Miss Kissable & Mr. Strawberry

Continuing Agenda

After kissing Juleha's hand alternately, the two street-clint children who claimed to be Juleha's students said goodbye. Stay Juleha with his guests who are still standing in front of the house. Juleha was so surprised to see who had come. Did not expect that today he will have many guests from Jakarta, even those who have never been in his shadow. Juleha was stupefied, even so she still displayed her smile on them.

"Who's up, Neng?" asked a middle-aged man who had just appeared on the doorstep.

Juleha somewhat gasped, "This is Sir, Leha's friends from Jakarta."

The father looked and watched the children standing in front of his house. "Yes told to go in or Neng his friends! Come inside!" said the father.

"Thank you, sir." replied Adit politely.

"Assalamu'alaikum." they said as they entered Juleha's house.

"Wa'alaikum salam." replied Juleha and her father.

A few minutes later after Juleha came inside, he returned to the living room with a tray of drinks. He served drinks to his guests, which he did not understand why they were here. Juleha hope, this is not a new problem.

"So.. Juleha is teaching now, sir?" ask Kayla.

"yes, Alhamdulillah. All take package C, Leha tea asked to do as well, help." replied the father.

"You.. Do you know my home address?" confused Juleha.

"We're just like the boarding house where you used to live."

Alex answered, making Juleha more confused and astonished. Is it true this gentleman who seems polite and calm Alex? As Juleha remembered, Alex was the type of person who was indifferent and cold, impressed disrespectful. But the one sitting in front of him was different.

Juleha nodded, "Oh."

"By the way your tea is deliberately coming from Jakarta to see Leha?" ask the father.

"yes sir, especially the four of them." Kayla replied as she pointed at Alex, Bima, Sandi, and Vicky.

Alex cleared his throat before starting his sentence. "So this is how we came here to apologize."

"Sorry?" juleha did not understand.

The father glanced at Juleha, looking at her question, but the one asked was also confused. "Punten den, what's sorry?" tanyakanya.

"On the cause of Juleha suspended first." replied Alex condolingly.

Juleha and her father were surprised. Mr. Juleha began to show his dislike, Alex, Bima, Sandi, and Vicky who realized that even then could only look down, feeling guilty.

Mr. Juleha looked in the direction of the four of them. "Where's Alex?"

"I, sir" Alex replied.

"Oh. you." Mr. Juleha nodded. "So now you're tea conscious?"

"We're sorry sir, our mistakes are big, but I'm sure the same father Juleha has a bigger heart" said Alex who was still down.

Juleha looked at Alex in disbelief. Did he not hear wrong, Alex apologized? he then glanced towards Nia and Adit, they smiled and winked once, as if to say..

Yep. That's right, the four of them are aware and want to apologize.

"It was a long time ago, do you remember?" juleha said, still a little confused.

"We may forget, but a lot of people are missing us. Now we realize we're guilty, we're guilty, Juleha." said Vicky.

"You are not because of our outrageous behavior, maybe now you are still in school in Jakarta" added Sandi.

"Gue also apologized, I used to think that by pointing my power to you, I am great, and giving a deterrent to you is easy. But I don't think about it actually. I've hurt you. It might even ruin your parents' feelings too" Alex regretted.

Let alone Juleha, all who heard the words of regret from Alex were filled with excitement, including Kayla. Kayla felt very happy and proud to hear the confession from Alex's mouth.

Juleha glanced at her father before speaking, father nodding. "A-I'm-I'm sorry. I missed that problem too. I'm glad you're aware of your mistake, and I honor your confession."

Relieved. It feels like the burden of being cared for is getting less, it turns out that apologizing is calming. It is hard to admit mistakes, but after doing so our feelings will calm down and the mind becomes plong. So did Vicky, Sandi, and Bima.

"We missed that! Think of it as a lesson for us now, and for the future as well. I'm glad you guys want to come to my house rame-rame kayak gini, don't hesitate yes. Please drink!" juleha said that ended by breaking the awkwardness and tension between them.

"Thank you" said Nia who was accompanied by her little bitterness.

The atmosphere seemed friendly, they chatted with Juleha and her father. When noon came, Juleha's mother came and took them to lunch together. Of course they feel awkward, but the name of the guest must appreciate the host banquet right, if they refuse of course Juleha's family who feel bad.

"Sorry guys, we sit on the mat" said Juleha.

"No papa we mah, don't bother either, Leha!" nia Sahut.

"Well, this is the rice we just harvested the other day. Cobain! This is the result of your hard work" said his father Juleha who had sat first in front of the food.

"Owh. So this man Mang Asep is a farmer!" said Sandi.

You just laugh to respond. "lya. Here people know it so, because there are three people whose names are the same." Juleha.

"So we almost stray sir, find the address of the father's house did not meet. We know Mang Asep doang, it is also known as the boarding mother. Pas nyampe to this village, uh. it turns out that there are many people named Mang Asep." said Bang Oki.

"He'em, fortunately there was a little boy who just now.they who want us to come here" said Nia.

Nia gulped her saliva looking at the food presented in front of her. The menu is simple, white rice with side dishes of fried fish, lodeh jackfruit, osengan teri tempe, and lalapan which is equipped with terasi sambal. Her mother Juleha deliberately cooked a lot because she was happy to have guests from Jakarta.

"Oh my goodness, ma'am, we're taking nicotine." said Kayla.

"No papa Neng, the mother was happy, the house became rame, eating also became more spirit, yes sir!"

"He'eh!" he said without a word, because his mouth was stuffed with rice and vegetables.

"Sok oruh Neng, Den. Consider it your own home, even if the place to eat is not kayaking in your own home. Hhehe.." chirped Juleha's mother.

They also laugh.

"Then it's as if it's."

"Thank you very much Ma'am, simple gini also drooled I saw it" said Bima.

"Sok or. eat! You go first." said the father again.

Peace is in a family atmosphere like this. Enjoying a life that although simple but togetherness thick. Alex so longed for the times when he, papa, and mama ate together with his wisdom. That togetherness, that warmth, that happiness.

Then Alex and the others started looking for lodging. They had previously asked Mang Asep, Juleha's father. Mang Asep actually wanted to offer them to sleep in his house, but how about, their house only had three rooms. One room for Mang Asep and his wife, another for Juleha, and the other for Juleha's two younger brothers, Sholeh and Sobri, who are still in Elementary School. Mang Asep said in his village there is no inn or hotel. There is only a tenement or boarding house, a rented house that used to be occupied by KKN officials who came to this village. That is even if there is no one occupying the house until now, after the return of KKN employees. That was all they could possibly occupy for a temporary stay. They also headed to the location of the boarding house which is almost a kilometer from Juleha's house.

Arriving at the location. They saw from the outside, the boarding house looks numbered 4 pieces. Juleha then invited them to meet the owner of the boarding house. Unfortunately, all four houses are already inhabited. They finally came home empty.

"I'm sorry guys, besides this house, I don't know where else to go. But I don't mind if you guys are at home. I'm happy too" said Juleha.

"But we're bad, Leha. We have to take care of your mother about lunch, now we want to sleep too" said Nia.

"I don't know papa. Don't worry, you're my guests. I'm glad you guys want to take a walk to my village, when else we gather like this, aren't we!"

"But still, we're here for the holidays, not to take care of your family" Kayla said.

Juleha smiled at Kayla. la stared fixedly at Kayla, remembering whether she knew this girl as well, whether she was a younger sister or a upperclassman.

"You..?"

"Oh, we haven't met, yeah. I'm Kayla. I'm the same class as Nia and Adit." said Kayla as she reached out her hand.

Juleha welcomed Kayla's hand, "Greetings Kayla, you must have known me." said Juleha, accompanied by a small laugh.

"lyas. I've heard a lot about you."

"Well know him?" bima said lazily, making Kayla and Juleha look at him.

"This is how we are, already this afternoon but have not been able to place nginep" said Bima again, looking annoyed.

"We've been there" Juleha said as they reached her house.

"Oh Juleha, not how the hell, but we really do not want to bother your family.lya our goal here is to make your nyamperin, but we all vacation too. Not good with your family" said Alex.

"You don't know how people are here. Let alone me who know you, if you come to anyone's house in this village, they will welcome you well. The people here are friendly, the social spirit is high, they like the arrival of guests. They even consider you part of them. So you don't have to be shy" explained Juleha.

"Gee.. Neng Leha, are there any guests? Rame' is really this..!" a mother who came.

"Alhamdulillah Bu, these are Leha's friends from Jakarta."

"Oh from Jakarta." said another mother.

"Mom, these are the ones Uli told earlier." said a child to his mother.

This girl was one of the two children who had shown the way to Kayla and her friends.

"Wah Leha, the son of the city of clear-clear tea ya.." one of the mothers glanced at Alex and his three friends.

Juleha. "Oh yes Ma'am, this is Alex, this is Bima, this is Sandi, this is Vicky. This Trus is Adit, this is Adit's sister is Annisa, this trus is Nia, and this is.. Kayla."

The mothers and children nodded. Without them knowing, there were two people watching them. The two men finally came out of their hiding place and walked over to Juleha.

"Nginep ya Neng?" ask a mother.

"lya Ma'am. We're all on vacation here." Kayla replied.

The mothers laughed crisply. Kayla did not understand what made them laugh, but they did not look like they were laughing at her.

"The villagers are on vacation to the city, uh this is your holiday town boy to the village."

Oh so that made them laugh, Kayla and the others laughed as well. Their laughter stopped as the two people who had been watching them now greeted.

"You can stay at home if you want. There are two guest rooms that are empty, usually if there are outsiders who come here, nginepnya in our house" said a young man offering.

"Sister Rizki, Rini!" greet Juleha, the two then reply to Juleha's greeting with a smile.

"Oh yes friends, know this Rizki sister with Rini. They're both Mr. RW's sons here. Rini's my friend, and Rizki's sister, she taught SD here." Juleha and Rizki glanced at each other and blushed.

"Greetings to you" Kayla told Rizki and Rini.

"So. means Rizki's sister Rini is nawarin we nginep at Mr. RW's house, is that it?" tanya Bang Oki made sure.

"yes, if you want to."

They glanced at each other and thought. "What is ngerepotin?" adit sungkan.

"Yes, it's not. We are used to the arrival of your kayak guests." said Rini who has since glanced at Alex's lyrics.

"I mean, your kayak guests who come from the city, and here to see the rural atmosphere, so."

Nia and the others were Oh ria.

"Emm. may be if you don't take notes." replied Alex as he glanced at his friends. "But we. It's eight, uh nine. Lots of money."

"No papa, fun rame." said Rini enthusiastically. "I'm anther!"

"Oh yeah, I'm Rini, who are you?" rini said again.

Alex looked at Rini's hand which he held out before Alex. Alex hesitated. "Alex"

"Gue Bima." Bima nodded and extended her hand at Rini while playing her eyebrows at a glance. Rini shook Bima's hand.

Suddenly there was a laugh of Mang Asep. "Basar city children, offered here nginep do not want. Eh.giliran Neng Rini who nawarin directly want" said his Father Juleha.

Rini blushed embarrassed while glancing at Alex, Juleha who saw him only chuckled amusedly while shaking her head. Rizki and Rini finally invite them to visit his house, and they agree to stay at the house of Mr. RW, which in fact is the largest house in the village.

Kayla felt a little annoyed when she saw the behavior of Rini who she thought seemed familiar and rather spoiled to Alex, even though they had just met. And Alex doesn't seem to be bothered by Rini's behavior.

"That's really it" said Kayla slowly, who could only be heard by Nia and Juleha who were on her right and left.

he was annoyed to see Rini talking to Alex in a spoiled tone made up, while holding Alex's arm. Nia and Juleha who saw Kayla's expression, were somewhat astonished.

"Emmm.. Juleha, I think I'm going to stay at your house." said Kayla, making everyone look at her.

"Oh yes, yes. That's fine."

"Loh.. Don't be here, sister?" ask Annisa.

"Not good with Mr. RW, they're a lot of guys. I think it's better if the two rooms are made with you" Kayla said, you mean guys.

"It's also Kayla's word." - Timpal Sandi.

"I, Nia and Annisa are at Juleha's house" Kayla said again, glancing at Nia and Annisa, both nodding in confusion at Kayla's decision.

In addition to seeing Rini and Alex upset, Kayla seems to want to spend time and talk a lot with Juleha, so she decides to stay at Juleha's house only. Alex is so worried, and wants to stay at Juleha's house too, the reason is of course because he wants to be close to Kayla. However, Rini and Mr. RW convince Alex to stay at their house.

"Kay, how come you suddenly want to spend time at Juleha's house? I suspect. lest you deliberately avoid Alex yes, you are jealous of Alex with Rini earlier..?" nia Goda.

Kayla rounded her eyes in shock. What did Nia say, jealousy? How can Nia think like that.

"What the hell are you saying, no, why am I jealous!"

"Ehm.we've seen it.." Juleha also teased.

"What sight?" kayla started salting.

"You didn't see Rini with Alex?" juleha.

"Yes. bit. You guys must have sprained too. Yesterday Rini was like a stick-nempel like Alex, just knew too. I. rada is not good to see."

"You're jealous of Kay, Alex is brought to each other's girls. right..? Look right out of your face." tease Nia again.

Kayla raised her eyebrows in wonder. Does his face show jealousy? Kayla just doesn't really understand what jealousy looks like, after all why she would be jealous to see Alex and Rini!

"Jealous is a sign of love Kay, if you are jealous of Alex, it means you are not willing to be with someone else" said Juleha.

"I'm not jealous anyway, he's nobody, why am I jealous"

"Nobody?" juleha confused, "Emang is not a girlfriend huh?"

"What's? You think I'm the same as Alex dating?" Kayla laughs amusedly.

Juleha looked at Nia and Annisa, looking for answers to her confusion. "Sir, Kayla and Alex's sister are not dating" Annisa explained.

"Owh.. sorry!" juleha said it wasn't good.

"yes not dating, but the deck is like a real dating person. I understand if you're jealous of Kay, Alex will also be jealous if you look at other guys." seduced Nia.

"Jealous is a sign that likes it, well I don't like it with him. So there was no jealousy, that was just me all over again." Kayla argued again.

"Masa'? I don't like what you like."

"What the hell Ni, you ngaco ah!"

"You don't like it, you want to come here just for Alex's mastiin really-apologize!"

"What's wrong?" Kayla.

"Eh wait, so Kayla's here for Alex, is that it?" ask Juleha.

"Yup!"

"It's not just that. You know Leha, who made Alex and her friends change to kayak now, that's Kayla. Alex's love for Kayla brought Alex to her knees. Cool right!"

Juleha salute him, while Kayla just shook her head in response to Nia's babbling.

And Annisa, since then just shut up. Not that he disliked their conversation, Annisa only thought about and worried about her brother, Adit. Annisa knows very well that Adit has liked Kayla for a long time, but until now Adit has not expressed his feelings for Kayla. Unfortunately, Annisa has warned Adit many times if Adit continues to harbor his feelings, then Adit can lose Kayla at any time, because Kayla is getting closer to Alex. Annisa is upset that Adit is not trying to fight for her love.
