It's a bit suspicious, until now Boim and Gusur still often live in the same room. They board together in a row house. Actually, Boim was the one who boarded, but Gusur often slept in Boim's room instead of staying with his friends.
Don't know why. Initially, Boim, who pretended to be a hero but loved watching horror films, was always scared every time he slept alone in his boarding house. And he also forcibly kidnapped Gusur from his "nest" to accompany him to sleep. The term is "nest", because the actual appearance is almost like a nest, you know. Gusur's boss built a room for his grandson upstairs, like a bird cage. Kikikik (giggle full of insults!).
So that night, when the two of them had finished watching the Kuntilanak DVD, and the sound of thunder boomed outside accompanied by the sound of the wind blowing like a kuntilanak howling, Boim and Gusur were stressed and were getting ready to sleep when suddenly there was a knock on their bedroom door. Wow!!! Boim and Gusur immediately looked at each other, surprised.
"Who the hell is this late at night? It's already eleven o'clock, you know. Could it be..." Boim was scared. His face was pale.
"Come uninvited, go home undelivered..." Gusur's voice sounded shaky.
"Huaaaa, don't scare you, Sur!" Boim screamed.
"I'm not scared. It really feels like a red-eyed kuntilanak..."
"Huaaa! Why are his eyes red?!" shouted Boim again.
"Yes, it hurts my eyes," said Gusur calmly.
"Come on, don't act like you're screaming like a sundel hole. It's better if you open it. I'm really sleepy."
"Ah, no! What if the kuntilanak really has red eyes? Just come on..." Boim kicked Gusur until Gusur fell off the bed. The sound was like a sack of rice falling. Bruk!!!
Gusur finally got up in annoyance, grumbling while holding his sore buttocks and his eyes were wide open from sleep. .
"Ah, that's too bad! - The kuntilanak is just scared! Huh!" Gusur pretends to be brave
got up and opened the door. And....
Jerenggg!!! It turned out that what appeared in front of him was a girl with long and somewhat messy hair. Cash Gusur screamed in surprise and fear. "AAAAAHHHH...!!!" His voice is loud like a girl! Louder than Boim's voice. Boim even started shouting using it
sound two. Gusur thought the girl standing in front of him was a real kuntilanak. Because the girl happened to be wearing a white shirt and a long white skirt too.
Boim, who was originally curled up like a gun on his bedclothes, immediately buried his head behind the pillow.
In fact, the girl was Sri Heruni, a former girl from Gusur when the sableng artist was on school vacation for a month and was working as an artist in Malioboro. Then he met Sri, who at that time was wearing a scout uniform, and was shyly standing while holding a lamppost on Jalan Malioboro like an Indian artist. That's when Gusur fell in love at first sight. Bang!
Instead, for Sri the curse began. Hehehe. Just so you know, Sri is a plain type of girl and her makeup is conventional. Her hair was down to her back and just hanging loose. His face was pale because he was tired after traveling by train from Jogja to Jakarta. He was carrying a traveling bag.
"Mr Gusur... it's me. Have you ever forgotten?" Sri's voice sounded hoarse.
Gusur, who was shaking, tried to observe Sri from head to toe. He tried to step back, but instead Sri just moved closer, aka entered Boim's room.
Boim was shaking more and more in the corner, covering his face with a pillow, occasionally peeking out curiously.
"I went to Engkong's house earlier, but Engkong said you were staying here... I'm Sri Heruni..."
"Sri Heruni...? Oh my! Sri Heruni! How did you get here? How are you, Sri...?"
As soon as he found out it was a human, Boim immediately lifted his head from behind the pillow and repeated his mischievous comments about Sri's name. "Sri Heruni? How forced is his name? His nickname is Heru, right?"
While Gusur didn't care about Boim's remarks, he was still very surprised to see Sri. He immediately greeted Sri and asked her to sit down.
"Are you from Jogja or Boyolali? How come you didn't say anything to Jakarta? What's your business, Sri?"
Sri instead lowered her head languidly, sadly. Gusur immediately rushed to get drinking water for Sri. Meanwhile, Boim was busy behind Sri. He was still curious about whether Sri was really human or a sundel bolong.
As a result, he snuck around and examined Sri's back. Gusur and Sri didn't realize it.
"Who are you going to Jakarta with, Sri?"
"Just be alone, sir. I'll run away..."
"Huh? Run away?! Why, Sri? Wow, why are you so strange? What will happen if your family finds out later?" Gusur was really shocked. Overacting like one of the Indonesian soap opera stars.
Sri sighed in annoyance. "Just ignore it. I can't stand it anymore, Mas. I want to be matched with your choice. That's why I just ran away this morning. Luckily I still saved Mas's address in Jakarta."
Gusur swallowed hard, then asked carefully, "You were matched with that rotten young cow boss, right? What's his name?"
"Suharyadi."
Gusur tried to hold back his jealousy. "Oh yes, Mas Haryadi. Huh, even though compared to him, I'm nowhere near as handsome, you know!"
Boim suddenly screamed, "Waaa!!!"
Gusur and Sri were shocked and turned to Boim. The curly boy became embarrassed himself, then grinned and shook his head.
"Why are you screaming like that? What are you doing there?" Gusur was annoyed to see Boim looking around behind Sri.
"Oh, uh, no. I thought there was a hole in her back, eh, it turns out the bullet points on her back were the shadow of my own head..."
Sri was stunned. Gusur just remembered and introduced them. "Oh yes, meet my friend... Boim LeBon..."
Sri Heruni offered his hand. "I'm Sri Heruni, usually called Sri. Mas Gusur's ex... when I met in Jogja. At that time Mas Gusur was a painting artist on the side of Jalan Malioboro. But because my father didn't agree, we didn't make it..."
Gusur was a bit embarrassed because his history was revealed.
Boim nodded and said his name back, "My name is Bon... Boim LeBon. So, where do you plan to stay? It's already late."
"That's it, I'm confused too. I don't know Jakarta..."
"Mm... how about just staying here?" Gusur suggested.
Boim and Sri were both shocked.
"Huh? You're crazy, Sur! We could be raided. Let's just stay at Gusur's house. Let Sri stay here alone. Are you brave, Sri?"
"Mm... well, just be brave. Rather than thinking you're cohabiting?"
Gusur suddenly smiled in amusement.
"Why you, Sur? Why are you smiling so unclearly?"
"No. Talking about cohabitation, I remember when I was still in Jogja. There was a student who was caught living at home with his girl. When his father from a remote area came, got angry, and asked, 'You're cohabiting, right?', he answered , 'No, sir, I'm just Samen Leven.' Then his innocent father was relieved and said, 'Ooo... that's it. I thought you were cohabiting!'"

Boim, Playboy Brand Duren Tiga is in action again. He was walking to school with Ade Patalianawati. Boim is really getting close to that girl. But as usual, Boim's illness, which was difficult to remember people's names because most of his crushes, started to recur again.
"Ng... when you get home from school, have lunch at the food court, Rit!"
Ade turned to Boim while holding back a smile. "Rit? Is my name Rita?"
Boim was shocked and then realized, then patted his forehead. "Oops, sorry! I mean Rida. Sorry, right?"
Ade is getting more and more amused. "Ade, darling... My name is Ade. Oh, don't change your name as you please! You might get angry and then my mother will give you the name."
"Oh yes, Ade! Oh, how come I'm so senile like this."
"Mostly girls," said Ade.
"Oh, no! Who said that?" Boim dodged it.
"Well, why do you make mistakes like that?"
Boim grinned. "Yes, that's it, Ida. When I fall in love I really get nervous like this. Sorry, Ida." .
Ade's face, which initially turned red from blushing when Boim said he was in love, when he heard the word "Ida" he was shocked.
"Why, Ida?" Ade's voice sounded half-annoyed.
"Why, he said earlier," Boim was also surprised.
"It's cool," shouted Ade, starting to get impatient. "My name is ADE!"
Boim feels uncomfortable. "Uh yes, Ade."
Then he patted his forehead while babbling, "Ade, Ade, Ade, Ade...!"
Ade became bored along the way. Boim tried to tempt him to death, but it didn't work. Meanwhile, Lupus' two other friends, namely Anto and
Adi, was kind enough to invite Sri on a city tour around Jakarta and finally invited Sri to stop at a warteg.
Menik, the son of a warteg owner who is fat and has had feelings for Gusur for a long time, already knows the story about Sri Heruni coming from the village to chase Gusur. Menik fell in love with Gusur, but Gusut was the only one who was disabled, didn't realize it. That's why when Anto and Adi took Sri to their stall, Menik, who was serving, looked sullen.
Pakde, the shop owner, is none other than Menik's father, so he was surprised to see Menik. "Why, Nduk? Your face looks like a shark?"
"He definitely came to Jakarta and wanted to ask Mas Gusur to marry him, sir!" whispered Menik Keki to her babe.
"Yeah, just leave it alone, why are you the one who's so annoying? Are guys just Gusur? There are a lot of men with brighter futures around here. Handsome, again. Not like Gusur. His job is to eat snacks, just spend money!"
Sri, who heard Menik's father's words, was immediately shocked.
"Does Gusur like to borrow money here, sir?"
Uncle became uncomfortable, he immediately groaned and corrected, "Oh, eh, no, this is talking about another Gusur!"
Meanwhile, Adi started interrogating Sri. "So... you ran away from Jogja because you were afraid of getting married? Why? Wouldn't it be nice to marry?"
Anto poked Adi's head. "You're the only one who's stubborn, you want to rush the merits. But I salute you, Sri. Whatever it is, a girl has to have an attitude. Love can't be forced, right? You have to chase true love!"
"Alaaa, you know too much, To. It's like you've never been in a relationship!"
"Shhh, you're noisy! I've read in books, it's really like that! Eh, Sri, by the way, who is your true love? Gusur, huh?"
Hearing Anto's words, Menik immediately became inflamed. Noisily he hit the butt of pans and other objects so that there was a banging sound. Everyone was shocked. But Menik, with her innocent face, wandered backwards. Sri, who had been smiling and wanted to answer, was shocked and turned around. Menik really looked at Sri with the corner of his eye.
Anto and Adi immediately exchanged glances and giggled.
"You're looking for trouble, To! That's enough, don't talk about it! It's a shame someone's heart is broken."
"Heartbroken today? Cape deeeh...," said Anto.
"Meat on skewers. Sate deeeh. His friend is jengkol. Pete deeeh. Inside is bakwan. Toge deeeh. The one who plays the soap opera Intan. Dude deeeh...," replied Adi.
Meanwhile, Pakde immediately rushed to hide the knife and other sharp objects.
Menik was surprised, "Eh, why, sir?"
"No. I'm afraid you'll kill yourself."
Menik became even more annoyed.
Anto then persuaded Sri, "But, Sri, I think it's better if you just go back to Jogja. It's scary, running around like this. The problem isn't solved, right?"
Sri looked down sadly, looking at the diamond ring on her ring finger. Adi saw this.
"Uh, that's an engagement ring, right?"
Sri nodded. "Yes, from that cow boss. I actually tried hanging out with him, learning to love. He's a good person and I really like him too."
"Oh yeah? Well, then why did you say that your engagement to him was broken off?"
"Yeah... in the end we broke up. As we got here, my feelings for Mas Haryadi started to change."
Adi nodded. "Oooh, I see. But why is that ring still on your finger?"
Sri looked at the ring. "My feelings for Mas Haryadi are starting to change, but my feelings for this diamond ring... will never change!"
Everyone was shocked to look at Sri. Matre is a child too!

Gusur was lying down in his "birdcage", because he was sleepy last night and didn't sleep well thinking about Sri. Suddenly, Sri's parents came screaming and rudely woke Gusur up.
"Oooh, this is the guy!"
Gusur woke up and looked up in surprise. Sri, Anto, and Adi, who were following Sri's parents, looked panicked, trying to prevent Sri's parents from getting angry.
Gusur woke up, rubbing his eyes. "Uh, sir..."
"What do you mean, kid Gusur? How dare you run away with someone's child! Don't you know? She already wanted me to marry her off to a cattle boss! You even persuaded her to run away to Jakarta! What can you really do to support her?"
Gusur immediately panicked because his father Sri immediately started accusing him. "Oh, be patient, sir, be patient. I'll explain first. That's actually..."
"You know, son Gusrak," interrupted Sri's father.
"Move, sir," corrected Anto.
"It's up to me, I'm just angry. Do you know yourself, son of Kasui, you who are poor and destitute, don't you want to compete with the rich Juragan Haryadi?" Sri's father's voice became increasingly shrill.
Sri's mother started to feel uncomfortable with her husband, who had just had an accident, so she tried to mediate. "Shhh, sir! Sis, don't go too far! Don't you remember? When you wanted to marry me, you were also rivals with the cracker boss. He was richer than you at that time..."
Hearing her mother's defense, Sri Heruni immediately said loudly, "Yes! The proof is that Mother still chooses Father!"
"That's because I'm handsome. Well, what can we expect from this child? Is it handsome or not, what else is rich..."
Gusur became annoyed at being insulted like that. "Wait, sir, let me explain the problem first..."
"Sit??? Who's sitting? Why is my man still standing astride like this?" Sri's father said he didn't connect.
"What I mean is, let me explain first, that I have never ordered or warned Sri to run away to Jakarta! I would never have intended to run away from your child! It's already difficult for me to run alone, because I'm overweight. Overweight , bow!"
Sri Heruni also immediately defended Gusur, "Yes, sir. That's enough, sir, ma'am, don't be angry here. It's a shame. Mas Gusur is not wrong. Sri ran away from home on Sri's own initiative. After all, ladies and gentlemen forced Sri marrying a rotten bachelor like that. It's a waste of love, I'm bored, sir!"
"Eeeh, Kowe iki piye tho? You used to have a match with Kowe Karo..."
When Sri's father spoke Javanese like that, Adi immediately looked around confused and shouted,
"What area are we in? Wow, it looks like we're roaming! Outside the service area! I don't understand the language!"
Mr Sri realized, immediately became embarrassed and changed to Indonesian. "In the past, Sri once wanted to be married to a young, handsome man, his name was Wawan. But he refused. Even though Wawan's father wanted to give him the inheritance of the house if Sri wanted to marry his son..."
"Oh, I'm too lazy, sir. His father gave him a Perumnas inheritance like that. The installments are still thirteen years! That's tough!" Sri said.
Sri's father was stunned, like a toothless cow.

Even though he had been hanging out with Ade, Boim still mispronounced the girl's name. At that time the two of them were in the school cafeteria.
"Tonight, Sunday evening, would you invite Brother Bolelebo to watch it there?"
Ade nodded, while feeding the meatballs.
"Yes. But you'll pick me up first, right, Im?"
"Yes, Utit. Can't I bear you to come alone?"
Ade, who had been smiling happily, immediately became annoyed. "Utit? That's really a pun..."
"Eh, oops, sorry..." Boim immediately changed the subject before Ade sulked again.
"Mm... oh yeah, let's wear twin t-shirts, okay? I've bought them for you!"
Boim took out two T-shirt items with rock star motifs like that.
"Wow, thanks! You're really kind, Im..."
"Hehehe. What can't I give Uya?"
"You're really annoying, aren't you? That's enough, I'll just go home! Turns out you don't really care about me! Annoyed!"
Boim was stunned. Ade took his bag and ran out of the canteen.
"Oh, why are you angry?"
***
Sri and her parents were already on the terrace of Gusur's house. Get ready to go home to Jogja. Lupus CS is all there.
"I'm sorry for being emotional with you earlier, sir," said Sri as a sign of farewell.
"Yeah. It's nothing. I understand."
Sri's father, who was fierce and arrogant, didn't want to apologize. In fact, I just want to go home in a hurry. He looked at his watch. "Come on, let's go now! We're afraid we'll miss the train!"
Anto shouted, "Oh, what time is it, sir? There are still three hours left. Let's chat first, Grandpa."
"Yes, sir. There's no traffic jam from here to Gambir. It's only thirty minutes!" Boim said.
"Yes, sir, it's better to just stay here for now. So that you can get to know Gusur better!" added Adi.
Gusur immediately slapped Adi's head.
"No, I'm afraid of causing trouble. Forgive me, sir..." Sri's father finally melted.
Gusur breathed a sigh of relief. "Oooh, finally... I'm sorry too!"
"Why indeed, Sur?"
"Oh, uh, no. Be careful, sir..."
Sri Heruni hugged Gusur. "Go home first, sir. Come on, everyone..."
When the family left, Lupus whispered to Gusur, "Sri's father really values his time, doesn't he, Sur?"
Gusur whispered back, "Yes, that's right, a former watch repairman like that!"

That afternoon there was an old beggar, a grandfather, with shabby clothes and it was hard to walk. He was using a cane, and seemed to be starving, because his body was shaking. At that time, Gusur had just come home from school. When they passed each other, Gusur, who had been familiar with it since birth, did not understand the beggar's suffering.
"Son, help me, son..." said the old grandfather.
Gusur stopped in his tracks and looked at the old beggar.
"Why, sir?"
"I haven't eaten in three days..."
Gusur was shocked. "Wow, that's great! Grandpa is powerful, isn't he?"
"Son... this is serious. I'm really tired! I can't walk anymore..."
Gusur understands. "Oooh, Grandpa want to eat?"
The old beggar nodded hopefully, hoping to be given money or food. But telmi, apparently Gusur still doesn't realize it. Gusur's hands moved to give directions. "Don't worry, Grandpa. From here, Grandpa, just keep going straight. When you meet a corner, Grandpa turns right. Well, five meters from there there is a warteg called Warteg Pakde! The food is really delicious. OK, Grandpa?"
Gusur then smiled happily because he felt that he had helped someone in providing information, and he immediately walked away.
The old beggar was stunned. "Today there are still young people who are slow like that?!"
