I heard Adzan's voice humphed each other. I slept all night on the floor because I was tired of going straight to the bathroom to worship and fulfill my obligations.
As usual since returning home Abah I always go to the market to shop for my sales needs as well as the needs of my kitchen. I continue to undergo my food frozen activities because it is again in the gandrungi all circles. After my trip with groceries, I prepared to go teach at a school run by my mother's family. Since I came back here my uncle who is none other than my mother's sister immediately opened the school for kindergarten level and I am the one in charge here.
Days passed as well as my meeting with Malik. From that night on I gave all the affairs of my heart to the true owner, the rightful owner to turn my heart back. I no longer ask to be kept away from him again or the other because I know everything that happened has become a line of provisions that can not be changed.
Done Teaching me to relax in my room, occasionally mocking the green app on my phone for the first time I have a message I have to reply to quickly, because during teaching I do focus myself entirely on children only.
My hand rolled down and I found a message from Hendra my college friend who now lives in Jogja.
"assalamualaikum shof, how are you ?"a short message from Hendra I let go for a moment. I remember that during college in Semarang he was one of the best friends who was ready when I needed help.
Once upon a time when Graduation was over, he met me at my index. His arrival at that time I considered normal because he usually came with other friends but not at that time, he came alone. Yes, none other than his arrival to ask me to be his life companion. I carefully answered the man's request not to offend him. Of course I rejected it subtly on the grounds that I was not ready for marriage and still wanted to develop everything I had. And God willing he understands my situation.
"waalaikumussalam, Alhamdulillah well" I replied
a minute
five minutes
one hour
"Alhamdulillah, shof coincidentally at the end of this month I want to go to Medan for a meeting with my coworkers, can I stop by your house ? " ask Hendra
I whose people are not happy to reject the invitation of friendshipmi can not be evasive anymore, let alone he came all the way from Jogja, my race is no harm as well, he said, not once a week or once a month and even once a year is not necessarily considering the distance we live.
"may, please" I reply and I immediately turn off my phone screen while passing to the kitchen to complete my nugget customer subscription order.
Alhamdulillah since I entered this business during my college little by little I can repay my semester money without having to wait for transfer from Abahku. Slowly I was able to save a little for my future and also the savings of my parents' parents.
This week I intend to visit my brother who is the first to live in the center of Medan. Because these few days I miss my two nieces who are even more adorable. Of course I'm not alone, I take my second brother with his 3 children who are more agile. I also contacted my third sister to join us.
Yes, my mother had four children and all of them were women. My two married sisters live my third brother and I am unmarried. For this reason, I have to go back to this city, there are no friends for Abah and my mother, while my third brother chose the index in Medan because he worked as a teacher there.
On Sunday, I picked up my second brother whose house could be taken thirty minutes from home to immediately slide into the city center which takes an hour drive if it is not jammed. Mother should have come with us but because she had to accompany Abah so she chose to stay.
After arriving at the place we promised to park my car first and then I boyong my nephew who is super active.
After climbing the second floor my eyes caught the figure of the man I knew and the woman next to him who was at the place to eat.
"Jeez Malik"my pekik who was welcomed asked by brother Nadrah
"why"the
Instantly there was a thump in this body and also felt bad in taste. How could he be at the dining place I would go with my brother too.
With a doubtful step I entered this place with a step that I tried to make as usual as possible.
And without guessing my brother who was friends with his brother also came to greet him and we immediately turned our heads.
"Haii you are Malik, his brother Rama" asked Zahra and Malik immediately regretted it
"yes brother, still remember I apparently yes brother, kirain has forgotten" he said
"it's impossible that he's forgotten about you, a handsome guy like this who's forgotten"
Everyone was laughing and I was the only one to sip the juice in front of me.
There was an uncomfortable face from Yunda who was by her side.
"don't you know that Malik's deck is next to our table ? or pretend not to know ? search for Laila
"no brother, right from the entrance I already bothered to bring this active Abay, so do not see the left right" I lie
A moment of awkwardness with this situation.
I'm sure this was just a coincidence meeting him. It's God's way of familiarizing me with unexpected encounters by people in my past.
"Malik sometimes play gih at home with his wife" said brother Zahra who made me choke pungency.
I was allowed to go to the toilet quickly. I don't know what their story goes. When I was about to get out I passed Yunda Malik's lover. His sharp gaze made me round my eyes.
"It's been enough all this time that he tortured himself, for what else you came in his life, I've been struggling to make peace with his situation and you suddenly came back, what do you mean, what do you mean, you want to snatch her away from me after I've sacrificed years of my time trying to get her to forget you and immediately marry me ? he said with excitement.
What ?? marry ?? so until now he's not married, I really didn't expect.
"excuse me if my presence makes you uncomfortable, I really don't intend to take it away from you" I replied
"then why are you appearing before him again" she said again
"i have never once deliberately appeared to him, it was all just a coincidence" I replied again
"and one more thing, you said he tortured himself ? for what ? I feel like I never hurt her" I said
"oohh maybe you forgot, do I have to remind you about your school days, about him expressing his feelings for you ? I think you're a good reminder" he said again
"if you're just talking about the past, I'm sorry I can't, because for me, let it pass, live with our story now, thanks for reminding me not to appear before him, but you should have asked your God for that instead of me because he arranged everything, excuse me" I went out of the toilet and who would have thought Malik was at the door, whether he hears it or not, I don't care. I kept my feet up to my sister who I saw preparing to get out of there.
This day I spend my time for my family who has always been the best support system in my life, the sun goes away with the presence of mega red as a sign of the coming night.
After a full day, we went home to each other.
