secret message

The night is getting late. Everyone is also enjoying grilled corn. Because tomorrow there is still activity, then they agreed to end the corn burning event. Moreover, the Princess has been yawning.

While they were cleaning up their former event, a sedan car drove slowly into the gallery parking lot. Shortly after, Brandon told Budi, if there are people who want to shop.

“Bby Adel help, mas?”

Budi who was about to walk forward, turned his head towards Adel. He looked confused at first.

“Cuman energy, which Adel has, mas” said Adel Iirih.

Be smiling. He understood what Adel meant by saying that. Adel did not want to hitchhike without helping anything.

“Yuk” reply Budi.

The two of them walked forward accompanied by Madina's eyes. He stared so closely that he did not realize that he was being noticed by the others.

“Truly, want to be my sister?” whispered Princess.

“Ha?”

Madina was surprised to hear the voice of the Princess, very close to her ears. And even more surprised, the Princess's face was not next to her.

“Hi hi hi”

The princess laughed amusedly, finding her paper funnel trick working just fine.

“Astaghfirulloh Princess. Kirain Dedemit, don't use a paper funnel. Make a surprise, ih” grumbled Madina.

“What paper funnel is the paper funnel? Whisper me, right, which makes me surprised? Hi hi hi” moda Putri.

“Cerewet, ah” exchange Madina.

“Ha ha ha ha”

The princess laughed to find her wheelchair directly pushed Madina, into the wooden workshop.

Inside the gallery, Budi received the guest kindly. The guest has a Russian face. He also knew Adel.

He thought that Adel was still his lover, and the number of people behind it, he assumed his second family. It's true, but not parents and in-laws.

“Excuse me mr. Nous. I look for spider bracelets. I can’t find over here. Is that item sold out?”

Budi who was being talked to Adel, turned his head for a moment.

“Oh. There is miss Maria. Covered crab bracelet” replied Budi.

He showed what his guest was looking for.

“Oh. Over here” exclaim Maria happy.

He tried Budi's flagship spider-shaped bracelet. And he looks happy with the shape that fits on his arm.

“Uum. My friend katya told me, that you have another bracelet that can display special ID, besides time, date, and temperature”

“Katya milanova?” Back to asking.

“Yes”

“Oh. That one's. Crab bracelet” says Budi answered Maria's question.

He took one of the crab bracelets, gave it a battery, then showed an LED display hidden in the crab shells.

“Wow, nice” comments Maria.

“May i choose another colour?” ask Maria.

“Sure” reply Short.

She chose the color she liked. Marun red is the color of choice. It looks like a boiled crab.

“Should I give special ID to this bracelet?” ask Budi.

“Yes. I just wanted to ask that of you. You already asked” Maria replied, smiling seductively.

“Oke” comments Budi while chuckling.

“Input this ID, please!” said Maria, while giving a piece of paper to Budi.

“A minute” replied Budi, while receiving the paper.

“Bby Adel help, mas?” ask Adel.

“Still want how?”

“Still, mas”

“Please!” budi answered Adel's question.

“Ijin yes, mas?”

“OK”

Adelpun immediately do the data as written on the paper. Budi pointed towards Adel, as a signal that his bracelet was being worked on.

“Maybe you wanna another item?” ask Budi.

“Actually, yes” Maria replied later.

“What items? Or, what are you looking for, miss Maria?”

Mary smiled first. He put his face closer to Budi's face. As if to whisper, because they were blocked by the storefront.

“I looking for pen holder, with naked couple on there” Maria replied.

In addition to answering Budi's question, Maria seemed to glance down several times, as if telling Budi to lower his gaze.

Instead of looking into the storefront, Budi's eyes were captivated by something beautiful that opened between the buttons of Mary's undyed shirt.

In the corner, Adel looked up at Mary's behavior. She wanted to rebuke him, but he remembered who he was at the moment. He broke his intention.

*scan it*?

Budi not looking at what is round, but black writing scratched on the white circle.

“Oh. I'm sorry, miss Maria. But, that item is not regular item. That just joking item from my carpenter” exclaimed Budi, answering Maria's question. At the same time neutralize the atmosphere.

“What? What you mean that item is limited edition? Not produced animore?” sahut Maria horboh.

“Fortunely, yes. I’m sorry, miss Maria”

“Oh. Its not my lucky” said Maria as if regretting the situation. But his eyes kept asking Budi to look again at the hidden writing.

*scan it? What does that mean*?

“Uuum, maybe you can pre order first, for that special item. I can deliver that order whare ever you want” says Budi gives options.

“How long?”

“Two days to make that masterpiece, and for the delivery, I need to ask to forwarder first” replied Budi.

“Uuum. I call you later” Maria replied.

“Finish"

Adel's voice cried out. He gave the crab bracelet to Maria. And Maria seemed happy with what she got. He immediately paid for the two bracelets, though,

“Thank you miss Maria for shopping at Budi’s galery” said Budi after handing over Maria's groceries.

“You are welcome mr. Nous. Now, I can show off too. Katya is no longer the only one” Maria replied.

“Ha ha ha. You are right” timpal Budi.

Let's say goodbye to Budi and Adel. He teased Adel by holding his right thumb and pinky next to his ears. A sign to ask Budi to call her. Sontak Adel blushed his face.

Shortly after, Maria left the gallery. Heard his car roaring out of the gallery.

“Seneng yes, fluent loving. Call me again. What do you want, try?”

Adel's comments made Budi look up. He smiled amusedly, hearing that comment.

“Kalo aja he came with Katya, first, I added one word behind Idnya” Adel comments again.

“What the hell?” budi Goda.

“Bitc*” replied Adel, while passing go to the back.

Short, solid, but could lead to nuclear war. Luckily, this is happening right now. And Erika was not with him either. Not until nuclear war. Laughing remembering it.

*What do you mean, huh? no QR code, but asked scan*.

I still could not figure out what Maria meant. The paper he was holding had no other code other than writing in Russian.

*Google translate*

Budi felt that the ID written by Maria could be a sentence in Russian. And it could be that the sentence has meaning if translated into Indonesian. Budipun opened the google translator, and scanned the post.

*Bronze seeds scattered in silver expanse*.

*A golden-crowned rose is still fresh standing gallantly*.

*No beetle has come close yet*.

*To suck the nectar of the golden crown*.

At first glance it reads, like an ancient verse to worship something or someone. But for Budi, it's not the Verse.

*Keren kang Sukron. I didn't realize*.

Budi immediately tore up the paper given by Mary until it could not be read again. Still he keeps anyway, for later he burns in the fireplace.

*Whoever you are, your acting is cool, Maria*.

Budi praised Maria as he passed away to his wooden workshop. Leaving the Gallery that he had already locked his front door from inside. For Brandon, he had prepared a water dispenser for him to drink and brew coffee.
