Alif was sitting in a chair watching Nurin who was working with other employees. For a week his heart was always stubborn when he was near Nurin. Is that a sign that Alif has moved from Sakia?
"What's wrong with me. Why do I look so nervous around Nurin?" inner Alif.
"If I really loved Nurin, I wouldn't let anyone take her away from me. Enough I lost Sakia, I don't want to lose the second woman anchored in my heart" Alif murmured softly.
Alif commented a smile as Nurin walked towards him. "Sister, aren't you going to college?" tanya Nurin shifted the seat that was in front of Alif.
"Later noon. My sister has no more college schedule. Just want to enter the file for the thesis test" replied Alif explained.
Nurin who was basically just a high school graduate in her village, the woman just nodded her head. He had heard people say "Thesis Test" but he himself did not know, the thesis exam was how.
"Why am I nervous to be around him" Inner Alif.
"Sister Alif, what's the big brother?" nurin's Tegur.
"No, my brother is fine" Alif replied lying.
"Nurin work first yes" Nurin said and then returned to work.

While at the Sakia Fashion Boutique, Nada and Sakia were checking the items that had just been delivered to them. Order the latest model of the game from Jakarta. Yes, they take goods from Jakarta and sell them back at affordable prices.
"Sister, goods from Jakarta according to the amount ordered. The color and model are the same as we ordered" explained Nada on Sakia who temporarily pulled out the robe from inside the gunny sack. Orderan game from Bandung.
"Alhamdulillah. Deck, help you check the gamis that Brother took out of the sack. Looks like I miscalculated. Hehehehe" Sakia's pinta chuckled.
"Haha. The habits of my brother are not lost. Can't be bothered if you check the goods in" said Nada laughing. Tone takes a note of groceries and then starts to calculate the number of gamis that enter.
Almost three hours Sakia and Nurin did the checking. Both of them were lying on a pile of stuff scattered on the floor. Tired, very tired. That was how Nada and Sakia felt.
"Sir, it looks like we should add an officer. Brother is not strong" Sakia said as she stared at the boutique ceiling.
"I feel so too, brother. A lot of customers are impatient. Once type keep directly to be contacted. Brother, we're looking for two more officers. To help me become an admin" explained Nada pleading.
"Yes, Deck. Do you have any acquaintances looking for work?" ask Sakia.
"There is. But he's in the village. If he recruits, he means assigned to pack goods because in the village, people do not use mobile phones. So he does not know how later" explained Nada.
"It's okay. We'll teach him later. He's an orphan?" ask Sakia again.
"No. He had a Mother and a Father but he was the first of five children. He is the backbone of his family. If we call him, he can finance his sister's school" explained Nada.
"Yes, you call your family to ask the woman to Makassar. Later it costs Kak Kia who is responsible" said Sakia.
"Sister..." Nada hugs Sakia. "Thank you" he said with glazed eyes. The woman in question Nada is Nada's best friend from childhood. They grew up together and had to separate as Nada wandered into the City for the sake of family.
Time passed so quickly, it did not feel, the time was already late in the afternoon. Sakia and Nada close the boutique. Elsewhere in the restaurant, Alif and Nurin are resting with employees who work in the morning. And those who work in the afternoon until night are also there.
Fattan just arrived at the shophouse. The man set foot towards the second floor of the shophouse. Since the door was not closed, Fattan went straight in. A smile rattled sweetly when he found his wife sleeping soundly on the rug precisely in front of the television. The woman was so tired that she slept after coming home from the boutique.
"Kia must be tired. Every day checking goods and live in Makassar dagang" murmured Fattan. Fattan did not want to wake his wife. He went into the room to take off his suit and went out of the room to the kitchen. Unscrew the food hood, no food. That's a sign Sakia hasn't cooked.
"I better cook now" murmured Fattan. Fattan took an apron and put it on. Remove fish and vegetables from the refrigerator.
An hour later, grilled fish and clear spinach vegetables have been presented on the table with a sauce that is not too spicy.
"Uwwaaa" Sakia had just woken up from her sleep. With his eyes closed, he got up and sat down.
"Hurry to take a shower, after that we eat" Fattan said.
Sakia opened her eyes after hearing her husband's voice. "When did you come home?" sakia asked with round eyes.
"Since. My sister cooked. Kia takes a shower, then we eat. No need to wait for night, Brother Fattan is hungry" said Fattan.
Sakia got up from the floor and went into the room to clean her body. While Fattan pouted on the side of the bed. She wants to take a bath in the next room but she doesn't know where Sakia keeps Fattan's boxer pants. Fattan called Sakia, but the woman was busy with a shower of water flushing her body.
Cheque-plek... (Bathroom door is open)
"Big brother why?" sakia asked looking at her husband's pouting face.
"Search internally but can't" replied Fattan with a manyun's lips.
"Hehehehe" kekeh Sakia saw the expression of her husband. "Yes already, now you will take a bath later Kia who prepares a change of clothes" said Sakia.
Fattan made a smile and ran into the bathroom. A few dozen minutes later, he came out with a towel wrapped around his waist.
"Dek, Brother Fattan is muscular too huh" said Fattan as he stared at his body in the mirror.
"Muscled but whiny" ledek Sakia is avenged a small ruckus by Fattan.
After putting on her clothes and pants, Fattan and Sakia go to the dining table. They'll start dinner at six in the afternoon. While eating, there was a knock on the door from the outside.
"Quick wear the hijab, brother will open the door" said Fattan. Sakia goes into the room picking up the hijab while Fattan walks towards the door.
Cheque-plek... (Door is wide open)
"Assalamualaikum" Alif said hello. The one who came was Alif, not Papa Aziz.
"Vaalaikumsalam. Why come here" replied Fattan and asked. Jealousy comes back to her, as the man who loves Sakia so much stands at the door.
"Diddeliver! I'm not someone else. Sister's question revealed, that Brother is a man who does not like his family to visit his house" Alif said then entered the house without being invited to enter.
"Eat him, don't be a fool to be a man. Just realized. Finally a selfish man" alif again quipped while sitting his ass on the sofa.
Fattan stunned. He confirmed the word Alif. Ever since she realized her feelings for Sakia, she had not replied to a message with Alif again. Unlike the past, Fattan often contacted Alif.
