Ruko is so lonely. Employees were put off until Rangga and Mario recovered. However, Rangga who is already licensed to stay at the shop does not feel good to be silent. Rangga was struggling with a pile of boxes of customer orders shoes via olshop when Alenna came to the shophouse. Rangga was so late in his activities that he did not hear Alenna's greeting.
"Duh, Mas Rangga is like a child, huh!" chirps Alenna just arrived.
Rangga turned his head and looked at Alenna strangely. He didn't understand Alenna's intentions.
"Little boy? I've grown into Alenna's man. My body is heavy, right!" Rangga instead showed off his sturdy arm to Alenna.
Alenna was stunned to see Rangga's burly muscles. Alenna was fixated, silent for a moment while swallowing her saliva. Shortly after, Alenna woke up.
"iii. Mas Rangga is like a child because it is wayward!" exclaim Alenna. He put down the food he was carrying and walked over to Rangga.
"Rubber?" Rangga still doesn't understand.
"Yes, recalcitrant. I was told to take a break and work!" alenna protest.
Rangga only understood when Alenna explained. Spontaneous Rangga grinned the horse and scratched his head that did not itch.
Alenna took a topical medication for wounds and bruises on Rangga's face. Gently, Alenna began to take care of Rangga.
"Alenna, sorry. Can you pull back a little?" Rangga in a typical tone asked politely.
Stopping applying the medicine, Alenna looked at Rangga in surprise.
"Retreat? Is my beauty missing?" Spontaneous Alenna said so.
"It's not. Anu .... Em, that's it!" Rangga pointed towards Alenna's lips carefully.
Alenna's eyes blinked quickly. She was a little shocked as Rangga pointed towards her lips.
"Why with my lips, Mom? Does the color of my lipstick bother Mas Rangga?" ask Alenna bluntly.
Rangga smiled awkwardly. He was not happy to explain. His current position with Alenna remains the same. Their faces are too close.
"No! Anu, that. Em, the smell ... petai," said Rangga in the end.
"Astaghfirullah," cried Alenna.
Alenna shut her mouth. Suddenly he remembered not brushing his teeth. This morning, he ate a petai. Hurriedly Alenna retreated and immediately ran towards the bathroom on the second floor.
Alenna's silly behavior made Rangga laugh.
"The boss' sister is cute too" Rangga said.
He took over the dope that Alenna brought. He looked at the mirror and started rubbing the medicine on the wounds and bruises on his face.
"Ah," cried Rangga withstood the pain.
Rangga nodded his head remembering everything. It fell down the stairs. It should have been her who was hurt because her love was rejected instantly. Uh, this is even her languishing face.
"Fate!" Rangga cursed himself.
While Rangga was self-medicating, Alenna was busy brushing her teeth in the bathroom. No half-hearted until twice brushing your teeth with mint aroma toothpaste.
"Well!" Alenna checked the scent of her breath.
Alenna's confidence returned after making sure her breath was fresh. She fixed the headscarf she was wearing, then came out of the bathroom.
"Mas Rangga, it doesn't smell!" alenna said with a cheerful smile.
"Hehe. It's done too. I also took the medicine. Thanks for the medicine, yes. Looks like my face is better" said Rangga.
"What's better. Tuh, Mas Rangga's eyes are still bonyok. Blisters near the lips and cheeks are still clear. Looks like my brother's using energy in emotional time!" gerutu Alenna, not out of thought with her brother.
Rangga smiled. He had no words to reply to Alenna's words. He can't blame Mario either. However, everything happens because of misunderstanding.
"Is that food for me?" ask Rangga.
"Oh, yes. This is for Mas Rangga. Sorry I came a little afternoon. I still have to send the file to the office. Come, eat!" Alenna enthusiastically prepares food for Rangga.
Vegetable soup, fried chicken, rice, and crackers. Rangga was so greedy to eat it. He occasionally gave his thumbs up, praising the dishes Alenna brought.
"Who does Mas Rangga live with?" alenna asked while waiting for Rangga to eat.
"My mom and my two sisters are still in school. My father is gone" said Rangga.
Alenna. His attention could not be separated from Rangga who was devouring his food. Eating without a spoon. Rangga used his right hand, even though he knew the soup vegetables were fruiting. However, Rangga still looks greedy eating all the food in front of him.
"Alenna, why is your face so stupid? Same with the boss." Rangga wanted to know.
"This face is so special, because my status is also special." Alenna conveyed it impliedly.
Actually Rangga did not understand, but he decided to just nod.
A few minutes both were silent. There's no chatter. Rangga dissolved in his food, while Alenna still faithfully waited for Rangga to eat while occasionally checking messages on his smartphone.
"Alhamdulillaah," said Rangga once all the food was gone.
"Let me wash the food, Mas." Alenna.
Alenna's hand coincided with Rangga's hand which also intended to take the place of food to wash it. Unintentional, Rangga and Alenna's hands touched.
"Sorry." Rangga hurriedly took off his hand.
Alenna smiled, then took over the food stand.
"I'm going to wash my hands. Here I am a holy one," Pinta Rangga.
"No! The patient should be the same nurse." Alenna blinked one eye at Rangga.
Suddenly Rangga pounded to see the twinkling of Alenna's eyes.
"Duh, the time was over rejected Anjani immediately made fascinated by Alenna, anyway. Conscious Rangga! He's the Boss' sister. Conscious!" Inner Rangga thrashed, trying to resuscitate his mind.
Rangga. He decided to wash his hands. Once completed, Rangga intends to continue his work.
"Well, what do you want to do again?" asked Alenna who saw Rangga was already sitting in front of a pile of shoe boxes.
"You go on," replied Rangga casually.
Alenna is worried about Rangga. Not at all compliant and prefer to work. Alenna grabbed a small pillow nearby, then threw it right on Rangga's chest.
"Rubber! Come on, I'm with Mas Rangga sleeping!" exclaim Alenna.
Rangga. Alenna's words were ambiguous.
Alenna pat jidat. He had just realized the ambiguity of his words earlier.
"I mean, Mas Rangga sleeps alone in bed. I'm with you while sitting on the couch" explained Alenna, straightening things out.
Oh, kirain the Boss' sister intends to tease me. Ah, what the hell is this thought. Conscious Rangga! Conscious! Inner Rangga again thrashed, awakening his mind.
Actually Rangga reluctant, but his body justifies that he really needs a break. Especially the area of the face and abdomen that occasionally feels pain.
"Yep, sleep!" bring Alenna. Duh, how ambiguous again my invitation! Inner Alenna cursed herself.
Rangga tried not to think about the ambiguity of Alenna's words. He said, slowly stepping towards the bed.
"You want to sing a lullaby? My voice is sweet" said Alenna.
"no need. I think I'm really sleepy. What medicine did I take that day have a drowsiness effect?" ask Rangga.
Rangga just remembered with a piece of medicine that he drank earlier after smearing his wound. Alenna gave me the medicine.
"Yes. That's the effect. Let Mas Rangga sleep, no more pain. Sleep away. I accompanied Mas Rangga until my brother came" Alenna explained.
Once he knew Mario was coming, Rangga spontaneously sat on his bed. He's trying to fight sleepiness. He thought, it would be very disrespectful if the boss came but he was cool to sleep.
"That's wayward again. Sleeping spout!" get Alenna.
Rangga was very sleepy. He's not strong anymore. Wants to immediately break his body.
"What medicine was I taking sleeping pills?" lirih Ranges.
Rangga had already laid himself down. Eyes closed. Shortly thereafter, he was completely asleep in his sleep.
Alenna smiled seeing him. The medicine given to Rangga is indeed a sleeping drug. Alenna deliberately, so that Rangga can sleep and not continue to work.
"I'm sorry, yes. It's for your own good" said Alenna.
Alenna enveloped Rangga's body. Stare at Rangga's face that looks unreasonable because of bruising. Alenna's smile expanded.
"Mas Rangga's body is really stocky. How dashing," muttered Alenna while still smiling. "Unfortunately, Mas Rangga once put his heart on Anjani." Alenna's smile changed.
Not long after, his brilliant smile returns as he remembers that Mario and Anjani will soon be together. Indeed Alenna was never jealous of Anjani who had succeeded in making Juno and Rangga put their hearts on him. Alenna realized, the human feeling was unfettered. His heart has the right to be anchored to anyone. However, little did Alenna expect sincere love and affection from someone for herself.
Alenna dissolves into her mind, unaware of the presence of Mario and Anjani.
"Alenna," call Mario to go a few times.
"Yes, wa'alaikumsalam." Alenna surprise.
Mario and Anjani approach Alenna. Anjani has brought a pack of chicken porridge for Rangga.
"The Stomach is sleeping" Alenna said, pointing to Rangga who was asleep.
"I wake up first. The porridge is still warm" said Mario.
Mario was already preparing to step beside the bed to wake Rangga up.
"Don't wake! Mas Rangga won't wake up" exclaimed Alenna preventing Mario.
"Alenna, you didn't do anything to Rangga, did you?" Mario's instincts are so strong, suspicious of his sister.
Alenna looked down while playing her fingers. He did not dare to look at his brother's face. Obviously her brother is a genius, it will be very easy to know what he did to Rangga.
"Alenna," call Mario again.
"I'm just giving you a low-dose sleeping pill. That was already it. Not really the same as Mas Rangga. I just want to see Mas Rangga sleep well. Rest to quickly recover," explained Alenna admitted.
Mario breathes rough. He tried not to rebuke his sister loudly.
"I don't know since when did you dare to play with sleeping pills. I won't ask why. Don't repeat it again. Understood?" Mario tried to advise gently.
Alenna nodded. Honestly, this is the first time. An impromptu initiative that appeared in the middle of the journey towards the shophouse. Alenna wanted to see Rangga sleep. Rest fully to recover quickly. After advice from her brother, Alenna promised not to do the same thing again to Rangga.
"Then, how's this porridge?" ask Anjani.
"Because my condition is almost similar to Rangga's, so I have the right to eat this porridge. Bribe me!" pinta Mario with a meaningful smile.
"No way," Anjani refused gently while smiling sweetly at Mario. "I tell Meli that your attitude towards me is like this. Let Meli lecture you all out. Remember, we're not married. Unauthorized. I don't want to get too close to you. Keep distance!" Anjani spontaneously backed down while still smiling.
"Then, why did you kiss me that time if you didn't want to get close? Let's get married now!" take Mario. Kidding to see Anjani's reaction. However, Alenna scolded him first.
"Chiihhh. Don't be so friendly in front of me, dong. It's not polite to be single!" reproof Alenna. "Mario, you were told to check some documents with dad. Just take your college assignment that two days ago left on my desk." Alenna.
Mario nodded. He also got a call from his father.
"Anjani, let me take you home. Let my brother not tease you." Alenna pulled Anjani's arm to go with her.
"Mario, I'm going home first. Assalamu'alaikum," said Anjani.
"Wa'alaikumsalam," Mario replied as he waved his hand.
Anjani and Alenna leave. Mario did not want to leave immediately because he had to check shophouses, especially customer orders. For a few days he did not check it. Plus now shophouses are closed and employees are closed due to their actions on Rangga.
After a little tidying up the frame, Mario checked the order via olshop with a special smartphone in the shophouse. He sat on the sofa not far from where Rangga slept. Suddenly his concentration was scrapped because he heard Rangga deliriously calling his sister's name.
"Alenna," muttered Rangga, delirious.
Mario is initially indifferent, as no one can control the dreams in one's sleep. However, Rangga again mentioned Alenna's name for the second time.
"Alenna," said Rangga, still delirious.
Smartphone. Mario stood up and approached Rangga who was still under the influence of sleeping pills given by Alenna.
"Alanna. Uhm." For the third time Rangga deliriously mentioned the name Alenna.
What really happened to Rangga and Alenna? Inner Mario.
Feeling that Rangga was no longer delirious. Mario back to the couch. Back late check orderan via olshop. Sometimes Rangga again delirious to say the name Alenna. However, Mario ignored. Mario thought, Rangga was just dreaming, and accidentally delirious to mention the name Alenna.
