That morning, Nuril was driving at a moderate pace. Tracing the morning streets are quite crowded and then passing vehicles. On his stomach was coiled his wife's hand, which he occasionally rubbed gently as he stopped at a red light. Smile as if reluctant to leave the lips of both.
Arriving at one of the traffic lights, Nuril again stopped the speed of his motorbike, when the lights turned red. The man clasped his wife's hand that was coiled around her stomach. Unaware of what he was doing was being noticed by someone in the car who stopped right next to him.
The man who seemed to harden his face saw Nuril who occasionally spoke with his wife making the woman bring her face closer to the husband. Sometimes they share a laugh together. Harsa, the man sitting behind the wheel, was seen tightening his grip on the steering wheel. Unwillingly, seeing the woman he adored laughing with another man.
Harsa who was about to go to the office finally followed Nuril who was about to take Risda to the tutoring place. Arriving at the tutoring place, it looked still quiet. Lisna and Tama are not yet seen. Risda got off the husband's motorbike. Stretching out his hand to greet Nuril, the man greeted him and as usual Nuril kissed his wife's forehead.
'' Brother immediately departed yes, later Abang picked up, said Nuril while taking a helmet in Risda's hand. The woman seemed to nod.
Not yet Nuril again sat on the motorbike, a car stopped right next to the man parked the motorbike. Harsa got out of the car with a neat suit stellan. Harsa smiled broadly as she looked towards Risda.
'' Morning Ris, '' said Harsa with a big smile, as if not consider the existence of Nuril beside her. Nuril looked towards the voice. A man younger than himself was standing next to the car. A stranger in Nuril's eyes.
'' Assalamualaikum, ''' said Risda while nodding small. Harsa laughed when she realized that she had forgotten to say hello.
'' Wa'alaikumussalam, '' Harsa replied as he stepped closer to Risda who was still standing next to Nuril who was staring warily at the man approaching his wife.
'' Recognize Sa, my husband said Risda introduced the husband to her friend. Nuril smiled as she extended a hand.
'' Nuril ''' the man introduced himself, Harsa welcomed the hand .
'' Harsa, Risda's friend, said Harsa who looked at Nuril with a judging look.
'' Come to work here Mas?, ''' asked Nuril politely.
'' No, just investing. Mas own work where ?,'' asked Harsa still with a judging look from the corner of his eyes.
'' Just odd jobs Mas,'' Nuril replied. Harsa looked to be smiling obliquely.
'' What university graduate?, in my office there is a staff vacancy. Whisper later I enter, said Harsa who sounded arrogant from her tone.
'' It's lucky you get Risda, who is smart, kind and certainly beautiful. High-educated and insightful, Harsa praised, Risda seemed to refrain from exploding on the man. Nuril still put a smile on her lips, while replying.
'' Of course, I am a very lucky person to get Risda to be my companion, Nuril said as she embraced the wife's shoulder and looked at her lovingly.
Risda smiled gently welcoming the husband by wrapping her hands around the man's waist. And returned her husband's gaze with a longing look.
'' And I'm more fortunate, to have a priest like bang Nuril. The man in charge, who has an extraordinary character and knows to put himself, '' Risda told, Harsa who saw the scene before him made his own heat.
Harsa's intention to drop Nuril turned out to make himself hot. Harsa's breath was up and down with a reddened face. The man held back his anger that was ready to explode.
Nuril held up one hand, looking at the clock embedded in the wrist.
'' Honey, brother left first, it was noon, '' said Nuril who then pinned a kiss on the temple of the wife. Harsa who saw it could only clench her hands with a hardened face. It looks like the man turned his face, too sickening the scene that was deliberately displayed by the couple.
'' Yes, be careful, '' said Risda by releasing his hand that was coiled around the waist of the husband.
'' Yes, adek also be careful, do not be naughty, '' said Nuril, his finger swish the nose of his wife's nose.
'' Assalamualaikum, ''' continued Nuril while riding on the motorbike and start to turn on the engine of the motor.
'' Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, '' replied Risda who then waved her hand, as her husband drove away from the parking area where les.
Harsa could only smile wryly, there was no more blame for her entering Risda's life. Maybe it's time to give up. But he doesn't feel ready. How could he who incidentally younger, richer, and good looks were not less distant with Nuril, had to lose in getting a Risda.
'' I entered first Sa, '' Risda's voice resuscitated Harsa who was wandering in her own mind.
'' Yes, I also want to go straight to work, said the man with a smile. Risda simply nodded then stepped away leaving Harsa still staring at Risda's back which was getting further away from where she was standing.
'' What do you see from Nuril ,Ris ?,'' asked Harsa who felt unwilling to lose to a Nuril.
