Nastity

Chapter 31. The arrival of Ari

Titi got up from her sleep, intending to open the door and see who came and knocked on the door.

Not yet had Titi set foot on the floor of the room, he heard someone unlock the door and answered the greeting that someone said.

After hearing someone open the door, Titi did not get out of bed and continued the fall.

***

" Assalamualaikum." said someone's greeting.

" Waalaikumsalam..

Who yeah? who's it gonna look for?"

mother asked, it was the mother who opened the front door.

When she came out of the room and went to the kitchen, someone knocked on the front door, and she opened it.

" I'm Ari, ma'am, Titi's friend.

Is there a titi, ma'am?" Ari introduces herself to the mother, and asks about Titi.

" O. Titi's friend.

Titi there, please come in. Wait a minute, I'll call Titi first!" mother answered, and asked Ari to enter her house.

After Ari enters and is invited to sit down, mother knocks on Titi's room and opens the door to an unspecified room.

Krreelk...

Mom goes into Titi's room and sees Titi lying down.

Seeing the mother open the door of the room, Titi got up from the fall and asked the mother.

" What's up, ma'am?" ask Titi

" There's Ari ahead, he's looking for you!" answer mother.

" Ari??" titi asked in surprise, she felt she had no promise with Ari, and did not expect Ari would come to her house.

" Yes, meet first, pity if you wait a long time!" mother said anyway.

After mother came out of the room, Titi tidied up her clothes that were slightly tangled due to the fall, she also combed her hair.

After feeling well-groomed, Titi walked out of the room.

He approached Ari and sat in a chair not far from Ari.

" Hi..how are you? tumben played here?" ask Ari.

" Thank God the good news.

Yes, I would like to play here!" answer Ari.

" Want to drink what? wait, I'll go kitchen first!" Titi offers Ari a drink, then wants to move to the kitchen.

" Tea, ma'am!" answer Ari.

Titi heads to the kitchen to make tea for Ari.

When finished, Titi brought two glasses of tea and setoples of banana chips on a tray.

He put one glass of tea in front of Ari and another for himself.

" Drink the tea, Ri..!" tawang Titi

" Yes, thank you!"

answer Ari.

Ari also drank his tea.

Titi just sat watching Ari.

After the incident at the party last night, Titi felt awkward, there was still a sense of shame in her heart when she remembered that she had always been watching Ari at the party.

To get rid of the awkwardness, Titi tried to start her chat.

" Where, did you play here on purpose or just stop by?" ask Titi.

" Witting around, mbak! What was that again?

I'm here to disturb you?" answer and ask Ari.

" Looking around in the room again.

No really, no bother.it just so happens to be nothing!" reply Titi.

" When it's a holiday, what are Titi's activities?" ask Ari again.

" Just take a break, at best some houses.

If you are relaxed, listen to music or read novels." replied Titi again.

" Do you like to listen to music and read novels?" Ari asked, as if in disbelief with Titi's answer.

It was unexpected that Titi liked to listen to music and read novels.

" Yes, just for entertainment and to fill free time while on vacation or when there are no activities at home." Titi explained to Ari.

" That means, maybe Titi has a lot of cassette collections same dong novel?"

" If not a lot, but is a collection of tapes and novels!"

" Wah..can you see the collection of the novels, mbak?"

" Shortly, I'll take it!"

Titi got up from her seat, then walked into her room.

When Titi returns, Ari is drinking her tea.

Titi put the novel on the table, Ari slightly shifted the glass and jar so that Titi could put the novel.

" This is part of the novel, look at it!" titi said to Ari.

Ari also looked at the novel on the table.

He looked at the covers and titles of the novels, then read the synopsis behind the novels.

He looked through all the novels, until he found the novel by Bastian Tito.

Ari smiled, then asked Titi,

" Dear to read this novel too?

This is a novel whose story is funny, a funny sableng swordsman story.

I like to smile at myself, even laugh at myself."

" Yes, the story is very funny.

I also like to laugh when I read the story of Wiro Sableng.

But behind the funny story, there are positive things that can be taken from the story of Wiro Sableng.

Behind the number 212 on Wiro's chest shows the number one as God the one, the creator.

The number two indicates that God created all things in pairs.

For example, there's day there's night, there's heat there's rain, there's life there's dead."

" Wah.mbak impressed also yes with the story of Wiro Sableng.

I love all kinds of novels, right? These many types of novels have a mbak, there are horror, there are romantic, also humor stories."

" Yes, I like to read novels of any type, as long as the story is fun and interesting I must read. Many stories in a story can also be used as lessons."

" Sir, hoby reading huh?

Where's my favorite place to read?"

" Actually not a hobby, just like to read, fill the time when there is no activity.

I prefer to read in the room, can be while lying down, or while listening to music."

" When you're on vacation, don't you like to go for a walk? or maybe go to the movies?"

" No, I'd rather stay at home, if there's no work at home, yeah fall in the room."

" Mom, can I borrow the novel?"

" May, take whatever you want to read. But don't get ripped off or scribbled on?"

" Yes, thank you.

I may not tear or I scribble the novel mbak, later I will not lend again!" ^^^^

" Well, what music do you like?"

" I like to hear dangdut, pop, or slow rock music.

I'm not picky, the important thing is the verse and the rhythm of the song is good to hear".

" I like one of the songs Haji Rhoma Irama, whose title is his pious wife, is,

🎵 Any beauty

🎵 Jewelry world

🎵 Only saleha's wife

🎵 Most beautiful jewelry

" That song inspired me to be a good wife, who could please and make a husband happy, which would be a test to be able to do all that."

" Whoa.mbak nih, like to take wisdom from what is read and heard huh?"

Ari smiles hearing Titi sing a verse of Rhoma Irama song.

" Yes, just take the positive things that can be applied in life.

Learning does not have to be in school, from the events around us we can also make a lesson."

"Don't you like to watch concerts?"

" No, I don't like jostling, yelling at the song you sing, let alone dancing.

I don't like doing all that!"

" It looks like I don't like watching concerts.

You may not like rich things!"

Ari laughs to imagine Titi if watching a concert, he will be a statue in the midst of a boisterous audience.😂😂

Titi and Ari's chat was very exciting.

They discuss what Titi likes to take away from listening to music and reading novels.

Ari was amazed at Titi, he could take good wisdom from what he read and heard.

With those chats, they do not feel awkward anymore, and can chat without shame about their attitude at the party.

They purposely did not discuss the matter of their meeting that night, as they both did not want to feel awkward when discussing it.
