Sunday, 18 december 2022


This morning Kenli had woken up, as early as the previous morning he would wake up first from Ranti.


Dafa had woken up, because Sunday was not school, they were just relaxing at home.


"Daf, papa wants to go to the beach, find some fish!!" Kenli said to Dafa who was playing the phone.


"Can I come?" Ask Dafa.


"No need. Mama's still sleeping, you said to me that papa's mama went to fish on the beach." Kenli.


"Yes!! But I want to come!" Dafa.


"No need!! Mom will be angry! Wait at home to play, before mom and sister wake up!!" Persuade Kenli to Dafa.


Dafa also followed Kenli's words, playing and watching on mobile.


Kenli had been gone since early morning. And now Fanti just woke up from his sleep, his body feels heavy, not good to wake up.

Dafa also followed Kenli's words, playing and watching on mobile.


Kenli had been gone since early morning. And now Fanti just woke up from his sleep, his body feels heavy, not good to wake up.


It's all because of Fanti who couldn't sleep last night, he thought. Last night Fanti was difficult to close his eyes until the clock showed at 03.00 am Fanti had not yet fallen asleep.


"Ma, papa to the beach looking for fish he said!" Say Dafa like Kenli's message to her.


"Hm!" Fanti only cleared his throat as his drowsiness still lingered in his eyes.


Because the day had been noon, with eyes that still felt sad because of lack of sleep, Fanti tried to get up from the mattress with a body that felt weak.


At 10:00 p.m., Kenli returned home from the beach. But he came back with only 10 fingers. Kenli did not keep a fish. Fanti didn't ask Kenli about him going to the beach. The relationship between the two is still tense until this afternoon, there is nothing much to say between them, just the potluck.


It's 01:00 noon but there's only rice in the cooker, no friends to eat it. Finally, Fanti decided to make vegetables. Vegetables as usual in the garden behind the house.


Fanti asked Kesyi to pick vegetables to cook and Kesyi called Dafa to accompany him.


"Thes," call Fanti.


"Yes!"


"Pick vegetables in the garden for us to cook, made coconut milk only." Fanti.


"Yes, what's wrong?" Answer Dafa.


"Come, accompany me to pick up some vegetables in the garden!!" Take Kesyi.


"Hii, are you afraid, this afternoon?" Ketus Dafa's.


"Come, my mother told me. Want to cook!" Kesyi.


Finally Dafa followed Kesyi to the back garden picking vegetables, he also took Riko with them.


Riko is the first child of Vira and Jonatan, which means the same as a nephew to Kesyi and Dafa. But because of the age that is not far away, they are friends like brothers.


Upon Kesyi and Dafa returned from the garden, he immediately cleaned the vegetables and began slicing into small pieces. Fanti who was sleeping Rici immediately went to help Kesyi.


Uncompleted vegetable sliced, suddenly Rici was awake from his sleep. Fanti immediately took Rici who was in bed.


Seeing Rici who had been awake and carried by Fanti, Kenli.directly, took the coconut that was still covered with skin.


Kenli immediately peeled the coconut and shaved it using a manual coconut shave.


Rici has been playing now after Fanti gave him a chance. Fanti soon returned to make seasonings for vegetables that will be cooked.


After Fanti finished cooking it immediately, because the clock that has shown at 13:40, must have been hungry he thought. Finally Fanti cooks quickly so that they bosa immediately this lunch.


And sure enough, when the vegetables cooked Fanti just ripened and transferred to his container, all immediately took a plate to eat no exception also Fanti who immediately scooped rice for himself.


Finished eating due to drowsiness Fanti immediately lay on the bed and closed his eyes for a while. Kenli went into the room and lay down as well.


But Kenli could not sleep, because last night he slept very soundly when the clock was still showing at 20:00. Kenli decided to go to the garden hoeing the grass inside a pea plant that had grown half of the time it would harvest.


After finishing hoeing in the garden, Kenli decided to also replace the wood of the bathroom pole that had rotted. Actually already from a few months ago the pole in the bathroom was about to collapse, maybe today he just got the right time to replace it.


Fanti woke up at 17:00, but his eyes were still very heavy to open. And Fanti was only silent on the bed, even though his eyes were wide open.


Kenli picked up the gas canister, for its contents at the base where the gas was sold. Since then Fanti finished cooking gas has been completely exhausted.


After Kenli returned from buying gas, he also bought fish. Fanti who felt less well decided to put Rici to sleep.


Seeing that, Kenli immediately moved quickly, put up the gas he just bought earlier and cooked the fish because he was hungry.


After finishing cooking Kenli just eat and invite the others except Fanti. Fanti did not mind that, he had memorized it with a cold and stiff Kenli attitude. Their quarrels will end later in bed, that is how it always is between them.


Fanti will eat when he is hungry, but for now his stomach is not good, maybe the influence of him who is sleep deprived last night.


Currently, Kenli, Dafa and Rici had fallen asleep, but not with Fanti and Kesyi. They are busy with their respective work, Kesyi who is making himself not bored and Fanti who is struggling to collect his work even though the results are still long to be obtained, maybe about 3 months away. But according to him let it be, 'will work just steal time, count the money for the Eid al-Fitr holiday later.
