''Where are you going, Nay? Very beautiful, asked Bu Ida while obscuring the appearance of the daughter-in-law from top to bottom.
''You meet Ajeng and Lidya, Ma. At the cafe, replied Ainaya.
''Same Haris?'' ask Ida again.
Ainaya smiled and shook her head. ''But it was the same permission mas Haris kok, Ma, '' answered again, showing the message sent by the husband.
It says the man allowed her to leave.
''Careful. Let mama take care of Bilal.''
Ainaya kissed the back of Ida's hand. Actually, he was also not happy to leave the baby at home, but had already promised Ajeng would come. Nor can it take Bilal out.
''Perhaps, Mama will take food, I will buy it later, '' haggling Ainaya while walking towards the front.
''No need, mama prefers aunty's cooking at home, ''' refused to let Ida look at Ainaya's back which began to move away.
Ainaya approached Edi who was busy cleaning the car.
''Go now, Non?'' ask him kindly.
''Yes, Sir. To cafe loreng.'' Ainaya re-read the message Ajeng sent.
Mr. Edi opened the door for the master and then he sat in front of the steering wheel and ready to split the streets.
Just a few minutes away, Haris had contacted her via video call. Ainaya had to lift it.
''What else is it? Didn't you call?'' ainaya asked with a smile.
''Miss you, don't know. He wants to continue, said Haris without hesitation who made Mr. Edi hold his laughter.
Ainaya's face looked embarrassed. He landed his finger on his lips, giving Haris the code to be silent.
''There's Mr. Edi.'' Flipping the screen of his phone towards the busy driver with his steering wheel.
''Undoubtedly. Mr. Edi was young, he used to be so with his wife, right, sir?'' ask Haris confidently.
''Yes, Den. Let's say this father does not exist.'' Mr. Edi was supportive.
Haris chuckled, he was always able to make Ainaya lose a lot when talking to him.
Their faces met, although only by phone in fact slightly reduce the passionate longing.
''Later if I go home after me to the cafe,'' said Haris and ended his call, do not forget to kiss much first.
''Mas Haris, there's-there, ''' murmured Ainaya lirih.
Mr. Edi stopped his car in front of the destination cafe. As before, he opened the door for the master, then closed it again and waited in the parking lot. While Ainaya went straight to table number seven. There were already two of his best friends there.
''For a long time, I thought I didn't come, on a busy phone, '' said Lydia.
''Kok Bilal was not invited, I miss him, '' Ajeng protest.
Ainaya smiled and apologized then sat down on the empty spot. "Mas Haris deliberately forbade me from taking Bilal. He wants me to be more free like you.''
They laughed in unison, re-enjoying the youth as before.
Waitress comes and offers some of the favorite drinks in the place.
''I ordered like them. Ma'am, '' said Ainaya politely.
Waitress returned to the back after getting the order. The three women immediately talked.
''So you have been proposed Mr Andik? Congratulations yes.'' Just like Lidya, Ainaya was also happy to hear it.
''You yourself how did he approach with Didin mas?'' Ainaya nudged Lidya's hand to make the master choke on a drink that almost entered the esophagus.
Both his eyes were round and shaking. His love story is still a mystery and pitch black. There were no signs of bright light like Ajeng.
''Just calm down, I will help you to be my sister-in-law, Ajeng said confidently.
''Really?''
Ajeng nodded and indeed would do that, because he did not want to see his best friend alone.
Waitress came and placed the drink in front of Ainaya. Make it easier to enjoy it too, after that return to running the activity again.
Chat after chat completes the togetherness of the three of them, so warm. In the past, before the presence of the figure of Haris they often went just to unwind, but all of it disappeared because of the problems that befell Ainaya. Their friendship was tenuous and almost separate. Now, they are united again after a full-fledged struggle.
In the middle of the joke, suddenly a waitress spilled her drink right in Ainaya's hand to make the master surprised and wagged his hand.
''Sorry-sorry, Mom. I didn't intentionally, '' Waitress said feeling guilty.
''Sir papa, next time be careful.'' Ainaya took the tissue and rubbed it.
Good thing that spilled it latte warm to make the skin Water remains safe, but sticky.
''Again I apologize, ma'am, ''' he said, bowing politely.
''Already, no papa, '' said Ainaya again.
''Oh my goodness, Nay. Dirty," Ajeng and Lidya helped clean the best friend's clothes.
''Papa, where is the bathroom?'' ask Ainaya while standing up from her seat.
''There, Mom. Please I inter.''
Waitress walked towards the side of the cafe, followed by Ainaya from behind. They stopped in front of the available bathroom.
Just about to enter, a woman stopped Ainaya.
''Here's the soap, Ma'am. I picked it up, said the woman while thrusting a solid soap in front of Ainaya.
''O, thank you.'' Ainaya received it and entered, coincidentally he also needed it to clean the rest of the latte in his hand.
Forced she to open the skirt she wears, because not only the sticky part of the hand, it also penetrates the thigh which makes it a little difficult.
''Fortunately only here, if the body, I can-biaa bath, '' grimace while rubbing soap in the sticky part.
Almost fifteen minutes, Ainaya was done, he came out of the bathroom and returned to his place, while waitress was no longer there.
''No papa, Nay?'' Lidya stared at Ainaya's wet skirt.
''Undoubtedly. It will also be dry, replied Ainaya relaxed and returned to sitting in his original place. Continuing his chatter that had paused because of a small thing.
The phone from Ainaya's bag rang, he immediately reached out and checked the incoming messages. Turns out it was from Haris who said it had been a trip to the cafe.
''Soon, Haris arrived, I have to go home, '' said Ainaya pouting. She still misses being together but also cannot neglect her duties as a wife.
''Papa, next time we can meet again here.'' Lidya rubbed his best friend's arm and smiled.
''Yes, now Haris gives you freedom, so no need to be afraid anymore. Looks like she's bucin abis.''
They laugh. Perhaps only that word deserved to be pinned, Ainaya also felt that way. In fact, sometimes he has no chance to escape.
''You why, Nay?'' Ajeng grabbed Ainaya's hand which looked red.
''I don't know, it suddenly felt painful.'' Swiping both her thighs that felt a little strange.
