Huda always imagined the incident this morning, when Laras took rice for him. Very impatiently Huda came to Sigit in his work section.

" Git. . .Sigit"Called.

" What else?" Lazily Sigit finally turned his head.

" You saw this morning Laras. . ."

" yes. . . Yes. . . May we be brothers." said Sigit origin.

" God is amiin."

Huda was very happy for many years he never responded by Laras but this morning, Laras took him rice. Yeah. . . Even if it was told by his father.

Huda is back at work, really today he is not focused at all.

'Later tonight I will pray in the mosque near his house, when he meets him when he goes home to teach njai, I hope my steps are encouraged by you, O ALLAH.'

The night Hudapun awaited came, and what he predicted was true. Laras had finished teaching njai but he immediately performed the prayers of magrib and Isya' in the mosque.

"Assallammualaikum" Sapa Huda.

"Wa'alaikumsallam" Chadi and Sasi replied loudly while Laras only replied slowly.

Chadi and Sasi immediately kissed the back of Huda's hand and after that Chadi immediately pulled Sasi's hand to run.

" We went home first Bun" Triak Chadi while running with Sasi's hand.

'Smart You Chadi' Thought Huda.

" I'll accompany you all the way up to Laras' house."

Laras did not answer, but there was no rejection from him. They wander slowly and silence into walls that block them.

awkwardly wanting to start a conversation, they did not talk to each other.

"Brains, sorry." Huda said beginning "Do I make you uncomfortable?" Huda just doesn't want Laras to feel uncomfortable next to him.

"No mas, only I'm awkward if a lot of people see us." Answer Laras.

" Why be awkward, soon we'll be shah." Huda is not able to base stale or fight and it makes Laras stop his steps.

" I've been serious about Laras."

" I'm not a good girl to you, my past is very dark."

" Laras, let's bury your past and start your future with me. I accept you for who you are." Huda like seeing reproach in the heart of Laras, the proof all this time Huda could never argue with Laras about his feelings.

Laras listened to all Huda's words but he did not answer, Laras again stepped his foot followed by Huda who balanced his footsteps.

Silence began to envelop the togetherness of Laras and Huda. Huda now began to give in to instructing himself not to be rash, to be able to walk alone like this alone he had to wait five years.

" Did your parents agree with you if you wanted to marry me?"

Now Huda who was surprised to sting Laras asked that, will Laras accept him? Or Baras just asked.

" What does this question mean to you, Laras? Do you intend to accept me?"

" I just want to keep myself strong."

Huda's smile can't be covered. He was happy to hear the words of Laras even though it was still ambiguous but according to him this is a great opportunity.

" Both of my parents were dead, Laras, before I came here I lived with my aunt, but take it easy. My aunt never opposed my decision."

Baras walked again without saying any more words, Huda Smile plastered all the way, his heart could not be conditioned. Today he got a lot of surprises from Laras.

It does not feel they have started to enter in the courtyard of the house Laras. And suddenly. . .

" LEAHRASH!!!" The barito's voice loudly shocked Laras and Huda. Johan called out to her with emotion.

Johan was there with Rudi. They are waiting for the arrival of Laras but who would have thought if Laras came home with Huda.

Rudipun was surprised but he was not as emotional as Johan. Johan's eyes seemed to want out of place.

While Laras also felt afraid, for some reason.he felt like he was cheating.

" IN!!" Jerky Johan.

Spontaneous Laras stepped wanting to enter the house, but suddenly Laras' hand was held by Huda.

" You have no obligation to judge his words." Whisper Huda.
