Pursuing the Love of the Widower

The Crack of Sinta's Heart

Gendhis sat pensively on the porch of the house while watching the vehicle downstream on the front road. Shown in his mind, when suddenly Manggala kissed without warning first. The girl immediately touched the surface of the lips while thinking. A moment later, Gendhis picked up the phone placed on the table. He contacted someone who was none other than Sinta.

“Hallo. Ulala,” greet Sinta from across there. The girl's tone sounded very cheerful.

“Hai, mbak. Just won arisan, right? I think it's really cool,” reply Gendhis.

“Ah, not really. I always try to be happy at all times,” said Sinta. “Omong-by the way, what's up?” ask the girl later.

Genphis did not answer immediately. He weighed for a moment what he would say to his co-worker. In fact, Gendhis felt hesitant to discuss things that were too sensitive. However, in retrospect, the girl finally revealed what was bothering her mind. “Mbak,” says Gendhis slowly.

“What's up, Dhis? Is anything serious?” ask Sinta.

“Um .. whether this is serious or not, but ...” Genphis still had doubts.

“Yeah, Dhis. You don't usually think gini. What is it so serious?” ask Sinta more curious.

“No, mbak. It's about that ...” Gendhis words again paused.

“That's what? The Mamat, huh? Denger-denger, he has a crush on you,” Sinta chirp accompanied by a crisp laugh.

“Jeez, mbak. Would I be willing to hang out with Mamat? Idih, no, no. Where is the smell of ketek. That's it, the teeth are yellow. I don't know how many years he brushes his teeth, ” said Gendhis. However, a moment later the girl fell silent and thought. “Yes for mercy.”

“Why else, Dhis?” ask Sinta.

“Means, all this time Chand also looked at me like that huh, mbak? I'm like Mamat. Gosh darn. Embarrassed,” complained Gendhis while patting his forehead.

“Newly awake?” sinta murmured softly, but Gendhis was still able to catch his voice even though it was not very clear.

“What, mbak?”

“Ah, no. So, how?”

Genphis took a deep breath. He stared at the sky for a moment. Trying to find inspiration there. However, it seems like the inspiration is not in place. As a result, even Gendhis found nothing by just looking at the sky. “What if today we go to the salon. Ma'am used to do treatment, so can all recommend what is delicious and I think I need it,” invite Gendhis in the end.

“Wah, can be very. How about in my salon? Incidentally again there is a 50% discount for those who can take care of there. The rates are standard, Dhis. Not too draining wallet,” cetus Sinta.

“Bby, mbak. Who knows better about Bandung. I manut wae,” sahut Gendhis.

“Ya, already. I'll pick up at two o'clock. I happen to have my sister's motorbike again idle. So, we can go directly there do not need to be complicated,” said Sinta again.

“Iya, ibbak. If so, I'm ready first deh.” After a short chat, Gendhis ended the conversation. He rushed in and got ready, as it was already one thirty.

It didn't take long for Gendhis to get ready. He just changed his clothes, then straightened his hair. Incidentally, that day Gendhis had already taken a bath. It is hard to believe because Grandma Sri's granddaughter has bathed twice. Genphis felt her body so light. “I should have found a boyfriend long time ago. That way, I will take a bath,” he thought while reaching for the backpack, then attach the rope on the left shoulder.

“Where to, Neng?” ask Grandma Sri who looks at the grandchild.

“You go for a while, Grandma,” replied Gendhis while wearing his shoes.

Grandma Sri was silent for a while as she continued to observe her teeth. “Oh Yes, Neng. If for example Grandma install stirrup, what color is good?” granny Sri asked, making Gendhis immediately turn his head.

“What color is good, Grandma. As long as it is not made with Grandma,” replied Gendhis with a laugh. However, he quickly took a thousand steps, before the grandmother took his flagship weapon that is the broomstick.

Genphis was a little breathless. He was standing outside the courtyard, precisely the bustling roadside. Since the day was a red date, the traffic atmosphere was much more crowded than usual.

Patiently, Gendhis waited for Sinta's arrival. The distance where the beautiful reporter lived to Grandma Sri's house, took about half an hour. That is also if the road conditions are smooth. While waiting for Sinta, Gendhis checked his phone. He replied to the message sent by Manggala. The guy made sure of their date plans later tonight.

Gendris complained slowly. I don't know what kind of ridiculousness he's doing right now. Gendhis does not know whether by dating Manggala, he can forget the figure of Chand who sucks or not. The girl was so tall that she continued to daydream, while occasionally playing pebbles with her feet.She continued to do this, until she did not realize that Sinta was already in front of her. Gendhis only regained his senses, as Sinta rang the horn loudly.

“Jeez, Ma'am! Shock me. Fortunately my chest did not sag,” said Gendhis while holding his chest in surprise.

Sinta laughed out loud. The sweet and meek girl looked so happy, as she looked at the ridiculous expression that Gendhis had shown. “Ndream, Neng. Come on, our quarry departs,” take him while hinting that Gendhis immediately go up to the back seat. Not to forget he thrust a half face helmet to the tomboy girl who will soon ‘brijrah’ in the feminine direction.

Without wasting any time, Gendhis immediately went up. He wore a helmet after sitting behind Sinta. “Jalan, Mbak,” he said as he patted the shoulder of his co-worker.

Sinta returned to drive the two-wheeled vehicle he drove. The black matic motor leads to a salon that he used to visit to do beauty treatments. The distance is not too far. However, due to crowded road conditions, so that the speed of the motor becomes stagnant.

A few moments later, Sinta turned the bike into a neatly lined shop area. He stopped his second wheeled vehicle in front of the intended beauty salon. “Come. It doesn't look too rame.” Sinta walked in first.

While Gendhis followed with a look of unbecoming face. This time, she did a beauty treatment. Usually, Gendhis comes to the salon just for a haircut. That counts once a year.

“Eh, Sinta Tea,” greet a girl kindly. “What do you want, Tea? Facial, Creambath, or ..”.

“Where, Dhis? What do you want to try?” Instead of answering the salon employee's question, Sinta instead asked Gendhis.

"The full package isn't there? Full body care from the tubers to the soles of the feet. If at the fastfood outlet it is like a message of chicken krispi complete with burger, rice, fries plus soft drinks and ice cream," replied Gendhis while putting on a face without sin.

"What's the show, Dhis? How do you look so excited," whispered Sinta who was curious about the strange attitude of her new partner.

"That ... . Um, anu, Mommy. I'm ... ." Gendhis. He then scratched his head.

"What?" Sinta was getting curious.

"Ang .. anu, I mean Mr. Manggala. She ... she asked me out for a date tonight," replied Gendhis, who immediately surprised and teary-eyed Sinta.
