Wagering
The Lemonade Date

Fabian thinks Blue will take him to another club that maybe the girl visits more often. Apparently, he was wrong. The girl took him to a catfish pecel shop on the side of the road near the campus. The pecel catfish stall was not too crowded, probably because it had rained and people became reluctant to leave the house because of the cold that attacked.

"Why? Don't eat on the side of the road?" blue asked suddenly, making him turn his head.

"No," Fabian said. "Gue's just confused, because you said I wanted to buy Lemonade. And ... there is no Lemonade here, I guess?"

"There," without warning, Blue suddenly pulled his arm, dragging him closer to the catfish stall.

Fabian, according to him, resigned when the girl pressed both shoulders to make him sit on a long wooden chair. Next to him, there was a young couple (seeming to be lovers) who immediately stopped their eating activities for a moment because of his presence and Blue who was grouchy.

"Chicken or catfish?" ask Blue.

Fabian turned his eyes away from the young couple, turning towards Blue who was facing the male salesman.

"Chicken," he answered.

"Nasi or ordinary?" ask the girl again.

"Regular,"

Blue nodded his head, then immediately paid his attention to the seller in front.

"Two chickens, yes, Mas. One used a suture rice, the other a plain rice." Blue is starting to order.

"Drink?" between a young girl who stood guard at the stall.

"Regular, Lemonade."

Fabian gawks when the real Blue calls Lemonade. And, even more gawking when the young girl nodded her head with a perfectly developed smile. Then, Fabian saw the young girl earlier darting to prepare the Blue Lemonade's message.

Until when Blue finally took a sitting position beside him, Fabian was still staring at the girl in astonishment.

"Is there really a Lemonade?" tanyakanya.

Blue turned his head, stared for a while then turned his gaze again then nodded.

"Can't you?"

"Could, would. I asked for the menu to be added here." Blue said lightly, while peeking at the phone that in an instant had stolen his focus.

"Gue nanya is serious," Fabian annoyed, as she thought Blue was joking with her. Maybe as a form of revenge because he once told the girl about his homemade lighters.

"Gue is serious. If you don't believe me, ask me the same beautiful." Blue replied with still not taking his eyes off.

"Who is anjir?"

Pausing for a moment from his scrolling activity, Blue turned to Fabian, only to exhale slowly and then cast his gaze towards the young girl who was busy making Lemonade.

"The girl's called Beautiful" explained Blue.

"Sokay know lo!" Fabian grunting. Again, he thought Blue was just talking.

"Oh yes, if you don't believe." Blue fools, then back to his cell phone.

A little while later, the beautiful Blue girl came to them with two Lemonade glasses in her small hands.

Fabian looked at the glasses carefully. From the looks of it, it was indeed the real Lemonade. Didn't know if it tasted the same as Lemonade he used to drink or not.

"Two Lemonades are special for Blue Brother and his girlfriend" said the young girl, glancing at Fabian and smiling faintly.

"He's not my girlfriend." Firmly Blue, a little glared at the young girl who actually chuckled at his words.

"Now it's not, but tomorrow no one will know." Tempt the girl again.

"Not much talk, there help your brother prepare food." Blue wagged his hands in front of the girl's face.

The girl chuckled, then moved back and was about to approach her older brother who was frying chicken. However, his movements came to a halt as Fabian called his name.

"Lo name ... Is it really beautiful?" Fabian asked back.

The girl did not answer immediately, she turned her head for a while towards Blue, then looked back at Fabian and nodded.

"If Brother Blue says my name is Beautiful, it means my name is Beautiful." Then the girl who claimed to be named Beautiful passed from before him, leaving more question marks.

Fabian turned his head, peeking towards Blue as the girl giggled amusedly beside him.

"What's so funny?" tanyakanya.

Blue did not reply, instead innocently began to sip Beautiful artificial Lemonade.

...****************...

Satisfied with eating two servings of chicken rice, Fabian walked back to the motor after paying. Blue she just left it in the stall because the girl was still cool chatting with Beautiful, or whoever was her name.

Fabian sat on a concrete bench near where his bike was parked. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pants pocket, complete with his favorite lighter.

When he managed to pull one cigarette, tucked it into his lips and was about to light a lighter, his eyes caught the figure of Blue walking towards him with steps that looked so light. There was one bag of black crackles in the girl's hand, seemingly swinging forward and backward in rhythm with the steps the girl took.

"Now" Blue thrust the bag upon the girl's arrival before him.

Fabian undoes his intention to light a cigarette, flanking the cigarette on both fingers of the right hand while his left hand outstretched to pick up the plastic Blue thrust.

"What?" tanyakanya.

"One serving of chicken pecel, complete with equal lalapan and esktra sambal." Blue says it while smiling.

"Make?"

"Make lo, lah. It's from the lovely guy, he said he was happy to see you eat that voraciously."

"Stop calls her Beautiful, if in fact her name isn't that." Sewot. He put the bag on the left side of his body, then he instructed Blue to sit in the empty space on the right side.

Blue said, immediately sat down and grabbed a cigarette lying in the empty space between himself and Fabian.

"He's okay I call Beautiful" said Blue, while slipping a cigarette to his lips.

"But he has a name,"

"He doesn't like his name. Bring bad memories, he said." After saying that, Blue grabbed the lighter that was still in Fabian's hands and used it to light a cigarette.

"Gue again persuaded Mas Yogi to take care of the change of his name the Beautiful, mumpung age has not seventeen and has not made KTP." He said, after exhaling cigarette smoke from his mouth.

"How does the data in the school go? Don't you think about getting there?" fabian's cigarette was lit, inhaled slowly and the smoke held a little longer in his throat.

"It's not school, though,"

As Blue said that, Fabian noticed that there was a slick smile line appearing, making him sure there was something bigger than the fact that Indah had dropped out of school.

"School is not a safe place for everyone, and Beautiful is one that is unlucky with its school environment."

"Something happened to her at school?" search Fabian.

Blue nodded, with a glaring gaze far ahead. Cigarettes in between the fingers he let burn little by little without any interest in sucking it again.

"Something terrible, which made it a simple dream for him to graduate school so that he could work for office was dashed for a while." The smile that was initially only faint, is now increasingly visible.

"For a handful of bastard men, that innocent child lost his dream. And, even more rascals because the people involved are not getting any punishment at all." When Blue turned his head and their gazes met, Fabian could feel a mixture of deep anger, sadness and disappointment from the look in the girl's eyes.

That night, Fabian finds another side of a Sabiru. The side that made him want to get closer, and penetrate further into the girl.
