SEPHIRA

Chapters 9's

After Fira and Lia, there were two mild steelmen who were making stand hangers and stacked shelves on the terrace.

"Assalamualaikum," said Fira and Lia.

The two men stopped and looked at him. "Waalaikumsalam," they answered in unison.

"Rest first son," said grandma Uti out carrying a tray of warm tea.

"Thank you ma'am" the two builders replied.

Fira who saw it opened a large white plastic that had the logo of one of the famous minimarkets containing snack-snacks then gave it to the two craftsmen.

"It's mang. I'm sorry for the potluck," said Fira was not tasty.

"No papa neng, this is enough," replied one of the builders.

"So sister let me take it in" said Lia asked for plastic in Fira's hand and then brought it in.

"I came in too, man, come," said Fira following Lia.

"Yes neng, manga," replied one of them. ('Please' in Javanese what are the gengs? Sorry if wrong, please correct it yaw).

"What is this Uti trying to do?" Ask one of the residents who happened to pass by but it is not ethical if not kepo.

"Oh that's Lia just as her cousin wants to make a small business, Iyah," replied Uti's grandmother.

"What is mom?"

"Sell that outfit."

"Oh good or ma'am, here is no one selling clothes. We-we also if you want to buy do not need to go to the market first," said one of the mothers. "Yes that is."

"When did you start selling, Mom?" Ask a mother named Widia.

Grandma Uti was silent for a moment. "Not knowing Wid, maybe two or three more days, because the goods have not come," replied Uti's grandmother.

"Oh yes already or ma'am, hopefully soon the goods. We say yes ma'am," said the three-numbered mothers.

"May tomorrow come the goods."

"Yes, I can't wait."

"Surely the clothes will be good later."

Grandma Uti who still heard their speech smiled happily. Hope the effort is good. Inner grandma Uti.

"Well, when will this end?" Uti's grandmother asked looking at those who were still sculpting the shelves.

"Before you're done ma'am, this is just the top shelf. The stand hanger that was asked was also a ma'am," explained the handyman named Uki without turning to Uti's grandmother.

"Yes, I'm going to Dalem first. This is the tea do not forget to drink," said Uti's grandmother stood up from her seat and then walked in.

Fyi, they use Javanese. Because I can not speak Javanese unless the same Fira and if you use google later fear it means wrong. So you understand.

Before the azan magrib, stacking shelves and stand hangers were ready and placed neatly. Wooden chairs inside the terrace are issued to make it wider.

"This is all how many mang?" Ask Fira to the two builders.

"500 thousand neng, the same cost of craftsmen," replied Dimas. "Oh yes mang, a minute yes," said Fira walking to his room to take the money.

"It's mang. Thank you, yes" Fira said upon her return.

"I should be grateful. Thanks neng, Lia, mom makasi," said Uki friend Dimas.

"Together," replied the three of them.

"Assalamualaikum," said Uki and Dimas.

"Getishalight."

"Finally yes brother," said Lia excited to see a ribbed rack and stand hanger in front of him.

"It's been a little while magrib, quickly you clean up and then pray," said Uti's grandmother.

Lia turned to her grandmother and smiled sweetly. "Ready granny!" Firmly Lia refuted her hand on her forehead like a respectful person then turned to look at Fira. "My brother first yes, Lia has a stomachache," cried Lia running without waiting for Fira's reply. Fira and Uti's grandmother who saw it just shook their heads.

"You also want to rest first while waiting for your sister. Kasian your son from this morning until now you have not rested," said grandma Uti staring at Fira. "No way Grandma, Fira helps you eat, yes" she refused.

"Grandmother cooked this afternoon and the food is still intact and will stay in the panasin again," told Uti's grandmother. "Now you just rest, Lia if the stomach pain is long finished," he continued.

"Yes already Grandma, Fira to the room first," said Fira resigned.

...***...

Dinner at Larry Miller's family palace was dyed with wonder. Dave, the young man rarely eats at home and after eating at home makes his parents and sister confused.

"You why the hell son? Do you really like shrimp?" Ask Mr. Larry who had watched his son eat while the food he let go.

"Enak" answered Dave. Just one word came out of Dave's sexy lips.

Who is not confused by that? Once upon a time, the chef at his house cooked a krispy shrimp and when Dave found out it was a shrimp he got angry with the chef and asked him to get rid of the shrimp. Not because of allergies, but indeed Dave never wanted to eat the name shrimp.

This made Sonya squinted her eyes at the eldest child. "Have you impregnated anyone?" Sonya's question is intimidating.

Dave who heard it choked on the crispy shrimp, not only Dave but Larry also glared his eyes at Sonya's words. Stefi who was beside her brother immediately gave her some water.

"What are you saying Sonya!" Larry looked at his wife. But not imaginary he also thinks the same as his wife.

"Yes I just asked you, because I remember when I was pregnant Dave, mas also like that what I did not like suddenly liked and the doctor also said it was the effect of my pregnancy," sonya looked at her husband.

"What mom said. I can't possibly admit to that!" Dave then left the dining room to his room.

Stefi looked at her brother's departure. "What's the matter, pa?" Ask Stefi.

"That's okay, baby. Stefi continued to eat it yes," replied Larry gently.

"Yes pa."

Dave was stunned to hear the question from his mother, actually he was a little nervous so he chose to leave immediately. She was afraid that someday her mom and dad even her big family would know the truth. Dave is also not ready to be a parent at his young age. That was why he had a girl that he had accidentally knocked him out or gone far away from this city.

Cruel indeed, but it's better according to Dave. For his own good in the future.

Is this really something to do with him. Inner Dave thought.

...SPOI NEXT!...

"Lake in!" Say Dave without turning his eyes toward the door that someone knocked on.

A girl in a cafe work uniform walks in with a vibrating body.

Dave glanced at him briefly and then resumed his work. "What's wrong?" Ask Dave to the point.

"Ma-af sir I'm interrupting your time. I-I came here to ask about my best friend, Sefira sir," said the girl named Desi stammering while bowing her head.

Dave who heard the name Sefira stopped his activities then looked at the employee with a sharp and cold gaze. While Desi who felt the more scary air around him was increasingly frightened.

"Why him?" Ask Dave coldly.

Desi gulped his saliva roughly hearing the cold voice of his superior. "In-he-he-never ma-suk ti-tiga today sir," Desi replied with quivering lips.

"What does this have to do with me?"
