Mate

Longing

That morning Alif sat at the dinner table staring at a picture of his wife on his phone.

Where are you, honey?

I miss you....

He kept staring at the photo, Today is exactly 2 months already Anisa left it. During that time, she was constantly looking for the whereabouts of Anisa. All his men are deployed to track the whereabouts of Anisa, even the police have also searched, many times he also visited the house of Anisa's parents but the results are nil. Alif really can not help his longing his eyes shed tears, his heart really feels bitter. His phone rang, then,

" Hello Pa?"

" Alif, are you at the office today?"

"Ehm.. I guess Alif didn't go to Pa '''s office today ,"

"Alif, today Papa wants help, Papa there is a sudden meeting to Singapore. Today there is also an important meeting with Buyer from India at 11. Please meet them. Later Papa will ask Papa's secretary to bring you there! " Papa's orders

" But pa.... Today Alif wants to find Anisa....."

" Life... Papa knows you are worried about Anisa, but you cannot be like gini. 2 this month you rarely come to the office. All the affairs in the office become chaotic.. if you keep gini, the company can be messed up..."

" We're sending the police together, let them find Anisa. We also asked our people to find Anisa too, right?"

" Yes pa....."

" Papa knows this is not easy for you...But Papa begs you also to continue living our lives, we will continue to strive and pray....."

" Yes Pa..."

" Okay. You're ready first, just a moment the secretary Papa came to your house. She'll tell you where exactly. understand??" Keep her dad across

" Yes Pa....." Alif took a deep breath and switched off his phone

Soon the phone was back beeping,

" Morning Boss!" Speak from seberanb

" Hmmm.... What's up?" answer's drowning

" What time is it?"

" The Boss 10 o'clock!"

" I have an important meeting at 11. I ask you to monitor the hearing today if there is a quick decision you Call Me. Oh yes ask Rico to accompany you there."

" Yesup Boss! Oh yes Boss there's one more important news..." Alif's face immediately changed hearing Bara's speech

" What's up? Can you meet my wife?"

" Hmm... has not been the Boss. According to My men's Report, there are people who have seen Mbak Anisa passing in the area of the City of Boss, But"

" Okay...good!! At least there has been some progress. Keep looking and looking for more info!!"

" Open Boss, good morning.."

Alif turned off his phone. A slight smile puffed up on his lips.at least, he knew that his wife was still around even though he himself was not sure how she was doing right now. Alif went into his room to prepare

Meanwhile, at the same hour, sitting in the living room of his house waiting for the arrival of the online motorcycle taxi that had been booked earlier. Many times he saw the clock on his phone for fear that he was late to come to the cafe.

" That's a long time!!"

He also opened his social media, he was stunned when he saw his wedding photo there. Suddenly his chest pounded, why in his heart felt a deep longing for alif.

Since her departure from the Police station at that time, Anisa always tried to forget Alif. But it is precisely the very longing that he gets. Plus Alif who continued to look for him at home made his heart feel very guilty. Anisa tries to force herself to forget about alif but her little heart seems to refuse, wanting her to see Alif when her husband comes home looking for her but Anisa undoes her intentions.

The dream stopped when her phone rang, it turned out that the driver of the online motorcycle taxi called her. Anisa rushed out of her house, there was waiting for the motorcycle taxi she ordered. He also took a motorcycle to go to the cafe where he worked
