Incoming message on Kia's phone from Andra.

"Ki, are you asleep?"

"Kiaaaaaa?"

"Kiarabaaa?"

Looks like Andra really has no job. Even free time before going to bed he used to disturb his cousin.

"Ck. He's been replying to my message for a long time."

"Andra." That's Leela's mommy. Andra, who had been lying down, turned around.

"Mom?"

Leela sat down next to her son and let out a long sigh.

Andra had already memorized her maternal attitude when she had let out a long sigh beside herself. "Mam, I'm sorry about earlier, I was real ...."

"You're really happy if you make your grandfather or papa rise in blood."

Andra put her head in the lap of the mother. Her younger siblings were not around so she took the time to indulge in her mama.

"Mam, I'm really scared of mommy. Why the hell papi should give adek again with me. Now my opponent is not only papi but my three sisters as well."

Leela's hand rubbed the child's hair. "Yes when you still want to spoil on mami. You are not ashamed if later you have a girlfriend and they know you still like spoiled same mommy. You will be laughed at by them."

"Wait-wait, Mi. How did my mom tell me they were, how many of my girlfriends?" kekeh Andra re-establishes the body.

"Loh, I asked my mom who is doing it." The mother and son both laughed. "Are you serious about your wedding plans?"

Andra looks shy.

"Want to get married soon? Is there a candidate?"

"No mam yet" kekeh Andra, "eh mam. If the same marriage of cousins can not yes?"

Leela squinted her eyes. Don't tell me that Andra has any intention of marrying Kia.

"No, Mam. His Kia is still High School."

"Well, my mom hasn't said anything yet."

"Mamiiiii!" Andra was ashamed of herself.

Leela left her son in shame. The woman chose to meet her husband who was waiting in the room.

"What's so exciting about smiling yourself?" bimo asked his wife to sit on his lap. "Tell me what makes you smile and not share with me."

"Your son, he is not much different from you. Fancied someone but the prestige admitted. It's just that being in love sometimes unknowingly admits."

***

Since her brief conversation with Leela, Andra has been showing more and more attention to Kia. Pick him up at school or take him for a walk at night for fresh air.

Andra does suck at admitting feelings.

"Where are we going, brother?" ask Kia when the car runs towards the house instead of heading home. He opened google maps and it turns out that the car driven by Andra is on the jakarta-Bandung line. "We're going to Bandung?"

"Maybe."

"Oh Brother Andra nyebelin, brother I have not told you the same mama. Mom thought I was being kidnapped."

"The one who kidnapped me is also me, the most we're married to."

"Hey I'm still a high school boy, I don't want to be married to Andra."

"Loh why? I'm no less handsome than your Korean idol guy."

The car stopped at a tourist spot. Andra opened the door for Kia.

They were looking for a comfortable seat to talk.

Not far from their seats were a group of young men whose age was not far from Andra.

Kia thought that they had come here because Andra was chasing one of the girls in the group. Evidently Andra glanced there more often.

With confidence Kia approached the girl who had been staring at Andra. He soon returned and handed him a paper with a phone number.

"Sister Andra invited me here because he wanted to be the same woman, right? Brother Andra this is a suck."

"Ok, because you understood without me asking, now you are free to do anything" Andra said.

"Really?"

Andra nodded in confirming. His footsteps continued to move following Kia's footsteps. Some of Kia's snacks are in Andra's hands.

Satisfied around the city of Bandung they choose to go home. On the way Kia slept due to exhaustion.

When he arrived home, Andra did not have the heart to wake him. The next thing that happened was Andra carrying Kia's body into the guest room. Put him to bed there.

When out of the room, Andra's ears were directly in the jewel by her mother. "Start brave yes bring girls people run away carelessly," said Leela.

"For instance, Mi, geez. Aw .. aw pain, Mi, pain." Andra rubbed her ears when she was taken off by her mom.

"Sit Andra!" titah Bimo's. "Where did you bring the girl without permission? You know her parents were worried. We've all called you but no calls have been answered."

"Sorry, Pi."

Bimo only sighed in the manner of his son and nephew.

Besides being judged by Leela and Bimo now Andra has to deal with Kia's parents.

"Sorry, um, aunt."

"You almost made us die standing, Andra," said Shepa.

"No, Yang" whispered Arga.

"Shut up," Shepa glared at her husband. "Other times if you want to take Kia away don't forget to give us news."

"Yes, Kia is a girl. If anything happens, we know who to take responsibility for." Arga added his wife's words.

***

Kia laughed and found Andra's limp face because she was scolded by her parents as well as Kia's parents.

"Mistake it yourself, sister, play kidnap girls people," kekeh Kia without guilt. The girl had already changed into a casual dress. Today is a holiday because yesterday is the last day to go to school.

"You ah, I'm home."

Kia drove Andra to her car. Before long Andra went outside again and thrust the pocket of snacks they bought yesterday while in Bandung. The cold ones actually.

"Geez I think the snacks are up with Brother Andra." Kia immediately ate the food even though it was cold. "Em, Brother Andra don't go home just yet. I'm angetin this food we'll eat together."

" but Ki ...."

"Udah come along." Kia went into the kitchen to warm the snacks.

They spent the snacks that Kia had picked up.

Since both of them have no activities, they choose to walk. This time Andra did not forget to ask Shepa for permission to take Kia on the road.

"Don't be too late home, yes" Shepa's message that Andra replied in a manner of respect.

"But how late?" ask Kia.

"Tells?" asked Andra and Shepa, compact and staring at each other.

A scary word for parents who have a girl.
