The End of the Story

Learn Cook

The clock showed at 12 noon when Andi arrived at Anita's house.

"You're not busy anymore, are you?" ask Anita to Andi.

"No, why?"

"If you have to stop by, teach me how to cook!"

"OK," Andi replied.

Andi and Anitapun got out of the car and went into the house. They are greeted by Anita's housekeeper who has worked there for a long time and knows Andi.

"Not shopping yet?" ask Andi.

"We'll see what's in the fridge first" Anita replied and opened the fridge.

"The main ingredients are chicken and shrimp, now look at the season!"

Anita then took Andi to the kitchen and showed a variety of complete spices there.

"What do you want to cook?" ask Anita.

"Mmmm.... What if the chicken is made with grilled chicken? can we?"

"Can? the fronds can be cooked oyster shrimp sausage, how?"

"Again" Anita replied.

Anita then opened one of the shelves there and took two aprons and gave one to Andi.

"Should I wear this?" ask Andi who refused to wear it.

"Must dong, let your clothes not be dirty," replied Anita then took an apron from Andi's hand and put it on Andi.

"Well, gini will be safe" said Anita while tying the rope at the back of Andi's waist with Anita standing in front of Andi.

Just then Anita could clearly smell the scent of Andi's perfume, making her heart beat a little faster.

Anita then immediately turned around and took the ingredients from the refrigerator.

"Aunt help aunt!" said Anita's housekeeper.

"No need for bi, Anita wants to learn to cook with Andi, aunty rest!"

"Non good."

Andi and Anitapun began to prepare the materials they needed.

After a long time struggling in the kitchen, the smell of the fragrant food they cook began to seep into the nose.

"It smells so good!" said Anita.

"Yes dong, you ready the container, let me finish this!"

Anita then took the plate and bowl. After everything was done, Andi and Anita took him to the dining table.

"I'm eating aunty!" anita said to Andi.

"Can you," Andi replied.

Anita then called her housekeeper and was invited to eat with Andi.

"Waaahh, is this non-Anita cooking?" ask the aunt.

"Anita just help Andi aja bi, how about bi, good right?"

"Enak non, very good," replied the aunt who seemed to be enjoying her meal.

They enjoyed their lunch. After finishing and cleaning it up, Anita invites Andi into her room.

"Have you not been here for a long time?"

"Yes, a lot has changed from your room" replied Andi.

"Yes, the only thing that doesn't change is just this" Anita said as she pulled her pillow.

A photo appears to be under Anita's pillow.

"Your mom?" ask Andi.

"Yes, I always put a picture of my mom here" replied Anita.

Anita then stepped towards the window of her room and stood staring outwards.

"You are lucky Ndi, you have a mother and father who love you, you have a mother and sister who also love you, you have friends and many people who love you," said Anita

"You're also lucky with your life now Nit, there are still many people out there who aren't as lucky as you!" andi walked over to Anita.

"Whenever I'm alone, I always miss my mom, I wish she were by my side and listen to all my stories, tell me what I need to do to make things right, but it's not possible, there I just talk to myself, no one can hear my story what else understand me," said Anita.

Andi then held onto both of Anita's shoulders and turned towards her.

"There I'm Nit, you've always had me, I'll be where you tell stories, where you complain, I'll try to always be there for you," andi said, looking into Anita's eyes.

"I can't tell you everything is the same, I can't tell you" Anita said, releasing Andi's hand from her shoulder and sitting on the edge of her bed.

"Why? because I'm not your mom?" ask Andi.

"because what I'm telling you is going to make your best friend hurt and you're going to hate me, Ndi, I can't let go of Dimas and I can't possibly tell you the same story!" anita in the heart.

"I'm not your mama Nit, I'm not your brother and I don't know you very well, but I'm your friend, I'm going to learn to get to know you better, let you do not feel lonely so you have a place to tell stories and express your heart," said Andi.

"Why? why do you want to do that?" ask Anita.

Andi was silent for a while before answering Anita's question.

"I'm evil as Dini and Dimas, they're your best friends and I've done bad things to them, but why do you still want to be friends with me?"

"Everybody has a Nit past and what you did was a part of your past, time goes on and what happened in the past let it stay in the past, the most important thing now is that you are now in front of me, for how you are now living your life without being overshadowed by the past!" answer Andi.

"Do you believe me?" asked Anita who was now standing in front of Andi.

Andi nodded with confidence even though she knew what Anita was really planning.

"I hope you can keep my trust Nit" said Andi.

"What if I let you down?"

"I can't imagine it, but if I'm wrong because I believe in you, I'll be very disappointed and I'm sure that I'll never see you again, there is no more Anita's name in my life, not even in the past" Andi replied with affirmation.

"That you hate me?"

"No, I don't hate you, but I'm disappointed that you've betrayed the trust I've given you and you should know that disappointment hurts more than hate," answer Andi.

"I will not be disappointed you, I will keep your trust with me" said Anita sure.

Andi just nodded her head by stroking Anita's hair.

Anita then tiptoed and landed her kiss right on Andi's lips, then immediately turned around and came out of her room.

While Andi was still silent in his place, he still could not believe what had just happened.

It happened so quickly without Andi being able to prevent anything else from rejecting it.

Elsewhere, Dimas invited Dini to his home. There were only a few workers there because her mom and dad were out.

Dimas invites Dini to go to the gazebo in the back garden.

Dini sat there, while Dimas laid his body in Early lap.

"Honey, after we get married, where do you want to live?" ask Dimas.

"It's up to you, but if we can stay alone, let's be more independent" replied Dini.

"Are you having a picture of our house?"

"Mmmm... not yet, but for sure, I don't want a house that is too big" replied Dini.

"much? how many?"

"Mmmmmmh.... 11? 12? let's have our own football club hehe....."

Early then pinched Dimas' waist, making Dimas complain of pain.

"I don't care if you want one or two, it's up to you baby because who conceived and gave birth to you, I don't want to burden you with all that," dimas said with his head up looking up at Dini.

"I don't feel burdened Dimas, but if 11. we feel excessive," said Dini who made Dimas chuckle.

Dimas then moved and sat in front of Dini. They stared at each other before Dimas landed his kiss on Dini's lips.

For a while they were clinging to each other before the ringing of the phone made Dimas end it.

"Who?" ask Dini.

"Dear father," replied Dimas and shifted the green arrow.

"Hello pa, what's wrong?"

"Udah first, will be continued again, mama is ready for lunch!" father Dimas replied with a hold on his laughter.

Dimas then immediately ended the call of the papa and brought his eyes around looking for the whereabouts of the papa.

"What's the Dimas?" dini who saw Dimas looked panicked.

"Dear father, papa is here" replied Dimas.

"here? how does that mean?" dini didn't understand.

"Papa saw what we did just now" said Dimas who made Dini cover his face with both hands.

"Are you serious? what did papa say?"

"Come with me!"

"Wait, where are you going?"

"Lunch, mama is ready for lunch" replied Dimas.

"But papa you......"

"Udah aja, papa emang likes ignorant!"

"But I'm ashamed of Dimas, I just went home!"

"Can't be Andini, just tell me what, cuekin, okay?"

"But....."

"Udah, come with me, mama has been waiting," said Dimas then took Dini's hand to be invited into the house.

They walked towards the dining table. There was mom and dad Dimas waiting.

"Hi Din, has it been since?" ask mama Dimas.

"Barusan ma," replied Dini who was trying to behave normally.

"I'm sorry papa disturb, you can continue again after lunch" said papa Dimas casually.

Dini and Dimas just kept quiet by lowering their heads.

"What are you busy doing?" ask the mother.

"Regular ma, they......."

"Father eat first, papa laper really like," said Dimas cut the papa's speech while giving rice on the papa's plate.

"Hahaha...you know that papa is laper!" reply papa Dimas laugh.

"If you know you're busy again, mama must take her lunch back," said mama Dimas who did not understand the meaning of the husband.

"No ma, Dini the same Dimas no longer busy," replied Early.

"Papa does like to digress when it's laper again," said Dimas with an annoyed tone.

Mama Dimas then brought his gaze to the husband who was just silent by holding back his smile.

Mama Dimas then kicked the husband slowly because he felt strange about the situation at that time.

"Later papa's story," said papa Dimas whispered but can be heard clearly by Dini and Dimas.

Dini and Dimas were silent, trying to ignore the words of the father.

After lunch, they chatted for a while before Dimas finally drove Dini home.

"After I get home, you go straight back to the apartment?" ask when they are in the car.

"Dear, I must be here again" Dimas replied by stroking Dini's hair.

Arriving at the Early house, they immediately got out of the car.

"Will Anita bother you later?" ask Dimas Early.

"I hope not dear, he must think again if you want to come to the office," replied Dimas.

"Ease," said Dini.

"Don't think too much dear, I must tell the same story as you if there is anything," said Dimas with his hands held Early.

"Dimas, do you think I should take a cooking course too?"

"Why? you're busy baby, you even go home from the mall usually!"

"Let me cook for you, mother says my cooking is not worth eating" said Dini, bowing her head.

"You can not cook even no problem for me Andini, you are tired of work so do not add the same activities that make you more tired," said Dimas.

"I can take a holiday course, Saturday is Sunday, how?"

"Saturday is the same Sunday for us to spend time together dear, if your weekend is busy, when do we meet it? you don't miss me?"

"Yes, too, but I want to cook Dimas, I tried to follow what was on the yutub but it became a poison!"

Dimas instantly held his laughter when he heard Early's speech.

"You're laughing at me!"

"Hehe... sorry baby, you really want to cook?"

"Yes, I want to study with mom but mom says she'll throw away the ingredients, baby if it doesn't taste good and even throw away the food."

"You ask Andi for help, he can cook!" dimas said he gave advice.

"Andi? yeah, well, I could ask him to help me teach me how to cook, but......"

"But why, baby?"

"Aren't you angry? I'll be with Andi more often later!"

"Why should I be angry? you learn to cook for me and I believe in you Andini, I also believe in Andi, I know how your friendship is," said Dimas.

"Thank you Dimas, you are the most understanding," replied Early with a hug Dimas.

"So your heart makes me dear, I'm there always keep my heart for you" said Dimas

"Yes, definitely," reply Early.

"Now you get into the house, because I have to go back to the apartment!" said Dimas by releasing Dini from his embrace.

Dini nodded her head with a smile.

Dimas then kissed Dini's forehead before she left the house Early.

"i can't restrain you Andini, because if I do me, you will lose your comfort as I did and choose to go as in my dreams, but I also will not escape you from me, I will not, I'm the only man who will be your future Andini"
