Clap Next to Hand


Ms. Yuyun entered the kitchen and stood near Surya who was mixing cucumber slices with ingredients to make her pickle turned her head when she learned of the presence of the housekeeper.


"I'm so inferior every time you enter the kitchen, sir." Said Ms. Yuyun.


"Why, Mommy?" Surya by stirring his pickles.


"You're better at cooking than I am." Ma'am Yuyun then chuckled.


"Mak Yuyun's carousel is delicious. Meat gulai, roast chicken, fried duck and salted squid sambel mbak Yuyun taste very good. I add rice when I eat it all."


"Really, Sir?" Surya nodded.


"Again this family is also very suitable with the cuisine of Madam Yuyun. Papa, Mama and Miss Gina love Ma'am Yuyun's cooking."


"Yes, but now Miss Gina is turning away from me after Mr. Surya came here." Surya looked at Mbak Yuyun while frowning. There was a question mark on his head.


"Miss Gina always ate fried rice Pak Surya very greedily. Like that." Ma'am Yuyun turned her head towards Gina who was followed by Surya.


Feeling caught by Surya, Gina who was watching him chatting with Mbak Yuyun became a crime. Especially when Surya smiled at him, Gina became misbehaved.


"Miss Gina really likes fried rice made by Mr. Surya. I've tried to use the recipe that Mr. Surya gave but the taste still can not be as good as yours. I realized that's why there's a different-flavored hand."


"Sir Yuyun is there. The hand will not affect the taste, if the spice is the same it must taste the same."


"It is evident when eating my fried rice Miss Gina is not that gluttonous." Ms. Yuyun who was cutting vegetables still argued.


"Or is it because Mr. Surya added love to his fried rice?" Ma'am Yuyun looked at Surya fixedly. Hearing that Surya wanted to laugh but he could stand it.


"I added a winery to it." Surya then lifted the plate containing his homemade pickles to be taken to the dining table. Ms. Yuyun gawked at the words of her employer's son-in-law.


"Be careful, Sir. Miss Gina is in PMS time." Whisper Mbak Yuyun then who Surya could still hear from where he stepped. Surya gave him the code by opening his eyes that he understood what to do.


From the kitchen Ma'am Yuyun monitored the couple closely. Read their gestures and facial language.


"What's wrong with them. They are officially married. Equally educated. Beautiful and handsome. Their eyes both said 'I love you'. But why is their attitude always so with each other? Where's the fault?" Sister Yuyun muttered to herself thinking of the two young people at the dining table.


"Prestigious? Is it because of prestige? Yeah right, definitely because of that. Miss Gina did at first reject Mr. Surya desperately but now instead she really likes Mr. Surya." Ma'am Yuyun developed a smile.


"Yes God... Just eat that prestige, miss. How long will Miss hold? That handsome guy every day Miss meets. Can you just let it go?" Sister Yuyun now giggled herself to see Gina and Surya talking.


Mbak Yuyun saw Gina seem to maintain her indifferent expression to cover up her feelings. He was sure Gina was really happy now that Surya was in front of her. The person he said he missed last night to upset him.


"Lho.. uh, really..." Sister Yuyun saw Gina who left Surya at the dining table and headed for her room on the second floor. He grumbled to watch the two young couples who like to play with the cats.


Surya enters the room just as Gina will also open the door from the inside. They finally met face to face there. Surya looked at Gina who was in front of him.


"What's wrong?" Gina asked in a cold tone as she was stared at like that by Surya.


"Do you want to exercise?"


"Yes." Yeah." Surya nodded his head understanding.


"Sama, I'm going to exercise too." Surya said with a smile.


Gina immediately turned her face looking at that.


"Have you?" Ask Gina.


"What's it?" Surya did not understand Gina's intentions.


"When you're done talking, move aside. I have to go through." Said Gina like someone Surya knew back then, not Gina who he knew lately. Gina who was haughty and was cold to him. Surya then shifted his legs and gave way to Gina.


What was? Why did Miss Gina become like that? Hasn't his attitude recently begun to soften. Inner Surya was astonished to see Gina's change in attitude.


Before he left, Gina was not like that. But today ever since they met at the dinner table, Gina seemed indifferent to him. Surya was wondering.


"The "side effect of PMS is really that serious. It's so creepy." Surya said while changing his clothes with a shirt for him to wear sports this time.


Gina's sweat started to wet her forehead. Fist after fist he lay towards the sandsack in front of him. He's very excited. Coupled with his mood being erratic like this between annoyed but also happy, the sandsack was his target that would not pose a risk.


When he was still excited with his fists on the sandsack, Surya entered and put on a treadmill located in one corner of the room not far from Gina standing. Surya started running slowly there. Gina knew it but she ignored it and considered it non-existent. Although he misses Surya but his sense of regret is dominating. How can he look nothing happened while outside the city Surya completely ignored the phone and also the message he sent to his phone.


Surya occasionally glanced at Gina who ignored him like that. Surya still can't understand what really happened to Gina but he feels he has to make a connection and Gina can get along like before he went out of town.


Surya stopped his activities on the treadmill and approached Gina.


"Miss, after this let's get out."


"No, I'll be home today." Gina replied without paying attention to Surya and was still busy with the sandsack in front of her. Gina did do it on purpose and will be the opposite opponent to everything Surya wants.


"The weather's so bright, it's a pity that we're home alone."


"We live in a tropical country, this kind of weather can be enjoyed at any time." Gina is still indifferent.


"Let's go to the beach, Miss."


"No way, my skin can burn when the weather is this hot."


"Isn't it good for skin to be exotic?"


"I like my skin white. I did a lot of things and spent a lot of money on this. How can I ruin my own business."


Amidst his fist towards the sandsack, Surya suddenly hugged the sandsack and hoped that this time Gina would notice it.


"Then how about we just chat while drinking hot chocolate?" Surya is still trying to persuade Gina not to be that old again to him.


"I'm lazy to talk to anyone." Gina looked at Surya.


"So move. I don't want you to faint because my fist missed your face."


"You're too good to do a missed punch, miss." Praise Surya. But Gina looked unaffected at all.


"Have not interfered. Do whatever your own pleasure."


"I don't like having fun on my own, Miss. I'd like to share my pleasure with you." Hearing that Gina then looked at Surya, with sharp eyes and still tapered lips but her heart was a little happy.


"Alright, forgive me for not having time to contact Miss while out of town." Surya. But hearing that, Gina turned her body and intended to leave.


"Wait, Miss." Surya managed to stop Gina by grabbing her arm. Gina looked at Surya's hand.


"I will not reason because of the busyness that does not tell you because it will sound I defend myself. But I'm obviously sorry." Surya's brownish eyes looked straight at Gina who still said nothing.


"Why did you say that to me?" Said Gina still with her cold face.


"Because maybe that's why you're so upset with me."


"Why was I upset with you for not contacting me outside the city yesterday? We are not in a marriage relationship like everyone else. You remember that, don't you?"


"I remember, Miss." Surya lowered his head hearing Gina like not just reminding but rather giving her a warning so as not to think too much about herself.


"But still, I feel your frustration to me for being about it."


"Who's upset with you?" Gina ketus.


"Before I went out of town, Miss seemed fine. But when I came home, Miss was different to me. So I thought it was because you were upset with me for not contacting you at all while there." Gina was still listening to what Surya wanted to say.


"Or maybe you're upset because you miss me?" Surya's words were like a cold wind caressing his ears.


"What's? Missed you? Miss you?" Gina smiled cynically in response to that because she did not want Surya to know that her guess was correct.


"Am I wrong, Miss?"


"Of course you're wrong. It's a big mistake to interpret this as what's on your mind."


"Dearly enough. That means miss me clapping one hand." Surya looked at Gina straight.


"What?" Gina blinked her eyes many times trying to convince herself that what she heard was not wrong.


Hanna opened her eyes and squirmed to relax her entire achy body. He smiled at the wall clock in his room. It's almost noon. Only on holidays like this can he do everything as he pleases. He then touched the phone next to him. Open an online food ordering service provider application. This morning he didn't want to cook, he wanted to eat something from the outside but didn't want to go out.


Looking at the menus of the various outlets on offer, Hanna was getting hungry.


"It looks good." Hanna pressed the button of a subscription store that had been registered as one of the sellers of the application.


"Add this, and drink this." Furthermore Hanna put orders, batagor, shrimp crackers and ice cendol into her account basket.


After finishing ordering, Hanna got out of her sleep and headed to the bathroom to take a shower while waiting for her upcoming order in about twenty minutes.


Right after Hanna finished her bath and was combing her back hair, someone knocked on the door. Hanna immediately walked towards the front door to pick up the order she had been waiting for.


"Get me breakfast." A man carried two boxes whose scent Hanna knew what they contained. Hanna smiled broadly at the man.


Hanna's rented house is simple. It was a type 36 house consisting of 2 rooms, living room, kitchen and bathroom. He chose to live in a rented house because he did not like the noise if he had to live in a boarding house whose rooms were next to each other. Moreover, he has a car, so living in a garage that has a garage like his contract so it is more comfortable for him.


"Why come all of a sudden?" Hanna asked while carrying two glasses of drinking water to take to the living room which was at once the dining room for her at the moment.


"Why is that?" Bayu asked as he opened the paper box containing mixed rice in front of him.


"At least let me know first that you'll be here with breakfast."


"It's not a surprise that I'm telling you."


"Your surprise doesn't surprise me at all." Hanna sat up while folding her hands on her chest.


"Then what's the fate of my Batagor?"


"Let me eat your batagorms too. Now, just eat this mixed rice. Didn't you say you wanted to eat mixed rice yesterday?" Said Bayu while eating his breakfast voraciously.


Hanna looked at Bayu as she blushed her lips but then smiled happily. How could it be by just hearing Hanna want to eat mixed rice, now Bayu came by bringing her that.


"Alright, I'll eat mixed rice. It's pretty much. It would be a pity if I didn't eat. Besides I feel sorry for you who came all the way here to bring me this."


"Good, at least appreciate my efforts. Even without thanking me and even nagging me." Syndir Bayu. Hanna looked at him.


"Oh yes, thank you." Hanna said while holding back her smile got the insinuation from Bayu.


"To be fair, we share two."


"What's similar? This mixed rice I bought. So, batagor it's instead."


"Hey, since when did you become this kind of calculation?" Hanna glared at Bayu.


"Since this day."


"Hahh, what the fuck is this." Hanna rolled her eyes lazily.


"And this ice cendol is for me too." Bayu grabbed the ice cendol in front of Hanna.


"Ehh, can't." Hanna took back the ice cendol with the packaging of the plastic wrap cup.


"Just to me. You'll get fat because it's too sweet."


"No, you think I'm stupid to be fat just for drinking ice cendol."


"This kid doesn't believe it at all." Bayu tried to take back the ice cendol. Eventually they took each other and both wanted to have. But because of the wet packaging due to dew around the plastic glass, finally the ice cendol glass fell and. prakk! The cup made of plastic was broken. The cendol water is leaking.


Hanna and Bayu are both fixated on watching the ice cendol that they fight now only remains memories. Bayu swallowed his saliva because he did not enjoy ice cendol.


"So broken. It's because of you." Hanna looks upset.


"At least, this is fair enough than we're fighting over it."


"What's that. Of course it's because of your greed." Bayu can only put on a big smile because it is true.


"Now clean it up." Hanna sat down and opened the rice box.


"Well, Ndoro." Bayu acted like a courtier of a court. Hanna felt funny and did not get angry but instead smiled. Then Bayu goes to the back to pick up the cleaning device. He memorized every corner of Hanna's residence because it had often come.
