Sometimes Friends are the Enemy

Sometimes Friends are the Enemy
The Part 41


So at night, Joko studied until late at night, memorizing various formulas so that all the formulas seemed to fly over his head to form a circle. Not only that, he was also persistent in doing every practice problem.


Whenever her eyes were hot and heavy, she went to the kitchen, took ice and compressed her eyes and went back to study.


As her stomach rang from being hungry at midnight, she boiled some eggs and ate them. He thought, if he ate rice at midnight, his body weight would increase so as to reduce the beauty of his muscles that he was often proud of.


He ate ten boiled eggs that night so greedily and went back to learning. Different types of books were stacked open on his desk. Sometimes unconsciously his mouth commits while focusing on counting. His determination is so strong to want to win from Tuti and give his victory to Tuti.


At the same time, Tuti, Linda, Betty, and Siti, also studied seriously with their respective styles until midnight.


********


In the morning, Joko leaves earlier than usual to go to school because she wants to continue her private lessons. Not to forget he also prepared provisions, namely ten boiled eggs, a small bowl of rice, and a bowl of green vegetables that he cooked at 5 am. Her father and mother did not wake up. So when the day was bright when his mother was about to prepare breakfast, his mother was shocked to see the egg supply in her refrigerator running out.


"HUH! Where are all the eggs here? What hatched or what?"


"SIR....! YOKO...! Where are all the eggs in this fridge? That's our remaining stock.


Hey... ! The People!"


But her husband is difficult to wake up because the remnants of the nuances of the pleasure of love are still residing in his body. Just last night he got that pleasure from his wife.


So because he did not come, his wife approached him to the room and got angry.


"MA! WHERE ARE ALL THE EGGS IN THE REFRIGERATOR?


Is it okay papa eat everything to be strong marathon until dawn? Huh yeah?"


The man yawned, rubbed his eyes and said, "What the hell is it. Slowly talking about it. Later if Joko hears how? It's shame."


"Since when was papa shameless? Huh huh? Now answer me, where are all the eggs in the fridge?"


"Where papa knows. Papa never takes care of the kitchen. The one who cooks every day is my mom. Another side, is there not? Cook the other side dishes."


"Eh..eh..the mouth is starting to germinate." While frowning he nagged again, "Papa said another side dish? Didn't you hear me say it was the last side dish? Mom hasn't been shopping. And the money is also running low. Papa knows you have to pay for rent, pay for home installments, and car installments. All the money you love must save mama so that everything is enough."


"Ouch.ma...


Very chatty. Buy it again."


The man pulled out his blanket, covered his lower body and got up to pick up his bag and put some money on him in a brown envelope.


"Is this pa?" His wife's forehead shriveled because her suspicions grew.


"That's money. That's papa's commission because papa has won the tender. In it there is also a ring for mama, well.itung-itung as a thank you papa because mama already happyin papa last night."


His wife's cheeks immediately flushed after seeing the amount of money and wearing her ring.


"Thank you pa. I am more in love with Papa. Mom went to the market first and went shopping. Papa immediately take a bath."


*********


At the market, he bought crabs, squid, chicken, and some other types of fresh fish.


Then he processed the crab and squid into a very fragrant and delicious food. After that she called her husband and son to eat. But all that came was her husband.


"Lha! Joko where's pa?" Ask the wife.


"Maybe still in his room. We'll wait a minute, yeah."


But until ten minutes passed Joko did not come.


"Oh... Where is the child?


Joko...


Joko...


"Let's just let papa call you."


The man went to Joko's room. But when the door of his room was opened, Joko was not there.


"Where did the child go?" Mumbled.


Soon he returned to his wife and reported.


"Ma, Joko's not in her room. Maybe she left after mom went to the market."


"Ouch.. ouch. the boy was really naughty. Always miss breakfast. Just be careful if he gets sick, mama pinched his stomach until blue let him kapok."


"Udah, it's ma. Do not keep the emotion. Mom will soon be old. We have breakfast now."


When the hood was opened, it looked like the heavy food was served perfectly on the table, crab soup and fried squid in honey sauce. Instantly also the man was sad and manyun and let out a long sigh.


"Pa. Papa, is that not spirit? Is the food less interesting?"


"Mom, you know you have cholesterol. If you eat all of this, you can get papa cholesterol up and finally stroke. Mama want?"


"God. I was happy, my mom forgot. Mama just wants to eat good because all this time has been appetizing because of installments.


So how's dong pa."


"Yes, papa eat with sambal." Replied annoyed.


The man ended up eating his food with an annoyed look on his face, but not with his wife who was so carefree.


"Mmm.. geez. Because of thinking about installments, mama often eat as is. This time my mother's tongue was dancing.


Yes, papa ration for mama. Ok?"


He ate it voraciously and added to the portion many times.


*********


Before long came a loud belching sound from the mouth of his wife "EGHHHHHh...." So full and satisfied.


As she stroked her distended stomach, she said to her husband,


"Pa, papa go it alone. Mama couldn't bring papa to the door. Mama's belly is heavy, it's hard to walk."


"Yes, yeah. Even if you sleep, sleep here. Gerrymandering annoyed.


But regardless of her husband's annoyance, she replied casually, "His power is yes. Because my mom is so sleepy. Yes, if you go do not forget to close the door. Mama's going to sleep."


"Yes. Aye." Yeah." The man replied upset and left after the wife began to sleep.


***********


As for the school, the place for the race has begun to be arranged and prepared in such a way. The children who participated in the race began to look tense and hope to win each other.


In class, Joko refrains from teasing Tuti, who is busy studying, as she promised.


While glancing at Tuti from his chair, Joko made up her mind again, "May you succeed in my bidad. But I want to be more successful than you so I can prove my sincerity."


Then he opened his book and began to read it in his heart.


But without her knowing it, Tuti sometimes stole a glance at her. Sometimes he watched her for a long time, not knowing what she thought of him.
