Ave's Pov

Fortunately, Ayu and Rani brought a change of clothes. If not, I'll ask you all sorts of questions.

"Well, Nduk. Kowe rain?" Well it is true that Mother or Eyang Uti asked me about my condition that has changed clothes. [ Loh, Nduk. You rained?]

"Ave didn't get rained on, Mom. There was a game on campus with water. So Ave got wet, huh." I lied so it wouldn't be a big deal.

Mother glanced at Salim to make sure my words were correct.

"True Ma'am. There was a non Ave with other friends there was a water game." Salimpun.

"So weird your campus, Nduk." Mom clucked weird.

"Mother, Ave is hungry. What are you cooking?" I interrupted Mom's words to not speak anymore.

"Your habits, Nduk. Say hello first to the same. Do not eat constantly," prolonged mother's scolding.

"It's okay, Mom. Ave met Yaya and Uti on the front porch. Hayo ... Miss Ave is hungry." I sulked spoiled on mom's shoulder.

"Mother cook vegetables asem and sambal teri," said the mother briefly.

"That's good dong. Ave wants to eat ah..."

"Cklack. .... Nduks. You want to be a wife and behave like a child." Mother nagged again while heading for the kitchen.

"What's up, Mom?" I emerged from behind the door.

"This is a loh, sir. Your son is like a child. When will his mind grow up?"

I'm the laziest if Mom's been nagging and talking long like a train.

"Well look at that. Mom just told. He's gone instead," snorted the mother in annoyance.

"Yes, let it go. Our son is the most unique himself." I joked to stop talking.

"What kind?"Mom is leaving.

I immediately went to the kitchen because my stomach had rang because I had not had time to eat because of the Gayatri.

"Oh my goodness Gusti! Don't sit in the stall, Non." Someone else was nagging me this afternoon. Mira.

"Yes, Miss Mira is beautiful. Here I've been sitting well" I said lowering my right leg.

"Non Ave is a girl. It's not good to sit like that" said Mira while peeling citrus fruits.

"Yes Ave understood, Mira. Already ah ... Mira don't fuss anymore like mom." I'm getting pissed today.

Mira's mother cleared her throat when she accidentally saw me who was about to take an orange in contact with Salim.

"It's the kasmaran," teased Mbak Mira.

"What, anyway, this Mira. "I'm off.

I don't see Mira and Mbok Jum laughing in the kitchen. I went straight to my room and threw myself in exhaustion.

Salim's Pov

"Salim, let's find bamboo," asked Miss Ave to find bamboo for tomorrow's campus assignment.

"Oh this Salim, yes. You're the chairman of Ospek but you don't know anything." I was happy when I saw him upset.

"You want to help me? If you don't want to. Let me find it for myself."

"No, no, Non. Salim will be angry with Yaya."

"Come on quickly Salim. Rain hunt," his insistence dragged my hand.

If it wasn't for being my little lady. There's no way I'm gonna do what he's told. Sometimes my noni sucks sometimes it's fun. Depends on his mood.

For almost half an hour we searched for bamboo downstream of the river. Although Miss Ave is a rich kid. He never felt disgusted when he let go of his sandals and played in the water. Just like when I was a kid.

He sits on a rock. Stylish like an angel who is bathing. Kick his leg in the water. He does not realize that behind the animal he does not like.

I walked slowly towards him. He looked at me in wonder. When I was near him. I felt his rapid heartbeat.

"Non, shut up, yeah. Don't scream. What did Salim say." I whispered softly so as not to surprise her.

Our bodies almost touched when my hand managed to grab the beast and throw it away.

"Salim has thrown it away.. There's a frog behind him."

A frog? I forgot he was so scared of his name as a frog.

He was surprised. "Mana .. where ..."

Not running to the river. He even embraced my body. I was unprepared because his body immediately scattered, we fell sitting in the water. Fortunately the water is shallow. Otherwise we'll be dragged down by the river. It is above my body. We were silent for a moment like fools.

"Let's go home." He immediately got up awkwardly.

"Eh .. Yes Non." I got up right away from the fall.

We went home in wet clothes.

Author's Pov

All eyes looked at the two people who were walking towards the house. Those sitting on the terrace felt something strange.

"Oh my goodness, cak Ayu. Kowe nang endi anyway? Kok klambi teles kabeh." Eyang Yaya gasped to see Ave and Salim wet everything. (Yes my goodness. Where are we going? Your clothes are all wet)

"Kowe cantaloupe, Nduk?" Eyang Uti is coming.

"We slipped in the river while looking for bamboo." Ave lied.

"Well, is that right, Salim boy?" Mr. Brata asked the truth.

"He Sir. We slipped."

Mr. Brata shakes his head.

"Yes, already. Quickly change clothes. You will be sick" Ambar commanded his daughter and Salim.

Inside her room Ave looks confused by her own feelings. Near Salim he felt his heart pounding.

"Is that a taste of like?" Ave asked himself.

All this time he only liked someone at Junior High. But what he likes is only to consider Ave's sister. Since then he has never liked another man. This time he felt that feeling again. The feeling of vibration that was in his chest.

Has Ave started feeling the vibe of love?
