When Love Teases
120. New House, Rejeki Ami



The busyness continues. Today Rama and Puput invited a large family to a new home. Mumpung many families from the side of Papi Krishna and Mami Ratna are still gathered, not returning to their respective cities. A small Thanksgiving event was held by presenting ustad. Catering dinner was prepared. Although fairly impromptu events, but smoothly and solemn until the ustad closed the tausyiah with do'a. Officially, starting today Rama and Puput moved house.


"Mommy thinks she'll move in after the reception. Mommy still wants to collect." Mami Ratna looks hard to part ways. With Ibu Sekar and Puput, he just went around the house looking around. And now sitting on the couch in the living room on the second floor.


Downstairs was a bustling family small talk full of laughter while enjoying a meal.


"Said Aa already want to be independent.we will often play to the house of Mami kok." Puput gently rubbed Mami's shoulder that looks sad.


"Bu Ratna was still mending, it was only half an hour away. Whenever it is easy to meet. If I were six hours away. If the most miss vc an. It is a heavy heart to take away the girl child taken away by her husband. But I must be willing because I have a new obligation." Sahut Ibu Sekar who of course feels the same sadness with the iron.


"Yes, Mrs Sekar. Sad but to be willing. Not later also Cia was brought to move with Damar. Ah, feel like just yesterday the kids are funny at the same time annoying and testing patience because it is super active. Now he's grown up and has a new life."


Puput chuckles to be a listener of Mami's small talk reminiscing of Rama's childhood as well as Cia. Connected by Mother who also tells of the childhood of Puput who is tomboyish and prefers to play with boys.


On a cool back porch with ornamental plants displayed in pots at several points. The ripples of the pool with its clear sparkling water reflect the sunlight. Three brothers sitting in a lounge chair enjoying a delicious catering menu.


"Teh, we're going to do it, aren't we?" Ami looked at Aul with both cheeks bulging as his mouth was full of food.


"No. Aa tomorrow there's a practice exam. We will go home after the prayer. " Zaky who represents answers while enjoying the steak on his plate.


"Well, I want to stay in this new house." Ami was disappointed.


"Kan Ami also had to go to the cottage again. Can't skip. Eight more days we'll be back here." Aul mediates while the ante looks down with an agile thumb typing the message.


The banner appeared carrying 2 cups of ice cream and sat down beside Aul who was alone in the long chair.


"I brought you some ice cream. Want strawberries or chocolate? " The banner held out two cups on Aul to choose.


"I am the brown one. Thanks, Brother." Aul accepted accompanied by a sweet smile. "I'll chat back soon." He keeps ice cream on the table.


"Well, I wasn't brought in, brother." Ami Protest.


"Ami, will? This is for Ami. Not eaten yet." The pennant held out her ice cream.


"No need, brother. I'll take it myself." Ami got up while carrying the dirty dishes she used to eat. Zaky left because his phone rang.


"Eat first ice cream liquid hunt. Who else is chattingan?" Panji looked at Aul who was still focusing on his phone. Ice cream is still intact at the table.


"It's over." Aul. Keep your phone on the table. Take her ice cream.


"Barusan chat with Kak Angga. He's training for driving again. Angga doesn't know that I'm in Jakarta anymore. So I explained again at the house of Kak Rama, abis lam event....."


"Running training again? That means he's been taught to drive with her all along?" The banner cut Aul's speech with a narrowed look.


"Yes, three times. Originally in the field, now it's on the road." Clearly Aul was casually scooping his ice cream.


"Why not tell me the same? why not practice at the course? It's safer to be trained by a professional teacher." Panji Chirp.


"Do I have to report any similar activities Kak Panji?" Aul raised both eyebrows.


"Eh, not that either. I am your best friend. So share the story even though I was more often in Bandung. I also chat almost every day. If you're telling me, at least I can give you support, right?"


"Yes, I'm sorry. Next time I'll be more open. At first Brother Angga nanya I can drive no. I answered so badly, I can't. And have a plan for a course. But he made her offer to teach herself to drive. Yeah, I take it for free." Aul chuckles.


"If you want a course, I'm ready to pay. Instead of free it is a mode. Is he being polite? don't hold your hand during practice?" The banner turned flat-faced after knowing Aul was replying to a message with his rival.


"Oh, not dong. Angga is polite. Just giving instructions, explanation of this function. If macem-macem mah I must have kicked the anus. No longer want to be friends with him. "said Aul changed a fierce face.


"Ih, Mr. Panji told me to eat the ice cream. Mine is over. Then yours is only held by doang. Talk while you eat dong." Aul did not know if the mood of the young man beside him was being jealous.


"Udah full, ah." Panji put his ice cream on the table.


"Eh, must be eaten! Don't get used to food or drink. Not that good. Come abisin. It's good ice cream." Aul held out another ice belonging to Panji.


"Later first. There's an email coming in from Prita, the secretary at the boutique." Panji was seriously staring at his phone.


"Liquid hunter, Brother. Read the e-mail while I bribe, will you?"


"That's a hell of a lot." Sahut Panji smiled with a crisp face.


"Hm, my friend is spoiled." Aul. Unmindful start giving a spoonful of ice cream.


...***...


"Where was it? How just came." Rama tos with Akbar and Leo who just said hello. Followed by Damar who was sitting in the living room with Cia.


"Sorry, it's urgent business first." Sahut Akbar who then greeted the view. "Cool the house, Bro."


"Thanks. Do you know who the architect of this house is? You must know." Rama smiled enigmaticly.


"Who is? There are three architects I know well." Akbar knitted his eyebrows together trying to guess.


"Previously.our senior management at the otosport club. He also has a stake in the Bokap lo company. Who is a convert." Rama gives clue.


"Mizyan aka Michael?" Guess Akbar who got the nod of Rama.


"Well, I haven't seen you in a long time. Where does he live now? Is it merit yet?" Akbar looks sparkling.


"Udah son two. One child, one child. His wife is Acehnese. He lives in Bandung. I'll be at my reception."


"Sip. Can reunian if that. All member club as well?"


"Sure. Anyway in addition to the relationship, friends hanging out are also all invited. Except the ex." joked Rama who made everyone laugh.


"Silver if ngundang former same as ngundang riot. Watch it!" Cia who from earlier became a listener, blasting her lips while staring intently.


"What's this talking about the ex?"


All eyes were fixed on the source of the cold-pitched voice. There is a Puput that stands by folding the hands on the chest.


"Honey. We are kidding again. I'm talking about the invited guests." Rama was surprised. Immediately approached and grabbed his wife's shoulder with a pias face.


Puput pulled Rama's hand off his shoulder. "Aa was called Mami above" he said, then with a flat face.


"Darling, wait...." Rama pursued the steps of the Escape who climbed the stairs. Immediately hugged his waist while talking explained.


"Xi xi xi." Said Damar while giggling.


"Now, so pay attention to all the guys. Never talk about ex. That girl likes sensi." Said Cia sweeping his gaze at Damar, Akbar, and Leo.


...***...


Akbar and Leo observed the remaining banquet. One of them comes last until part of the menu is up. Both chose lontong satay as well as orange ice drinks. Sit on the middle carpet.


"Hey, Neng. Here...." Leo waved at the teenage girl who had just picked up ice cream.


"Om, call me?" said Ami who came closer.


"Oh, don't call Om dong. I'm still young." Leo's protest told Ami to sit down.


"Yes when I call aunty, it's a boy."


"Smart answer." Akbar flicked his fingers with a big smile.


"Well, you just found out? Ami is not only smart, but beautiful and cute." replied Ami casually while eating his ice cream.


Akbar chokes satay. Leo laughed off.


"So her name is Ami, huh?" leo asked, interested in talking to the narcissistic girl.


"That's a famous name. His real name is cool."


"Oh yes, can dong Kak Leo same Kak Akbar know whose real name Ami, how old is he?" Leo introduced himself indirectly.


"You know what, you know what?" Challenge Ami without staring at the interlocutor. Prefer to enjoy his chocolate ice cream.


"Said Brother Akbar, you want to know." Leo laughed silently looking at Akbar who was chewing, sniggering.


"Why are you with me? Want to register as a fan, huh?"


Akbar spontaneously laughed, let alone Leo.


"Alas Neng Ami already has fans huh?"Leo was intrigued to keep responding.


"Yes dong. All my fans love souvenirs and pocket money." Ami also passed one by one order of his fan names.


"Well, Brother Leo and Brother Akbar also want to register as Ami fans. Can't you?"


"Hmm, think about it first." Ami tapped his temple.


"Borrow wallet. The chunky!" Leo whispered to Akbar. With a look of surprise, Akbar handed over his wallet.


"Ami, this is good for snacks." Leo pulled out four red sheets from Akbar's purse.


Ami shook her head. "Mostly, Brother."


"No papa. It's from both of us." Sahut Leo's.


"Well, I can if maksa mah. I didn't ask. Thank you, handsome brothers. May the rejek be a blessing." Ami accepted with a big smile.


"Eh, Ami hasn't answered yet. Real name is the same age." Leo reminded.


"Oh yes. My name is Rahmi Ramadhania. 13 Years old. Yes, yes, brother. I'm going to see bestie." Ami pamphit while waving her hands.


"Bro, 13 equals 29 different 16 years. Wanna naw? must be the stress of work gone if you have a wife like Ami." Leo giggled.


"Sableng lo!" Akbar snapped Leo's head nosy match with Ami. "Your salary this month was cut by 2 million!"


"Eh why, boss?" Leo's surprised.


"Lo took my money 400 thousand without permission. The penalty is five times the compensation." Obviously Akbar without load.


"Basic boss stingy. Same with the orphans. Pantesan aja hilal soul mate has not looked at. Peel lo." Ledek Leo with throbbing lips.


"Eh, is Ami really an orphan?" Akbar was surprised.


"Ck, it turns out that the info about the Puput family knows me better than you." Leo devoured satay in his last stab.


Ami circulated a look for Cia's whereabouts among the group of people talking blocks in all the space.


"Ami's! Here...." The call from the direction of the living room made Ami smile widely. What was sought was eating fruit cut a plate together with Damar.


"Sister Cia, I want to go back to Ciamis later abis Duhur with Mother, same Teh Aul, same Aa Zaky. The driver is the same Kak Panji again." Report Ami who sits on the single sofa.


"Why not take another day, plis?" Cia looked disappointed. She was going to take Ami to sleep in her room.


"Today we have to go back to the cottage. A' Zaky also has practical assignments at his school. Can't skip." Obviously Ami while swinging both legs.


"But then it's gonna have to be here again right after the Luput Tea reception, right?" Ask Cia while turning to ask Damar for a wallet.


"God willing, Brother." Ami nodded strongly.


Cia opened the wallet and sought Damar's approval when he took out five red sheets. Without any burden, Damar nodded in agreement.


"It's for a snack Ami, yeah. The one who studied hard, bestie." Cia blinked her eyes.


"Ashiap, Brother." Ami accepted with a full smile. "But Brother Cia, Brother Damar. May the luck be a blessing," he continued. Then kiss the hands of the lovers cheerfully.


"Aamiin." compact Damar and Cia. Yang stared at Ami's departure with an amused smile because the teenager was walking while dancing cheerfully.


"Femin!"


Ami stopped the step on the second staircase and turned around. The goal is now to meet Mom upstairs. Give up the money he gets.


"What's up, Brother Akbar?" Ami frowned. He remembered the name of the man in the flood.


"This is an addition to Ami." Akbar gave a rolled-up red sheet to Ami's palm. "That diligent learning yes, let the big chepet!"


"Huh? Diligent learning it let pinter, brother. I didn't learn to grow up." Ami corrected with a face of protest.


Akbar chuckles. "Smart kid." He passed after wiping the head of Ami wrapped in hijab.


"Sir Akbar, thank you." Shouted Ami because Akbar had already passed far away.


Akbar twisted his body and gave a thumbs up accompanied by a smile.
