The Black Riding Prince

5. Not As Expect

THE NEXT day, many students and even sports teachers praised the skills of Ami massage. But as a rival of Ami, Sesil even mocked Ami with the name shaman pijet. Ami entered his class, there was already Randu who was accompanied by Sesil. Sesil turned to the direction that Randu stared at. He immediately frowned and eyes panned furiously as Ami headed for his seat.

"I went to class first, Ran. Don't forget to eat, let's not go to the cafeteria. It's still sore feet." Sesil ordered in a flirtatious tone and then dropped out of Randu's class.

Ami sat in his chair. Randu put down a box of supplies that had been given Sesil at Ami's desk. "Make lo, as a thank you to me because you have healed my sprained leg" said Randu flat.

"This made lo from the kuntilanak right? Why are you giving it to me?"

"Gue just said, as a sign of my gratitude."

"But it's from people to you. It's not really modal. Don't-don't if I love you something, you'll be kasiin to others too." Ami eyes squealing do not like.

"So people think not negative. You've never tried to give me anything."

"Udah is."

"What's? I've never received anything from you."

"Gue gave attention to lo, but you cuek duck aja" said Ami annoyed and looked ahead because the teacher had come.

Randu who has opened his mouth will speak undo his intentions.

THE CANTEEN. As usual, Trio Kiyut was already sitting on one of the canteen benches.

"Why lo, Mi? The face of the blisters is actually rich in ironed clothes." asked Cici.

"So the prince of the white horse I gave provisions to me.."

"Iiiihhh so sweet really.." as usual, Cici interrupted Ami's story.

"But he got it from the kuntilanak!" continued Ami.

"What!?" Cici surprised.

"Where's the story, Mi?" ask Leni casually.

"So this morning when I entered it I saw the kuntilanak in my class, giving bekel to the prince of my white horse. Keep fitting I sit and the kuntilanak go because already bell, the prince of the white horse I give the bekel to me. He said it as a thank you to him." Ami explained.

"Keep, kok lo eat ketoprak anyway, Mi. Relieved for your stomach." commented Cici.

"I am sorry! Why am I eating food from the kuntilanak, I am poisoned again."

"Ooo yes yes. Bener, Mi. Lest there be a poison, if not, maybe there is a pellet, Mi. You're chasing the kuntilanak again, Mi."

Ami and Leni had gawked at Cici's words, but a moment later, they were bearded.

"Yes, Mi. If poison is not possible, kuntilanak demen very ama prince white horse lo. The power is given by pellets, let the prince of white horses you chase the kuntilanak." Leni agrees with Cici.

"iihh time anyway, today's era is still maen pellet-pellet?" Ami frowned.

"Yeah who knows, Mi. For the sake of getting what you want." said Leni who is possessed by Cici.

***

AMI and friends are waiting for an angkot at their school's front stop. Angkot who headed towards the house Leni and Cici had come, the two friends of Ami waved and immediately entered the angkot. Leni's and Cici's houses are indeed unidirectional.

Troubled, Randu came and sat down beside Ami. "How long can I walk normally?" suddenly Randu asked.

"It's usually 3 to 4 days." replied Ami.

Randu nodded.

"Lo ain't riding a bike?"

"Ga. It's hard to get."

"Yes, too." Ami nods. "My number came, I could get well soon. Baayy.."

There were 2 or 3 children who entered the angkot. Randu stared at Ami's departure.

This Sunday, Ami was invited by her mother to the market. Ami's mother opened a grocery store at home. Shopping is fortified Ami and his mother has a lot, Ami also feel tired from the morning pacing in the market.

Kriuukk...

That's not the sound of crispy chicken or fried chicken huh. That's the sound of Ami's stomach being demoed asking to be filled.

"Mom, is it still a long time?" ami asked while holding her stomach.

"Udah all, Mi. Let's eat yuk Mi first, before going home." take her mother.

Ami immediately smiled brilliantly like a toothpaste advertisement. "Brakeeep! This is Ami's smile from Mom. You know what Ami wants!"

With the spirit of 45 Ami again carrying his groceries and following his mother's steps. Ami and her mother entered a crowded food stall.

"Said Mom, the food here is really good, Mi. Cheap again, keep saying they are really cute servants. Mom wanted to see her servant. Nyobain, yuk." oh." Ami just followed.

Ish, Mommy. It's old, Mom. Inget Babeh's.

She put her groceries under the table, and so did her mother. A maid with a washcloth on her shoulder approached Ami and her mother.

"What do you want, Mom, Mba?" ask the friendly waiter.

The waiter was no less surprised. "Femin!!" But without any awkwardness and embarrassment, the waiter who was indeed Randu, again asked for the order of Ami and her mother.

Ami put on her disappointed face. How can Randu be here? So waitress again! Omegaaaaattt the prince of the white horse lueeeee!!

After Ami's mother mentioned her order, Randu passed. "You know Mi, same her?" ask mother.

"He's Ami's classmate, Mak." replied Ami lethargic.

"Noh, your classmate is not ashamed to be a waiter. Though the real saucy, kinclong, smooth rich Perari car." praise Ibu Ami who makes Ami even more pouty.

This incident at noon in the market made Ami cringe to make both Ami's parents and her older brother shake their heads, but no longer dugem. Ami does not want to tell his two friends, he wants to talk directly, not on the phone because it will drain his pulse.

"Basar abege labile." The curse came out of the mouth of Arman, Ami's brother.

DAY monday. As usual all students attended the flag ceremony, just entered the class. Ami felt disappointed every time he saw Randu. Randu invited him to talk, he was silent and sometimes threw away his face. Randu did not understand why his next-door friend had changed so drastically.

During the break, Trio Kiyut finished her meal quickly because she could not wait to hear Ami's story. Ami did not want to tell a story in the canteen, he chose the park behind the school that was quiet visitors to pour out all his heart.

Eagerly curious about Ami's story, Cici and Leni immediately pull Ami into the back garden of the school after finishing her meal.

"Cepet story, I'm already full so ready raga soul if for example story you make me surprised." Todong Cici.

Ami's face was still pouting. "The prince of my white horse changed iteeem.." whined Ami.

Leni and Cici looked at each other, not yet able to digest the intent of the whining of her unstable best friend.

"You mean?" ask Leni.

"I'll help you shop at the market..."

"Cakeep, baek's son." said Cici.

"Ci, diem! Ami Belom finished the story. I'm not talking about your mouth!" threaten Leni who makes Cici spontaneously close her mouth.

"Gue's just as Mom's tired and lager from the morning adventuring in the market, so we're lager. Mum nuju a food stall that rame a buyer, he said the food is good, the price is cheap and the servant is really cute." Ami paused her story.

"My mother was sitting, there was a waiter who was pedekate, we mo pesen what."

"That's not a pedecate, Bakmi! The duty of the waiter begono!" cici protests and this time Leni agrees.

"As far as I am!" tukas Ami's. "And you know who that waitress is?"

"Where do we know! Lo story has not ampe pinis!" cici.

"He's the prince of the white horse lueeeee...." Ami kicked his leg to the ground.

Tik tok tik tok...

Leni and Cici looked at each other, eagerly looking for the meaning of Ami's words. Sometimes the eyes can be an unwritten dictionary.

"You mean Randu!!?" guess Leni and Cici compact.

"My white horse prince is just him, who else." said Ami.

"Wait, wait, you mean, Randu became a waiter at the food stall. Is that?" ask Leni.

"Yeah!!"

"Yeah!!" shock Leni and Cici.

"His time, saucy face, marble-rich skin, school basketball athletes, food stall waitresses.." murmured Cici. "Truly-ener prince horse item, Mi."

"Gue ain't willing my white horse prince to be the item horse prince!" Ami again whined like a child not bought a toy.

"Ga there's no harm, too, Mi. The important thing is that the work is halal." said Leni. Among the three of them, Leni is indeed the way she thinks is sometimes logical.

"So it's wrong, Len. When I want the guy who tajir twisting the money is not abis eaten 7 derivatives 7 bends!"

"Yes, but will be eaten by termites rich news ditipi noh!!" leni is upset with Ami.

"Don't swear my prince's money is eaten by termites!" ami's protest was unacceptable.

"Ga don't be mad at you, Mi. Some of the prince you will not have money so will not be eaten money" said Cici.

"Yes siiih." said Ami slowly and then returned to whining. " Why is Randu not rich Cristiano Ronaldo? The cute, tall, athletic, pinter dabble ball, plus the twisting tajir. Who's trying to melt the same perfectly rich man he's."

Leni and Cici nodded.

Without them knowing, there was someone listening to their conversation. He was walking away with a face and a gaze that was hard to decipher.

**Who is nagging Ami's curse?
