The morning greeted. Ayana has finished cooking and is also wearing a school uniform. Breakfast menu is also available. There is capcay, butter chicken, tempeh, tofu, potato paste, and also corn paste. Not to forget Dimas' favorite shrimp crackers.
"Waahh. You cook this alone, Ay?"asked Diky who seemed to swallow when he saw the menu presented various and appetizing.
"So I helped sister," said Ayana with a bright smile.
"The gate also helped, Ay," said Toyib who hurried to sit down.
Hearing Toyib's words, everyone stared at Toyib.
"Yes, did you help Ayana? Not sure about me" said Diky, squinting one eye.
"Must believe, because I helped Ayana through prayer," Toyib said in a relaxed manner.
Hearing Toyib's reply, Ayana only let out a long sigh, while Dimas only smiled faintly as he shook his head slowly.
"If it is, I can too," did Diky throw a rough breath,"You're not tired, Ay, every day cook for us? Not to mention having to clean the house and also school," said Diky who felt amazed by Ayana.
"I didn't do it myself, bang. Bang Toyib used to help me clean up the house. You see if Abang helpin cook, there is my kitchen so the ship broke, "sahut Ayana smiled thinly while shaking her head.
Remembering how Toyib helped her cook. The flour, water, and cooking ingredients Toyib held were definitely splattered. Even Toyib's face was blown away by the flour. Makes Ayana ticklish if she remembers. But Ayana always appreciated the help Toyib gave her.
"But, 'Bat's done Ay, '" said Toyib who was right.
"Yes, yes, I always appreciate your help. Come on, let's have breakfast! I don't want to be late for school, "sahut Ayana who has finished taking rice for the three men.
"Eh, don't you like chicken dishes, Dim?"diky asked when he saw Ayana get him butter chicken for Dimas.
"I can eat dishes from processed chicken meat, if the one who cooks it is Ayana. Because the chicken that Ayana cooks does not smell fishy which makes my stomach nauseous, "sahut Dimas while eating the chicken that his wife just took.
"really? Wahh. You're really great, Ay. Dimas so can eat processed chicken meat because of you," said Diky who saw Dimas who looks ordinary when eating chicken meat taken by Ayana.
"I just boiled the chicken, then threw away the boiled water, then just cooked it. That way, the chicken will not smell fishy, "sahut Ayana.
"You're really good at cooking, Ay!"praise Diky.
"I can only have a few dishes, bang," said Ayana with a smile.
"Ay, call Diky not brother, dong! Brother, your brother is the only one. Brother does not want to be paired with Diky, "protest Toyib who does feel jealous if Ayana calls Diky Abang.
"Eleeh. It's jealous,"diky sneered while taking the side dish.
"Keep I should call Diky bang what, dong? In this house I will call brother only brother Dimas,"sahut Ayana while taking crackers.
"Whatever, you, Ay! What matters is not your brother. Your brother is just one, that's bang Toyib, "strictly Toyib who has started breakfast.
"Yes already, Babang Diky, aja. Can't you?"ask Ayana.
"Yes, senior,"sahut Diky made Dimas and Ayana smile.
Breakfast interspersed with small talk that seemed warm was finally finished. Dimas takes Ayana to school, then goes to work.
While Toyib directs Diky to clean and clean the house. Since living with Ayana, Toyib has lived a more orderly and clean life. Will not touch breakfast before bathing, do not hang clothes carelessly and throw garbage in place.
Toyib who used to hang clothes carelessly, rarely washed clothes, breakfast before bathing and eating snacks with wrappers scattered no longer exist. Toyib is now a regular and clean living person. And all of that is thanks to Ayana. Ayana always looked at Toyib like her own brother until finally all the bad habits of Toyib disappeared. Toyib loved Ayana very much.
"You haven't got anyone to help you clean the house, Yib?"diky asked while wiping the dishes that had just been washed by Toyib.
"I feel uncomfortable if an outsider comes into this house. The thing is, the one who helped clean up, right, must be a girl. In this house the only girl is Ayana. And Ayana was home in the afternoon. If there are women outside in this house without Ayana, I feel uncomfortable. That's why we ask people to clean the house on Sundays only, when there's Ayana. Make cleaning such as window glass and home yard, "sohut Toyib.
"After I'm done, I'm out for a second, okay?"pamit Diky's.
"Where are you going?"ask Toyib.
"Let's see!"diky said enthusiastically.
After finishing cleaning the house with Toyib, Diky went riding his motorcycle. An hour later, Diky was back with the pick up car. The pick up driver dropped off Diky's groceries and helped Diky bring him into the house.Toyib frowned staring at all the items Diky bought.
"What do you want with all this stuff, brother?"asked Toyib who did not understand the function of the items purchased by Diky.
"We will make Ayana happy by decorating her room and we are safe from erotic sounds that make the body bristling and the brain traveling. We're gonna make this love-drunk man's room soundproof. So that we can sleep soundly and do not need to donate blood under the guava tree in front of the house again" said Diky enthusiastically.
"Wahh.a good idea. Come on, I'll help! The money you spent to buy all these tools, split the two with me" Toyib said enthusiastically.
"OKAY. Sip!"diky.
The two men began working inside Ayana and Dimas' room, installing acoustic foam panels on the walls. Closing the door gap by attaching weatherstripping made of rubber to the bottom of the door. Hanging cloud acoustic foam on the ceiling of the room to eliminate echoes and absorb sound. Covering the wall with rubber mat, and also installing soundproof curtains. Anything that can make the room soundproof is bought and applied Diky in the room Dimas and Ayana.
Diky who is a detective can quickly find out what Ayana likes and dislikes from her observations and also from the information provided by Toyib. And as an old friend Dimas also knows what he likes and does not like Dimas. So Diky sure, if Ayana and Dimas will like the new appearance in their room.
"Waahh. This room is more aesthetic. Ayana will definitely be happy to see it," Toyib said, satisfied with his work with Diky.
"I'm done this has to go, Yib," said Diky who saw the time had shown twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
"me too. Let's have lunch first! Ayana had already prepared the meal for our lunch, "sahut Toyib.
Eventually the two men cleaned up, then had lunch. Not long after that, they went to work.
