When he found out that Lupus was betting too, Adi Darwis immediately became angry. Because Lupus will be his toughest rival. Moreover, recently Lupus was caught chatting intimately with Happy. How can Adi not be confused? The opportunity to get a new girl, plus a hundred thousand in cash can fly.
"I'm just having fun... Don't worry," said Lupus casually in response
Adi panicked.
"It's not like that. What if you win? You already have Poppi, Pus...
Do you want to be happy too?" Adi protested.
"Oh, Adi.... He said it was a free bet. Poppi doesn't have anything to do with it.... He's in America. Besides, this is just for fun..."
Lupus does not seem like a burden. But Adi still doesn't seem willing to let Lupus join in the bet for Happy.
And the noisy news about Happy finally reached Lulu's ears. How could it not arrive, Adi, when there is a problem, he gets excited and asks for forgiveness. Everyone is told. He really has the talent to be a good publicist.
"Pus, who is that Happy that Adi likes to fuss over?" Lulu asked suddenly when Lupus was busy waiting for Poppi's call that evening. Lulu sat near Lupus while holding a small plate of black forest cake made by Mami. While pinching the cake piece by piece, Lulu was ready to hear what her sister had to say.
"You know, do you remember my elementary school friend whose child was fat. The one who liked to bring food to school every day? The one whose eyes were crossed when asked for food...," explained Lupus.
"That happy one? How can you make a fuss about it? Isn't he fat?"
"But now it's really different, Lu. The kid is skinny, and really good. I didn't even introduce him when we first met him. He was the one who talked to me first."
"Oh, yeah? Adi finally got him, didn't he?"
"In fact, now the children are betting. Happy is my school idol. So, whoever gets to be with Happy, he will win the bet."
Lulu immediately hated hearing that. "Why is that like that? Why are girls making bets? You're not taking part, are you, Pus?"
Lupus smiled cockily. "Why not? The prize is one hundred thousand, Lu... Who doesn't want...? And it looks like I have a chance
for win...."
"Oh, that's rude of you, isn't it? Happy is your ex-friend. How dare you make him a bet? I'll just tell him, okay? Happy will definitely be hurt if he finds out that he was only made a bet!" Lulu became emotional.
"Ah, it's okay. I know Happy. Her child likes to joke around and is careless. If she gets married and gets dumped, she will definitely find another guy easily. She has lots of fans at school," said Lupus lightly.
"Oh, I swear you won't win! You can play with girls' feelings as you please!" Lulu so jijai sat near her sister. He also ran away to his room. I don't have the appetite to continue eating the black forest.
"Then, if I get a hundred thousand, I won't treat you!" shouted Lupus.
"Oh, I don't want to!" Lulu screamed.
The phone rings. Turns out it was from Poppi. Lupus was immediately engrossed in chatting with Poppi. Forgot about Happy's problem.
But it looks like Lupus isn't playing to win that bet. The proof was, the next day Lupus held an even more intense PDKT for Happy. When school was dismissed, Lupus was waiting for Happy at the gate.
Initially, Happy immediately put on a war face when he saw Lupus. The thing is, he still has a grudge about the hostility after Happy didn't go to class. But on the contrary, Lupus puts on a really sweet face.
"Hello, Happy....Are you really funky today?" Happy just glanced
fierce to Lupus. "Let's go home together, shall we? Do you want to accompany me? You haven't experienced riding my Vespa yet..."
"Do not want!" Happy refused curtly.
"Why don't you want to?"
"I'm still annoyed with you."
"Resentful why?"
"You're asking again! Yesterday's problem hasn't been resolved yet! You haven't answered yet, why are you being arrogant! Why don't you want to be my friend anymore, when I don't go to class?" babbling Happy
"Oh, Happy... That's in the past... At that time we were still both young. Still both stupid... If I knew you could be so sweet like this, I definitely wouldn't have the heart to antagonize you."
Being praised like that, Happy's thoughts bloomed a little. But a second later, he put on a war face again. "So if I'm still fat, you'll still be enemies with me? Is that so?"
"Yes, no, don't you? Do you want to go home with me, right?"
Happy thought for a moment. Then he opened his mouth, "You apologize first. Your sins against me are many. For years, I have held a grudge against you."
"Okay, okay. I'm really sorry about that one. I'm sorry. I feel really stupid for wasting a friend as good and sweet as you. I'll do whatever you ask..."
Happy's eyes lit up. "Right?"
"Right."
"Now you fart first."
Lupus immediately became bored. Happy then left Lupus while laughing. They're getting even!
But what happened that afternoon made Lupus even more nervous. When he got together with the boys in the evening, Lupus boasted that he was just one step away from winning the bet. He said just talk about love. That of course made Adi hot. Adi immediately maneuvered, making a really hot love letter. And that same night, his love letter was read in front of the children. Want to hear? Oh, that's cool... Just try reading.
"Happy that comes to me every night in my dreams.... Every time I see you, I want to
I feel like I'm taking you to chase away the cold night, and we're making love among the burning candles, with the night breeze caressing through the wide open boarding house window. Happy my angel, welcome the flame of my love, with your love that also burns...
Let me happily land on your chest..."
Meta, who was hanging out at the shop, immediately protested loudly to Adi, "Oh, stop! Stop! Your letter is really disgusting... It's like reading a mimeograph."
Boim even laughed. "Great, Di... You're really great. I didn't expect that
could be Anny Arrow's tough rival.... Huahahahaha...."
But it looks like Lupus really wasn't playing to win that bet. The proof is that when he got home, Lupus already had another move to get Happy. Moreover, if not for Mami's closeness to Aunt Usman, Happy's mother. Yes, Mami used to be really close to Aunt Usman.
"Mi, do you remember Aunt Usman's telephone number?"
Mami, who had somewhat forgotten, because she hadn't had contact with Aunt Usman for a long time, was confused when she looked at Lupus.
"Which Aunt Usman?"
"That's our neighbor when we were in the complex. His son's name was Happy... The one who used to be fat..."
"Oh, that... I think it's in Mami's phone book. So why do you suddenly want to call Aunt Usman?"
"Lupus, please call Happy... I haven't called for a long time..."
"Well, just look in the brown telephone book..." said Mami as she became engrossed in reading a cookbook.
"Thanks, Mi..." Lupus immediately flipped through the telephone book
intended. And after finding Aunt Usman's telephone number, Lupus immediately contacted Happy.
"Hello? Can I talk to Happy?" On the other end, Happy himself answered the phone.
"Yes, this is Happy."
"What are you doing, Hap?"
"Who's this?"
"Lupus... Why don't you introduce my voice?"
"Lupus? How do you know my phone number, Pus?"
"You know... I used to be an old friend... I never forget you
lo...," Lupus started flirting again. Happy sneered.
"Really? Aren't you mean, you don't want to know me anymore?"
"No, Suer, Hap... About that past, I really regret it.
Actually, I never forgot you.... I always remember when we were
buried the doll together in the garden behind the school..."
Hearing Lupus' confession, Happy's heart melted. Happy's most memorable childhood experience was when he buried Lupus' doll. At that time they promised that they would be together until they were old...
"Do you really remember that?" Happy asked
"How could you forget? That's the most unforgettable moment in my life...."
And PDKT Lupus succeeded in getting to Happy. Lupus immediately excitedly told Lulu about his success.
"I'll definitely win the bet. Because I use strategy, not like Boim and Adi who play figures. My strategy is this: First, don't
until Happy makes enemies of me.... I have to make peace with him first. Next, just PDKT... hehehe...."
Lulu looked at her brother in disgust, I'm becoming more and more displeased with you,
Pus... Oh God, I hope Lulu won't be given a guy like Lupus... Amen."
Lupus just laughed as he lay down on the bed.
The next day, the boys tried to win Happy's sympathy. But it seems like everything has a small chance. From those named Boim, Gusur, Anto to Aji who have tried, but they still can't beat Happy. Adi Darwis, who has specially prepared his love letter, is the last hope to defeat Lupus.
"Don't worry.... Get the money ready. He'll definitely freak out when he reads my letter..."
Adi boasted, accompanied by the gazes of the children who were curious to see Happy's reaction at that time.
Happy had just finished playing basketball and went straight to the side of the court, taking a towel from his backpack. Adi approached with his typical style.
"Happy, this is especially for you. Please read it in class... Four times four
sixteen, I don't have time, I have to reply."
Happy accepted dumbly, and Adi immediately turned around on his heels. Children's curiosity doesn't last long. Because when school was dismissed, Happy immediately fulfilled Adi Darwin's request to answer his letter. At that time the boys were gathering in the front stall, and Happy bravely stepped up to them.
His eyes immediately fell on Adi. In front of the children, without the slightest hesitation, Happy immediately got angry at Adi while tearing up Adi's letter.
"You're very impudent, aren't you, Di! This is sexual harassment! I'm demanding compensation from you, okay? Who do you think I am? Just be careless! If you want to make a BF story, don't send it to me, bro!!! Mostly watching Vivid Interactive lo......"
The children were so amazed. Then laughed.
But Adi just grinned.
"It's okay, the letter was torn up... I already don't know what's inside the letter.
that: Happy who comes to me every night in my dreams..."
Happy's face looked bright red, holding back his anger.
"Di, do you want me to kiss you?" Adi nodded enthusiastically.
"Then you brake first..."
The children immediately became excited. And Adi, without the slightest suspicion, immediately closed his eyes. Suddenly, unexpectedly, Happy punched Adi's lips until they protruded. Adi screamed. The kids cheered. Happy exchanged glances with Lupus for a moment, then immediately left the place.
In the afternoon at the mall, the tragedy of Adi's swollen lips was immediately discussed.
"Didn't expect it, girls are really fierce, huh?" commented Boim.
"Yeah, I'd better just step back..." said Anto. .
"Hey, I'm afraid before going to war..." Aji sneered.
"Instead of dousing you with tea. Aren't you embarrassed?" replied Anto again. Coincidentally, when it was Aji's turn to flirt in the canteen, Aji was doused with hot tea.
"The dragons, no one managed to get the virgin. That means the bet is off. Let's just buy the money for food, shall we?" Gusur suggested.
Lupus hurriedly held back. "Eits, later. I haven't tried it yet, right? I still have a chance... Approaching a girl requires patience, don't just show off. Your lips will protrude," he said, glancing at Adi.
Adi pouted. Lupus became even more arrogant, "Now, you can see for yourself how I got Happy. It will definitely be successful. I'm a Smooth Operator..."
Lupus had just stepped into the house after returning from the mall, when Mami, who was mixing dough to prepare the stall, greeted him, "Pus, because you asked Aunt Usman that time, Mami has been on the phone for a long time."
"0, yes, that's great, Mi," said Lupus happily. "But it turns out that Mami wants to ask for help. If possible, you can come to Aunt Usman's house. The problem is that Aunt Usman wants to buy Mami's used mixer. But she said she wants to see the goods first... You want to play there, right?"
Without Mami expecting it, Lupus immediately became enthusiastic. "Oh, okay! Okay, Mi! Where's the mixer? Just bring it in now."
Mami frowned in surprise at the unusual reaction from her child. "Are you confused, Pussy? Since when do you want to move quickly when told to?"
"That's enough. Mami, just calm down... Because Lupus doesn't have any events... Where's the mixer?"
Mami also took a mixer from the kitchen. "But you first get the boxes from the back warehouse..."
"Okie dookie, Mi.... Addduuuh, thanks really, Mi. Mami indeed
baeeek..."
While whistling happily, Lupus stepped into the back warehouse. Mami looked at Lupus. Amazed.
As soon as he found the cardboard, and finished wrapping the mixer, Lupus immediately drove to Happy's house on his yellow Vespa.
Not long after, Lupus arrived at Happy's house. Lupus' dreams immediately flew into the past. He remembered how he used to often play at this house. And not much has changed. Apparently Aunt Usman really loved the shape of her old house. After a moment of nostalgia, Lupus immediately became bored, while nervously waiting for Happy to appear.
It turns out that it was Happy who appeared. Wearing his national attire at home, namely shorts and a tank-top, Happy opened the door carrying a magazine. Happy was immediately shocked to see Lupus
was standing in the doorway carrying a mixer box. Seeing Happy dressed up like that, Lupus' face immediately fell.
"Hello, Happy...," said Lupus.
Happy heavy lifting. He immediately ran into the inner room, screaming, "Waaaaaa"
Not long after, Aunt Usman came out surprised to see Lupus. "Who is it?"
"I'm Lupus, Auntie. My mother told me to bring the mixer..."
Aunt Usman's face immediately brightened. "Ooo, Lupus? How come you're so big now, Pus? Auntie is so confused. Where have you never been? Come on, sit down... Sit down......"
Lupus also pretended to be licking his future in-laws, immediately sat down with a smile and put the box on the table.
"No wonder Happy would wander off into the house like that. Embarrassed to meet his old girlfriend... hehehe...," teased Aunt Usman. Lupus grinned. "Auntie, look at the mixer first, okay? Do you need to call Happy?"
Without waiting twice, Lupus immediately nodded. Aunt Usman got up and left carrying the mixer box. "Later, Happy will bring you something to drink."
And when Happy accompanied Lupus, after changing clothes, the atmosphere between the two children became stiff.
"Please drink it, Pus," said Happy very standardly.
Lupus grinned, then took a small sip of his drink. After that, he put it down again. Then sit up straight. Each of them remained silent. Just glanced at each other, and smiled. Like people dating during Siti Nurbaya's time. When Lupus opened his mouth, suddenly it happened at the same time as Happy who also opened his mouth.
"Lo..."
Both of them were shocked, and embarrassed at each other.
"You go first..." said Happy.
"That's it, ladies first......
Both laughed. The stiff atmosphere became fluid.
"Me first, okay? I want to complain to your friends...," said Happy, frowning.
"Why?"
"How tacky! A lot of kids in your class like to tease me. I don't know why. But every time they see me, they make me laugh. It's like I've never seen a girl before..."
Lupus smiled knowingly. "I often see girls, Hap. But the ones as beautiful as you are rare. That's why it's tacky. You know, my generation has all the hot girls... You should be proud of being teased."
"Yeah, if it's not tacky, that's fine. But this is really tacky."
Both of them then fell silent. Having fun with each other's thoughts. A few minutes later, Lupus spoke again, "Uh, by the way, you're going to be picked up at school tomorrow, right?"
Happy was also surprised to hear Lupus' offer. But his heart was happy.
"Do you really want to pick me up?"
"If you don't mind. Do you want to, or not?" Happy nodded, looking down.
"Yes, that's enough... Then I'll go home first, okay? I want to look after the stall first. When-
When will you stop by, Hap, at the shop?"
"Okay!"
Lupus stood up. After saying goodbye, he left Happy's house. Happy waited in the front doorway. As soon as Lupus was ready to move on his vespa, Happy still peeked out of the window, watching Lupus until he was out of sight. Happy looks happy and smiles to himself....
