My Heart to You, Brother (Love in Silence)

30. savory spicy sweet spicy

Arrida is treated. He also cleaned himself up. Same with Uwais. They wore clothes provided by a resident, because their clothes were very dirty and smelly.

"Once you go home! No need to continue activities! You got a motorbike, didn't you, get him!" orders pak Sofyan, one of the accompanying teachers of social service events from the field of students. He did entrust Arrida to Uwais. Mr. Sofyan already knows Uwais very well, almost three years he became his guardian. He memorized well the nature of his students. He also admired Uwais. A teenager who is helpful, trustworthy, and courageous.

"But Mr ...." Arrida feels bad.

"Sir papa, you also have to prepare tomorrow for blood donation activities, right?"

Uwais and Arrida nodded simultaneously.

"Yes, already home, soon to rain, it's cloudy, after all, here also the activities are almost finished, most live reading garden and sub-division, all can be handled by your friends!" mr. Sofyan explained that the two should not worry about social service activities.

Finally they went to the motorbike parked by Uwais near the mosque.

"Now cake!" uwais orders while handing over a helmet.

"Tumben's got two helmets!" Arrida took the helmet from Uwais' hand and put it on.

"So here with Roni!"

"Well, that means Roni's brother will come home alone dong!"

"No, there are many other people,"

Arrida smiled, actually without him asking, she already knew that Roni would go home with the others. He just wants to make small talk. Because actually he just does not want to look nervous because his heart is currently not careless, imagining it is already amazingly happy, both riding a motorcycle with someone who likes.

"Congratulations, what else do you think?"

"Eh, no papa," Arrida awoke from her momentary daydream.

"Can it go up, right?" ask Uwais.

Arrida. Actually it was a bit difficult for him to ride the Uwais motorbike, because his knee still hurts especially if he was bent, but Uwais held his arm tightly, helping him to ride.

"Have you ever done this, Ar?"

Arrida looked at Uwais questioningly. He is now on the back bike.

"The first time we met," Uwais said, recalling the incident when they first met.

Suddenly heard by Uwais's ears the sound of Arrida's stomach rumbling. He smiled at Arrida who deliberately turned her eyes in embarrassment.

"Don't be ashamed, the sound is loud, laper yaa," ledek Uwais.

Arrida finally grinned, rubbing her stomach.

"He um," Arrida nodded spoiledly. Hope the guy in front of her takes her to lunch.

Uwais looked at the clock on his left wrist. It was approaching lunch break.

"Well, be back again in the event imashol (break eat prayer).... How's it? Want to wait here so I can eat together?"

"What the hell, sis, Sofyan sir has told us to go home, still ngarep rice box that?"

"Hehe, joking Ar, getting hurt is serious ... Yes, before going home to eat first yuk!" said Uwais while riding his bike. Arrida showed her small smile. 'yes'

The sky was getting darker, the wind was blowing quite hard. Uwais decided to stop at a chicken noodle and meatball stall on the side of the road.

"This is not papa ya," said Uwais who then got a nod from Arrida.

Finally they came in, and sat in the lesehan place with a fairly small table. It seems to be deliberately reserved for only two people. Uwais and Arrida immediately ordered a serving of chicken noodles and a serving of meatballs.

"Why choose meatballs, Ar?" asked Uwais while adding soy sauce to her chicken noodles

"Like it, it tastes savory" replied Arrida, adding two spoons of chili pepper to the bowl containing the meat

"Heiii, not much sambalnya, your stomach was still empty," Uwais held Arrida's hand which would add the chili for the third time.

"No mantep, brother, still not sore,"

"Maybe your stomach doesn't hurt but pity your gut health, have it, eat it, and just enjoy it, don't overdo it,"

Arrida pouted, her lips manyuning.

"So, no appetite if you don't care?" ask Uwais.

Arrida was silent, he just played his spoon stirring the noodles in the bowl.

"Add it!" Finally Uwais handed the small bowl containing the sauce to the girl in front of him at this time.

Arrida's face sparkled. He immediately grabbed the chili and put it in his bowl of meat until it felt spicy sauce the meatballs fit according to his tongue.

Uwais just shook his head to see the behavior of his favorite girl.

"What does it feel like?" asked Uwais while feeding chicken noodles into her mouth.

"Spotty scourge" Arrida does not really like sauce or soy sauce. He would just add sambal to his meatballs.

"Oiya, if sister why choose chicken noodles?" ask Arrida now.

"The portion color is larger, and can make the stomach more full,"

"Huh, so it's not because of brother's favorite chicken noodles huh?" Arrida was not out of thought, it turns out the reason Uwais chose chicken noodles just because the portion of his noodles is more than the noodles in the meatballs

"Why?" Uwais chuckled at the expression of the girl enjoying her meatballs.

"So, actually, who's the laper anyway?" arrida asked as if he was insinuating Uwais, because what he knew was his stomach that was rumbling.

Uwais. He did not answer Arrida's question. Because they are both hungry.

"Actually, I like chicken noodles because it is sweet, the combination of soy sauce with chicken seasoning, it is very delicious, added sambal so ... Sweet spicy," Uwais said, eventually explaining why she likes chicken noodles.

Arrida nodded in understanding.

"Wanna try?" ask Uwais.

"No ah, already sweet spicy ..." said Arrida while enjoying the sauce. Eyes closed. His red lips poked in against his tongue, feeling the pleasure of the meatball sauce.

And the way he enjoyed the meatball sauce, it was not separated from the attention of Uwais. Uwais fell silent, smiling as he folded his hands on the table and watched her eat meatballs. He really liked the way Arrida enjoyed eating it.

"Hey brother, why did you even see me eating? Can you be full just by watching me eat?"

Uwais widened his smile.

"What a son?" ask Uwais later.

"Hemmm yes... It's my taste, brother want to try?" tanya Arrida.

"Can,"

"Huh, seriously?" Arrida does not believe that Uwais wants to taste the meat.

"Okke," then he scoops the meatballs and the noodles. Then bring the spoon closer right in front of Uwais' mouth.

"If so you also have to try mine, yes" said Uwais while bringing closer the spoon containing chicken noodles and broth to the front of Arrida's mouth.

Uwais and Arrida looked at each other, they smiled with their hands both holding spoons to feed each other. A strange and beautiful mixed feeling was present in the hearts of the two. Like there were flowers coming out of it.

Uwais opened his mouth, as did Arrida, then they enjoyed each other's mouthfuls.

Uwais closed his eyes. No, he's not enjoying the taste of Arrida's noodles, rather he's holding something back. Then after he swallowed what he had chewed earlier, he opened his eyes, he immediately sipped his orange ice.

"andr! This is a meatball with sambal or sambal with meatballs, huh?" Uwais almost choked because it held the spicy taste in his mouth

Arrida laughed, but her mouth was covered with her palm.

"Where's it good, brother?"

"Hmmmh, spicy savory," said Uwais nodding as he lifted his thumb.

"Had brother is also delicious, sweet spicy," said Arrida as she raised her hand with her thumb clenched with her index finger to the shape of an 'O', then kissed it to the mouth. 'mmuach' as a sign of perfect pleasure.
