"Seriously lo, Ka?"

Rio still could not believe what he heard.

"Seriously, why am I lying. The guy I met at his dad's house Amanda and Amanda herself told me too. If Maureen is so."

"Bad child. I don't understand him anymore, just like his mind. Wanted to be rich times he was, yeah."

"Gue aja whose ex does not understand." said Arka.

"If she's why-why how?. Do you still have the same feelings as Maureen?"ask Rio again.

"Yes his name is ex, Ri. If you say there is no feeling at all yes, bulshit. In my years with him, I've slept together too. I just don't want to and won't want to anymore, if to be in a relationship with him. I also have a wife, I love and love my wife. There are my kids too, I love them. But if it is about life, I would still care about Maureen. Because I know his parents. If it's dangerous and needs help, I'll help."

"Where do you think he said?"

"Where do I know, I didn't say it. Caper doang. Let's look for the same fans in sosmed, so it goes viral." said Arka.

Rio was laughing.

"Yes, his name is also Maureen. It was like that before, right?"

"It used to be normal, the longer it gets worse" said Arka.

"It's a good thing you're not the same as him anymore, bro. If it's still your strength."

"Eatya, very lucky I met the Word." seloroh Arka later.

"You know, I'm a laper." said Arka.

"And I'm your ayank beb. As good as the aunt Firman, still better I accompany you."

Ryan was flushing his body with water coming out of the shower. This was already the last flushing stage, after that he had cleaned himself with castile soap. Suddenly the lights in the bathroom went off.

Ryan hurriedly picked up the towel then pressed the outlet back and forth. But the lamp seems to have reached the maximum limit. He came out of the bathroom, it turned out that the electricity was not out.

He turned to the kitchen, intending to make a cup of coffee. The old man tried to turn on the kitchen lights. The lamp lives for a moment and dies at that second.

"Hhhh."

Ryan sighed, it seems that there are already many things that must be replaced from this apartment. He abandoned his intention to make coffee and went to his room and changed his clothes.

After a while, he got out with the car keys. He wanted to buy a new light bulb. Because if only complain to the apartment, it can be replaced the next day or the day after. After all, this unit is his own, so he is fully responsible for what happens in it.

Ryan left the apartment, headed to a supermarket not too far away. Just shopping for things that have run out, he thought.

He shops. But after being on the way home, the man just remembered if he had not bought a light bulb. While if he returned to the back, he had to turn the direction that now seemed so stuck.

Ryan also paused his intention, and thought to complain about this to the apartment. But then he passed by in a building store that was quite large, was on the side of a road that he passed.

Ryan turned his car there. After getting a parking lot, he went out and approached the store.

"Good day." he said later.

"Jiang."

A man who appeared to be the owner of the store also returned Ryan's greeting. As Ryan fell silent, he realized who was now in front of him. Yes, that man was Ningsih's husband or Arka's stepfather.

"What are you looking for, sir?" ask Father Arka then.

"E, I want to buy a light bulb" Ryan said later.

Arka's stepfather called one of his employees.

"Yes, sir." said Hanif.

"Please get me a light bulb, for this father."

Hanif approached Ryan and asked what kind of light bulb the man wanted. At that time the store was crowded, Ryan was at the end and blocked other store visitors.

"Pa's."

Suddenly Arka appeared in the far right corner of the shop. But Arka did not see the whereabouts of Ryan who stood in the far left corner. Only Ryan was aware of the young man's arrival.

"Have you come home?" Her stepfather asked Arka.

"Koq's holiday today. Arka ask for a dong pa water filter, as well as cotton. Make in Rio kosan, the water is suddenly yellow. Ntar if not filtered, ntar rusty again tuh son." said Arka to his stepfather. The stepfather laughed too.

Ryan watched the conversation from the sidelines of the crowd of shop visitors.

"More." Her stepfather gave her what Arka asked for.

"Oh yeah, this is for papa to eat. Here's a martabak to eat with papa's employees."

"You've bothered a lot."

"Udah, pa. Papa eat yes abis this, don't forget to take medicine."

Arka brought a water filter and cotton that she asked for and then immediately say goodbye.

"Now, pa. The money."

"Take it with you."

"That's not it, it's a sale." Arka forced to give some money to her stepfather.

"Arka came home yes, pa." said Arka later.

"Be careful."

"Yes, papa don't forget to eat the same as taking medicine. When it's late, Arka's angry."

"Yes." Yeah." His stepfather laughed as he shook his head.

Ryan's feelings are now crumbling. He was never even treated that way by Ansel and Nino, including Arka himself. As for his stepfather, Arka seemed so considerate.

Food is something everyone can buy if they have money. But who gave it to us, it makes the food more meaningful.

"Sir, which light?" ask the store staff later.

"E, this one. Two." said Ryan.

After paying Ryan back to the apartment, and install both lights in two places that had been damaged.

"Don't forget to eat, take medicine."

The words of Arka now flashed back across his mind, he remembered how his son had treated the stepfather. There was an uneasy feeling coming back in his heart.

"Dad."

Nino and Ansel arrive at Ryan's apartment, and Ryan has not closed the door.

"Hey." said Ryan to the two kids.

Nino and Ansel prepare to head to the stairs, because they want to go up to the top floor and intend to fall.

"You guys, don't buyin daddy eat?" ask Ryan.

Nino and Ansel paused for a moment while frowning. The two of them looked at Ryan, then looked at the dining table full of food. There is chicken satay, rice, vegetable soup, fruits and so forth.

"Father lo kufur deliciously." whispered Ansel to Nino, at once Nino chuckled.

"Tau, tau an lo same kufur scrumptious."

"Often the lecture in the mosque next to where I live" said Ansel then passed by the stairs.

"E, daddy, what do you want to eat?" asked Nino while looking at the dining table. At once Ryan realized, if he had bought a lot of food.

"Mm, I mean daddy. You guys don't want to eat?" Ryan switched the conversation.

"It's just dad, just pause again" said Nino later.

Ryan nodded, Nino immediately followed Ansel who was still walking the stairs.

"For the first time he's err." Ansel told Nino. The man just laughed.

"His name is also grandfather." continued Ansel again and again Nino laughed. While Ryan only sighed, he was now laughing at himself. Not as lucky as Arka's stepfather.
