Ndre, I didn't come home today, went straight to Bogor
Andrea frowned while reading a WA message from her mother.
Early in the morning his mother had left, but it was Saturday, usually he worked half a day.
“Assalamu'alaikum's chat. Nengs! Neng Andreee ...” Bi Cicih's cry can be heard from outside.
While curling her hair, Andrea opened the fence. “Included, Bi!”
“Mother was saying Auntie, Neng,” said Bi Cicih, after entering the gate.
“What color, Bi? Try look!”
Bi Cicih looked at Andrea confused. “What do you mean, Neng?”
“Aunty said I fired Auntie, use what color?”
“Ih si Neng mah, send inbok."
“Inbox?Does Aunt have facebook?"
"Have it, Neng. Here's!" Bi Cicih showed off the screen of his phone. The WA conversation there.
"That's WA, Bi."
“Ooh ... He said three more days, Auntie told him to stay here again.”
“Iya, just also send to me.”
Bi Cicih went straight into the kitchen, not long back to approach Andrea who was kayaking on the sofa.
“Neng, Mom Kok lately often duty out of town huh?”
“The name is also coolie, Bi, must be obedient if told to superiors.”
“But first not.” Bi Cicih like to say something, but not so, he turned his body, wanted to go back to the kitchen.
Andrea knew, Bi Cicih was also thinking about something about her mother. Andrea got up from the sofa, looking at the yard of her house overgrown with mango trees from behind curtains.
“Dale hungry no yes?” Andrea mutters.
Gamang again enveloped his heart, he missed with the handsome creature. If he were here, the morning wouldn't be that lonely.
Eliminating the saturation at home, Andrea slid into Ren's house.
“I want to tell you something,” said Andrea. Ren is washing up.
“What? Wait a minute, dry the shoes first ..” Ren churned out the contents of the washing machine.
“You wash shoes in the machine, Ren?” andrea asked, surprised to see Ren take out his shoes from the washing machine, united with clothes. “CCM, ih.”
“What's CCM?”
“Cantics-Beauty Males.”
“Liar cepet.”
“Ngga all washing dishes is also there?”
“You want to do some mouthwash? Let's not be noisy,” said Ren while glaring, then up to the attic where the clothesline. Andrea followed from behind.
“You washed yourself?"
“Here there is no assistant, so I have to be self-sufficient.”
“Good. Where's your mom going?"
"There," Ren replied, briefly.
Andrea looked up from the stairs. Ren's house feels so quiet.
The open attic of Ren's house is quite spacious, delicious to relax. Andrea dropped her ass on the sofa facing the clothesline, enjoying the wind that was waving her hair.
“What's up, anyway?” ask Ren. He dropped his body on the sofa.
“But I hope you don't be surprised, this is the problem of Dale.”
“Dale who? I think I've heard of.” Ren straightened his rolled up clothes hands.
“He was, euuhh .. jin who followed me.” Andrea spoke as calmly as possible so that Ren was not too surprised.
“Wah wahh .. not funny, Ndre.” Ren stood up, looking at Andrea with a face of disbelief.
“Emang me again standup, must be funny.” Andrea looked at Ren's face. “I really followed the genie, Ren. You remember that guy I told you about suddenly being in the room?”
Ren. “Dia?”
“Iya, she's a genie, her name is Dale.”
“So, who was yesterday at that school?”
“Iya, Ren. Sit down first!" Andrea patted the sofa.
Andrea then told Ren everything. He feels Ren is the most appropriate interlocutor, because they have been friends since Junior High. Andrea did not cover anything from Ren.
“Keep now how?Don't tell me you want to take off again that's the culprit.”
“Ngga.”
“Good?”
“But I pity him too in the padlock alone. He's actually good, Ren.”
“Wah, don't make trouble again, Ndre. Do not sympathize like that. Remember Bu Anis' problem, he's sick, Ndre, sick.” Ren convinced Andrea.
“Iya, that's why I feel guilty.”
“Don't hurt because of her tambet.”
Andrea leaned her head against the sofa.
"What do I do, Ren?”
Ren followed Andrea leaning his head.
“So really yes, that pet genie exists? Kirain there's only a bottle genie in Alladin's fairy tale. Turns out the genie padlock is there too. Or maybe he jin bottle Indonesian version, Ndre.” Ren glared. “So want to know, it looks like how.”
Andrea looked at the clouds in the sky. A glimpse of Dale's face was drawn there.
“Ganteng, Ren, if you meet you will also not expect that he jin.”
Ren turned his head towards his best friend, narrowing his already narrowed eyes.
"Where's the handsome with Yadi?”
“Dale,” reply Andrea.
“Gigit?” ask Ren again.
Andrea scrunched her forehead. "The ojek guy? It's Dale."
"Sir Bayu?"
"Yes Dale is."
“Ndre, Ndre!” Ren shook Andrea's shoulder.
“What the hell, Ren, you called the names of guys. I'm no longer possessed either.”
“I'll be afraid of you halu.”
“You accuse me of haluuuu mulu .. Believe me, Ren, and give me feedback!” Andrea put pressure on her tone.
“Yes, but I don't promise, it's something to do with the subtle creatures tau.”
Both are silent now.
“Yes already, I also do not make it, you have been horrified and promised not to be a bucket also I already thank you.”
Ren patted Andrea on the shoulder, giving her strength.
“You brought him here, Ndre?”
“The same that does not look afraid,” said Andrea.
“Especially because it does not look like being afraid, if it looks like I can directly gibeng.” Ren put up the horses.
“Please, as long as I don't open the lock he's locked up.” Andrea kept the padlock on the table. His hands propped up his chin, watching the padlock.
Ren was finally touched to also see his best friend bewildered like that. He loosened the veins of his body that had stiffened earlier, then returned to sit next to Andrea.
“If I think it's better to just leave him there, if necessary return him to your grandfather's house.”
“That's yes?”
Ren nodded.
Brakk!!
The sound of falling goods was heard from the lower floor. Ren hurriedly got down, leaving Andrea in the attic.
“Ren told you, let Ren do it, Mah.” I heard Ren talking to his mother.
Her mother replied, but Andrea could not hear their conversation clearly, as their voices were getting further away, as they were heading for another room.
After Ren's house, Andrea does not go home, but directly to a coffee shop where young children hang out. While relaxing he sought information about the derivative jinn.
He shuddered, the information obtained from the embah of a million people was on average very terrible. But the picture and explanation there is very different from the figure of the genie who had been with him.
During this time Dale acted very well, never disturbing or scaring his family, let alone making him possessed.
Dale is also not scary, too handsome even, except when being a striped, it also seems to be for the sake of doing good, not every time it changes shape.
Andrea tapped on the table in front of her, thinking hard. The internet did not make her curious disappear.
Someone walked by, saw it.
“Andrea?”
Andrea was surprised, opened the headphones she was wearing, then put on a jutek face.
They are now sitting facing.
“Kok can be here?” ask Bite.
“Lu by yourself?” Andrea turned her back while sipping orange ice. He deliberately acted cold, even though he invited the man to sit with him.
“This is my hangout," replied Bite, his hand reprimanding his friend who invited him home. “Sok, tiheula we!” his yell.
Andrea had a chance to look at his face. Pretty, insider.
“Why?” ask Bite.
“Why what?”
“Seeing to its side. Still mad?” ask Bite again. Andrea was wrong.
“Not really, anyways I'm fine too. I don't know if that time got hurt. Only ...”
"What only?" ask Bite.
Andrea did not answer.
“That time I was chasing snatch.” Bite trying to explain. Andrea put on a face of disbelief.
“I again between mothers at the building materials store, suddenly her bag was snatched. Then I went after him, and I went into that house. But because it wants to graze you, finally lost track.”
“Sorry that time I ran away. Afraid also the same fathers who bring machete.” Bite the horse.
A gobble? Andrea laughed in her heart. Bite thinking the fathers brought a machete, even though the joints were broken.
They're speechless. Bite a little groggy too, as Andrea was silent. Not long he moved.
"Then I go first, yes" said Andrea, moving on. Because accompanied by groggy, his movements were too rushed so that his legs were tight.
"Guests ...." Andrea lost her balance, fortunately there was Gigi who quickly restrained her body. They embrace.
"Are you okay?" Bite into his eyes, they stared at each other. Andrea so deg-degan not care.
"Oh, sorry, that's okay" he said, letting go of a hug.
My God, why is my heart pounding? Andrea patted her unclean palms.
"Where are you going?" ask Bite.
"Euhh, go to the book store first. Yes, to the bookstore," answered Andrea, accordingly.
"I happen to be going there too, we'll be together." Bite even offered to offer.
Andrea died a flea. He won't nod, because he actually wants to. For some reason, he enjoyed his heartbeat, wanting more.
Both of them left the coffee shop. Andrea tried to calm down, so as not to fall like that.
Hearing her story about helping her mother, Andrea believes Bite a good boy. He cared so much about his mother, as he seemed, so much for his only mother.
"Keep, your mother's bag hitherto not met?" Andrea asked as she walked to the parking lot.
"Well, how else, the snatch does not give hp number," replied Bite. Makes Andrea smile.
"Oh yeah, actually, those guys didn't bring a machete."
“Hahh? What dong?” Bite in surprise, looking at the sweet girl in front of him smiling. They're like old friends, forgetting that a few minutes ago the girl went all out.
“Sendal.” Andrea shut her mouth, holding back a laugh.
“Totally? If you know sandal mah do not have to run away ..”
Bite along laughing, accompanying Andrea who could not help but laugh.
“She herself broke up, kept walking while nyari nail,” explained Andrea in between her laughter. Bite responded with a funny face.
Andrea felt a little guilty for accusing Bite a bad guy, for thinking he was racing. He was so to help his mother.
Bite happy, Andrea's face was not as cute as before. The tragedy of the machete changed slippers, turning the shock on the girl's face into a touch. In his heart thank him, to the machete, sandal, or whatever it is.
They spend the day at the bookstore. Just looking around, because they actually do not aim to buy books.
Andrea forgot about Dale. Bite makes it warmer, for some reason. His bow of a few days, just vanished.
“Ndre!”
Someone patted his shoulder. Andrea.
“Tante Dina?” Andrea kissed his mother's best friend's hand. Aunt Dina is the helper of her family. He gave his mother a job after her father died.
“What's first?”
“See-see aja, Tan. This is my friend, Bite.”
Aunt Dina has a bite. The two stared at each other. Aunt Dina reminds Bite to someone.
“Gitara.”
“Oh, I am Aunt Dina, her mother's friend Andrea.”
Aunt Dina smiled meaningfully at Andrea. Makes Andrea wrong.
“Tante not to Bogor?” ask Andrea.
“Bogor? Indeed why?”
“Mother today left for Bogor, she said there was a task from the office.”
Aunt Dina thought. “Oh so? How does aunt know?"
Andrea looked at Aunt Dina's face in surprise. Why doesn't he know? While Aunt Dina is her mother's superior in the office.
just keep it connected ...
