Time keeps going. The sun began to rise and the morning began to rise. In the kitchen of the Gilang family residence, Ailee was busy preparing provisions for lunch.
So busy, the young woman who was in the kitchen was not aware of the presence of Maida. Erlan's wife deliberately walked over and approached Ailee, after the oma told her that the wanted man was there. Maida then closed Ailee's eyes with her palms.
"Who, anyway? So cute! Mai must be, huh? I memorized the scent of your perfume, Mai," guessed Ailee.
Maida chuckled softly as she released her hand that closed Ailee's eyes. "What cooking, anyway? That smells good?" maida asked as she looked at the pan where Ailee was sauteing oyster shells, a request from her husband this morning.
"Mas Gilang wants to have lunch together at the office, so I cook special," replied Ailee while lifting the pan because the cooking was cooked.
"Tumben you're home, Mai? Not to Bang Er's office?" ailee asked then while storing the dishes into an airtight container to take to her husband's office.
"Ni wanted to go there, but I deliberately went home first to pick you up," Maida replied, smiling meaningfully.
"Pick me up? You mean, I want to go to Bang Er's office?" Ailee's forehead is wrinkled deep. "But I'm sorry, Mai, Mas Gilang told me to go to his office. Next time, yes, we go together, "push Ailee then with a bad heart.
"Because of that, Ai, honey. Bang Er wants us to have lunch together, so I was asked to pick you up before going to the office. Later, we meet directly at Mas Gilang's office, really. So 'no need to go to our office first" Maida explained, at length.
"Oh, so. Yes, this is the name I added. Fortunately I cooked a lot of side dishes, so we can go to all of them," Ailee replied while taking a container for rice.
"I was, anyway, going to buy it outside. Because you've cooked, yes, this is it. After all, it is better to cook than to buy. You're a cook, right," Maida praised as she plucked the clams with her hands.
Directly Ailee mopped slowly Maida's hand. "Sorok, eh! Use a spoon!"
"Over plate and rice, Ai. We eat until we are full and then go to sleep. Let our husbands wait until the hour!" The two of them laughed together.
Yes, it has become their habit if they are in the kitchen. One of the two of them, someone must have done something wrong. Until their presence, made the assistants feel entertained and then joined in laughing to see the actions of the two young women.
If Maida is ripe, Ailee sometimes accidentally plucks food that has been arranged perfectly to make Erlan's wife grow furious. Because, his efforts so that the husband saw the beautiful look of the cuisine, damaged by Gilang's wife. Vice versa, Ailee is also often made keki by Erlan's wife.
After preparing lunch jokingly, the two young women immediately prepared. Ailee returned to the bath because she did not want to meet her husband with the smell of kitchen smoke attached to the body. After neat and fragrant, the two then say goodbye to the oma and Mama Irna.
Meanwhile in Gilang's office, Erlan had just entered his cousin's sister's room without knocking on the door first. The ghost of his presence made Gilang very surprised. "Bang, Er! Just ngangetin!" gilang protests that seem to dislike.
Certainly Gilang does not like to see the presence of Erlan at this time because the GCC boss is waiting for the presence of his wife. Gilang wants to enjoy lunch alone with Ailee. So seeing Erlan's presence, the handsome young man looked very cool.
"Why is your face bent like that, Ge? Look at the depkoleketor!" Erlan chuckled softly and then sat herself down on the sofa even though Gilang had not invited her.
Inevitably, Gilang also laughed and then moved his seat, accompanying his cousin. "Indeed, people face debt like that, Bang?" ask Gilang later.
For a moment, Gilang forgot that this afternoon he had a lunch appointment with his beloved wife. Lunch with a special menu to prepare for the long battle later tonight. The battle that he had longed for, after a long time Gilang had to fast because the wife had a miscarriage.
"Tumben by noon Brother came here. Mai's busy in college, huh?" ask Gilang after their laughter subsides.
"Oh yeah, Ge. You're not a honeymoon yet, are you?" Instead of answering Gilang's question, Erlan instead threw a question at the cousin's sister.
Gilang took a long breath. "That's it, Bang. Bang Er knew it himself, right, the obstacles. The pain of my father-in-law, my brother's marriage, my wife's pregnancy. In fact, the plan for baby moon has not been delivered, Ai even miscarried." Gilang's face was suddenly gloomy, making Erlan feel guilty.
"Sorry," Erlan said softly, patting Gilang on the shoulder.
I looked up and then smiled. A smile that seems forced. "No need to apologize, Bang. We've talked about it many times, haven't we?"
"I was talking to Ai this morning, to realize the honeymoon I had promised her first. God willing in the near future, we will do it," he continued, smiling again, remembering that from tonight he could touch his wife again.
"Where to? To the destination you ordered? Or, you have another choice?" cecar Erlan and Gilang rolled heads.
"Not yet, Bang. The plan this afternoon we want to discuss, all lunch," reply Gilang.
"Well, what a coincidence, Ge. I came here to talk about it with you." Netra Erlan seemed to sparkle, talking about the holiday. Because, the vacation is not just any vacation, but a very thrilling vacation.
"I also plan to invite Mai to honeymoon because she will be on semester break soon. When Daddy heard my plan, Daddy and Mommy suggested that we could go together, and he gave us honeymoon vouchers wherever we wanted" Erlan continued.
"Ai want to go to Makkah Medina, Bang," said Maida who had just entered with Ailee.
"Ai want a pilgrimage to the tomb of Rosulullah. Ai wanted to pray there so that we would be immediately reassured by Allah. Given a strong baby and being born safely" Ailee said, hopeful.
Apparently, throughout the journey Maida had also told as Erlan had told Gilang. Erlan's wife strongly agreed with Ailee's idea and supported Gilang's wife's one hundred percent wishes. He also wants to say the same prayer so that he can soon catch up with his twin sister who is now pregnant.
Hearing the words of his wife, Gilang assures with glazed neutrals. He recalled the incident this morning when he found his wife was daydreaming in the dressing room. Apparently, the wife has not been able to forget the sense of loss of prospective baby.
Gilang immediately moved and approached the wife. He hugged his wife tightly. "God must have heard your do'a, dear. God willing, He will give the best for us" whispered Gilang, full of confidence and Ailee assured in the heart.
"We all travel around the Middle East, Bang, yes" Maida pinta spoiled, after sitting next to her husband.
