Salto World Wine

Chapter 16: Confession 2

“There's a phone from ‘abang tua’!”

As fast as lightning Wine immediately ran up the stairs. Just waving a hand as mom screams reminds not to run scared of tripping and falling. After arriving at Alin's room, Wine took his phone while exploding towards Wine's mother who immediately got the laughter of the woman.

“Eh brother handsome telfon. Assalamualaikum”

Wine opened right after being on the balcony of the room, sitting on a chair while staring at Arka across the street who seemed to be still in the car.

“Abang not yet to squadron?” Ask Wine again.

The screen that previously displayed the face of Arka is now turning to show a minimalist home building with a very large page.

“ Where is bang?” Wine asked again.

“At home sister. I'll bring you here sometime ya”

Wine shook his head quickly. Their relationship has not been that far to be introduced to their respective families. Regarding Arka who came to the mother's house today, it was only because Wine asked for help to be delivered here. Not intending to introduce the man to father and mother.

“Ko does not want. Why?”

He who had previously sat up, got up and closed the balcony door because Alin and Akhtar mas who were still calling peeked at him from behind the curtain.

like they're just turning them away.

“ Yes No.”

“Reason?”

“Ngga. Not all rejections must have a reason, right bang?”

“Hust. There must be a reason!”

“ Idih maksa”

Wine laughed as Arka clucked while shaking her head. The worried face that Wine had seen this morning had completely disappeared from Arka's countenance, the man now looked exhausted but had no intention of ending the call.

“ What are your plans after the exam?”

Wine's eyeballs point upward, remembering all activities before and after the exam later. The school exam will be held in 2 weeks, and after that there is a study tour of the school, and a graduation party held at one of his classmates.

“ There are study tour activities, graduation parties and intentions after that want to go out with Ocha, Anya. Why bang?”

Arka across there nodded her head, as if she wanted to say something but was stuck in the throat. No longer intending to say it after hearing the series of Wine plans earlier.

“ Why bang?”

Arka who still did not say anything made Wine again ask.

“Ngga so”

“Oh yes udah”

From here Wine could see the change in Arka's facial features that had previously turned into a disappointed spirit. Funny, but sorry at the same time.

Oh God. The face that Wine had seen was flat, it turned out to have millions of expressions behind it. Want it to taste Wine pinched Arka's cheek right now.

“ Yes? Idih not very curious. Forced dong let brother talk?”

Wine laughed afterwards. While behind the balcony curtain there is a sound of fighting to vomit and followed by laughter. If only Arka knew his men were laughing at him right now. Wine was sure this man would instantly turn off the connection.

“ Ngapain maksa. Brother said no so yes udah”

Why is the position reversed now?. Wine that used to love to pull out a cute style of sticking amit-amit and teasing Arka. Now Arka who shows an expression of annoyance but looks cute in the eyes of Wine.

falling in love is amazing.

“Ya already yes.your brother want to enter first. You also slept late at night”

“ Ready commander”

“Assalamualaikum”

“Waalaikumsalam”

Coinciding with the severed connection, Alin immediately plugged his face that intended to mop it up.

“ You're also asleep, it's night. Cieeilah Mahmud can also be sweet-sweet”

“ Idih envy ya” Wine immediately darted into the room with mbak Alin trailing behind him.

“ Deck tomorrow-tomorrow recorded yes if pack Arka telfon”

“ Make a difference in squadron”

“ Poor dong girlfriend Wine”

“ Eat free mbak addin 1 week”

“Deal” Wine directly shook Alin's hand as receipt.

“Ngga there is akhlaknya emang lo dek” mas Akhtar laughed while stroking his own chest. Maybe his girlfriend mbak Alin was saying the mantra ‘amit-amit have a girlfriend like Wine. No akhlaknya’.

School today is different from the days before. The wine that came with the cane to help it run into the spotlight of many other students. Wine believes the news of him having an accident at the racecourse last week must have spread throughout the school. Mister Muis who passed by him looked at him awkwardly before finally walking ahead of him towards the teacher's room.

Let it. Let the man know and understand everything that happened was the impact of his words yesterday.

“ Wine, hiks hiks”

Anya who had come out of nowhere suddenly hit her body while crying as she pleased. Ocha stood up and patted him twice on the shoulder. Ocha had seen his condition yesterday, while Anya could not come to the hospital because she was at her grandmother's house far from the city. The show to the library last week was canceled because Anya went straight to her grandmother's house after coming home from school.

“ Are you healthy? Why go in if the road can not yet?” Ocha said as he picked up Wine's backpack.

“ Next week want to take the test. I don't want to pass the chain in this school one more year.”

Ocha nodded. Anya who was still as excited now helped her walk towards the classroom.

It was good to be sick, Ocha and Anya who had a very minimal level of care changed in an instant.

“ Still at home mom?”

“ Still. Thank you “ Wine sat down after Ocha pulled his chair a little away from the table.

“ If you still can not walk until the exam is finished, you can not join the study tour dong Win?” ask Anya who began to relieve her crying.

Wine nodded. He would obviously choose not to participate in the event rather than make these two friends hassles because they have to overflow it here and there.

“ Ngga. But no papa anyway, anyway I will definitely have other activities”

“ Tumben really lo. Usually the most sad if you can not join the school event that smells of the streets of” Ocha with his kepos radar began to act. “ Same activity who lo?” ask again.

“ Bang Arka”

Anya frowned “ Bang Arka? The soldier who picked us up at the police station?”

Wine nodded. Ocha who had previously stood directly pulled the chair and sat right beside Wine.

“What are you equal to army?”

“ I'm dating with dia”

After that sentence is thrown. Anya who previously sat quietly immediately changed like a possessed person, her own excitement that made some students in this class glance curiously. As fast as lightning Wine pulled Anya back to sit down. If anyone knew Wine was going out with mas-mas, this school would definitely be excited for the second time.

“ Serious lo?” He blinked his eyes repeatedly.

“ Seriously lah. Does the cave seem to be joking now?”

“Ngga sih” Anya shook her head.

The previously curious Ocha only nodded her head as if this was not shocking news. This friend of his might have guessed something was wrong between Wine and the Ark bang.

“ Ko lo no surprise Cha?” ask Wine.

“ Kalo lo not dating bang Arka, I might be shocked”

“ Mean?”

Ocha returned the seat he sat in, then sat in his own seat which was right in front of Wine “ Ngeliat lo who is still alive now even though he was desperate to the racecourse. That means something's weird. And answer mbak Alin possibility you again like the same person”

Wine directly pinch Ocha's head from behind “ Yak! you so follow along with mbak Alin, mas Akhtar talking weirdness I did not die?!”

Ocha didn't reply to Wine, just nodded then pulled out a math book and started working on the problem.

There was no sign of the three of them. I swear I die. people who do not have that morality, emang same menemenan people who do not have morals as well.
