LOVE STRATA 1

CS1 Meli Return

Cold weather pierces the bones. Meli put together a sweater that was deliberately worn as soon as she got off the train. Views are circulated in all directions in the parking area. Looks lonely, because it is approaching half-four in the morning. There were only a few passengers on the train that had gone down with him.

"Meli," call someone.

The look on Meli's face immediately brightened upon seeing the father. Little Meli ran up to him, said hello, then kissed the back of his hand.

Breaking through the cold of the morning air, Meli was rammed by a motorbike by her father. His cheeks felt cold, his jaw was also a little stiff due to the cold air. Successfully holding it, now Meli arrived home. The mother who was waiting for her presence.

"Cold, huh? I'll make you some warm tea first, yeah." Fatimah went straight to the kitchen after welcoming the princess.

"Adit, how are you waking up at this hour? Tumben?" Search Meli on Adit.

"Start training qiyamul lail, Ma'am. Kan Mbak Meli who often talks about Adit. Start istiqomah, nih!" terang Adit's.

After welcoming the arrival of Meli, Adit who is still in high school immediately went to his room. Adit was about to start memorizing his short letter while waiting for dawn.

Meli smiled at Adit who was like her own biological sister. To the room for a while, Meli put her things and then returned to sit with her father and mother.

"Drink first. Let it be warm" Fatimah commanded.

Small nods created. Sipping tea made by the mother. The warmth warms the body.

"Daddy want to go straight to the market after this?" ask Meli.

"Yes. After the dawn prayer. How's Nak Azka's eyes?" Roni wants to know.

"Alhamdulillaah is stable. Hopefully it will continue to improve. Oh yes, there is a greeting from Mas Azka," said Meli.

Roni and Fatimah welcomed the greeting happily. Although only met a few times, but Azka has been labeled as a handsome son-in-law who can be relied upon.

"Son Azka what's more handsome?" ask Roni.

"The knowledge of your father Nduk, idolizing the ghost," said Fatimah.

"Eh, don't get me wrong. However, we should be proud to have a ghost like Nak Azka. It's handsome, too." Roni continues to boast of her son-in-law.

Lips Meli manyun. He was not left thinking with his father's pride. She should be the one who is proud to have a husband like Azka.

"Sir, get ready for dawn prayers, gih!" fatimah's Advice to Meli.

Roni calls Adit and takes him to the mosque. As soon as the father left, Meli whispered to the mother.

"Buy again obstacles, Mom. So do not pray," whispered Meli.

Fatimah was a little surprised to hear that. It is not about Meli who is having monthly guests, but Fatimah is aware that her daughter has not been able to enjoy the delicious sunnah worship with her husband. At once Fatimah's lips gave a smile.

"Son Azka was less fortunate," muttered Fatimah who turned out to be heard by Meli.

"Ah this mother. Azka is okay, though. Azka is an understanding husband. Meli has even been given a living born," explained Meli followed by a short story about the ATM card given by Azka.

"Alhamdulillaah then. Use it as best as possible. You should be grateful to have a husband like Nak Azka. I pray that the inner living is soon given as well. You must not refuse if the time comes" Fatimah advised her daughter.

Meli's cheeks meet. Who would refuse. I am also willing if Mas Azka asks for it, Inner Meli. A soft laugh followed later.

"Then get some rest. A moment is okay. Let it be later when the lecture his face is not tangled like this," advises Fatimah.

Meli nodded. He rushed to his room. After washing his face and a little bit of self-cleaning, Meli put down his body. It feels comfortable, because while on the train Meli can not fall asleep properly. The feeling is not good. His feet are also broken.

Slowly attacking. Before her consciousness disappeared, Meli took the time to send a message to her husband. Told him that he had arrived safely with nothing less.

"I'm sleepy" said Meli.

Smartphone regardless of hand. Meli began to enter the dreamland. The figure depicted in his dream. Azka, the beloved husband.

Unintentionally, Meli slept for so long. At first Fatimah let her daughter sleep. Until then Fatimah to the kitchen, busy struggling with cake batters. Fatimah forgot to wake Meli.

Debug it!

Meli fell out of her bed. I don't know what Meli dreamed until she fell.

"Eeeem, Mas Azka. Meli fell down," whined Meli as she rubbed her eyes slowly.

His eyes blinked, looking at the needle on the wall clock. Instantly his eyeballs were rounded.

"Astaghfirullah's. Half an hour to go to college!" Meli panic.

Duck bath. Gamis without a pick. Bag grabbed and greeeeeeng, Meli left for college after saying hurry to the mother.

Although it was nearing too late, Meli tried to calm down while driving. Not to speed. However, after the motorbike was parked neatly in the campus parking lot, Meli again panicked and ran towards the classroom. Meli grasps her smartphone tightly while running small towards the classroom.

Sloppy. Deli sloppy. He nudged someone's shoulder as he ran. The person who was accidentally nudged by Meli was Dika. At that time Dika suddenly turned back and did not know there was also Meli running behind him.

Print it!

Smartphone Meli regardless of the grip. Falling hit the tile with a bang. Mimik Meli's face immediately riled knowing the screen cracked. There was no sign that the phone would be switched on.

Anjani who just happened to come and see the incident immediately approached Meli.

"Oh Madame Azka. How can this be, anyway?" Anjani looks at the broken Meli smartphone.

"Anjani, my HP is broken!" moaning Meli while advancing her lips, funny.

"Mel, sorry. Later I will replace your HP," said Dika not feeling good.

"No need, Brother. It's also my fault for running in a hurry." Meli lamented.

Meli looked at her smartphone that could not turn on. Suddenly Meli worries about not being able to communicate with Azka. Reply message from Azka had not been checked because Meli immediately fell asleep this morning.

"Wait, how are you guys relaxing anyway? Aren't we late for class?" Meli.

"Tag? College's still half an hour away, Mel. Here, take a look!" Anjani pointed to the digital clock on her phone.

Meli seemed to not believe what she saw. Anjani's right. They're not late. The school will start in half an hour.

Anjani calms Meli. While Dika who felt bad immediately promised to replace the HP Meli. Still refusing, Meli does not want Dika to replace. After a long debate, Dika finally relented.

"We go to class first. We'll think about this later. Yuk!" Anjani pulls Meli's arm slowly.

Meli followed Anjani's steps with gontai steps. Fortunately the morning course was filled by Mr. Koko who was famous for being reliable to melt the classroom atmosphere so that students were fully concentrated to pay attention to it. Meli's focus was immediately distracted by the course. Pak Koko's college courses stole his attention. However, once the class was over, Meli again remembered the condition of her smartphone.

Dika pamit first to the shophouse. Meli and Anjani promised to follow soon.

"Mel, your face condition first, gih. Funny, you know!" Anjani patted his best friend's cheek softly.

"Udah wants to cry gini is funny. Anjani is so evil, anyway!" meli protests are getting stifling.

"Cup-cup-cup. Don't cry anyway. Madame Azka baperan gini." Anjani tried to cheer up.

As soon as the name Azka was called, Meli immediately remembered the birth of her living. Meli's movement was so agile to invite Anjani to the nearest ATM machine. Anjani according to him, and drove Meli by first taking each motorbike.

ATM card inserted. Type PIN invites its own melodious swish. Meli instantly remembered the date of her marriage to Azka.

"M-mas Azka why give Meli so much!" Meli was immediately shocked at the same time moved to see the nominal rupiah listed.

After saying basmallah, Meli withdraw cash enough to buy a smartphone. In fact, the ATM balance is still a lot.

"Anterin buy HP, huh?" Meli cheerfully invites Anjani.

"Money enough?" ask Anjani.

"Alhamdulillah. The birth of Mas Azka was quite enough. Later I want to apologize and say about my carelessness," said Meli. There is a bad taste in my heart. However, Meli is confident that her husband will understand.

After getting a new smartphone, Anjani and Meli head to the shophouse. Deliberately Meli did not buy a smartphone that is too expensive, because Meli prioritizes function rather than style.

"Just remember, here. Really Mario will propose to you soon?" ask Meli.

Shamefully Anjani nodded. Smile them. Heart's blossoming.

"God willing this Saturday Mario and his family will propose" Anjani said.

"It's in plain sight, dong. Asty. Can't wait to see you're legit." Meli enthusiastic.

The short chat was done in front of the shophouse. Anjani and Meli had circulated the view to the parking lot, but did not see the Dika motorbike. Though earlier Dika pamit to the shophouse. Surprisingly again, the shophouse was closed and Alenna's car was parked there.

"Astaghfirullah, Mel. I forgot that the shophouse was closed until Mas Rangga's condition recovered. Ah, surely Dika also forgot and now it's back to the cost." Anjani just woke up.

Meli just bobbing heads. Meli knows Anjani. His best friend will be forgetful if there are already things that are being focused. It is likely that Anjani is so focused on his happiness with Mario.

"Indeed Rangga's brother as funny as what, anyway?" Meli suddenly curious.

Anjani himself is confused to explain it, because indeed Rangga's face lost the handsome label because of bruising. Anjani invites Meli to see the condition of Rangga.

"The intention is that I want to talk to Rangga because he has dared to shoot you. Come to think of it again is not so," said Meli.

"Sst. Already, no need. I'm getting married to Mario soon." Anjani.

The first step is to move the SIM card to its new smartphone. Anjani goes upstairs to meet Rangga and Alenna.

How surprised Anjani once reached the top of the stairs. Anjani sees Alenna stroking Rangga's cheek gently, then kiss Rangga's lips one-sidedly. After kissing her, Alenna's face beamed while looking at Rangga who was asleep.

"Alenna," call Anjani.

So surprised Alenna heard Anjani's voice. Alenna immediately got up from her seat and immediately misbehaved.

"A-Anjani's chat. I-I, I was that ..." Alenna confusedly started her words.

"What are you doing Alenna?" anjani asked softly, worrying made Alenna frightened. Anjani.

"Ak-I, I just ..em, low dose. Mas Rangga will soon wake up." Alenna.

"Hi, Alenna." Meli who just went up to the second floor also greeted.

Alenna waved her right hand while grinning the horse.

"Aren't you at the office?" ask Meli while walking closer.

"Yes, it's coming back to the office. I'll go first" said Alenna.

Before leaving, Alenna took the time to whisper in Anjani's ear.

"Please don't mention what I did to Mario. I really support your marriage to my sister" whispered Alenna.

Anjani is confused as to what to respond to. In the end Anjani chose to just nod. Upon seeing Anjani nod, Alenna smiled, thanked him, and went straight from the shophouse.

"Cock beggong?" asked Meli while patting Anjani on the shoulder.

"No, really. Oya, you don't want to call Mas Azka first?" Anjani is trying to find a topic.

"Yes, deh. I'll give you some news first. Oops, something's missing downstairs. Just a minute, yeah." Meli running around down the stairs.

Anjani is confused. Suddenly Anjani hears Rangga delirious.

"Alenna," muttered Rangga, delirious.

The harder Anjani is to decipher all. Rangga was delirious about calling out Alenna's name. While Alenna dared to make Rangga sleep, even dared to kiss him one-sidedly.

"What happened between Rangga and Alenna?" Inner Anjani, shrouded in question marks.
