"Pursue love. Without a desperate grin."
~Angga~
Wulan turned her head towards the front door when she heard the roar of the motor getting closer and entered the garage of the house. The middle-aged woman got up and walked to the terrace to make sure what kind of living things dared to come to her house, especially in her anxious state to the firstborn.
Arial grimaced a little in horror when he saw Wulan already standing in the doorway while shaking his head giving a warning. Kevin and Angga appear behind Wulan's shoulder.
"Arial," call Wulan firmly.
Atmosphere freezes. Arial turned and walked over. "Sorry, Ma. There was a need" explained Arial before the next question was thrown
"What's important?" ask Wulan coldly.
Arial becomes stiff. "De-Demi is a new piece of heart" replied Mas Tere Liye's Arial.
"Maklum Aunty, the youth," added Angga while grinning. On his forehead it seems to say '*****lo' which is intended for Arial.
Wulan chose to quietly look at Arial firmly.
"Okay, Ma. Arial tau, Mama beautiful. Very comfortable to see Arial," Arial goda up and down his eyebrows and develop his smile. Trying to melt the atmosphere stiff.
"Arial," called Wulan again firmly.
"Yes, Ma," said the fine Arial.
"From tomorrow your pocket money Mama cut in half to two weeks," said Wulan firmly back inside the house.
Angga and Kevin started giggling holding back the laughter when Wulan had already left his place.
"Loh Ma, how is that?" Arial runs after Wulan's steps and chooses to let his two best friends laugh to the satisfaction.
"Think of it yourself," Wulan replied without turning her head. "Go don't say, come home wet, the reason is for someone's heart," Wulan added.
"So Mama has not come home yet" Arial said, although he actually passed Wulan at the fork in the road to the gate of the complex area.
"Your pocket money is cut in half" said Wulan quickly left Arial.
Arial exhaled slowly then turned his body and looked at his two friends who only responded by shrugging their shoulders. "God," he murmured.
Angga and Kevin threw eyes at each other. They walked closer.
"Patience, Bro." Kevin patted Arial on the shoulder with concern.
"Tabah my friend," added Angga embracing Arial and cuey with Arial's body still soaking wet.
"Mending lo shower keep changing clothes. In the wind just know the taste, lo!" kevin's orders a little pressure at the end of his speech.

Arial walked out of the bathroom, his hands moving to dry his wet hair with a towel. While Kevin and Angga are still busy ruffling the comic collection that was sequestered and stored in the cardboard by the Master.
"Comic nyimpen wills can be*****lo, Al," said Kevin flatly found the comic he was looking for.
Arial is silent.
"Bring us up?" pinta Angga.
"Hm" said Arial, nodding lightly.
Kevin turned his face towards Arial. Staring at him clingy with a slightly wrinkled forehead.
"Why?" asked Arial while wearing clothes.
"Ngebelain what the hell do you want to do?" search Kevin to the points. He was suspicious of what Arial had done.
"Elsa," answered Arial slowly, briefly, densely and clearly.
Kevin and Angga glared. "Emang the Elsa said what else are you?" tanya Angga.
"He's SMS me." Arial hung his words.
"How's SMS?" ask Angga impatiently.
"He said gini." Arial sighed for a moment, "The point is that he stopped wishing for me," Arial continued up and down his eyebrows.
"Why lo's eyebrows? Whisper?" keep Kevin.
"OKAY. How then?" alihan Angga didn't care about Kevin's question.
"Yes, I'm testing" replied Arial.
"You want me to take this boy," Angga grumbled.
Kevin laughed loudly. "Santet. Let's know the taste!" yells.
Arial responded by smiling widely. "Gue went to Elsa's house to apologize to her," said Arial straighten out the bleakness of Angga's butek brain.
"Continue?" kevin is still curious about the continuation of Arial's story.
"Keep what? Want to be a parking lot?" sahut Arial joke.
Kevin clucked. "I have Nyesel," he said.
Arial laughed softly. "Look easy." He sat his ass on the carpet.
"Keep your decision what?" continued Kevin.
"Still chasing Nita?" added Angga.
Arial nodded briefly.
"You sure?" Kevin looked at Arial doubtfully.
Arial nodded again.
"Sok lo! The movement just does not exist," said Angga anxious.
"Slowly," Kevin continued.
"Just relax," Arial replied and laid his body on the bed. The sleepiness started to attack him slowly.
"Whatever you!" exclaimed Kevin took the nearest pillow then threw it at Arial.
Arial caught it right. "Thanks. I'm sleepy" he said, developing his permanent smile. Cuek with Kevin who wants to swallow it round and round.
"Sue lo!" angga is with Kevin.
Arial closed his eyes and pretended to snore loudly. Deliberately made his two best friends rise in blood and quickly leave his sacred room.

The phone ringer faintly sounded. Arial opened his eyes slowly, still feeling heavy. But the orange tinge that entered his room made him realize that the day had begun to evening. Arial grabbed his phone on the nightstand. A short message came in.
Anonymous: Sorry to interrupt. I'm Nita. Tomorrow Ms. Ambar asks us to make a group.
Arial immediately rose from his sleep. Stare at her phone screen with questions and then type a short message to reply to a message from Nita.
Arial : What group?
Arial frowned. Two minutes later Nita replied to her message.
Nita: I, lo, Gilang, Elsa, Jojo, Aura, Juno have become anti-remed physics team.
Arial : Okay. Thanks info.

Nita stared at her phone screen in disbelief. "Buckoo! Flat is really a child," he wrote slowly.
"Why baby?" mayang asked softly because he was curious about the quiet voice of his daughter.
"Oh. No, Bun," replied Nita shaking her head and smiling sweetly.

Arial looked towards the front of the bed. His two best friends were fast asleep with comics strewn everywhere. Arial sighed resignedly while stroking his chest. "Save my servant, O Allah," he said slowly.
Arial immediately got up and walked out of his room. Letting his two magical spirits stay asleep on his carpet.
"Sister," said Chika smiling to herself.
"Hm," said Arial lazily.
Chika moved her lips. But soon he smiled again. "Out yuk?" bring him.
"No way," Arial refused.
"Why?" ask Chika a little spoiled.
"In my room there's my friend. If left behind, can anchor the house," replied Arial origin.
Chika hissing. "No, it is!"
"Which mom?" than Arial.
"Go. Meeting with the client," replied Chika.
Arial nodded his head. "Well, yuk?" he stretched out his hand.
Chika smiled as always. He immediately grabbed Arial's hand. Embracing Arial's hand tightly. A sense of pleasure began to envelop his entire heart. Just this time Arial wants to be invited out together in his spare time.
And Arial was happy to give up his hand to be cuddled spoiled by his sister.
The age difference of up to five years makes Arial must be mature. Act as parents to Chika when both parents go out of town for days. Moreover, Arial does not rely too much on helpers in his home.
"Where are we going?" tanya Arial opened her mouth just as she was about to come out of the courtyard of the house.
"I'm hungry" Chika replied as she held onto her stomach.
"What do you want to eat?" asked Arial attentively.
Chika pursed her lips, tapping her finger on the forehead. Think "Hm ... eat meatballs in front huh?" said later.
"Hm." Arial nodded.
Chika smiled back. Tumben, his mind is happy.
The rain had been gone for fifteen minutes. The wet configuration and exposure to twilight rays is like making a diamond beam on asphalt. Bright and orange. Arial enjoys every step of the way to the front of the complex just four hundred meters from his home, his sense of smell enjoying every fragrant foliage and wet soil. Makes him feel peaceful. Until unconscious his steps ended at the base of the meatballs owned by Mang Nurdin.
Arial. "A little bit" he answered.
"Mangs. Meatballs two. Both of them do not get too pityed," Chika explained to Mang Nurdin.
"Yes, Neng," said Mang Nurdin accompanied by a nod and a smile. Indeed, being a trader should be friendly and warm. If the merchant is jutek, cuek, it's ugly. Don't buy it. Find it somewhere else! That's the principle of Arial.
Arial walk. He prefers to sit on the sidewalk that is just a mat of woven. Chika follows him and takes a seat right next to Arial.
"Cold, brother?" Chika rubbed her two palms.
Arial looked at him flatly. "Here or wrapped?" he seemed to understand that his sister was cold.
"Here you are" replied Chika enthusiastically. He also wants to enjoy a tinge of orange that is still radiated between the branches of shady trees. In front of the housing complex where he lived there were indeed many rows of large trees that adorned the shoulder of the road and it was also what made this housing complex feel cool and beautiful.
Arial only nodded briefly.
"Sister," call Chika slowly. There was something he wanted to tell her about his love story. Chika prepares all the oxygen from various sources. He really wanted to pour out his heart.
"Hm," said Arial flat.
"I want a story" said Chika.
"What?" arial asked without looking at Chika's face which started to get wet by her cold sweat which also soaked her palms.
"Temenku--" Chika's speech was interrupted along with the arrival of Mang Nurdin who brought two bowls of meatballs.
Arial developed a smile in a friendly manner. "Still Mang" said Arial received the meatball.
"Yes Jang" Mang Nurdin replied warmly.
"Still Mang," after Chika was friendly but had to resist the annoyance that her outpouring of events had to carry out sponsorship.
"Sama-sama Neng," Mang Nurdin replied as warmly and then passed to serve other customers.
Chika sighed patiently.
"What story do you want?" ask Arial suddenly. Start continuing the chat earlier that had experienced the differentiation without permission.
Chika was silent. He tried to calm his heart that suddenly gymnastics not because. Perhaps the first effect he had of being generous with Arial after all these years.
"Diem's cigarette?" arial is ready to hear the story of his beloved sister.
Chika took a slow breath. "At school there are people who like me" he said.
"Man's kayak lo," cried Arial arbitrarily.
Chika hissing. "Truly," Chika convinced with her words.
"Tails horse just do not like you," continued Arial mocking Chika.
"Sister, um! It's so bad to be a person," annoyed Chika refrained from yelling resentfully and uttering harsh words.
"Why? Wh why? Who likes you?" tanya Arial started to seriously hear the story from her sister.
The little girl with the hair smeared took a pause. "Nio," Chika replied briefly.
"Motor times, ah. Nio," said Arial cuek while enjoying the meatball.
"Yes, I'm going out on a motorcycle!" furious Chika violently bit her meatball.
"Lo's been made?" tanya Arial does not care about Chika's situation.
"No, yet" Chika shook her head slowly.
"Keep, you know where he likes you from?"
"So at school he shot me in front of my first-class kids" Chika explained.
Arial nodded his head. "Keep you said what?"
"I asked for time to give you an answer. What do you think Makak?" pinta Chika on her brother's opinion.
"Where's what? Just know the same Nio," replied Arial.
"According to my sister, is it accepted or not?" chika was trying to be patient.
"No" answered Arial briefly.
"Why?" Now Chika dared to raise her face to look at Arial.
"Sok dramatic, pretentious romantic, but unclean," explained Arial did not care about Chika's reaction.
Chika hisses getting more and more annoyed.
"Why? Lo like?"
Chika chose silence.
"You like it, why ask my opinion? Just accept it." Arial looked at Chika sharply.
Chika is back.
"OKAY. Tomorrow I see his son, open him from afar," said Arial mystical.
"Kayak dukun aja," Chika's lips satisfied to be able to reply to Arial's scorn.
"Gue shaman. Lo Mak Attendnya," said Arial not to lose.
Chika piqued her lips. Arial arguing with Arial would only drain his energy. Better to stay quiet and enjoy the food. One more thing, if Arial were to argue forty days and forty nights. There will be no end and it will only be tiring even though the reality is that Arial will not make much noise. That's magic!
"Accept or not?" chika continued impatiently.
Arial exhaled again. "Lagian you're still a kid. It's still rare to clean up" he said painfully. Despite that, his gaze was warm and soothing. This is what makes Chika comfortable when she is at the side of the Big Brother.
Chika lowered her head. Arial's words have a point. He was too small to be romantically involved. Especially if Chika has to look at her brother who until this moment has not felt dating. "Yes already. Chika refused, Nio," said Chika lethargic.
Arial's eyebrows shriveled in wonder. "Why?" tanyakanya.
"Chika, you're a kid."
"Lo rambling?"
Chika shakes. "No."
"Continue?"
"I was just thinking. The words of Brother are true. My sister has never been dating."
Arial nodded in understanding. "That's nothing to think about. The soul does not go where. Learn diligently so that you can be a successful person," he advises.
"Yes Brother." Chika nodded and developed her smile.
Arial laughed warmly as his hand stroked the top of Chika's head affectionately.
His breath stopped in his throat. Chika feels like she really has an older sister. Apparently behind Arial's silence there is still a sense of concern as a brother.
***
Angga. The atmosphere of the room was very quiet. He shook Kevin's body to quickly get up and stop his loud snoring
"Vin. Where's Arial going, Vin? Vin, wake up WOY!" yelling Angga panic. The impact of sleeping in the afternoon turned out to be enough to drive him crazy himself.
Kevin groaned loudly. Stretch his body that feels stiff. "Not knowing me!" kevin glanced a little and closed his eyes again.
"Eh, the chick's sleeping again, she!" furious Angga. "Wake woy! I want maghrib!" he pulled the pillow Kevin was wearing.
"Bother you!" jolt Kevin up and walk towards the living room. Angga hurriedly followed Kevin.
The two of them sat back on the sofa, facing the television.
The sound of the door opening. Kevin looked at the head.
Chika developed her smile. "Eh, Bang Kevin, Bang Angga. You up?" soft sap.
Kevin and Angga haha-hehe. "Yes, Chik. Where's your brother?" ask Angga.
"Still outside, Bang," Chika replied.
"What's up, Chik?" angga asked, his eyes were fixed on a black package in Chika's hand.
"Bakso. Yuk eat?" bring Chika friendly. Then walk through the living room and end up in the dining room.
Shortly after, Arial appeared.
"Abis where are you?" welcome Kevin sarcastically.
"Eat outside." Arial sauntered leisurely towards the dining room.
Angga hurriedly followed Arial. "Gue is also a laper. Abis eating meatballs huh lo?" exclaim Angga enthusiastically guessing.
"Begging noh, same as me," pointed Arial at Chika with his face.
Angga. He walked up to Chika and sat sweetly in the front seat of the dining table. "Where's your meatball?" asked Angga slightly advancing his face.
"Side the road, Bang," said Chika.
"Ah. Mulung lo ya?!" angga continued to intend to kill Chika.
"Lo likes a grandiose?" connect Arial suddenly then sit next to Angga after taking a soft drink in the refrigerator.
The goose chose silence. He had expected that Arial would defend his sister to death. If necessary, until the last blood.
Chika laughed in satisfaction and glanced at Angga before giving one bowl of meatballs to him and the other to Kevin.
"What meatball?" kevin's interrogation pointed at the meatball with his finger.
"Rat meatballs. Good for his granddaughter worm kayak lo," said Angga sucks.
Kevin squinted his eyes. "Do you want me to buntel you?!" barrage.
"You go, Bang. Eat first. Later on," said Chika mediate the commotion between Angga and Kevin.
While Arial was engrossed himself drinking his soft drink and occasionally checking his phone screen. No notification came in on his phone. He only smiled his smile when he again saw the short message history between himself and the silly girl.
TBC...
