Ayrisa And Her Story
Ayrisa⁰⁹ - Aspen

The moon has replaced the task of the sun to occupy the throne and share its light on the earth. Stars also began to appear to fill the horizon. The diurnal animals have returned to the nest, changing their turn with nocturnal animals who began to actively seek food.

The time before dinner at the home of the Pradiepta family is always a little crowded. It is because of Sagita. The mother of two sons had to shout the names of her two children to get out of their room. Not finished there only after the two children came out, Sagita will continue to give a short lecture—which is actually very long—so they are not too confined in the room with the books. Sagita daily must stroke the chest because the two children are very inherited the nature of their father who loves books.

They reached the dining room along with Jeremian, the head of the family, who had just returned from the office. The man went straight to the dining room knowing for sure his wife and children were there now.

As soon as he arrived, Jeremian briefly dipped his wife's cheek before sitting down. It makes Sagita surprised, while the two children roll their eyes lazily because of the behavior of the father who does not remember the age.

Does love not know age?

Dinner has begun. They were eating in silence, only the sound of a clash between the tableware filling the atmosphere there.

Once finished eating, Jeremian returned to the room first to immediately clean his tired body. Then followed by Aspen who had also finished his dinner. He was about to return to his room when Gala's words, the elder brother, made his steps stop.

"Ma, Aspen again likes girls."

Aspen hurriedly changed course, walking back to the dining table before her brother revealed more. However, it seemed like it was in vain as Gala quickly continued.

"Aspen likes his sister Nefra."

Eliminating your own brother is not a sin, right? inner Aspen with growling.

Sagita turned to his youngest son. "Mama thinks you need to be fooled as well as like Gala," he said with a meaningful smile.

"Whose name? I never knew, yes, that Nefra had a sister. Just met her twin twice." Sagita continued. It seems like Nefra hid Ayrisa's whereabouts well from the people around her.

"His name is Ayrisa, Ma" Gala replied.

"Other times bring it here, yes, As."

Being very upset, Aspen decided to move on from there quickly. She could still hear her brother blasting while laughing. Aspen snorted, it seemed like he needed to devise a plan of retaliation, he thought.

Arriving in the room, Aspen sat himself in the front seat of the study table with a rough. An irritated feeling still lingered because of her big-mouthed brother. Ah, yes, do not forget Viran who is very Aspen believed to be the mastermind who told Gala about Ayrisa.

Aspen smiled obliquely. It would be nice to respond to the behavior of those two people.

Alright, now it was better for her to continue her delayed learning activities. Hum, it's time to change subjects. Thinking for a moment, finally Aspen's choice fell on biology lessons.

Geck! Geck!

Aspen turned her eyes away from the book, looking at the clock stuck to the wall of her room. It turned out to be half nine o'clock in the evening, three minutes.

"Aspen? Mama can come in?" Sagita's voice came from behind the door.

"By, Ma." Aspen.

After that there was a scream of open door hinges, followed by the emergence of a woman who still looks beautiful at her age can no longer be said to be young.

"What's up, Ma?"

Sagita who just sat on the edge of his youngest son's bed smiled. In his heart grimaced because his son this one is very to the point. "Mama just wants to ask about Ayrisa" she replied with a meaningful smile.

Aspen breathed slowly. He should have known this from the beginning. After knowing that he likes someone, surely his mother will not just stay silent. Her mother will definitely turn into a journalist with a collection of questions ready to be thrown.

"Ma," Aspen began to open his voice, "i'm new to Ayrisa and I'm not close. So, mantingan Mama asked the same Bang Nefra who was clearly her biological brother," he said at length.

This time it was Sagita's turn to take a slow breath. "Okay, Mama won't make you. But remember, Mama will always be ready to help you bring your future daughter-in-law here." After saying that Sagita went from the bed of Aspen to the door of the room. Before going out he reminded his son not to sleep too late.

Silence shrouded Aspen's room after her mother left. All that was heard in that silence was the sound of the second needle constantly moving around.

Until his net was glued to the exam preparation book he bought some time ago. Suddenly Aspen remembered the bookstore. The place where he first met Ayrisa.

Ayrisa's expression back then was very cute in Aspen's eyes, making her unable to forget that.

Destiny can be so beautiful. He was reunited with Ayrisa after for a few days after from the bookstore, his face continued to loom in Aspen's mind.

...··...

Ayrisa came home early today because it was Friday. During his stay at the Carsion family home, Shera was always enthusiastic when Ayrisa's time home arrived. Every day he would come to pick up Ayrisa. Either with her husband, Elio, or alone in her car.

Because Ayrisa came home early, Shera took the girl to her cafe, which the oma had given her. Now is the monthly schedule of checks. That's why Shera invited Ayrisa there rather than later the girl was just alone and bored at home.

When entering Shera was immediately welcomed by the manager who had helped take care of his business when he was not in place. Annelis. A different woman three years younger than Shera. Working to make ends meet with the eight-year-old princess. Yes, she is a single parent.

They headed straight for Shera's room on the inside.

Ayrisa followed her mother in silence. The net is busy exploring all corners of the cafe. Eventually they entered Shera's room.

"Well, you want lava cake or chocolate cake?" Shera asked.

"Umm, chocolate cake, ma'am."

After Annelis handed over the book which was a physical duplicate of the file containing all the affairs of the cafe, Shera asked the woman to bring him chocolate cake for Ayrisa.

While waiting for Shera, Ayrisa plays her phone. Yesterday he downloaded a game on his phone. It was a game recommended by Mia. He said so they can play the same game and compete with each other whose scores are the highest.

It was a simple game where he had to collect as many zombies as possible. There is also a mission he must complete to fill the cup with a liquid named a little nyeleneh. After the cup is full, he will get a reward, whether it is additional coins or the opening of a locked bonus.

Ayrisa admitted that she enjoyed playing the game enough. The most fun is when he gets the 'tsunami' bonus that allows him to collect more zombies. However, Ayrisa will be a little upset when she gets the bonus 'U.F.O' which makes her lose a lot of zombies because she cannot jump high while passing through the ravine between the roads. It ended up making his zombie horde dwindle.

Annelis finally returns with chocolate cake for Ayrisa.

Ayrisa accepted it with a smile that was sprawled on her lips. He did not forget to thank the woman.

"Mom, I'm going to pick up Audrey at school first." Annelis asked for permission afterwards.

"Yes, you can go."

"Thank you, Mom." Then Annelis came out of the room.

After that it was Ayrisa's turn to go to the toilet to wash her hands. It had become his habit to wash his hands before eating, although later he ate using a spoon.

When going back to Shera's room, Ayrisa accidentally met a woman who he estimated to be the same age as the mother or the mother. Because it was already done, Ayrisa gave a warm smile as a form of politeness. After that, he continued his steps back to Shera's room.

As soon as she sat back on the sofa, Ayrisa started eating her chocolate cake. He also continued to play the previously paused game.

Finished eating his chocolate cake, suddenly there was a call coming in from Nefra. Ayrisa grumbled in annoyance. Because of the incoming call from his brother, he lost and all his zombies went into the abyss. He just started again after losing.

With an annoyed gesture, Ayrisa rubbed the green icon on the phone screen. Then bring the rectangular object to the ear.

"Why, Brother?" ask her with a annoyed tone.

"When you go home? Tomorrow I come, deh, make it pick up if you haven't come home."

"Currently, what! Brother Nef was very happy," said Ayrisa. "Sir Nef, tuh, nyebelinya plus-plus really, yes. The more males I go home, mending stay with Mama aja. There's Brother El with Papa too."

"I'll pick it up tomorrow afternoon! If you refuse, I'm ready to drag you home."

"No! Brother Nef is so evil, where do I want to go home. I've only been home for a week now when Mom was told to go home."

It seems Ayrisa had enough fun to provoke her brother's anger on that one. Not knowing just over there, Nefra who was at the Army headquarters to hang out with his juniors was emitting an aura of anger that made the junior members of the Soldiers shudder and move away.

"Oh, okay if you want to. I'm picking you up now. If I need to drag it home." After that, their phone call was terminated.

Now Ayrisa felt her body shudder after hearing Nefra's flat tone.

"Ma, it'll be a bit maleman, yeah. The streets used to be that," said Ayrisa.

Shera raised her gaze, looking straight at Ayrisa. "Would you like to take a walk?"

Ayrisa nodded quickly. "Yes, Ma."

"Okay, if Mama's work is done we can go straight for a walk."

Is Ayrisa now able to breathe freely?

Yes, he should now be able to breathe with relief without thinking about Nefra. Besides, her brother doesn't know about Shera's cafe. So, it was impossible for Nefra to come to him while still in the Shera cafe.
