Meet Friends



"The moron!" Karel reflexively cursed as Gavin's body suddenly lurched before his eyes when the room door was opened. The man complained in pain, rubbing his head against the marble floor.


Behind Karel's body, Kalea was no less surprised. She hurriedly ran over to Gavin and helped her husband to get up.


"sickness..." Rengek Gavin when he managed to stand up. He looked at Kalea grimly, pitting like a five-year-old boy who had just been colonized by his friend.


Looking at Gavin's behavior that changed one hundred and eighty degrees from usual, Kalea could only turn a lazy eyeball. Then, with all her heart and humanity at heart, Kalea rubbed Gavin's head. It turned out that it made the owner of the head act more annoying. Instead of stopping whining, Gavin rested his head on Kalea's shoulder. Ndusel is like a kitten looking for warmth.


"I see it shit." Cibir Karel while crossing. He squinted his eyes, staring at Gavin dislike who only Gavin responded by sticking out his tongue.


Oh, want revenge apparently. Inner Carrel. But he doesn't have enough energy to deal with Gavin's childish behavior right now. He had to fill his stomach which began to rumble because it had directly run here without caring about the cry of Ibun who told him to eat breakfast.


So Karel turned his eyes to Kalea. His gaze instantly changed as his net was rubbed against Kalea's. Smile slowly lurking. A smile that is too sweet to make his interlocutor overdose.


"Want to eat kimchi fried rice, right?" bargained for.


"Now. But I don't have any kimchi stock anymore."


"We order it." Karel was already preparing to get the phone out of his pants pocket, but Kalea quickly interrupted.


"Ih, but eat your stuff."


Karel seemed to think for a moment. Then, a brilliant idea flashed through his head. If it could be visualized, now there was a brightly lit bulb above Karel's head.


"If so, we go to the supermarket first, buy kimchi."


Kalea nodded in agreement. That fast, without taking much time to think. In an instant, Gavin's existence was just like the last wind. Kalea no longer paid any attention to Gavin, who was still resuscitating his head on her shoulder, making the man snort and glanced back at Karel.


"Kallll. My head still hurts." Whine again to grab the attention of Kalea. But his efforts failed because instead of rubbing his head again, Kalea actually pushed his head slowly away from his shoulder.


Gavin stared in disbelief at Kalea, who was met with a flat gaze by his wife.


"I forgot, you still have to keep a distance of two meters from me." Then, Kalea walked out through the door. Followed by Karel who had poked his tongue with a song look that made Gavin very eager to raise his fist.


"Fuck." Gavin growled softly after the figures of Kalea and Karel moved away from him.

"You want to add meat, right?" karel asked as they walked past the meat shelf. The trolley he pushed was already half full, filled with groceries that most of them had not planned in advance.


Initially, Karel only wanted to buy kimchi and chives. But after they walked past the fruit shelf, Karel immediately caught fire and put some kind of fruit into the trolley. Kalea who had been walking on the side of Karel was also no less chaotic. As they walked down the snack aisle, Kalea also happily stuffed some sweet and salty flavored biscuits into the trolley.


"Can." Kalea answered after putting two packs of chicken fillet breast into the trolley. The plan is he'll cook that chicken breast tomorrow.


"okay." Then Karel put two packs of beef into the trolley. After that, they walked hand in hand towards the cashier.


Kalea looked at the cell phone in hand. Half a ten. In this case, they are no longer preparing breakfast, but also all lunch. But it's okay, the important thing is there is still food intake that goes into their stomachs because today they need a lot of energy to pick up Mama and Papa at the airport.


While Karel was in line, waiting his turn to pay, Kalea covered near the exit. He stood in a corner that did not block people's traffic while playing his phone.


Kalea is playing mobile. Until his attention is drawn when he feels the tip of the shirt he is wearing is pulled several times.


Kalea turned her eyes, looking down to check who had been tugging at the tip of her shirt. And Kalea's smile grew perfect when she found a four-year-old girl smiling broadly at her.


"Hello, Sierra." Sapa Kalea while crouching to equalize her body position with Sierra.


"Hello, Brother." Sierra say hello. A neat row of white teeth is on display, making Kalea chuckle when she found the rest of the chocolate littering Sierra's rabbit-like front teeth.


"You've eaten chocolate, haven't you?" ask Kalea. Sierra nodded in spirit.


"Yes! Oma the loving. But if you knew, Sierra would have been scolded." Sierra explained in detail. From there, Kalea was able to capture that Sierra did not come with the Taruna. The person Sierra calls Oma may be his mother Taruna, or it may be his mother-in-law.


"Sierra came here just the same as Oma?" ask again while tidying strands of Sierra hair that dangles covering the eyes.


"Yes. I'm busy working."


Kalea. "Keep, where is Oma now? You're no longer separated from Oma kayak when you're separated from your father, right?"


"Oma is in line to pay for groceries. Sierra is not separate from Oma, really."


"Thank God." Kalea heaved a sigh of relief hearing the speech of the boy before her.


Soon, Kalea heard a female voice calling Sierra's name. Turning her head, Kalea found a middle-aged woman with short black hair standing three steps ahead of them. The woman wearing a batik dress looked carrying two bags of groceries and was staring at Sierra with affection.


Kalea also rose. Greeting the woman politely and berushaa showed a friendly smile.


The woman returned her smile then stepped closer towards Sierra. "Sierra knows this brother?" ask the woman.


Sierra nodded as well. "Know. This brother is Sierra's friend."


"Oh, Sierra's friend, yeah. Introduce, I'm the Goddess, Omanya Sierra."


"I'm Kalea, Auntie." Kalea was a bit hesitant when she mentioned the word Aunty. I don't know if he can call someone new. Because honestly Kalea does not know which is a polite designation to use.


"Hello, Kalea. Thank you, yes, for being Sierra's friend." The woman smiled kindly again. "But we have to go home now, Sierra I haven't fed you yet. If his father finds out, I'll have a scolding. So, excuse us, yeah."


"Oh, yes, Auntie. Please." Kalea moved quickly to open the door so that Sierra and his oman could get out. There was an officer standing at the door and ready to open it.


"Be careful on the road, Auntie." Kalea said before the woman took Sierra to the car that had just parked in front of them.


"Thank you." Say the woman. "Sierra, the chest used to be the same as her brother."


Sierra also according. With an excited spirit, the boy waved to Kalea. "Bye, Brother!" then Sierra jumped up into the car followed by his oman.


"Bye, Sierra." Reply Kalea. Then the car drove. Leaving Kalea with a slowly warming feeling.


Shortly after the Sierra car's departure, Karel showed up and put a brief pat on Kalea's shoulder.


"Go ahead, let's go." Karel then walked ahead to the place where his car was parked.


Kalea followed with a happy heart. Apparently, meeting with Sierra can cause this great effect. Ah, maybe he should ask permission from Gavin and Taruna to occasionally take Sierra to play.
