The Unconsidered Bungsu
Chapter 59 Meeting His Family



After being satisfied with chatting I took Raka back to the food stall. Pity mom and mbak Sri because the work is also not finished.


" Buk, I went back to the shop. There's still a lot of work to do" I said to Harti's mom.


"Oh yes, this mother will also be ready to close soon. Want PKK arisan so go home quite early," replied Harti.


I pulled Raka's hand and we walked towards my mother's food stall. Rushing I did my job helped by Raka.


" Take Raka sit down and get dirty. It's Aira's work together mbak Sri." Mother rebukes Raka to stop her activities.


" It's okay Mom to finish quickly, I was the one who invited Aira out." Raka gave an excuse. He is an understanding and responsible man.


At 5 pm we prepared to go home As usual mbak Sri already paid first. " My mother brought me home first let Aira wait here." Raka offers to take mom.


" Don't let me walk you on the bike." My mother refused his offer.


" Let Raka be escorted by Buk, I walk slowly. At least 10 minutes Raka's been back here again."


Finally, I was ready to be delivered by Raka. While waiting for me to walk down the shop while looking at the goods on display. It wasn't long before Raka was back.


" We go to the square first ! " bring. I agreed and immediately piggybacked on his bike. Raka runs the bike slowly, because the weather is very sunny this afternoon. In the city park, there are also many children playing.


" Want to sit in the park first what directly go home ? Raka offered. I shook my head, but of course he didn't see it because he was facing forward.


" Just go home, Magrib in a minute. I'd say it's just a muter." I grumbled.


" Yes, Princess, I only offered. How to know if you want to sit down first and buy a favorite snack of the Princess." It even teased me.


" Yes, we buy pempek same fried meatballs first keep going home" I said. Raka pointed her motorbike at the hawker cart I meant.


" Just wear this ! " i said when he wanted to pay for my snacks. I took out 2 pieces of money 10 thousands from my pocket and I paid the seller's brother one each.


" Why don't I want to see it ?" ask Raka. " I told you I have an income, too. Every Saturday and Sunday I sell it." he continued.


" I know, but it's for your college needs. Already ah, yuk home ! " take me before we argue again about this.


Raka turns on the bike, I'm hitchhiking and we're home. Until Raka's house I entered but she chose to sit on the terrace


I put the basket in the living room and then I went out and sat on the porch with Raka.


" You take a shower, we go to my house. Would you ? " Raka took me to her house.


" You'll have to go back to Jogja tomorrow, and take me home. Later you go back and forth and take me to sleep last night. Tomorrow's gonna be a bad night." I gave him a reason to reject his invitation.


" Yes, it's not that every dawn still has to wake up there can't be bad luck." He's still quibbling.


" But it will still be sleepy when you sleep last night. Later after dawn even fall asleep again continues to be bad luck." I explained again.


" Oh yes, if so I go home now. Want to prepare the things I want to bring tomorrow." Raka moved from her seat.


" Okay, but don't go out again. Just rest at home and keep sleeping, don't go last night. Let tomorrow morning fresh body and passion for college, "my message to him.


" Sheap Ma'am Guru ! " he answered while saluting me. We laughed together too.


" Tell my mom and dad right away ! " said Raka then got on the bike and immediately darted away.


" Raka has come home ? " ask the mother who just came out of the kitchen. I came out of the room to the mosque.


" It's just now, just asked to be paid to Mom and Dad," I replied as well as conveying Raka's message. I went straight into the room.


I put the bag and cell phone on the room table and rushed to take a shower. It's been hot since. After getting dressed and praying Magrib I sat on the sofa in front of the television while eating snacks I had bought.


" Where did Ra go, how long did he just get home ? " ask Mbak Nia. He came out of the room carrying an Arkana dede. I pinched his cheek from anxiety, until he cried. " Huwaa huwaa ! "


" You haven't answered my question yet 'Where did Raka come ? " Mr Nia repeated her question .


" Just muter to the square continue to buy this snack. Want to ask not ? " i offered her my snacks.


" Want dong fried meatballs," Mbak Nia plucked using a fried meatball fork that I was enjoying on the table. Arkana smoothed her lips to look at her mother who was busy eating basreng.

.Week pass. Saturday afternoon Raka picked me up from the market. And as usual because he brought a motorbike then he drove mom home first and then picked me up.


" Later until the house immediately shower continues to my house, yes" said Raka. It turned out that he had made a promise to take me to meet his family.


" Yes, yes ! " i'll follow Raka's call. He's afraid he'll be offended if I don't want to.


I put the basket in the house and rushed to the bathroom. My mother who had just finished taking a shower rebuked me.


" Where are you going to take a shower ?" ask her. " Want to be invited to Raka's house, "my sahut while closing the bathroom door. I splashed my body with cold water. Berrr.


I finished my shower dressed. I picked up the blouse and my toad pants to make it look more polite.. Rub your face with thin make up. When I'm ready I'm out. Raka was chatting with dad on the porch.


" Sir, we'll excuse you." He said goodbye to dad.


" Oh yes, please. Go home not late at night, yes" father's message later.


Raka turned on the bike and I sat in the back seat. We also went to Raka's house.


" Asalamualaikum ! " i said when I arrived at Raka's house. " Waalaikum salaam ! " say someone from within. Raka opened the door, apparently her sister who just answered her greetings.


My mother and grandmother welcomed me. " Eh there's Aira, yuk here yuk ! " Mum Harti pulled my hand slowly and led me into the living room. There they gather and watch TV.


" Winda, make a drink for Aira ! " harti's mother orders her sister Raka named Winda. The little girl went into the kitchen.


" Sit Aira, meet my family." Raka introduced her family to me. One by one I greet them. From his father, mother, grandparents, and his two younger siblings. Then we talked a lot.


After quite a long chat Raka invites to the terrace. He picked up a guitar in his room and played it while chanting a song. It turns out his taste is the same as mine, he likes Malaysian songs.


" Singing dong, he says he often sang on RW shows." Raka asked me to sing. But of course I naku. I played here just once too.


" Shame ah, I if singing like not to realize the louder the sound. What your family will say. " Raka put her guitar on the chair next to her.


" We talk," he said. He also talked about his time at school. About his gang friends, about his girlfriend, about his parents, about his college.


And it turns out Raka went to college just taking D2. " My father could not afford to fund up to college because he still had 2 younger siblings who still sit in SD and Junior High School. I'm more of a no-college."


" It means one more semester. Mending while looking for a job tomorrow if you finish college will stay nerusin." I give advice, but I don't know if my advice is correct. At least I respect listening to the story.


By 10pm I asked Raka to drive me home. " The tea wasn't drunk yet ." Raka reminded.


We go in and sit in the living room. I sipped half the tea that was almost cold then I put it again on the table. Unexpectedly Raka took it and finished the rest of my tea.


" I'll take you home ! " He also stood. I also stood up, but I looked inside when neither his parents nor his grandparents could be seen.


" No need to say goodbye, they're going to my aunt's house next door." Raka knows that I intend to say goodbye to her parents.


" Yes, please say my regards later" I said later.
