Near ten o'clock at night, Ma, Ken, Riko, and Husen intend to eavesdrop behind the door. Before this they had done, but quickly fled to the front living room because they heard Anjani's cries and cries. After that, they waited for so long that they were finally saturated.
"No sound whatsoever." Riko in the front row gave a whisper code to the people who were in the back row.
"Reverse!" ken orders in a soft voice.
"She again. Stick your ears!" Ma is not ready to go.
This time Riko tried eavesdropping once again, according to Ma's orders. But still, it remains the same. There was no sound in there.
A moment later, Riko shook her head. Code for others to stop eavesdropping.
"Come back!" It was Husen who now whispered, asking back.
Ma half-heartedly went back to the living room. Ken, Riko, and Husen were already sitting in their respective seats. Likewise with Bastian who from Mario came minimal talk. Even while the others eavesdropped, Bastian chose not to follow along.
"Ma, I made you some warm tea, huh?" Riko's attention because she saw Ma was so agitated.
"No need. Ma's not calm it feels." Ma takes Riko's cake and plucks it.
"This. Eat more, Ma. Let's not get nervous." Riko handed me another box of cookies.
Ma did not respond, instead looking at Ken. One code was given to Ken so that he invited Bastian to chat who had been quiet since.
Ken nodded. He understood what Ma had told him. However, what Ken did next was not to start a conversation, but to cram a piece of doughnut into Bastian's mouth.
"More. Eat up!"
Ken continued cramming, until Bastian inevitably had to chew doughnuts that had entered the mouth partially.
"It looks like Mario-Anjani has made up." That's the sentence Bastian said after finishing half the potato doughnut.
"Yape! I agree with you, Bas. Mario must have grasped Anjani's heart again." Ken. with a potato doughnut in hand made the allegations.
Ma seemed relieved to hear the confidence of the two people there. Although he had not seen it himself, but Ma also began to believe that the child and his daughter-in-law had made up.
"Bas brother is so moody, anyway? I don't want them to be better!"
The deg!
Bastian immediately turned his head towards Riko and gave a sharp look. At that instant Riko was aware of what he said. Yeah, well, Riko shouldn't have said that. Clearly his words just offended Bastian.
"Sorry, Brother. I don't mean to say that. Ehe." Riko cangar-cengar.
No longer staring, Bastian chose to turn his eyes and re-soluble in potato donut chewing.
Tacit. That's what they do in the front living room. No more starting a conversation. Some are already sleepy, tired, and do not know what to talk about.
"Sir Ken, please get me my drink cup over there!" Riko's position was indeed a little far from his drinking cup.
"Sana, take it yourself!" Ken's lazy to get it.
"Pak Ken is terrible, anyway. Chanting because I was not honest about Anjani's position, his attitude so ketus that. Yes, sir, sir." Riko was still often polite, even though Ken was no longer an apprentice superior.
"As far as you go, deh. The important thing is now that Mario has met Anjani." Ken is arguing.
Yes, before this there was a small debate in the living room, about Ken yamg hunting for an explanation from Riko for his dishonesty. Fortunately there was Ma. So Riko can explain it easily and occasionally defended by Ma. All for the comfort of Anjani's heart, that's Riko's explanation as the reason.
Soon after, after the potato doughnuts in his grasp were eaten, Bastian pamit to go to the boarding house. Ma offers Bastian a stay at his contract, but Bastian politely refuses. Not to forget, Bastian invited Riko to come with him.
Now, Ken and Hussen are on lease. The sleepy Ma was allowed to enter the room, while Ken and Husen were left to stay the night.
"Ma get me a mat first, yeah!"
"No need, Ma. Sleeping on the sofa. It's comfortable. Ma, please just take a break." Ken invited Ma.
"alright. If you want to make coffee, make it yourself. Don't worry, yeah!"
"Sheep, Ma."
And ... Ma also headed to the room. Ken and Husen left in the rented living room. Ken was about to start a conversation, but when he turned to see that Husen was lying down because of the drowsiness that attacked. Be, Ken's staying awake there.
Not yet want to sleep, Ken also video call Lovey, to give the latest news about Mario-Anjani. Of course, Lovey there until touched to hear the story of Ken about the struggle Mario find Anjani.
"When do you need to go back to Jakarta?" ask Lovey via video call.
"It looks like it's new tomorrow. But look at the situation first, yeah."
"Beb, if Anjani has returned to Jakarta, then I'm sorry, yes." Lovey asked Ken to accompany him.
"My bar-bar wife turned out to be spoiled too, huh. Ask for the company of all." Ken's joking. It was clear he would volunteer to take his wife.
Seen on screen, Lovey pouted while looking away. That is often done every time Ken gave the nickname wife bar-bar. Not without reason Ken gave such a nickname, in addition to wanting to tempt Lovey, the attitude of the wife to him is indeed so brave. Not brave in the sense of fighting against the husband, but more towards daring to act to please the husband. Yeah, that's how Lovey was with Ken.
"Udah ah, don't frown. Sleep there!"
"Jude, deh. You sleep too, yeah. Don't stay up, let his eyes appear." Lovey reminds me of a smile.
"Yes-yes. It was a long time ago, yeah. Good night, Baby. Luv yu!"
"Luv yu too. Your mummy."
As soon as the video call ended, Husen giggled. Apparently he heard a conversation earlier. Immediately the sofa pillow landed stopped the laughter of Husen.
"Who's that??!"
"Guelah's choice of heart! Beloved wife!" Ken PeDe explained.
"Ecieeeee!"
"Sleep! Sleep there! You drive tomorrow, yeah!" exclaim Ken.
Husen simply gave his thumb and then returned to his sleeping position. Soon after, Ken followed her on the sofa to rest her tired body.

"Sir, talk yuk!"
"You're just there!" Bastian is still in his position. Sitting by the window while looking at the starry sky above.
Riko did not force a conversation. All Riko did was wait a while. Give Bastian a chance to calm down.
"Sister, can I say something?" Riko started asking after seeing a change in Bastian's face.
"Tell me, Rik."
"But Brother Bas don't take it personally, huh? Promise?"
Bastian did not answer. He turned his head first, noticed Riko, then agreed to the request.
"Say!" bastian Pinta.
"Sister, the more we grow up, the more we need one heart to settle there."
"meaning?" Bastian immediately replied with a question.
"I mean women. We men need a woman's heart. Well, Brother Bas must know what I mean."
Riko smiled at a glance, while checking the mimicry of Bastian's face.
"Anjani, he's already set his heart for Mr. Mario. As Brother Bas saw. No matter how much they tried, they eventually got back together. Mr. Ken and Mr. Lovey, they've also set hearts. Then I'm .. and Isabel." Riko smiled for a moment as she mentioned Isabel's name.
"So my advice, Brother Bas should immediately choose a heart to settle, and it's not Anjani's heart." Riko was so smart this time.
Bastian knows exactly what Riko is saying. He also knew of a mistake. Loving someone's wife is a mistake. Now, when the heart has intended to forget, Bastian is in trouble.
"Sister Bus is working, earning. Material capital is enough to establish a halal bond with someone."
Riko took another pause. This time there was no joke he made anymore. Riko seriously advises Bastian not to fall again.
"Sister," call Riko.
"Hm?" Bastian.
"Say something, Dong Kak."
"Thank you for your advice, Rick."
That was only Bastian's response to all the wise words that Riko spoke. Yeah, that's all.
Riko himself did not urge Bastian to give more answers. So far Riko has started to memorize the character Bastian. Riko was sure once Bastian's mind calmed down, after which Bastian would respond properly. And .. is right. After fifteen minutes passed in silence, Bastian responded correctly.
"Hopefully Anjani is happy with Mario. With their children." That's what Bastian said after a few minutes of silence.
"So, Brother Bas is already ikhlash now?" Riko fished with questions.
"God willing, Rick."
"Alhamdulillaahafemore. Continue, Brother Bas wants to immediately find a woman's heart to be invited to settle together until old age?"
Bastian laughed lightly. Anxious also saw the enthusiastic-looking Riko questioning.
"I want to wander, Rik. If you live in Jakarta, you will definitely continue to remember the previous feelings."
"Huh? Where to go, brother? So Kak Bas wants to leave work here?"
"That's better, Rik. For work, it can be done. I'm going to go to my best friend's place in Jogja."
"Jogja? Very far away, brother. What if Isabel kangen Kak Bas?"
Bastian laughed even more crisply. Even this time his face looked much more relieved than before.
"Don't you set your heart for my sister, Rik?"
Riko cangar-cengar this time. Not evasive at all.
"Hallow it up, then be happy!"
Bastian's message to Riko was greeted with earnestness. Really, Riko intends to justify, not invite Isabel to date. Getting support from Bastian, of course, Riko will not be wasted.
And ... the night was getting late eroding the heart that was once afraid to die. The heart has been reorganized. The new mission is intended to be realized. Heart to settle, God willing to be ready.
***
Anjani. Gratitude was growing when he found Mario beside him. A smooth snoring was heard, making Anjani's smile spontaneously expand. Anjani knows, raga Mario is tired. Anjani also knew, tucked a sense of happiness in the heart of her husband.
Mario's face was stared at from a close distance. So long Anjani looked, until the smile continued to expand. Mario's face is really handsome.
"Handsome is a test. Same with love and loyalty. Alhamdulillaah, you and I are still destined to be together."
Anjani's mind echoed in gratitude. While smiling, Anjani rubbed Mario's cheek gently. Give her a slow kiss, rub it again, then go back to sleep with loving feelings.
For those of you who already have the heart to settle, be grateful! 💙💙💙
