Romance at Dusk
Togetherness in the Dusk House

After cleaning the body, the four human children who had just arrived from the long journey then laid his body on the bed and did not consciously fall asleep afterwards. At about 11:00 Ryota awakens first, letting the engrossed Raka sleep herself out into the living room sat next to Kenan who was engrossed in watching the DVD of the Doraemon cartoon film which is currently airing an adventure edition doraemon film in the cloud kingdom.

"Said Bija, om Lio the city is the same as nobita?" point at the LED television screen in front of it.

"Yes you're right" Ryota answered stroking Kenan's head.

Mr. Joko has finished from the rice field is now at home and approached his grandson.

"Ken, who is that?" ask Mr. Joko, although he actually already knew that the person next to him must be his friends at Dusk, but the two have not been officially acquainted.

"This is Om Lio, Mbah kung," said Kenan trying to introduce Ryota like the way Dusk was this morning when introducing his friends to the mother.

Mr. Joko and Ryota finally get to know each other and chat about many things. Ryota who was the first arrival of Mr. Joko felt so nervous, now with his hospitality he became comfortable to exchange stories. About the automotive industry, the attitude of Dusk at work to Japanese culture became a chat this afternoon while accompanying Kenan who was engrossed in his favorite film. Until shortly Raka and Dila had been up and chatting, while Dusk helped the mother prepare food for lunch.

In the middle of the chat, the first brother of Dusk came to pick up Kenan. The wall clock has shown at 11:30 it is time for the puffed-up boy to take a nap, of course the boy refused, because at his grandparents' house it is more exciting considering there are friends of Dusk.

"Ken bobo at noon, after bobo we make toys together," Ryota persuaded.

"Promise ya om," Kenan pointed his little finger at Ryota as proof that the two were bound by promise. Ryota links his little finger with the property Kenan signs have agreed.

In the kitchen, Dusk helped his mother prepare dishes and move vegetables and side dishes to the food available at the dinner table.

"Oh, I have a boyfriend" said Dusk slowly want to introduce his girlfriend to the mother.

"Well ryota?" guess the mother, because from getting off the vehicle both appear close. While Raka had no qualms about calling beb with Dila, then it was definitely not the lover of Dusk.

"Hehe yes Ma'am," replied Dusk confirming the guess of Ms. Metta. His mother is indeed a person who is quite sensitive to his surroundings so it is not surprising to be able to guess correctly.

"He is of Japanese Javanese descent, so his mother is poor, Dusk has met Ryota's parents and they are both Bu, and Muslims are also from birth" continued Dusk again.

"What did you ask weton?" ask around, Miss Metta looked at her daughter.

"Yet ma'am, then Dusk find out first from his birth date," replied Dusk.

"Well ask his mother directly, if you see the date of birth is afraid of being wrong, then you help talk to your father," said Ms. Metta, Dusk who was so happy to finally hug his mother, and then he helped her, and his mother stroked the princess' head.

Midday meal is ready at the dinner table, ranging from fried chicken, asem vegetable, anointing and grated coconut, tempeh, tofu and fried fish, etc, sambel terasi and sambel pecel make those who see it must be hungry instantly, do not forget the slices of watermelon fruit as dessert is also prepared.

Dusk called his friends and the father who was chatting in front to go to the dining table to enjoy the food that had been served.

"Where's it?" tanya Dusk because her nephew who was busy watching the film now does not exist.

"Bobo was picked up by his father this afternoon" replied Mr. Joko.

"Tumben want?" ask Dusk back.

"Promised to make toys together with Ryo," replied Mr. Joko, Dusk nodded and at this time he and the others sat neatly in front of the tongue teaser menu.

"Where's it good?" asked Mr. Joko on the sidelines of the meal, he saw his guests were so greedy to enjoy the dish made by his wife, remember only his wife because her daughter could not cook so only help prepare the food, so only help prepare the place, plates and glasses or just cutting watermelon fruit.

"Son Ryo doyan too?" tanya Bu Metta saw Ryota several times taking an anointing.

"My mom used to cook like this, Mom, because it was one of her favorites" Ryota replied. Bu Dewi a native of Indonesia certainly makes the urep as a food that is often cooked when it starts to miss its native area.

"Well, in Japan there's anointing, too?" surprised Pak Joko because he still does not know if Ryota's mother is from Malang.

"My mother was originally Malang Pak, but moved to Japan when I got married, I was also quite fluent in Indonesian because I was taught by my mother," ryota replied wiping the leftovers with a tissue and then drinking water beside her. Joko sir nodded in understanding.

After lunch, there was a dhuhur adhan in the mosque near the house of Dusk. Finally, Pak Joko invited Raka to congregational prayer at the mosque, he still did not know if Ryota was also a Muslim. And he was shocked when Ryota entered the mosque. He observed Ryota who was ablution and then continued the sunnah prayer. Mr. Joko smiled faintly at this sight.

Finishing the congregational prayer, Mr. Joko asked Ryota slowly, because related to religion and belief he began the question with an apology so as not to ignore the feelings of his interlocutors.

"Son Ryo, sorry in advance if your question accidentally offended you, did you convert?" ask Mr. Joko carefully.

"Ohiya is okay sir, not sir, I was born Muslim because both my parents are also Muslim, only my Papa had previously converted before marrying my mother" Ryota explained.

"Oh so," Mr. Joko nodded in understanding. He was amazed to see Japanese Muslims in person, as long as he knew most Japanese citizens were followers of Shinto and Buddhism.

Arriving home, Mr. Joko and Ms. Metta permit a short break because at 13:00 later they have to return to the rice field. These four human children again enjoyed the dishes served by Ms. Metta. This time is a fruit dish, slices of fresh fruits combined with peanut spices are very suitable in the middle of this hot day

"When is the rice field?" tanya Dila was impatient to take pictures of the village girl.

"Hot the pineapple, late afternoon while looking at sunset how?" raka proposal.

"Pinter you bang," Dila gave a thumbs up towards Raka.

Dusk was seen standing, heading towards his room to pick up the wallet and cardigan.

"Where's mbak?" tanya Dila saw the already neatly carded Dusk.

"Buy used cardboard, make Kenan toys, later he wakes up to be able to rampage if not make toys, want to come?" tawar Dusk on Dila.

"What is the cardboard material?" tanya Dila then took the phone to see a tutorial on making a car park with cardboard. After being felt to have found an easy way with simple ingredients, finally Dusk and Dila headed to the nearest store to buy used cardboard and some helper materials. Ryota observes the video tutorial, while Raka chooses to spend the fruit.

Right said Dusk, exactly at 13:00 the boy Kenan had woke up from his nap, carrying a container of toys that contain a variety of hot wheels, other types of cars and some action figures collection. Lucky to see Ryota is starting to make a parking lot assisted by Raka.

He watched closely with such enthusiasm. Every now and then Dila feeds her with the brem she asked for yesterday during a video call, while Dila is busy taking a serious-looking picture of Raka.

Not how long parking space from cardboard so.

"Yeay good, Ken tata huh Om Ken's toy?" Kenan is happy that finally the car park has been made. After waiting a long time until he was bored, finally now so and good, he can't wait to arrange his toys.

"Please Ken, slow down" Ryota said.
