Next day.
At 4 Shahu Salman woke up, usually the Mother called to wake up for the morning prayer. This time, her father called.
"Yes, Bun! It's I'm awake. Thank you, dear Mother! Emmuahis..."
"Heh. It's Dad! Pack all the kisses! Watch out..."
"I want to pray first, Dad! Assalamu'alaikum."
Before hearing the father's nagging, Salman immediately hung up the phone. Salman went into the bathroom to cleanse himself and ablaze'.
After the prayer, Salman remembered Naila. He took his HP back and dialed Naila's number.
It took a few seconds, and the call was received.
"Hallo!" Naila replied, lazy. His consciousness is not yet full.
"Cash, Nin!"
Hearing the call, Naila rounded her eyes.
"Ha-hallo! Salman?"
"Nindy! You just woke up?Not praying, hem?
"Morning holiday! Where'd you get my HP number?"
"From your HP!"
"Ish, you....!"
"Yes I'm sassy! Sorry are! As my apology, I'll pick you up later."
"No-no! What the hell!"
"You owe me an explanation, Nin! If you still don't want to, let me take you to your class!"
"Forced basis!" Inner Naila.
"Eh, no need! You just wait in the parking lot.
"That's dong! Sorry for disturbing your sleep! What time will I pick you up?"
"Hour 10."
"Well, do you want to go back to sleep or what?"
"Udah can't sleep anymore, want to clean up."
"Okay, then I'll go for a jog! Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikum salutations."
After calling Naila, Salman ran early in the morning around his housing complex.
Naila curled her long hair carelessly. He went to the bathroom washing his face and brushing his teeth. Then he started to clean his room.
Already at 9 am, Naila and Farah are in the class to attend the course. Just one course for today, so they can go home early.
College is finally over. Salman has already sent a chat to Naila. He's waiting in the parking lot.
"You want to go home, Nai? Yuk ngantin!"
"Well, how are you, Far?"
"Why do you seem confused?"
"Salman's coming to pick me up. Threatened last night to pick me up for class if I don't want to be picked up. We're going to the parking lot!"
They walked to the parking lot talking.
"Buskey! It's also a handsome gap!Yes, follow it first! Maybe you'll find a bright spot. Why the hell are you, Nai? I avoid Salman.
"long story! I'll tell you when it's clear."
They are currently in the campus car park. From a fairly close direction, Salman waved to Naila.
"Far, sorry? This time I'm not with you!"
"No pa-pa, Nai! I'd like to go straight home, too. Want to help Mama, later tonight the Safira Mama family wants to go home. If there's anything, don't forget to call me? Hahaha...."
"You think Salman wants to kidnap me, is that it? Yes already! Careful, Far!"
"Ready, sweetheart!"
Naila walked over to where Salman was waiting for her. Naila pissed off putting on her jutek face.
"Nin, don't be blinded in the face! No pantes!"
"What the hell!"
Salman opens the door for Naila. Not wanting to argue, Naila got into the car.
"Come in, princess."
"Mr Salman....!" Caca's voice surprised the two.
"The bully's coming." Inner salman.
"Bang Salman, want an 'ma-na?" Caca's speech was interrupted when he saw Naila already in Salman's car.
"You're leaving, why?"
"Where?"
"Ikuutts...!"
"You're still in college, Ca! Don't even try to skip! Or I report to Alan! Why are you coming to the parking lot at this hour, huh? Aren't you on a motor?"
"It was just a prank."
"Away there! Enter class!"
Salman got into the car. Caca was standing in front of Salman's car.
Tin...
Tin...
Salman honks his car so Caca can leave immediately. Caca Tang was already upset, nrnghent his feet and left the parking lot.
Salman drove his car at a moderate speed. He tuned music to accompany their journey. Today the weather is a little cloudy. Naila did not make a single sound. He did not know where Salman would take him. Apparently the journey is taken quite far. Until Naila finally found a clue to the direction. Looks like he'll be taken to the beach.
"Ehm, Neng's canker sores? How come Daritadi just shut up?"
"No!" Naila replied, briefly.
"I'm sorry, Nin! I'm kind of pushy, 'cause I don't want any misunderstandings between us. After years of not meeting, then just meeting. It really makes me very happy. But when you meet again, why does it feel like you are different. I want to talk to you well. So, I hope you understand." Salman Said.
Naila did not reply to Salman's words. This time he did not know what to answer.
Five minutes later, they reached Indrayanti Beach. After parking his car, Salman took Naila down and entered the beach area. They sit in one of the cafes available there.
"Bak, I ordered two young coconuts with brown bananas!" Said Salman to one of the cafe's waiters.
"Any more, brother?"
"Nin, what else do you want?"
"No, that's enough."
"Enough! that's it, Mommy!"
while waiting for the order to come, Naila took a photo of the beach from her HP. Blue beach water, clear sky. The wind blows. Naila felt a moment of peace.
"Please, Brother."
Naila and Salman drink young coconuts.
"Nin, I won't make small talk. We're not SD kids anymore, so if I got it wrong please tell me! Why are you avoiding me?"
"I just don't want to bother you."
"Why bother? The reason is too ambiguous."
Naila looked at Salman's finger. There was no ring that Salman wore.
"What do you see, Nin?"
"Why don't you wear a ring?"
"What ring?"
"Fiance's ring! Aren't you engaged?"
"Well! A fiancee? Says who?"
"E.. That's, anu!"
"That, anu! That's what I'm talking about, Nin!"
"Read! He said that time. Said you'd come back quickly because you were getting engaged." Naila. She looked down and played the tip of her headscarf.
"Racca... Caca...! The kid likes to tell stories! What do you mean, try!"
Finally Salman told Naila the truth.
"So you avoided, knowing that I was engaged? You don't want to be friends with me anymore, do you?"
"I don't want to be expected by a liar to be close to you, Man!"
"But not because you're hurt, are you?" Said Salman, grinning.
"So, what the hell! Start the resefe!"
"But there's something else I want to ask you, sorry if it's so personal. Why did the college drop your scholarship?"
Naila told me the chronology of the cause of her scholarship was revoked until she finally had to work, but she had not told me about her marriage.
"Nin, your father must understand how you are. Why don't you just tell me?"
"I don't want you to think! It's all messed up, I can't possibly add a burden to Dad!"
"You how? What's going on, Nin?"
"My brother ran away on his wedding day, and I have to be a surrogate bride!"
Jeddaar....
Like being struck by lightning, Salman's heart rumbled.
Seriate.....
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Thank you for your support brother
SEE YOU AGAIN.....
