Life Friend

Episode 36's

Manda entered her room after finishing her lunch. Today he has been on leave of work for up to three days

fore. Tomorrow is her wedding day. The wedding preparations are fully ready. Today Bu Tere asked Manda not to do much.

He laid his body and observed the sky – sky of his room. Tomorrow she will be Niko's wife officially both religiously and nationally. His lips murmured to recite the wedding vows he was about to say during the blessing in front of the altar. His heart was beating irregularly. His eyes are closed now. Focusing his mind to be able to memorize the series of words marriage pledge. Not just memorizing. He began to promise

himself for each of those promises before anyone else listens to him.

For a few days, he only communicated through social media with his girlfriend. Now it is very

longing for her perseverance which tomorrow will officially be her husband. Manda breathed her. He stopped muttering after feeling fluent in memorizing a series of wedding vows. He imagines tomorrow will get the first forehead kiss by a man – men besides Mr. Rendra. He even

I forgot when my dad last kissed her. It looks like when high school graduates. After that he always refused to be kissed by his father because he felt he was an adult.

Manda chuckles amusedly. Still with the position of the body lying on the bed. Enjoy the last day in the room

his favorite was almost 24 years with him. Tomorrow she will have to live with Niko at her home after officially becoming a couple.

Manda was aghast from her bed when she felt a haste in her throat. His eyes were fixed on a sheet

an invitation lying on her dresser. He grabbed the glasses and put them on and picked up an invitation that caught his attention.

Loh, this invitation hasn't arrived at Hose yet. I have to drive him today.

Manda changed clothes and put the invitation into a bag. He exited the room and looked for Ms. Tere

to leave the house for a while but not find it. Mr. Rendra must have left at the office while Mia is still on campus working on her script which is already a semester late.

Manda looks for contact with Hose's name on her phone. Then push the phone button.

"Hello, Shalom Hose!" greet Manda on Hose.

"Hello Manda, what's wrong?" answer Hose. Sounds so happy from his tone.

"Where are you now? I want to see you now" said Manda

"Just get home, need me to pick you up?" tanya Hose offered herself.

"Ah no need, I'm leaving for your house right now huh!"

"Who pretty I am, I wait!"

Manda chose to order a taxi online because he did not want his body stung by the friendly sun. Tick –

tomorrow is her wedding day. He is already familiar with the weather in his city which is very warm and tends to be hot. Will definitely burn his skin let alone the end of this – end of the road is very dense.

Manda was at Hose's residence. After paying for an online taxi, he rushes down and walks towards the main door of Hose's house, his former lover.  It was heard from the front of the television sound and the sound of Hose laughing enjoying a show from the television. Manda enters when she finds out the door is unlocked.

“Heii Manda, Sit Man!” Hose invited Manda on the sofa in the middle room. Hose shrinks the volume of television.

“What do you drink?” tanya Hose was very enthusiastic. He was so happy that Manda would come to visit his house

after a long time they did not meet. Last month I met at the Manda office cafeteria.

“Umh, free deh important do not coffee,” replied Manda smiling friendly. His heart was feeling very good approaching his special day. Manda swerved around.

Tumben was quiet, Ms. Menik and Mr. Sugeng were not seen. Oh yes, maybe Mr. Sugeng is praying Friday.

Not long after, Hose came along with two strawberry juices. Hose gives Manda's glass and one for her.

“Hmm very tasty, this must be you mix pure milk yes,” said Manda praised Hose's artificial juice and spent it instantly as usual every time you drink juice. He would rather spend it

once upon a time. For him it would be unpleasant if too long left exposed to the wind. Also Manda does not want to linger – long. The goal is to just give an invitation and then go back home.

“I won't forget what your favorite is, Manda.”

Manda smiling. He placed his glass on the table beside the sofa where he was sitting. Then take

an invitation to Hose.

“Hose, tomorrow comes yes!” pinta Manda was so gentle with a warm smile on her lips at every corner. Hose's face instantly was a little grim and cold. He put down his glass and opened the invitation.  Hose smiled but there were disappointed strokes on his face.

“Congratulations Manda,” said Hose softly, his hands became cold. It was as if he could not believe that the girl who had been in his life would marry someone else.

“I already said yes Hose,” said to Manda.he got up and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Hose before he left the house.

 “Hose! What are you doing!!!”
