Almost 9 p.m., Pamungkas drove Binar and Chan home. The boy had been sleeping on Binar's lap not long since the ultimate car began to drive.
Time and again he glanced at the passenger sitting behind him through the dashboard glass. The more he felt, the feeling he had locked tightly in his heart again appeared and made his heart pound.
“Bin?”
“Hm?”
Binar waited for the next sentence, but the man did not continue.
“Why, Mas?”
“Can I propose to you?”
A sentence of completely unexpected questions came out from his mouth.
The surprised binar not playing can only gape. I hope he hears wrong.
“What does Pam mean?”
“Sorry. Because I thought that you were not waiting for any man, so I hope that I still have a chance to improve our relationship.” He said while trying to focus on the road.
“If you say that just because you're afraid your relationship and Chan is far away, you don't have to worry, Mom. Because at any time, I will never forbid you to meet Chan. We can make time for him. And I'll assume that you never talked like that.” There is a tone of decisiveness from the voice of Binar.
They choose silence. That's not what it means. But it's okay if it turns out that Binar means it so. Maybe he was in too much of a hurry to say it to the point of making the girl misunderstand.
“Sorry yes, Bin. I've been slacking off. Don't be awkward, yeah.” Pinta Pamungkas again.
After hearing Binar's assertiveness, he did not want to continue the conversation about the feeling any further. He will wait. Waiting for confidence in his own heart. Before he was ready to fight for the Bar. Even though he felt it wasn't easy.
Arriving home, it turns out that Ustadz Syuhada and his wife are waiting for their arrival.
“Assalamu’alaikum.” Sapa Binar's.
“Wa’alaikum salam.” Answer his parents. Rukayah immediately greeted them. “Home home, Nduk?”
“Iya, Buk.”
“Come, log in first, son Pam.” Take Rukayah.
“No need, Buk. Thanks though. But I have to go home. It's also malem. I'm here tomorrow to pick up Chan. She said she'd like to stay at Grandpa's house tomorrow with her Grandma.” Absolutely.
“Ooh, so. Judekah. Careful on the road.”
“Excuse me home first, Mr. Ustadz, Ibuk. Assalamu’alaikum.”
“Wa’alikum salam.”
Binar only delivered the departure of Pamungkas with his gaze alone. He was still disturbed by the last words.
After the car disappeared from his sight, he went into the room to put chan to sleep. After that he came back out.
“Why Pam is not invited to enter first, Buk?” Ustadz asked Shuhada to his wife.
“Udah I asked, but he did not want to. Must be able to go home he said.”
“Where was it, Nduk?” Tanya Ustadz Shuhada's.
“How-to, Dad. Ordinary aja. Chan was instantly familiar with them. Binar to wonder. Not usually the kid is so.”
“Alhamdulillah if everything is smooth. You're all right, Nduk?”
“Insha Allah, Well. Dinar is fine.”
“Has sincerely yes, Nduk. Because all of this must have been outlined by God. She points the way for chan to meet his biological father.”
“Iya, Dad. Binar. Insha Allah Binar did not mind if Mas Pam wanted to meet Chan whenever she wanted. Most importantly, Chan still lives with Binar.”
“Tadi nak Ubay dateng, nyariin you same Chan.” Rukayah suddenly said.
“Tau know.”
“Terus ibuk says what?” Search Binars
“Ya mom said that you went with Nak Pamungkas. He looked very surprised. Ibuk had no choice but to tell him everything.”
“So Ibuk tell us about Chan and Pam, Buk?”
“Ya how else. I don't want him to misunderstand you. You are ready to receive him.”
The rain is getting more and more unpleasant. Somehow if he felt that there would be new problems arising between them.
He's speechless. Setting feelings is not as easy as he thought. In his mind continued to appear about the last words earlier. While he had to keep his promise to both parents to give him a month so that he could establish the heart to accept Ubay.
And now, the Ultimate reappeared in the midst of his heartbreak. Making the position of Binar even more difficult.
“Why, Nduk?” Tanya Ustadz Shuhada's. He could read the face of his daughter who was thinking about many things.
“Nothing, Dad. Dinar in first yes, Well, Buk.” Pamit Binar then went into his room.
He walked over to the bed where Chan was sleeping. Her blanket was already knocked out of her body. So Binar fixed her son's blanket and then kissed his forehead.
Then he went into the bathroom to get water. Then perform sunah 2 rakaat. It was the only way for his mind to calm down. Complaining to the Creator is the best way to solve problems.
*****
Ubay threw his body on the sofa of his living room. He just got back from the clinic.
His mind drifted as he passed through the house of Binar. He could see Pamungkas and Binar who had just got out of the car.
Rukayah had explained about Chan and Pamungkas earlier when he was there. His heart ached to find that fact. He never thought Chan was the last child. He felt as if Binar and Pamungkas were indeed destined to meet each other.
So, is he destined to constantly give in to his feelings?
Actually, Ubay also felt tired of the uncertainty given by Binar.
No, he didn't blame the girl. From the beginning he had decided to bear all the consequences for his feelings. From the beginning, he knew that Binar had never thought of accepting it. Maybe it's time he let go of Binar and rearranged his feelings from the beginning again. Because he was feeling tired.
Footsteps Bik Las Surprising Ubay. He looked back because he was surprised. “Astaghfirullah hal adzim!” The screech.
Bik Las who was carrying a glass filled with coffee, was surprised. “Yes my goodness, Mas. Why shocked? I'm in shock.” The middle-aged woman protested while stroking her chest.
“Kok bibik is still here?” Ask Ubay. Because usually the maid has been home since 8.
Bik put drinks in front of Ubay. “Nungguin Yeva, Mas. This hour has not come home. Tired of being home alone at night. Drink the coffee, Mas.”
Yeva is the daughter of Bik Las who is still in college. And currently taking the 3rd semester in the civil engineering department.
“Yes, thanks a lot, Bik.” Ubay grabbed the drink that was still puffing the smoke.
Not long after, there was the sound of a motorcycle stopping right in front of Ubay's house. Bik Las knew it was Yeva. He went straight to Ubay to go home.
Ubay back alone. Such conditions are very suitable to make his mind back groaning buana. Pitying the fate of his romance that never went smoothly.
