About A Taste

Forgetting Time

"Not locked the door? It's a shame" Wardah protested when the employee was out.

"It's usually not locked either... But safe-safe. It's so cool to not knock on the door" replied Eza.

Wardah immediately stood up and tidied up her clothes. Don't forget he tidied up the sofa table. There's no way he's gonna let it fall apart. When she finished, Wardah came out of Eza's room to pick up her husband's guests.

Looks like a beautiful woman with a dress shirt with knee-length pants. It is obvious that this woman is a career woman. But Wardah was stunned for a moment, as if he was no stranger to seeing the woman's face.

"Wardah? Oye! You forgot about me?" said the woman clasped Wardah's hand.

Wardah seemed to think for a moment. But I also found no answer at all. Who is this beautiful woman? Is he his boarding buddy? But it's impossible. Cook off the hijab? Or his college friend? But on the campus also requires hijab. Except those who are non-Muslims.

"Heeyyy, it's Gita! I'm in the Language class, you're in the IPS class" he added.

Wardah again thought hard trying to remember one by one his friends. Language Class? That means he is indeed his boarding friend. Gita, Gita, Gita....

"Huh? Real ones? You're the Gita who's working in the santri journalist room with me?" ask Wardah to make sure.

Aye! He remembered! Gita is his friend broadcast time in the pesantren. She didn't wear the hijab so Wardah can't remember. But his face seems to have changed a lot too. Until he doesn't recognize his own friend.

"Yeah Lhoo! Your face is really baby-face, so I immediately know you," said Gita.

"Haha, Aamiin MasyaAllah... Let's go in first," Wardah invites Gita into Eza's room.

Gita greets Eza first, not forgetting to introduce herself as well. It turns out that this Gita is a model who recommended Eza friends to be a presenter on one of the latest programs of his tv station. She is indeed a model but this time she was recommended to be a presenter by her manager. Gita who graduates Language and Literature certainly has skills towards it. He also studied Communication which made him more confident in his abilities.

"Sorry sir, this Wardah was my friend from school" Gita told Eza.

"Yeah Git, I've been in Jakarta for almost four years. And God willing will continue to stay here with the husband," replied Wardah.

"Are you married? Seriously? Same who? When's? How do I not know?" a series of questions asked by Gita was so shocked.

He repeatedly apologizes to Eza for talking to Wardah. Eza who saw his wife was still meeting kangen with his friend of course did not mind. Wardah looked towards Eza with an affectionate gaze.

"Mas Eza is my husband" replied Wardah.

It was obvious that the Gita was completely shocked. The handsome, dashing man in front of her is Wardah's husband? Gita who incidentally super busy women and often go abroad for her modeling projects make herself not know the news of Indonesia a little more. Gita has known Eza for a long time, but she once knew that the man was married. Even with his own friend.

Eza smiled at Wardah's words. Wardah answers all the questions Gita asks. Up to an hour and a half was up with this familiar rendezvous. Eza leaves the two women to his private room to join Sakha. Because he believes his wife takes a long time to talk to his friend.

"Now it's my turn to ask, sorry before, why did you choose to be a model who had to remove the hijab? As far as I know you used to obey the rules of pesantren" Wardah asked carefully.

"Huuft, I'm more comfortable with myself now Wardah.... Please don't force me to hijab yaah," replied Gita.

"Yeah, I know, you know what's good and what's not. It all depends on yourself, I respect your decision. But if you want the hijab back, I'm very supportive" Wardah said with a sweet smile.

"Oh my God, we talked for a long time, Git, I called Mas Eza first! You have to discuss the employment contract" Wardah continued after seeing his watch.
