Forgetting to wear a hijab

Irwan stared at Zein with a look of eyes implying indecision of the heart. His mind churned between wanting to hit Rey and her accomplice, or keeping up with Zein's advice to be calm and alert.

"I tried before moving to Jakarta, they have been arrested" Zein said with a face showing seriousness.

"How is it?" ask Irwan.

"Pamanku is arranging a strategy with the Bandung police. Anyway we're asked to pretend we don't know about the plot."

"Do not commit any dangerous acts. Especially there are many of our friends who do not know, about who Rey and her friends," continued Zein.

Irwan.

Their conversation comes to a halt as Rama, Dinar and Triska come to the cafe, where Zein and Irwan are having a meeting.

"Food's been ordered, Zein?" asked Dinar while pulling the chair to the left of Irwan.

"Udah, Ma'am. As per the order via chat earlier," replied Zein. His right hand moved around the back of Triska's hand sitting on his right.

The beautiful woman turned her head and held her fingers back. His eyes looked sad. There's a black line in the eye bag.

"Exit from here, help brother nyari clothes for work, yes. Your taste is good" whispered Zein in Triska's left ear who replied with a nod.

Rama noticed the gestures of his two friends with empathy. He knew how difficult it was to part when the heart was in flower.

In the past, he had felt the same way. Two years in a relationship with his college friends. After work, they have to separate. Rama is in Jakarta, while the woman remains in Semarang.

The beginning of their long distance relationship communication is still smooth and well-established. However, as the quantity of meetings decreased, as well as their respective busyness, eventually their relationship ran aground.

During the turmoil, Rama was transferred to Bandung. Meet Winda, but must hold the heart not to corner Davin, his own friend.

Their orders arrived, they ate food while continuing the conversation.

Triska who was more silent apparently did not escape the attention of Irwan. In his heart he promised to encourage Triska, so as not to be discouraged if later Zein moved.

The footsteps of someone entered the room where Bu Dewi was treated. The young woman who was waiting for her mother suddenly stood up when she saw Rey coming with a pizza box.

"Lu, buy a lot of it? Aira ate it too. Mama too. Who is it that is lying? Lv? Hadeuh!" lamented Hana, a beautiful and somewhat violent young woman.

"Let's go to the nurse. Let it run out quickly" Rey replied as she threw her buttocks onto the sofa.

Aira, the two-year-old boy stood up from the floor and the road approached. His hands were stretched out, asking to be carried.

Rey bowed slightly and lifted the little girl's body, and placed it on her lap.

Aira looked at her with her very clear round eyes. Touching Rey's thin mustache which grew several centi.

The girl laughed amusedly as Rey rubbed a mustache into her arm. The laughter entered Rey's heart.

"Ehm, don't you work?" ask Hana.

"I work nights. Relax," Rey replied as she let down Aira who wanted to play again on the floor.

Hana momentarily stared at Rey before finally beating the attention of her mother, who was slightly moving on the patient's bed.

Meanwhile, in the hospital hallway, Andi and Kris sat waiting while sleepy.

The people in the hallway did not bother them at all. However, their radar is still awake even though it looks asleep.

Andi squinted his eyes when he realized that there were two people who had been watching them since. She pretended to yawn while stretching out her hands, touching Kris's left ear that was soon awakened.

"Wait is two o'clock" whispered Andi.

He walked on and then turned left. Continue to walk to the parking lot. Open the car door with the key it carries. Turn on the engine and walk slowly to the nearest exit from the room.

It wasn't long before Rey and Andi showed up and rushed in. Kris runs the car out of the hospital area while watching through the rearview mirror.

A motor seemed to be chasing. Kris quickly increased the speed of the car and remained focused on driving.

The two vehicles seemed to be chasing until Kris stopped the car on a quiet road.

The car stopped right in front of the car. Andi and Kris are out, while Rey takes the helm and prepares to leave in case of urgent circumstances.

The four people seemed to be speaking seriously. Then Kris came back and knocked on the car glass.

"Boss, wait at the cafe, later tonight. A message from Joe" Kris said.

Rey nodded. Kris gave Andi a code to enter the car.

The two riders left first. Rey turned towards the boarding house.

Some residents were seen gathering in the front room. Rey simply lowered her head and went straight upstairs.

He pulled the suitcase from the top of the closet and filled it with his clothes and some of his gear.

Andi and Kris did the same thing in their room.

The night is getting late. The occupants went into their rooms.

Tia looked at the reflection of her face in the mirror. Feeling a little strange when you see a cloth coming out of the closet door.

He remembered once, always closing his closet neatly after picking up clothes.

Tia stepped up and opened the closet door. His eyes widened when he saw the condition of the closet that was disheveled.

A feeling of fear that began to creep in his heart made him decide to knock on the door of Triska's room.

"Ris," she shrieked in a quivering voice.

"Cunaon?" asked Triska who was rubbing her face with a towel.

Without saying much, Tia immediately pulled Triska's hand and led her into her room.

Triska's eyes glared as she looked at Tia's messy closet. Faintly smelled of jasmine flowers. The two immediately ran outside and entered Triska's room.

Zein was shocked when he saw his phone vibrate and there was a notification of an incoming call from Triska.

"Abang, hunt to my room! It matters!" the girl said before disconnecting the phone.

Zein immediately got out of the bed and ran out. Triska immediately opened the door and pulled him in.

Tia told me withholding the cry of fear. He kept holding on to Triska's arm.

"I checked, yeah. All take your hijab," Zein said as she turned and crossed into Tia's room.

"Fear of forgetting to wear a hijab," complained Tia while patting her forehead. He and Triska peeked out from behind the scattered curtains.

Zein calls Satya and Chandra before entering Tia's room. The two followed Zein from behind.

The flap-haired man massaged the temple when he saw Rima was sitting casually in the front seat of the dressing table.

Satya was flabbergasted before finally being able to calm down. While Chandra looked confused when he saw Zein was nagging in front of the mirror.
