The Enchantment of the Primadona
PSP 31: Advice from Mr. Edi

Morning sunshine, welcome back to Dona from her beautiful dream. Last night he spent time chatting with Gilang for the first time as a couple. For the first time in her life, Dona felt a thump that made her lips always smile. Until the morning when he was about to leave school, Dona's lips could not stop smiling.

"Ouch.... Ouchh.... Happy who has a boyfriend to the extent that his rice in winarin even in smile." Toda Bu Nir at breakfast with Dona and Pak Edi.

"Mother what the hell!" Dona's cheeks are red.

'Since when did you know I was dating?'

Dona glanced at Mr. Edi who was silent while continuing to focus on eating fried rice made by his wife. Dona then began to eat a plate of fried rice in front of him that had not been ignored since. Dona's mind is indeed disturbed by the presence of Gilang.

"Eat first, just think of a girlfriend." Ms. Nir again.

"Khaemmm.... Khemm...." Mr. Edi cleared his throat.

"Why Sir? Drag huh? Wanna drink?" Bu Nir deftly poured water into the glass and gave it to Mr. Edi.

Mr. Edi did not drink the water, but instead continued to eat it until the fried rice on his plate ran out. Then switch to drinking water to the toilet. Then Mr. Edi went out of the house without saying a word. Dona immediately looked at the Mother who also felt astonished by the behavior of Mr. Edi.

"Brother why Mom?"

"Don't know. Maybe his mind is mumbling again. Have finished your breakfast. I'm gonna be 7."

Dona glanced at the clock on the wall, then quickly finished the meal.

After finishing breakfast, Dona said goodbye to Bu Nir and walked out of the house to wait for an invitation from Gilang. However, Mr. Edi is ready with his motorcycle and has hit the helmet. Ms. Nir, who was walking behind Dona as she was preparing to go into the store, approached Mr. Edi.

"Where are you, sir?" Ask Ms. Nir.

"Bad wants to take Dona. This morning I'm the one guarding the stall first."

"Tumbent." Bu Nir looked at Dona who was standing.

"Come on, Son, Mr. interracial. I want this 7 o'clock. You're afraid you're late." Bring Mr. Edi.

'But.....'

Dona walked up to Mr. Edi and climbed on the bike after shaking hands with Ms. Nir. On the bike, Dona tried to contact Gilang.

"Don't play with cell phones on the street. Danger. It can invite evil. Quickly save your phone." Said Mr. Edi who immediately obeyed Dona without a second thought.

Even so, Dona was still thinking about Gilang who would definitely pick her up at home.

"Son. Can you say something?" Ask Mr. Edi.

"Of course, sir." Dona replied briefly.

Mr. Edi was heard breathing slowly.

"Father has told you once, if you do not forbid you to date because you were also young. But, one thing you need to emphasize with. Take good care of yourself, do not be too fooled by the love shown by a man. Do not give too much opportunity to men to freely touch you, even if it is just a touch of the hand let alone to overdo it. Be a classy woman, do not be inedible with persuasion and seduction. You said this because you love me."

Dona was silent, she immediately recalled the incident last night when Gilang grasped her hand and spontaneously tried to kiss her. However, Dona swiftly covered Gilang's lips with his palm.

"It's too fast." Dona said shyly.

"How fast is it? Didn't we do it once. Even if accidentally." Gilang Protest.

'Did you see last night?' thought Dona.

Dona was silent a thousand languages, suddenly he had goosebumps looking at the back of Mr. Edi. Usually, Edi always seemed humorous, but since breakfast, he looked so serious. Highlight his eyes as he looked at Dona like a warning sign.

"Son, that good man, will not touch his woman until the time comes. Until both halal in the eyes of God and the law of the country. Because what? The man, if he can touch, will be addicted. First hand grip, second kiss forehead or cheek. Next this and further that which can even touch up to adultery. As a man, you yourself have experience in such a thing." Edi sounded a little laugh. "You may ask your mother, have you ever done anything strange while dating Mom or not."

Again Dona was silent. He tried to digest everything that Edi said.

"The point is, I just want you to take care of yourself, son. Either way Father and Mother as parents take care of you, we can not be 24 hours with you. As of now, you should go to school. Sometimes you play with your friends. And even if you can hire a bodyguard even to watch over you, if you can't take care of yourself then you can be lazy. Remember one thing, there is a God who is always watching our movements. That's all."

Dona tightened her arms and rested her head on Mr. Edi's back. Edi looked smiling.

"What do you think, Gilang how's that guy?" Ask Dona suddenly.

"As far as you can see, he's a child. But rather tidakilan, tengil and ceplos ceplos. Seen from its appearance. Unlike Nak Aditya who is calm, polite and careful in speaking words. If you can say, Gilang is the same as Billy and Aditya is the same as Raka. But the one that has been close to you is just Gilang and Aditya. I rarely see Nak Raka. While Billy has not been dating Ayu."

"Mother knows a lot. Until Ayu dates Billy you know." Dona was a little surprised.

"Yes how not to know. Ayu if it comes to the house confide in you about Nak Billy. Where does his voice sound clear to the shop in front of the house."

The two laughed together, until Dona finally arrived at school. Dona kissed Mr. Edi's rough hands.

"Thank you, sir, for your advice. I promise I'll take good care of myself. I'm not going to be disappointed with Mom." Dona meant it.

"Destroy everything because you are afraid of God. After that it's only because of your devotion to both parents."

"Ready Sir." Dona saluted Edi who made the man laugh.

Imtaq activities on Friday morning are over. Dona and Ayu walk hand in hand towards the class. From the back, Billy seems to run after Ayu and Dona.

"Darling..." Say hello to Billy.

"Hey..." Ayu replied with blushing cheeks.

"So, it's gone public y'all." Dona Cibir.

"Of course dong. Let my lover not be seduced by others. If I need to put a stamp of ownership on his forehead let everyone know that Ayu belongs to Billy."

"Basic bucin." Again Dona sneered.

"Diihh said it's a sirik." Reply Billy.

"Well, your girlfriend and her mouth are so limp like girls who like gossip. Don't you go out with the same sex."

"Damn." Reply Ayu laughed.

The three then walked into the classroom and prepared to start the lesson.

This morning's subjects they got a history clock. But because there is a meeting discussion of the school exam, Dona's class was only given a task.

"I want to ask you something." Dona said to Ayu who was busy writing.

"What?" Ask Ayu back.

Dona looked back where Billy was sitting and looked focused on writing.

"Have Billy kissed you?" Dona's whisper.

"Hahahhhh!" Ayu slightly shouted, making the entire classroom look at her.

"Why?" Billy asked patting Ayu on the shoulder.

"It's okay." Ayu's reply was awkward.

Ayu glared at Dona who seemed to be holding back a laugh.

"Why is that all of a sudden?" Ayu Whisper.

"You know it." Reply Dona giggles.

"Either." Answer Ayu.

"Seriously? Where is it?" Dona was curious.

"here. Right here. Here, and here." Dona pointed at his forehead, cheeks, lips to his neck alternately.

"What the h*ll..." Dona was very surprised by Ayu's reply.

"Why? Can't believe?" Ayu narrowed her eyes. "Now look." Ayu showed a red mark on her neck that was covered in a shirt collar.

Dona widened her eyes, she could not believe what she saw. Ayu, who is known as a plain girl, was able to go that far with her lover.

"Are you serious? It's really Ayu, right?" Dona shook Ayu's body.

"You why the hell? Yes this is Ayu. Who else."

"But..."

"But why? Because this?" Ayu again pointed at his neck. "Udahlah Don's. We are both big. In courtship it's kind of like this it's been a regular time. You're the one who hasn't reached that stage. You also know what it's like and will be addicted." Ayu giggles.

"No. I'm not gonna be like that." Denying Dona. "Yes, you have to take care of yourself." This time Dona tried to advise Ayu not to fall too far. "Don't let the two of you cross the line that will destroy your own future."

"My dear Dona. Just calm. Both of us will not do the thing in your brain. We both still want to go to college and the others."

'Phyuhhh...' Dona sounded relieved breathing.

"But it's okay to just play kiss doang. You try it." Ayu Goda.

"No." Peek Dona.

Both focus on writing. Occasionally Dona glanced at Ayu. Dona's just completely inexhaustible. Ayu who he knew so innocently turned out to be able to relate to that extent with Billy.

'True Father, if you can not take care of yourself then others will not be able to take care of you.'

Dona can only hope, that he will not do something that crosses the line with Gilang.

'I should be able to take care of myself with restraint.'

Seriate....
