Kapitel 49: Grateful With Happiness
Exactly at 9 pm, El came home from Nusa's house with Reza and of course Mario. But the three of them had different paths, so now he was alone in his yard. Because usually, his two friends follow him wherever he goes, but not tonight.
He had taken a clean bath at Nusa's house, wearing Rehan's clothes because he couldn't stand his sticky body, as did Reza and Mario.
El adjusted the bag slung over his shoulder, then started walking into the house with the door wide open. He greeted him as he entered the house, and he could see Alvira carrying a tote bag in each hand.
"Where have you been, Alvira?" He asked her happily smiling sister, who had just landed his ass on the living room couch.
Hearing that, Alvira immediately looked at El with enthusiasm. "Look, I just finished shopping. And Daddy gave me pocket money," she said, lifting several tote bags in the air, showing her brother what she had bought.
El raised one eyebrow. "On what occasion?" He asked. He knew very well that his father wouldn't give them pocket money on the weekends, other than having an important event or something.
"Mommy and Daddy went out of town and I was given pocket money."
"Where to?" His parents must have had a sudden job, and didn't even have time to tell him.
"Want to go to Sulawesi, I don't know what business they had to go there. They just said they wanted to go there, so I didn't ask any further."
"How much pocket money did Mommy and Daddy give you?"
"Five million rupiah, you are also given. Daddy said it has been transferred to the account that each of us has,"
"For how many days?"
"Three days."
Indeed, if the man's parents are very generous to their children, the proof is that the 5 million rupiah pocket money is only given for 3 days? What a royal Daddy.
"Think of it as sustenance, Bara. So if I have more money, I, who is a woman, become enthusiastic about shopping." continued Alvira again excitedly.
El just nodded his head, feeling unimportant by what Alvira said. Shopping for many things is a part of life for women, men don't think much about it.
"Oh," El replied. That was all he said, nothing else but that.
Alvira stuck out her tongue, then put all the tote bags in her hands on the table, right in front of her. "What do you do with your money, Bara?" She asked. Alvira rarely, saw El come home with groceries in hand like her. Yes, not infrequently, more like never seen by her.
El shrugged, not knowing what his pocket money would be used for. "No thoughts yet." He says. His flat voice made it clear that he had no interest in using the money.
Five million rupiah for men can be used once because on average all men's goods are more expensive than women's. Besides, El thought there were plenty of jackets, shirts, and pants in the closet, so there was no need to buy any more.
"Eh, I went to the mall and there were shoes that were just released. The price is expensive, but it's worth it. I think it's suitable for you if you want to go for a walk with Black."
If you ask, who is 'Black'? Black is a specially named El motorcycle from Alvira.
"Not interested."
"You have great style, it's better if I choose."
"I'm tired."
What is the end of El's words? Yes, it's about El who is very lazy to respond to conversations if they branch, so he prefers to end it.
Seeing El who seemed to want to leave in front of her, Alvira immediately approached the man and hugged him, hugging El's arms very tightly. "Who said you could go?" She asked.
"Myself," replied El.
No one can rule El but Alvira can do it, that's another short explanation from El.
Alvira smiled. "I still have business with you, I'll come to your room after putting things in mine, okay?" She said to ask permission first. The room the girl had not touched, was El's room. But only she dared to enter carelessly.
"Yes." El's answers are always short, concise, and clear. Even though he knows that Alvira is his favorite sister, his flat character is still attached to his body.
Alvira pinched El's waist, feeling annoyed with her brother's behavior. "Please smile! Smile at me, Bara." She said, feigning annoyance.
El knew Alvira's habit was to make himself smile, every day. But that didn't get him used to smile, it still felt weird when a smile was evident on his face.
Finally, El showed a smile. For some reason, today felt more sincere than usual which seemed forced.
Alvira hugged El's body, a warm hug while sniffing the fragrance from El's body. "Your body smells like Rehan's perfume." She said as she let go of the hug.
El nodded his head, confirming Alvira's guess. "Yes, these are Rehan's clothes."
"Oh... but why are you wearing Rehan's clothes? Where have you been going?"
"I just came back from Rehan's house."
"Isn't he working? I was visiting uncle's coffee shop, where Rehan works, and I saw him."
"Nusa."
El's habit of speaking briefly like this makes other people confused like Alvira now.
"Huh? We're talking about Rehan, not Nusa," replied Alvira. "I want to go to your bedroom, I want to ask about Nusa but not now, now about Rehan."
"Rehan is Nusa's older brother."
Surprised, even Alvira widened her eyes. She didn't know anything about this she didn't think it was important, but somehow she was still curious this time. "Wow, the world feels like it's really small if it's like this, I also want to play at Rehan's house if I have free time."
"What are you thinking?"
"Nothing, is it allowed to visit other people's houses?"
El just nodded, talking to girls did require more effort than talking to Mario, which was the same but more tiring.
"So you've been there since this morning? The school atmosphere became chaotic, and even more fantastically, when I got home from school, this chat was still the hottest topic of conversation, cool."
'What's cool?' thought El.
"Yes, finished talking? I'm going to my bedroom,"
"Okay, I'll go to your bedroom later!"
After that, Alvira was the first to dart from in front of El while taking the tote bag that had been placed on the table, then ran to her room which was on the second floor.
In his heart, El is still grateful to have people who bring happiness to his life. Now, he will act as a guard for a girl so she doesn't lose her cheerfulness.
