Rendra ruffled the front of her head while leaning herself against the car seat. In his heart he cursed himself. How could he say that??? Rendra exhaled loudly and then bit her lips.
Rizal who was sitting behind the wheel watching his friend's behavior was strange. They were on their way home from Copikita. They just got back from there when the cafe was closed. If Copikita had not closed until the morning, they might have stayed there. Rizal did deliberately do that so that Rendra had plenty of time to approach with Raras.
"Why you? Kissing off?" Rizal asked as long as he spoke with a confused face watching his friend who seemed frustrated.
"Astaghfirullah's. Crazy you, Bang!!" Tukas Rendra was shocked by his friend's disgraceful guess.
"Haha. You see, I saw you bite your lips just now. Well, maybe your lips just visited whose lips are they?" Said Rizal still with his original guess.
"Your brainpower, Bang!! Tomorrow morning it must be washed!!"
"Maha." Rizal laughed out loud.
"Tomorrow the night with me, Bang!" Rendra said at last while looking at his friend seriously.
"Where?"
"Cinema."
"Well, tumben-tumbenan you want to watch?" Rizal was astonished by the friend next to him who rarely even invited him to go to the cinema.
"I was talking, Bang. When I asked Raras to go to the movies anyway?" Rendra said with her face half gawking as if she had done something wrong and was not aware of it.
"Hahahaha, why is it? Not that watching bisokop is natural, right? Watching people shower is unnatural!" Rizal replied as he shook his head and refocused on driving.
"Ckckl! If people take a shower it's called, Bang. Watch time? Hahahahaha," Rendra's laughter immediately broke upon hearing his rowdy brother's speech. He imagined if he was really watching people shower, flocking?
"Maha." Rizal's getting uprooted.

Next day.
Mayra that afternoon was alone with Wuni in Griya's kitchen. Both are eating instant noodles with a lot of sausages and chili slices that were cooked by Wuni. Rendra and Anto are there too. But they were busy in the equipment room tidying up and changing the position of the cabinets in the room to make it more pleasing to the eye.
"Wun, do you know about Lina?" Ask Mayra in the middle of her super spicy noodle meal.
Wuni shook her head slowly. He did not immediately reply as his mouth was still full of the noodles he had just put in.
"The number is active, ma'am. It's just that every time I call, Lina never wants to take it," Wuni replied after the noodles in her mouth had gone into her stomach.
"Yes. I'm the same. I went to his house yesterday, but it was empty."
Wuni looked on pity. She knew Mayra was well-intentioned by trying to contact and visit Lina. But in fact his friend who is good at make up is not willing to forgive the mother of one child next to him.
"Yes, let it go first, Ma'am. Maybe Lina still needs time to be alone," Wuni advised. Mayra agreed.
"Oh yeah Wun, we go to Kopikita sometime, yuk. The coffee is good, you know. I just tried it yesterday. The aroma, beeeeuh was fragrant, delicious," Mayra closed her eyes while breathing the air as if the smell of coffee was there.
"Rubber!! Yuk, when are we there?"
"Where are you going?" Tanya Anto who suddenly came and immediately took the bottled mineral water in the refrigerator. While still standing, Anto sipped the water until it would run out so thirsty.
"Hust, if you drink, sit down, O Allah!" Mayra rebuked her friend. Anto who turned out to immediately spend a bottle of water was just grimacing in shame.
"Hehehe, thirsty, Ma'am. Oh yeah, I heard 'there, there', where'd it go? Follow dooong!" Anto said as he picked up one chair and dragged it close to the wall, then he sat there.
"Ke Kopikita, let's go there!" Bring Wuni enthusiastic.
Before long, Rendra came and opened the fridge to grab a drink as well. Rendra looked at his one-on-one friend who was sitting in a circle in the kitchen.
"In a meeting??" Asked Rendra origin while gulping down the water standing up.
"Woy if you drink sit down, woy!!" Said Anto while pulling Rendra's clothes.
Rendra who was busy drinking did not pay attention to the ignorant hands of his friend. He kept sipping the water until it was half over. Rendra then took one seat and dragged it close to Anto.
"Marahi also dong, Ma'am, this one human!" Anto protests at Mayra while pointing at Rendra with her index finger. Rendra looked at Anto and tekekeh.
"It was represented by you, Nto. Yes, it is my duty to be deeeeeeh's dead" replied Mayra casually. Rendra chuckled again.
"Is that so? Eliminated this anyway," protested Anto again.
"Huh?? Eliminated? What does that mean?" Tanya Wuni was astonished by the language her friend used.
"DISCRIMINATION, Wuni...Hahahahaha," Anto's laughter bubbled up all by herself.
"Oh, bad this guy huh!! Haha." Wuni laughed. While Mayra and Rendra just chuckled watching the two friends.
"Let's Ren come along too!!" Take Wuni while putting a spoonful of noodles in her mouth.
"Where are you?"Rendra asked while still holding the bottle, he sat with both elbows resting on his knees. Mayra has been deliberately stocking a lot of bottled mineral drinks in the Griya refrigerator for her friends to make it more practical, wasteful. One or two drops of sweat were seen on Rendra's temple.
Mayra who glimpsed Rendra deeply admitted that the man before her was indeed handsome. Moreover, that day, the plain ash T-shirt that Rendra wore looked wet in some parts because of his sweat. But that sight only made the man even more dashing. Moreover, Rendra's muscular arms look almost perfect. Mayra sighed slowly. The sight before him was truly his ordeal.
"To Kopikita, yuk! Mayra will be the one who deals with all of us. Isn't that right, Mommy?" Wuni asked as she leaned her face at the friend beside her.
Hearing Wuni's original statement, Mayra chuckled almost choking. He did not say that he would practice everything. Wuni is always there. Nevertheless, Mayra immediately agreed to the idea of his friend.
"Yes. Let's go over there! Lately we have rarely gone casually in crowds again," said Mayra while staring at one by one her co-workers alternately asking for approval.
Anto and Wuni answered quickly and vigorously. While Rendra can only be silent since Wuni said Kopikita earlier. There is nothing wrong with Mayra. But in Kopikita there is Raras, and Rendra does not want the two women to meet each other. Rendra was confused. The plan of his friends was indeed a rare opportunity to get, go in crowds with colleagues in addition to work affairs.
Seeing all his friends smiling vigorously, Rendra was only able to smile stiffly. Why should it be Copikita?
