From 14.00 wib, to 21.00 wib, I felt at home in Subandi. I don't know how many glasses of iced tea, presented Ratna.
In fact, there is no discussion of the plot, like a plenary meeting of honorable board members.
"Mas Bro, it's nine o'clock. Want to shower? If you want to take a shower, let us prepare," said Subandi as he glanced at his watch.
"Excuse me?" sewot.
"It's not. Later Mas Bro sultry if not shower," said Subandi clarified the offer of a bath earlier.
"Huhahah!" Normally, no shower is okay. I don't have a bini yet" selorohku.
Subandi's just scratching his head. He did not comment further. The rest of us were immersed in each other's thoughts.
My intention this afternoon to apologize to Subandi, seems to be void. Change another time. I must be sorry.
Before long, he talked about Hira. Mas Bro's. "Every night, the girl was numbered Mas Bro. May I give her Mas Bro's cell phone number?" ask Subandi.
I didn't answer anything, for his question. I don't think it matters. It looks like Subandi is confused, because I haven't answered her question for a long time.
To divert the conversation, I said to Subandi, if you want to take a shower.
"Bro. It was hot in the weather. How am I so hot. Numpang bathe dong, you may not," I said casually.
"Eh..can you really do Mas Bro. Wait, I'll prepare the soap first" said Subandi, then he slid inside.
It wasn't until 5 minutes, he said, I've been allowed to enter the bathroom.
I see, on the lips of the bathtub, there is already liquid detol soap, close to the brush and small toothpaste, new packaging, unopened packaging.
The towel also seemed new, despite its small size. But, at least it can wipe my body after a shower.
Light the bathroom water faucet.
The sound of water taps gurgling, able to refresh my brain that is not clear all day activities. Yep. Every day chatting is not necessarily the direction, same Subandi.
I took a sack of water, I threw it out of the top of my head.
"Brprr!
"Flow down! The jebur! The jebur!"
Bussyet! Fuckin' cold. Understandably, I rarely take a bath at nine in the evening like tonight.
But, even if it is cold, it can at least refresh my body.
As always. I don't like taking long showers. At the most, it's only 15 minutes. I also felt like I took a shower for too long.
At home, there was no one else but me. So, no one told me to hurry out of the bathroom, anyways.
Usually, if there is an incoming phone call, I rush out of the bathroom.
Not from anyone, the call if not from Jumari, yes Subandi.
Those two humans who most often sneered at my calmness.
Sometimes, people want to be alone at home, forced out of the house. The reason is, ask nemani this is what. I don't know. His name is a friend, I like that we can't refuse.
Without a sound, I suddenly appeared in the living room.
"Brprnrr. It's cold, man, the water in your house!" I said suddenly to Subandi's surprise that I saw lying on the sofa.
He opened his eyes, then changed his position. From the ground, then sit down.
"Sorry Mas Bro. Sleep hard on me" said Subandi.
"Yes, I'm also happy. It's night. Continue struggle. See you tomorrow," I chirped at length.
"Hm. Okay Mas Bro. I really sleep this heavy. Thank you for stopping by my hut" he said, rubbing his eyes.
I don't know how many times, he saw me yawning, holding back his sleepiness. So, without further ado, I immediately asked to withdraw from her house.
Some traders pecel catfish roadside, still many buyers. Look at some people buying pecel catfish, at some stalls five times, so I'm hungry.
Had to buy rice, to prop my stomach, so that the worms in my stomach, not on the demo.
I don't know why, I'm a little sorry I ignored Subandi's question. I should have just answered. Eh this in fact, I do not want to answer, aka selling expensive. Ahahahaha! Turns out I still maintain my arrogance, well. Sok cuek same with the affairs of girls, but the original need really!
From this moment on, I promise to change. More open to things that are foreign to me. Including the girl business.

"Mas, how can I ask for Mas Budiman's phone number? Plisssss!" pinta Hira with two cupped palm emoticons.
Subandi is confused, what to answer, a question from Hira.
Hira sends the letter P up to many times to whatsapp Subandi.
Because confused about what to answer, Subandi forced to disable the data package.
"Well how tomorrow if in the office, urged to give the phone number Mas Bro Budiman, can be long again his business," thought Subandi, anxious because he was sent dozens of letters P to his mobile number.
Subandi started to set the strategy. Rotating his brain, looking for a way to bring Hira and Mas Bro Budiman together again.

"Mas, tonight we eat where. It's our wedding anniversary, entering its fifth year." asked Ratna, Subandi's wife who suddenly approached him.
"Deg"
Subandi almost forgot that he, five years ago, for the first and last time, asked Ratna, as a companion for life.
Not wearing a long courtship. Known for only a month, Subandi immediately asked Ratna with wedding gold, a set of prayer equipment.
He felt, in a match with Ratna, none other than the blessing of Mas Bro Budiman. Therefore, Subandi really hopes he can return the favor, by bringing Hira closer to Mas Bro Budiman.
Bringing together two people who are not in line, a tough job. Like upholding wet thread.
Spontaneous, Subandi had an idea, dinner at one of the restaurants that the price of food is not too expensive.
"Bun, then we'll have dinner at the yuk restaurant, let's have a treat." take Subandi to Ratna.
"Really?" ask Ratna doubtfully.
"Yes, my dear, my love, the jewel of my heart, which sucks!" sahut Subandi, while peeping Ratna's forehead.
Simultaneously, Ratna was excited to death.
"Yesssssssss!" pekiknya while scattering hugging Subandi's body tightly.
"Wait, baby, I'm ready to take a shower first" Ratna said, as her legs tried to tiptoe, to reach Subandi's cheeks, then let her catch her.
Subandi tried to neutralize his anxiety. All because Hira urged him to tell Budiman's number.
He was confused because of Mas Bro Budiman's response yesterday, cold and indifferent. So, it seems Subandi is not possible to just tell Ms. Bro Budiman's number, to Hira.
Shown in Subandi's brain, if there will be a world war to seven, if he carelessly handed the mobile number Mas Bro Budiman, to Hira.
"Honey, I'm ajakin Hira with Mas Bro Budiman, can ya?" subandi said asking for permission from Ratna.
Without thinking, Ratna immediately agreed to her husband's request.
"Can wear it. Those two are your best friends, baby. It's good to be invited. More exciting certainly at our dinner," said Ratna without burden.
Subandi felt grateful for having been betrothed to Ratna. Women who do not do much, and accept Subandi, as it is.
So does the in-law, it feels like Subandi wants to bow down to gratitude every day, because fate has given him the most beautiful gift, a kind and patient in-law.
Not only that, brothers-in-law Subandi, also good everything. However, on the other hand, Subandi still felt lonely. Because, at the age of five years his marriage with Ratna, he never got blessed with a child. Although the wait is endless, Subandi never gave up. He was convinced, and continued to pray, that God might grant his request someday.(continue)
