The Unconsidered Bungsu

Chapter 8 The New World

This is my world now. The world of adults. The rupiah fighters. Yach... I who just graduated High School already have to interact with people who hold the principle, If not go yes no eating. Yeah no, anyway ? Yes dong. They are not office employees who have a monthly salary. We have holidays every Sunday and big day. But the salary remains intact.

Those traders if they don't sell, don't get money. Who wants to give free money. Aah ! Never mind. I don't have to think about that. It's not time yet. My only task is to leave in the morning2 to help my mother in the food stall located in front of the market.

This morning as usual food stalls rame by customer. When I came there were two guys in the uniform who were eating. They seem to be new officers. Because it looks young. Seumuran Mas Bayu is younger. When I entered one of my eyes.. He greets.

" Just arrived, Ma'am ? " He looked at me and smiled. " Yes, Mas. "

" It's been known that just came" I murmured as I entered the kitchen. I put the mukena I brought from home into the usual room for prayer. Because I was just washed yesterday.

Nia's mom is out with her boyfriend. Ever since I graduated school and left early in the morning, she's been out a lot. Maybe because there was me who accompanied my mother in the stall. With Sri of course. I'm not complaining anyway. Let her do that. My mother was not angry either. Try if I. Must have been amused.

" His daughter graduated, huh buk.? ". Suddenly I heard the guy who greeted me ask my mom.

" Yes Mas. Just graduated this year. Not yet willing to go to college.even want to help mom in the stall aja, he said. " Answer mother.

What did you say just now ? Not going to college because you want to help at the food stall. What reason is that anyway. Smart mom theatrical. Maybe I'm embarrassed that my son doesn't go to college. So make a reason that if not impressed not able to finance his son's college.

" Maybe I still want to relax, ma'am. " The other guy chimed in.

They are both pretty good too. Especially the one who said hello. Her skin is white her smile is charming. Uup ! How to praise that guy.

" Ahem ". Duuuuhh ! Why also this guy arrived2 enter the kitchen. Pake cleared his throat again.

I looked towards him. He smiled again.

" Help wash your hands, Ma'am. " He approached me, who again made my favorite angel tea. I don't like cold drinks. " Oh yes please Mas.. "

I try to smile too. He is a customer, however. I can't be sniffed. Though in the heart a bit cobbled. There are usually no buyers in the kitchen.

His friend who outside spoke a bit loudly "mbak do not want to be wrestled with Arya. He's a playboy axe cap. " Laughing he said. Seems to be directed at me. " Fuck you ! ".

The guy in the kitchen laughed while washing his hands in the sink next to the table where he made a drink. His name is Arya.

I came out with my warm tea and sat on the front bench. It's a little awkward to be alone with a guy who just met. Just met too.

I'm serving the buyer. The other guy plays HP while eating tengginang. Light snacks are usually fried mothers themselves as a complement in this food stall. There is also a large emping melinjo. Peyek nut, shrimp crackers.

There are also other snacks that are paid by small traders.

A guy named Arya came out of the kitchen and approached me. He sat next to me.

Duuh wants to do this guy. Ganteng. But I have to sell expensive. Especially when I met. " What's his name, Ma'am? " He asked my name.

" aira's. " I answered, I pretended to be down. Shame to see his face. Because he looked at me without blinking. Near again. Why does my chest shake so much.

" What a beautiful name. Aira is from the word water.

" Arya can do it. " I'm still down while playing the tablecloth.

" Call Arya and don't use Mas. I am not old2. He. he. he..". It's joking.

" Yes Mas. Uh.. Aryans. " I was wrong.

" Now don't call me Ma'am dong. I am not old either. Still old there. " I said.

Arya sighed and spoke again "Okay. I'll call Dek Aira. "

" Aira aja's. I'm a Junior High kid called Dek. "

I protested while pursing my lips. But buru2 I shut my mouth. How to become lebay gini.

Arya laughed too. " Yes. Aira "'s ". Next .

" aira's. Don't keep talking. Tuh help Ma'am Sri finish the dirty dishes. " Mommy rebuked me.

It's because2 is a guy . " Yes buk. ' I also stood up and approached Sri who was collecting dirty dishes and glasses. Arya and her friend came out after paying for the food. He waved to me. I just nodded and smiled.

Sri and I brought dirty dishes and glasses to the kitchen.

Sister Sri took a napkin to clean the dining table in front. I wash the glasses and dishes. Mom goes in for drinks . After sipping her drink, my mother said to me

" You are a woman, do not be easily tempted by men2.

I just knew him immediately familiar. ". Mom shows a face she doesn't like

" Well, my mom says we should be buyer-friendly. If I answer them, they won't come back here again, "I defend myself.

" Well, my mother used to scold me when there was a customer who bullied me and I hurt her back. Mother and Mother Nia scolded me at that moment. " I continue to remind you of the events of that time.

" That's different. I used to be angry because what you led was an old customer. She is also the same age as your sister Rina. ". Waah mom to insistent.

" If you're the same age as you or Nia. Highlight his eyes as well as men2 not really. "

I talk at length. I let out a breath..

Well, wrong again. I'm just a head-scalp.
