HAPPY READING

Arriving inside Pita's house, Jihan unceasingly highlights every corner of Pita's house room. Although not too big but Jihan is sure all the furniture in this house is classy in price.

Pita leads Jihan to one of the rooms she has prepared for Jihan.

"Ji, this is the room. But I'm sorry if the room is cramped because it's like our house. If there's less to say yes."

Jihan nodded. He went into the room that Jihan said was already big. Pita continues to accompany Jihan to arrange her clothes into the closet that has also been prepared by Pita.

"Pit, you've been married for a year, no desire to have children?" Jihan who was curious about the state of Pita who never got pregnant finally asked. Who knows, Pita can not contain.

"We have tried, but all by the power of God. If God doesn't want anything else." Ribbon tried to hold tightness in his chest due to overly sensitive questions. 

Jihan was not the first to ask Pita's current state. Pita is lucky to not have any in-laws, because Danar was already an orphan when he was 17 years old. 

If Pita still has in-laws, Pita believes that the in-laws will continue to terrorize her with similar questions.

"Keep Danar doesn't mind?" 

Wide smiling tape. "No. Bang Danar doesn't mind that there's a way. Oh, how's your relationship with Reza?" 

Suddenly Jihan was silent. Reza was Jihan's lover when she was in college. Even Jihan herself did not know where Reza was after graduation. Reza never showed his nose again until this moment.

"Ji. Sorry if my words offended you. I just want to…."

"It's okay Pit. I don't know where Reza is either. Because from that night on, Reza just disappeared" Jihan said.

After cleaning the room, Pita invites Jihan to cook because Pita is used to eating home cooking as well as Danar who always awaits his wife's cooking.

Throughout the cooking, Jihan hears all the stories of Pita who looks very happy to be married to Danar. Even Pita is willing to become Mualaf in order to unite with Danar.

"So what about your father?" ask Jihan.

"At first my father was very against our relationship especially I knew if I converted. Dad was very angry at that time but, slowly his heart melted can accept Bang Danar well because Bang Danar can make me happy."

Jihan just breathed her heavy breath. He did not expect that Pita would be so determined as to abandon the faith he had brought from birth just for the sake of a Danar. Pita should not have married Danar!

One day Pita spends time with Jihan. Considering Jihan had just arrived, Pita simply invited Jihan to chat inside the house. But for tomorrow Pita will take Jihan around this Gudeg city.

At exactly eight p.m., Danar arrived at his house, greeted by two different people. The ribbon is dressed as usual just with a negligee dressing without makeup and hair only in a regular bun. While Jihan who looks shining with a mini dress makes anyone who looks will be fascinated.

Danar immediately threw away the view from Jihan and chose to immediately approach Pita. 

As usual, Pita immediately kissed Danar's hand. That made Jihan choose to throw away her face. 

After dinner, Pita invites Jihan to join her and Danar to watch television. Pita wants to introduce Jihan closer to her husband so that Jihan can be helped Danar to find a good job.

Jihan constantly steals a glance at Danar, making Pita's husband feel uncomfortable by Jihan's gaze.

"So how's Bang? Can you help Jihan?" ask Pita.

"Honestly, if in the world of Model Abang can not help because you know your own brother does not have friends for the field. But.. But if Jihan wants to work at Caffe Abang which is in the square branch, very fitting because Karina has just resigned," concluded Danar.

"If you are willing, tomorrow you can work" Danar added.

Ha that makes Jihan not misstep again. "Yes, I'm willing."

In the morning according to the agreement last night, Jihan was ready to start working on one of Danar's caffe in Alun Alun. With a span skirt and blouse clothes in white and thin makeup but still look beautiful.

Danar to not wink when seeing the appearance of Jihan is very beautiful according to him at this time rather than the appearance of Pita who only uses negligence as usual. It's a lot different, with Jihan.

"Jihan's nitip bar." Order Pita when Danar wants to take Jihan to caffe.

"Yes definitely. Later if you have arrived there, Brother tell you not to worry about Jihan," said Danar.

Jihan was very flowery feeling at this moment. All this time to be alone with Danar is not easy. At this time, Pita handed herself over to Danar. Jihan would not waste the gap that was already in front of her eyes.

"Pita, I'm leaving first. I hope I stay there!" 

Pita nodded slowly as she watched her best friend and husband ride in the same car. There is no fear or jealousy because Pita really believes in both people. There is no way that Jihan will betray her, nor will Danar.

After their departure, Pita brushed away the worries of her husband and best friend. He returned to his usual routine, tidying up the house.

In the car, Jihan tries to steal a glance at Danar who is still focused on the road. 

"Mas Danar how long has Pita been married?" Jihan pretends to be able to make Danar notice her.

"It's been a year. Why?" Danar is still sniffing against Jihan. But that did not make Jihan desperate.

"Mas Danar still remembers our time... Uh, I mean, Pita, Mas Danar and also I were eating in angkringan near here keep the three of us going, uh it turns out Mas Danar forgot not to pay."  Jihan tries to remind Danar of a long-missed moment.

"Yes, I remember." Danar starts to pull both lines of her lips knot making Jihan feel If Danar is amused by their nostalgia.

"Oh yes, I don't know what I did there. Danar can help me first. I like to be uncomfortable with someone new, Mom."

The car has stopped at the parking lot of a Caffe that is not too big. Being near the city center makes Danar's caffe never empty of visitors. Especially when Danar brought Pita and Pita contributed songs to the visitors but, unfortunately, the show will only be enjoyed once a month. Because Pita never left the house without permission from Danar.

"Yes" Danar answered quickly.

It's been almost a week since Jihan worked at Danar's cafe. And according to Jihan's promise, she will soon find a new place to live because she already has the right job. 

Jihan did not expect if she would immediately get the position of Manager at Caffe Danar considering Jihan is a new employee.

"Ji, are you seriously looking for a contract? This house is big, why not just stay here?" This time Danar feels unwilling if Jihan has to get out of her house.

For one week Jihan had managed to divert Danar's eyes. Even Danar always praised Jihan's beauty rather than praising his own wife.

"But Mas. I don't want to take your shit. I don't feel good about Pita either" Jihan said.

"You moved on just a month ago. Later when we finish the payday we look for a contract near caffe, how?" bargain Danar.

Jihan smiled with satisfaction. "Yes, if Mas Danar doesn't mind, I just say Mas Danar. Yeah it's a saving count." Jihan chuckled as if laughing at Pita who was about to cry when she saw Danar begin to turn away from her.
