Sometimes Friends are the Enemy
The Part 37

They all stood up to him while folding their hands.

"What's this rame-rame in front of my house?" He got off his motorcycle and approached them.

"Where are you?" Ask Joko.

"There's inside. What's wrong? Is there any need for you to be with Tuti?"

"Just want to know how she is." Answer Joko.

"He's fine. No problem at school?" Ask the middle-aged man.

"There is no om. All are safe. Aye right? Hehehehe..." They all said and pretended to laugh.

"Oh, all right, if that's it go in first. You guys want to go straight back?"

Feeling that there was no invitation to enter, they all became reluctant to speak out about their true purpose.

"Hehehehe. It's late tonight, my mom's coming." Joko.

"All right, o'm in. You guys be careful on the road."

But as soon as he entered and was not far from the door yet, the four boys began to argue with each other,

"Hey, why did you say we were going straight home? Huh uh?" Snap Siti while pushing Joko's shoulder. Betty and Linda also did not stay silent and also surrounded him,

"You should have gone home. Because you are not important. Don't involve us. We still have important business with Tuti. But because of you, it's all messed up."

But Joko is silent and does not retaliate despite having been pushed to the point of falling.

"I wonder about you. What the hell do you want?" Siti grew furious because Joko acted pious. Because usually he will curse people who are arbitrary to him even though it is a woman.

Then she snapped at him again, "Joko! You want to go or I'll kick it? Huh uh?"

Siti grabbed her shirt and prepared to raise her fist. But unfortunately, the action failed because at the same time, once the door opened, his father Tuti moved quickly to stop the fist. "What's this about? Why are you even fighting? You're friends."

They all became misbehaved, especially Siti who now looks like a thug.

But in order for the situation not to get worse, he spoke softly to them,

"Actually what did you come here for? It's already night. If there's anything to talk about, at school it can be."

"Mmm.yes. Hehehehe. Then we go home, o'm."

"Yes already. Directly home. Don't fight anymore. Watch out if you get noisy again in front of the house om. Om suru you all paint your house until it's done. Understand!"

"yes om. We went straight home. Excuse me, um." Answer them all.

They immediately turned around and walked slowly hoping they could still turn to meet Tuti. But they don't know that Tuti's father is still standing to make sure they're really gone. So when they looked back, they were shocked and laughed because they did not expect to be watched. Scratching their heads, they said again,

"Yes, we're going home. Hehehe...."

**********

When the man entered his house, he called his wife and son but there was no answer. He checked the whole room and found they were still sleeping.

"Ckckck.. gee.. I could sleep in the bathroom."

It was in his brain to record it and put it on his social media vlog. So he quickly pulled the phone out of his pocket and started blogging before they woke up.

"Hallo friends all...

Today I want to show you something amazing. My wife and daughter can sleep in the bathroom. Look, they sleep very well like they sleep on a soft mattress."

Then he pointed his camera at his wife and highlighted her gaping mouth. "Guys, look, from his mouth we can conclude that he got quality sleep. Maybe the cold temperature in this bathroom beats the AC temperature in the room, so it makes the sleep more quality. Maybe this can be used as one of the recommendations for you insomnia."

But while he was still talking on his vlog, suddenly his wife woke up and immediately saw his live broadcast. Immediately his wife got up and directly hit him until his phone was thrown and died, then he wrestled with her husband.

Tuti, who had also woken up, quickly got out of the bath to stop his father and mother.

Mom and dad why?"

"Look at your shameless father's behavior! How dare he broadcast live to highlight the mother who was mangap."

"Dad it's really outrageous huh? I should be ashamed of my mother too. If you want to highlight, highlight the good things. Ah, done! Tuti's gonna change clothes first."

He left his father and mother and went to his room, changed his wet clothes and looked at his cell phone.

"Gosh, missed call until twenty. What do they need to call me this much?

All right, mending me call me back."

He scrolls through his phone screen looking for Betty's name and contacts her many times, but her phone never picks up because she is karaokean with Linda and Siti.

After they leave the Tuti house, the three agree to skip study and decide to have fun at Siti's house, because they have promised not to learn the group if the group members are incomplete.

Tuti also called Linda, but still not appointed as well as Siti.

"Well..where are the kids? On the phone, it is not lifted up.

Ah...already! I sleep a little."

He was lying down but could not sleep because his eyes were still fresh after sleeping for hours in the bathroom. So he got up and sat down at his study table reading a book. Suddenly remembered by him a race that would soon be held at his school.

"Oh yeah, there's a race. Siti, Betty and Linda have not listed yet. I forgot it was the same for them. Try me calling them again."

One by one he called many times until his heart was hot, but his call was also not answered. The three friends no one held his cell phone and were engrossed in karaoke until ten p.m.

Once they are satisfied, they go back to their homes.

*********

Then when Linda opened the door of her house about to enter, she was shocked to see her father sitting in the living room waiting for her to come home.

"Dad, daddy's tumben is at home at this hour."

"Linda, come. Let's sit here."

Linda, who was still confused, hesitantly approached her father and sat down nearby.

"What's up, huh?"

Suddenly she took something out of her pocket and gave it to Linda's hand.

"What is this, yeah?"

"That's money. Money for your education. Keep it."

Linda then opened the brown envelope and saw a number of red sheets of money.

"But...from whom is this money well? It's pretty much."

"Well...." He let out his breath while looking for an excuse for a moment.

"Dad got it from dad's friend. Don't think too much about it, the important thing is that you focus on learning." He then went to his room.

"But...!" Stood while standing.

"Udah! Get in that room! It's already night. Go to bed so you don't wake up late tomorrow. Ok!"

"Ha, yes."

Then he immediately went to his room with a myriad of questions,

"What wind is this? A wind or a sea breeze? Or the wind? How dad gave me money. Throughout history, ever since Adam and Eve were created on earth even since the dinosaurs were wiped out, my father never gave me money. Has he repented? Or just looking for attention? Where did he get this much money? Did he steal? Or win the lottery? Or deceiving? Hah. I became curious. I want to but scared. Come on, mending this money I keep it well. Who knows, he might change his mind and ask for his money back. Dad is that. His job is to ask for money."
