ME, YOU, And The Light Novel Book

Early Day

The Point of View Mandalina Dwi Pratiwi

An unfamiliar voice rang out my name repeatedly from the sky where I was standing at this time, a moment later I realized that Rani was waking me from sleep because it had entered dawn. He tried to wake me up by saying:

"Dek Manda woke up dong, Dek Manda woke up already entered at dawn" he said, as his hand also patted my shoulder slowly repeatedly.

Thanks to it I woke up from my night's sleep and immediately said:

"Thank you, brother, you've woken me up, now it's still dawn, right? "

"Yes equally de, now there is still time for dawn prayers, please if the deck Manda directly want to pray, this mukenna is the same alphabet yes." said Kak Rani while putting mukenna and my prayer mat on the edge of the mattress.

"Yes already that Manda want to pray first yes, Kak Rani want to be together?" my words offered to Rani if she wanted to pray together with me.

"Sorry deck, today you still can not pray" said Kak Rani with a disappointed tone because she was in her menstrual period and made her unable to accept my offer.

"Oh yes already that, Manda pray first yes brother" I said as I headed to the bathroom to take ablution.

"Yes deck, if you need anything kaka in the kitchen yes" said Kak Rani as she began to step into the kitchen to make breakfast today.

"Yes" I said briefly before I turned on the tap to fetch water.

Finished ablution I immediately put on mukenna and perform dawn prayers solemnly.

After that I read some Surahs of the Qur'an to calm and keep my heart today. The sun began to crawl in from the gap of my room curtain right after I finished reading the Qur'an. Immediately I put my holy book back on the top shelf while releasing and folding the mukenna that I used.

I set my feet towards the kitchen to help Kak Rani make breakfast, but it turns out that once in the kitchen almost all dishes for breakfast are ready to be served at the table. So I complained to Rani, saying:

"Well, brother Rani, I've finished the cooking when Manda will help" I said while pulling one of the chairs at the dining table for me to sit down.

"Oh, I'm sorry de Manda, because I think dede is still long worship, so kaka cepet-cepet nyelesein deh cuisine, so dede can directly breakfast." said Kak Rani in a soft tone responding to my complaint.

"Yes, brother, even though I would learn to cook with Kak Rani loh." said I was disappointed while looking at Kak Rani.

"Hmm, so Dede Manda wants to learn to cook yes, what is it until dede wants to learn to cook?"

"There's nothing, sister, just as a woman, it's like it's not good until I can't cook at all, right? "

"Yes sister, so please if you want to cook again can call Manda to help ya."

"OK deh if so dede dear Mandaku." said Kak Rani with a nosy tone while staring flirtatious at me.

"Have you ah brother, don't be too exaggerated if you call me, just called Manda is enough for me." I said in a low tone as I began to turn my eyes towards the dishes that were already available at the dining table.

"Why de, when you are spoiled with you."

"Yes, sister, it can be done later, now we eat first yes" I said as I began to take the plate to start breakfast.

"Oh yes, please dede breakfast first yes or kaka want bribe nih." said Kak Rani offered her kindness who wanted to spoil me.

"It doesn't matter, what's important now is that you can have breakfast with me too."

"Hmm, then sorry de kaka want to nganter food to the father, keep all the plants first, so you eat yourself aja ya." said Kak Rani refused my offer subtly.

"Loh then why dongga kaka invite Pak Yono to make breakfast with us, then we can watered the plant after breakfast right?" I said to give advice so that Rani can still have breakfast with me.

"Hmm, is dede really serious about breakfast with kaka and Yono sir?" said Kak Rani with a hesitant tone to me.

"Yes, sister, I have no problem making breakfast with Kak Rani and Pak Yono, because you two already consider my own family rich in this house." I said calmly explaining the reason for my offer just now.

Rani smiled at me before finally saying:

"We are very grateful for the thoughts of Deck Manda about the existence of us who work in this house yes, thank you very much for considering us as part of the Manda Deck family itself." said Kak Rani while slightly bowing her body towards me as a sign of gratitude.

"Haduh, already do not have to be too formal that way, I also want to thank you very much kaka family who already want to help in this house."

Once again Rani smiled faintly after hearing my speech, she responded by saying:

"Yes already so if you excuse me to call Mr. Yono first yes" said Kak Rani as he began to step foot to look for his father.

"Okay sister if so Manda wait ya." I said in a friendly tone while looking at Kak Rani with a happy expression.

The circular finger cue that Rani made by combining the tips of her thumb and index finger became a clear signal that she understood the speech I just said. Shortly afterwards I, Rani, and Pak Yono had gathered at the dinner table to start breakfast today. After we read the prayer led by Mr. Yono, we then ate various dishes that had previously been made by Kak Rani as a breakfast menu today.
