My name is Maira
- Secret of Rani
***
Last week of the third semester break, I spent my time learning to cook with my mom.
Since I was trying to commit to learning to cook, I also had to get up at six in the morning to go to the market with mom.
The first day I was excited, the second day was still upbeat, and I started being lazy on the third day.
She kept encouraging me, and so did Dad.
Dad looks happy because I have breakfast in the morning before you leave for work.
Usually on college days, I only see me at home at night.
On holidays, my mom and dad did free me to wake up as I pleased.
This morning, it was my fifth day learning to cook.
After the market, I immediately washed the vegetables and fish that my mother bought, then I arranged the market snacks that I chose to put on the plate.
As soon as mom returned to the kitchen after putting the laundry in the washing machine, we immediately started cooking.
When the food was ready, I called my dad for breakfast.
Alan's sister, who usually has breakfast at ten, also took breakfast this morning.
Dad left for work at about 07:45 a.m., and alan returned to the room after he left.
As soon as dad left, mom asked me to tidy up the dinner table and wash the dirty dishes.
"Assalamualaikum" said a voice I was very familiar with.
I immediately stopped doing the dishes, then dried my wet hands, then ran forward.
"Waalaikumsalam rani", I replied cheerfully.
"You've woken up" asked Rani.
"Udah dong, I woke up at six in the morning for five days ran", I replied passionately to rani.
"Where do you play me early in the morning gini", I asked rani.
Rani looks confused to answer.
"Emang rani playing just like you doang" said brother alan who just came to the living room, and hit my head with the newspaper owned by father.
"And I'm the only one in this house, Rani's best friend", I replied, wiping my head.
"Wait a minute, Ran, I'm ready" said brother alan, and he went back inside, leaving me who just wanted to reply.
I was confused because alan asked rani to wait, then I saw rani and asked for an answer.
"Now I am not only your best friend Ra, but also your future sister-in-law" whispered rani with a happy smile.
I opened my mouth in surprise, then I pulled Rani's hand into my room.
"Since when, how can, how the story ran", I asked rani when we were in my room.
I was very curious, as well as enthusiastic because I heard from Rani.
Rani then started telling stories, rani said, that she had been harboring feelings for alan since he was in the first grade of First High School.
At that time according to Rani, I invited rani to go home after returning home estrakulikuler.
Rani sees kak alan at home, she is watching tv, when me and Rani come.
Rani immediately liked the new alan brother that day she met.
According to Rani, alan's sister is very sweet using reading glasses.
"Culun ah kak alan if wearing glasses" I said interrupting rani.
Rani just smiled and continued her story.
After Rani sees the incident of kak alan and sita after the graduation convoy, rani chooses to save her feelings for kak alan.
Until finally rani was accepted at the same campus with kak alan.
Rani realizes that her feelings for kak alan are still very clear, and she begins to hope to have kak alan.
When kak alan in hard times because of his relationship with sita began to bad, rani was beside kak alan, to provide comfort and comfort kak alan.
They often spend time together on campus.
Either for lunch, or to the library, when rani asks kak alan to help rani do college assignments.
The attention of the rani who continuously gave to kak alan, finally made kak alan realize his feelings for her.
"Oh, the pantes at that time brother alan nanyain you" I said interjected rani again.
"You don't want to continue" asked Rani, because I interrupted her story again.
I then shut my mouth and promised to hear Rani's story until it was over.
Rani waits for kak alan to end her relationship with sita, and makes sure kak alan has forgotten sita.
Rani then expresses her feelings to kak alan, so rani is sure that kak alan has not thought about sita anymore.
Kak alan immediately accepted rani's statement, and said that he also liked rani.
I smiled hearing all of Rani's stories, and felt very happy.
"I can't know" I told myself.
"You are indeed insensitive, so you will not know" said Rani sneering at me.
"You're not saying that you like the same brother alan from High School, if you're telling me I immediately support" I told rani.
"I just dare to tell nia" said rani.
"Nia knows", I was surprised.
"Yes nia tau", answered rani.
"Evil bad, I'm not told", whine me while hitting Rani's arm slowly.
"The others know", ask me again on rani.
Rani shook her head, Rani said that she was just planning to tell us when we got together.
"But you can get up early today, you can get into a gep" said rani pouting.
"Congratulations rani", I said, then hugged Rani.
"If alan's brother makes you cry, you must tell me, let me catch his hair" I told rani with a serious face.
Rani just laughed, hearing my words.
"Oh seneng deh, my best friend became my sister's boyfriend", I said to rani cheerfully.
"Not that you like yes sita so girlfriend kak alan" said rani glanced at me.
"Make me yes ran, whoever the choice of kak alan I must support, especially now kak alan select you, I support five million percent", I replied persuading rani.
Rani laughed, then hugged me.
"So fitting in solo you have become a girlfriend kak alan dong", asked me on rani.
"No, just deket, I'm your sister's boyfriend for a week" answered rani.
I cried out in excitement, alan walked into my room and scolded me for being noisy.
"Ran tau no, when alan SMP was he still" I said trying to open the disgrace of kak alan, but kak alan immediately closed my mouth.
"Ran jalan yuk" said kak alan smiling towards rani.
"I bought five chocolate bars home" said the brother whispered in my ear, then took his hand off my mouth, for I began to lick.
"Jorok ah yeh" said brother alan angry again.
"So when alan SMP ran" I said again and alan's brother immediately closed my mouth again.
"Udah ya ra, tomorrow rara ask for any snacks, brother must buyin" said brother alan, with a forced smile while stroking my hair.
Alan immediately pulled Rani's hand out of my room.
Then I called nia.
"Yes ra", said nia across the telvon.
"What are you" I asked nia.
"Just play laptop" replied Nia.
"Why" asked nia again on the phone.
"You bought a laptop with your father" I asked nia.
"Yes, my computer is broken" replied nia, relaxing.
"What's ra" asked nia, again asking why I called nia.
"You have a secret that you want to pass to me" I asked nia.
"Confidentiality, what secret", she asked back, in a confused tone.
"Rani's secret", I said casually.
Nia sounded to change her position.
"What do you mean", asked nia trying to cover her surprise.
"Udah, don't lie" I replied to nia.
"Rani has told you all, if she likes the same kak alan from High School, just went the same kak alan out" I said at length to nia.
"They're finally together" asked nia.
"Yes", I replied shouting with excitement.
I then heard nia's scream from across the phone.
"When he said ra", asked nia.
"Last week he said", I answered while biting my long fingernails.
"Our finishing orders from solo, Monday rani dateng asked for an opinion" said nia.
Me and Nia then made an appointment to gather at Kiki's house, next week.
