8. Hide the Hands

"I was the one who ordered via whatsapp." The girl said, looking at her two friends who had now taken their seats.

"You don't work, Nda?" Asked Wildan while preparing the dish. Wanda, the girl who just came to Wildan's stall just smiled and then looked at Wildan's hand who was preparing food agilely.

"This is in order to take a break, Brother. If I don't work then what do I want to eat? I can't just stand by while hoping for a gift from my parents. Not like you, Brother. I think your life is so comfortable. You can sell something and at least you can get money every day. "

"You can too if you want."

"There is no capital yet"

"Capital is not the main thing, Nda. As long as you have a strong determination, a capital of five hundred thousand will do. "

"How can I make that kind of money ? I can only work three to four million a month. For daily meals, I have to spend one hundred thousand a day. Try how much money I live "

Wildan scratched his head. He did not stop thinking about Wanda's mindset. A boarding house girl next to a rented house that he had known for two years.

"Your meal, Please!"

Two of Nanda's friends nodded and tried to smile, teasing the shop owner. Wildan pretended not to see. After putting down the three bowls beforehand, he immediately left them.

"Three iced tea, Brother" ask one of Nanda's friends with a spoiled voice. "

"Yes. Wait a minute.'

"OK"

"Uh, what the hell are you so flirtatious." Wanda protested with annoyance.

"You said earlier that I was free to say anything here? As long as I treat it right? '

"But don't be so small, kale, tacky you know? Brother Wildan would also not like it when you saw you were too aggressive. "

Wanda's friend smiles. She knows that Wanda is jealous of her acting. All this time she concluded that Wanda has a love for Wildan. She often tells Wildan with a happy glow, without caring that her friends are very tired of hearing the same story every day.

"What do you mean?" Wanda is silent. She did not think that Wildan was beside her. She was confused about what to explain to Wildan. She knew that Wildan was not a man who could easily be teased by women. He would have been angry if their arrival was only to see the face of the seller of Nanda's favorite noodle.

"Eh, no. . no really. I know that you really don't like girls who are small, that's why I prevented my friends from teasing you. "

"O"

"How come only O the reaction?"

"So what?"

"Yes, at least there is another reaction, is that it?"

"Sorry, I have to go immediately."

Wildan left Wanda slightly annoyed. Occasionally he looks at the road, waiting for the arrival of other customers.

From afar, Dzi who was walking to the stall immediately stopped her steps. She looked at the Wildan stall closely. She slowly stepped back to see the three girls she knew very well.

Slowly she turned around, but not yet perfect she turned a hand to prevent her.

"Where are you going?'

"Eh, em .. . Brother Wildan? I. . . want to take a wallet that was left on the motorbike. "

"The wallet later, OK? If you want to eat here now, please! It is free for you. "

"Mm. . . not want to buy noodles . Me. . . I want to say that this afternoon the youth recitation event will be canceled next week. The chaplain said that today there is an event out and the recitations in our mosque are for the next four days."

"O, alright. I'll tell all the members in the group later. Don't you have my number, how come you have to bother coming here? '

"Em, my phone is reset. The old number has been blocked and all of the contact numbers are gone, except for my family's number which I saved on Google.

"How come?" Dzi blushed. She didn't know why she could be that stupid.

"Yes, so far I have always kept contacts on the SIM card. I'm stupid. Never anticipated what might happen. " Said Dzi while looking down. Wildan smiled at the red face of Dzi who was holding shame because of her stupidity. He couldn't stop thinking. how could a girl as smart as a Dzi lose all the contacts just because the SIM card is blocked.

"Not stupid."

"Just careless, huh?"

"Ha ha ha, not really. Maybe You made a mistake. Ha ha ha, "Wildan's laughter reached the ears of the customers beforehand, causing them to turn their head towards them. Including Wanda and two of her friends.

"Huh, Dzi again." Tentacle Wanda was annoyed. Wida and Bekti who saw Wanda's annoyance immediately furrowed their brows.

"Who is she?"

"Usually the troublemaker. Wherever she is, she always messes up my plans. You also need to be vigilant when you meet her. Especially if you are with your lover. I really haven't met her. "

"So what?"

"Your lover will get the pellets."

"Uh, use the pellets?"

"What if it's not pellets? I'm one hundred percent sure that she used it. They always attract men. "

"But we need to try Wanda. You're single, huh. You need to learn from girls. Already wearing the veil, still using pellets too.

"Don't like gossip. Not necessarily what Wanda said was right. She's really pretty. " A woman who heard Wanda's words interrupted Wanda's emotions and then opened her eyes.

"Don't interfere, Sist. I'm not using free channels. So please don't connect. "

"What's wrong, Nda? How come all the fuss in my shop? " Nanda, who didn't notice Wildan's presence, was stunned. Confused about what to answer, she lowered her head.

"No, Brother. There's nothing, right, Sista? "

The interlocutor looked away and then left Wanda.

"Yes, I have two feet and two sweet oranges."

"Twenty six thousands"

The girl held out a sheet of fifty thousand. After receiving the change, she looked at Nanda then left the stall noodles with annoyance.

"I have."

"No need to pay, Nda. You just save the money for your dinner. "

"No, Brother. The one who wants to pay Bekti and Wida. Just let them pay. The period must be free. Poor you please. "

"It's okay, that's promotion."

"Don't want to eat for free. Wanda will not recommend it to friends if you don't want to be paid. "

Pensive Wildan. He immediately nodded and then received hundreds of thousands of money from Wida's hand.

"Good. Thirty thousand only, the iced tea is free. "

"Cool, thank you."

"You're welcome."

"By the way, Why did Dzi come here ?."

"Oh, she just wanted to say that the youth recitation was postponed the next four days because the chaplain was out of town."

"Can't she send a message?"

"The cellphone has been reset. My number is missing. "

"You believe that?"

Wildan nodded. There is no reason not to believe what Dzi is saying. All this time he knew that Dzi always behaved and said the truth

"Yes, why don't you have a little suspicion?"

"Suspicious of what? She didn't steal, nor did she mean badly to me. "

"Uh, that's not necessarily the case. It could be, she deliberately wanted to peek at me who was approaching you. She seems to be in love with you. "

"No way, Wanda. I know myself. Rotten bachelors, don't have any work to do. "

"Uh, don't be modest, everyone knows that you are handsome. I am sure that many girls like you. Example . . . "

"Who?"

"Really!" Nanda pointed at Wida and Bekti with both fingers. Make them pinch Wanda together.

"Ow, it hurts you know?"

"You don't like rumors. I'm not in love with Brother Wildan. Don't believe her. "

"Me too. Don't fall in love with you. All I know is that Wanda is the one who has trouble with you. Every day she was told about you in the office. "

"O yes?"

"Yes. Where is there another boy in her heart? "

"What is it.? Don't play stone throwing, hide your hands, ah. It's not cool to know. "

"Let me not. . . . " The three girls in front of Wildan stopped chatting with Wildan when a black sports car stopped in front of them.
