"Hello, assalamu'alaikum Bun."
"Waalaikumsalam, when will you go home? Mahesa is getting engaged next month. Doesn't her brother exist?"
"God willing next week Bun. This is also preparation,"
"Well, remember to go home before Mahesa gets engaged. You're just two brothers, pity Mahesa if on her happy day her brother isn't even there,"
"Yes Bun, Brother is coming home. I'll let you know when you're at the airport, yeah,"
"Okay, heart, baby. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Yes Bun, waalaikumsalam."
After hanging up her phone, Myesha seemed to get up from her seat. Myesha stared deep into the expanse of tall building lights that glowed like stars in the dark sky.
The beautiful city at night in Egypt has become its daily food for one year.
Several times Myesha seemed to let out a long and heavy sigh when she was reminded that she had to go home.
One year, ah it seems that maybe ten years is also still not enough for a Myesha to forget the figure of Inspiration that has been embedded in his deepest heart.
"Why is it so hard to forget you, Gus. Even during this one year, your shadow kept haunting me. And now, it must come back when my heart is still not ready to go back there" he murmured inwardly.
After a long time of contemplation, Myesha finally went to the bathroom. Myesha immediately cleansed herself, then took the water.
When his heart was broken like this. Myesha always complained all her to the creator. All the grievances in his heart always Myesha poured out on each bow until his heart felt calm again.

"Hows it? Does Myesha want to go home?" ask Ardi's father to his wife who just finished contacting his eldest daughter.
"God willing Well, when his sister wanted his fiancee there was none. Myesha is not that big sister." replied Mother Realyn who believes that the princess will definitely go home when her sister Mahesa will step one step to start her new life by inviting the lover of the heart.
"Thank God. Supposedly, the one who married first was Myesha because she was the first child. It is not good if an older sister is stepped on by her younger brother," said Ardi's father sad when remembering that Myesha might be stepped on by his sister.
"The person's destiny no one knows Well, Mahesa also just got engaged. Who knows in the midst of the wedding preparations Mahesa eh even Myesha who married first. A person's destiny no one knows, right?" ardi's father replied to calm the wife.

"Assalamu'alaikum,"
["Waalaikumsalam, where's dear? Mommy's at the airport but you don't exist?"]
"Then Bun, I went to the toilet first. Mother just wait in front, Shasa will go straight there,"
"Yes Bun,"
Both mother and son ended their phone calls. Myesha who had just finished her business in the toilet immediately washed her hands and then came out of the toilet cubicle at the airport.
By dragging her large suitcase, Myesha rushed straight towards the front where the Mother was waiting for her there.
And just as he was about to exit through the door, his body collided with the sturdy body of someone who was just about to enter the airport.
Bruggkkkk
"Aww,,,"
"Astaghfirullah, are you okay?" asked the sturdy man when he saw a petite woman in shar'i clothes fall after colliding with his body.
"Yes that's okay" she replied without looking at the man while trying to get up.
"Let me help" said the man, extending his hand.
Seeing the hand of a man in front of her, the girl immediately clenched her hands in the chest to refuse politely the man's hand.
"I'm sorry, not mahram. I can stand on my own" replied the girl who made the man pull his hand back.
"Alright, sorry." replied the man without moving a bit from the front at the girl.
The girl finally got up from her seat and tidied up her clothes. And after her the girl straightened her body and turned to the man who had not yet moved from there.
"Right, you okay? Do I need to go to the clinic?" ask the man again.
"No, I'm good either sa___,"

Myesha gasped in shock upon seeing who the man who had just hit her body was at this moment. Even so shocked, Myesha's body froze in place with eyes straight towards the man.
So even with the man, a little surprised but after his relief and also happy to be immeasurable because his premonition turned out to be true. Feeling familiar with the person he accidentally hit, making him not immediately move from there when he was in the rush of time, just to make sure if the girl he knew.
The two can only be silent with a look at each other. After a few minutes, Myesha realized that what she was doing was a big mistake and had to stop it immediately.
"Astaghfirullah aladzim, sorry. I'm fine, you don't have to worry" continued Myesha directly lowered her head.
"Thank God, where are you going?" the man replied filled with relief.
Finally, after a year of enduring endless longing and not also finding a place to let go of that longing. Now the man, like getting water in the middle of the arid desert.
"I want___,"
"Myesha,,,"
Someone called out to stop Myesha who was just about to answer the question. Seeing the middle-aged woman waving towards him made Myesha immediately rush over without any intention of answering the question given by the man earlier.
"Sorry, I have to go. Excuse me," answered Myesha in the end and immediately died the man who was still frozen in his place.
Staring at the back of Myesha who slowly started to move away from her. And then disappeared among people who passed back and forth at the airport.
"Sir Ilham, what's wrong? Why are you even daydreaming here?" rebuke one who breaks the reverie of Inspiration against Myesha.
"Astaghfirullah, Bayu you make me hang." replied Ilham while rubbing his chest because shocked by the reprimand that Bayu did, the young man who had been his aspri for one year.
"Lagian Gus Ilham why dream here anyway. Our plane already want to take off sir, later miss even so bothered to schedule again." replied Bayu reminded if the plane they will be riding soon will fly.
"Sorry, okay. Let's go."
The two men finally rushed to the departure gate leaving a million questions for Ilham who was reunited with Myesha after one long separation.
