Denisa Rosaline
Meeting (2)
Aline decides to go straight to the bookstore after parting ways with Prita. Likewise, the owner of a pair of eyes that had been quietly following him.
Arriving, Aline went straight to the area displaying best seller books. He chose randomly, took one, read the resume at a glance, then put back the book which turned out to be less interesting to the girl. Then he took another book, skimmed it and put it down again. So it went on until he found a book that caught his interest. Book with cover titled Qur'an and Science. Look for a similar book whose plastic seal is already open. Then start reading in the corner. Almost all the time Aline shed tears, moved, amazed and amazed at the proof of science in the Qur'an. How is it that so much of modern science that has only been revealed by modern scientists has been written down in the 1400-year-old book if there is no intervention of God in its writing. Truly, he felt that there was only a speck of dust on the face of the earth. All the knowledge he has learned is already contained in the book that Allah sent down to a Prophet who is completely illiterate if not he is a messenger of Allah. And he felt that the education titles owned by him were nothing compared to the knowledge possessed by the man of choice, Muhammad SAW.
"Rosaline? Are you okay? You cry?" asked the owner of a pair of eyes that had been reluctant to switch from him but could not wait any longer to see the young green girl pashmina shed tears and a rush to hold a book. There was worry in his tone.
"Sister Arya? No brother, I was just moved to read this book," said Aline with a hoarse voice typical of people crying, was still as unwilling. Next to her hand was showing off the book she was holding on to the man, and the other hand was still busy wiping the still faithful tears down. It looked. Then she wiped her tears back.
Yes, Arya was the owner of a pair of eyes that had been watching him.
After his tears dried up, he stood up and faced the man who was now also sitting next to him. "I am first, brother. Pay it." Aline walked to the shelf where she found the book, picked up the sealed book and headed for the cashier, as well as the man following her from behind. He took just any business book and took it with him. While walking he took out some red money to pay for the book he held and the book that the girl he still hoped for even though he realized his feelings were unrequited. But Allah is Reversing the hearts of men, nothing is impossible for Him. Just stay with fayakun. Let him hope in the Most One.
When the cashier mentioned the nominal purchase, Arya had first thrust some red money that he had prepared to the cashier. But Aline refused, making the cashier mbak-mbak her overwhelmed face buyers this one. After a long debate, Arya finally won. He also handed over the books he held for payment. Arya asks for one more plastic bag for Aline's book and hands it to the girl. Although Aline has tried hard to refuse, but Arya insisted to pay with the pretext as a sign of the beginning of their friendship. "In addition, if you read this book, I am also part of the reward," Arya persuaded displaying her most beautiful smile. Inevitably Aline can only resignedly accept.
"Thank you for the book, brother."
"Either. It's noon. We pray first yuk!" bring Arya.
Aline was a little confused but did not mind he agreed because the time Dzuhur had entered. Usually, the musholla is still quiet at the beginning of prayer hours like this because most visitors are still busy shopping or enjoying their lunch. They walked hand in hand to the musholla in the mall in silence. From a distance they look like lovers who are snacking.
Arya finished first because his name is also a man, do not use ribet, different from women who must be true hijabnya and powder and all kinds of affairs of women who think complicated.
Arya waited not far from the entrance for the woman, leaning against the glass. As Aline walked out, he waved at the girl. Aline walked over to the man who had been waiting for her. However, it's not polite if he suddenly runs away right?
"Udah finished?" ask Arya base stale.
"Udah, Brother. Oia, where are you going after this?"
"Hm? We eat first yuk, in the cafe," pointed it towards the cafe located on their upper floor.
"I'm waiting for my foster sister, brother. Brother first time. No papa." push it smooth.
"It is better to wait there, while eating than to walk alone. You're the most lazy if you walk alone gini," he said given the habits of his ex-girlfriend.
"Hmmm, yeah. Yuk! But I did treat ya. Brother paid for my book."
"Where, men who come out with money if girls eat. It could collapse my self-esteem if you pay," he chuckled.
"If you don't want to, don't be. Mending me to walk alone."
"Well, crashing. Yes yes. You are the one who deals. But don't mengesel yes if later I percentnya the most expensive menu," joked Arya.
"Can!" aline said loudly, "if you have the heart!" he continued with a volume that was not as tight as before but can still be heard clearly by the tall man.
"Hahahahahhaahah ...." Arya laughed after hearing Aline's last words. "When was that calculation?" she still asked with laughter.
"Huh, Brother Arya long-long nyebelin too huh?"
"Huhahahahahaha ...."
They took an empty table at the cafe. Ordering and waiting. Arya likes to tease Aline. The girl was now more shy than the last they had been.
"Kok so quiet-gini park huh?" chirps Arya. While Aline pretends to be busy with her new book.
"Rousalina!" call Arya.
"Yes?"
"Please don't consider me someone else! Didn't we agree to be friends?"
Aline sighed and then exhaled. "Talk starts seriuuus" he said in his heart. "Sorry, Brother. I feel a little weird walking both the same guy now-now," to be honest.
"Don't be awkward! Don't stay away from me!" Aryan pinta.
Aline nodded. Then he remembered something.
"Sister, can you call me by the name of 'Aline?" he said he was hesitant, but this he needed to say because Arya always called him by the name 'Rosaline'.
"Why?"
"What the hell. Rosaline made me remember when we were together, about the events of that night, and I ended up spraining with Brother." Aline did not tell the real reason, but what he explained just now was also not a lie.
"Okay" Arya replied.
"Kok suddenly found in the gramed earlier huh, sister?"
"Yes, I was looking for a book. Just look around accidentally see you again melek in the corner, hehehehe ...." Arya wasn't lying. Since the beginning of his intention to this mall did want to go to the bookstore, looking for the latest business books.
"That's right, ngeselin long ago huh. I was moved again."
"Who reads what book? So very!"
"Now!" Aline thrust out the book she had torn her plastic seal off.
"The Qur'an and Science." Arya read the title. Then open. "Trus you cry why?"
"You know what?" Aline held her temple with her index finger, her head she tilted to the right, just like a person who was thinking hard.
"You know dong. I was wondering if you were crying because of a book."
"OK okay. So gini, as Arya knew, I was not a religious person. You could say it is far from religion. Boro-boro read this book, pray rarely. Books like this never interest me in the least. Glancing I was reluctant. But that was before. Since the first time I read, I immediately felt restless in the eyes of Allah SWT, even kwaci garbage seems more valuable than me who is a sinner," he explained back in tears.
Arya was silent, pensive with Aline's explanation earlier. Even he felt stupefied.
"Sister! Brother Arya! Yeee, just shut up?" Aline waved her hands in front of Arya's handsome face, making the man wake up from his daydream. "So, what's wrong again? Suddenly it was silent," asked Aline without sin.
"What the hell. Just thinking about it. If you are so good, even though I have to admit you rarely pray, then if you are told to pray the hardest, then the fast is only in the month of Ramadhan, but you're good, you're a good girl. Not doing anything like me. You call yourself a sinner, what am I called?" Arya looks down on the cursed kiss that night that ended with her relationship with the girl in front of her, almost five years ago.
Aline who was upset because of his disgrace in the days of jahiliyah was diabsen one by one by the man who is now his friend became uncomfortable, regretting to have said a sentence that made Arya offended.
Arya raised her face, looked at Aline with a sad face, then nodded.
"We'll discuss another matter, brother! The atmosphere is not good." Aline bluntly.
"Lin, can it be?"
"Can."
"You, since when did it change?" Arya asked as she raised her index finger down towards Aline, a sign that she was asking for a change in the appearance of the girl.
"The whole story, brother. About two years ago. But the point is, God loves me, God loves me. Allah love me the opportunity to know Islam further. God love me peace in this dress. God love me close to those who teach me about religion, the fact that I live in the world. Anyway I am grateful for what I have experienced yesterday and what I have gained to this day."
Arya nodded small.
He tried to make friends with this girl, while continuing to hope for the Creator, put this girl's name in every prayer.
They continue to talk about various topics. From the serious to the dime and Aline several times made Arya laugh, to show various other expressions that the man rarely showed to others, long ago.
Not far from them, two pairs of eyes observed the interaction of two human children of different sexes.
"A long-time Aryan working in AC (short for Atmaja Corp), just this time I saw him laughing so much off, usually let alone laugh a smile aja irit, notch let alone!" said Rendi. "It turns out the iceberg melted just like Aline," he commented enthusiastically.
"She's changed since she came home from Aussy," the Eagle commented, although there was a bit of curiosity seeing the familiarity of the two humans in her heart, and also a bit of a sense, irritated? I don't know, he doesn't want to describe this taste. "He was a warm person. I'm the same as him in High School and we are quite close even though we can not be said to be familiar. From childhood, when my bokap, bokap him and bokap new Ethan pioneered AC, if to the house always take him, or vice versa," Eagle recalled.
"That's the news, huh, Lang?"
"Which news?"
"The same Arya Aline has a relationship?" ask Rendi around.
"Where do I know! Ask the same person there! Mumpung is still in plain sight" replied the Eagle ketus.
"Lu why so suddenly sewot gini?"
"Don't mind people's business!"!reply judes.
"What the hell, lu? Not fun."
"Udah, finish your food. After that I found something," he said.
"Lu why the hell? Suddenly it's wrong. PMS YOU?"
The eagle shouts the head of his best friend who says he is experiencing PMS, "Damn lo, Nyet!"
Rendi and Eagle immediately left the cafe as soon as their lunch was over. While Arya and Aline are still enjoying the food, until a message enters her HP, from Hana.
Hana. : Ma'am Aline, sorry. I still have class until the afternoon. The lecturer asked for a rapel for next week all 😭😭😭
(send)
Aline.: Yes. Gak papa👍
(send)
Hana. : Ma'am still in the mall?

Aline. : Still. If so, go home yes.

Hana. : Yes, Ma'am. Again sorry ya🙏🙏
(send)
Aline.: Yes, no papa. Relax at kal😉
(send)
Hana. : Titi dije yes, Ma'am. Scali again sorry.
(send)
Aline.: God willing. You are also careful.
(send)
Aline then opens the online motorcycle taxi application and makes an order.
"Why, Lin?"
"Huh? My foster sister is not coming. The lecturer asked for rapel until afternoon."
"Ooo ... Keep going, where are you going?"
"I'll go straight home, brother. This is an online message." Just as he finished saying the sentence, his HP rang which turned out to be from the online motorcycle driver he ordered.
"Udah awaited below, Brother," he explained.
"Mas!" Aline called a waiter, asked for a bill and paid for it. He said goodbye to Arya.
Arya who was hoping to take Aline home so upset herself. Then he also left the cafe and walked towards the play area.
