This is How It Takes to Live in a Gedongan House

 

This is the first time Aldo has had a really good night's sleep. How not soundly, he will spend the night in a house that is almost like a castle. It turns out that Kim Sarang came from a family that was. Delayedness.

Kim Sarang, a long-haired girl with a near-perfect face - without the slightest acne, is the son of a former South Korean ambassador to Japan. He lived for six years in Japan. No doubt, the 166-year-old girl can read kanji scratches on Aldo's scarf.

Aldo rested in one of the empty rooms in Kimi's house; there were approximately five empty rooms that mostly functioned as bedrooms. You could say the room that the man occupied was not too broad, but also not too narrow. The room was on the second floor; so close from the stairs that led to the attic.

With his eyes still finding it difficult to widen as wide as possible, Aldo's eyes began to explore all corners of the room. Although Kimi said, this room is rarely occupied, this place is still maintained. Ondol and its heating system work amazingly. He can sleep without his teeth having to grumble. When he first entered, he found no dust or cobwebs. Kim said: "Abeoji said, although rarely occupied, cleanliness must still be maintained. Even the warehouse, according to Abeoji, still must look neat and clean from dust. Looks like Abeoji really hates what's called dust."

Aldo was alone. He felt, Kimi's Abeoji was so similar to his mother in Tangerang. Mama did that too. Always talking about the cleanliness and neatness of the house. Anyway the house should always be neat, should not be messy. The table as much as possible should be clean of everything - other than pots, ashtrays, and tablecloths - as well as from stains. The floor should be clean also from dust or footprints or pedestals.

Hi-hi-hi, weird too. Instead, he found a figure that was so similar to Mama while away and the figure was a man; not a woman.

Oh well, Aldo is really curious about Korean television. No, not physically. Physically, television in Korea is certainly not much different. Just look at the television in the room. This 21-inch television is also the same as the one in the middle room. The brand is also the same; both brands are Toshiba. Only, what Aldo wanted to know was the contents. The man shuffled towards the closet where the television was placed. He took the remote control, went back to bed, and was busy sifting through the canals.

Ah, this is more or less the same as in Indonesia, he thought after moving from one channel to another. There are rumors, there are music shows too, there is also political news that is no less heated than in Indonesia. Even the political news is so great. It seems that every news event in this country is so busy covering bilateral relations between Korea and Japan. Especially when it comes to the case of the seizure of the island.

The difference with in Indonesia, maybe the canal in South Korea is much more. In Indonesia, as he recalled, there are channels such as: TVRI, RCTI, SCTV, Indosiar, MNC, Anteve, Trans TV, Trans 7, Global TV, Metro TV, Net, TV One, JakTV, and more, O Channel, up to Compass TV. Well there are more or less twenty non-paid television stations. Compare that to the canals here. And more. There are: Arirang, SBS, MBC, Chunghwa TV, KBS, JTBC, YTN, Orion, Olleh TV MNet, TVB, TVN, and many more.

Uh, what is this? 

Aldo's eyes were wide. Who would have thought he could find something from Indonesia was being aired on one of the Korean television. Waw. More spectacularly, it was called JKT48. He thought, the appearance of JKT48 was only heard until Japan. It turns out that even in Korea, the idol group was also heard. Thea, her lover, needs to know about this. In a hurry he took the phone in the backpack. Open the browser and...

Oh, my God, someone's coming in. Aldo panic. The television is still on. JKT48 is still on the television. And the one who entered the room was Kimi. The girl chuckled, bobbing heads as well. Look around, even if only wearing pajamas, Kimi is still beautiful. Though his hair is a bit messy and has not been smeared with makeup. The man was so amazed by the natural beauty of a Kim Sarang.

"Well, whoa, whoa," said Kimi. "Still at half-eight in the morning, you've turned on the television and seen the appearance of an idol group. It's amazing indeed the spirit and soul of our wota."

"Bawel." said Aldo. "Like me. There is no ban in this house, I can not turn on the television at this hour?!"

"There is none. Although very sensitive about cleanliness, Abeoji is a democratic person. I just watch it late into the night" Kimi said as he walked closer to Aldo.

"Sok knows you are. I don't really like the dramas here. I think the dramas are too whiny, too selling dreams, and too unreasonable. To be honest, I prefer British television series. One of them, the Sherlock Holmes series."

Kimi's eyes began to move onto something Aldo was holding. The girl was agile to grab Aldo's hand and look at the contents of the man's cell phone. Spontaneous Aldo was so shocked; sweat started pouring down his forehead.

"Having watched the idol group at half-eight in the morning, you are also busy accessing Facebook. The basic Indonesian! His addiction to social media is hard to cure."

"Ngapain snintip-nigtip?" sembur Aldo, who recaptured his phone with considerable difficulty.

Kimi chuckles.

"Did anyone enter a room without knocking on the door?"

"You forgot dad? You're in my house again. So it's up to me to knock or not. I'll come in to take you to breakfast. Abeoji told me too."

"Oh, yes," said Aldo who immediately closed the browser. He stood up and immediately turned off the television.

"Anyway, sorry before, I had a chance to see your Facebook profile. And I see, it turns out you already have a boyfriend? It's in complicated."

 Not covered by Aldo. The man preferred to walk, approach the door, and head straight for the ground floor. Isn't the Kim family dining room located there, so close to the living room.

"You're making a fuss with your boyfriend, huh? I can guess, it must be because of your fanaticism towards 48. No wonder I am. Every woman will be upset with her boyfriend who cannot control fanaticism. Who is a woman who can stand it is not jealous to see her boyfriend keep a lot of photos of beautiful women on his phone" said Kimi, then chuckled loosely.

The girl was getting chuckled at the shape of Aldo's lips bending down. Moreover, the man also replied to the girl's words: "Cerewet you well. It's chatty, you know it!"

"So I'm right?" seductive Kim with a look that really bothers Aldo.

Better Aldo shut up. Kimi will not believe all her stories. Surely this girl will think this guy is having a discussion. After all, how rare was the case of an ordinary person courting a celebrity, an idol. Even if he believes, he is afraid his secret love story with Thea can be revealed soon. Poor Thea would be.
