A Hope Above the Wait

30. Grief

The next day the sun was up from its hiding, it was seen Syakira had just come from the public bath because she had finished bathing.

On the other hand, at Ayan's house. Samira was already sitting in the dining room together with Ayan and Firman. Seeing the presence of the Word, Ayan's mother looks ordinary. It is like treating a guest properly. He invited Firman to eat and joke together, but when the time went to school Samira who at that time wanted to leave with Ayan arrived Word asked to deliver Samira. At that time Samira seemed to want to refuse, but because Ayan realized that Samira would reject Ayan also gave a code to accept the offer.

Finally inevitably Samira also went with the Word. Arriving at school, he was greeted by Nova, a woman who had been his lover. At that time Nova actually did not want to welcome the Word, but he welcomed Samira as his protege. Seeing that Samira was delivering at that time Firman instead of Ayan, Nova was just stunned to see that he then asked Samira to enter the class. In addition to Nova who was surprised to see the coming of the Word, the Word was also surprised by what was seen by his eyes.

He looks speechless and slowly he approaches Nova, at which time the Word seems to fall back in love with Nova, as well as Nova who looks like she still has a heart with the Word.

"Nova, haven't we met in a long time?" wordi said to Nova by being seen walking closer to Nova. Nova who saw it he just smiled by lowering his head.

"Yes, how did the two of Mas say after Jasmin's death?" ask Nova to the Word well.

Hearing this, the Word answered well. After that Nova returned a smile and he told the Word that he had to leave because he was going to teach soon. The Word who heard it returned a smile and allowed Nova to leave to teach.

When Nova is gone, Firman leaves looking very happy with his meeting with Nova. Although Nova looks like he's in doubt with the Word.

Elsewhere, it appears that Syakira is retreating to and fro. He is seen waiting for the arrival of someone and the person who is waiting for Syakira is none other than the Word, but all the waiting was in vain because the Word was not in love with Syakira after he knew that Syakira was a street girl.

"Why didn't Word come here? Don't don't he don't want to meet me?" syakira said with a face that looks beautiful with a pink flower motif and a black plain skirt.

At that moment he continued to wait by walking to and fro like a confused person. Arriving when he was stopping at one point saw a man's hand holding his shoulder, realizing it Syakira thought that the man was the Word.

Knowing that, Syakira immediately turned around by closing her eyes and without thinking long she hugged the man. He thought that the man was the Word, but the fact was that man was Ayan. Ayan who received the hug he just kept quiet, then he seemed to want to return Syakira's embrace but he did not do that.

"Thank you, thank you for coming to see me!" syakira said without knowing who the man in the hug. At that time Ayan was just silent, and he wanted to return the hug but it was not done, I don't know what made Ayan not return the hug.

Finally Ayan just answered the same to Syakira. Hearing that voice was not the voice of Syakira's Word immediately opened his eyes, he was very surprised by it. He seemed to be hurrying to release his embrace.

"Mas Ayan, I'm sorry. I didn't know it was Mas, I thought it was someone else!" syakira said with a bad look at what she had done.

"Who do you think I am?" answer Ayan. Hearing that remark, Syakira immediately fell silent and he just stared, but at that time he could still hide the identity of the person he was waiting for was the Word.

"Not who is Mas, "sayakira answered well and smiled at Ayan. Realizing that Syakira is actually waiting for someone, Ayan looks ordinary. He doesn't seem to be forcing Syakira to tell. He only gave a plastic bag brought by Ayan for the child. When Ayan was busy sharing food, it was seen Syakira looking to and fro like a person who looked looking for someone, but the person she was looking for did not come.

At that time Ayan realized that Syakira looks like a confused person and looks like someone who is looking for someone.

However, at that time he did not try to find out who the person who was sought by Syakira. He just looks like a person who does not care, although in fact he is sad with the attitude of Syakira.

"Syakira," called Ayan to Syakira who was at the starting point where she hugged Ayan at that time.

Hearing the call, Syakira immediately turned around and looked towards Ayan. After he turned around he could only lower his head.

"Thank you, because Mas has brought food for children. I shouldn't have done that."

Syakira said with a bad look with Ayan's good attitude to himself and his street children in his care. However, it turns again with her feelings where her self does not love Ayan and only loves the Word.

"The same, Syakira. Later that night, we have dinner yuk," Ayan bargained to Syakira who was in his presence. Hearing the offer, Syakira had thought for a while, after which she raised her head to look at Ayan.

Hearing the answer, Syakira Ayan also invited Syakira to shop, but at that time Syakira refused Ayan by giving an excuse to Ayan if he could not leave the child.

Hearing the answer from Syakira, Ayan is seen not forcing Syakira and his self is seen to accept Syakira's decision and not force her.

Time passed so quickly, Samira was also time to go home, but at that time Ayan and the Word had not come, it happened because Ayan was stuck in traffic as well as the Word. After waiting for a while, Nova comes to Samira who wants to go home.

"Hey, Samira. You haven't come home yet?" nova asked Samira nicely and a small smile on her lips.

"Not yet Ma'am, I was waiting for Papa Firman's arrival" Samira replied, looking back and forth like someone was waiting for someone.

Not long after, his two fathers came. Realizing that, Samira looks confused to come home with whom, but because at that time Samira wants to go home to Ayan, she finally chose to go home with Ayan, word is still in school with Nova.

When the two men had left, it suddenly crossed the mind of the Word. Where she wants to take Nova's dinner with her. At first he hesitates to ask Nova, but he emboldens himself and does not hesitate to offer dinner at one of the restaurants.

"Nova, you have an event tonight or not?" ask the Word to Nova.

"No Mas, I don't have any events what it is," Nova replied kindly to the Word.

Hearing that answer he looks happy, because he thinks this is an opportunity where he returns together with Nova. Finally Firman without hesitation offered Nova dinner. Hearing the invitation, Nova had thought for a moment and finally he wanted to invite dinner with the man he had loved.

Knowing that Nova wants to have dinner with her, Firman looks very happy.

At night came, the Word was seen standing in front of a mirror with a black suit, the white shirt and black tie stood handsome and handsome in front of the mirror with a small smile on his lips with his hair and clothes tidied up.

After all, he rushes out of his room with a happy look to pick up Nova.

Moments later, Firman is seen in front of Nova's house, waiting for Nova's arrival. Not long after, Nova looks come with a white dress and very beautiful in her clothes. She looked like a hijab queen that night, with a small smile and graceful steps. He walked up to the Word, at that time Firman looked dumbfounded to see the beauty of Nova who was not inferior to Jasmin. When Nova was near his car Firman opened the car door for Nova, Nova who realized it that night he felt that he was very in the queen by the Word. Then, slowly he got into the car with a very happy face.

After that followed by the Word who entered the car and sat in the driver's seat.

Elsewhere it appears that Syakira is walking by the roadside thinking about the Word that is not coming today.

"Why didn't the Word come today?" syakira said by talking to herself on the side of the road. Then, not long after he passed the restaurant he visited with the Word. When Syakira passed by the restaurant, she realized that Firman's car was already inside the restaurant.

Realizing that he looked happy and he immediately approached the restaurant to meet the Word. However, when he just opened the door he was already shocked by an unpleasant incident in his view. At that time, he saw the man he loved was eating dinner with someone else.

At that time he was really sad, he wanted to be angry with what was done by the Word, but for what he was angry, he was not who in the life of the Word. Eventually, he prefers to hold on to his anger. He was silent with tears filling his eyes.

He then turned around and left the restaurant with the heartbreak and disappointment that became one in Syakira that night.

When she was away from the restaurant, Syakira sat on an empty garden chair with tears running down her cheeks.

"Why am I so sad to see that? Why can't I be jealous to see Mas Firman having dinner with someone else? You must realize Syakira, who are you in the life of Mas Firman? You're not who in his life!" syakira said with tears that kept wetting her cheeks.

At that time Syakira just stayed in the park by lowering her head. Suddenly, rain fell on his body. Syakira who realized that he did not go looking for a shady place, he was silent with a thousand words and felt the sadness he felt in his heart and felt the rain falling on his body as if he also felt the sadness felt by Syakira that night.
