A Wife's Heart

CHAPTER 12

1 month later....

This morning was so bright, the shining sun greeted the earth. The lira has been awake since dawn and is performing her usual morning activities.

Today Lira is less excited, because it will be right at 9 am, her best friend Bela will hold a marriage contract in her village. It makes Lira sad. His friend and the person who contributed in his life will lead a new life, but Lira can not participate to witness that happiness.

The lira could only send prayers and leave a congratulatory greeting to Bela through her mother. Bela got a greeting from Lira immediately smiled haru. Although Lira was not present on her happy day, at least the sincere prayer of her best friend was enough to represent the presence of Lira.

🌸🌸🌸

This morning Lira plans to find a new job, because her job as a waitress in a lesehan stall is not enough to meet her needs with her mother.

By saying bismillah, Lira was ready while holding a brown envelope containing her high school diploma and hoping that today luck would be on her side.

The lira began walking through office buildings in the capital. Every building that Lira visited, no one received new employees.

Sweats poured all over the Lira. Fatigue attacked his tiny body after a day around the city, entering every office building.

Did the Lira give up? Answer No! The lira will not give up. Again all for the sake of the beloved mother who faithfully awaits the delivery of rupiah that is not how much from him.

Remembering her mother's shady face, Lira seemed to get new energy to keep trying. The Lira is convinced that every human being has his own sustenance. All goes back to man himself, how and in what way he earned his sustenance.

🌸🌸🌸🌸

Lira returns to her boarding house after tired of going around looking for a job that suits her diploma.

Lila laid her tired body down for a moment before she got back ready to go to work.

dratt.dret...

The message went in, Lira woke up lazily and took her HP from her sling bag. A smile rose from her tiny lips. Tears should slide fast on both cheeks smooth after getting a message from his most dear friend.

Bela L. - A.K.A.

📩

To my best friend, the Lira I love because of God. Thank you for praying for the happiness of my marriage. May happiness come soon to you. I want to leave tomorrow, I'm going to Cairo with my husband. God willing, we will meet again someday.

Greetings from friends who love you the most😘

Lira Babe

📩

I also thank you for wanting to be my best friend. I hope you can be a good wife, my best friend.😘

Oh yes, thanks also for the game yes, I like🤭

You be careful there, huh? if you have time, don't forget to tell me here.

Bela L. - A.K.A.

God willing, my dear.😘

The short message ended because the soy sauce Lira then fell asleep with the HP position still in his grasp.

🌸🌸🌸🌸

In his prayer, Lira did not forget to pray for herself, her mother who was sick in the village, also her father who had died. His friend, Bela also did not escape from the strands of his prayer. The Lira pleads with the Almighty to always protect the Lira's loved ones.

After the prayer, Lira rushed to her workplace. Usually at times like this, the lesehan stalls where the sustenance will be crowded. Therefore, the Lira must come faster so that the shop owner is not troubled to serve the buyer.

Warung Lesehan Pak Noor does look simple, but every day is always crowded with visitors. Either because the food is cheap and delicious or because of the presence of Lira that highlights the attention because of its beauty and hospitality when serving buyers.

To be sure, since the presence of Lira in the shop of Pak Noor, the food in the stall was always sold out. There are even those who are willing to queue, but the edges are not part of it. The shop owner was very grateful for the presence of Lira as if bringing sustenance for him.

Lira was happy to be able to help Mr. Noor. But Lira refused if she was considered a bearer of sustenance. For the Lira, the sustenance comes from Allah, the presence or absence of Lira in the stall, still Allah has arranged for Mr. Noor.

Since his meeting with the Lira last month, Martin has been increasingly terrorizing Reza with the same questions every day. Reza was caught off guard by the behavior of his father who never tired of asking for a wife.

Like tonight for example, Martin had already raided Reza at the dinner table with the same question.

"Za, how? Is there yet? If not, let papah help nyari!" Goda Martin's. He knew for sure Reza would avoid if asked about the prospective wife.

"What the hell, Pah? Not tired of what, every day nanyain mulu? Upset Reza.

While Irma just kept quiet not to interfere with Reza's affairs. Irma does not care about the future of Reza, only Irma wants Reza to choose his own path. Irma was afraid that if she followed Martin, there would be Reza more and more restrained.

"You promised, Za is the same papah. Don't you forget that! Clearly Martin with a sharp eye.

"Yes Pah, yes! Reza inget, but not now."

Reza left both of his parents. Reza chose to leave instead of continuing to serve Martin's words, then the edges of Reza will be provoked emotions and it will make Reza and Martin had a big fight. Reza chose to avoid that. Reza did not want his respect for his father to be lost just because of a mate problem.

Reza is currently at one of the famous nightclubs in Jakarta. Previously Reza had contacted his best friend to meet at the club.

Reza had been sitting on the couch in the VVIP room waiting for the arrival of his best friend who was on his way. Reza gulped down the drink he had prepared. His gaze led to the door that suddenly opened wide.

"Well, what's up, bro? Tumben met here?" Ask Doni, Reza's dekta's best friend.

Doni sat down next to Reza and took a glass containing a drink, then sipped it.

"Gue again would like to! Bosen at home, every day bokap only nanyain candidates bini mulu!" Reza replied as he continued to gulp down his drink.

"Where does the problem go? Kan Lo just find a candidate bini who fit the same criteria Lo."

Doni Timpal.

"Gue's not ready for marriage, bro. I haven't met a suitable one yet."

"Not met or Lo emang has not been able to move on from the former Lo?" Ask Doni cynically.

Doni knows how Reza feels to Anita, because Doni is the witness to how Reza struggles to get Anita's love. Doni also knows how Reza tried to forget Anita when the woman chose to leave Reza to marry another man.

"Gue doesn't know either, bro. I've tried to forget him, but the more I force it the more I want him to continue." Reza is frustrated when it comes to Anita.

"The woman is indeed magical, can make a cold Reza be as frustrating as this." Think Doni.
