Sidewalk

Chapter 90

Up ahead Athan still shows his performance, hypnotizing the invited guests in the room. Dirga glanced at the Shafi, the woman's gaze straight ahead. Dirga's hands also snatched his phone. Move Dirga is known to Shafi, the woman knows that Dirga will send a message to his second wife, but now he has been acting stupid, he said, just waiting for all the rigidity he had built up all this time to collapse.

Dirga's focus is now only on his mobile screen. Guilt enveloped Dirga's heart, she didn't tell Lala it was her birthday, and she was in the middle of her birthday. Dirga typed a message on his cell phone.

La, I'm sorry I didn't tell you about my birthday.

Tink! Samar heard a message notification sound from behind. Syafi's smile grew wider, although it felt that the sound of the notification hurt more than firing an arrow that shot and landed right in his heart.

It's okay, brother, just relax.

Reply to Lala's message.

“Mbak, just turn off the notification, contact other guests just in case you feel disturbed by the sound of mobile phone mbak.” reprimand one of the other invited guests.

“Sorry, my friend has a baby in his caretaker's care, so monitoring incoming messages is very important.”

The Shafi's heart felt more and more sliced, the guess was right, it was a message from Dirga for Lala. The Shafi was no longer strong to be there, he secretly pulled Mayfa away from there.

“Thank you all.” Athan just finished performing a song, he again greeted the audience. “One year ago, I learned to play this one musical instrument.” Athan stepped into the center of the stage, and took the violin there.

“This is the first time I appear to play this musical instrument in public, so if there is an error, I apologize.”

“This time, I will duet with my best friend who always supports me, also someone who is very meaningful in life who is having a birthday.”

Dirga's attention on her phone screen stopped, she turned to the stage, feeling herself called, because of her birthday tonight.

“Dia is ...” Athan walked towards the side of the stage. So that nothing blocks the monitor screen that is behind the stage.

“Yank, you know who maxed—” Dirga's speech stopped when he realized Syafi was no longer on his side.

At the same time, the large monitor screen was lit up, showing the howling of a woman who was very much loved.

“Happy birthday to my husband. I cannot say many words to you, for you are the source of my words, you are my strength, and my inspiration.” Syafi's smile was so sweet, that Dirga stared at the large monitor screen.

“For this time, which is here.” Shafi placed one of his palms on his left chest. “There is only Abah, mama, then there is the real queen of somplak. My best friend, my friend, my twin, but also sometimes it can be my spiritual teacher, you must know who he is not?”

Dirga's smile floated listening to Syafi's words.

“And now here.” Shafi is still on his left chest. “For the past 3 years. Brother is the ruler here. My mind, my heart, my feelings, there are only brothers. I love you so much kak.”

Video showing the figure of the Shafi stalled. But Dirga's smile did not stop.

“I love you tu Aul-ku.” Mumbled Dirga.

Athan started playing a musical instrument that he was holding.

“If the fog, do not embroider the day until it drags on. Suppose life had hope ...”

Everyone in the room was confused because they did not know who was singing. Their curiosity about who was singing was answered, when the figure of Aurelia Syafitri was above, slowly the swing was getting down, but stopped in the middle of the height. The shafi is so relaxed being on the swing hanging in the middle of the stage.

“Loving you, is the most beautiful part of my life, I don't let you, you're unhappy ...” The eyes of the Shafi are only fixed on Dirga, but occasionally also directed at Lala.

Dirga looked at the appearance of Shafi who was different from usual, but behind his admiration there was concern Dirga, because Sayfi was at height. Shafi continues to sing the song Rossa, Moon Restrained Night.

The appearance of the Shafi stunned everyone, not least Lala. The woman looked at the appearance of a shafi.

“Million existing love fatwas, lead me to reality, let you feel, like .. moon curbed night ...”

Moon in night bridle, moon in night bridle. {voice backing

vocal}

“Loving you .. is the most beautiful part of my life, I don't let you be unhappy ...” The voice of the Shafi is rising. A pair of eyes belonging to the Shafi staring softly at Dirga, the eyes look teary.

Seeing the Shafi look at him with a look of sadness, making Dirga carried away, out of Dirga's control, his tears also dripped seeing Syafi crying while performing the song.

Music is back.

“I wish everything ... though my heart is turning blue, sicktt but I am happy, I accept all our destinies ..”

“Months curbed .. ma-lam ..

The swing that held the weight of the Shafi's body slowly descended down, seeing that the Shafi had set his foot on the stage, Dirga immediately ran towards the stage and immediately embraced his wife.

“Why sing sad song yank?” ask Dirga.

But everyone in the room could hear Dirga's question, because right in the small mic attached to the side of the Syafi ear, the mic was still on.

The Shafi let go of Dirga's embrace, slowly wiping away the tears that soaked his cheeks. Dirga helped the Shafi, he also wiped the tears of the Shafi.

“Why my song?” ask Syafi.

“It feels like I saw your sadness in that song," said Dirga.

“Sad?” The shafi asked back.

“Many words your eyes emit, only your mouth won't speak. How can I understand it?”

Shafi was trying to carve a smile on his face. “This song is a song that reflects my feelings of love for sister.”

Shafi cupped Dirga's face with both hands. “Loving you, is the most beautiful part of my life, I don't let you, you're not happy.” The Shafi sang some of the song. “I love big brother so much. And brother is the most beautiful gift of my life.” Tears were pouring down the cheeks of the Shafi.

“Do not cry dear.” Dirga wiped the tears of the Shafi who did not want to stop dripping, until his eyes also leaked. “I love you very much too.” Dirga grabbed the two hands of the Shafi who cupped his face, and kissed the backs of those palms.

The invitations in the room were moved to see the moment on stage, some even cried.

“If I have to sing a song that describes exactly what my love for my sister feels like, then there is not a single song that I can sing for my sister, that I can sing for my sister, because I had to create the song myself."

Dirga was deeply moved by the words of the Shafi, he immediately pulled the Shafi into his arms. The sound of clapping was echoing in the room, they were very happy to see the couple on the stage.

While down there, Lala looked at the scene on the stage. Seeing what Dirga's love for the Shafi, as well as Shafi's love for Dirga, it felt like he wanted to submerge himself to the bottom of the ocean. Lala imagined how destroyed the Shafi would be if she knew what her relationship with Dirga was. Lala's tears flowed profusely, realizing she was a thorn so poisonous in the bonds of the Dirga and Shafi households.

"Mom Miya, can I go home first?" lala.

"Before a minute, La, I rarely see Mr. Dirga with his wife."

"Mother here alone, I came home alone mumpung not too late."

Miya's mother agreed to Lala's will. Amidst the boisterous applause of the audience, Lala passed by just leaving the event in progress.

Arnaff stopped to look up at the stage, but saw a foreign woman in their midst, leading Arnaff to ask someone nearby. "Who is that woman?" Arnaff pointed towards Lala who continued walking towards the main door.

"Come on, she's coming with Miss Miya."

Arnaff's eyes continued to look at Lala, until the beautiful woman's back disappeared behind the door. As far as Arnaff tonight is only a show of people closest to Dirga and TAG, while he had never seen the woman before.
