The car that Aga was driving was stopping right at the zebra cross dividing line. He circulated his gaze while waiting for the green color of the light traffic to light up. But someone stole his attention down the street. A hijab girl he had met several times was seen busy fixing his motorcycle on the side of the highway.
The green light turns on, Aga immediately releases the clutch pedal in rhythm with stepping on the gas pedal of his car. His vehicle began to accelerate, he turned on the left turnlight, giving directions to the vehicle behind him if he would pull over.
He quickly got out of the car, approached the girl who was squatting and looked desperate to see her matic motorbike.
"Kanaya," said.
The girl looked up and stood in shock at who was approaching her. "Mas Aga?"
"Why?" Aga saw the Kanaya motorbike, there was a package of gifts on the front footrest of the motorbike.
"Suddenly dead, Mas. No starter, it has been helped equally people can not," explained Kanaya.
"You want to go to Sora's?" ask Aga.
Kanaya nodded, her gaze still on her motorbike.
"I want to go there too, just come with me ..," asked Aga.
"The motor? There's no way I'm staying, Mas."
"I will ask my employees for help, he will take care of it ...," replied Aga.
"I don't want to trouble Mas Aga anymore,"
"I made you an offer." Aga pulled out his phone, "Ri, grab my friend's motor that broke down, huh? My shareloc sent in whatsapp."
Aga's thumb was busy on the screen, he also photographed a bookstore behind him and then sent it to someone after it put his phone in his jeans pocket.
He picked up the bag and package of gifts on Kanaya's motorbike and gave it to the girl who was staring at him in confusion and then took Kanaya's motorbike to the bookstore parking lot.
"Mas, pick up this bike? Soon someone will take this bike," Aga told a parking attendant.
"Okay, Mas."
"This is the key." Aga gave the motorbike key as well as a piece of money to the man in the green vest. "I'm dropping it, Mom."
The man smiled broadly, "get well, Mas. Thanks,"he said.
Aga approached Kanaya, "ayo, Nay," asked Aga.
Kanaya nodded, she kept silent and followed Aga's steps towards a black sedan car. The two enter and Aga starts driving.
"Do you mind if you accompany me to stop by to buy presents for his son Sora?" ask Aga.
"May, Mas," Kanaya replied with no objection.
The state of the car returned to silence, Aga focused on driving his car and stopped at a shophouse selling baby equipment and equipment.
They both went inside immediately. The condition of the store is always crowded, besides this the most complete baby supplies and equipment store the price is also quite skewed compared to other places.
Aga and Kanaya go down the hallway after the passage looking for a suitable gift to give to the child of the woman who once filled his heart.
"What do you think I should buy?" ask Aga.
Kanaya is surprised by Aga's question, "so I haven't thought about what to buy?"
Aga shook his head, "I think he's got everything from both his parents and his grandparents. So, I just intend to come and congratulate them. But seeing you bring a gift is not appropriate if I come without bringing a gift too," said Aga.
Kanaya was still flabbergasted, "Can you buy clothes, toiletries, shoes?" Kanaya pointed at some of the shelves around her.
Aga nodded, "thank you for the advice."
"Excuse me, excuse me, you're good!" The scream of the man carrying a large cardboard box over his head from the end of the hall made all the visitors in the hallway rush over.
Unintentionally, the large cardboard touched the items on the shelf. Aga saw the boxes above Kanaya about to fall. "Revelation, Nay!" exclaiming Aga, he approached and protected Kanaya's head with his arms.
Bruk Bruk Bruk Bruk.
"Dwoo, Mom! Why don't you be careful, drop my stuff!" yelled an SPG.
"Sorry, Braaat nih,"
That little commotion just passed.
"Sorry," Aga said as she pulled her arms and body back a step away from Kanaya.
Kanaya is fixated and nervous, of course being too close to a man other than her Abinya makes her heartbeat work faster than usual.
"Nay?"
Naya lifted her head. His gaze met with Aga, he quickly shifted his gaze everywhere, as long as it was not the eyes of the man who had minimal expression.
"Yes, Mum."
Seeing Kanaya's behavior makes Aga join the group, he looks confused too, but he can quickly control himself. "We're there, Nay," take Aga.
Kanaya just nodded her head and followed Aga's steps. Kanaya helps Aga pick out some baby gear items.
After their shopping bags were heavy enough, Aga and Kanaya went to the cashier table. Do not forget Aga took the gift paper and asked the help of the cashier to help him wrap his groceries. But unfortunately his request was rejected because the state of the store is very crowded.
"Nay wrap it up, Mas," Kanaya offered.
Aga nodded.
"Can you borrow the isolation, ma'am? I wrap it in the car, I return it later" Kanaya told the cashier.
"Here, Ma'am."
Kanaya and Aga return to the car with Aga's groceries.
In the car there was no conversation whatsoever, Kanaya was busy wrapping Aga's things as neat as possible. While Aga just silently watched Kanaya's flickering finger.
"May I ask you something, Mommy?" ask Kanaya.
"Yes,"
"The reason Mas Aga returned the invitation to study from Abi at that time was because of Mbak Sora?" ask Kanaya. He was still down, continuing his activities.
"Yes" answered Aga briefly.
Kanaya was silent but a moment later she commented a small smile. "Here you go, my mom." Kanaya raised her face, she was surprised when she saw Aga who was watching her with a gaze that she could not explain.
"I'll give you back the tape first." Aga took the tape on the dashboard of his car then got out.
Kanaya just silently looked at Aga's departure. He stuffed Aga's gift into a plastic bag and placed it on the back bench.
Soon Aga returned and started the engine. Aga and Kanaya quickly put on her seatbelt. After giving the parking fee, Aga drove his vehicle to Almeer's house.

Sora and Almeer sat side by side, their attention only on their son.
"Assalamu'alaikum,"
"Wa'alaikumsalam" Sahut Almeer and Sora.
"Mas Al, Ms. Sora .. sorry, Nay arrived late," he said after shaking hands with Sora.

"Yes, Nay."
Almeer gave Raka to Sora first, then Sora placed it on Kanaya's arm which had already taken a comfortable position to carry.
"Funny yes, Mas ..," Kanaya told the man standing near Almeer. Of course it caught the attention of Sora and Almeer.
"When were you there, Ga?" ask Sora.
"Barusan," answered Aga, he gave Sora two gifts. "From me and Kanaya,"

"You guys, come together?" almeer asked who was actually surprised by Aga's statement.
"I wanted to ask that too" said Sky.
Aga nodded, he placed the gift he was carrying on the empty chair beside Almeer.
Of course Aga's nod left Almeer, Sky and Sora dumbfounded.
"So accidentally met on the street. Mas Aga help the damaged Nay motor. Because our goal is the same, so Nay's in Mas Aga's car." Kanaya explained that there was no misunderstanding.
Almeer and Sky looked at the expressionless man, trying to find the answer they were thinking. But, of course it's not that easy they will get the answer.
"Eat first gih, Nay .. together with the family," he invited Kanaya to go to the buffet table.
While Sky directly sat Aga beside Almeer, the two of them began to intend to investigate Aga.
"You won't find the answer you want" Aga said before Sky and Almeer asked the question. The man stood up and went to greet his family and the Sky family.
***
Almeer and Sora's extended family gathers for the night. Kanaya gathered there because she was close to the Almeer family. He helps whatever there can help, can't sit still.
Without Kanaya noticing, one's pair of cold eyes always followed in his footsteps. It is inevitable if the man who has cold eyes is amazed by the girl who is soft and shahdu. Moreover, when the girl treated the aged Kyai Nur gently and politely.
Kanaya tidied up her belongings, saying goodbye to one by one the families of Sora and Almeer. He had to go home because he didn't want to be home too late.
"Why hurry, it's still not eight, Nay."
"Abi and Ummi have come, so I have to go home soon, Ning Ruby," Kanaya explained to Ruby.
"What's okay? Same with us, huh?" ask Ruby.
"Don't, Ning Ruby. Nay's just coming home to the online motorcycle,"
"But—"
"It's okay. Sorry, Nay said goodbye. Ariston ...,"
"Ma'alikumsalam ...,"
Kanaya did not want to argue with anyone, she left after getting a greeting from the people.
He walked through the streets paving housing while ordering ojek through an application. Suddenly, a car stopped next to him. The left front door opened, Kanaya could see Aga inside.
"Well, I'll take you," ask Aga to make an offer or rather an order.
"I can ride an ojek, Mas." Kanaya shows her phone to Aga.
"Well," force Aga.
Kanaya thought for a moment, but Aga who was impatient opened the car door from the inside, forced Kanaya not to waste her time.
Kanaya got into the car, closed the door and used a seatbelt. And Aga began to drive his vehicle.
About twenty minutes into the awkward and chatless ride, Aga's car came to a standstill in a house he had been to twice.
"My employees will deliver your bike tomorrow" Aga said before Kanaya got out of her car.
"Thank you very much for the help of Mas Aga to me" Kanaya replied.
Aga nodded.
"I'm out first, Mom. Thank you for driving me, Assalamu'alaikum ...,"
"Wa'alaikumsalam,"
Kanaya got out of Aga's car.

Suddenly he took off his seatbelt and opened the door of his car quickly. "Kanaya!" call him, make the blue hooded girl put her hand open the gate of his house.
"Yes, Mom?" ask Kanaya.
Aga approached Kanaya, "there's something I want to ask."
Kanaya nodded.
"Is it hard to lead tahlil?" ask Aga.

Kanaya was surprised and looked at Aga.
"Can I still attend your Abu's lecture?" ask Aga again.
