Dear, Soul!!

Faiq & Sasa Meeting

The days that Faiq was waiting for finally arrived, the days that made him so excited and made his heart pump faster than usual. His heartbeat almost sounded out due to the nervous feeling that approached him.

Faiq sat in a chair next to the window, taking a place that made it easier for him to monitor Fauzi's arrival with the woman he was waiting for. Indeed, patience could not be present for Faiq himself.

While waiting, Faiq continued to play his phone, sending Fauzi messages about where he was. Occasionally even Faiq pressed his fingers against each other to dampen the nervousness he was currently feeling. A much more pronounced nervousness compared to when he took the exam graduating from his education yesterday.

The best suit she had, she used today to make it look cooler than usual, even though the suit with the best model was nothing compared to his clean white and handsome face. But the face that can steal the attention of the women who cross paths with it, is enveloped by an expression that is not new to the feeling of nervousness that he feels.

Faiq kept staring out, waiting impatiently for Fauzi's arrival, although some of him felt unprepared to meet the woman he had loved in recent years.

Meanwhile, Fauzi who constantly gets messages from Faiq makes his phone continue to get notifications and attract the attention of Salwa.

“What's up?” Salwa asked puzzled as her husband continued to stare at the screen of his cell phone receiving messages from Faiq.

“Ah? Nothing is it?” Fauzi smiled.

“Your phone??”

“Ah this, the person we will meet it sent the location of the meeting place, also the table number where he is sitting now”

“Not have any previous appointment about his meeting place”

“Iya, he sent again maybe make ngingetin aja.”

Salwa just nodded, not blaming the problem of notifications that kept coming in on her husband's phone. Salwa turned back to tell stories with Sasa who walked on the other side. Salwa no longer had any memory of Sasa's whereabouts in her past, which she knew Sasa was the person she had only known these past few days.

Fauzi's sight had already found Faiq's figure as he entered the pre-agreed meeting place, beginning his pretense by pointing to the table number he had previously said, told by the person he wants to meet through the message.

Faiq's heart rumbled as Fauzi's greeting touched his hearing.

“Sorry, you are meant by Mr Fatir?” Tanya Fauzi started her acting, as if this was the first time she had met Faiq.

“Ah Yes.”

Faiq who had agreed with Fauzi's plan regarding those who seemed to not know each other, tried to put on an expression as surprised as possible to see Fauzi who was now standing in front of him.

“Faiq??” Fauzi asked as if to clarify what he was seeing right now. Fauzi purposely fed his voice when he mentioned Faiq's name to attract the attention of Sasa who was standing behind Salwa.

Yes, Fauzi who made clear the mention of the name Faiq was really able to attract the attention of Sasa, Sasa raised his face and confirmed the name that Fauzi just mentioned earlier.

“Fauzi? Ah I've heard your name, but I never thought that Fauzi was you”

“Wah, you should have guessed it. Unlike me who did not hear your name, only mentioned the person who will replace me.” Fauzi said with the acting he tried to be able to deceive Sasa.

“Ah please sit.” Faiq kindly allowed, still not setting his sights on Sasa who he realized was behind Salwa.

Fauzi glanced at Sasa who was standing behind Salwa and seemed to be hiding himself. Fauzi looked at Sasa, as if talking through telepathy, apologizing to Sasa for the unintentional happenings with Faiq's meeting. Sasa just smiled, giving a sign that he understood his condition.

Yes, Fauzi managed to trick Sasa. A bad action, but containing a certain purpose for the good of two friends who he both know still harboring feelings for each other. Efforts made by Fauzi so that the feelings of both can be reduced.

“Anu.. I don't know about this situation, maybe it could be called a reunion or something. Today I came with Salwa, you remember right?”

“Sure, your beloved girlfriend isn't it?”

“Not, she's my wife” replied Fauzi smiling.

“Wah congratulations. Haha this is what if the fight is really complicated, finally now become a couple that hopefully inseparable”

Faiq's tone which instantly turned relaxed made Fauzi slightly surprised. Because they have agreed to speak formal language like someone who is met by work. But, yes, Faiq who already use the relaxed language, making Fauzi finally responded with the same language. It would be a funny conversation if the two language phrases in the chat were different.

“Hehe yes, thank you. And also..” Fauzi purposely exposed himself as if it felt awkward to mention Sasa's whereabouts in their midst.

“Why?” Faiq asked with his pretense, following the plot Fauzi was playing.

“A-I brought another old friend.”

“Nothing, no problem.” Faiq replied smilingly still playing the drama that he had arranged with Fauzi, although his heart was already out of shape after realizing Sasa's existence.

“She Sasa” Fauzi shows herself who seems awkward to mention Sasa's name.

“Si-who??”

“Sasa..” Fauzi answered.

Faiq turned around, looking at the woman who had been hiding behind Salwa. His heart rate was getting tighter, rumbling and almost making him cramped. This was not due to the shock he felt as a result of Sasa's sudden presence. But his feelings are starting to overflow, the feeling of nervousness is exploding and other mixed feelings that he can not describe well.

Feelings that are not much different from Sasa, in a different context. Sasa is so shocked to learn that the person Fauzi will meet today is Faiq, the man who used to be the only one who reigned in his heart, the man he once loved, maybe even until now. There was a lack of preparation for Sasa to meet Faiq suddenly like this.

Sasa did not dare to raise his head to look at the man standing not far from himself whom he knew was Faiq. In contrast to Faiq who did not take his eyes off Sasa at all, looking at the woman he loved unblinkingly and reluctantly averted his eyes.

The woman he loved was now in front of his eyes. The line of face that he so longed for, now plastered real in front of him. Although he had seen it directly and this close, his longing was still stirring. Instead of subsiding, the longing is becoming more and more so and fomulating to be not only satisfied with seeing it, but to want to hug tightly as he used to do a few years ago.

Fauzi who saw this state, only fell silent. Give both time to regulate their feelings and allow them to dissolve in longing which for a while they can only be redeemed through looks and sounds.

Fauzi slowly pulled his wife who had been part of the barrier to Faiq's view on the woman he had loved for years. Salwa simply complied without knowing what was happening.and again, Faiq's feelings grew increasingly anxious to approach Sasa's embrace as his gaze reached Sasa completely.

Yes his feelings that he could only endure for a while now. It was very unethical not when he immediately hugged Sasa at their first meeting.
