"I went back first well, by the way," Melati waved her hand.
"Assynnya!" sindir Zahra's. Makes Melati crybaby for realizing her mistake.
"Hehe, waalaikumsalam!"
...
"Oh my dear, why do you like this malesan, hem?" zahra asked her deflated car.
"Huff where Melati has returned first again," he muttered with a puzzled look.
"What's the problem?"
Sam stopped his car in front of Zahra. And at the same time Zahra replied, he also saw the state of the tire of the girl's car.
"Emm it's okay."
"Let me take you. Later your car, leave it to the repairman."
"No need, I'll call a mechanic here."
Zahra called her mechanic. But alas, the mechanic is heading for another subscription in the opposite direction.
"Hows it? it's late afternoon and it's gonna get darker."
Sam is waiting for Zahra, actually he's grateful Zahra's tires deflated. He could have any hope of driving Zahra.
"All right, thank you."
Inevitably Zahra was forced to hitch a ride on Sam. Today the class finished a bit of a chore. And it's gonna be dark soon. He couldn't have stayed there alone.
"But, what direction are we not opposite?" ask Zahra before getting into the car.
"I also deliver the opposite. Come on!"
Sam lets Zahra into his car.
"Where is your house?"
Sam asked as he continued to focus on the streets.
"Road east of here, just go ahead."
"Oh, what a coincidence, our house is one way."
Sam drives his car while asking about Zahra. Until, he who intends to make small talk, asked something vulnerable for the girl next to him.
"Oh yeah, what do your parents do?"
Sure enough, Sam's question made Zahra speechless.
Sam glanced at Zahra, and waited for his answer. Not yet aware of his mistake.
"I am an orphan" replied Zahra.
"Sorry! my a_ didn't mean to," said Sam quickly.
Zahra did not answer, she chose to look out the window.
"Ahead" said Zahra as her house was seen. And, a moment later, Sam's red sports car pulled over in front of a fairly large and magnificent house.
"Hmm have you always been like this?" sam asked, leaving Zahra confused.
"You mean?"
"You never offered your friend a stop by the house? even if it's just a little talk?"
"Sorry! It's not appropriate for a girl like me to put a man in the house, whereas I just live alone."
Zahra Sam wanted to know more about her. But, he also did not feel too good to ask too many questions at the beginning of their introduction.
"No, I was just kidding. It's late afternoon and I have business. All right, I'll see you tomorrow."
Sam waved his hand at Zahra with his sweet smile. Honey, that smile became a madzir. In fact, until Sam left, Zahra never looked at him. Because Zahra is a Muslim figure who keeps the view of the adam.
...
Zahra entered his house. Every time he came home, he felt his heart empty. There was no one's voice other than his own in such a big house.
Sometimes Zahra felt very envious of others who every time they came home could shout calling their parents or their siblings.
Zahra went into her room, took a shower, prayed and opened her laptop. Then, he wrote while waiting for the next prayer time.
...
When the morning adhan reverberated, Zahra woke up taking ablution and then praying and teaching. That's the lonely girl's routine.
Zahra then went down to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for herself.
"Oh my God, why can I forget that my car is still on campus" murmured Zahra, then he pulled out his phone.
"Mel you stopped by the housewell, yesterday my car tire leaked on campus and I forgot to ask the mechanic to fix it."
Zahra called Melati while walking out. However, he was shocked by the man standing in front of the gate of his house.
"I just got to college" Melati's cry was heard, even by Sam.
Saw Sam waving at him. Zahra turned off the phone unilaterally.
"Ih just turn off, say cake if you want to be picked up," said Melati.
...
"Bareng yuk!"
Sam with his smile greeted Zahra. He deliberately left early so that he could be with the girl in front of him.
Zahra raised her hand. Look at the clock that's circling there. And then he nodded. He could be late if he had to wait for a taxi.
Throughout the journey they kept quiet. Zahra basically does not talk much while Sam is afraid if too much talk Zahra will be uncomfortable with him.
...
Melati who had tried to call back Zahra was surprised to see Sam open the car door for someone who managed to make her flabbergasted.
"Thank you!" Zahra said to Sam.
"Together."
Sam walked first into the campus. Leaving Zahra who was already Melati beside him. Looks like ready to go!
