Salma suddenly becomes nervous as she walks to deliver Arvin's order. He remembered the behavior of Dina and Yahya who thought it was strange earlier.
'What's with them? Why do they feel ticklish? Nothing is funny. Are they tickled? But who is the same?' inner Salma.
The plain and geeky girl walked slowly towards the table that Arvin was wearing. Until finally he arrived and raised the glass that was on top of his tray.
"That's the tea, sir," said Salma.
"Oh, yes. Thank you," said Arvin without turning his head and continued to look ahead. It certainly makes Salma curious about the face of Arvin.
The girl then tilted her head to be able to see Arvin's face. Arvin who felt strange because he still felt the presence of Salma turned to the left and was surprised to see Salma tilting her head.
But his surprise meant something else, Arvin was fascinated with Salma, and vice versa. The two of them stared at each other for a long time.
"See that!" yahya whispered to Dina.
After a long time looking at Arvin, Salma felt sore because of the tilted position of his head. He immediately normalized the position of his head and it awakened Arvin from his daydream.
"Is there anything you want to order again, sir?" asked Salma who looked nervous.
"There," answered Arvin, causing Salma to become nervous, as Arvin continued to stare at Salma.
"W-what?" ask Salma.
"You," said Arvin.
"Eh?! What?!"
"Ah?! What's?! What did I say?!" asked Arvin who ended up being 'normal' again.
"Me" answered Salma.
"What did you say? Why are you so weird? I said I wanted a meat message."
"Meats? Beef?"
"Yes, of course beef."
"Wear rice?"
"Not to."
"h-huh. Your order will be here soon, sir." Salma then turned her body away and when she was about to walk, Arvin suddenly stood up and held her right hand. Salma's body turned to face Arvin and created a state where Arvin and Salma's faces were less than 20 cm.
"Don't call me 'Master', I'm not your Master, and my name is Arvin, not Mister" Arvin said.
"Well, sir, I mean, Arvin. But you're too close" said Salma whose face looked very red.
Arvin then gets closer to Salma. "Don't use formal language with me."
"Ok, if it's your will, I mean, your will, then it doesn't matter."
"But let me go, we're too close anyway" Salma said.
"Enjoy it" said Arvin.
"Nik-enjoy? You meanwhat?"
Arvin then realized by what he did, that he was too close to Salma, at once the 26-year-old man released his grip on Salma.
"I'm sorry. Just continue with your work" said Arvin who immediately returned to his seat.
After Arvin let go, Salma immediately turned her face away from Arvin and ran into the kitchen with a face that was redder than the crab that had just matured.
"Kilihih." Yahya and Dina just laughed amusedly at the incident.
After picking up Arka and Fina, Isa is taking his car to Shirina's PAUD school. In the middle of the bench, Arka and Fina seemed to be busy talking and laughing about things that Isa did not understand.
'Children's wobble, yes only children understand, ' Isa's mind.
The three of them finally arrived at PAUD Shirina. At the gate of her PAUD, the only princess of Kevlar puppet and the Flower seemed to be smiling cheerfully waiting for her invitation. He opened a window at the driver's door.
"Come, go up," tell Isa to Shirina with a smile.
"Why didn't dad pick me up?" ask Shirina.
"Your father said he was having a sudden business, so uncle picked you up" answered Isa.
"That's it." Shirina then opened the door of Isa's car in the middle.
The little girl did not go up after seeing Fina also in the car.
"Uncle why is this poor boy here too?!" asked Shirina who was still not up.
"It's okay, right?" says Isa.
"Of course nothing! The poor man carries the poverty virus! If uncle doesn't want us to be poor, then don't go with him! Don't even go near her!"
"You know where it's coming from?"
"Mom said so."
"Shirina, you know? Most of the rich people in her childhood were difficult people, so Fina did not carry the virus of poverty, because one day she could be richer than us, never underestimate or demean others" said Isa.
"I don't care! I'm not going up and I'm just gonna wait for Dad's invitation!"
"Well, if you don't want to. Uncle tell me, yes, your father won't be here for a day, so if you don't receive uncle's invitation, then you'll sleep here tonight" Isa warned, Shirina seemed to be thinking about Isa's threat just now.
"Lied!" Shirina.
"Can't believe? Yasudah, close the door and stay here until tomorrow. There will be no toys, good food, soft beds, cool air conditioners and sweet ice cream until tomorrow for you."
Shirina simply fell silent and stared intently at Fina and Isa in turn, Isa returned her gaze with a ignorant look.
"Loof!" shirina's grumbling looked very upset. He was forced to get into Isa's car and sit next to Fina.
Isa then chuckled triumphantly, he immediately drove forward his car after Shirina closed the car door.
"Don't come close to me!" sewot Shirina on Fina.
"I didn't come near you, you came last, so you were the one who approached me" Fina said.
"Shut up!" grunting Shirina while draping her hands together and turning her face away from Fina
"But our sitting position is close."
"Then I move backwards! Move you!" said Shirina while standing up and trying to move from the middle bench, to the back bench through the top of the car bench.
Shirina had trouble getting down because she was still in a bag. Fina, who understands Shirina's predicament, tries to help her cousin, holding Shirina's leg in order to encourage Shirina, but she rebels.
"Don't touch me!" shirina exclaimed as she moved her legs so that Fina would release her hand from Shirina's tiny legs. Fina then released him.
Suddenly a stray cat passed in front of the car, and it suddenly made Isa do the brakes suddenly. As a result, Shirina was pushed into the back bench and her head was crushed.
"Oh" complained Fina who was in pain.
"Slow down, uncle!" continued.
"What's wrong?" ask Isa.
"Aragh!" grumbled Shirina.
After continuing to walk since morning, Jhana finally decided to stop at a Burger outlet that uses a good cart to sell. Jhana took a chair and sat down. Not long after, the seller was none other than the young man who yesterday got a 2 million tip from his boss.
"Excuse me, Madam, what do you want to order? This is the menu" said the young man, handing Jhana a menu paper.
"This burger I ordered three, yes. Two are wrapped, one is eaten here" Jhana said.
"All right."
Jhana accidentally saw the nametag on the young man's right chest.
"Does this Burger outlet have branches?" ask Jhana.
"Yes, Madam, there are eleven," the young man replied.
"Yes, Madam."
"Your name is Joshua, right? I don't know many people whose names start with the letter J other than myself."
"The Madam's name starts with the letter J, too?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"It's different with me. I know a lot of people whose names start with the letter J."
"Oh yeah?"
"Yes. I have five half-brothers, their names all start with the letter J."
"So your family's name starts with the average letter J?"
"More or less like that, only my aunt doesn't."
"Mrs isn't a resident of this area, is she?" ask Joshua.
"No, I live near zero" Jhana replied.
"Madly a real Jogja?"
"I'm a Jakartan, moved to Jogja five years ago."
"Ooooh."
"You're a real Jogja?"
"No, I'm a Bandunger, but since I was a child I lived in Jogja."
Jhana.
"You're in college?" ask Jhana.
"No, ma'am, I work only to support myself and my aunt" Joshua replied.
"Then what about your stepbrothers?"
"They have their own lives. If they are happy, they will be happy themselves, and if they are sad, they will be sad themselves. Yeah .. That's it, maybe because I'm their half-brother, so I'm not really considered."
"Does Madam also have a half-brother?" ask Joshua.
"I don't even know where my family is" Jhana replied.
"Well?"
"Since the baby, I was raised by a family. They treated me well without any difference to my foster brothers. My foster brothers also love me very much."
"And that is of course inversely proportional to my five half-brothers."
"This, Madam," Joshua said, giving a Burger to Jhana.
"Thank you" said Jhana.
Jhana immediately ate the burger and really enjoyed it. Not long after, a sedan without a roof stopped in front of the Burger outlet. The driver's window then opened slowly, and Juliet's figure was unknown to Jhana.
Juliet, wearing sunglasses, immediately took off her glasses and threw a piece of banknote Rp. 100,000 out of his car window.
"Today it's my turn to withdraw the arisan money, I give you a little money, no need to thank you, because I was a philanthropist. I just want to share the sustenance" Juliet said arrogantly to Joshua, but Joshua just looked at him, while Jhana looked astonished.
"Oh yeah, I can't linger in a poor place like this" continued Juliet who then went somewhere with her car.
"That's who?" ask Joshua.
"Hahaha, that's one of my half-sisters. Do them all like that" Joshua replied.
"Did he give you the money?"
"Yes, he always gives me money that way."
Hearing that, Jhana then took the money that was thrown by Juliet and put it in the pocket of Joshua's pants.
"Not to be taken, madam. I just never took it even though he kept giving me money that way" Joshua said.
"The name of the sustenance should not be denied, no matter how someone gives money to us, the most important thing is that he is sincere" said Jhana.
"But they're too evil."
"Evil?"
"Yes, even more so for me and my aunt."
"Maybe you've hurt them without you knowing. That's why they're like this now."
"My aunt told me, from birth, I was never treated well by my five half-brothers."
"Why could that be?"
"Of course, my aunt always didn't want to talk about them, so I never asked her about anything like that."
Jhana was silent for a moment.
"Oh yeah, how much is it? The burger is good" said Jhana.
"Thank you, Madam. Everything becomes forty-five thousand," said Joshua.
Jhana then gave the young man the right money, while Joshua gave him 2 wrapped burgers.
"Come another time" said Joshua.
"If the Burger is as good as this, yes, of course I will come again" said Jhana, smiling. He then returned to the mosque.
While walking, Jhana keeps thinking about the social status gap of Joshua and one of his half-sisters, Juliet.
'The one full of diamond jewelry and fancy cars, is the one living hard with his aunt?' inner Jhana.
"Geez, why would I think about other people's problems if my problems are endless" Jhana murmured.
Yahya delivers the beef that Arvin wants, because Salma looks unable to be near Arvin. Salma's heart continued to beat fast and his breathing was irregular.
"Quiet, sister, calm down" Dina told Salma as she fanned.
"His face is very clear and close, I don't know what this feeling is" Salma said.
"Have you never been that close to a man?"
"No, in my village all men stink of cows. But nearby, I feel very comfortable because she's very fragrant."
"So, how do you feel?"
"I don't understand. I've never been like this before, I don't understand what this feeling is, but, somehow I want to continue being around him, but, I don't dare."
"Did you like it?"
"How does it feel like to feel like that?"
"God, did you never like anything?"
"I know liking someone and liking something is different."
"Eh? Right too."
"But, do you admire him?" ask Dina.
"Is he a good man?"
"Hmm, I can't say that he's a nice guy."
"The thing is, I will no longer serve him, let it be that Yahya serve him."
"Hihihi," Dina laughed.
