Dharl: After 800 Year's
Chapter 22: Familiarity.

Aldi just put a smiley face towards the girl. He was amazed by what he saw, it turned out that the girl in the notebook was true, she was very beautiful, innocent, and also soft like snow.

"Whose uncle?" Ask the girl in a soft voice.

Aldi bowed to the girl. "I'm an acquaintance of your father's.well, I think so." replied Aldi.

"Uncle of my father's friend?"

"Yes." Yeah." Aldi nodded.

After hearing that, the girl opened the door wide, and let Aldi in. "Please Uncle."

"Yes. Assalamualaikum." Aldi stepped in.

Wherever into the house, a guest room measuring about 4×3 breadth. When he entered the living room, on the table there were books scattered.

After she entered, the girl closed the door and after that, she went back, shortly returning with a kettle, a glass and a packet of coffee. After putting it on the table, he lowered the scattered book, he went back and brought back the flask.

The girl then brewed coffee for Aldi, and after she had done so, she went to another corner with a book. There Aldi just saw the girl go to another corner.

It's been a few minutes from Aldi's arrival to Mr. Supri's house. The atmosphere was still quiet, they were still quiet and focused on each other. Rikka focused on her studies while Aldi was on looking for a topic of conversation.

" Your name is Rikka! " In an awkward voice.

" Yes." That's just Rikka's answer.

" My name is Aldi."

" Oh. Hello to Uncle Aldi." Say him flat.

The atmosphere was quiet again, they were silent again. Aldi re-thought the topic.

He kept thinking while looking around, there was nothing unique, there were only a few framed photos displayed on the wall near the door to another room.

" Good weather, yeah."

" But, what I hear now will be rain. "sangkal Rikka.

" Ekhh, is that so? " Aldi is getting confused.

He also got up from his seat. He stood up and stepped onto Rikka.

" It's very tough" said Aldi by approaching Rikka and sitting next to him. As he saw what Rikka was learning.

" Wait, here's a lesson for sixth grade Elementary. "aldi's confusion." Have you studied it? "

"Yes that's how."

" Do you understand?"

" I can't be arrogant. "in a tone like bragging.

"But you look bragging" Aldi said with a smile.

Suddenly there was a strange smell, like something was burning.

" Wait I forgot, turn off the stove. " Rikka immediately went running to the back, followed by Aldi.

When Aldi got there, in the kitchen he saw a pot that was filled with smoke.

" Uhuk.... " Aldi coughed with smoke rising, that was also the case with Rikka.

As Rikka was about to lower the pot, it turned out that the bottom of the pot was dripping water from inside and it hit Rikka's feet straight away.

Due to reflexes, Rikka immediately let go of the pot, and it caused the pot to instantly come off and fall down. The water from the pot also spilled and hit Rikka's feet.

" Akhkhhh... I'm really careless." Rikka seemed to whimper in pain and tried to endure it.

" Are you okay ? " Aldi went straight into the bathroom and came back with a bucket of water. " It's." Rikka's leg was directly put into the bucket.

Rikka who was soaking her legs while Aldi then cleaned the pot that had fallen.

" I'm sorry, so inconvenient uncle." said Rikka.

" It's okay this is not a problem. "reply Aldi with a smile.

[ Crews.... ] Accidentally Rikka's stomach rang.

" You hungry ? "

" No."

" Have been honest."

" I–iya I was heating water to cook rice but instead became a charred." said Rikka with a lowered head.

" well, what do you want to eat, before we have a P3K box? " Tanya Aldi's.

Rikka just shook her head at the sign of not having the box.

" We all went to the pharmacy to buy medicine, and we went to eat outside. "

" What can that be? " ask Rikka shyly.

" Of course, so what do you want to eat today ? "

" Uncle sure? "

" Hmmm" Aldi nodded his head.

" Padang Rice "mumbles Rikka less audible than Aldi.

" Hmm, what ? "

" I've never eaten Padang rice, so I want to eat it ? " Say Rikka.

" Yes of course." replied Aldi.

" But. I don't know the price, what if it's too expensive."

" Look easy I know the price. "

" really. Thanks uncle. " Rikka sounded enthusiastic.

" You better not call me uncle, it feels like I'm much older than you" Aldi said.

" yes. It is, but it feels strange to me" Aldi said with a scratch on his head.

" What do I call you then ? "

" Yes. Maybe brother or Aa, because we are in Sunda" Aldi said.

"All right, Aa?" Rikka who sounded embarrassed said that. It also made Rika's face become cute.

Aldi just smiled at him, he got a once in his life chance to see the angel smile.

After a while later, they arrived at the Padang restaurant. There Aldi and Rikka immediately sat at the table.

"What do you want to messen?"ask Aldi.

"Whatever.." replied Rikka. He said it was because he didn't know the menu was there.

"Excuse me!"Aldi raised his hand. "All of them have one portion!" Said him after being responded by the waiter of the restaurant.

Rikka was shocked by what Aldi said. "Why?" Ask him confused.

"And he said it was up to him, so I bought all the menus" Aldi replied. "And you also have never eaten the rice paddocks and side dishes."

"Yes." Rikka nods her head.

Not long after, the ordered menu arrived. There are all Padang rice side dishes in one serving.

"Well, let's eat." After Aldi washes his hands he'll eat it right away. But when he saw Rikka holding hands together to pray, he fell silent.

"Ehemm, Bismillah..." Aldi cleared his throat and prayed.

After that they immediately began to devour his food, Aldi only ate a few side dishes so that Rikka could eat and feel all the dishes, and also actually Aldi did not really like rice field.

After a few minutes, they finally finished eating. Burps came out of the mouths of the two of them, making the two of them laugh together.

"Thank you, A Aldi." thanks from Rikka.

"Yes, equally." replied Aldi.

Because they no longer have a conversation they are silent again, Aldi seems to be thinking about making a conversation.

As Aldi was thinking that, Rikka suddenly said something.

"Is my brother really my father's friend?" Ask Rikka.

"Yes, that's how it is..." Reply to Aldi who sounded hazy.

"What do you do when you're together? since when did you know my father? How's my father's nature?" Tanya from Rikka to Aldi.

"Yes..." Aldi thought for a moment, he tried to answer it with what he saw from Mr. Supri so as not to be suspected.

"I used to talk to your father about his life, to ask him for advice" Aldi answered from the first question.

"I've known him not too long, yeah... I see, not too long ago." answer the second question. Then he will answer the last question, for a moment he took a breath first and not some time in getting it back out.

"About how it is... Hmm, I don't know that much either. But I think he's a man who loves his son very much. Yep. I'm sure so." replied Aldi while remembering everything written in the notebook.

"Umm so." Rikka then lowered her head. He looked sad, for some reason.

"What's Rikka?" Ask Aldi.

"Nothing" she shakes her head. He still looks sad.

"Tell me if there's something, yeah!" Aldi said he got out of his chair.

"Actually, a few days ago Dad was acting strangely." Rikka suddenly made a sound. Aldi looked back at Rikka.

"Have you forgotten me?" rikka's mumbling looked sad. "Dad was always not there for me" she added.

"If you love me, why doesn't he exist."

Aldi then walked up to him, and immediately squatted under Rikka.

"That's not true, maybe there's something he can't tell you" Aldi said.

"So if you feel lonely, take it easy I will be there to accompany you." added Aldi by giving an identity card.

"Umm" Rikka nodded her head.

Aldi then went to pay, followed by Rikka who got out of the chair, he followed Aldi from behind.

After paying them and then out of the Padang restaurant. When going on the bike, Aldi turned his head back and said.

"I'll go to your house every day so you don't get lonely" Aldi said. "Then, Ayok." added him after Rikka sat behind him. They then drove back to Rikka's house.
