IF YOU ARE A FOOL

Gudeg The Love

This week is the wedding day of Maryam. Starting from the morning the pesantren family had left their residence. The pesantren looked very lonely.

At first Ummi asked me to come along, but I refused. I didn't feel that important to be present too early.

Ummi asked Siska and I for breakfast in the santri cafeteria, but because I was not used to it and wanted to try a new atmosphere, Siska and I decided to eat at the stalls around the pesantren. There are Jogja-style stalls around here that are famous for being crowded. With a variety of side dishes and not to miss its gedeg which is a favorite of the surrounding residents.

As I was about to close the gate again, my phone rang, Sister Maryam.

"assalamu'alaikum sis" said I

"Kayra, why don't you come with the boarding family? " i was silent for a moment. Such a question, am I not a nobody?

"Kayra, you can hear brother" back voice from bali phone sounded.

"yes sister sorry, Kayra was still washing clothes first, hehe. After breakfast Kayra left yes" I lied, but since when I washed my own clothes. Except for the underwear.

"kakak Ijab at 9. You can't be late" while I see the clock is now almost 7.

"God willing, brother" is just a sentence I said. In my heart I have a long word

"what is the importance of me, whether I am or not will have no effect. Or perhaps, that cousin of sister Maryam has made an announcement to the extended family? ah no, this is gonna be bad"

"Kay, watch the stone" Siska pulled my hand because I almost hit a big rock and it could make me fall tripping.

"astagfirullah" I said spontaneously.

"the nglamun street! your business to be a matchmaker is done. Now it's the matter of the penghulu who will marry" Siska protested.

"revelation, yes too. Maybe I was the one who thought too far" I slipped.

"think what the hell" asked Siska.

And I certainly couldn't have told Siska about what I was thinking. Could be directly in laugh with Siska "your father" so maybe he will call me.

Upon entering the tavern, footsteps were first greeted by Dian et al. But this time with new-faced friends.

Siska was shocked and held my hand. Because I haven't told her about Dian in the least.

"later I'll critain, come on" I pulled Siska's hand in.

Of course, my arrival did not escape the sight of a pair of Dian's eyes.

"how's story? " Siska immediately gave me a lot of questions after we got a seat.

"so bad you are, brisik" I said a little whisper.

"yeah, later if there is nothing with you, I also end up feeling"

I answered with a smile.

"i'm getting better with Dian, it's just that I asked her to shut herself down first. Because he has the same agreement, one goes forward, then all go forward and vice versa.

He's KKN here, this semester he'll finish his script"

"hemp, there seems to be information stored on its own" Siska said.

"not so, but conditions and situations are not yet possible. I'll definitely critain the full version. Now for a meal, you want me to go to Maryam Khan's wedding? "

"ekhm, how about it, no?

it seems that here there is something more suitable for your nemenin to the condangan" Siska began to tease.

"not funny Siska. If you brisik, guaranteed not to get the full story version"

"who. Kayra's angry"

"be told to diem even more brisik. Buruan is eaten"

No doubt, it deserves this place to be a favorite. The cooking shook the tongue. Its layout on the outskirts of the rice fields, making this location as a "stopping place" for people who are cycling.

It looks like shahdu yes, early in the morning cycling on the outskirts of the rice fields. The atmosphere is still beautiful, the air is still fresh. So miss, want to go home Eyang.

"ekhmmm" there is a voice of someone who does not cough but is deliberately rung.

Siska and I looked up at "Dian" Siska and I said together.

Siska is still gawking at the arrival of Dian who is uninvited. While I was holding back a laugh, mana held Dian still with this close distance.

"ekwh" so Siska's wrong.

"not to see artist Sis" I said teasingly.

"just consider a campus artist" huh, Dian can be narcissistic too.

While Siska suddenly choked, coughing spun out.

"well, don't-don't you this is one of my fans" trick, boy huh.

Not to say Dian fans, after swallowing food even Siska and Dian are arguing. Feelings, not the same brother Jo, not the same Dian noisily continues.

"already ah. Hobby really noisily you're Sis" I mediate.

"tau it he.

Once you're friends with him" Already in the middle, Dian even make the atmosphere hot continues.

"Dian already agh, bother people to eat this you. What are you doing here? " otherwise this might not have finished Siska and Dian's mouth war.

"just go ahead" said Dian casually

"basics of lack of work" Siska again interrupted.

"hais, you don't know if anyone else is so cute" Again he said unfiltered.

Instantly I pinched Dian's waist.

How close are Dian and I?

How far do I know him?

Why the more here comes the more silly, gookil, childish behavior, that I see from him.

Because as far as I know, he always tried to be wise, nurturing, advising, warm.

Whether it should be different, when hanging out with friends. And when hanging out with someone he loves.

"don't you come to the wedding of a beloved teacher? " this time I was made to choke with Dian's question.

Lucky help came immediately, the prince sensitized the situation apparently. Soon he brought me a glass of orange water that was mine.

"as there would be willing to be a real favorite" with the tone of Jutek Siska said.

"come here" I answered briefly.

"equal him? " An glanced towards Siska.

"yeah, gini-gyi is luckier than you. It could be the same Kayra every time. Everywhere with Kayra. Sleeping with Kayra. Not jealous of you" want to laugh also hear Siska's words.

"jealous with you? I'm still normal.

You're still normal, aren't you Kayra? " Dian looked at me.

"normal" I replied.

"well, just mean you're not normal" Siska was again cornered.

Before the debate came back, I told Dian to go back with her friends. I can't stay here for long anyway.

"well, greetings from the lecturer. You guys be careful on the road"

Dian was back with her friends, while Siska and I got out of the store by passing them.

Don't know then don't love, at least smile still can be. Never forget the traditions in Java. Even if the heart is only for him, smile as a form of almsgiving.
