of plates slightly slammed, making Dad did not dare to continue smoking. And would rather help the mother clean up the rest of their dinner.

"Mother is completely inhumane. Why did you get married to your mom?" Bisik Kunia when the mother had entered the house, while Mr. Gaius just laughed and brought the big tear in following his wife.

"I can catch the answer from the expression, Uwa Gaius. And even if I'm in his position I'll agree." Muttering Dumbly, making Kunia's forehead wrinkle, not understanding. "I mean, he'd rather have a fierce wife like Uwa Sukaesih, than have a lazy wife like you sister... Haha."

"Devil...! You ya?" Kunia pelted Dumbar with cucumber still intact. Where the teenage man walked quickly dodged, while laughing with his hands carrying a tray filled with a pitcher of water and several empty glasses. Kunia sighed, too, she rushed to clean her dirty hands and cleaned up the rest of their food that was a little scattered before the mother was growing more and more.

In between his work, he heard the sound of a car that stopped in front of Reni's house, Kunia turned her head back.

"Happy– can walk until night. Huhhhhh... So miss Anwar, he hasn't answered my phone since" muttered Kunia who was still staring back.

There is not clear because it is covered by a fence and some plants make him just smile and then continue his work.

***

In the room.

He sat at his desk, where he studied first. Or his favorite area to play online games on his computer flat screen.

His hands were tapping slowly, gazing at the clear sky outside where the stars were scattered.

A speck of pain he felt in the chest, why? He felt like Anwar had been ignoring him lately. Never reply to chat messages, unless He needs something.

"Spam only?" Loose, he put it down again. For a moment the two eyes condensed, Kunia tried to smile sigh.

"I can never cry just because of this? Isn't his attitude like that? Cuek, but he loves me." He was still thinking positively, calming himself.

Until he decided to call, the love he missed so much.

~ The number you are calling, is busy...~

The world shook fast, could be a signal obstacle, right? Just huckle. He contacted Anwar again, up to five times the call was still busy. Kunia was staring at the window, because her room was facing the balcony of Reni's room, she could see the girl smilingly receiving a phone call from across the street.

Kunia smiled wryly, she lowered the phone that was stuck in her ear.

"What yes? Even though I've been selling, I still have to pay attention to my appearance?" Dunia saw the girl look elegant with beautiful hair, wrapped in pink nightgown with a pattern of white cherry blossoms. Her nice body, as well as her pure white skin were absolutely perfect. Then glanced at himself who only used a t-shirt and color pants.

The world snorted, "it's not wrong, I'm so bad."

He saw Reni seemed to have finished making a phone call with her lover, and went back into his room. "If I were as pretty as Reni? Anwar would be more proud to have me."

Before long, the phone rang.

"aaa... Anwar's? Geez? My heart's poem." The world received quickly with passion. "Hallo?"

📞 "Kuni, sorry. Can you help me again?"

"What?" The spirit of Kunia decreased, because it was not those words that he wanted to hear from Anwar as his opening.

📞 "I'm actually not good at you..."

"Tell me."

📞 "I, need more money. Not much just five hundred thousand."

The girl lowered her head, and preferred to be quiet.

📞 "Kune?"

World's eyes are a little teary. But he tried to hold it.

"If I say I can't, how?"

📞 "Do you not love me anymore?"

"It's not like that, am I?" Kunia bit the tip of her lips. Wh why? you're never sensitive if I miss you, once on the phone just to borrow money. After I transfer you disappear. – want Kunia to say that, throwing her frustration towards Anwar but unable. He was afraid Anwar was angry, he was afraid Anwar asked to break up.

📞 "Kuni, hurry up. I need it now."

"Honest thing? U... My monthly money is running out. So, I can't help you. Last time I sent you seven hundred grand, the week before six hundred. That's actually money to buy a new printer, and you haven't returned it."

📞 "Oh... You want to spend all the money you lent me? You don't believe me, now?" Anwar's tone rose, making Kunia unable to answer him.

"Bu– isn't it."

📞 "Ah... It's already."

"Sister?"

PIC.... The phone call was interrupted, Kunia tried to contact again, still connected but not picked up three times, and the fourth time.

~The number you are going to, is off or is out of range. Try a few more moments ~

"Yes my... Is he angry again? The last time he got angry could be for months not activating his number. Hiks– how is this? Did I just borrow it from Dad? Buty? How long will it be like this?" Kunia raised her legs, then hugged her bent knee later. Crying alone, lamenting this increasingly unclear relationship.
