Heartbroken mixed with disappointment, Zulfikar left the morning class which happened to be his master lecturer had yet to come. In fact, he had been fooled by Kulsum. Trying to deny the reality, Zulfikar, who is already at home, tries to contact Kulsum, his former lover.
"Hello, who is this?" ask a man across the phone.
"I'm Assagaf. You who? Where's the one with the phone?" ask Zul. "I'm sorry, Gaf" Inner Zul.
"I'm Ardi, the future husband who has a cell phone" replied the man whose name is Ardi.
Degh!! Husband-to-be? What the hell does that mean?
"Darling, who's on the phone?" ask Kulsum to Ardi.
Hearing Kulsum Ummu's voice, Zulfikar immediately decided on the call unilaterally. The man's eyes turned red. What kind of man does Kulsum want? Zulfikri. If money, love and affection do not make Kulsum loyal, then what does the woman want.
Two more years together, spending part of the day together. Many things were sacrificed and all that meant nothing to Kulsum. Sitting on the floor with both legs bent, Zulfikar cried there.
...
"Assalamualaikum" Azahra said a greeting when he was going to enter the house. The foot that is about to step, stops to make sure what is heard by the ear. In the living room, there was crying in it. Curious, Azahra approached to make sure.
"What's wrong with Zul?" mumbled Azahra asked.
Chinese-cheque ...
Door opens. Seeing Zul sipping an alcoholic drink, Azahra immediately went in and took it from Zulfikar's hands.
"Give me!!" pekik Zul who looks angry.
"No, I don't want to" Azahra took a step back.
"Give me! You know, all the trouble that's happened this late because of you!" pekik Zul's. "You ..." Zul's index finger was pointed at Azahra. "You're making me suffer!" the fire frenzy.
"If you allow Kulsum to stay here then none of this will happen. Me and Kulsum won't break up!!" Lirih Zul cried.
"Get out of my room before I make you regret your actions!" Zul pointed his hands and fingers at the door.
With a glazed bead, Azahra came out of Zulfichri's room. Did they really break up because of her? Azahra thought as she moved away.
"Leave the bottle!" pekik Zul's.
Prang !!!
Fractions of shard strewn across the floor. The drinks in it flooded in. Regretting his attitude, Zulfikri shouted as loud as he could.
In the living room, Azahra cried. Every day he tries to be patient. Even though he was angry, he kept him alone. Clash, also the sentence opened his mind wide. He, he's the mastermind of the pain that Zulfikri is feeling. He causes Zulfikri to answer his parents. He caused Zulfikri to fight with Kulsum. Until they both broke up.
"Papa .. I want to go home .." said Azahra between tears. When Mama Aira and Papa Kurniawan returned home, they contacted Papa Giman overseas. Until the next day, he and Zulfikar received a message from Papa Giman. But the message is just a word of advice.
The cry of Azahra paused as the adzan ashar reverberated. Pulling a limped step, Azahra went inside the bathroom. Taking ablution water, performing one's asar prayer.
Praying to heaven, Azahra asked the power, to keep testing her, to give her patience and to make her a strong woman. After praying, Azahra cried again until she fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, time was no longer afternoon, but night. Even he had missed the magrib prayer. Immediately he took ablution, performed the magrib prayer then to the kitchen.
In the next room, Zulfikar pondered in the darkness of the room. The stomach that has not been filled since noon again presents a sound. Moreover, the fragrant aroma from the direction of the kitchen makes Zulfikar powerless to resist hunger. He wanted to feed himself immediately as well as the worms that started thrashing. But ...he's not ready to meet Azahra.
"Sister, I've been putting food on the table. Come out to eat, I will go into the room" said Azahra standing behind the door. Although Zulfikar hated him, he remained devoted to him. Preparing food was not difficult for an Azahra.
Zulfikar did not answer, but he did. Upon hearing Azahra enter his room, Zulfikar got out of bed. Opening the door of the room, the man drew a rare to the kitchen. Opening the hood, he found vegetable stir-fry beans and fried fish and rice. Even the water was on the table.
Holding back hunger since then, made him spend a plate of rice as well as vegetables on the plate. After eating, Zulfikar washes dirty dishes and cleans the table.
Returning to the room, the man took his cell phone on the bed. Turning on the screen, opening the whatsapp app, he scrolls the story there. Of the many who upload stories, only Kulsum stories that he wants to see. However, the MyBe contact name did not upload his activity today. Before turning off the phone screen, Zul took the time to open Azahra upload.
The video, which shows Zahra singing while playing the guitar, caught Zulfikar's attention. Opening one by one Azahra's posts, the man unceasingly stared at the astonishment of the great woman in his wife's status.
In addition to independent, cook, diligent prayer, good at teaching, polite, friendly, melodious voice, Zahra can also play the guitar. Intrigued, Zulfikar searched for the name of Azahra's social media account on Instagram.
"Aviola Azahra" murmured Zulfikar while typing the name in search. A second later, a pretty face wrapped in a headscarf wearing a white hoodie and white jeans, as well as a navi hijab, increasingly makes Zul's fingers can not stand. Soon the man saw the wife's upload.
In fact, Zahra was once a gamis endors from a famous store in North Jakarta. And that was just two months ago. Of the many uploads, there are photos that managed to make Zulfikar look at him for a long time. In the photo, Azahra and Faisal stared at each other. At that time Zahra was still class XI IPA and Faisal class XII IPA. The photo that was taken received a lot of praise. Some even match the two.
"Cis! So this man asked for Azahra's new number" Zulfikar murmured.
The night was getting late, Azahra was asleep while Zulfikar was still watching the video of his wife's upload before they got married. In addition to watching, Zulfikar also often checks the story of Whatsapp, maybe Kulsum is posting something.
Until 4 am, the story of MyBe contact does not exist. "Did Kulsum exclude me? He doesn't usually do stories" Zulfikar murmured.
