At eight o'clock in the evening Laras finished with all his activities to reduce the decile. Scrubs, masks, baths, and makeup are all done Heartfelt barrel. The black dress that Dano bought yesterday is now adrift sweetly in her body. The barrel looks very sexy and charming, plus the red lipstick on the lips gives the impression he is a girl who will make everyone fascinated but no one can have it.
“Ra sought after Dano” shouted Sri into the room, her eyes rounded in amazement at the appearance of Laras. “Who are you? Very beautiful!!!”
“Any no?”
“No, saucy, sexy. Wow, his adult son Mr Susanto”
“Ih Sri, shy tau.”
Sri laughed and then stepped out. “No, said Laras just come in, I want to watch drama”
“I did not say so” Baras correction but Dano had already appeared in front of his bedroom door. Dano wore a black leather jacket with a white shirt, her hair trimmed neatly making the winged angel tattoo on the neck more visible. There was no more piercing in Dano's eyebrows but it made him look twice as handsome. The barrel gulped, consciously fascinated on Dano.
“Udah finished Ra?”
“E-eh? L-yet….Said you'd come by at half-nine? Still twenty minutes more loh” said Laras awkwardly glanced at the alarm clock.
“I want to take this.”
Dano crouched open the box of shoes that she had been carrying since. “Rather than you wear your sneakers, mending you wear this.”
Barrel's eyes immediately sparkled, high heels dark red straps attached sweetly to his feet. “You know my leg size from where?”
“I shave use ruler” replied Dano origin, he looked up at Laras who was still sparkling to see his shoes.
“Makasih” mumbled Laras.
“Yuk Ra.”
The barrel follows Dano, the guy opens the car door letting Laras in. About thirty minutes into their car stopped at a Japanese mini bar, several cars were already parked there. “Barnya rented all day?”
“Iya, so you are free to say aja.”
The barrel gulped, he never felt this mouthful.
“Ra, nothing less.”
The barrel turned away, Dano approached and put something, the smell of perfume Dano smell clearly made Laras like to melt.
“Cantik” Dano says. The barrel looked down at the necklace with a key-shaped tip. “This is actually a replica of my school warehouse key” joked Dano then after that they got out of the car. Laras gawking, the birthday party room looks more like a mini concert event. Several srikandi bands performed while party waiters paced around carrying drinks on trays.
“Laras!!” Laras turned away, Amel ran towards him and hugged Laras tightly. “Dog! Very sexy you Ra, cute!” praise Amel geleng. Laras smiled awkwardly, since earlier he thought his appearance was too splashy, but saw Amel and another girl srikandi Laras immediately knew that the dress was still meding.
“Iya dong sakep, the work of Valdano nih” said Dano cocky from the side.
“Ra, we have to take a photo, I want to show off to Manda, so sorry he does not want to come. Sam, please photoin” said Amel handed his phone to Samuel, after taking some photos of Amel then took Laras around and introduced Laras to the children. Laras could feel everyone's gaze fixed on him, he who never got the attention of people now had to smile clumsyly at the line of men who openly invited to get acquainted.
“Who? Weh Barrel huh?” Heru appeared with a bottle of jack daniels in hand, he put it on the table then looked at Laras from top to bottom, slightly making Laras feel uneasy. “Whose name is Ra? Amel?”
“Gue.” Dano's voice rang out, he hugged Laras from behind and slowly kissed Laras' shoulder. Dano's gesture and sharp gaze clearly showed everyone that Laras was hers. Some of the guys who had been fussing about wanting to ask for the Laras number slowly backed off one by one. Dano smiled happily, not caring about the blushing face of Laras. The girl's heart almost jumped because of her behavior earlier.
“Oh you, you are in Ra same Dano? Until so like gini” laughter Heru ticklish.
“Any ya my appearance?”
“Negan Ra, just different, I think you just like to wear colorful clothes like rainbow” geleng Heru.
“Udah yes, I would like to invite Laras to meet Alea. Yuk Ra, acquaintance with the owner of the party, you guys go there all the way” push Amel pull Laras away. “Alea, happy birthday! It's a gift from me and Laras. Gift from Dano and Samuel is still pending, you ask for gold antam aja” cerocos Amel hugged Alea.
Alea laughed out loud, she was the only one in the room wearing a red dress. “Oh you yes whose name is Laras? I'm Alea.”
The barrel greeted Alea's clumsy helping hand. “Laras”
“Befit Dano to her knees, you cute” smile Alea then waved at another Srikandi who called her. “Lu both nikamatin party yes, do not go home quickly tonight there is a performance of DJ Ali. We jog until morning”
“Best Alea! Your life is long until hundreds” exclaimed Amel girang half dead. “Ra drink”
“Ngak. I want water” ring Barrel when Alea leaves them.
Amel gulped down the alcohol he offered himself. “Ih, you come all the way here to drink water, there is also a pool water, drink aja.”
Baras grinned choosing to take ice syrup, the lights slowly began to dim and the atmosphere was getting crowded. Jamrud's happy birthday song was heard and a big cake was in the middle of the room. All singing happily accompanied Alea who looked happy in their midst. Laras also dissolves in the euphoria of happiness, his face turned to look for Dano intending to ask the guy to 'steal' some pieces of cake. However, not the figure of Dano that he got, Laras actually saw Angga standing not far from him, looking next to Angga there Sera mesmerizing his arm. Their gazes met, Laras gulped feeling nervous, this was his first meeting with Angga since their quarrel last time. Angga looks not to take his eyes off Laras. There was a puzzled and strange streak that emanated from the eyes of Angga. Of course the guy must have felt surprised when he saw his ex standing not far from him with a different appearance. The barrel that used to always wear pants as well as colorful clothes, disheveled hair, without make up, looked rather dull, and completely unattractive now stood with a one hundred and eighty degree changing appearance.
Amidst his nervousness, Baras's match against Angga hindered Dano who came with Samuel. “Where are you from?”
“Back with kids” Dano replied.
Laras turned away, his smile disappeared, Laras who initially felt happy now wanted to leave the place after seeing Angga. Strange, it should be that Laras was pleased because Angga was clearly surprised by his appearance. But what happened Laras actually felt angry when he saw Angga, especially with the existence of Sera next to the guy.
“Why Ra?” whispered Dano asked.
“No papa” replied Laras shook his head, Dano turned his face towards the view of Laras earlier, just briefly because after that without saying anything Dano directly embraces the friendly shoulder of Laras.
...----------------...
Towards midnight the atmosphere of Alea's party became more crowded, DJ Ali who had been proud of Alea began to show his skills. Some people dance crazy, like they're clubbing and not at a birthday party. Laras sits down with Dano and her friends, sitting on the couch with cigarettes and alcohol on the table.
“Mel has drunk tuh” said Heru laughing when he saw Samuel's eyes began to shut.
“Biarin, briefly if I can not walk back to his house using go send” replied Amel cuek his friend laughed amusedly.
“Not drinking Ra? A little, will not make you tepar like Samuel” bargain Heru. Laras shook his head preferring to gulp down the ice syrup that had been back and forth he had taken since.
“Udah Ru, Laras is underage, here for me aja.” Brandon took the glass from Heru's hand.
“Still underage but sexy really” taped Heru keceplosan.
“Ru be careful when you say, you don't see the handler? Protective like his father Laras” said Riska girlfriend Heru pointed Dano, they both laugh amusedly.
Dano sat next to Laras while smoking a cigarette, her body leaned on the sofa and her hands were raised up and stroked Laras' back as she was about to take a small piece of Amel's cake. Laras's fur was goosebumps, his face turned to find Dano staring at him, he did not say anything but his hand did not escape from Laras.
“Ra, be careful, already want to face it. Let's go home with me alone, afraid you diapa-apain” seductive Brandon giggled amusedly
“Halah find your chance, there nganterin Eris rumah” reply Amel pointed towards a girl who was dancing in the middle of the room.
“Idih amit-amit mending I help sweep the room after the party rather than having to nganter him home” reject Brandon raw.
“Why the hell are you nolak? She's not so ugly Kok”
“Emang is not ugly, but alay, what does he mean to make a mellow caption using my initial name? What do I think I am?” dumel Brandon is sick of dying.
“Yeah so doang, you do not reject Bran, his father the owner of the tea garden loh”
“Terus?”
“Yes who knows you can get the best tea leaf sprouts every morning” Heru ledek. His friends laughed and laughed at Brandon. Baras too, but an intense touch on his back made Laras face back turned, Dano grinned wide.
“You drunk huh?” Farthest-wrinkled forehead smells of alcohol from Dano's mouth.
“Hmm..I sleepy.” Dano leaned her chin over Laras' shoulder, she muttered indistinctly. The barrel grimaced, not only Dano, Samuel also seemed to have closed his eyes while humming something.
“Wah singing nih.” Amel laughed amusedly. His friends then leaned over to hear Samuel muttering, the man was singing the song of the young man's wake created Alfred Simanjuntak, his nationalism always appeared excessive when he was on the verge of the boundary of consciousness.
“Funny banget” kekeh Laras ticklish.
“This has not been how Ra, especially if Heru has been talking about Darwin's theory and Brandon talking about the story of the prophet, it's a sign we have to go home.” Heru and Brandon sneered at Amel's words.
“Ra….Barrel...” muttered Dano calling.
“Iya? Why?”
“Very good thing Ra, I like” racau Dano bit Laras shoulder slowly.
“Iya thanks. I'm going to toilet” said Laras, looking at Dano's behavior. He stepped away, momentarily breaking free from Dano's grip. Laras sat in the toilet cubicle while checking his makeup, just when he was about to step out the voices of some people who were discussing him made Laras choose to remain in the room.
“Crazy ya Dano, everywhere itself like a hermit, once appeared bring a really sexy chick”
“It looks like the Dano type is tiny and sexy deh”
“Eh but that chick's name is Laras? How different is it? I've seen him once, and his looks are normal”
“That's what I said, the night sky had its own power. Ordinary person during the day, night so cinderella”
“Ah dog, I guess in srikandi I'm the sexiest”
“Can already say Sa, tete you are less advanced five centi”
“Idih you guess tete I pinocchio? Uh, but I don't want to give up, that girl hasn't been officially introduced as a boyfriend. As long as the yellow janur hasn't curved means I still have a chance.”
They laughed amusedly, sounding very curious about the figure of Laras who was so mysterious. After a few minutes they went out and the toilet went quiet again. The barrel peeked, after making sure there was no one he then stood in the sink and fixed his lipstick again. After finishing Laras out, he was surprised instead of playing when he saw Angga standing in front of the toilet door.
“Ra, I want to say” said Angga without further ado pulling Laras out, they were standing in the back garden not far from the pool bar.
“Please!” Baras threw the hand of Angga rough, he could catch the angry flares from the radiance of Angga's face. “What do you want?”
“Should I ask that? What are you doing here? Wear a gini kayak shirt, if there is a lecehin you how?!”
Laras dumbly for a moment, he gulped trying to strengthen himself to fight Angga. Relax Ra, this is the guy who cheated on you, not the guy who killed people, Inner Laras. “I came with Dano because she was invited and not me to wear kayak gini clothes. Your girl also” reply Laras sewot.
“I've told you I don't like you close to Dano, you don't see her association like how? And what was that? He's curling you like that, you're not ashamed of what many people see?”
Barrel bit his lips, he felt annoyed. Want to feel like yelling at Angga and say that everyone in the room was also not shy to hug his partner, even in some corners there was kissing. After all Sera also hugged Angga, so what was the problem? Why did the man blame Laras as if he had just done a disgraceful deed? Angga should be glazed!
“Not your business” replied Half-dead hyacinth barrel but that's the only sentence that can come out of his lips.
“Urusan. You're my fiancee!” reply Angga began to emotion, wanting it to feel like pulling Laras away from this place and solving their problems.
“What do you see is a ring in my hand? Don't you? Denger yes, I came here with Dano, you are with Sera, we have no relationship. Now the problem is where?” exclaims Laras upset half dead. Angga silenced, his emotions when he saw Laras with Dano made his logic suddenly die. Angga tried to dismiss hard that his emotions are created not because of jealousy, but because Dano who holds the hand of Laras. Angga didn't want hers to belong to that guy.
“You should know the limits. We are now just two people who do not have a relationship” added Laras, he was about to step away but Angga quickly grabbed his hand holding back Laras step. “What the hell? Leasin!”
“We go home now Ra, our business is not finished”
“I don't feel like I have any business with you!” laras shouted trying to take off Angga's grasp, but the guy was much stronger. In one pull Laras has entered in his arms.
“I don't care, but I can't let you go, let alone to Dano”
“You're crazy!” Laras tried his hardest to push Angga, but the guy did not budge. Laras almost cried, if only he had not heard the voice of Dano calling from the back of Angga.
“Laras.”
Laras. Dano approached them and casually pulled Laras from Angga. The barrel grimaced, her wrists flushed.
“Ngapain you brought Laras here?”
“Not your business, don't interfere!” ketus Angga was not happy with Dano's interruption.
“Iurusan dong. You just brought my girlfriend out without permission to me.”
Angga. “Pacar?….” muttered Angga staring at Laras full of meaning. “So this is the reason you can be that easy to break up our relationship?”
“Yoi, just as easy as you cheated, but thank you, if you don't cheat, Laras probably won't want to accept me. Lu make it easier for me to make dapetin Laras.” .Dano patted Angga's shoulder quietly, his expression clearly mocking Angga. Dano feels a landslide win.
On the other hand Laras looked at the two men in horror, Angga's face reddened the sign he was ready to fight with Dano in this place, just wait for who first launched boxing and certainly fights will occur.
Dano looked down as if she wanted to whisper to Angga. “This is a warning to you, don't you ever try to touch my girl, or you'll end up in my hands.”
Laras gulped. “Dano let's go in, it's cold.” Dano drunk and Angga emotional. The two people are not the right combination of social interactions in this situation and should be separated as far as possible. “Don't fight at people” party reprimands Baras when they go inside. Dano laughed, he hugged Laras tightly from behind and the two walked in past the people who were having fun. “Cock not back?” laras asked as Dano led them away from Amel's couch. Dano was silent but did not let go of his embrace, occasionally he returned the greetings of his friends.
“Who is No? Where did you bring it from? Tiny kayak doll” tease one of Dano's friends when seeing Laras. His eyes looked at Laras in amazement as if the girl was a step animal that Dano was saving.
“My wife” replied Dano's origin. Dano just took off his arms when they were in the corner, a little far from the person dancing madly. “Mau Ra?” ask Dano when taking a small glass of alcohol. Laras shook his head, until the end he consistently did not want to touch the drink. Laras tried once while in Amel's room and the bitter alcohol taste was no play. Baras did not understand, what good is alcohol to have to spend bottles? Dano nodded putting her glass on the big speaker guardrail.
“So why did you get outside?” tanya Laras was a bit screaming because the music sound was too loud.
Dano lowered her head to pull Laras closer. “I squirm Angga always ogles you and fitting you go to the toilet I squirm he followed you”
“Oh therefore you from earlier kept close to me? I thought you were drunk. You want to make Angga jealous, right? You succeeded, outside Angga was angry, tell me to go home” reply Laras smiled happily.
Dano smokes her cigarette and exhales slowly towards Laras' shoulder before tucking in slowly. The barrel goosebumps, Dano's behavior sometimes likes to make the performance of his heart overreact.
“Still ya” says Laras seriously.
“For what?”
“Because I feel good tonight. I wear dresses I've never worn, pretty shoes, pretty necklaces, meet funny friends, and enjoy time at kayak gini events. I'm glad” is clearly Baras honest. “I'm like Cinderella who's got a magic spell.” Laras stared fixedly at Dano, the guy looked back at him calmly.
“You know that Cinderella's spell is only until twelvepm? It will be half two in the morning Ra, and your matra is still there, maybe even until tomorrow and so on”
“Yes, you're right, my mantra continues because you are the fairy always follow me everywhere, so the effect is hard to lose” replied Laras smile.
Dano pulled Laras stroking his back slowly, he lowered his head and whispered. “Ra, look behind you. Towards the sofa near the bar table.”
Laras turned in the direction Dano pointed out, his eyes catching the figure of Angga sitting there with Sera and his friends, but the guy looked at Laras and Dano with a watching attitude. Laras snorted instantly turned his face away. “Ihs, I guess what's up. Sebel look at his face” grumbled Laras.
Dano smokes a cigarette and throws his butt down and stomps to death, he picks up his alcohol glass and glances at Angga.
“Udah do not need to be ignored, cuekin aja” reprimand Laras.
“Ra….Cinderella can't do this either.”
Dano gulped his alcohol and pulled Laras' face closer. Laras' body stiffened, Dano's lips touched his lips again, but not just a regular kiss like some time ago. Dano's kiss this time is more demanding. Dano biting Laras' lips made the girl moan, and that moment when Laras' lips opened she could feel the taste of alcohol mixed with nicotine infiltrate into her lips. The sensation of bitter as well as sweet makes the body of Laras want to melt. Laras's mind became chaotic, because not only kisses, but Dano's hands also did not stop stroking her back. Baras' hand pushed Dano slowly, she could not breathe well.
“Kalo kiss do not hold the breath Ra, you are no longer in the pool” kekeh Dano relaxed. Baras looked down, the hue of his face turned reddish. Dano's kiss made her unable to do anything.
The popping sound from the confetti popper party added to the long night's cheers. The barrel looked up but just for a moment, he could feel his cheeks heating up. Either because of the kiss, the alcohol, or Dano who was looking at him was calm.
“Let's go back Ra, the show is done” whispered Dano for the last time to kiss the forehead Laras. Dano took off her jacket to cover Laras' body and after that while embracing Laras, they stepped away from the place.
...----------------...
At nine o'clock in the morning Laras was just awake from sleep, after being confused because the intensity of sunlight entering the room was greater than usual, Laras only realized he was at Dano's house. The barrel stretched out, last night after Alea's party, Laras argued with Dano. The man was under the influence of alcohol and Laras did not want Dano to drive, because it meant that Laras voluntarily gave his life to death. After a long debate finally the final decision of Dano and Laras back using a taxi, but to Dano's house, because it is impossible Laras brought a guy iu stay at his house. Where will Dano sleep? Apin Cages? The barrel stood up from the mattress, he was surprised when he saw his reflection on the glass. What happened last night is clearly visible. Dano's lip marks on her neck and shoulders were clearly visible. The barrel touched slowly, he grimaced, a little painful.
“Basic brash guy. How do I close this? Daily use turtle neck to campus? Long ago I chili his lips” snort Laras grumpy. Baras finally decided to get out, he needed a shirt because there was no way Laras would hang around with this dress all day.
“Aduh Neng Laras kok do not wear home sandals? His feet dirty loh” reprimand Yanti made Laras surprised almost stumbled on the stairs.
“Halo mbak, good morning” greet Baras clumsy.
“Morning also Neng Laras, sorry yes I did not wake up, because said Mas Dano biarin Neng Laras wake up alone. Let's eat first, must be hungry huh?”
“Thank you mbak, but where is Dano?”
“Tuh.”
The barrel turned, Dano appeared while twirling the car keys. Looks like he just picked up his car that was left last night in Alea's birthday car park.
“No, pinjem tues” said Laras without further ado approaching Dano. Dano stared at Laras, his eyes looking at Laras from top to bottom and then gave a brief nod.
“Mbak cook what?”
“Fish his favorite pepes Mas Dano. Neng Laras nginep again not?”
“No mbak, I came home a little bit more”
“Don't be clocked anymore, just step away. Eat first yes. I am tired of cooking for Neng Laras”
“Iya Mbak Yanti, I change clothes first yes. Yuk No, I spent the day making clothes like gini” said Laras and followed Dano. They took the elevator up to the second floor to Dano's room located at the end of the hallway.
“I can enter?” ask Baras clumsy.
“Kalo you like to change clothes in the hallway not papa” replied Dano kalem.
Barrel entered, his expression changing in amazement looking at Dano's room. Unlike the men's room in general, Dano's room looks very neat. The contents of Dano's room are also enough to make Laras gawk. The wall paint of the dominant room is white and gray, in the corner there is a glass rack containing expensive toys owned by Dano, then TV and PS 5 lying on the floor, a large mattress, and a large mattress, and the most interesting is a large painting of the house hanging on the wall. Laras stared at the painting for a long time, he was amazed when he saw Dano's name scratched at the end of the painting.
“This is you painting?” asked Laras to turn. Dano did not answer he threw his shirt at Laras.
“Ra change job, I laper want to eat” Dano said. Laras nodded and as quickly as lightning disappeared into the bathroom, once again Laras clucked in awe, the size of Dano's bathroom was almost as big as her room.
“No, hitchhiking face wash” shouted Laras from inside the bathroom.
Dano was silent, he even lay down on the bed and took a deep breath. “Gue can crazy” muttered Dano. How could Laras be so bold as to come out with that dress, barefoot, and a face that looks like it just woke up? Strange, because the appearance of random Laras actually made Dano's desire rise, almost he could not hold himself in front of Yanti. “Dress shit!” rutuk Dano muttered.
...----------------...
A week after that, Laras' life changed. He who used to be unknown to anyone slowly began to become the center of attention of some people. Alea's birthday party made Laras suddenly become more popular, his instagram which was originally only followed by a few people suddenly became more. Some girls who are curious about Laras follow him to see what is interesting from the girl that makes Dano seem to bend her knees in front of him. Meanwhile, some guys who clearly paid attention to Laras that night were desperate to follow and fund the girl to just say hi, although it is clear that Dano is ‘pawang’ from Laras but they do not care. As long as Dano hasn't posted a photo of Laras on Instagram, it means they still have a chance. Dano does not have an Instagram account.
“Ra, greetings from Michael. He said do not forget to mess around to the srikandi” reported Heru one afternoon when they finished college in the first hour. Manda and Amel immediately whistled seductively.
“Emang yes girl if you have lost her cute aura immediately out. Mas Your member must be sorry in the corner” said Amel as usual took the time to nyinyir.
“Lu yes Mel, if there is a race to hate Angga, you champion one” laughs Manda amused, Amel grinned.
“Iya dong should. My side hobby now is to hate Angga with all body soul. Look Laras now, it's cute, there are no smells Angga anymore”
“Angga kayak goat yes until there is a smell.” Manda. “But seriously Ra, your style lately is good. I like”
“Makasih” reply Laras grinned, he only wore ripped jeans, grey t-shirts, black jackets, piercing earrings, and thin make up. Ombre brown lipstick on the lips gives a sexy impression on his sweet face. Thanks to Dano's magazine, now the appearance of the Laras campus can be saved.
“Ru, Dano does not menggampus ya?”
“Skip class, again training for the race in dufan. Why is Ra kangen? I'm afraid to miss the phone, love the spirit or kiss friendly”
“Ih, I'm just the name,” Frown. Heru laughs, teasing Laras is his side hobby.
“Sheets in dufan? What race?”
“The race ride the merry-go-round Mel, whose expression is the happiest who wins” replied Heru sarcas.
“Gue seriously” bully Amel sewot.
“Ya according to you aja son srikandi if you join the race, what race? Poetry reading?”
“Ya who knows swimming competition while ginggar” reply Amel do not want to lose. Laras and Manda laughed amusedly, seeing the two people noisily was a fun free entertainment. Barrel biting the crackers, he looked up at a group of children running out of the canteen, it seemed too late in the next course. When Laras' eyes accidentally collide with Sera, the girl sits across from him and is seen stealing glances towards Laras. When their gazes met Sera's expression looked stiffened. Unexpectedly Laras smiled and after that he turned away not caring about anything.
