Neighbors Don't Know Themselves

Part 5's

Mira Tea remained standing in front of the door even though I had let her in, maybe my words were slightly insinuating. Frankly I'm sorry, because I usually never insinuate anyone before. Whatever I feel, I'll keep it even though I'll be upset myself. Maybe because of this nature that finally makes me often used by others.

"Let's get some tea, come on in.." I'll take her again.

"Oh yes Cit.." replied Teh Mira who finally followed me inside, then sat in the living room chair.

"Wait for Tea, I'll finish the dishes" I said, rushing off to the strange kitchen without being followed. Usually after opening the door on my own, Teh Mira will go straight in and look for my whereabouts.

"Yes Cit, sorry to bother yah" he said in pleasantries. I became astonished myself to see the lovable Teh Mira sitting in the living room without catching up with me. Let it be, maybe from now on it should be familiarized like this even though it is a little strange at first.

While making coffee, Diki and Diva heard a storm in front and then ran into the kitchen. Without further ado Diki opened the refrigerator, I who was there was also ignored. The open fridge was closed again.

"When what do you want?" I kept it soft despite being a little upset at heart.

Instead of answering, Diki opened the refrigerator again. But of course I close again "With what? Later Ateu Citra fetapin" I said in a firm tone. But still Diki behaved like that. Finally I lost patience, I saw Diki for a long time. But basic is wayward, he does not give up just like that.

"It can't be like that, it's not polite. If you want anything say first to Ateu, then Ateu takein" I said in a slightly loud tone that made him cry. Diva just stupefied me, maybe she felt surprised why I was acting like that. Usually I'll be nice, let alone yell, I'll let whatever they do in my house.

"Why Cit? Diki why?" Teh Mira asked who was coming to the kitchen, probably because she heard her son crying.

"That's Tea, Diki open the refrigerator, I ask what, even cry" I replied.

"Ateu Her image is naughty, glaring at Diki. Diki wants to take ice cream even can not. Huu huu huu.." Diki cried while stomping her feet to the floor.

Tea Mira looks at me unhappy. But I pretended not to see.

"It would be rude to open someone else's refrigerator" I replied. Maybe Tea Mira was also surprised at my change of attitude, four days did not meet I changed a lot. But now I don't care even if I feel a little bad at heart. Diki and Diva must indeed be taught manners even if a little late.

"What do you want?" Tanya Teh Mira finally.

"Wanted ice cream" he shouted.

"Diva too.." his sister started whining.

I opened the fridge and took out 2 chocolate-flavored ice cream sticks and handed them to Diki and Diva one each.

"Don't want that one.. Diki wanted to use a container" Diki instead threw the ice cream I gave. I glared again at him.

Shortly after, Teh Mira caught up with me while dragging Diki who was still crying. Actually in my heart I feel unbearable, they do it right because I was also the one who was not firm from the beginning. While the ice cream rations were taken Diva.

"Sorry Diki ya Cit, his name is also children. Indusin mah is not obedient, especially they know it was Ateu Citra is good not fierce like now." Teh Mira said with an awkward smile but seemed to insinuate me, but I chose not to respond.

"Teteh actually came here to ask for help" he continued again while sitting in the chair opposite me. My heart feels bad again, it must want a minjem of money.

"You need to pay 500 thousand, make Aril want a practice exam.."

I was silent for a moment, this time my guess was right again because events like this were like de javu that kept repeating.

"Where is Cit, isn't there? You see Teteh confused want to pinjem where else if not to Citra. Then the money will be paid the same debt that was yesterday." Further again.

"I'm sorry Tea, if money like that mah Citra does not exist" I replied while thinking about what other reasons I should give to refuse.

"When there's no Cit?" Serobotnya fast "Please Cit, so much money for Citra. I believe the same image.. Work at Bank Mah must be his salary"

"And I also have a lot of needs or Teh, instead of taking care of the needs of Teteh continues" I answered with annoyed "Lagian all this time Kang Doni mah do not know if Teteh same A Iwan likes money pinjem, and I just love money, not paid anymore. If Kang Doni wants money, where should I say what?"

"Yes, have you said that you have a lot of needs, or want to buy a new bag or what, Doni did not understand?" Tea Mira replied with a rising voice. Then he snorted while folding his hands forward.

"Seek why get angry? Kang Doni mah definitely understand the money I want to use for nothing, but if you help Teteh keep it frankly I object. I also wish I never talked much.!" I reply no less fierce. Let him realize, the present image is no longer the image that used to be submissive.

"You don't have any cash, that's my bracelet. Not long ago I must have paid again really, you don't have to be afraid" he said shamelessly pointing a circular bracelet on my left wrist.

"Astagfirulloh al' adziim.." I said anxiously, I almost claw his lips "Teteh this really well..." I can no longer speak.

"You're well Cit already a lot of friends can-can forget about old friends. Don't you want who's been nemenin you all this time? I ask for help that too stingy for mercy. Did they say it was you?" This time Teh Mira was really angry.

I just looked at her like that.

"You're afraid you're not getting paid, are you? Just calm you do not have to be afraid, money is so small for the Mira mah. If you need your mouth the same mouth of the gossip mothers I bought all.!" Mira Tea shouted while pointing at my face. "Wiki.. Diva... let's go home, watch out for you to mengginjek again the house of people who do not know themselves.!" He said again as he rushed out by slamming the door. I should've broken that index finger. Or I pull her hair out of her head. Or I just step on his mouth. Or.....

My hands shook with anger, but I was more angry at this weak me. I'm really sorry why can't I fight back? All I could do was cry myself to sleep.
