Bayu was silent staring at his monitor screen. It was intentional for the mother to send him a picture of the girl with a veil.
And soon his phone rang.
" Asalamualaikum!" Sapa Bayu.
" Walaikumsallam, honey. How is she beautiful, right?" Questions that demand an answer.
" Yes Ma, his eyes are good." Answer Bayu honestly.
" What are his eyes?" Mama Venna frowned.
" Ma, the woman you've betrothed me is veiled. How can I see any other part of her body except her eyes?"
" Oh yes, you are right, dear. Em... But today you can meet right?"
It seemed that Bayu was considering he was speechless staring at the item monitor screen for a moment.
" Sufficient means to agree. Ok, this afternoon at the cafe xxxxxxx in front of the gym Mama."
Bayu grunted his sigh deeply and nodded. It was impossible to refuse the orders of my mother. For too long he had always defected from his need to give offspring to his family.
" Argh... Ma, can't just get me a normal woman. Why should women veil? What will my client say? not to mention if we have a party or meeting, banquet, and inauguration. What'd you like?" Bayu monologues staring at the picture of Anisa.
For him, a veiled woman is a woman who must be quiet and languish at home. Maintaining the aurat and honor of the husband. But it was clearly very contrary to him who often held banquet parties or even large-scale meetings with other clients which of course they brought their wives with appropriate clothes.
Bayu still inexhaustible why his mother chose the veiled woman from the look of his eyes is indeed the woman looks beautiful but who knows what is hidden behind her veil.
Don't want to take a headache Bayu just agree. Assuming in silence. to eliminate his fatigue he prefers to visit Andra's room.
Not knocking on the door or whatever it is Bayu directly entered the barge just like that, he did not seem to heed the existence of Andra. Bayu smiled slantingly while Andra replied to him with a pias smile.
" What's up?" Awfully Andra asked. His focus was still on the sheet of paper before him.
Bayu immediately sat down without being invited. For a moment he tried to close his eyes and then re-open and look at Andra deeply.
" Why look at me like that??" Andra wonder.
" Ndra, I want to ask you one thing."
" Yes, what?"
" You've been betrothed to Dinda" Bayu paused.
Andra took a look and closed the file in her hand. "Then?"
"Mama betrothed me to a veiled woman. I was lazy to argue and I chose to go with it in the flow. Do you think my choice is right?"
"Woman veiled?" Andra smiled meaningfully.
"I think you should be thankful a lot. I doubt that if the woman knows how you are doing, will she continue this matchmaking?"
"Yes you're right."
Look back again. Bayu was not a quiet figure as he displayed. Bayu is Casanova. He likes to work with different women.
Indeed, the relationship is not status, but he prefers to buy the services of women at night. This bad habit only Andra knows. It was also accidentally when they did a trip together and there was a woman ja**ng who approached and with his gurgaat Andra knew what they were talking about. Since that day Bayu can no longer cover his baldness from Andra. That's why Andra desperately seeks a way to keep Dinda from getting entangled in Bayu's trap.
" Do you still like that rotten thing?" Ask Andra to make sure.
The baby sits quietly, and loosens the tie." Ahh. I'm kind of hooked."
Andra grunting. " Marry immediately and make your wife the antidote to your poison. Make him your medic."
" Can it be like that?" Bayu put on an innocent face.
" Good God, I can. Go straight home and do it with your wife. I know you're always explosive about unification."
Andra said bluntly.
" Damn!" Bayu squealed and smiled faintly. " At least I'm not the one who's too stingy even for a snack!!" Criticism spicy.
" Argh. yes yes. Praise your own staff that is holy." Ketus Bayu who was upset and then left.
Andra shook her head and chose to resume her work.
...🌷🌷🌷...
Sit in a cafe with a child. A veiled woman waits in one of the cozy corners of the cafe.
Bayu clingukan observed and searched until he found the figure of the woman.
" Anisa isn't?" Ask the doubters.
Annisa nodded. Smiling or not, completely invisible. Only his eyes are visible.
" Ha.. hi..! I am Bayu Bimantara.
" Asalamualaikum!" The woman reminded me.
" Mrsallam!" Bayu bumbling and rubbing his nape that does not itch.
Bayu sat down and talked about many things that are certainly not interesting. Just talking about education, work and busyness.

Dinda is busy taking care of her two children. After returning from Andra's office, Bibi Nur delivered Keanna and Ayman during the afternoon.
"Bi, stay here, right?" Dinda asked with a smile and massaged Keanna who was in her arms.
" Can't Dinda, your uncle is lecturing out of town to meet the invitation of the assembly. So Aunt's cottage set up."
" Oh, Sayange once. There's still so much I want to ask Auntie." He said feeling disappointed.
" Ask now, Auntie there's still 20 minutes left."
" Bi, What is the law if a wife always delays her obligation to meet the inner needs of the husband?" Shamefully asked.
" Mashhallah! So that?" Aunt Nur smiled with relief. " The law is clearly sinful. You already know that. After your relationship is valid in the eyes of religion then you are obliged to meet each other's needs." Answer explains.
" Bi, there's still something going on. In my heart is still always imagined with Mas Keanu. I still can't forget it." Answer Dinda honestly.
Auntie Nur approached and whispered. " Do it with Andra, it's okay if you imagine Keanu still as long as it doesn't come out of your lips."
Dinda averted her ears and glared in disbelief." Can it be like that? is that innocent?"
Aunt nur laughed. " It's not as big a sin to refuse a loving husband's invitation."
" Have you ever been?" The question was full of probing with squinting eyes.
Auntie Nur laughed again. " Non-hypocritical, Aunt is also a normal human being who sometimes feels bored. And, Auntie just thinks there's nothing wrong while not blatantly saying it. It was an attempt to build ga**h lovemaking and maintain domestic relations. Just be fine."
Dinda nodded a few times.
In the afternoon.
Andra had gone home and was immediately greeted with her two children who ran to him.
" Bab...!" Ayman cried directly into his arms.
" Ah, Abi's son is home? between whom?" He asked who had seen him around but no one except his two children was watching television.
Ayman hugged her tighter while Keanna suddenly stopped when she saw Ayman who was so in control of Andra. The tears of Keanna who felt excluded.
" Abi.... " The whimper with teary eyes.
" Eoh, why are you crying? Is Ana kangen the same as Abi? Here's Abi's hug..." Andra approached Keanna who immediately hugged her.
" Eoh. This Abinya equally brother faith yes." His words are simple to give an explanation.
From the slight opening of the room door, Dinda cried happily to see him. Seeing how Andra did not distinguish his two children even though Keanna was not his flesh and blood.
Now, I've lost my reason for rejecting you. Refusing your call to fulfill our duty. Dinda's mind wiped her tears that just fell.
