Contrary to what they expected after lunchtime, Alpino and Lisa now end up in the back garden with gloves and a hat attached to their respective bodies. They are currently cleaning the backyard that is like a bush. Lisa, who insisted that they clean quickly so she could care for the koi fish, was named after a cute stranger who suddenly spoke from the lips of the woman.
Bubbles.
From now on, Lisa calls the fish Bubble. Alpino asked strangely why Lisa suddenly called her that, but the reason the woman was only simple, was because the fish caused bubbles when she opened and closed her mouth on the surface of the water. Although not so often, but when the Bubble moves, there are some splashes of water around that form bubbles. Whether it was just due to the effects caused by the thick moss or what, but Alpino also could not comment on the sudden naming of the fish.
They have indeed met and become acquainted with Mr *****. In fact, the equipment and items attached to their own bodies are a gift from Mr.**** which is with great pleasure. Likewise, one small labi and one three-colored koi fish that Lisa has placed in an untouched corner so that after the yard and pond are cleaned, the garden and pond are cleaned, he could put them comfortably in new, cleaner places and environments. As a friend to Bubble said.
It was about four o'clock in the afternoon, not so hot. Such clouds help their activities so as not to get sunburned and provide coolness. Lisa was so excited. He had even changed into a t-shirt and training pants that Alpino kept in his car. In fact, he had forgotten how long the shirt had been there because he did not use his car too often and only his friend who was guarding the car.
But this time it seems useful. So, no problem. As long as it can be used and Lisa can wear it comfortably, everything feels fine.
Alpino sat on the terrace, next to a cold drink he prepared to quench their thirst. He still noticed how it was Lisa who almost completed 70% of the page cleaning work. The woman did not even realize that she managed to clean the weeds from one corner to another. Just the murmur and the gibberish that the woman was fond of, she disappeared in her own world.
“Lisa, please first. Drink first, here!” No heart, Alpino called.
“This is done. Stay here alone, Al. can continue to clean the pool deh. But then you clean the moss, huh? I want to play with Bubble with others, hehe”
Maybe successive happiness makes the woman an excess of energy. Alpino recalled how the previous Lisa did not even want to get out of bed and had to cause drama in the morning. Maybe if Lisa had met Lisa this morning in the afternoon, Lisa wouldn't have believed that she could make it that way.
“Judah if so, this is me who rested daft, yes. Lo don't be imposed. If tired, here, sit with me”
“Iyaa, baffle! It's me again very excited, tau!”
“Dih, later if you complain of low back pain is the same pegel I am not responsible, yes!”
“Gue is not horrified. Anyway if I'm why-why is everything handed over to lo, Al. I'm tired, you're the incandescent I”
“Serah Queen aja, deh”
Alpino taunts when Lisa pulls the celurit from its place and makes a gesture of splitting the neck. No matter what, Alpino flirted again by shaking the icy plastic cup in his hand to tease the woman. But Lisa was not tempted at all. He just turned around and started weeding the weeds that were strewn around him.
Alpino watched for a while. There were about ten minutes when the man gave up and started moving back to help the woman. Lisa still smiles when she finds out Alpino is already nearby. He began teasing again with questions such as whether the Alpino energy had re-charged and came back mocking with weak frills and decrepit bones.
Alpino succumbs to temptation. He went back to weeding the grass next to his best friend. The weather again became cooler with a breeze that cradled stronger this time. Like meggodas in one and many other ways to just sit and talk out of nowhere rather than doing any exertion. But they were stronger and managed to clear the whole thing in a fairly faster time than expected. Now, it's only Alpino's job to clean the pool.
“Al” Lisa calls when she who should be resting instead comes back to Alpino who is struggling with koi fishing and small Guppy fish with the jarring that has been provided by Mr.**** earlier. Muttering, Alpino only glanced at the woman who was sitting wordlessly on the ground without being disturbed dirty.
“Sitting in a clean place, Lisa” said in a slightly telling tone.
“No want, want to see the pool cleaned up”
“Ngeyel really, Lisa. Later lo gatel-gatel it. Uda, there, this I clean briefly doang, kok”
“Ngak gatel's. Here I want to see. Very tight, Alpino. I am Aduin Aunt Adel ntar”
“Mama would have said the same thing as me, Lis. Sanan, dah”
“No to”
“Hadeh, ordinary”
Lose in the argument, Alpino let. However, he immediately went to pick up one of the unused sacks to collect the grass.
“Awas, Sitting up here aja”
Lisa, happily dropped herself back on the sack that Alpino had placed. Still close to the man's whereabouts and Lisa can see how Alpino's activities to clean up the slum pool. Smiling, Lisa could not help but chuckle with the sweet treatment that Alpino had always given her.
“Al, I'm so curious” suddenly he makes a sound. Alpino just muttered to listen. “Gue sure you must treat Kina kayak gini too, right? really Kina deket pantes same lo. Watch out, yes, baper son people lo responsibility, you know!”
Feelings.
Alpino was surprised by the statement. She frowned, stopped her cleaning activities and looked at Lisa with a stare that stated the word; you swear to talk this way to me? Not wrong?
But Lisa couldn't catch it properly, so she stayed on her feet to tease Alpino with one of her eyebrows raised in a strange facial look that made Alpino want to curse inwardly.
“Lo if you try in the filter first, Lis. Don't mess around like someone else is drunk. Though just drinking ice sugar cubes doang”
“Gue not drunk!” Lisa's rampage makes Alpino fall a little. She shifted as the woman pinched her waist with a few pinches. “Kan I really. Lo, anyway, realize not, if your treatment can make girls misunderstand? Pantes a lot of people who pursue you, yes, from the past. I don't wonder anymore,”
“It's like because I'm handsome doang, no, anyway?”
“Al, please, yes, this is not a confidence recognition event. No need to digituin lo face, tickled me”
Lisa laughed amusedly as Alpino showed some strange faces. Especially when the man posed with a hat that was lowered down and the lower lip that was bitten too much. The man himself understood his ludicrous pose, but he did not care much.
“Yeah, whereas I'm handsome”
“Diem, lo”
“But, Lis. I want to refute your opinion about me that has the potential to make children baper”
“Lo's words, Al. amused very” Lisa realized that she laughed a lot today, but she ignored it because she was satisfied with how comfort and happiness revolved around her.
“Serius”
Alpino smile. His feelings rumbled a bit before he refocused on what he was doing. Not wanting to take his feelings any deeper, but today, he had already determined something where he would choose for his next move.
Yes or no.
Stay ahead within a certain limit or stop and take another direction.
The choice is only one of the two. And today, was the day of execution for him.
“If for example I can make a child baper, why don't you baper me?”
One shot he took out. Lisa nodded, a little surprised.
The pause feels more dead than before. But in the few moments that Alpino tried to pay attention to his hearing, Lisa was already giggling amusedly in place. Alpino can't choose whether he's relieved or destroyed in there.
“Ya, no, lah. Lo, right, my best friend, Al. I've seen you outside in”
“Dih, very ambiguous greeting, lo”
Lisa glared in surprise. The wind around somehow felt more piercing. Bubble jumped from a small bucket that was unable to hold him for long. Alpino immediately flinched and tried to take the fish back for safekeeping. Sayup-sayup he heard again Lisa's laughter that seemed to falter.
“It seems that makes it even stranger, lo, deh, Al” Pout later.
Alpino turned the maya. Refocused on cleaning the little fish pond. At this point, he didn't really care about wet his pants or his appearance anymore. He just wanted this to be done and rest in peace.
“Yaudah, yes, I'm sorry, deh”
“Hmm.. Excuse me, huh?” Lisa tried to joke again. But this time Alpino ignored him quickly. She has to finish whatever it is so she can talk better with Lisa. But, in the course of time, things started to drive him crazy.
Lisa shakes. With great certainty. There was no hesitation in his face. He even looks very steady in his choices as he smiles and voices; yup, very loudly. It echoed in Alpino's ears like a shout that slashed through his entire organs.
“Yeah, then you're riding a diamond gold, dong, Lis. When will you meet me who, already handsome, funny, pinter, kind, and sweet, right? I've a complete package you know, why is still ignored gini, anyway?”
Be ill.
Is this what you call a form of rejection?
Alpino laughs at himself. He almost bared at his power. It felt like his legs were shaking and he couldn't do anything anymore. He almost doused himself when he opened the water tap causing the water to spray everywhere and uncontrollably. Lisa had to shout at him first in order for his movement to close the water tap faster than a turtle.
Hot eyes. But she couldn't cry.
He just, can't.
“Al, seriously” Lisa back talking when things start calmer than before. Alpino felt his body shiver. The wind stung more excitedly. He sat himself down and let the water fill the rinsed pond.
“If I can be honest, actually you dream of all the girls on this earth, anyway. the best category to be made a prospective husband and prospective daughter-in-law by mothers around” There is a small laugh issued, there is a small laugh, but this talk is more serious than anything Alpino can categorize in their talks.
“Ber says lo. I will not deny all of your words. Facts that can not be changed from lo that I should not reveal because this can make your ego break above the number one hundred” There is more laughter. And Alpino felt his legs go numb. He let his head and ears, which only worked, not allow his heart to participate.
“Lo handsome, pinter, cute, sweet, gentle, treat you tuh sweet real. I was as long as a friend you feel treated as a girl who is appreciated very much like you. You can laugh, can make you comfortable too, work hard, again. You can be happy with the people around you. Well, even though you sometimes baffle and byebelin, but I've always been amazed by your personality, Al.”
There was a smile that he was smiling. There's a mess he can't put in words.
“Gue is also if not your friend maybe I first who will confess to lo” Lisa laughs in words. Alpino imagined what Lisa had told him. Should they be unfriendly? Would it be better that way if she and Lisa could come together?
“Yeah, but how, yeah, what a pity. Lo, the same I already fit as a friend doang, Al. Maybe more family? Well, but if later you have someone I will also potek anyway, Al. I would be jealous if you already have a hand with”
“Dih, if jealousy yes why make me a friend? Soin girlfriend dong let ga jealous and potek”
Lisa laughs. He couldn't stop laughing from the start. The woman hit Alpino's shoulder hard and the man no longer tried to dodge. His heart was breaking. Funny how things turned around so fast.
But of course, he already predicted this would happen. It was all over and he knew in the end what step he was going to take.
Stop and open up another story on another path. In the end he could not continue to advance within the limits he liked. He's already lost a landslide.
“Ya jealousy and poteknya right because gaada again friend kayak lo. If you already have a handler I can not stick with you. If I'm your boyfriend, well, I can't imagine, Al. lo actually-has tittle as my best friend”
“Okay, I'm so sad. The same time you just become the best-friend-zone doang”
Alpino doesn't know. Whether his voice is like a broken hearted person or still joking and joking as usual with Lisa.
“No need to dramatize, deh. Don't bother me. I knew I was as high as the sky, so you want to seduce me, right? dih”
Lisa's face really looks relaxed as if there is no burden or feeling of any kind. The girl looks the same as her baby. A conversation that only sounds random and weightless. Talking to friends without involving feelings.
This is a point of consciousness. Alpino opened his eyes wide. He knows where this is resolved.
“Handering, Queen. Ah elah” Alpino waving in front of Lisa's usual pouting face. The man got up when he managed to fill the pool. “Lis, please bring your children here, deh. I want to enter them. I'm done, it's clean pool”
“Okay! Bentar”
The woman jumped excitedly. He found a box of labi-labi and koi fish. Bubble was already in Alpino's hands and he was waiting for Lisa to take over putting them in the pool with her own hands.
Lisa was so excited. The woman spoke to the fish and labi-labi in a sweet tone like talking to a child. Alpino offers a smile. Put hers even more formless inside.
They are now squatting in front of the pond with Lisa sprinkling food while Alpino arranges the lotus around her. He also put some colorful clean stones to the bottom of the pond more gently so that the fish are not so stressed.
“So, your relationship with Bang Noren has been very tight, huh? You do not complain and emotion again if there is him?”
Alpino's been holding back since then to talk about this. But she didn't want to spoil Lisa's pleasure, so, she held back for the end of the day. But since Lisa had already brought up the talk of feelings and rejection, she just wanted to lift it out. So that his feelings and curiosity can become more relieved than before.
“Dih, why bring the name of Kak Noren, anyway? Al, you ruined my relaxing day without her” Lisa's gaze was so cynical at her like wanting to kill. Alpino chuckles with laughter.
“But yesterday you took him to Fajri's show, right? And Hala also said that lo same bang Noren has become a couple goals version of MDM” children
He tried to tease, Elbowing the side of Lisa's arm, making the woman quickly stand on Alpino's foot with real force. The man complained, fell on the spot and almost rolled near a puddle of mud and moss.
“Kok is raging, anyway, Lis? I'm just nanya?”
“Lo isn't her, but provoking my emotions, Al. Udah, ah, I want to go inside, want to rest”
“Okay, start. Tuh child if his energy runs out already so urgency, scourging and very sensitive”
Alpino quickly catches up with Lisa. He already felt a headache when he saw patches of dirt and mud as a result of the footsteps Lisa entered the room.
