My little lady today asked for a date together. I was still surprised when she said she wanted a date. Ave accidentally lies to Eyang Yaya to the Bookstore with Ayu and Rani, but it is precisely they who suggest this. Am I fooled too? Sure didn't. I am happy to spend time together. It's been a long time since I've gone or played alone with my little lady.

After us, Akil Baliq the elders namely Eyang Yaya and eEyang Uti forbade us to go or play again together. Our school is separated. Ave was a girls' school while I was in a public school. We only met in the morning before leaving and in the afternoon after school. We were reunited when Ave went to college at the same place as me.

"Salim is dumb, he said" shaking his hand.

I looked at her pretty face and smiled. "It's okay. It's been a while, yeah we didn't go both. Maybe I should be grateful to Ayu and Rani this time," I said.

"True Salim said. At home, someone is watching us both. Mas Bowo, Ms. Mira, her son or Mbok Sum. Make Ave upset," he said full of annoyance.

It's not just me who's bothered by them when we both want to. There was-there was Yaya to keep an eye on us.

"What are we being watched for anyway? La wong we didn't do anything" he continued, still upset.

"It's okay, Ve. The name of the parent will be worried if the child goes alone," I explained to give understanding.

"But we're engaged. Kok still can't go with Salim," his grunts with advancing lips.

"But we still meet every day? Ave can still see Salim at home," I said crisply.

"Oh, yes," he answered cheerfully.

"Let's eat fast. Looking for Eyang Yaya."

Well what I said is true, right? Eyang Yaya called me asking where we were.

"Le, how come you're picking up a bukune shop? Iki wes bengi," said Eyang Yaya on the other end of the phone.

"Yes Eyang. We are stuck in traffic on the streets," said I who turned out to be stuck.

"Oh yo wes. Ati-ati ning street," said eyang Yaya as she hung up.

"Eyang Yaya." Ave smiled knots in response to Eyang's phone.

Today I am really happy to be alone with my little lady.

"Duh, that was dating last night. It must be happy, ", Ayu said when I was in class after class.

"Ah, Ayu could have," I chanted as I cleared up the book.

"Is it true you can go long, Vel equals Eyang Yaya?" Rani asked enthusiastically.

"Ave lied a little bit the same Eyang Yaya. Ave said he wanted to go to the bookstore" I said happily.

"How dare you lie to Eyang Yaya? How will it be found out?" Rani turned her head as Ayu said that.

"No way. I went to the bookstore yesterday." I refute their words. It's true that I went to bookstores and dating, of course.

Dimas and Bhishma had suddenly come uninvited when this was not their class.

"Well, you come here, bus? This isn't your class." Omel Ayu who was taken care of by them.

"How's the decision, Vel? You want to be my wife, right?" ask Dimas to the point.

"So your wife? Don't joke, Dimas. Ave never wanted to be your wife."

"Whatever happens Salim will remain Ave's husband." They really pissed me off.

"Or do you want to marry me? It's good to marry me. You and I will be happy husband and wife with abundant wealth" said Bisma with his bow.

This is again the congek following along.

"Already Vel don't respond to their words." Rani and Ayu took me out of class.

"You can choose between me or Dimas, Vel. Choose one of us!" Shouted the loud bisma that made me careless.

I don't know why Dimas and Bhishma took me to be their wife. Ayu and Rani drove me home because Salim was already working on the Plantation.

It's good to be Salim. He will be at graduation later this month. Unlike the two old congeks that are not at graduation. Ah, I miss him.

"Lo nak Ayu lan Rani. Wiswa suwi ora ning kene," zambut eyang Uti on the terrace.

Ayu the real Palembang people do not understand. Only Rani is able to answer that incidentbene children mixed Malang and Jakarta.

"English Eyang. Kula lan Ayu akeh the task," he replied courteously.

"Yo wis's. Invite'en melebu kancamu, Nduk," continued Eyang Uti let Ave's friends enter.

Although, they often go to Ave's house. No stop they both admire the beauty of Ave house with typical Javanese architecture. There is a pendopinya and at the back door there is another house that is only connected by the pool.

"You have lunch here, yes. Let Mbok Jum prepare later," Ave bargained with his friend.

Rani who is his hobby of eating directly assies.

"Lu was eating what I thought. Good thing your stomach is not fat," Ayu's cerocos saw a happy Rani.

"What are we eating today? Mbok Jum's cooking is delicious." Rani's mind was puffed up.

"Mbok Jum cook clear vegetables, pepes tuna, pepes tofu and sambel terasi," said Ave told.

Rani keburu drooled.

"Avel went to the kitchen. Rani is hungry. Want to eat a lot of caves," impatient xesak Rani.

Ave smiled in response to her friends who were willing to befriend her without seeing her background. Ave immediately rushed towards the kitchen to prepare food for her friend.

Salim accompanied them to eat. Smiling amusedly at the way Rani eats that stifling. Like not eating a week.

"You starved or possessed, Ran?" salim asked jokingly.

"The grotto is hungry, Lim. Moreover, Mbok Jum's cuisine tastes amazing," he said after eating.

"Mbok Jum thanks for the cooking." Ayu and Rani simultaneously thanked him.

Mbok Sum responded with a sincere smile.

"Lim, good yes yesterday go alone," whispered Ayu nosy.

"Hus ... don't rame-rame," Salim warned.

"Quiet down. If you're ama Avel wants a date. Tell me the same with us. Let's be targets." Laughter Ayu who was nudged by Rani so as not to be noisy.

"Gua hope you ama Avel is always happy yes, Lim," said Rani sincerely.

Ave nodded in response to Rani's words.

"Amen." A prayer that was heard only on Salim's lips.
