Sandy Pov's
Tomorrow's Zein and Mery's wedding. Last night I told Lala I was coming today and I was going to Jakarta in the afternoon.
Alex and I have entered the Jakarta area, the streets have begun to be crowded but still smoothly even slowly. I tried calling Lala's cell phone but couldn't get in touch. I tried many times to answer the operator.
"The number you're going to is off or out of range"
"Call Mery or Zein" Alex gave me advice while focusing on the more congested streets.
I'm calling Mery, missed call. I'll call you again, tut...
"Hello, what's the matter?" Mery answered my call and asked.
"Thank God you finally picked up Big Brother's call, Mer" I breathed a sigh of relief as Mery raised my call, I told him I couldn't reach Nayla.
Mery told me Lala might still be at the mosque where her wedding is tomorrow morning, as a representative of the bride's family to make sure things go smoothly.
Mery gives where the mosque where Lala is currently located. I directed Alex to follow the map directions Mery gave us.
From far away we have seen the mosque building that we are heading. Quite large and has a large yard, green grass stretched to cool the eyes. Alex has driven my vehicle in a parking area that is quite large and can accommodate many four-wheeled vehicles.
It is quite a distance from the parking lot to get to the mosque. But the clean road is filled with flowers on the side of the road and the beautiful scenery makes this step feel pleasant.
Alex and I arrived in front of the mosque. It is necessary to climb some stairs to get into the mosque. Clean and beautiful praise for this mosque. I'm trying to find Lala who might be inside. From the main door I opened my gaze around the mosque, there was no Lala inside.
Someone was seen walking up to me and Alex, maybe he knew we were looking for someone here.
"Sorry sir, how can we help you?" tanyakanya.
"We are looking for my fiancee, the family of the bride-to-be who checks the readiness here" I said as Mery said earlier.
"Nayla huh?"
"Is he right, you know him?"
He nodded and said that he knew Lala very well because they were in school at Junior High. He also said that he and Lala had finished discussing the preparations for tomorrow.
"Nayla was coming home soon, because it will wait for someone from Bandung at his house" he said.
What does Lala mean it's me? He was waiting for me but could not be contacted. Whatdoes thatmean?
"It turns out Nayla is waiting for you fiancee, it's worth wanting to go home quickly" he continued.
I just smiled and thanked him and went out with Alex.
"How now?" ask Alex to me.
"I'll call Lala again" I replied to Alex.
From the main terrace of the mosque, I could see in all directions. Perhaps because the position of this mosque is higher than the street. It seems clear that the vehicle going back and forth on the main street in front of the mosque, seeing on the right there is a place to park the vehicle. There were only three four-wheeled vehicles parked and one of them was mine. Now I look to the left of the mosque.
"Lake" muttered.
I tried to call Lala but still the number could not be reached. Finally I tried to contact Aisyah's mother and according to the story of the mother, Lala has not returned home.
"Where is he? What's on that lake" I asked myself.
"How's it?" ask Alex.
"It's not home yet, it's probably there" I pointed at the lake.
And sure enough, I pointed right at Lala, she was in the lake as I thought. Although from far away but it is very clear that Lala. He was sitting with someone.
Who is the man who was with Lala? I stepped closer to him followed by Allex. They seemed familiar despite keeping a distance still I felt uncomfortable seeing him with other men. They talked about something even though I couldn't hear it.
"Lala" call me.
It was unexpected that as soon as I called her name she immediately ran towards me. Suddenly hugging me tightly, I returned her embrace and she further tightened her embrace.
It's not like he used to be, but I like him. What the hell's going on? What happened to Lala? Hugging him I kept thinking about him.
"Hey, when are you like this" he shouted.
"You have not met for two days, do not make my single soul struggling" he said again while sticking to me and Lala.
Lala let go of his embrace after I kissed the tip of her head, it has become a habit that I do when I meet her.
He pulled me to walk to the place where he was sitting with a man. I saw the man sitting with her standing up and smiling at us.
"Hans, this is Brother Nuno" Lala introduced the man to me.
He stretched out his hand and mentioned his name.
"Nuno" said.
"Sandy" replied to me, replying to his hand.
He's a pretty handsome guy and looks more mature than me. She's almost the same height as me and Alex. His body is strong and strong. Who her?
"Nay, big brother. It's nice to see you again" Nuno said, staring fixedly at Lala.
He said goodbye to Lala, and I saw Lala smiling at him. There was a little bit of curiosity as to who this man was. From the sight of her eyes it was very clear there was more attention on Lala. Although he tried to hide it but I could see the look in his eyes on Lala, not the usual look in friends or friends.
"Sandy is happy to meet you, take Nayla and be happy with her" he said as he said goodbye to me.
"Sure" I replied while nodding and smiling. I try to understand what his words mean. A titip?
"Sister, greetings to Sister Silvia" Lala told her, smiling and leaving us. His smile seemed happy but I could see there was sadness there. I really want to know who he is?
I looked at Lala after Nuno left. I saw that he was silent and his gaze was still on Nuno who was walking away.
"Who?" I asked Lala.
"Sir Nuno" he replied.
Not an answer like this I meant, I knew she was Nuno after we got acquainted, then why did she mention that name again.I thought to myself while looking at Lala.
"Who is he?" ask me again let Lala explain to me.
"Nobody" he answered. And that's not the answer I want either.
I could only sigh slowly not wanting Lala to know that I was disappointed with her answer. Maybe Lala's not ready to share.
"Hans how do you know I'm here?"
The question so reminds me to be mad at him for turning off his phone.
"Why can't your number be reached?" I asked while looking at him.
Lala opened her bag and gave her phone to me. I tried to turn it on by pressing the power button a few times and it was no longer able to turn on.
He knew I would be angry, without saying much he gave an answer with proof. I smiled to myself, all with proof and it was evident the first time I kissed her to prove that she loved me.
"Why smile?" tanyanya while looking at me in wonder.
"It's okay, I was told Mery might be you're still here" I replied.
"And I found you" I called again.
"Let's go home" he asked.
And I saw that she had walked in with Alex leaving me. I had to widen my steps to catch up with him.
"Sir" I said as I ruffled her hair as I was able to equalize my steps with her.
