Puput felt that there was no right opportunity to talk to Rama about the arrival of Karenina to Mami's house. At the office this afternoon, the husband looked serious about studying the files. There is suspicion of misappropriation of funds. Several times caught the corner of the eye, her husband was massaging his forehead.
Even at home after dinner, Rama entered his study room continuing the unfinished work while in the office.
Puput understand the busyness of the husband. He chose to relax in the living room on the second floor while turning on the television. Open the phone to check the incoming message.
[Put, thank you for it by the way]
[Like to 😘]
[That makes Dwi mbak with Pak Hendra most tomorrow I bring all of you to the office yes, Put]
Smiling Puput got a message from Via who came home from work stopped by Mom's house to pick up souvenirs. Puput replies with thumbs up emoji.
Puput switched to contact his sister, Aul. I want to know about his sister's activities.
"So I went to Enin's house to pick up some souvenirs. Kak Panji was ngabarin on the road to nganterin afternoon. But I pity it must be a cape drive. I first came to Enin's house before Kak Panji came."
"Teh, I went there driving a car. Ngetes street. To Enin's house continues. Thank God it's good." Follow Aul cheerfully.
Fart until straightened his back to hear his enthusiasm Aul told his own driving experience. "Are you done practicing?"
"Kata Kak Angga has graduated. Just make SIM. Angga brother wants to help take care of. But I refused. Do not want to depend on others as long as it can be done alone." Sahut Aul who was in his room.
The big smiling pup. Aul like himself who applies the advice of the late father who always teaches independence.
"Hallo, Tea?"
"Yes. What's?" One moment, Puput fell asleep in nostalgia with his father.
"Tomorrow the night I want to dinner with Brother Panji. Kak Panji collect toD time debt." Aul laughed at the end of the phone.
"Eh, kirain's late." The puput did not lose a chuckle. The blazing television showing the Korean drama did not catch his attention at all.
"Yet. I was busy with campus activities. Kak Panji also just came back to Ciamis. Long time in Bandung." Obviously Aul.
"Kalo Pak Bagja how. Is there another coming?" Puput was curious about the development of Mother's relationship with Mr. Bagja.
"Today's sample hasn't come yet."
"Zaky's home?" Puput turned to ask the news of his only brother.
"Again go the same Ibu nganterin order rice box to the house of Mr. Yudi. All invited to attend the show. Thank goodness for a new car, he said."
"What?! Geez, there are still thanks people for showing off. Hadeuh...." Puput bobbing head.
Aul laughed off. "Not strange, Tea. In the village, the people are hot. The important thing is that the rice box order is the same with us."
No casual chat with the sister for up to an hour. It ended with Rama approaching.
"Who, Neng?" Rama stared at the new Puput locking the phone screen.
"Must call Aul. Just talk easy." Puput improved his sitting position because Rama laid his body and made his thighs as a pillow.
"Where do you want to spend the weekend, baby?" Rama closed his eyes enjoying a gentle massage of the Fertile hands on his head.
"Kalo Aa cape, it's okay at home. Early in the morning I want to go. Can I please not?"
"Hm, maybe too. Coming home from Turkey has not had the chance to exercise again. I'm addicted to the same night sport." Rama's hand starts outstretched unbuttoned Puput pajamas. Start having fun in the chest area.
Again, Puput had no chance to talk about Karenina. Worried that the mood of Rama who is now on fire turned bad. She was led by her husband to move into the room and lock her up.

Ciamorous
Panji prepare to the house of the Mother Sekar. Tonight this week finally had a chance to have dinner with Aul. Pamit to Mother and Enin who were sitting together in the dining room. Honestly said I'd have dinner outside with Aul. There is no ban. Which has support.
"Where do we eat, Aul?" Say Panji when you both get in the car. Sekar's mother warned her not to come home late at night.
"So much as Kak Panji." Aul shrugged his shoulders. There is absolutely no option.
"At the cafe near the city park how? Been there once. Cozy's place."
"Okay, Brother." Aul nodded in agreement.
Weekly nights not as lovers. But it's fine. Panji capitalizes on this moment of togetherness by sharing their daily stories. While waiting for the order, he showed me the photos on his phone screen.
"Who is this, brother?" Aul observes a selfie of Panji with a beautiful girl wearing a beige headscarf.
"That's my sister. Name's Padma. Duo P's. The banner and Padma." Proudly said.
"Sister?!" Aul asked in a surprised tone. Staring at Panji with eyes looking for an explanation.
"I have one sister, another mother. All this time living in Jogja together with Dad. Now they move to Bandung. Stay in a complex with me."
Aul listened while looking at Panji seriously.
"And now I'm proving myself to be a good brother. Every morning I would take Padma to school. He also slept in my house twice. It's a really exciting new experience."
"I love Padma. I'm amazed that Father can educate Padma so hafiz Qur'an. Padma has memorized juz 29 and 30." Shake up Panji with a smile.
"MasyaAllah. What grade, sister?" Aul amazement. Staring back at Padma's photo on Panji's phone.
"Fifth grade. He's 10 years old."
Aul mangosteen. "Take to Ciamis dong Kak. I want to know." he really meant it.
"Yes later. God willing next month there will be a red date. So it's a long holiday I'm taking to Ciamis. But Padma nginep in Aul's house can't she? Mother has indeed met Padma. But I'm afraid Padma can't be accepted at Mother's house."
"By, Brother. Later Padma can sleep in my room. I won't mind either." Aul said sure. "So Kak Panji said Padma lived together with Dad. If you can find out where her mother is?"
A waiter came to deliver the order. Make the conversation pause for a moment.
"There's a story of the past that caused Mother to sue Dad for divorce." Panji reconnects the conversation. No hesitation in speaking openly to Aul. Tells everything, what is part of his life that must be known by the girl who is expected to be his partner.
"Padma without Mom. I'm without Dad. We are both victims. And I hope that the story of the past is closed. Change new sheets. Fathers and Mothers are united again." Panji ended his story.
"Hopefully, Brother. I support Panji's good intentions. If you need my help, say yes!" Aul stared softly.
Panji nodded and smiled. It was great to have the support of Aul.

The day keeps rolling. A week has passed. Activities continue to run according to each other's routines.
Aul had just left campus with four friends with their motorcycles. The goal is a cafe recommended by Farah. Motorcycle entering the cafe parking area.
"What agent are we?" Selvy first sees the menu list book stored on the table.
"The price that corresponds to the wallet of the boarding boy is. Stewed noodles with telor?" Reno without burden. Sontak gets a toyoran Hamish sitting next to him.
"Bikin is ashamed. It's a cool cafe gini called warteg." Hamish. Makes a trio of girls laugh at their behavior.
"Today's my special treat. Eat immediately but a maximum of 70 thousand per person yes. Don't forget our main purpose of discussing the project." Aul mediates Reno and Hamish's quarrel which is still teasing each other and teasing each other.
"Bestie's best." Compact Reno and Hamish while giving two thumbs up.
"Aseeks. Beda nih abis can order 500 boxes of rice boxes from kapolsek. We're splashing the windfall." Farah was no less happy.
"Hehe. Alhamdulillahot. But this is a fortune from others. Yesterday I gave you the same pocket money Enin." Aul blushed in shame. He stayed overnight yesterday afternoon. Accompanying Enin because Bunda Ratih left for Jakarta for work. You could say every Mother Ratih out of town. Then he will accompany his grandmother Panji.
"Which one is it? You don't have a mother's grandmother." Reno stared curiously.
"Enin met this big mah. That's Rama's grandmother, right?" Selvy knows best because he was once invited by Aul to stop by Enin's house. Aul answered with a nod.
"Already, simple hapenya. We start handing out the task of making it at the culinary festival." Aul took everything seriously. The five of them agreed to participate in the culinary festival in a collaborative brand. Carrying the theme of angkringan hawker.
Aul headed for the cashier after an hour and a half of discussion while enjoying a meal.
"Number 25. How much is it, Tea?" Aul took out his wallet from inside his bag.
"On behalf of Aulia?" Ask the cashier to make sure.
Aul nodded. "Yes." Yeah."
"Free, Tea. No need to pay." The cashier smiled.
"Lohs. Why free? Cafe's birthday again?" Aul turned around to look around. But he found absolutely no birthday theme attribute.
"No, Tea. It's free from boss." Obviously the cashier smiled amiably.
Aul frowned. He was the first to visit the cafe in the Lake region. I also don't know who the owner is. "Whose boss's name is Teh?"
"That's.. at the table by the fountain."
Aul followed the direction of the cashier's pointed gaze with his chin.

There are some comments. RamPut story is now crisp, can not feel it, so like soap opera, increasingly nervous, more interesting the story of the picture.
I just answered now and deliberately here for everyone to read. This KCM is already the second season, hopefully the reader does not forget. RamPut roller coaster is over. Now is the sweet time of the beginning of marriage. And it's time for the story of all the pigments to appear and be resolved. And all of these clues I have already announced in the previous chapters.
I remain responsible for completing the KCM story. Despite feeling disturbed concentration with the presence of such comments. Please be patient if updates slow down as inspiration towards the end of the story gets harder.
Last but not least, thank you to all readers who are still loyal to accompany KCM with all forms of support.
Big hug and love 🤗 & __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
