After driving Khabeer and Adeeba home, I begged them to see Noah, even remotely.
"Wouldn't you until Noah is angered again by your wife, Ro'uf?" press Adeeba who is sitting in the back. While I sat in front side by side with her husband, Khabeer.
"I promise you, I won't see him, just look"
"Can I hold my word, hum?" ask Adeeba.
"Sure, I promise!" really say.
Finally Adeeba.
"Just look if Laila finds out. He's gonna eat you and Noah alive. Wait in the park, I'll get Noah out"
"Come on, I'm not afraid of Laila, it's just that I can't stand not seeing Noah, that's it, sis, thank you"
"Basically, you've been bewitched by that servant" Khabeer and I both smiled.
Adeeba and her husband got out of my car, and I immediately drove my vehicle in a place some distance from the park.
Shortly waiting, finally saw a woman complete with an abaya and stroller walking towards the park. Him, Noorah...!
Although he was wrapped in a long abaya and covered his entire body, but I'm sure it's not wrong to see.
He was sitting there and I could only watch him from here, in the car, secretly.
Noorah, it looks like you're okay. Cheerful, and look happy, especially occasionally like inviting Oomar to talk in the stroller, even though it looks like the little baby is asleep. Silly indeed. And look, when you're trying to call someone, but I'm not what you mean. Who's the lucky guy to get that call from you, hum?
Is he your husband? your mother, or your family? I don't know.
I saw the annoyance on your face, then you opened your veil, having previously glanced right and left as if no one wanted to peek. What are you going to do? Ow, apparently you're glazed, with a cell phone screen. And look to squeeze some acne that began to grow crowded on your face. It's so sorry you're Noah.
It felt so happy, when I met someone I loved, even though he didn't know I was here watching him.

After all these months, I still went to see Noah secretly without letting him know, when he was shopping, traveling with Adeeba to an ATM or even when he went to a beauty clinic. I always follow him. To keep him safe and to miss being treated.
But how do I try to resist the longing that is getting hotter. When I can't reach her in my arms? I don't know why until now he was the only one in my heart. Although he may not have me, but somehow always the shadow of him who is present at all times.

"Come to the hospital, Laila has given birth and I will make a surprise for her, which she will never leave before" I told Adeeba on the phone.
"What do you mean?" There was Adeeba's voice in the room.
"You'll know later. Babah and ummi will also be present"
."Okay..."
****
'OK!' reply brief.
"Ahmed, let's go now" I got up from the seat.
"What's wrong, my friend, is that our business is not finished" Ahmed, who was sitting opposite me in his room, was astonished.
"Here you go, let's go" impatient to see Noah. Then I made my quick step towards the first floor. Sure enough, he was walking on the stairs. Down's up. And what I feel, is a heart that's pounding. Without distance I could stare at him from here, right in front of him. He also saw me so happy, visible from the look of his eyes and face even though it was covered with a veil.

A few months later.
'I'll make a calculation with Noah, if you still see him. I'll make Noah wretch!' one message from Laila, some time ago. The woman I've been talking about is still trying to do something. I don't know, it looks like he's hurt that I left behind. So the impact is a threat and also terror through the words on the phone.
'I'm not afraid of you' I'll return
'You will regret it!'
'We'll see later' I throw the phone on the table, then reach for Arabica coffee that has started to cool. Dizziness is dealing with people who are constantly chasing, as if he is never satisfied until what he wants is achieved.
"Master!" someone was standing right in front of me.
"Yes?" I frowned. Trying to remember this woman standing in front of me. But no, I don't remember it at all.
"You remember me, sir?" I shook weakly. Even when he took off his veil and started to sound again "my friend Surmi nur"
"Oh, he. I'm sorry I forgot" finally after hearing that name, I remember meeting her.
"Sir, there is something I want to talk about Nur, it is also if you still like him" he said.
"What's that, say it" can't wait what the woman in front of me will say.
"Do you still like Nur, sir?"
the question seems to make sure
"Yes of course" I replied for sure.
"Good, sir. Listen, sir..."
"Yes Surmi. what are you doing with that man sing, huh" a bear-bodied man suddenly chested beside Sumi. The woman's speech stopped.
"Sorry, sir. Next time I talk again. Meet me at my employer's residence yes sir. Excuse me!" Surmi went with the man. Makes me curious about what he said.
