"Ck, like a runny man I look at all these mamas." Inner Moana, when she saw the mothers who were reunion laughing out loud as they told the story of their college days in this boarding house.
"Mak! hungry me.." Moana said, as Butet was busy talking with his three Companions.
"Well, you eat this yam first." Said Butet, while pointing to the rest of the boiled sweet potatoes that live just a few seeds on the plate.
"I ate it from earlier. Not full, farting too I." Moana Grumbles.
"Ck! you're Moana, her mama's hot as well. You are busy too!" Butet did not want to lose to Moana.
"Ish the Butet tea, don't be so careful..." Tegur Cempaka's.
"Yes, recok her times. You're cool, too." Complain Butet.
"But your kid's tea is laper or Tet."
"Rhinoceros food. Just this sweet potato."
"Yes you order Tet, it's an online application that's mah." Siti Tegur.
"Ck!" Butet grabs her cell phone to find food for Moana.
"Gini is mamak, cool he said, especially on the phone, forgot his time. Let alone you, your father did not look the same cake mother." Chirps Moana.
Butet and his three friends fell silent and looked at Moana who was talking too honestly in front of the butet and everything.
"Eh, how do you say that's the cake, son?" Butet asked while smiling awkwardly and glaring at Moana.
"Indeed, that cake mamak. My father never said to me. She said she was busy. That's why I'm busy outside. Ikot the same motorcycle club is it?" Moana said again.
Suddenly silent atmosphere. Butet felt struck by Moana's words that made him realize, it turns out Moan had conveyed his strangeness to Moana.
"Eh, hmmm, when did you seem to be saying that cake?" Butet asked, as he approached Moana.
"Long time, he got into his club. Oh, I am not hungry anymore. Eat my yam." Moana got up from her seat and took out two pieces of boiled yam. Then he walked to the room.
Butet fell silent, he sat back on the sofa and bowed in shame. No one said a word. A moment later, Romi is seen walking after Moana to the room.
"Tet," Call Siti.
Buset turned his head and smiled wryly, then he let out a long sigh and leaned his back against the back of the sofa.
"What Moana says is true wee" Butet said, breaking the silence between them all.
"I mean Tet?" Ask Cempaka.
"Sometimes I'm just as busy as myself. Cemana ya wee, my days are just housewives. Sometimes I help at the cafe. But not often. But Moan, he goes out every day, moves from the cafe to our branch cafes. I realized, our life depends on the cafe. Moan insisted on handling it himself. But he's the boss, he can have time for us. Sometimes he comes home tired. I'm confused as to what, right? I'm busy too, sometimes the same phone calls my former college friends or homeroom students at Kindergarten Si Moana. Honestly, my stress."
All were silent and sighing deeply simultaneously.
"Honestly, I'm tea alike." Cempaka Chirps.
Everyone looked at Cempaka who now looked glum.
"I'm sometimes tired of taking care of children at home. It feels like tea, a college degree can't make me proud. You guys understand the tea yourself, I tea the same a' Rozy first married. Keep having kids. Sometimes I'm tired of tea, take care of the child. I drink like other working mothers. While a' Rozy tea is delicious, every weekday, meet people, coworkers. So he's not stressed tea at all. But my tea tastes bad. Sad me..." Cempaka.
Everyone went back to silence. Siti glanced at Sri who was also glancing at him.
"Apo's? are you confiding in Juo Sry?" Ask Siti.
Sri frowned and shook her head.
"Problem what are you Sri?" Ask Butet.
"Cock me anyway? urip me loh sante, ora ono problem." Sri Sahut.
"You're stupid, right?" Cecar Butet's.
"Yesaannn..!"
"Heaven't idop you apparently?" Butet still does not believe in Sri's confession.
"Apo pulo's..." Siti tries to avoid accusations from Sri.
"Wes ceritakno Ti, rasah stuffing." Cecar Sri again.
Siti let out a long sigh and looked at Sri with a stare that seemed to be upset with her best friend.
"If it's ambo, Dak do jo uda Batra problem. But, you know the surang, if the beginning of the family of Ambo indak agree jo da Batra. Ambo thought after ambo married jo uda Batra, urang tuo ambo was agree jo uda Batra. It turns out...." Siti stopped her speech and bowed lethargic.
"What's real about Ti?" Tanya Cempaka who is the sister-in-law of Siti.
"As you know Cem, Batra has tried to stay in Padang, for the sake of urang tuo ambo's request. But you know what Cem is, in Padang it's a little difficult to find work. indak helpak in the capital doh." Bright Siti again.
"Well, where's the problem?" Ask Butet.
"Yes, if it's hard to find a job, you know what a cheat is Tet. Unemployment is certain. Then, when did uda Batra become farmers? Although Uda Batra was once a karajo in Padang, but the salary there..." Siti let out a long sigh and exhaled with a face that looked full of weight.
"Hurry up you say, half a pound. kek soap operon a thousand episodes I see your problem!" Urge Butet.
"Sek to Tet," Sri flicked her hand in front of Butet's face.
"Yes, intinyo uda ko is wrong in mato ka duo urang tuo ambo." Siti Reassert.
Everyone took a deep breath and leaned back on the sofa.
"Now you!" Butet pointed at Sri abruptly, making Sri aghast in surprise.
"Opo anyway?" Sri looked at her three best friends in turn.
"Urip ku loh selow, tenan loh iki," said Sri.

Romi looked at Moana who was sitting on the bed while devouring the boiled yam that he took on the table earlier. Then he stepped closer to Moana and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"Moana," Call Romi.
"What?" Sahut Moana with her indifferent attitude.
"Your father wants a divorce?" Ask Romi.
Moana stopped chewing, then she frowned her chin and bowed lethargicly.
"Don't know me."
"Propay for Moana." Romi rubbed Moana's hair gently and affectionately.
Moana looked at Romi with teary eyes holding back tears.
"Bang, I don't want my mom to split up. I miss you, father bang" Moana said with tears beginning to drip down her cheeks.
Romi looked at Moana with a look of pity. Then he smiled and wiped Moana's tears with his fingers.
"Don't cry. There's a brother here."
Feeling noticed, Moana's tears were getting louder. He hugged Romi tightly, trying to seek refuge from his broken heart, from a Romi whom he had considered to be his own brother and brother.
"Don't cry, we play again." Persuad Romi's.
"Yes bang."
"Yes, remove her tears. Your mom will know."
Moana let go of her embrace and wiped her tears in a hurry. Then he again put on a cheerful face and smiled at Romi.
"Well, that's beautiful." Praise Romi.
Moana smiled broadly, then she went back to devouring the remaining one piece of boiled yam.
