After the game, I, Jobes, Auna, Bagus and Bidadari left the basketball court and went home to each other.
I opened the door and found Siti watching TV.
"Eh.... Why Nat?" Siti's sister approached me.
"It's sister. That sprain. Basketball playing time with friends." I put the bag on the couch and laid my body on the couch.
"Wad. How could Nat." Brother Siti.
"But it's hard, brother. It was taken by a friend."
"Are you sure you don't want to be pissed off with your sister?"
"Yes brother. What the hell are you watching, Korea again?" I looked at the television screen.
"Hehehe. Ordinary Nat. You don't know my sister. It was exciting to know." Siti's sister is sitting next to me.
"Mama hasn't come home yet? It was gini afternoon." I looked towards Mama's room.
"Nat Not yet. Mama called, she said today overtime until night. There's a meeting with investors from abroad."
"Oh. Yes, it is brother. I'll go to the room first."
"Can't you?"
"Can brother." I left Siti in the TV room.
I turned on the phone and checked Whatsapp. Just a few incoming messages. Not to mention the notifications from the line that made me ignore those messages.
While waiting, I put down my phone, until the noise stopped.
Adhan began to reverberate. After a while, I got out of bed, grabbed a towel and rushed to take a bath before nightfall.
"Nat, dinner is ready. Gih eat," said Siti.
"Yes brother. But my sister's eating ya."
Siti sat in the next chair. We also ate together.
The house became very quiet after papa's departure. Usually, before all family members including my nanny gather at the meal maja, then no one will eat first.
Now everything is different. It was this kind of atmosphere that made me remember papa a lot.
Sometimes I imagine the presence of papa that makes me miss papa so much, even hope papa returns.
I was sitting in the television room waiting for my mom to come home.
I looked at my phone and checked some class group messages.
The door is pulled from the outside. My mom came back, I thought. I also walked to open the door.
"Nat's night" said a fat woman in front of me.
Jobes, Nice, Auna and Angel were standing right in front of me. Without excuse, they snuck in.
"That's a big piece of Nat. Like a test room. Haha." Good looking around the house.
They gathered in the TV room.
"Where are you going Nat?" ask Auna.
"Mama's still working, overtime" I replied.
"Pa-pa?" bidadari.
"Papa's gone guys. It was a month ago." I'm down.
They slowly hugged me and stroked my shoulder. They just found out about Papa's departure.
It was their presence that made me feel Papa's presence. Their support and encouragement kept me from feeling lonely.
They are like my own family to me. They can keep me entertained.
Tonight, they made the house feel crowded. We enjoyed some food and drinks that night while watching a few movies while telling funny things.
"Guys, you're going to stay here, right?" my many.
"Hm.... If I could. Hehehe," Auni's goda.
"Well, dong guys. In fact, I would be very happy if you guys stay here," I said.
After eating and drinking, I, Auni and Bidadari headed to my room.
"Nat, I'm coming." Chiress followed from behind. Jobes instantly pulled Chiress.
"I'm afraid to sleep with Jobes, I'm being raped." Nice whining.
We just laughed at the madness of Nice and Jobes. Then go into the room.
At dawn, I woke up and went straight to my mom's room.
When I opened the door, I saw my mother still lying on the bed. He must be so exhausted.
I passed the television room and found Jobes and Nice sleeping on the floor. I put a blanket on them.
When I walked into the kitchen, Siti was cooking. I went to her and helped her cook.
After taking a shower, my friends and I gathered at the dinner table to enjoy breakfast together.
There are mama, Jobes, Auna, Bagus, Bidadari and also Siti's sister. Breakfast this morning was complete.
By noon, the friends came home. I drove them to the front gate.
"We go first Nat." The angel and Auni passed by while waving their hands towards me.
"The mbok bus." Chiress pat Jobes' ass.
"Nat, I'm back. See you soon." Jobes ruffled my hair.
"Yes. Careful. Thanks for playing at home." I smiled with rage.
They also left. I went back into the house after closing the gate. I turned around as I looked at the piece of paper tucked away in the gap of the fence.
I pulled the paper. How surprised to see the paper.
"If it's about traveling, I can at least refuse it. Mumpung free, can donk I take." I read the news in the paper very carefully.
In the brochure there is a competition 'Photos of Group Sekece', where for selected participants will get a tour ticket to the area 3T, free and given accommodation during the tour and volunteer in the selected area.
"If I go, I will win and be elected. I asked the others." I immediately informed my friends after taking pictures of the brochure.
The next morning, I excitedly went to college. Although it was actually too early. To avoid getting stuck, I thought.
Upon arrival at the college, I parked the motorbike and walked straight to class. So happy, I forgot to take off my helmet.
I only realized when a classmate of mine reminded me. I took it off and put it back on the bike.
I walked back to class. Right in front of the class, I collided with a lecturer.
Bruks....
Books and papers were scattered on the floor. I immediately squatted down quoting the book and the papers in a hurry.
I handed it to the lecturer while apologizing. Then walk to class.
Huh!! What apes today, I said in my heart.
After discussing the group photo competition, my best friend and I put together a plan for the group photo.
Finally we decided to take the background of the photo, the beach with the design that we have determined.
After the lecture that day, we also headed to the beach with some of his photo equipment.
"One, two, ti-ga." Say someone from behind the camera.
We are also stylish according to concept.
"Where are you, bagua didn't make it?" I asked a guy who helped us take pictures.
"It's good. Again, again." He set his camera back.
"Guys, good for the result." I showed you the pictures.
My friends look excited. We immediately looked for another place to edit the photos before they were sent.
We stopped at a restaurant to eat. While waiting for his food to arrive at the table, Jobes takes an expert in photo editing as he is much better than the rest of us.
"Yey, done." Jobes looked at us with a relieved smile.
"Look at it." Good to slide the laptop towards him.
Me, Auna and Bidadari came to see the results.
"Wow. Cool nih. Just upload it." I squinted my eyes.
Jobs immediately sent the photo to the admin email of the competition organizer.
That afternoon, we ate the food that had been served with excitement. Although the outcome is unknown.
