In a contemporary cafe called Jomblo's cafe a handsome man was looking at a glass containing Thai tea.
"Jigong's favorite drink" he muttered, smiling wryly.
"Where are you now? Four years have passed, your name still remembers." Harsh breaths rang out, he drank Thai tea which he deliberately ordered.
"Why you?" ask Ken.
The cafe is owned by Aska, Ken and Juno. They were in Bandung monitoring the cafe they built.
"By remembering the past" replied Aska.
Longing for someone he calls jigong is always present at dusk. As of this moment, dusk began to reveal itself. The reddish color is already present in the sky of Bandung City.
"Enjoy your turmoil, yes. The cave to the top used to nemenin Juno." Ken patted Aska on the shoulder, and passed away leaving Aska.
The shadow of the woman's face always adorned her head when she had completely thrown off the taste to Riana. Very simple woman, but has a very sweet face. Dear thousand dear, the woman left without leaving a message. When Aska wanted to express her feelings, she moved to school. In fact, Aska was prepared for the consequences if she dated the jigong. Scorned for sure. Aska is a popular student at her school, while the women who Aska likes are just ordinary students more likely to be geeky students in her class. Always the subject of ridicule by his friends, especially friends Aska. Unlike Aska, she saw the woman as pure gold. Just staying polished and divermak a little will definitely be a gem of high value.
"Where are you now?"
Though many beautiful and popular women who approach Aska, but Aska is not an easy man to have.
"Hi Aska!" greet a beautiful woman. Aska turned her head very lazily, and her expression was even flat.
She is Miss, a beautiful model who keeps on approaching Aska. However, Aska repeatedly refused.
"I didn't come here to say anything."
Aska was still unmoved, she did not want to discuss anything with this woman. Ken and Juno were sometimes astonished at Aska. Women as beautiful as Miss can-can Aska reject raw.
"Can I promote your cafe? I guarantee a lot of people will come. The concept of the cafe is also very good for children today." Missing to speak while smiling sweetly towards Aska.
"If you're sincere it's okay. If you help because there's nothing better don't."
The most piercing words Aska said. This is how Aska, her mouth is no sweetness to the woman she considers a parasite. Aska also left Miss alone. He chose to go upstairs, while Ken and Juno shook their heads.
"Worse, the Aska. That pretty girl was rejected" said Ken.
"Aska is a different man. It's up to him, like he knows which is sincere and which is the mode" Juno said.
The day is getting night, entering at eight o'clock the cafe began to be full of young people. Especially now Sunday night. Visitors will travel until they get out.
Aska, Ken and Juno will take to the field because of course the cafe workers will be overwhelmed. The young women were always waiting for the arrival of the three single men. They will be hysterical when Aska, Ken and Juno serve them.
"Geez, that's handsome. Be at home for a long time here," said one of the women when Aska put the drinks ordered.
"Please enjoy, brother."
The women screamed happily when they saw Aska's smile so sweet.
"Melt me."
Aska's eyes squinted as she looked at a man sitting alone at a table next to a window. Aska approached and sat down in front of him. The man was quite snapped too.
Aska had already folded both her hands in front of her chest. Staring sharply at Rifal.
"Raptain you?" sergeant Rifal.
Aska looked at Rifal with a puffed-up look. He stood up his seat and began to advance his body.
"Lu apain Keysha?"
If, already angry and upset Aska will speak rude and disrespectful.
"No business with you" replied Rifal.
Aska was already very furious to hear the answer from Rifal. I want him to punch Rifal in the face.
"Keysha is dear to you!" aska exclaimed with a reddened face.
Aska pulled out her phone, revealing Keysha's weakly lying body with an infusion needle in her hand.
"Lu look at this!" sentak Aska's.
"Keysha knows, all this time you've been back and forth Singapore. Monitoring Keysha from a distance. When Keysha approaches, why do you seem indifferent to him?"
Rifal only fell silent at Aska's words. What Aska said was all true. He can't deny anything.
"You mean what? When at your business friend's reception. Lu says that you don't know Keysha. What do you mean?" Aska has started to growl.
"Because of your words, Keysha is sick. Been treated this week. You must have seen Keysha's condition, too" hardik Aska.
"Don't be a loser. If you still love Keysha, say baby. If you don't better stay. Don't you ever hurt the cave's cousin!"
Aska died a silent Rifal. The last sentence that Rifal uttered deeply pierced his heart.
"If that's what Rifal wants, let's just say we never had any relationship let alone know each other."
Keysha's last words to Rifal at the wedding reception of Rifal's business partner and Kano.
For almost two years, Rifal had been going to Singapore to ensure Keysha's condition. However, he did not have the guts to go to Keysha. Too awkward especially Keysha's friends are young. Different from her adult self.
"I'm sorry, Keysha," said Rifal.
The next morning, Rifal came to Jomblo's cafe again. He wants to meet Aska. Aska's the one who knows how Keysha.
"There's something you're looking for down below" Juno told Aska.
"Who?"
"Cowok" Juno replied.
Aska who was checking the cafe's finances had to get up and meet the person. He let out a rough sigh when he saw Rifal who was already sitting sweetly.
"Well, did you come here again?" The question of which there was no tenderness came out of Aska's mouth.
"Gua wants to talk about Keysha."
Aska smiled obliquely at Rifal's words.
"Don't you ask the cave? The real man has to find out for himself" Aska replied.
"Cave please, Ka. Gua knows you're closest to Keysha. You also must know all about Keysha."
Aska stared lazily towards Rifal. However, he also thought of the message Keysha sent him last night.
First of all, I fell in love, but I had to get hurt this deep.
"You want what now?" ask Aska who has pulled the chair for her to sit on.
"The cave still loves Keysha, but. The age of the cave is the same he was far adrift. Is she not ashamed to have a girlfriend and a cave kayak companion?" Rifal is now looking down.
"His "lu is too insecure as yourself. You should have been confident. Let people say this and that. Lu the wayin, they're just on duty commentin. Why should I be horrified?"
"Ran cave equals you. I'm old enough, but still stupid," said Aska.
This time Rifal will not dispute all Aska's remarks. Not without reason, what Aska said is true. He was too stupid about this and because of his stupidity he hurt the woman he loved.
"Now what should the cave lacquer?" ask Rifal.
"Lu ask yourself. You sure don't feel the same way. If not sure mending lupain only. Instead of later Keysha is hurt again because of your stupidity," Aska explained.
Aska laughed at Rifal's words. He shook his head in disbelief.
"If you are a true love fighter, you will not feel defeated before competing. If you love and love Keysha, you prove it. Lu broke the hearts of Keysha's parents. Not just back off and be a loser. It wasn't the time of the kayak" Aska explained.
Aska pulled out her phone. He gave Keysha's mobile number to Rifal.
"Lu dial this number," said Aska.
Rifal entered the number Aska gave to his cell phone contact. He just looked at the number without doing anything.
"As far as you are now mah. Call him or not. Enough cave help up here. Don't let you regret it."
Aska died Rifal who was pensive looking at the screen of his phone.
Anxiety still filled Rifal's heart. Either contact or not. His ego was still high and there was a trace of fear in his heart. Fear of being ignored and rejected by Keysha.
"Love can make smart people stupid" Aska murmured as he shook his head.
Aska arrived home at exactly ten in the evening. Where the state of the house is dark because the occupants of the house are already asleep. Aska lay her body on a very soft mattress.
Thank you, Brother. Rifal's brother has contacted Key again.
A smile curvature was engraved on Aska's face. There was relief in his heart. Aska's room door opened making Aksa's gaze fixed on the door of her room.
"Where's your cafe?" The Daddy went into his room.
Aska who had originally laid down her body, now straightened her seat while leaning on the head of the bed.
"Lumayan is growing, Dad. It seems that in the near future it will open a branch in Jakarta," said Aska.
"Well, cool dong," praised Gio.
"Nothing yet, Dad. The plan is next month to look for a place first."
Gio approached Aska and sat down by the bed.
"What can Daddy help you with?" Aska smiled, then shook her head.
"Just help prayer, Dad. Adek wants to fight with Adek's own sweat." Gio patted the youngest son's shoulder. He was very proud of Aska's persistence.
The capital that Aska used to build Jomblo's cafe was the savings from the pocket money that Gio and Ayanda gave during Aska school. Without Gio and Ayanda knowing, Aska has tremendous savings. Able to set up a cafe with his friends. Ever and often fails, but Aska does not retreat and give up.
"Why don't you want to be like Brother?" ask Gio curiously.
"For now Adek does not want to. One day, Adek will definitely help Brother in the company."
Gio smiled at Aska's words. Both of her children have very different traits even though their faces are the same. Aksa is required to be perfect, while Aska just wants to live his youth like a young man in general. Without, linger.
In the morning, the dining table at Gio's house was filled with three people. The arrival of Echa makes Ayanda and Gio smile.
"So, can you help Brother? Eleven o'clock pick up the triplets at school."
Aska who was chewing fried rice has not answered the request of her brother.
"Can ya, Deck. Brother has a meeting to Bekasi. Dad and Om Arya again to Bandung. Baba the triplets have an important meeting."
"Yes, but there is a reward, yes," replied Aska.
"Yes, just calm down."
Ayanda and Gio always feel warmth when their children are able to help their other siblings.
"Where are Papah's three grandchildren?" ask Gio.
"It's gone with Radit, Pah. It's in the same direction."
Echa said goodbye and did not forget to kiss the hands of mamah and Papah.
"Sir, don't forget to pick her up eleven."
"Yes" answered Aska.
Today Aska has no courses. He prefers to stay at home. At half-eleven hours, he was ready with casual clothes and also a mask to pick up his three nephews.
There, many parents of disciples were waiting for their children. The appearance of the mothers made Aska shake her head.
"Well, what school do you want?" aska gumam.
He looked at his three nephews who walked hand in hand. Aska's smile expanded, a second later Aska's eyes widened when he saw a boy pushing his three nephews to the ground. Aska immediately ran over to the triplets who were already crying from seeing the blood on their legs.
"Zinc!" taunting the boy.
Aska was furious to see the bully boy who had harmed his three nephews. Aska's hand had twisted the boy's ear until he groaned in pain and cried.
"Still a little Badung very badung you. How is the gedenya," growled Aska.
A mother carrying a branded bag approached Aska and forced Aska's hand to stick in her son's ear.
"Gapain you are my son's ear jewer-jewer" the mother said.
"You should think, there must be nothing if I reach out your child's ears" Aska replied.
Aska helped her three nephews stand up. Blood was already dripping on their feet.
"It hurts, Om."
"We treat, yes." Aska took her three nephews into the car and ignored the rude remarks the mother made.
In the car there is always a P3K tool. Aska cleaned the wound on the foot of his three nephews painstakingly. Then, attach the plaster to the wound that is already clean.
"Beres" said Aska.
Aska tidying P3K box. Then I want to start the car. However, the knock on the window glass made him turn his head. Aska lowered her car's glass.
"You want what else? Want to get some compensation? It should be me who asked for compensation to you because your son has harmed my three nephews" Aska grumbled.
"I'm sorry my son. My son is bad."
Aska snorted in annoyance, she stared dejectedly at the song-faced puffed up boy.
"I apologize to the triplets" Aska said to the triplets' nemesis, Choki.
"No way!" refute Choki.
Aska gets out of her car and hits Choki's forehead hard enough for Choki to complain.
"Basic Patkai!" aska Aska. He doesn't care if there are parents either. After all, his parents would not dare let alone Aska had told him who he was.
"Om, who's Patkai?" Hearing the name made the triplets curious.
Aska opened her smartphone and searched for the name. After it was discovered he gave it to his three nephews.
"It's mah pig" said Aleeya.
"Pilip is the same as Choki-choki."
Aska's three nephews laughed in satisfaction.
