"Norsk.."
One loud call from behind shocked Bimba from his daydream. Jaja ran the child through the rice rug approaching him.
"What's the thing about running here?"
Bimba welcomes his good friend.
"So that's how you treated my arrival?" Jaja was sitting next to the Bimba.
Without being asked, Jaja grabbed the water bottle in the middle of them.
Glucose glucoses
Like he never drank, he gulped down water without twinkling.
"Did things suddenly come here?"
"Yulia."
Bimba changed his sitting position facing Jaja. His heart thumped loudly hearing the name of the girl called.
"Yulia is here. Maybe he's on vacation in this village "
"Julia's on vacation in this village?"
"Heiii. I saw it myself. But he didn't see me."
Like a plant that is almost dry in the rain, all the joints, hearts and minds of the jungle bloom. Engraved a thin smile on his lips.
"But why did you come to tell me this? Didn't you say that you like Yulia?"
"Hello the handsome Bimba master is brainless."
"Hey hey hey who's brainless?"
Then they both laughed.
"What are you...the words so put in the heart? You think I'm serious? Bimba, Bimba. I was just kidding."
Once again these two friends laugh freely remembering the story of a few days ago.
"Where is Trus Yulia?"
"It looks like he lives with his grandfather. Because I just heard him call an old man with a pangil akong and hug him."
............
That evening a party was held at the home of the grandfather of the Jungle where several of his dext families and grandfather's close friends were present
"What a party is this. I came first, there was no welcome. What else is grilled chicken cooked, that's a long way away." Bimba's whiskers get ready to go to the backyard of his house oruknya.
The atmosphere of the simple party was safe and occasionally there was laughter from everyone present.
Lazily, Bimba took a plate and filled some kind of food into it without looking everywhere.
He passed by a rather angled table that was not occupied by anyone.
"Ehemmmm... Bim!" someone tapped his shoulder.
The fried chicken that Bimba wanted to bite fell because of the clap of the person. The bimba looked at the man.
The young man laughed and chuckled at the treatment of the Jungle.
"Hey. Don't take Bim too seriously. Too focused is not good, later fried chicken flies "laughter Jaja sitting in front of Bimba.
"Fried chicken flying is okay Ja. But if I get swallowed by a barrel of this chicken thigh, won't I bump it up later, huh??"
Bimba knocked Jaja's head with a spoon eating him furious.
"Fate is not too many people come tonight to your party. We can eat a lot. No need for an old story. Just drink a sip of cola."
The two young men laughed remembering an old story where they had to share a drink cola a mouthful of one at an event.
"Other times if there's an event, I'll be the first one to take food, ha ha ha." Jaja's laughter stirred her rice before feeding it into her mouth.
The neem picked up his fried chicken again while observing the guests present.
Suddenly the neem stopped chewing. His shining eyes caught the figure of someone. Then he stood up to the person leaving Jaja who was engrossed in eating his food.
As Yulia looked at the person, she looked up in disbelief. He naturally retreated one step back while closing his mouth.
"Where have you been all this time Yulia," Bimba stared intently at the girl in front of him.
Yulia is so wrong about Bimba. What happened to the former boss? Where he goes or what he does, it has nothing to do with his former boss.
He just mute as his mouth is locked without being opened.
The neem gripped Yulia's hand gently but surely. She wants to hear from Yulia herself where she disappeared since her agreement with Yourle was done
"Follow me," said Bimba slowly pulling the little girl's hand.
They left the place a little far away from the others. Bimba took Yulia to a bamboo hut not far from the party it was being held.
As they headed there, two pairs of eyes watched their movements without flips. From that look was born a smile from the owner of the eye.
"They know my friend" said one man patting his friend on the shoulder.
"Young people are now young to be acquainted. It's good that you are. Aye??" a smiling man returned the applause of his best friend.
Yulia walked sitting at the end of the cottage bench throwing a glance into the darkness of the night decorated with flickering lights of the homes of the villagers.
The neem followed him and sat down beside Julia.
"Mmm what are you mermaids?"
Yulis chuckled as she heard the nickname of Bimba. It had been almost a year he had not heard the name used to call him.
"Well, she laughed. I asked you how are you?"
"Ah I'm ok, sir."
So flat did Yulia answer Bimba's question.
"Now I'm not your mermaid master," said Bimba annoyedly glancing at Yulia.
He stood up then sat on the crossbar of the cottage near Yulia.
"Where have you been hiding for months?"
"Ehhh hiding? Who's hiding mister?"
"Argggg. Don't make me lose my temper, Lia."
"Nobody is hiding, sir. Is anyone hiding? If anything, it's they're not me" Yulia said casually.
"Be serious, Julie. I've been looking for you for months at all colleges and universities. But like you disappeared without a trace. Where are you going?"
"I need to answer that, sir. Of importance? Maybe the master is wrong. Can I go back to the party?"
"Don't go anywhere. Ok if you don't want to tell. It's fine. I'll find out where you're hiding."
"Why should I look for where I am, sir. It's a waste of precious master's time. You don't have to know about me." said Yulia standing up.
But Bimba did not let Julie leave him. He held the girl's hand to keep her from leaving.
"Sorry sir. Maybe we don't know each other. I beg you to let go of my hand," Yulia said firmly.
He began to be uncomfortable with the treatment of the Jungle which was strange for his view.
At that time he did not want anything to do with his arrogant and annoying former boss
"Yulia, I'm sorry for everything I've done. I'm really sorry. Forgive me," said Bimba sincerely. His words shook a little.
Whether the vibration is because it is truly sincere or otherwise, the Jungle also does not understand.
She hugged Yulia tightly without a word. It surprised Yulia herself. He did not know what reaction he had to show. He stood stiffly full of thump.
