One week later . . .
Alea, who was scheduled to enter the afternoon, just parked his bike in front of the Galaxy store. Along with that, Fahry came out of the Galaxy store.
"Why haven't you been hijabing yet?" ask Fahry ketus.
"Sorry, Bang! not ready!" aela replied as she got off her bike.
"It's hard to wear a veil!" Fahry.
"It's not hard to wear, Bang! it's just that for a girl whose faith is still shaky like mine, keeping the hijab on is hard!" reply Alea.
"Stay guard doang! what hard!" ketus Fahry, "let's say you want to seduce the kids there!" fahry pointed to the workshop as it passed from the Galaxy store parking lot without looking at Alea who was looking at him in wonder.
"That's cheap!" gerutu Fahry who can still be heard by Alea though faint.
Why is he so so so so! teach slowly - slowly dong, Bang! if you want to get Alea! Not always call Alea a laxity, and now in the word cheap is very!
Alea said in his heart.
Just as Alea was about to enter the Galaxy store, Ibram's motor stopped right beside Alea's motorbike.
"Over time doesn't shift with you, Al!" Ibram said as he got off his bike.
"Yes kangen!" exclaim Alea confidently.
"Gapain miss you!" sahut Ibram's.
"Dead answer yes what is difficult!" sahut Alea's.
"Because it's not!" answer Ibram.
They entered into the Galaxy store at the same time. Alea took off his jacket in the barn, so did Ibram. They immediately replaced the morning shift work when the clock showed two o'clock noon.
Time passed, Fahry entered the Galaxy store praying maghrib. Fahry approached Ibram who was standing guard behind the cashier's desk.
"Bram's? where's Alea?" ask Fahry.
"Still praying!" Ibram replied casually.
"Why didn't he pray from earlier?"
"So it's still a rame!" answer Ibram. "You're seriously after Alea?" tanya Ibram.
"actually serious! but he doesn't want to go hijab! so it looks like she's not a girl that can be taken seriously!"
"Don't say anything, Ry!" said Ibram. "It's not that he can't be taken seriously, he just needs guidance!" continued Ibram.
"Udah! but he's defiant!" answer Fahry ketus.
"You're not bound by any relationship other than knowing each other, so how could you possibly have guided Alea properly!"
"You're the same, Bram!" Fahry. "Your girlfriend just doesn't hijab you want! even saturday tomorrow you apply! ogah nglamar before she hijab!" fahry said again.
Ibram felt shunned. Do not accept with a casual greeting Fahry who impressed demeaning.
"God, Ry! don't talk about hijab!" Ibram is trying to control his emotions.
Right said the mechanic! sometimes spicy also sentences that appear from the lips of this man!
Ibram said in his heart.
Ibram chose not to look for problems with Fahry. Although his heart still rumbled with Fahry's words earlier.
It was not long before Alea came out of the warehouse where a small place, specifically for prayer, was available.
"Al, find the tuh!" said Ibram pointed to Fahry who was sitting in the front seat of the Galaxy store.
"Males!" aela replied without a sound.
"Yes!" Ibram said without making a sound.
Even if they make a sound, it will not be heard from outside the store.
"I'll eat first!" Fahry.
"I'm fried noodles!" said Alea handed over 15 thousand money to Ibram.
"OK!" exciting Ibram.
Ibram is out of Galaxy store.
"It's real Alea!" said Ibram to Fahry who was engrossed in his phone.
"Hem!" fahry replied as he turned to Alea who was staring at the computer screen while serving the buyer.
Without talking Fahry actually passed from the Galaxy store. And choose to walk towards the warkop intersection.
"Mang Ale coffee cappucino one!" fahry told the owner of the Warkop.
"Yes, Ry!" sahut Mang Ale Warkop Owner.
"Tremendous bruises are faces!" zaka told Fahry.
"Alea must have refused!" guess Dimas.
"I rejected him!" answer Fahry.
"Remain sure?" sahut Leo's.
"Yes! women don't want to hijab, what to do!" fahry ketus.
"If it's for me!" said Dimas.
"I want to too!" sahut Leo's.
"Remember the boyfriend!" sahut Randi to Leo.
"Make me!" sahut Yoga's.
"Eh, you're still young! find another one! this old-fashioned Kasian!" said Eza who joined the shelter at the warkop.
"Kasian is so me!" gerutu Yoga's.
"See bang Zaka!" eza said, "you're not kasian? he's 29 years old but still single!"
"I don't need a kasiani!" said Zaka.
"Yes yes!" eza Sahut. "Or look at Ardhan! ever since I knew him, he's never been close to a girl!" eza glanced at Ardhan.
"What the hell!" sahut Ardhan's.
"Fahry doesn't want to be with Alea! you're not trying to get close?" ask Eza.
"Still want that Fahry! cut him off if he withdraws from Alea!" reply Ardhan.
"You like him, Dhan?" fahry asked Ardhan.
"Who?"
Ardhan only lifted both shoulders. Responding to Fahry's question.
"Ck!" Fahry was grieving while drinking his cappucino coffee.
Ardhan stood up from his seat, intending to return to the mess.
"How much is my coffee, Mang Ale?" ask Ardhan.
"Five thousand, Dhan!" replied Mang Ale.
"All of you, Mang!" ardhan.
"Eh! I paid for it myself, Dhan!" sahut Zaka's.
"Me too!" eza Sahut.
"All of you, Mang!"
"34 grand, Dhan!" replied Mang Ale.
Ardhan handed over fifty thousand money to Mang Ale. Mang Ale immediately gave his change.
"I am first!" ardhan said to all those who are still in Warkop.
"Thank you, Dhan!" said Zaka and the others.
"Yes!" sahut Ardhan as he passed away from the warkop Mang Ale.
Ardhan returned to the mess on foot. As he almost got near the workshop, Ardhan's eyes turned towards the Galaxy store. And immediately caught the beautiful face of natural Alea who was busy serving the queue of buyers behind the cashier table.
"Tumben's home, Dhan?" randi asked when Ardhan had arrived at the balcony.
"Small, Ran!" ardhan replied half-cuckily.
Ardhan immediately stood on the balcony railing, holding on to the black iron fence. The direction of the balcony directly facing the Galaxy store, also a fairly crowded street that night.
Ardhan's eyes looked at Alea who was looking pretty if he had seen it for too long. Alea's movements in the shop made Ardhan slightly smile thinly.
"Why, Dhan?" asked Randi who saw Ardhan was silent on the iron fence.
"Nothing!" replied Ardhan turning his gaze to the highway.
Randi stood up, approaching where Ardhan was standing. And face the Galaxy store. The atmosphere inside the booth remains visible from the balcony of the mess.
"Beautiful!" randi said seeing Alea who was busy with her work.
"Who?" ask Ardhan.
"You saw him, didn't you?" tanya Randi looked at Ardhan's expression. "Alea!" randi whispers to Ardhan.
"For what?" asked Ardhan while taking out a cigarette and igniting it using a match.
"Don't lie!" sahut Randi's. "It's natural! you are a normal man too!"
"Haha!" Ardhan. "There's just you!" ardha said after spitting cigarette smoke. "You forgot? that girl is Fahry's target!" ardhan.
"It's okay to compete, man!" randi said, "as long as it's healthy!" continued Randi.
Ardhan again smoked his cigarette hearing Randi's words. Then again spouted smoke over his head by putting up an ear, hearing Randi's words.
"I don't really know that girl! but if I see her expression when I talk to Fahry, that girl doesn't like Fahry too much!"
"Don't judge!" ardhan replied with the action of a finger twisting its cigarette and casting its gaze into the star-filled sky.
"Dhan, I can see the motion - which girl likes and which doesn't!" whisky Randi.
"You shaman?" asked Ardhan to look at Randi.
"Ck! you're this!" Randi nudged Ardhan's arm. "See him!" randi pointed at Alea with a chin move.
Ardhan's eyes followed Randi Randi's line of sight.
"The girl is neutral and free but not a wild girl! I know that girl is nice, even though Fahry says her prayers are often perverted!" randi said, "but you should know, Dhan! the woman was guided slowly, not forced as Fahry approached the girl!"
"What does this have to do with you telling me?" asked Ardhan who still saw Alea down there.
"If you don't apply that knowledge to Alea, it will at least be useful for you to approach another girl!"
"Don't talk no no, Ran!" ardhan said he was back smoking.
"Dhan, we've been friends for years!" randy is serious. "We came in here together, 7 years ago! and I never once saw you approach a girl. I know you're normal, Dhan! but why can you never be in a relationship with any girl. Is there a problem with something?" ask Randi to investigate.
"Nothing!" replied Ardhan casually.
"You sure?"
"Related, Ran!" reply Ardhan.
"Are you not lonely?" ask Randi.
"Since my parents died 10 years ago, my life has always been lonely!" ardhan replied while looking at the star-filled sky. It is like the faces of his parents.
"There's no way you're still shackled about losing your parents, right?"
"Come away!" replied Ardhan who was still staring at the sky, sipping his cigarette.
Randi observed Ardhan's face looking flat. Ardhan is sometimes very humorous, but also sometimes looks upset.
Randi looked back at the Galaxy store. And at the same time Alea was turning her head towards the street, and was directly staring at the balcony of the workshop when she realized that someone was standing there.
The look in Randi and Alea's eyes met. Alea singed a friendly smile and slightly lowered her head. Randi also replied.
Realizing Randi's unusual movements, Ardhan who was looking at the sky turned to Randi and followed Randi's gaze.
And just then Alea and Ardhan's eyes met. Alea again smiled kindly and slightly lowered her head. Ardhan only replied with a nod and an unusual feeling.
Ardhan turned around, leaning his back and one elbow on the iron fence. While Alea chose to return to activity when Ardhan twisted his body.
