The Stupid Shaft

CHALLENGES

Sure enough, inside the restaurant Deta did not touch the food in the slightest.

Likewise with Angga, he just kept staring at Deta who looked confused.

"What do you see?" asked Angga without taking his eyes off Deta.

"Food." replied Deta briefly.

Hearing Deta's short answer made Angga confused but a second later he was seen holding back his laughter.

"Eat!!!" angga's orders.

"No, thank you." reject the subtle Deta.

Angga touched the plate and then cut the meat that had been waiting to be greedy.

Deta only noticed what Angga was doing while occasionally looking around.

'Food here must be expensive.' Inner Deta.

Deta looked back at Angga who was now swapping his plate for the Deta plate.

"Say!" Angga surprises Deta.

"May I ask?" ask Deta doubtfully.

"Help ...."

"Are you not afraid to spend your salary on just one meal here?" Deta whispered a little while her hand blocked her lips for fear of being heard by other visitors.

'He doesn't think that I'm a poor man, does he?' Inner Angga felt humiliated.

"Then, quickly finish the food so that my money is not wasted!" Angga stared intently at Deta who was staring at him.

'Sound! I dare to look at him. But why don't I dare look at Mr Ricky?' Deta recalled Ricky's request asking her to look at the man.

Angga snapped his finger at Deta who was pensive.

Deta blinked her eyes and brought back her consciousness.

"SPend!!!" Angga thrust the Deta plate to get closer to him.

"I'm sorry, sir," Angga frowned upon hearing that Deta had not changed her calling.

"I mean, Angga. I don't want to eat. Can I go?" Deta was not used to calling Angga by name alone.

"No! Keep me eating!!!" pinta Angga this time but without staring at Deta who was already standing was about to leave.

Out of respect for his teacher, Deta sat back in his chair and saw Angga begin to eat one piece of meat on his plate.

"Why not eat?"

"I told you before, I don't want to eat."

"And I told you before, accompany me to eat!" Angga put his fork and knife on the table.

"While I do, I sit here to accompany you to your meal."

Angga breathed his coarse breath. "Then help me finish all this food." Angga headed for the food on the table with his eyes tails.

"I'm sorry, I can't." said Deta.

'Other refusals.' Inner Angga was getting upset.

"Why?" Angga leaned his body on the chair and folded his hands on his chest.

Seeing Angga's attitude like that, made Deta feel a little guilty for always rejecting him.

Deta breathed deeply. "I can't eat delicious food here. While my family was waiting for me to eat together at home."

***

"That's your house?" Angga pointed to a house that was right in front of him.

A small house but looks very clean. A white painted wooden fence surrounded the house.

There was a big tree in the corner of the yard. Add a shady impression that makes you comfortable in the house.

"Yes, thank you for driving me." Deta smiled then opened the seat belt that wrapped around her body.

"You didn't offer me to come in?" Angga asked as soon as Deta opened the car door.

"If you don't mind." Deta shrugged both of his shoulders.

With pleasure, Angga got out of his car. And picked up some of the food she ordered at the restaurant.

"I can't eat delicious food here. While my family was waiting for me to eat together."

Deta's statement at the restaurant made Angga lose his appetite and choose to wrap all his food.

"Sister!" The girl hit Deta and hugged him tightly.

'So this little girl is his sister.' Angga smiled looking at the beautiful little girl.

Angga knelt down to match the height of the little girl.

"Hello, Pretty,"

The little girl turned her head and saw a tall and handsome man greeting her.

He looked up to Deta. Understanding her little sister's attitude, Deta smiled and rubbed Dania's hair.

"It's okay, Dania, it's sister's teacher. His name is Pak Angga." Deta smiled at Angga.

Angga waved his hand to Dania. "Hello." A small voice came from Dania's mouth.

"Sister brought something for ...," Angga looked at Deta and glanced at Dania.

"Dania's."

"Yes, for Dania."

Angga handed over some of the parcels that Dania received with a cheerful face.

"Thank you." He said before running into the house.

"Witch up like her brother." muttered Angga.

"Yes?" Deta wanted to make sure what she heard.

"Ah .. no." elak Angga.

"All right, thank you for today." Deta smiled and stepped up to enter the house.

But, Deta felt Angga's hand hold her hand.

Deta frowned then turned her head. Sure enough, Angga was holding Deta's hand and looking at her.

For some reason, Deta felt that Angga's gaze this time was very different. Even Angga clasped Deta's hand firmly.

Angga stepped forward to approach Deta, but Deta did not flinch because he was still confused to interpret the gaze of Angga's eyes.

Suddenly Angga was in front of him.

Deta stared at Angga innocently. Trying to guess what the guy thinks.

"Sister!!!" Dito came out of the house and shouted at his brother.

Dito's voice was so loud that it made Angga surprised but not with Deta.

"Please lower your voice, Deck!" Deta made a motion as if she were playing the volume of the radio.

"Mama's looking for Brother." Dito spoke to Deta but his view could not be separated from a foreign figure he did not know.

Deta nodded in understanding.

"Well, thank you for driving me and thank you for the food. Be careful on the road." Deta spoke to Angga while stepping into the house ignoring Angga who was expecting a sweeter farewell.

Dito heard me thumping. Trying to attract the attention of a foreign man in front of him who had not removed his eyes from his brother.

Angga turned to look at Dito who was now looking at him sharply. As if I was investigating something.

'Who is this guy? Where does sister know him?He seems interested in my brother. Is he a good man?' thought Dito.

Inner Dito was giving an assessment to Angga.

"People." Angga stretched out his hand, but did not heed Dito.

"I have no ill intentions for your brother. I just want" Angga's sentence continued Dito. "Kissed her?"

Angga could not hide his surprise. Makes Dito smile cynically.

"He's my brother. Never think of anything bad about her!!!" Dito emphasized his sentence, hoping that it could bully Angga.

Dito turned around and walked inside the house, letting Angga stand still outside his house.

'Why my brother is so stupid.' Dito kept cursing Deta in his heart.

While Angga who continued to see Dito walked until he disappeared from his sight began to smile.

'I love a challenge!!!'
