The String of Destiny

The String of Destiny
Determine the flow of music


One by one, they all came out of the room and sat together in the living room. Both eyelids felt sticky, they fell silent and yawned whenever the opportunity arose.


Usually, Tiara wakes up half four in the morning to do homework. Now, for the first time in his life Tiara woke up at half-ten by noon.


Tamrin stretched her hands up and rubbed her eyes still sleepy. He looked at his three friends still sleepy.


"So sightseeing?" ask Tamrin.


Wulan yawned, she grabbed her cell phone lying on the guest table. He replied, "It's nine and four and five. This afternoon, where are we going?"


Alexander shook his head then said, "Yes, geez. What a promise," Alexander told Wulan.


"Sorry Boss, understand the lack of sleep. After that, if I sleep later my hands and feet are tied again," he said, glancing at Tiara.


Tiara turned her face and said, "All who sleeps like a slender."


"Easy-after. Wulan how about voting? Did you make it?" ask Alex.


Wulan yawned while covering her mouth with her palm. He replied, "Not boss, let me do it now."


Wulan started making questionnaires with her mobile phone. Tiara stood up and headed to the kitchen to prepare a lunch menu followed by Alexander and Tamrin who also went to the kitchen to wash their faces. After washing their faces, the two teenagers played a play station.


Wulan just finished making the questionnaire, went following Tiara to the kitchen. He saw Tiara cutting onions.


"What cooking?" ask Wulan.


Tiara while peeling the onions replied, "Fried Rice Black Pepper Chicken."


"May I help you?"


"Sure," said Tiara, sliding the knife and tray over and over, "Please peel and cut the bag, while I prepare the other ingredients."


"Ready," she replied briefly.


Wulan began to help Tiara peel and cut the onions. The two girls helped each other in cooking. Many new things Wulan discovered in cooking.


Tiara's maternal aura feels very strong when guiding and cooking. Thanks to that, she remembered her mother was at home.


Tiara glanced at her best friend looking gloomy and sad. Sauteing Tiara asked, "What is Wulan? Why do you look sad?"


Wulan stood beside her best friend awakened from her daydream. She smiled and replied, "I remember my mother at home. Every day, my mother would cook and clean the house by herself. I rarely helped her, once I cleaned the room because I was told to. Seeing you sometimes makes me think that I'm a failed girl."


Tiara as she sauteed said, "That's not true Wulan, you just need to change a habit just that. After all, there was no such thing as a failed girl. All living beings are born to learn. I'm sure your mother didn't call you a failed girl."


Wulan let out a deep breath and said, "Changing habits is very difficult."


"Indeed, but if not now when else? Slow down Wulan, starting from the smallest things like cleaning the room for example. At least, by cleaning the room you can help your mother a little and take care of yourself."


Wulan smiled and replied, "Later try. If there's anything troublesome, please help me."


Tiara smiled then replied, "Definitely Wulan!"


After cooking, the two girls brought dishes and a container of fried rice. Alexander and Tamrin were playing the play station, smelling the aroma of fried rice. The two men looked at the origin of the smell.


Tiara placed the container on the floor and said, "Lunch is ready for the kids!"


"Feed!" alexander and Tamrin.


Wulan placed the plate and spoon on the floor. He said, "Where is the man, instead of helping the game," Wulan told Alexander and Tamrin.


"Gue help!" tamrin.


Wulan put a serving of fried rice into the dish. He turned to Tamrin and asked, "Huh?! Help what?"


"Building prayers!" reply whinyesan.


The three of them cheered Tamrin, but Tamrin responded with a laugh and grimace without guilt.


"I don't want to know, just finish eating you guys who wash everything" Tiara told Alexander and Tamrin.


"Ready," answered the two of them.


The lunch menu was ready, they all started to enjoy lunch together. The image tasted delicious, making them all eat very voraciously.


Tiara flicked her finger, and a wooden bottle of milk appeared.


Tamrin so enjoyed the fried rice in her mouth. While chewing he said, "I swear this is the best fried rice I've ever eaten!"


Wulan patted her chest while saying, "Who used to cook dong!" he said bragging.


"Ah, what a lie!" tamrin.


"But this is very delicious, even though the spices and cooking methods are ordinary. What's the secret, actually?" ask Wulan.


"I'm just adding love" Tiara replied.


The three of them did not understand and asked, "Love?"


"Love is a sincere feeling of sincerity. If we do it with earnestness and sincerity, then the result of any work will be the maximum" he explained to them.


"That bet, like you're courting the same Vespa butut elu motor," Wulan told Tamrin.


"There's a lot of glass here, can I get one of them? Oh yes, you're dating a cell phone" replied Tamrin.


Alexander laughed and said, "Yes, let me cosplay as a cell phone" Alexander joked to Wulan.


Instantly Tiara became sullen and she said, "Good, you don't need to eat dinner."


Wulan laughed and said, "Boss, you kasian. Nice Mistress Boss, cas many mobile phones at home. Colokin a Mrs Bos, count food-saving."


"Don't do it, I'm just kidding. What if I go hungry?" alexander said, pleading for mercy.


"Just drink a lot, later also the hunger is gone," replied Tiara turned her face away.


Alexander crawled closer and clasped his hands together and said, "Don't be, I'm just kidding baby."


"Hayo loh, Tiara cantaloupe hayo," said Wulan and Tamrin alternately.


Tiara turned to Alex, the girl held back laughter at the look on Alex's face as she felt guilty. Then the girl said, "Relax, I was just kidding. I'm jealous of something like that?"


"Thank God, I thought you were angry. By the way Wulan, how's the angel? Made it?" he then asked Wulan.


"Already Boss, let me send it to the group. The rest, you share all your social media posts," Wulan said.


"Ready," answered the three of them.


All of them, share questionnaires on all social media sites they have. Not a minute yet, the questionnaire they shared began to fill up.


The total number of questionnaires had been filled reached five hundred votes. After nearly six hundred votes, they closed the vote. All of them, looked at the total number of votes they got.


Tamrin looked at the mobile phone screen and read the voting results. "Pop first, Dangdut second, Rock third. I'm skipping, huh? Jazz last order.


"Among the Pop genre, Korean Pop is most popular in the present times especially the girls," Wulan said.


"Gue knows! If you don't get this song wrong, you know me so well!" tamrin said with excitement.


"It's not Korean Pop, but Indonesian Pop is still local" Alexander told Tamrin.


Wulan smiled she remembered the heyday of the local Boyband. So remember the first grade, "I used to love that song. The searchable fit, it turns out the local Boyband Smash especially Morgan. Their songs are good too. There's still a good Girlband, like Cherrybelle."


Tiara smiled and said, "If I had met you earlier, maybe I would have followed the music trend to this day."


"Don't worry Tiara, relax. I and Wulan are going to show some interesting music" Tamrin said.


"Thanks all of you, then I will do a small interview," Tiara told the three of them.


"What way?" ask Alexander.


"Interviews about the flow of music you like" Tiara replied.


Tiara began interviewing the three of them about the flow of music and the band they liked alternately. The interview has reached a conclusion. First Wulan, she likes rock music and Korean Pop.


One of his favorite bands is Gun and Roses. Both Tamrin, the music he likes is Reggae and Pop.


One of the bands he liked the most was the Seaweed Band. Last is Alexander, he just likes the song he thinks it's good to hear. But among the songs, he really liked the song titled Eye to Heart of the Band Hivi.


"If added from the voting results, the flow of Pop music still dominates," said Tiara.


Tamrin patted both hands and said, "It's been decided! That our musical genre is Pop!"


Alexander folded his hands and said, "The color of Pop music in this country has dimmed. Hopefully our Band, can provide color and cheer like the Band Hivi also other Bands."


"That's not all Boss, hopefully our music is pure and not ruffled by people" Wulan told Alexander.


Alexander let out a deep breath and replied, "Hopefully."


Tiara sat down leaning beside Wulan. He said, "Thank God the kids, we're one step ahead of our band. About the band's name, let's think about it slowly."


"Ready," said the three of them.
