"Lo who is patient yes, all have been outlined the same above." Alvian patted his best friend's shoulder, only now he can talk to his best friend, because since then his best friend has not been able to talk.
They are currently in the family room of Al's house, after the funeral Alvian participated in his friend's house. He also wants to comfort the suffering that his best friend is feeling.
Al nodded, "Thank you Yan," he replied. Al did not intend to say many words, his heart was still bitter, just a word of thanks that had since come out of his lips.
While the wife is also the same, she is sitting next to her best friend, Nayla. Nayla faithfully accompanied Icha, she worried about the condition of her best friend who had not looked okay since.
"Nay, I'm nothing. If you want to go home with nothing Nay, do not worry about my situation because here also there is my Mama," said Icha Sungkan, he was not good with his friend who has been with him all day.
"I still want to be here, you Cha. Please, let me be here," Nayla pleaded, she really wanted to accompany her best friend.
"Jude, it's up to you,"
Nayla smilingly got such an answer from Icha. He also actually wanted to stay there but he paused considering Icha was married, not single like before.
In the afternoon before Maghrib, Alvian and Nayla resigned, because there were also Icha families, as well as Al's immediate family.

At night Icha had just entered the room after having a conversation with her family and close family. Since she had not seen her husband, she decided to go into the room. Sure enough Al was in the room, he was sitting in front of the dressing table, I don't know what he was doing.
Icha approached her husband who was looking down, not sure what Al was looking at.
Touching the husband's shoulder, Al straightened his head, he turned towards Icha with a smile that seemed forced.
"Do you see what, baby?" icha asked, he looked in front of Al, there was a piece of photo, but Icha did not see clearly the photo because it was covered by Al's hand.
Icha grabbed the photo, a photo of a mother and a boy about ten years old. The late Mama-in-law's house and the husband's photo that looks still cute according to her.
Immediately Icha hugged her husband, rubbing the back of the husband affectionately. Without feeling her tears.
"Do you cry?" al asked, should she be the one crying, right? I don't know why his wife was crying. Al was not willing to cry for the mother because she knew her mother would suffer there if she continued to cry.
Icha wiped her tears, she took off her arms. Looking at the face of the husband who still looks sad there. "I'll be sad if you're still sad like this" she said, cupping her husband's face. A quick peek at his lips and cheeks.
Al shook his head, "I told Mama's departure. Just then I put the watch in the drawer coincidentally found the photo," he explained. Al indeed accidentally found a photo of himself and his late mother, but before his mother left, he did not care for the existence of the photo.
"You're funny when you were a kid, you were excited too, you're fat again not like now, you're also very pretty, Mama" tried to comfort her husband to smile.
Al smiled, indeed in the photo Al looks more contained than at this time. His cheeks also look like mangroves. He took the photo from his wife's hand, put it back in the drawer.
"It was taken anyway," Icha protested, she was not satisfied looking at the childhood photo of the husband.
"I'm ashamed. Now we're sleeping" he said, pulling the wife into bed.
Al tried to eliminate the sadness that hit because he did not want to make his wife feel sadness, it will have an impact on the baby who is in the birth of the wife. Although in truth, there was still sadness in his heart, who would not grieve if he lost a woman who had been pregnant and nurturing him since infancy.

The sadness that emanated on their faces gradually disappeared, Papa who usually went to the tomb earlier than the two of them was now willing to leave together. It seems to have fully revealed the loss of his beloved wife.
Al drove his car at a moderate speed, his loyal wife dudu in the seat next to him. Her father sat in the back alone.
"Darling, we're looking for chicken porridge, yes" said Icha, during the week he did not demand anything, but why this morning he again whined.
"Can. Papa want to come along, do I take you home first?" ask him to Papa.
"Papa also come with nothing, eating chicken porridge seems to be good, Papa has long not eaten it," the Papa deliberately participated, so that Al did not go back and forth.
They are looking for a chicken porridge seller, usually in the area around the city park there is a chicken porridge seller that is quite good, because Al pernak eat there if he is exercising in the park during holidays.
Sure enough, in place subscription Al looks crowded visitors, let alone this Sunday. Many people have breakfast there after finishing their morning workout.
Parked the car close to the porridge seller, then they went down together to get closer to the porridge.
Al ordered three chicken porridge, then sat in the garden chair a little away from the porridge seller.
"Why find a seat so far away?" al asked his wife, because the Papa seemed to be calling someone.
"Here it's softer, away from the crowd as well" replied Icha, looking around the park that looks cool because of the many trees.
"You come here often?" ask Icha, because it looks like the husband memorized this place.
"Yes before we got married" replied Al. He used to be married every week in the morning often come to the park.
"Why have I never been brought here?" ask Icha, because Al never took her to this park.
"Because you don't want to," replied Al casually.
"When did I say that?" al never took her to this park.
"Every Sunday morning do you want if I jog? It just wants to be around the complex, it can also be counted with fingers, right?" al said slightly quipped, "Oh yes, we had once jogged in the park, but not here," he added, he recalled the first time he invited Icha to exercise together.
Icha admitted, it is lazy if invited to exercise let alone jogging, he would jog if around the complex only and not to a distant place.
Icha said, "Yes, yes I forgot," he said.
While busy chatting together, because his father had not finished the phone suddenly there was someone who came to approach the two.
"Hi, how are you two doing?" ask that someone. He smiled kindly at the two.
Seriate....
