Wibisono came home with a chuckle messing with Tini's hair. The puzzled Evi just nodded her head as the man passed from their room. While Tini immediately dropped himself on the bed that he had been craving since.
Tini rolled around and covered her face with a pillow. He closed his eyes for a moment and re-imagined his kiss with Wibisono which happened a moment ago behind the door.
Then, he recalled the small impact caused by Evi. Tini lifted a pillow from her face. “You're in the room instead of knocking first. Ngagetin me aja,” Tini.
“Ngagetin how? I called but there was no word. The door is not closed. I thought you took a shower and Mas Wibi came home,” Evi said, defending herself.
“Hmmm ...” Tini covered her face with a pillow. He hugged the pillow tightly and closed his eyes again.
“You slept, Ma'am? Not shower yet? There is an air angel. Do not sleep first,” exclaimed Evi from the front of the closet. He was rummaging through his clothes bag.
“I love to shower now. His tracks on my body will be lost. I want shadows again. You took a bath until it was a kisut. Or if you want to sleep in the bathroom is also okay,” replied Tini from behind a pillow.
“What's the matter, anyway? I'm not horrified. Your voice was patted with a pillow,” said Evi.
Tini opened her pillow. “You shower first. Want to sleep all in the bathroom is also okay,” Tini's birthday chuckles.
The beauty of the moment that had just happened behind the door, it was impossible for him to share with Evi. Only one human being could hear his story without astonishment. Just Colored. His heart was already lumpalitan and impatiently wanted to meet his best friend to dredge all the stories until aground and told. Then imagine the speech of Wibisono that promises to be neighbors with Dijah, Tini's heart was increasingly exploding.
Faintly Tini heard the sound of the door closing. Evi has entered the bathroom and Tini immediately dumps her pillow. Tini looked up on her back on the bed. His gaze looked at the ceiling and his hand rubbed his lips slowly. “Reacted Mas-ku is hot! Fortunately we did not get burned and needed the extinguisher spray.” Tini chuckled shut her mouth. “Do all these family events can not be skipped directly to the first night?” Tini pulled back the pillow and covered her face.
“Omaigot, Mass …. Omaigot! What surprise awaits me later?" Tini squealed alone like a madman.
***
True as promised by Wibisono last night. The morning before eight o'clock, the man had already appeared in the hotel lobby. Wibisono is very fresh with her hair slightly wet due to the effect of hair oil. The beige shirt rolled up to the elbow limit combined with jeans. Simple appearance, but managed to make Tini wrong behavior.
Every time he saw Wibisono, he again imagined the face of the man who was closing his eyes. Warm breath Wibisono was as if he was still puffing his nape. Tini shudder. As a result, because of his wooden behavior, Tini did not feel hungry at breakfast. His stomach felt full just by staring at Wibisono many times.
“You sure you're full? What did you eat earlier?” ask Wibi.
“Udah eat a little snack. Indeed no longer appetite,” replied Tini.
They were all surrounding a round table in the restaurant near the lobby. Evi and Dayat eat like they're at a party. Does not take many portions, only a little, but a variety. While Tini just pricked the last piece of melon on a small plate.
“You don't get skinny. Her wedding dress is loose. I don't like it,” whispered Wibisono.
“Have finished eating? We're going, yuk? He said he wanted to see the Heroes Monument up close,” Wibisono said to Evi and Dayat.
Dayat, whose mouth was full, nodded and stood up from his seat. Evi also immediately stood up to attach her bag to her shoulder. Tini looked at Wibi's face. Staring at the man's side features lingered. Picking up the mumpung aji while the man was busy talking to Evi.
Duh, I can't believe that in a moment he can meet that face every morning and night. When you go to sleep and wake up. Tini pursed her lips. At the same time Wibisono looked at his face. Their eyes were full of meaning. I don't know if it has the same or different meaning. What was clear, Tini's gaze grew increasingly shady looking at the man. Wibisono made her feel like a teenage girl. The minimal touch of the man made him even more curious.
“Oalah, I think the Heroes Monument and this Sura and Baya statue are the same.” Dayat who had just seen the symbol of the city of Surabaya laughed chuckling because of his stupidity. “So the Heroes Monument is different again, yes, Mas?” ask Dayat to Wibisono.
“Beda. From here we go to the Heroes Monument. If this is called the symbol of Surabaya. Sura and Baya, sharks and crocodiles,” bright Wibisono.
After a long o-o, Dayat asked to be photographed several times in front of the symbol. And with a shy face, Tini finally wanted to be forced to take pictures while hugged Wibi in front of the monument. And what makes Tini even happier is when Wibi pulled out her phone and asked to be photographed again.
“Tugu Pahlawan is far from here? Many monuments and monuments, yes ..” said Dayat.
They passed from the statues of Sura and Baya. Go straight to the Heroes Monument.
“Many monuments and monuments ...,” murmured Dayat while in the car. He then snapped his finger in front of Evi's face. “Now I understand why Surabaya is called the City of Heroes. This must have been related to the great war against the invaders. Because it's also the day the hero is set ten November.” Dayat rattled as if he had just discovered a great discovery in his life.
“You said that, fortunately your history teacher is not horrified. If you take Denger, you can resign your teacher.” Tini said casually from the front seat. Wibisono laughed and instantly swept Tini's head.
“Wih—wih—wih …. The tuunya looks like Monas, yes. Almost similar,” screeched Evi as they arrived at the Heroes Monument court.
Dayat was no less enthusiastic. He took Evi closer. The head of the brother and sister looked up to the maximum to see the top of the monument. They're flabbergasted. In just a few days of going to the city, they saw many new things that they had never seen.
The heat of the sun that hit did not dampen the curiosity of the brothers. Tini was actually curious as well. But the presence of Wibisono next to him is able to dampen his behavior which may be more magical than his younger siblings.
Evi is seen holding Dayat's arm. Tini and Wibisono walked up to them. From a short distance, Tini saw his younger siblings were already bathed in sweat.
“Dayat less snot aja. If Dayat has his snot, you two already look like Temon and his grandmother who just saw Monas.” Tini patted the shoulders of her two younger siblings.
