MYS 7
...
So actually I am a victim of Ana's interests.
Feeling like a victim or not, that's a problem later, the important thing is that I can take a hot shower in Ana's bathroom shower. All my bad thoughts today fell with the sweat that was washed by warm water. What other favors do you deny?
"Call me Ana please," asked Ana's mother from the kitchen.
"Yes ma'am," I replied still with a towel wrapped around my hair.
An hour ago Ana said goodbye to swimming in the swimming pool behind Jono's house, so that's my goal now.
There is a side door that connects Ana's yard with Jono's house and is not far from the side terrace.
For the first time, I set foot in the house. With a fairly large backyard, many palm trees are growing around the two-story Moroccan-style house which is painted all white. In the corner of the yard, there is a well-maintained yellow bamboo tree and a wooden bench where a smaller house stands where large transparent windows show the contents of the room which turns out to be a kitchen.
The swimming pool is between the kitchen and the house which is connected by a corridor like in a hospital.
"A called mother," I called out to Ana who was still busy swimming in the ten the five-meter pool.
While waiting for Ana who said she was going to rinse and then go into the back of the kitchen, I sat by the pool. Put my feet in the water. Fresh and cold.
"Hi..." said a voice from the direction of the house. When I turned my head it was Jono.
"Hey, where are Edi and Ebi?" I said casually.
"I'm editing the video above. Want to see it?" but the person who said sat next to me.
"Anytime, just wait for Ana, after all, it's time to break the fast." I feel awkward, it's just the two of us with the host. Why does Ana take so long to take a bath?
Usually, I talk a lot but this time I'm at a loss for words. First because of fasting, secondly because I'm too tired and thirdly I'm not used to seeing Jono other than in school uniforms or sports t-shirts. At home, in casual clothes, Jono looks like a real Caucasian.
"I'll go home in Jono's car, okay?" said Ana as we entered the house.
"Eh? You don't dare to take me to ask him for help?"
"Yes, no. I asked Jono to accompany him to Jadi Baru, there is a need and need to bring a lot of things."
Whatever Ana's interests are, I don't care. But going home, besides Ana, plus it was Jono, who had left me speechless, was a disaster in itself.
Today I have used a lot of patience stock, and now I have to use it again, what is left is crumbs?
...
What sin have you committed today?
One of the Kibul trio personnel named Edward van Joseph alias Edi is currently being avid Dolalak. Almost every day, after school, he and Ebi would have fled to hunt for a Dolalak show around Prembun which was on the rise.
Dolalak itself is a traditional dance from Purworejo. It is said that at first the dance performed by the men was staged to welcome guests only, but over time and the development of the era and the reasons for preserving regional arts, Dolalak transformed into a more modern and contemporary one.
Now, Dolalak can also be performed by female dancers and is usually performed at celebration events. So, now it is widely known to the outside of Purworejo district. From Kebumen to Banjarnegara area.
However, I regret when Dolalak is performed by female dancers. In addition to the dancer's make-up, the pants they wear are very mini. As if deliberately showing off the dancer's smooth white thighs.
Like now, somehow Ana and I were dragged along by Edi watching Dolalak from Tamtam school. As a girl, I certainly feel uncomfortable when the female dancers are waddling around in their mini pants. Moreover, the dancers are still in school. My woman's heart screamed disapproval.
"An, let's go home. It's hot." I whined to Ana, who even joined the dance.
"Hm, what?" Ana shouted back. The music in the salon was so loud that my words didn't reach his brain.
"Okay, okay. I'll go home first." I'm going to run away right away. My eyes almost cried watching the mini pants on the stage swaying.
Let me go home today by sacrificing my pocket money savings to take a bus.
While waiting for a bus to pass. I leaned against one of the trees in front of the Tamtam school. With the unfriendly hot weather plus a rumbling stomach, I tried to be patient waiting for the bus that was either still passing or not.
I regret a thousand percent for the seduction of Ebi and Edi, who will treat you to nasi Padang after watching the show that indulges in the aura. If I knew this would happen, it would be better if I went home to do my homework so that my father would praise my son for being diligent.
"Why did you run away?"
I knew the voice very well without having to look where the voice came from. Jono. Standing not far from me with a red face.
"You know ah. It's hot, I'm hungry and even looking at those mini pants. Better go home."
"So because you're hungry?"
I'm silent. It is also not mandatory to have to answer questions that already have answers.
"Then don't go home yet. Come with me," said Jono again and without permission took my hand away from the school.
"Where to?"
"Eat. He said he was hungry."
Not long after, we stopped in front of a Padang restaurant. Jono led me in and chose a seat near the sink.
"It's Edi who wants to treat you. You don't have to bother, Jon." I interrupted after ordering rice with side dishes of cakes and omelet, while Jono had rendang rice.
"It's the same Ngi, in the end, I also pay," said Jono as he stood towards the sink.
I can only be stunned. Remembering Ana's story that in the Kibul trio, Jono was the biggest funder. Jono's two cousins have a fixed monthly allowance but not enough to spend a lot of time. Meanwhile, Jono is like having a debit card with no withdrawal limits.
And what's interesting is the fact that it doesn't make Jono arrogant, let alone play stupid. She is more down-to-earth and looks naturally simple. Maybe this is what is called a character. Born by itself without the need to be forced, let alone made up.
"Why haven't you ordered a drink yet?" asked Jono making me, who was looking at the street shocked.
"Ice orange if you insist." even though I've already taken water.
Still, said you haven't ordered a drink yet?
This one child is indeed outrageous.
