I HAD TO MARRY MY BEST FRIEND

CHAPTER 47

"Do you like the card?" Asked him in a cold tone and without looking at me, as he began to pull the chair behind the dining table. Don't forget the face as usual.

He dropped his tree on the chair. "I'm sorry if the card may not be as you expected, I'm not good at choosing let alone giving gifts." Changed again.

Eh om again curcol what was it said how did I hear he kek again confhat colongan or exactly say honestly?

I also put 2 cups of warm sweet tea on our dining table, after the breakfast menu we have served on our dining table. I sat in my chair facing the om.

"Thank you so much, Lena likes her card. The cards are very good, it turns out that om's taste is quite fashionable and om is quite good at choosing something to make a gift." I'm honest because the cards are really simple but also really elegant and I really like it.

"Thank God if you like it, I initially doubted you'd like the card." He said as he glanced at me.

"What did you choose yourself?" Askaqua.

We also started eating our breakfast, this morning I served breakfast kebab that I made myself yesterday afternoon and I stock some in the freezer for occasional snacks as well as breakfast. Just stay in the cook only in the happy call or teflon that has been heated on the stove flame for a few minutes, then ready to eat.

"Heumm." His answer was short and still into fashion without turning his head towards me.

"But you know where Lena's birthday is?" Actually from last night I was curious about this, after I found a gift and a birthday greeting for me that turned out from the om, my husband.

"That's not a hard thing Alena."

"Yes, obviously, it must be Vera or Mama, or Papa Lena, right?" My cerocos guessed, must be true.

"Without asking them, I know for myself." Said indifferently.

My forehead is wrinkled and my lips are pursed small and my eyes also glanced seriously at the om.

The om glanced at a glance as he said "Why are you astonished so?" With his eyebrows raised next to.

"How come? About sa__"

"Yes, it can be, in every marriage book that we hold each listed the date of birth of each of us there." Cut it down and it's true.

I could only grudge him with the answer, whether this mature man was as careful as I was until he could see his birth date clearly in our marriage book. But I'm sure his concern is not love for me, only his duty as a good husband to his wife.

It's ok I think it's much better because for me love is also not there for him than me, although he is handsome and as quiet as a Korean actor and good. But really I how can he know my date of birth through our marriage book. But I didn't even think I was there to want to know his date of birth.

"But what gift is not too excessive om?"

"Excessive how do you mean, Alena?" His eyes stared at me at the moment.

I chewed my breakfast and said. "Yes it's very expensive, Alena quite know from the brand alone. Moreover, Alena also never wear a watch with a brand and price that expensive. It would be a shame to waste that much money only for women who are not loved even in marriage because of forced."

"Nothing is expensive if I can afford it and it's to please my wife. Part of what should have love first can only give, then for those who come to the birthday event last give gifts to the birthday. Do they have to have love first, then can give gifts." Wow the answer that was unexpected to me, the om said after he sipped his warm tea and put it on the table again.

While I only mutely heard the sentence that was quite long but very hard on me. Silence back as usual only the necessary conversation will happen. That's how we stayed with the point when it was just the two of us.

I chewed my breakfast kebab and glanced at the busy om who was also devouring his kebab, but he ate with a knife and fork. While I just go straight with my bare hands instead of my kebab.

"Om Lena can get permission? Later in the afternoon after returning to college Lena wants to go to the cafe with her friends, Vera also joined." I explained briefly.

"What if there's Vera?" Asked him without looking at me, he was busy with his breakfast.

"I mean om?" Ask me back because I don't understand the question.

"Your friends who will gather all women or there are men too?" Ask back without answering my question and return without looking back at me.

"Yes there are girls and guys are also our genk, it's okay om we just eat-eat anyway while chatting in the cafe. I've never been young." My story is a little upset.

"How many people are you?" The question is always flat and light without looking at the interlocutor, the fashion of the nyebelinnya always tends to appear.

"There are 10 people including Lena." Reply quickly.

"How many men?"

'How come this time bebel very much the om.' Decihku in heart.

"4 people." Answer me again quickly.

The om stopped his chewing and then looked at me. "Have they been at our wedding reception?" What the hell is this om? The gini interrogation cake.

"Yes there is a lot of om, om remember not the right rame-rames at that time they came to the top of our guarantee greeting us even photos with us rame-rame." Terangkatkan.

He just kept quiet without commenting or asking again. We had finished our breakfast session, I got up from my seat took the old breakfast plate piled on top of my used breakfast plate and took it to the kitchen sink not far from our dining table.

Instead of taking my cup and the cup we used to drink warm tea each of us continued like before to take it to the sink then wash it and put it on a special shelf that is right above the front right side wesink. Special shelves for temporary storage of kitchen furniture/cook that has been washed before later put in place each after drying by itself.

After that I approached the om standing some distance from his front. "So how's that ? It's ngizinin, right?" I asked expectantly.

Si om even rose from his seat and stepped out of the dining room that blends with the kitchen. I also stepped out with wide steps.

"Why not answer that?" Sewotku, I'll need answers kasi yes kasi yes no yes.

But I hope that my permission is only to gather barmeg campus friends and that I do not often do it too, then I can not feel for me it is strange.

The om stopped his steps as he was heading towards our room, I reflexively stopped my steps right behind him. He turned around and now we were standing face to face right in front of our door.

"Ok let me, let's not go home for long let alone go home too late. Then you will tell me where and what time you come home. So I'll pick you up." He turned around again and stepped into our room.

I stared for a moment until the om had entered and was no longer seen in front of me.

This afternoon I was with my playmates Vera, Nita, Vienna, Santi, Siska, Handy, Danu, Reno and Suswanto. We had just arrived and gathered at a cafe not too far from campus and like last year we always celebrated our birthdays by alternating treat each other for the birthday.

This time it was my turn to have a birthday so like the previous mutual agreement today on my birthday and date I was the one who bought them my best and funny friends hehe.

Now we have sat in our seats each in 3 tables that we have arranged so that we can stay together to enjoy our order menu later together. Tau himself donk sometimes tables and chairs in the cafe that are medium size even tend to be small with 4 chairs arranged facing each other at the table limit.

"Let's order now donk me udh laper nih, worms in my stomach has been dangdutan nih asked in kasi intake." Celoteh Siska's.

"Sabar no matter what lo Sis see again rame, waiter is also still busy. We just got there." Bacot the Vienna.

"Mas ms..?" I also called the waiter guy who I happened to see was not too busy , let the bacot that had been lafar immediately stopped me.

"Welcome home, mbak and mas-mas. What message, please see." The waiter I called earlier came with a friendly greeting and handed us 2 menu books.

We had ordered our own menu and the waiter left with a previous saying.

"Thank you and please wait for the order to come, excuse me." At the end of the sentence.

"Eh Len the lo husband is not angry you still hangout or hanging out with the cake gini?" Siska began again to be the keponya of all of them is indeed a friend of our whole girl who likes the most kepo and outspoken.

But there is also good, sometimes the talk of him who ceplas-ceplos n bar-bar there is actually also hehe.

"Gue has permission to my husband if I want to go anywhere without him and my husband is already ngizinin origin do not go home at night." Answer me for what it is.

"Means your husband doesn't have a problem donk Len." Santi Timpal.

"Om the Vera turned out to be besides handsome and good tajir again ya." Siska Sahut.

"Fortunate lo Len let om-om but handsome look like a young adult version plusnya again good use. Well it om husband lo kayak aja not a responsibility mehongnya." Continue Vienna.

"Hooh, if not wrong, it's a watch that you can use one of the latest outputs from the Longines Swiss watch brand." Siska does not want to lose join again, and he also knows enough even very popular trends and branded again hist and new.

"Kan lo Len husband if not wrong inget me on the invitation card used to be the same as the title of husband lo SH? So the profession of being a lawyer huh to Hotman-hotman is not it? If yes donk tajir pantes." This time Suswanto participated in this discussion.

Suddenly our order came to our table by two male waiters. After all our orders came two waiters went back, and one of them said. "Good fun." Then he stepped away from us.

"Where's Len?" Now Handy's following kepo.

I nudged the arm of Vera who was sitting right next to me while glancing at them. "Lo leahin deh Ver I laper nih want to directly tancam." My elak is subtle because he is lazy to explain it, afraid of mistakes because I do not know clearly also the business of the om in addition to being a lawyer. But honestly, I am also hungry to eat soon.

"Ih elo Len lakik lo instead I have to clear already the jubir cake I just made." Sewot the Vera, I'm just a horse-grin responding to him.

Vera sucked the tea lemon and tried to start talking again. "Om I do have a SH degree but the exact profession is not a lawyer but a similar advocate also the task n his work but there are several different parts. In addition, my om also has a law firm office in this Jkt and also several businesses both in Jakarta and in Surabaya. Only at first in Surabaya nanganin cases from law firm offices owned by others. The cake is also occasionally my om it is still a case of some in Surabaya. Isn't that Len?" Vera's light was wide at length with at the end of the sentence calling me.

"It's more or less so." I answered origin and so on.

"What business does Elo Len's husband have with Vera?" Siska's nephew.

Vera replied while chewing her food slowly. "Lumayan many of them culinary besides coal."

Yaela I am his wife om elo aja I just found out from elo Ver just beberin.

"Well, daebak." Seru Siska lebay with eyes swipe cake already want to come out that 2 seeds of his eyes.

"Well, really lucky elo Len, let's say om-om but looks like a young cake plus handsome again, but again, fine again. Wanna dong me if there's something so atu again." This time even the Viennese follow the lebay.

"Unfortunately there are no more weks." Suswanto's ejek ended up sticking his tongue out slightly towards Vienna.

"Ren Elo where is his voice?" Excite Siswanto while glancing towards Reno.

Yes Reno even diem aja from earlier seinget I until now have arrived at the cafe too, why children lately I noticed more diemnya.

Somewhere else.

"Assynolajet. My super handsome friend." A greeting came out from the mouth of the handsome man who had just entered into an office room.

"Getishalight." Answer the office owner who is sitting in his singe chair and is struggling with his laptop on his desk.

The handsome man who had just entered the room immediately approached his friend, he also immediately sat his tree in the chair right in front of his friend with the office owner's desk limited.

"How are you doing, Lo Vian? Sorry I just showed up again, I just got to Jakarta last night. Regular from Bali for a few days there's another project I'm there." His speech.

"Alhamdulillah as elo see Za I have improved as ever." Clearly still busy with his laptop not one bit he stared at his friend who was in front of him now.

"There are no guests who can't drink if you can snack too." He nodded while rubbing his neck slowly.

Andra also glanced at the best friend and then again focused on the laptop screen without any 10 fingers stop playing on the laptop keyboard and deep voicenya said.

"Yaela Za elo aja just appeared, yes I have asked my employees to make seger drinks for elo. Elo patient dong." Andra also stopped his activities and immediately grabbed his intercom located not far from his desk and contacted people who could make drinks and deliver them to his study.

A few minutes' delay.

Geck..

Geck..

"Excuse me." One OB person entered the room with a tray containing 1 long glass of milk shark in addition to 1 plate of fries along with sauce sambal and mayonnaise.

The OB placed it on the guest table available in the Andra workspace, because now Andra and Reza his best friend has moved the position of sitting to a sofa that is provided for guests or clients who come into his office work room.

"Thank you, ma'am." Reza said kindly, the OB replied kindly along with the words. "Together sir." He put his body down a bit and stepped out of the room.

"Well, come for Elo Za, please eat." Andra cried flat while Reza responded with a fluffy smile.

"Well gini dong is good enough to odd my sixpack stomach." Kekehnya while plucking french fries and chocolates them into sauce sambal and then devours them slowly.

"So your goal is to stray here just want to ask sajen aja like Za?" Andra's claws then she leaned her back and head against the sofa chart while her right hand sucked in the corner of the sofa's arm and her left hand stretched out over the sofa's head.

Rancid Reza while continuing to eat his offerings aka his snacks. "When did you make Vian's son?"

Andra also turned his head slightly with a frown furrowed towards Reza who was on his left side with the position of his interlocutor was a bit face to face with him.

"What does Za mean?"

"Yes elo already have a Vian chant yes time does not make children, instead of elo marriage with Alena has also been almost a year. Don't want to have children?"

"Yes, I want to know Za, but you know the history of my marriage and Alena."

"Well, what's the connection?" Dahi Reza frowned, astonished by the words of his best friend. "Your virgins are already legitimate, fine-fine, aja dong."

"We don't love each other."

"Haha." Reza's laughter blared in his study.

"Well, why laugh at Za, if something's funny." The look of astonishment and confusion of Andra was clearly printed there.

"It's funny to even know lo Vian." Reza answered still with his laughter, while Andra even more displays the mimic of his astonishment and his confusion.

Reza stopped laughing then sipped his drink for a moment. "Still the age of marriage continues to be halal because of the basis of love, while the status is already halal. Salute me as lo Vian if you can continue to resist the desire elo that when elo already have the status of husband with your legal wife."

"For me love is necessary in doing that kind of relationship Za, and I can't possibly also admit it's the same Alena who also doesn't love me."

"Eh Vian are you sure you don't love Alena or at least like Alena?" Reza paused his words for a moment.

"Elo has been living for almost a year is the same he was during that time elo there is no interest in the same him that every day even every night you are one room even though not ngapaen-ngapaen rather maybe not yet in my opinion."

Andra can only be silent without being able to answer every sentence that Reza said that seemed quite true as well.

"Keep what elo sure Alena there is no sense at all to elo after so long you are with even he who continues to accompany elo when elo is in a coma for almost 2 months, with feelings that could be guilty or something. Try deh elo make sure clearly how the feeling of elo to Alena now, it could be without knowing elo have started to like the same elo wife and vice versa. However, maybe Alena also did not realize or also she was embarrassed to reveal it because she was a woman."

Again Andra can only be silent without being able to answer by continuing to think hard and digest every sentence that his best friend just spoke to him.

"Don't be too indifferent Vian the same feeling lo, ntar if you are late to realize the feeling of elo because too bodo period that there is regret for the rest of your life."

"meaning?" Telisik Andra with a mimic that was so astonished and looked towards Reza's face.

"Yaelah Vian this if you have never been in love continues to be busy with educational affairs and mulu cases, fortunately you are not bald nutmeg in the middle. Alena is beautiful Vian everyone also knows if you see it, logically something beautiful will be many who are interested even like it and may want to have it. Elo time does not realize and does not understand it."

Like a skatmat words that have just been leaked from the mouth of the friend, but Andra does not understand or may not understand even stupid Andra is indeed as if the bodo period of such things. For him, good treatment and responsibility are more important in his marriage than just love.

Moreover, in his mind always assume love may never exist between himself and Alena the wife. Somehow Andra can think like that, as if he never experienced falling in love or something. But Andra has never been in love in her life other than her mother who became her first love and forever in the sense of a child's love for her mother.

Let alone falling in love before it has also been briefly explained that Andra is close to women only she is reluctant, let alone dating never at all. But he is a normal man in general just his focus is always on education and career or his job, to make him forget and no desire to fall in love or just a casual courtship. And that's what makes him also did not want to date let alone date before marriage, because what he knew was dating before marriage was not recommended in Islam.

"Woi Vian has not been mostly contemplating after I chattered a lot today, the movement bagusan as soon as possible. Oya, I unplug first thanks for the offerings." Reza patted Andra slowly and stepped out of Andra's office.

Andra who had just realized could only respond to a small smile at the corner of her lips to the friend and said. "Be careful Za." Reza replied with Deheman. "Heumm." Then it disappeared from behind the door that had now been closed again.
