"How many times do you say, if you sell here it has something called security money!"
The sound of someone's clapping made me raise my face. The intention of the heart to enjoy a bowl of chicken porridge should be dissolved, because the mood is deteriorating.
"Dam! It was still early morning with security money. Couldn't if you want to know the time?! Afternoon cake! Look that the new mother also sorted out to open the stall, already disturbed!"
"Seeh who?!" ask one of the two of them in a high tone.
"I work at Radio Rebel. Want what?! Want diviralin all of you? Let your behavior go to the mayor's ears?!" reply without a single fear.
Both of them looked at me with doubtful eyes.
"What wiry? Want dico*lok?!" ask me again while pointing two fingers into my eyes and then towards them.
"Neng Inoxu," reprimanded Mr. Obi to open the fence and look at me in astonishment. The two thugs standing in front of me suddenly misbehaved.
"What's going on?" asked Mr. Obi to look at the three of us in turn.
"Punten Mr. Obi, we both don't know if Teteh is working at the radio office. Hapunten" said one of them looking timidly at Mr. Obi.
"Have you guys gone. Early in the morning was noisy, the windfall would not come closer," said Mr. Obi softly that made them nod their heads in disdain. I pointed two fingers back at my eyes, then at them, before the two of them turned away.
"Neng Inoxu why are you here? It's still dark sky, not even half six" asked Obi in a tone of astonishment.
"You take out the trash," I answered short while sitting on a plastic chair provided by the mother of the chicken porridge seller. Mr. Obi looked at me more and more not understanding.
"So I went out of the house to throw away the garbage when suddenly I thought the chicken porridge here was delicious."
"Oh my God, Neng's panties are still wearing nightgowns, wearing doll slippers as well" he laughed back and stared at my feet. I only use special sandals in the house patterned Marvin The Martian.
"Yes, don't change clothes, sir. Just take the money," I said showing a roll of money in hand.
"Haha! Pregnant mom, huh? There's just his behavior." Mr. Obi's laughter made me smile. The news of my pregnancy has certainly spread. How not, I passed out in the middle of the Rebel Radio crew that was gathering, a few days ago after the road motion event.
"Mom, make porridge for this Neng. Ngidam this is rich," Mr. Obi chuckled.
"Come with you, sir? Breakfast is my same, my money is enough," I said, again showing the money roll in the palm of the hand.
"Thank you, Neng. But I'm sorry, I'm fasting again" he replied.
"It's Thursday, sir?"
"No, it's Wednesday. Mr. David fasts" explained Mr. Obi.
"Oh, fasting a day of fasting, a day of no yes, sir?" tanyaku is embraced by him.
"Mom, the porridge is not in the bowl, is it?" I said suddenly when I saw the mother of the porridge seller preparing a bowl he had just removed from the cart.
"Huh? How's Neng? Keep wanting to be treated to the porridge?" ask him astonished.
"Plastikin only," I replied shortly.
"Oh, would you like to eat in Dalem?" ask him again.
"Ngga too, want to be sucked through plastic. Don't use peanuts, ma'am? The t-spoon is two snippets. Do not be less, if more may be," I explained at length that made Mr. Obi and the mother of the porridge seller laugh.
After my order was completed and receiving the change, I walked into Radio Rebel accompanied by Mr. Obi.
"Neng, would you like to make some sweet tea?" ask when we got to the terrace.
"Think about it, sir, makasi. I drink only water. I'll take it myself" I said as I sat down, then took out the plastic chicken porridge.
"Oh, yes. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call you, huh?"
I nodded, and began to eat the porridge in plastic as soon as Mr. Obi returned to the guard post. The cold air of Bandung was barely felt by me. Netraku looked at the expanse of orange sky, because the sunlight began to shine brightly.
'Fabiayyi Ala Irobbikuma Tukadziban (That is the favor of your Lord which you deny?)' I said in my heart while smiling to myself.
When the porridge was half left, I intended to go to the pantry to pick up a bottle of cold mineral water. While adding ice cubes to the water in the glass, the sound of the bathroom faucet being opened distracted me.
Obviously, there was someone in the bathroom, and obviously it wasn't Mr. Obi. With a tiptoe, I approached a bathroom whose door was closed, and not long heard the sound of water splashing from inside followed by a soft hum.
For a long time I stood in front of the bathroom holding a glass filled with ice water. The humming sound that I thought was false, plus the sound of water from the faucet, somehow made my emotions rise.
I tried to push slowly the bathroom door that turned out to be locked. 'Ish, that style is so demit! To the bathroom just lock it, rich man!' I said in my heart.
By stepping back, I mounted the horses and prepared. In the count of three, with all my strength I kicked the bathroom plastic door until it detached from its hinge and hit the head of the figure who was focusing shampooing. Not only that, I also poured ice water in my hand quickly.
"Yahoo!" a loud shout instantly filled the atmosphere around me, and made me run towards the pantry door to hide.
"Neng Inoxu!" exclaim Mr. Obi from the doorway that connects the back room with the front room. I quickly approached her and whispered, "There's another demon bathing, sir. Singing is not clear. So, I just kick the door."
Obi said something and touched his forehead. "That's Adul Neng. He was here because his mother was forced to be betrothed. You come back here to know Neng Inoxu, maybe surprised. But I'm late."
I looked at Mr. Obi, then turned my gaze towards the bathroom, where the figure of Adul, who I thought was a demon, still howled in pain and called out to Mr. Obi.

I looked at Adul who was sitting in front of me with a sharp look. "Eat him if the bath is diem! Gosah. Where is that fake sound, make sprains!" my words made him look in wonder.
"Ish, Teteh who made Adul Benjol's head. Not asking for help, even getting angry."
"Maap," I said briefly as I squinted my eyes.
Bang Win who was sitting next to me rubbed his forehead many times. "First, you go just say you want to buy porridge. I thought you bought it in the complex park, I thought you bought porridge here. I went around the complex already rich gi*la people know no? Second, you knock on the bathroom door, make Adul Benjol, keep pouring ice water. What else is this Abis?" lirih.
"You have Inoxu Tea! Again pregnant instead of lying at home, even here. How fierce again," complained Adul looking at me.
"Diem! Want me to co*lok?" my reply raised two fingers and pointed them at my eyes, then towards Adul.
"Duh, Bang Win. Si Teteh, pregnant kok barbar gini anyway? What kind of baby is this really the Teteh?" ask Adul on Bang Win who responded with a coil.
"Don't know me either, Dul."
"Patience to Bang Win. There are still nine months left," continued Adul in a desperate tone.
"No problem, Dul. Want Oxu rich how well, I love it," replied Bang Win who immediately made me anxious, and bit his arm hard.
