TINI SUKETI
133. Evi Graduation

Whatever happens to a human being, good or bad, life goes on.

For a long time, wealth has never been a benchmark of happiness. However, actually in life, all humans have dreams that want to be realized.

As Tini once said, “Harta is not everything, but if you can have a lot, why not?”

The rupiah capital went to a very small city, but the intention was quite large. He wanted to change the fate of his brothers. The fate of his brothers, not his fate.

And without Tini ever thinking, God always gives a reward, for anyone who does good, without a single speck of selflessness in it.

Tini is always seen as strange, but never think of others as strange. Every time people heard him say something strange, the answer was quite simple. “Praying only may your life not be as weird as my life.”

One thing is certain about the principle of Tini's life. He never blamed anyone for anything bad that happened to him.

Before parting after dinner together, Tini told her friends. “Good people tell me happiness. The wrong people taught me a lesson. The best people cherish me fond memories.”

Robin moved a week later. The woman was happy with her greatest achievement. Not only did she have a home, but she also met her husband every day. Cooking food and serving it to Mr. Robin.

After years of living apart to make a living for the family, Mr. Robin is finally proud. Able to provide simple shelter to his small family.

And the next week, Tini called Evi to ask about the girl's graduation.

“You, really, no ngabarin? Kan, graduation next week. Who is with you?” ask Tini.

“I fever. So, a lot of sleep,” said Evi across the phone.

“Demam but very quick answer the phone,” said Tini.

“I have a fever, Ma'am. Not a comma,” reply Evi.

“Oh, yes also.” Tini nodded even though Evi did not see her. “So, who comes?”

“I want all my family present. Although not able to enter all because of limited invitation, but I want us to eat together family. Dayat Bapak nginep deket kos-kosanku. You are the same Mas Wibi came, yes. Kan, not far,” said Evi.

“Front Saturday, huh? Yo uwis, Friday afternoon hopefully I'm the same Mas Wibi has left.”

The conversation ended and Tini immediately circled the date on her desk calendar. That afternoon, he came home from work to be picked up by Wibi.

“Next week we come to Evi's graduation, yes, Mas. Can it? I promised Evi. We don't have to go in. Let me same Father Dayat. The important thing we come to family photos and lunch together,” explained Tini while in the car.

“Oh, yes. Evi's graduation, huh? What are we packing?” Wibi asked back.

“Means can, huh? Friday afternoon we leave immediately,” firmly Tini once again. Wibi agreed.

"What's Evi's gift?" ask Wibi again.

"What gift? I didn't even think about doing anything" Tini said.

"As far as you. Graduation gift for Evi. I'll handle the money later" said Wibi.

Friday afternoon did not seem to come so soon. Tini's busy work at the office and Wibi who started to operate his new office officially, swallowed a lot of their time.

The newlyweds, too, left in a hurry. Almost midnight they arrived at the hotel and both were exhausted.

Ringtone remixed Radja song sounds jerking the atmosphere of the morning is still dark. Tini groped her phone on the nightstand and her eyes half-painted looking at the screen.

“What time is it?” ask Wibi to wake up.

“Four hours,” Tini said with a raucous voice, while sliding the call receive button.

“Halo? Iya—iya. Anyway, if you leave the room, I am the same Mas Wibi already there,” said Tini.

“Depart what time?” wibi asked, hugging Tini with her legs and hands like a roll.

“Evi asked, we are eleven noon to the campus,” replied Tini, put the phone back. “I made rich bolsters,” muttered Tini, pinched slowly Wibi's chest and then hid her face.

“Cold, Tin. I have this eruption,” said Wibi, chuckling.

“Ngledek continues,” reply Tini, pinch Wibi belly plan. The man laughed even more.

“No kissing. Morning-morning smell of sugeng,” reply Tini.

Wibi chuckles. “Then I messed around here first,” said Wibi, lifting the canal-shaped pajamas Tini wore.

“Hopefully next month I'm done, yes, Mas.” Tini looked at Wibi who had sagged to her chest.

“He’eh,” replied Wibi then concentrate the concentration. Before long came the sound of lips clucking and wet.

The morning atmosphere in the hotel room occupied by Tini and her husband was surrounded with soft and moaning rustic sounds. The romance is always accompanied by the accompaniment of hope to soon get offspring.

As Tini promised Evi, at eleven o'clock in the afternoon, the couple arrived at Evi's campus. Tini didn't get out of the car until Dayat called her.

“Mbak, where are you? To the side building. We were all outside the building. Ma'am Evi said to come here, let us cheap family photos.” Dayat then pocketed his phone and hugged the shoulder of Mr. Joko who was looking around.

“No feeling Evi has graduated,” murmured Pak Joko.

“Father does not feel, Mbak Tini certainly feels,” sahut Dayat follow looking around.

“Hey ... Evi .. congratulations, yes, Beib. Success continues,” exclaimed a newly arrived woman, then shook Evi's hand and kissed her left and right cheeks. The woman also wears a toga.

“Who is it, Ma'am?” ask Dayat.

“MyUns. Wh why? Beautiful?” evi asked, looking at Dayat.

“Not about that. I just analyze his words. ‘Success continues, yes.’ Though successful once not,” said Dayat.

PLAQUES

The new Tini came directly patting Dayat's arm. “Sama Mbaknya not polite!”

Dayat was surprised and looked at his brother. “Sick. I was joking though,” said Dayat, frowning.

Wibi laughed at the small commotion, then quickly shook the hands of the father-in-law. Tini also put the back of Mr. Joko's hand on his forehead.

"Gift for you, Vi. From both of us." Tini thrusts a small baldu box at Evi.

A moment later, Evi's eyes sparkled as she looked at the contents of the box. He was given a small gold bracelet bearing his name.

"Beauty, Ma'am." Evi lifted her bracelet. "Makasi, Mas Wibi. Makasi, Ma'am," said Evi.

"I helped makein to you, Ma'am. That priceless gift from me, yes, this. Attention and affection" Dayat explained. He put a gold bracelet given by Tini into Evi's hand.

“Come, we have a photo. That's my name on a flower board. Photos here are cheap. It does not feel complete if you do not see our photos are on display here.” Evi pointed to the board where dozens of photos of graduates whose photos had been completed.

The photo session happened several times. After taking a picture, they had to wait a while for the results. The three brothers were accompanied by Wibi and Pak Joko again engaged in absurd talks.

“What's day?” tini asked Dayat who looked all over from where he stood.

“From something to buy,” says Dayat.

“No one sells snails or cuupang fish here. It's a student graduation. Not a child of TK,” said Tini.

Dayat grunts. “Udah finished the photo, Ma'am? I'm laper,” Dayat said, looking at Evi while rubbing her stomach.

“Udah, nih. Yuk, go eat.” Evi held onto the photo sheet she was looking at. Tini and Dayat also took the photo directly from Evi's hand.

“Wear batik gini, I've been like a young office, yes.” Dayat glimmers looking at his own photo.

“We are indeed a compatible couple,” muttered Tini who also looked at her photo and Wibi.

“Toganya fits perfectly on my body. So the kebaya I wear is not completely drowned because of toga. It turns out I'm beautiful,” said Evi, wiping her picture.

“Try here, I also want to see a photo of Mr.” said Mr. Joko.

“Sama, kok,” answered his children almost simultaneously, without turning his head. Wibi grimaced, then hugged Pak Joko's shoulder and invited his father-in-law to go first.
