The Story of Clouds, Rain, and Sun
XII. The Sun Calls the Rain
“OMG, Jimin why are you, Darling?”
Tessa's voice sounded panicked next to Varsha. ‘Jimin’ is the name Tessa gave to her car because of her love for one of the Korean boybands. And right now it seems Jimin is in trouble.
Tessa hurriedly pulled her car over to the edge before the engine died completely. It just so happened that near them there was a big supermarket, so his best friend immediately parked Jimin* into his page.
Today Varsha, Teja, and Tessa are going on a picnic in the city park. After Tessa watched a picnic scene in her favorite Korean drama, she immediately proposed the idea to her best friend. Varsha also immediately agreed to remember Teja who would be happy to get the experience.
Since morning Varsha prepared their provisions eagerly. From typical market snacks, such as risoles, pastels, and lempers to Korean-style menus, kimbap and tteokpokki, Varsha has all been wrapped in a picnic basket. Tessa also has packed badminton equipment and other interesting board games for them to play there.
Unfortunately, only Jimin seemed to be unenthusiastic about their picnic plans. Although Tessa has tried to start it several times, there are no signs of life from her beloved car. Now Jimin's engine is completely dead.
“Tante Tessa apologizes yes, Teja. Looks like Jimin is sick.” Tessa says quietly to Teja.
“Nothing, Aunt. We're healing first Jimin.” Answer Teja trying to comfort Tessa.
“Sorry yes, Var.” He said to Varsha again.
“Nothing, Tes.”
Tessa puts on a guilty smile at her two favorite people. It should be a good day for the three of them. But it seems like fate says something else.
Tessa took a deep breath. Then he immediately contacted the insurance and reported his complaint. Before long, a workshop had contacted him again and reported that they would soon send a crane there.
“Say the crane is likely to arrive in about 30 - 60 minutes again because the road is jammed.” Tessa on Varsha.
“Tempo, want Aunt treat chocolate milkshake?”
“Mau Aunt! Thank you.” Reply Teja nodded excitedly.
They decided to go into the supermarket. Counting while taking shelter from the heat of the sun. Tessa buys Teja a glass of chocolate milkshake and iced coffee for Varsha and herself.
“Err... Our coffee taste is much better, Var.” Tessa's Whisper to Varsha. No wonder the God was so cool to detail his coffee.
“Agree.” Varsha's response smiled.
They spend time in the supermarket waiting for the Tessa crane to arrive.

“Today this Sunday, you invited me for a survey to Supermarket AF, Sur???”
The god walks next to Surya the workaholic. Still in disbelief, his cousin managed to pull him out of bed and brought him here to do a survey. He was also incessantly complaining in Surya's ears just to irritate him.
Supermarket AF is a part of Akasa Food which is owned by Akasa Group. As a potential heir to Akasa Group, Surya often checks reports and conducts field surveys across AG products in turn. Hotels, hardware, electronics, cosmetics, developers and more, all of which he checks without exception. And this time the AF Supermarket is the turn.
“We're almost done and you're still complaining too.” Surya's Commentary on the Gods.
“So you learn next time, don't try your cousin this weekend, or you have to listen to his babble endlessly.” God's words are still angry.
“Haaah. I need coffee..” Added again.
God is a coffee enthusiast. Without that liquid caffeine he could not function properly and his mood also became bad. Like at the moment.
The two handsome men finally went to a small cafe inside the supermarket. But suddenly Surya and the Gods fell silent on the spot. In front of them were already three people who had lately filled a special place in the hearts of the two.
“Tessa!”
The god first greeted and approached the beautiful woman in front of him. He smiled politely at the mother and daughter sitting next to Tessa.
“Varsha, Shirt. Hi!”
“Halo, Om Dewa.”
Varsha and Teja have not known the Gods for too long, although Varsha has seen photos of the Gods in the days of Tessa still has a crush on him. They were quite familiar because the man often visited Tessa's cafe to talk business with his best friend.
“Hai, Brother Dewa.”
Varsha responded with a smile while Tessa simply nodded her head.
“Om Solar!” Sapa Teja is excited.
“Solar Pack.” Varsha said politely.
Surya's heart felt stifled upon hearing Varsha's call to the Gods. Moreover, coupled with the way Varsha called his name so official. Suddenly something was heating up in his chest.
“Hai Teja's. Hello Mama Teja.” Surya replied at last, trying to calm down.
“Oh Varsha and Teja already know Surya apparently.”
“I am now one of the developers at Akasa Game, Om.” Said Teja smiling.
“Ooooh, so.” The god glanced quickly at Surya, displaying a meaningful smile that only Surya responded with an expression of poker face.
“But by the way, what are you guys doing here?” Ask Gods.
“We are waiting for the crane for Aunt Tessa's car, Om.”
Teja also innocently explained how those who had planned to picnic finally did not so because the car Aunt Tessa suddenly broke down. Then it continues until how his mother has prepared a lot of supplies. As well as about Aunt Tessa and her passionate self to spend time together in the city park.

“They're Varsha and Teja, right? What did you tell me about at the gym?”
“You're happy right, I already invited the two of us to their picnic?” The Whisper of the Gods to his cousin.
“You're happy right, have I dragged to the supermarket on Sunday?” Reply Solar.
The two looked at each other and laughed. God and Surya have always been like that. Without having to say in detail, they immediately know the contents of each heart like two twins who have telepathy.
Surya and Dewa have just finished eating the provisions that Varsha made and are now building Tessa's portable badminton net. It didn't take long for the two handsome men to finish. Since their numbers are odd, Varsha decides not to play and watch them alone.
Teja team up with Surya while Dewa with Tessa. The four of them also play double with excitement, pass each other and attack. Although Teja was a child, he was quite good at playing badminton and very competitive. Seeing her little son having fun, brought a smile on Varsha's face.
Then he picked up a sketchbook from inside his bag. Then began to draw the scene in front of him, four people who were playing badminton happily. Varsha sketched the rough and perfected the picture. His hands shaded and gave a thick-thin line in his book.
Because of Varsha's focus, he did not realize only Teja and the Gods were playing. Tessa was already sitting cross-legged exhausted while Surya was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly a cold sensation was felt on his right cheek.
Varsha was surprised and turned her head quickly. Next to him, Surya smiled. One hand pressed cold ice cream against Varsha's cheek. A memory plays on his head.
“Cold, right?” Sun had just placed his cold right palm onto my cheek.
My face warmed up and quickly responded to Sun, “Your own fault. I was offered a dry shirt, but you don't want.” Ledek.
“Yes, I should have just received it. I will definitely look handsome wearing your negligee.”
Then Sun smiled and then laughed a little.
Exactly as it is today.
“Strawberry flavor for Mama Teja.”
Surya's voice instantly restored Varsha's consciousness. He took a deep breath trying to calm himself down.
“Tempo says, Mama Teja likes strawberry flavor.” Surya said again.
Seeing Varsha's shocked expression, Surya felt like cursing himself. Pasting ice cream on Varsha's cheek? What was he thinking until his hands dared to do that??
But Surya's panic was instantly dashed, when he saw two beautiful dimples who decided to pay a visit to Varsha's cheeks now. The beautiful woman was not angry. He even smiled at her.
“Thank you.” Varsha said as she took the ice cream from Surya's hand.
“Good picture.” Praise Surya.
“Ah, thank you, Mr. Surya.”
Varsha smiled again, deepening her sweet dimples. Then he closed the sketchbook and put it back in the bag. Somehow he felt ashamed of his work being seen by Surya. Varsha opened the ice cream and started eating it.
Surya glanced at the beautiful woman who was sitting beside him. What exactly is so different from Varsha compared to other women. Why is the dimpled woman next to her so…
Troubled his mind…
Warming his heart…
Makes him feel comfortable...
“Varsha, would you like to go to the game festival that Akasa Game will hold in a moment?”
Instantly the question came from Surya's mouth. Fast skating without formalities. And he wants Varsha to do the same. To put off their respective polite calls and begin to say his name without any emblem.
