TINI SUKETI
77. Ipar Candidates

Wibisono silently listened to Evi's words until it was over. His head nodded slightly as he understood the girl's words and intentions. After Evi spoke, Tini was busy scratching the edge of her bag with a half-awed look. Dayat raised his head and looked at Wibisono.

"Come on. I'm yo get it. Menowo mbakyu-mu durung cerito mergane iki yo durung suwe. I yo niate is a tenanan. Mbakyumu must Ijeh nganggep nek I iki mung guyon. Your grandmother kabeh iso yo sehyan budhal ning omahku ning Suroboyo. My family's karo acquaintance. Rabbi kuwi is serious about your kango. I yo ora maybe guyon. Piye? Wis ever miss a suroboyo to?" (Yes. I understand. Maybe you guys haven't told me because it hasn't been long. I mean, his intentions are serious. You guys must still think I'm just kidding. If you can, I'll take it to my house in Surabaya. Meet my family. Marriage is a serious thing for me. I can't possibly be kidding. How's it? Have you ever been to Surabaya?)

Wibi did not look at Tini when she asked that question. His gaze shifted between seeing the face of Evi and Dayat alternately. Evi rounded her eyes, but did not say anything. Although Dayat ….

"Derreng Mas. Dereng nate teng Suroboyo.  Teng jakarta mawon nembe. Dereng nate teng puri,mboten wonten wektune, Mas. Teng ndeso is busy." (Yet Not. Never been to Surabaya. Jakarta is also new this time. Never been anywhere, Mom. There is no time. The village is too busy.)

Evi immediately kicked the tip of Dayat sandals that were next to Wibi's feet. But it seems that Evi's movement has been predicted by Dayat. The young man immediately shifted his legs and remained staring at Wibisono with sparkling eyes.

"So busy. Busy opo? Busy fighting montor nang ngarep umae chick po?" (You're busy. Busy what? Busy bike in front of the house girl?)

“Never before, right? Surabaya is a lot of reincarnation places, you know.” Wibi nudged Tini's knee with her knee while chuckling. Tini blushed and murmured silently without a sound at a time.

Dayat and Evi saw things just now. The two brothers also pushed each other and hit each other while chuckling.

Wibisono laughed happily and patted Dayat on the shoulder. That night, Tini was more silent and heard. Seeing how Wibisono tried to establish familiarity with his younger siblings. Responding to Dayat's funny and innocent jokes typical of village youth. As well as answering Evi's spontaneous and straightforward questions.

“Then it's noon tomorrow, Mas pick it up. We're streets. Your kids, right, are still working. So we go for a walk of three. The three of us are really newcomers to this town. Same,” Wibisono said laughing.

“Wah, really. Want, Mas. Streets,” said Dayat, unknowingly patting Wibisono's knee in a familiar style.

Wibisono returned to the hotel at ten o'clock in the evening accompanied by Dayat to the front of the alley. The blank looked lonely as the man bailed. No forehead kiss scenes let alone lip kisses. Wibi said goodbye after holding Tini's hand for a while and massaged Tini's shoulder slowly when she said tomorrow afternoon she would pick him up after office training.

Dayat returns from delivering Wibi to the front of the alley. And he was immediately flabbergasted when he saw the situation of the boarding house when he left to drive Wibi was already quiet gripping, but back crowded when he returned.

Boy, Mak Robin and Asti are back in the plastic chair. Only Robin is invisible because he is asleep.

“I thought I was asleep. Apparently not. Even out all,” said Dayat, approaching the pool of seats.

“You think you're asleep?” tanya Tini, looking at her neighbors. “They could be bomb tamers. Can install silent mode undetected. Even if suddenly quiet and calm, that is the most suspect.”

“I was asleep. Suddenly hungry times my stomach. Meatballs were less shady.” Mak Robin makes the easiest excuse.

“I was peed kebelet, kok,” Asti said anyway.

“Why are you, Boy? The nightmare? Dream of a burnt toast shophouse because your staff forgot the stove?” ask Tini to Boy.

“Amit-amit, Tin!” PLACARDS. Boy patted Tini's knee hard.

“You don't hit me again. I just rubbed my knees. Can I aduin you,” said Tini, rubbing his knee.

“Udah style really now. It used to be pounded also no problem," said Boy.

"Yo, wis. Njenengan kuwi think opo meneh to Mbak? Ojo mikiri kene. I karo Dayat wis ra popo. Dayat yo wis iso mbok. Ndek'e ki wis gede. Njenengan ora need to dedicate ora need nyepakke just any. Ndek'e wis iso njogo awakke dewe, miko kulue Dayat bene I sing ngragati. Rampung kuliah yo bene golek. Genengan ki wis quite Mbak. Njenegan wis telungty. I'm ki mesakke my Mbakyu. Koncone anakke wis do gede. Mestine njengan yo want to." (Yes already. What do you want to think again? Don't think of us continue. Dayat and I are okay. Dayat you can get away. He's an adult. You don't have to shower and shower her. You can sleep well, he can take care of himself out there. Dayat's college later, I'll help. After college I found work. You are enough Ma'am. You are 30 years old. I'm kasian Mama. Your children are already in big2. You must also want to.)

Evi pokes Tini's hand. He wanted clarity about his brother's feelings for Wibi. Tini then went back to silence.

"He'eh, Ma'am. I'm ra popo. I yo want to weruh Mbak Tini kuwi seneng. I'm a rabbi meh, nek mbakyuku young urung rabbi. Mulakno Mbak tini ndang. Mesakke kuwi girls selak kesuwen lek nungoni me.” (Yes, Mother. I'm not okay. I also want to see Mbak Tini seneng. I wouldn't have married if I hadn't been married. That's why Tini Ma'am is hunted. Kasian if the girls wait too long for me.)

Dayat shook Tini's knee. I can't wait for her brother to get married.

“By the way in English, Vi.” Asti grinning dressing poking Evi's knee.

“Yes, betol it. I don't know anything from earlier,” said Mak Robin.

“You don't hear anything, Mak?” ask Tini. He had guessed that all the residents of the boarding house had not been asleep.

“Udah, spit! I want a horr. We invited all our former enemies to the chicken coop. All who have railed and said as good as jidat,” said Boy excited.

“Invited also will not come,” said Tini.

“Important invitation card already nyampe. I will also write a list of songs I will sing. Don't forget our duet songs, Tin.” Boy cheers up his best friend. He realized Tini did not dislike Wibisono. Tini is just inferior and thinks too much about her sisters.

“Wis, Ma'am. I'll talk to you later, Father. I want to bring some fun news from Jakarta. You work quietly. If you want a party in the village, I will take care of it. Give up your sister!” Evi patted his chest.

“Tomorrow to be invited to take a walk with Mas Wibi. I can't wait,” said Dayat.

“Eh, keep wanting to be invited to—”

“Hush! Secret,” prevent Tini, pat Evi's shoulder.

“What, anyway, is still a secret? What's there?” ask Mama Robin.

“Where is it, Mak?” Asti looked at Robin.

“You can see ...” Boy looked at Asti and Mak Robin. The two women looked at him. “Kaaan!” pekik Boy's.

Tini giggled and closed her mouth. He looked at Mak Robin, Asti and Boy at him.

“I guessed it. Definitely not just me,” Sergah Boy.

“Ah! Your secret says! I thought I was special until the secret was only I knew,” upset Mak Robin.

“This is Mbak Tini's attempt to make us all feel as special,” Asti said defending Tini.

“Halah .. secrets. In our house the longest secret lasted only one hour,” continued Dayat.

"Back you up, Tin ...," annoyed Mak Robin. "I'm holding my nose. Tau-tau nozzle he's scattered."

“So how, Vi?” ask Asti again.

“We want to come to Surabaya with Mas Wibi. Just two days. All walks. Doain Mbak Tini, yes, Ma'am, Mak, Mas ...” Asti smiled and couldn't hide her happiness.

"From first I prayed. Like this Wibi, I'm tightening my prayers" said Mak Robin. Boy and Asti nodded in agreement.

In Evi's mind, the girl had already imagined what her brother's party would be like.

“Mbak! Pink uniform, huh? Pink, Ma'am! Apik!” cetus Evi's.

“Obony, Vi. No, Vi …. You don't make me unable to sleep tonight,” said Tini. “I'm thinking of how to talk to my boss.”
