Crown Cover

On a clear afternoon, Rudi was still on the bus heading to his home terminal. It didn't feel like he was in that exciting job all day.

After the bus arrived at the terminal, Rudi immediately returned home after saying goodbye to Erlang and Mr. Darto who still wanted to coffee together. Rudi did not follow them because he wanted to go to the market first before going home. He felt that all the clothes he had had had been wearing long enough and that it was time to buy some new clothes.

Rudi still has money from the rest of his previous savings. A few days before his fourth payday.

Rudi rode an angkot with a different department with the angkot he used to ride. Rudi sat in the back seat, he looked back and saw some people he did not know. They are like obedient robots with their jobs, rigid and never a provocateur of the strike.

Rudi remembered the employees of his father who was very obedient to work. His father often gave some incentives to his workers, and they all got those incentives.

"Everyone needs food, everyone needs work" Rudi murmured softly.

After half an hour he was on the angkot, Rudi arrived at the market where he was going to buy some clothes.

He entered the market that had begun to be quiet, Rudi looking for a store that sells t-shirts and levis pants. He did not expect there would be branded clothes like the ones he used to buy while still at home.

Rudi found his shop and started looking through some clothes and then he picked up two black shirts and gave them to the seller.

"Are there jeans?" Ask Rudi.

"What size is it?"

"37an"

"Awhile, yeah,"

The seller took some jeans requested by Rudi from the top drawer of his shop and gave them to Rudi.

Rudi unwrapped the trousers given to him individually, he tried to match the size of his legs. The four trousers given to him look no match for Rudi and he asks for a few more.

A plain jeans without a tight motif but made from elastic.

"That's it, it fits that." A woman suddenly said.

Rudi turned his face and saw the woman who suddenly slapped at him. After Rudi saw the woman, Rudi was shocked not to play. It turned out that the woman was Andin.

"Well, what are you here for?"

"Why? Can't you?"

"Can, can. What are you buying?"

"Buy crown cap"

"Hahaha, you also know yourself. I bought it, it fits you well. Keep on buying me the crown cap."

Rudi agreed with Andin and paid for the clothes he had chosen. After paying, Rudi followed Andin from behind.

"Rud, this is the road together"

Andin invites Rudi to walk side by side.

"Rud, why do you bother yourself to find the woman you want? Wouldn't it be easier if you kept showing your position?"

"Hahaha, let it be exciting. It would be a loss if only our life story would be so-so"

"Hahaha, there are also guys like you"

"Hahaha, birds need to fall from trees in order to enjoy the clouds in the sky."

"It would be easier if they didn't need to fall from the tree to be able to enjoy it"

"Now ask to be hit by waves or waves that want to hit the reef?"

"Not both"

"Keep how"

"The waves and corals actually don't want to collide with each other" Andin looked at Rudi.

Rudi looked at Andin back and raised his eyebrows as if he was asking for the continuation of the story.

"Now we are facing the waves to make sacrifices so that the land is not consumed by salt water and the waves will not exist without the wind that forces it. The two of them were both in the pressure of a natural force that they could not avoid"

Rudi gave an applause for a short speech from Andin.

After walking for a while, Andin stopped in front of a store that sold various kinds of debts. Rudi looked at Andin with wide eyes. Andin chuckled at Rudi's seemingly confused expression.

"This is the crown cap".

Rudi just realized what you mean by the crown cap.
