7. Dinner

There was something different in the atmosphere of the Abimana family dinner today. The presence of the youngest daughter of Mr. Harimurti Abimana who has long migrated to the country of people to get an education certainly replenishes the joy that has long been lost. For everyone in the family, Acha has always been an irreplaceable darling.

"Slow down the deck" the mother warned. Acha has not tasted the cuisine of her hometown for a long time. Many years of longing he finally responded today.

"E-nuak ba-ngat Mam" he said was not clear with a mouth full of food.

"It's Mam. Adek exactly piggy cake" said Aldrich did not want to lose.

"Hush. Brother, cook your own adek spelled piggy. Keep Papi what? Piggy's dad?" the head of the family was greeted with the laughter of everyone at the dinner table.

"Marahin is Pi's older brother. Piggy howling piggy. Fuck up!" acha spray throws a basil ointment into Aldrich's face. But the green leaves landed right on Aldrich's plate. With a wry expression, the man who was older than Acha scooped up and chewed on it.

"Acha, don't throw food!" the mother's nagging looks at the behavior of her youngest child.

"Ups. sorry Mam" Acha's answer got a tongue sticking out of her brother.

"When is your wife coming home, brother?" Papi changed the subject.

"There's still business in Taiwan, Pi. If smoothly the day after tomorrow also has taken off" said his youngest son before returning to bite the thighs of the chicken kremes that have been dipped in the sambel terasi.

"What is the value of your shares? Still safe?" a very common language for conglomerates like them in the middle of the dinner table.

Because of the scandal of one of the artists under his label, MegaTV subsidiary must experience stock shake in the capital market. However, thanks to Aldrich's agile reaction to the problem, everything can be controlled. "Udah was given kok Pi problem. Now it's stable" he said proudly.

"good. If there is the slightest problem, the root cause of the ripening must be immediately revoked. Don't wait for more gedhe. Can game over later" advises the experienced businessman. "How adek? When do you start helping Papi in the company?"

The one asked just rolled his eyes, "Come on, Pi. Adek just came home this. Want to rest first" he said spoiled.

"Basic piggy! Malesan" ledek the brother was rewarded with a sharp shot of the sister.

"Don't be the same, brother. Adek is a girl. Kasian if you have to take care of your business Papi kayak" bela Mami.

"Thin.." Acha gave her thumbs up, "Mami emang the best deh" the boy was pampered in her Mammys arms.

"Yes already. Adek marriage if so" proposed Papi.

Acha's eyeballs are rounded, "Well, Pi?"

"Nathan, Pi" Aldrich replied.

"Yup. Nathan. Who's getting married next week, right?"

Mami chimed in, "Tuh, your ex already wants to get married. You when?"

All I asked was a pursing of lips. I really don't like the topic this time.

Aldrich who saw his little sister was silent even mocked, "Makanya move on. Failed to move on you anyway. So don't get a new one."

"Where did you go from? Boyfriend at High School? Adek hasn't moved on from him?" Mom curious.

Acha stunt, "Eh no. Who told? Acha has not moved on. No, no." The girl insisted.

"If you've moved on to marriage, dong!" aldrich's sentence was greeted with a second basil lash throw.

"Acha! Don't throw food!" mother nags. This time it's worse than before.

"Eh yes Mam. I'm sorry.." - Acha seemed to notice her sister sticking out her tongue again, teasing her.

"Have you got a girlfriend yet?" ask Papi.

Acha chokes.

"Yes not yet, Pi. Said Acha tuh failed to move on" who replied was his brother.

"No. Acha's girlfriend has a lot. Aja brother who does not know" said Acha full of confidence.

"Try here to know Brother one" challenge Aldrich.

"Tauk ah's.. Big sister's bummer" blow the girl.

"That's really cute singles" ledek the brother as hard as possible.

"Damn... Ugly brother like a monkey!"
