Radio Broadcast Midnight 2
Episode 14

My feet stepped into the pages of Radio Rebel excitedly, after answering Mr. Obi's friendly greeting. Lately, the atmosphere in the office is different, after the unraveling of the mastermind from the burning of the old office of Radio Rebel.

"Tea" I said to Opi Tea and Hani Tea sitting on the terrace.

"Hey Xu, it's already here. It's only eight o'clock, too" replied Teh Hani.

"Yes, Tea. Get home, so come early."

"Sama, Teteh is also good for. At home, here it is. Kaya who is not excited about it," said Teh Opi which I know.

"Still not believing ...," he added. "Teteh at least know the struggle when this radio was built. Hard work Tea Nday with Rebel Tea, Bang Win and Kang Saija. Don't believe that Kang Saija has betrayed her hard work all this time."

Me and Teh Hani just quietly listened.

"Sadly so ...," continued Teh Opi.

"Teh Inoxu, coffee without sugar?" tanya Kokom who suddenly appeared from inside.

"Thank you, Kom. I'm having coffee again" I replied.

"Ih, this Inoxu Tea. If you mules mah go to the toilet or not."

"Duh, Kokom ...," I complained.

"Kokom's hearing equipment is broken, Xu. Because of the same science battle Adul kemaren. We have been communicating many times over. But there is a benefit, Teteh can not see the behavior of the Kokom random," explained Teh Opi.

I grinned and typed something on the phone, then showed it to Kokom. Not long after, the girl nodded in understanding and went back inside.

"Ouch!" teh Hani stared at the gate. The curious Teh Opi and I followed the direction of his gaze.

"Emak the same Mrs Jejen," I said. A tickling feeling entered my heart from seeing the figure of Bu Jejen.

"Assalamualaikum! Yuhuuu, Mommy came with—."

"The danger!" exclaim Bu Jejen cut Mother's words. "There's a crush on Neng, but ben*cong!"

I again grinned to see the confused face of Opi Tea appointed by Bu Jejen. Before long, Teh Opi looked at me fixedly, and smiled back. At first glance, I saw a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"But I love him, Mom!" reply Opi Tea.

"Mom has a way out. Later if Neng meets this jejadian guy, Neng jakunnya. Guaranteed, that's why he'll be a man."

"Then yes?" ask Opi Tea.

"Yes! Practice it, Neng. For Neng's future, let's get married. You see, Neng is also as rich as this Neng. Permanent singles," point Miss Jejen at me.

I squinted my eyes at Bu Jejen and turned to Mother Adul. "Sir, is Adul still sick?"

"Still, Neng. The doctor said he had typhoid. Here, I want to take a doctor's letter, "Mommy replied to me with an envelope, which I quickly received as I looked at Ms. Jejen. He acted like he was laughing. Closing his eyes, he raised his palms in all directions.

While Bu Jejen was doing some sort of exploration, my attention was turned to a car entering the parking lot. Not long after, Kang Krishna came down.

"Hoi, Jeng Merlin," I shouted out loudly.

As I expected, Kang Krishna changed the way she walked like a woman and turned left and right like a model on stage. I held my laughter as hard as I could because of Kang Krisna's flexible movements that were tall and sturdy. No wonder, because until now he has a hobby of mountain climbing and rock climbing.

"How all! Helow bebih," he said giving a long-distance kiss for Opi Tea.

"Neng, this is the man so-the incident who has a crush on Neng?" bu Jejen asked to look at Kang Krishna from top to bottom.

"Hey! Indiscriminate mother speaking! I'm a man, Mom!" reply Kang Krishna glanced cynically. He flicked his long hair that hit Bu Jejen's face.

"Calm, Neng. Let me settle down" he said towards Teh Opi. Suddenly Bu Jejen faced Kang Krishna and touched him right in the sky.

"Heug!"

Me and the others were stunned to see Kang Krishna making a strange sound from his mouth while holding his throat.

"Look at Neng. This jejadian guy, originally taped demit ben*cong. That's why his behavior is so rich, too" explained Ms Jejen, before closing her eyes again and pointing her palm at Kang Krishna.

Kang Krisna herself was silent for only a few moments, before she straightened up and spoke in her original voice. "Who am I?"

"No, Neng! It's normal. His voice was not a rich manye earlier, now mah macho. Very man!" exclaim Bu Jejen joy.

"Who am I? Whoareyou? Who her? Who are we all ...?" kang Krishna.

"Well, Mom. How come it's even rich people who have lost their memories?" I asked still withholding laughter.

"Calm, Neng. It's not over yet" replied Mrs Jejen. He again approached Kang Krishna, having previously picked some flowers from the plants in the pot. "Hey young man! Throw it high above your head."

According to her, Kang Krishna took the flowers in Bu Jejen's hand. Just as he threw the flowers, Bu Jejen's hand pinched Kang Krishna's armpits hard.

"Wadoooo! Amused, ticklish, amused!" kang Krishna was spontaneous.

"Woi off, woi!" yelled Kang Krishna. Until a while later, then Miss Jejen released her hand and made Kang Krishna rest on the floor.

"Awuuuug! Awuuuug! Awuuuuug!" Kang Krishna howled.

"This is a wolf demon!" cetus Mama Aduk.

"No, it's a demon ex-seller awug!" bu Jejen's objection points to Kang Krishna. Unexpectedly, Kang Krishna bit Bu Jejen's hand until the woman gasped.

"Well go home, gaes! This demon is too strong," Bu Jejen asked Mom.

"Neng, Mak said yes. Assalamualaikum," said Mother immediately, and left Bu Jejen whose hand was still bitten by Kang Krishna.

"Deliver!" exclaimed Bu Jejen patted Kang Krisna's forehead strongly and immediately ran after Mother. When the figure of the two was not seen, our laughter all broke until the stomach ache.

"Standby! 3, 2, 1, on water!" remi exclamation raised his thumb.

"Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, Inoxu present from the studio two Story of Midnight Radio Rebel Bandung 12.08 FM. Tonight, just like the previous nights, I will accompany the rest of the listeners all with the stories of the speakers. But before, I will play one song Safira Ha request from Padi with Kasih Tak Until. Stay tuned and don't go anywhere."

I turned off the mic and was confused to choose whether to call the source or read out an email, when my eyes accidentally read the email on behalf of the top Baron. With a thump, I read the contents of the email and became limp instantly. "Innalillahi wa innailaihi rojiun" said I lirih.

"Why, Xu?" ask Gia who saw my change. Since I was still silent, he walked over and read the contents of the email.

"The flower died ...?" tanyanya.

Remi who saw us, immediately got up and walked to my desk. His eyes also widened to see the contents of the email that Baron sent.

"Where's this? Wanna read?" Remi opened his voice after a moment of silence was created.

"Remain, Xu," continued Gia. I exhaled a deep breath before nodding slowly, and getting ready again as the song was about to finish.

"That's Padi with Kasih Tak Until," I said to reopen the broadcast. For some reason, this song feels right for Bunga and Bang Win. Although firmly Bang Win said if he only considers Flowers no more than his friend's sister, Baron. However, from the gesture and the gaze of the Flower, I knew that the girl harbored feelings for my husband.

"Xu!" scolded Gia for seeing me still.

"I'm sorry to all the listeners, I was a bit surprised to receive an email containing sad news from the Baron. This baron was the elder sister of the Flower in Pasirkoja. There may be listeners who still remember, if this Flower was once a resource person in the Story of Midnight. He told me about the kema*tian of some residents around his residence, after an announcement from a nearby mosque. It won't take long, I'll read you an email from the Baron.

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, hello Teh Inoxu and Adul, I am Baron. I am the sister of Bunga di Pasirkoja who was once a source and a big fan of the broadcast of the Story of Midnight.

I came to bring sad news, about the passing of my sister. Just as the old man told us in the Midnight Story about some of our deceased citizens, the same thing happened to the deceased. Two weeks before he died, we heard the announcement of his death in a mosque near our house.

After hearing the announcement, the late house more often locked himself in his room. Several times he said to me, if there was a voice calling his name every morning. I tried to encourage him by saying that it was the work of a prankster. But the more days he got weaker and eventually fell ill, until he died.

For all my friends, friends, or anyone who knows my late home, through this e-mail that I hope to read, I make a big apology for the mistakes made by the late one, whether intentionally or not. And if it pleases, please join his prayer so that the late husnul khatimah. So many emails from me, thank you for Inoxu Tea and Kang Adul who have read. Wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

I took a deep breath before continuing. "That's the email from Baron, the sister of the late Bunga. Me and the whole team from the Story of the Midnight would like to offer their condolences, may the house of the flower husnul khatimah, accepted his Islamic faith, and forgiven all his sins. Aamiins.

One song I will play, as a closing story of Midnight this time, a request from Neng Sih from Sheila on Seven with True Friends and his greetings to Inoxu Tea and Bang Win. Thank you for your greetings, Neng Sih," I replied.

"Finally, Inoxu and the team please leave, wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

I turned off the mic and removed the headphones after hearing the song play.

"Hayu's coming home," Gia and Remi took a pack. We walked out of the studio when I saw the figure of Bang Win standing in front of his room. After Gia and Remi came home, I walked over to her who immediately hugged me tightly.

"Bunga ...," I said.

"Look. I also heard you broadcast," Bang Win replied.

"We're going to the Flower house?" askaku take off the hug.

Bang Win seemed to think for a moment. "Tomorrow we'll go there."

I nodded before we walked outside, towards the parked car with one hand in Bang Win's hoodie pocket.

"The song that you played earlier ...."

"Love Didn't arrive? Why?" manya curious.

"It's almost my national anthem, you're so hard to get caught up in" he replied with a faint smile.

"Haha! Could you," I'll call you.

"Seriously Oxu. I often get really upset in the studio when you broadcast. Abis was listening to that song, so sad anyway."

Bang Win tightened his hand as we stopped walking. "I wonder myself, how much I am like you, that I can be so great."

I looked at him closely with warm eyes, before tiptoeing and lightly kissing his cheek, so that his face became reddish.
