Odi's Story

Sixteen

 

After reaching the house of Odi, Dava did not immediately say goodbye.

 

"Sit down. Do not be shy, usually shy too," said Odi while giggling.

Dava came in and sat down on the grey velvet sofa of the living room.

"Di, can I help edit the video?" tawar Dava fad.

Unexpectedly, Odi agreed. "Can. But I don't have money to pay you."

"Santuy, In. Lu mah, like anyone. I'm advertising the afterlife, really."

"Really, huh?"

Dava nodded. "Yes, lah. Time of boongan."

Odi made sure again. "Seriously?"

"Yes. Wherever here, my hunt changes its mind, nih."

Hearing that, Odi's eyes sparkled. "Okay, bud, yeah. I'll change my clothes first." Then immediately to the room.

While waiting for Odi to change clothes, Dava looked around. Many photos of Odi are displayed on the wall or exhibited on the corner table. Portraits from the start of the baby to the present, as if showing the growth of the girl. Strangely, there are no pictures of his parents. Some photos were taken with the grandmother, some were with Gery and Rani, the rest were just portraits alone with various poses. Suddenly the grandmother came out and greeted him in the living room a little to Dava's surprise.

"Eh, there's a guest. This is Odi's schoolmate, huh?" greet grandma friendly.

"Yes, Grandma. I'm Dava," Dava replied with a smile.

"Usually the only ones who play here are Rani and Gery. Grandma Seneng Odi has started many friends."

"Indeed Odi never played with another friend, Grandma?"

"Odi's a little secretive, probably because her parents divorced when she was a child. So he has a hard time trusting others. But since knowing Rani, she started to open up. He used to follow Gery everywhere" Grandma told me.

Dava just nodded his head. "So, Odi has lived with his grandmother from a young age, Grandma?"

"Yes, the father and mother are busy working, so Odi entrusted the same grandmother from being a baby. Before leaving for work, his mother had to leave. But after they separated, Odi instead stayed here," explained grandma.

"Where are Odi's mother and father now, Grandma?"

"There was. His mother in Bekasi and his father in Bandung are married again."

Dava nodded his head. Finally he knew the cause of Odi only had a few friends and was always with Gery. And what is the background of the Odi family. There were actually many things she wanted to ask Grandma. But it feels impolite to ask personal questions. What makes him more curious is why Odi can eat so much during this time.

"Grandmother, Odi ate a lot, huh?" Finally the question came out of his mouth.

Grandma glaring. "That's Odi's habit from being a kid. Odi actually ate normally, but since his father left and his mother was busy working, he became a moody child. Grandma used to say, eat a lot then the sadness will disappear and the sense of happiness will increase. Odi does that, he eats a lot every time he feels sad, angry or happy. And it continues until now."

"Grandma's happy, now there's Dava too. Granny tipped Odi yes, Dava," continued granny.

Odi comes with more casual clothes, home clothes while carrying drinks and snacks. "Then you say Odi yes, Grandma?"

"Ih, you're really into GR, Di. My guy's the same grandma again vent, really."

Odi glares. He doesn't believe. "Times, anyway?"

"Well, don't believe it's okay either."

Odi put on a bad look. Dava was laughing.

"Udah, ah. Don't fight. Grandma didn't say anything, anyway. Yes, grandma entered first," said the grandmother as she passed.

Odi glanced at Dava. "What did grandma say?

"Not saying anything."

"What really?"

"Yes, where's the laptop, I moved the video all I edit."

"Don't grandma say anything?" ask Odin again. He still can't believe it.

"Yes, Di. Very cool, anyway. You eat this." Dava took the banana chips and fed them to Odi's mouth.

While chewing Odi said, "Well if you lie."

"In this section, it's cut, yes." Dava showed me a video of Odi.

"Where? Oh that. Yes, cut it. There I was a big mess. Same that's love effect, dong. Let's roll."

"could. I'm looking for a suitable effect."

After a few minutes of searching, Dava offers several options. "How about this effect?"

"That's lebay. Naw. No," refused Odi.

"This way?"

"No! I was like playing tiktok."

"Well, how is this?"

"That's too ordinary."

Dava's starting to slack off. "Which one?"

"Here let me choose. Move away." Odi shifted the laptop in front of him.

After discovering his taste, Odi said, "Well, this is just cute."

"Eh, close the bottle, this is the first thing you said lebay. Ah well," Dava protested.

"Masa? Yes, yes, yes." Odi grimaced while sticking out his tongue.

"Eeeh I threw you in the swamp too."

They occasionally throw crisp jokes. And strangely enough it makes them even more familiar. There is no more confusion between them. Unwittingly something begins to grow in Dava's heart. Dava is comfortable with Odi. Vice versa.

Suddenly I heard Odi's phone ringing. Dava. Call from Rani. Rushing Odi lifting. "Hallo, Ran?"

"Di, you've not done PR math yet?"

"Belom, that. Kan, make it next week."

"So don't make it tomorrow, huh?"

"No, Pretty. Just calm down."

"Huft, I've been stressed just because of the new inget there is PR. By the way, what are you doing?"

"Gue again nemenin edit video that want to be uploaded to my youtube."

"Nemenin who? Bang Gery?"

"Not." Odi glanced at Dava who was still busy editing.

"Who?"

"Dava."

"Duh, the stickier you get. Yes, I'm afraid to disturb. Bye."

Call disconnected.

"Who's on the phone?" ask Dava for pleasantries. Due to the fact that he already knew the caller was none other than Rani.

"Knee. Ask the regular PR. Yes, yuk. Continue again."

Dava finished editing and uploading the video to youtube Odiodidi. Just a few minutes uploaded, viewers began to arrive and subscribers grew.

"Well, just a few minutes have a lot of people watching."

"Gue sure if you are consistent gini continues, will be a coin with Silver Play Button, Di."

"Yes. Duh, I'm grim. Thanks, Va. If I ask you for help ngedit lo again, would you?"

"Yes, Di. Don't be ngedit, so the girlfriend of the afterlife you aja brother want."

"Did, mode!"

Odi is getting excited about creating other content. Tomorrow, Dava asks him again to create more interesting content. Obviously Odi agreed. Odi believes his popularity will soon defeat Bella's current fame.
