"Why didn't you tell me earlier, hmm?" ask Bumi while pinching Shanum's friendly nose
"If you say from the beginning, I won't think anything and accuse you of being nothing like that" Bumi said gently.
Earth's kindness and patience in facing Shanum all this time, has melted the teenage girl's heart. At first he insisted on not dating until completing his undergraduate education. However, Earth's attitude and concern for Shanum shifted the purpose of her wish.
"Sorry," said Shanum Lirih while playing his fingers, so that the Earth is increasingly anxious to see the behavior of the idol.
"Yes, don't repeat it again! Honesty is better than covering up the truth. Be honest even if it hurts," the message of Earth as she walked towards her motorbike.
"Which way should I go, let's get to the chicken noodle shop?" ask the Earth when the engine is on.
"It's straight, turn right. Distance some houses there is a soto warung script, next to it there is chicken noodle writing. Well, there just choose to buy soto or chicken noodles. Usually soto's clock is up" explained Shanum long and wide to make the Earth laugh.
"If asked for directions, answer him not to the other time too! Just answer, straight to the point. After that turn right, find the writing of the chicken noodle shop. Enough already! Don't go anywhere" said the Earth with a smile and shook his head. Shanum simply replied with a grimace holding in shame.
The Earth leaves Shanum's yard to buy chicken noodles, for their lunch. Usually Bumi will invite Shanum to stop by the shop or cafe, but earlier he forgot because he was arguing about the carrying.
About half an hour later, Earth brought back two packs of chicken noodles with separate broths. In addition, he also bought one plastic cracker as a friend eating chicken noodles.
Shanum moved the chicken noodles into the bowl. Shanum also took a plate of rice for the two of them. Shanum apparently fried the eggs when left to the stall.
"Waahhh, so complete what we eat. The cake of the married man. Let's get married, yuk!" suddenly Earth.
Shanum immediately coughed, as he choked on his own saliva upon hearing Earth's marriage invitation.
"Drink! Why is it that you can choke when you haven't eaten?" The earth offers a glass of water to the lover.
Not only that, one hand gently rubbed Shanum's back to help relieve Shanum's cough. Instead of subsiding, it turns out Shanum's cough is becoming more and more because of the gentle swab.
"Kok cough even increased anyway? So drink first, let's not cough!" Earth really does not know, if the swipe of his hand even makes Shanum cough increasingly become due to groggy.
The earth blew Shanum's head off, and he treated Shanum like a child. The love of Earth for Shanum is so great. So that without Earth knowing, Shanum shed tears. Shanum felt very happy, getting preferential treatment from a man who had many advantages.
Shanum's cough subsided after the Earth stopped wiping his back and changed to blow Shanum's head. The earth looked at Shanum's face. How surprised he was, seeing tears on the cheeks of the lover.
"Why cry, hmm? It hurt because of the cough earlier," asked Bumi worriedly.
"No. Shanum is okay. Yuk, we're eating bad cold!" sahut Shanum shook his head.
Actually Earth still wants to ask, but undone for the sake of worms in the stomach that has begun to demo. They finally ate in silence. Occasionally the two steal a glance with a blushing face.
Shanum, which doctors forbid to eat flavored food, only takes mustard vegetables in the bowl of Earth. The earth had already memorized it, so he willingly gave his vegetables for the lover of heart.
"Later if the Gimbul comes, the noodles have not been developed so it can still be eaten. Just heat the sauce," explained Shanum.
Gimbul is the call of Ami's great children. The real name of the Son, because of his great body he was called Gimbul. The son is currently seventh grade Junior High. He comes home every afternoon to accompany Shanum while he is in the hospital.
"What time is Gimbul coming here?" ask Bumi while putting the plate because it has finished eating.
"Usually after Ashar came, I don't know today. Maybe soon comes his son," Shanum replied as he piled the dirty dishes into one.
Shanum brought in the dirty dishes and bowls they had eaten earlier. Put it in a basin containing dirty dishes. While chicken noodles and rice that have not been eaten are stored on the table and closed*** (service hood).
Bumi and Shanum chatted for a while, before long Earth went home.

During the time Mr. Yanto was hospitalized, Shanum's days were accompanied by Earth after school. It invites gossip in Shanum village.
"Still little already dating! His father was hospitalized again. You kid now!"
"Every day bring your girlfriend home again. Is it because the house is empty? That's why he dared to bring men home!"
"Yes, that! We have to report, Mr. Bayan, let it be reprimanded! Don't let our village be used for perverts!"
And there are still many other rumors circulating in the village. Every time the Earth came, she never went into the house. He and Shanum were just sitting on the terrace or under the water guava tree in the courtyard.
"Sister! Brother Earth don't have to take Shanum home again, yes! Shanum doesn't feel good about the neighbors" Shanum told Earth when Earth wanted to drive him home.
"Why?"
"Shanum digosipin same neighbor. Afraid that your pain will get worse if you hear. So for a while, you don't have to take Shanum home or come home" Shanum explained.
"No need to hear people talk. People say just origin. No need to think about. We're the ones who go through why people talk?"
"Ihh. Can't! There is no bargaining or Shanum is angry," Shanum ultimatum so inevitably Earth obeys the will of the lover of the heart.
"OK! Brother is not going to your house anymore, but we will meet until Brother goes to college" bargained with Earth.
"If it's the school day can still be met, brother. But, if it's school holidays how do you want to find it?" ask Shanum.
The two were silent for a while, thinking about how to meet during the school holidays later. Suddenly the Earth flicked its finger, the sign had already found a way.
"Ahaa.. I've got an idea!"
