M.A.A.P (White Ash Time)
Chapter 8's
*- Ari -*
That day was Sunday, I had made an appointment with Rian transfer student who had become my friend with Randi at his house. The plan is to study together to prepare for university entrance. At 9 am Randi already at my house, the plan we want to go there. It turns out that his house is still a complex of the same school.
Arriving at his house, we hit the bell and came the girl from inside the house. ‘cantik’ was the impression I got when I saw her. I just remembered that it was Rian's sister, I was told in the cafeteria the other day. Wearing a hijab at home, too.
“Please sit down. I call Mas Rian.” said his sister Rian.
I saw that she was friendly and unlike other girls I knew, when I squirm I was immediately pretentious. His sister Rian looks cute and quiet, she looks absolutely not interested in me.
I followed her every move, I wondered what her true nature was. Suddenly Randi surprised me and warned me not to play around with her sister Rian. Yeah I know that, Rian's a good guy. But I couldn't shake my curiosity in his sister.
Her face is actually standard, not beautiful and ordinary, but somehow when I squirm her, she is different from other girls. I will try to get to know him more closely.
The unexpected thing, Andi came to Rian's house with a break. Rian also seems to be familiar with Andi, they are familiar, he also nyariin his sister Rian, what they really are.
*----*
“Yan, Andi often play here ?” ask Ari.
“Yes, he often studied with Rani, they are one class because.” replied Rian casually.
“Yuk we continue learning..” added Rian.
Andi who told Rian if Rani was in the backyard directly there, he saw from behind Rani was seriously doing her job while listening to music with headphones. Andi tried to surprise him from behind.
“Waah !” yelled Andi from behind while looking beside Rani.
Rani who was focused was shocked and took off her headphone, she was anxious with Andi who often surprised her.
“Ih you Di.. kesingan ya make me surprised !” Rani looks upset but she smiles.
“Hehe sorry, anyhow serious you.. again understand what the hell ?” andi asked while sitting next to Rani.
“This, english assignment, you already ?”
“Oh this, I already know it was malem.” replied Andi santi.
Rani was surprised and surprised, it turns out Andi is finished. ‘bener-ener diligent nih son.’ guman Rani.
“What Ran ? What did you say just now ?” ask Rian confidently.
“What the heck..your ear is yes.cepet very tengernya.” Rani tries to shift the conversation, she's ashamed of herself.
“Iya dong.don't underestimate me Ran.”
They laugh together, Andi often prank Rani with jokes and it makes Rani happy, in addition to the school that Irma has, at home there is Andi who accompanies her.
“Oh Yes Ari it's Rian's friend ?” ask Andi.
“You know In ?” ask Rani.
“Iya, my upperclassman was also the time of SMP..” replied Andi with a little lazy.
Rani becomes suspicious of Andi's expression
“Why you ? There is the same problem Ari mas ?”
“There is nothing Ran..”
“Oh yaudah if that is so. I myself also have not been acquainted with the person.” replied Rani with indifference.
It's true that Rani is not so interested or see handsome or not guys, as long as the person is good, Rani will be happy to want to be friends.
“Oh yes Ran, next week I have a basketball game, you watch yes.” take Andi.
“Ready, I'll take Irma dn Mas Rian.”
“Yeah later you guys don't forget about me hehe..’
“Ready.quiet in..” replied Rani happily.
The clock shows at 11 pm, Rani goes to the kitchen to prepare lunch for
everyone, Andi berinisative help Rani.
“I help ya Ran..” Andi immediately took over frying the side dish.
“Oke Di.. if so I ready his vegetables.”
Andi was used to helping Rani cook when there, their father was also used when Andi visited. It just so happened that Mr. Hari was having business so he would go home in the afternoon.
When Rani and Andi cook in the kitchen, there are a pair of eyes that observe them, namely Ari who has just come from the bathroom. ‘they look familiar even though only a few months’ inner Ari.
Rian went into the kitchen to see his sister who was cooking,
“Udah ready Ran ?” rian asked while eating the fried tofu that was still warm.
“It's the boss, I'm taking it to the dinner table.” replied Rani.
“OK, Andi you eat together also yes.” said Rian.
“Iya Mas. sorry yes every time ngerepotin.” said Andi.
“Sa relax aja mah if here In. kayak where aja.” replied Rian relaxed.
Andi helps Rani prepare food at the dinner table, not long after lunch is ready, Rian invites his two friends to lunch together.
“Lunch first yuk... it is ready at the dinner table.” said Rian.
Ari and Randi nodded and followed Rian to the dining table. Rani and Andi are already sitting there. They also started eating. While eating they chatted about school.
“Hehe Yes Mas.. I often play here because.”
“Where is your basketball ?” Ask Randi.
“Next week there is a match Mas. watch yes.”
“Ready, later you announce the place.”
Andi looks happy that anyone wants to watch the game and be encouraging. While Ari is only silent and occasionally laughs, she is more focused on paying attention to Rani.
“Ehm Rani if there is something you do not understand, you can ask me or Randi about lessons.” said Ari.
“Oh Yes Mas.. thanks.” replied Rani politely.
Andi was astonished by Ari's attitude, not usually he was like that. He just kept quiet and continued eating. After finishing lunch, Rian invited Ari and Randi to relax while watching tv, Andi joined as well while Rani was still washing dishes.
The sleepy Rani finally goes to the room and takes a nap, while the guys start playing games for entertainment. They play the game Pes and sound crowded, Rani in the room fortunately did not hear it.
While busy playing, suddenly Hp Ari rang, Andi who was sitting not far from Rian glanced at a glance at Hp Ari appeared the name Selvi. ‘hm..’ Inner Andi.
“I am going forward for a while yes want to pick up the phone.” said Ari.
Rian nodded. Arriving at the terrace Ari lifted a phone from Selvi.
“Halo..” saya Ari.
“Halo Ri..where are you?” ask selvi
“I'm again at home temen.. What's the Cell ?”
“Jalan yuuk.. bosen me at home.” invite Selvi.
“OK, just let me run this otw to your house.” replied Ari with enthusiasm.
Ari looks happy that Selvi called her, so she needs some entertainment too. He immediately searched
reasons to go home.
“Yan, today is learning it already ?” ask Ari.
“Udah Ri. if too force the brain feels hot, hehe.”
“I go home first yes. no business..” said Ari.
“OK Ri.. be careful on the road.”
“Eh, how am I ?” ask Randi.
“Ayuk together if so.”
“OK deh, Yan I'm back all of you yes. sometime I come here again.” said Randi.
“OK ready.”
Rian and Andi drive Ari and Randi to the front of the house, apparently they ride in a car. Ari and Randi have driven home and drive, while Andi is still at Rian's house and continues to play games together. Meanwhile, in Ari's car, Randi tries to ask Ari about something that makes him curious since Rian's home.
“Ri.. You are interested in Rani?” ask Randi.
“Ha ? You said what the hell Randi ?” ask Ari back. He is not focused now because he is too happy to be invited Selvi out.
“Ah already.. I know how you like, I just ngingetin do not mess around with his sister Rian.” said Randi.
“Hmm..” Reply Ari briefly.
Randi just sighed at the behavior of his best friend, it never changed. After driving Randi home Ari rushed to Selvi's house. He made an appointment in front of the house, and when it turned out that Selvi had just come out of the house, he went straight into Ari's car.
“Hai Ri..” greet Selvi with her sweet smile.
“Hai Sel... so beautiful you are today.” praise Ari.
Selvi smiled sweetly, she now wears a short-sleeved shirt and wears a long cardigan, a knee-length skirt with unraveled hair, a thin makeup that still makes her beautiful. Ari drives her car to a karaoke place, they often go there to spend time together when they are both lonely. Yes, their relationship is only a friend but they are very close and have a mutually beneficial relationship.
Arriving at the karaoke place, after getting off the car Selvi wrapped his hands on Ari's arm casually. They went straight in because the karaoke place still belonged to Ari's family. The staff there had also memorized them.
“As usual yes.” said Ari casually at the receptionist.
“Good mas.”
They went straight to the VIP room which is a separate place on the 2nd floor, no one disturbed them, food and drinks had also been delivered there before Ari arrived.
The two of them entered the karaoke room and locked it from the inside. No employee or guest can go to the 2nd floor because it is special for the owner.
“You want to sing what song you are today ?” ari asked casually taking off her jacket and sitting on a long shofa.
“Before I choose first.”
Selvi sat close to Ari while choosing a song. The room was quite spacious, there was a large monitor screen, a long shofa, typical lights karaoke place, music, and others.
Ari relaxedly stretched her arms and hugged Selvi from behind. Ari sees Selvi still choosing the song, her hand plays Selvi's unraveling hair.
“Okay already, let's sing together.” invite Selvi.
“You are so excited Sel today ?” ask Ari curious.
“Pengen play aja Ri.”
They started singing, some of the songs they were singing. Unknowingly they embrace each other and Selvi leans on the chest of Ari's field. Once satisfied, let the song play and Selvi is busy
drank his. Suddenly Ari hugged her from behind and brought her face closer to Selvi. Selvi turned to look towards Ari and they looked at each other..
