Sometimes, a journey of love is not as smooth as a freeway of obstacles and tumultuous obstacles. Sometimes between couples have some differences other than gender differences of course, namely differences in ways of thinking, differences in attitude, differences in mission vision, sometimes differences in belief, there are even faltering parental blessing. However, with the test in a relationship, it makes lovers more appreciative and uphold their love because it is built with struggle, even if you intend to break the love it takes a long time to think about it considering the struggle that is so difficult.
And that's now the relationship between Naz and Arfin that was just rebuilt an hour and a half ago after it had ended for a year. What Naz had in mind, after he learned of the illness suffered by Arfin and accepted it with his shortcomings and invited him to fight together for his recovery, it has solved the problem that had made them break up, so now they can be happy again because they are dating again.
However, they forget that besides Naz who was injured because of the breakup of their relationship first, they, it also leaves Naz's parents hurt because Arfin left Naz for no apparent reason during an engagement proposal that seems to reject their daughter, especially Mother who knows their problems so hurt because her beloved daughter has been played by Arfin. And this is what became the new polemic in the relationship of Naz and Arfin.
Taxis boarded by Mother, Naz and Ruby finally arrived in front of Mr. Aji's house, they went down and rushed into the house, then Mother brought Naz and Ruby into Dinda's room, “You tea wait here, Mother wants to take our goods at Arfin's house,, oh yes one more,, Mother wants to take our goods at Arfin's house,, where's your phone?”, Mother asked Naz.
“There in the bag,,,”. Say Naz with a soft tone.
“Sini Mommy borrowed first”, said Mommy and Naz also took the phone from inside his bag and gave it to Mommy without a second thought.
After getting Naz's phone, Mommy left, and Naz just realized, “Mother,, my phone wants to be taken to where?”, asked Naz who stopped Mother's step and then turned to her.
“Your phone Mother confiscated, so that she could not contact Arfin, and you Ruby,, do not try to help her contact Arfin”, said Mommy firmly, saying, “Mother will contact your sister to pick you up here”, said Mother who then left.
Bruk ,,, Naz dropped himself on the floor, “Why so this is it, By,,, hyks,, why my love story endless trials keep coming and going,,, hiks hiks... I must how, By? Hiks hiks”, he said sobbing while sitting on the floor.
Ruby also sat on the floor next to Naz, then held Naz's shoulder,
“Sabar Naz,, I'm confused what to say,,, I'm also sad to see Lo sad like this, I don't know what to do Naz.. You are patient" said Ruby,
" Why Mother even so so that. Mother previously agreed with my relationship and brother Arfin.even yesterday was also good when we lived in the house of Kak Arfin",,,,
"I think it's natural that Mommy is worried about Lo and interfere in your relationship, because you don't want it to hurt Lo again like first... The problem is that your relationship has involved parents, even the extended family lo Naz,, of course they expect you to go to a serious level until marriage, plus Kak Arfin who is mature age is also well established,,, and I also agree the same words Mother, if if only Kak Arfin just want to play around the same time you until the kayak incident, mending you do not have to date again with him,,, I'm also afraid that later you will get hurt again,,”, Ruby explained her opinion.
“But now I already know the real reason he left me, and he also said he would fight for me, make me happy,, I love him very much, By… hiks hiks”, said Naz continues to defend the lover.
“Yaudah then, you just wait for him to prove his words the same lo, if he is serious as you, he will fight for you dead-dead, Naz,, every problem there must be a way out, rather than lo nangis mending think how so that Kak Arfin can convince Mother of his seriousness the same lo,, that too if he wants to meet Mother gently,,,,,, that is, if he wants to meet Mother gently, that is,,, and according to me, you should at this time just obey Mother's orders, do not continue to rebel, even if you can do well Mother, give what kind of cake for example diamonds, diamonds, uh but if you like a versatile pot like mother-mom lebish so or teflon-coated diamond kayak in the advertising lejel home shopping, so that later facilitate your relationship with Kak Arfin”, ruby said then taught bribery - bribing to facilitate relationships.
"Basar Lo, even taught me to bribe.", said Naz ketus.
After a while her sister Ruby came to pick her up with her husband, and she said goodbye after encouraging Naz and strengthening his best friend. coinciding with Mother who had just returned from Arfin's house with her suitcase and also belonged to Naz. They say goodbye to Naz and Mommy, then leave, while Mommy and Naz return to Dinda's room located on the second floor with a suitcase each.
“Mother already booked a plane ticket, tomorrow our flight at half-eight in the morning, and at six we will leave for airport”, said Mother when just entered the room.
“Iya Mommy, “, replied Naz just mutt, then Naz changed clothes with a nightgown, while Mommy left the room again after storing the suitcase.
Now she is lying in bed thinking about her relationship with Arfin, until she shed tears once in a while, then wipe them off considering how difficult their love journey is. He was eager to ask for his cellphone which is still in the hand of Mother, because he wanted to hear the voice of his lover before he went to sleep, but he remembered the words of Ruby so as to recede and not defy Mother.
Ceklek , Mother, entered the room with a cellphone in her hand,
“Outside there is Arfin,, he definitely wants to meet you”, said Mother who suddenly made Naz rise and immediately sat down with a smile because she was happy the idol came to see him.
“But Mother will not let her meet you,,”, said Mother again, and immediately Naz's smile disappeared. “Mother will give you the same offer, so you can know what exactly is the purpose of her relationship with you again, how?”, asked Mommy to offer a deal.
Naz thought for a moment, then there was confidence in him that Arfin would prove his words, "Alright, but what is it?", asked Naz astonished.
“Look with Mommy, later Mommy explained”, said Mother then they went out of the room and walked down the stairs to the living room below while talking about Mother's plan at Naz.
Ting nong,,, ting nong, there was a sound that rang the bell from behind the main door, Mother opened it, and sure enough Arfin had already come, Mother did not let him enter and instead spoke on the front porch of the open door.
Mother spoke in a jutek tone to Arfin who wanted to see Naz, and he instead prevented her and continued to talk to Arfin who also continued to apologize for the incident at the hospital this afternoon, until he asked for a chance to repair his relationship with Naz by holding both of Mother's hands with his hands. Mother who did not give permission then expressed what she felt first during the breakdown of Arfin's relationship with Naz, the, until he asked the question that would determine the fate of the relationship Naz an Arfin just re-established a few hours ago.
“Now Mommy wants to ask you, what is the purpose of you dating again with Naz? Want to be serious until marriage?, or just to play?”, asked Mommy with a serious face.
Hearing the word ‘married’ made Arfin speechless while lowering his head and releasing the hand of Mother from his grasp, he seemed to be thinking because he did not know what to answer about something that had made him never going to do it, which is not going to marry, and will never marry anyone.
“Why are you silent, Arfin?, what is this Mother's question too heavy for you to answer? Or indeed you just want to play Naz again like before?”, Mother who feels sore standing at the door also throws again the question because she never gets an answer.
Arfin was still silent while looking down, as if he did not pay attention to Mother's question, either because he was still confused by her feelings, or because he was still afraid to establish a serious relationship to the level of marriage.
Mother seems to have started to growl with the silence of Arfin, “Then do not ever see my son again before you can answer the question Mother earlier,, this is the night you should go home, then you should go home, Mother also wants to rest, good night”, said Mother in a firm tone and then closed the door again.
“Now you've heard it yourself right? She did not answer Mother's question about her seriousness”, said Mother to Naz who had been standing behind the door eavesdropping on their conversation. Naz just shut up and lowered his head to hear the words of Mother, “Tok we sleep,, tomorrow we have to leave early in the morning once”, said Mother holding the hand of Naz led him to invite back to the room to sleep. Naz walked down while holding himself back from crying.
After arriving in the room he immediately lay on the bed, then covered himself with a badcover and slept sideways to his back against Mother who slept next to him. The tears that he had been holding back from now on were unstoppable, continuing to flow down his cheeks, he said,
”Why is it like this? It was very difficult for us to unite,, does he still doubt me who would accept all his shortcomings?”, he murmured inwardly, until he fell asleep.
***
While Arfin who had received the rejection of Mother for not being able to answer the questions that Mother asked, returned home with a step of care and sadness, back home, disappointed and angry at himself who did not have the courage to convince Mother of his seriousness towards Naz. It seemed that there was still doubt in his heart and fear of disappointing Naz and not being able to make him happy in the future. He went into his room and mourned his own foolishness.
After thinking long with various considerations, finally he has established his heart to fight for the girl he loves so much, “Tomorrow I will see Mother again, I promise Naz,, I promise, Naz, I will meet you again,, I will fight for our love, I will seek treatment again and strive for my healing for your sake, for the sake of being able to live with you forever, I love you very much my girl”, my daughter, he said smiling while staring at the screen of his cellphone which showed a picture of the girl adored his heart.

The next day, at 07.10 am Arfin came out of his room dressed neatly stelan want to go to the office, he walked to the dining room and there was already the Mami sitting there playing her phone while smiling herself. “Again chating who is Mi,,,? very excited like”, asked Arfin who then sat down.
“Sama Papi you are,, who else is “, replied Bu Hinda without taking a look from her phone screen, “Oh yes,, Mami will be home in the afternoon to Jakarta,, Your papi has missed he said”, he said again.
“Iya Mi,, “, said Arfin while chuckling then took a plate and filled it with rice and side dishes, hearing the word miss he also remembered the lover he missed, then he drank the juice and ate the food, but only two feeds he stopped and did not continue.
“Kok already ate it? Different tastes with Naz cuisine?”, asked Bu Hinda who noticed Arfin, while Arfin just smiled and drank and finished his breakfast. “Oh yes, how was last night? You have spoken to Anita and apologized to her?”, asked her who remembered last night Arfin went to Pak Aji's house
“Udah Mi, just now Al want to go there again, because last night our conversation was not finished”, replied Arfin who finished drinking.
“Where do you mean?”, asked Bu Hinda astonished.
“Ya to Om Aji's house, where else”, replied Arfin casually.
“Why go to Pak Aji's house? Their people are already at the airport and eight minutes away also the plane takes off”, said Bu Hinda while glancing at his watch.
“What?? Airport?”, Arfin surprised.
“Iya, at the airport, they will return to Jakarta this morning, he said Naz had to be together again even though he was still off school, will he soon be UN”
“What,, why didn't Naz tell me that he was coming home this morning,, if I chased him I wouldn't go hunting,,,, which is 8 minutes to really take off as a lie,, surely now Naz is already on the plane and his phone has been turned off,, argh,, damn”, he murmured inwardly.
“Morning Mom, morning Bosque..”, greet Lutfi.
“Ngapain you guys came so early?”, asked Arfin ketus.
“Loh, we will go to the Semarang Branch office Mr. Arfin Yth.”, said Lutfi.
“When ? why don't you guys tell me??”, said Arfin back ketus.
“Today is... Yes, sir, that's the schedule you asked for two days ago, Young Master, and last night I reminded you via chat”, said Dilara also upset.
“Chat what,, last night I did not get a message from you”, said Arfin sure.
“There sir, try check”, he said then Arfin took the phone from inside his pants pocket and opened his whatsapp application, and sure enough there was a message from Dilara.
“Barrown you,, who really told me at one in the morning when I was sleeping fast,,,,”, he said nagging at his secretary.
“Hehehe,, I forgot yesterday, because you are still being treated,, uh it turns out to be alive”, said Dilara while grinning and making Arfin even more upset.
“Already,,, let's quickly leave, later we miss the plane again,,,”, said Lutfi then broke up the boss and secretary who continued to fight against the mouth, and, then Arfin took his briefcase and say goodbye to his Mami, the three of them went to the airport ushered by the office driver.
***
Naz is now lying hugging the bolster while daydreaming on the bed at his parents' house, because after arriving in Jakarta Naz ordered an online taxi to take him to his Mama's house and did not come to the house of Mommy, because he felt annoyed at Mother who had separated him from her lover, and she was very upset, even while on the plane he was silent a thousand languages harbored his frustration. And in the taxi he could so much so that he screamed that the taxi driver was shocked and frightened that Naz was possessed by an airport demon, so that when at home he did not need to cry anymore,, so that he did not have to cry anymore,, that's what his father taught him.
“Why Kak Arfin did not meet me, even though Mommy already told Mami since dawn if we want to return to Jakarta,,, and Mami said on the phone also talked to him about our return, but why did he even go to Semarang, did he not have the same serious intention as I said yesterday?? Huft, why is it like this? Where my phone is still confiscated with Mother, and I have not memorized the number of Kak Arfin that I have deleted since breaking up,,,”, Naz dialogue in his heart.
Tok tok tok ,,, the sound of knocking on the door blew away Naz's daydream.
“Naz, let's eat, Mama has already made your favorite meal, Raline and Elsa have been waiting in the dining room”, exclaimed Mama from behind the door.
“Iya Ma,, Naz will follow, want to pray first”, said Naz who then went to the bathroom and returned and prayed. After that, he went to the dining room where the three women in his house besides him had been waiting for lunch together.
***
For two days Naz continued to wait for Arfin's arrival by refraining from contacting him, but the expected one did not come. He just shut himself up in his room, filled out exam practice questions to divert himself from thinking about Arfin, he came out just to eat or take a drink.
Tonight is Sunday night, the night of a young woman who has a partner spending time to cheat, whether it's going to the street, having dinner together, going to the movies, or just menggapel to her boyfriend's house. Unlike the case with Naz, who despite having no partner flanking him, he can only enjoy a gray Sunday night.
Naz had just finished dinner with his family and there was a bell ringing.... Ting nong's ....Ting nong ..., Naz heard it felt like he had the wind of heaven, "What is Brother Arfin,?", he murmured inwardly while peeling an orange. A happy smile was engraved on his face that looked radiant in series. Then came Bi Surti, the,
"Sorry Sir. There are guests for you" Bi Surti told Mr. Syarief.
" Guests for me ?? Was Aunt wrong? kok Sunday night gini is not my daughters who are flanked, even Papa", said Mr. Syarief joking, then he moved from the dining room to meet his guests.
Naz, who had been happy, again became sad, then he said goodbye and returned to his room.
***
The next day after breakfast Raline and Elsa took Naz on a pilgrimage to the tomb of Bu Mira, and she accepted the invitation of the two sisters. After preparing Naz to wear yellow tops, jeans, and black sweather, along with a black pashmina veil, they also left to be escorted by Mr. Udin.
On the road before entering the cemetery area, they buy flowers and rose water, the seller already knows the three because they regularly once a month come there. Then the three of them walked down the public burial area to the tomb of Mira's late mother. They prayed, then poured rose water and sprinkled flowers, and they told stories as if their mothers were hearers of their hearts.
After a while they left their mother's vortex, and returned to where Mr. Udin was waiting.
"Sister.we hang out in the cafe, said Temenku there is a new cafe and the view is also beautiful" said Elsa to her two brothers .
"Emmm...may-can... rather than at home continue to be,,, have you seen about the test training, what about Naz?", asked Raline to Naz.
"As for you, I follow Bae" said Naz resignedly, then they entered the car with Elsa sitting in front of Pak Udin, raline is in the back with Naz. Naz felt sultry then opened his sweather and veil.
"Naz try to smell this new perfume Iloh.... good not smell?", said Raline thrust her veil that she had folded back, then Naz kissed her.
"The wind is delicious.kalem... girly very", he said giving a value, then Mr. Udin then drove his car to the place informed by Elsa. Naz returns to daydreaming until he falls asleep during the journey.
"Sister... Sister Nanaz..wake up.we've come to this.", Elsa wakes Naz up by wiggling her arms.
"Emhhh.... We have arrived... Where is this??", asked Naz puzzled.
"So, the road will be straight there, after 10 meters continue to turn left, we have ordered a table there, brother tempati afraid he was taken over the same person,,,, we have,,, I want to order the food first, because Raline again to the toilet stomach mules he said,", said Elsa who then immediately left.
Naz whose consciousness had not yet gathered down from the car, and upon looking out it turned out that this place was no stranger to him, he said, he stepped up with a raging feeling because he had never been to this place again for too many memories here. He walked according to Elsa's direction, straight 10 meters and then turned left, and sure enough there was an empty table but there were four empty plates complete with spoons and forks, and sure enough, there was an empty table, there are also some flowers kept in glass vases. Then Naz approached and sat down in one of his chairs.
"This place hasn't changed much,, the atmosphere is still the way it used to be" he murmured inwardly as he circulated his gaze.
"Excuse me Miss, this is a special order for you, ", said a waiter who came with a tray full of dishes with a round gun-shaped serving lid, then put it on the table right in front of Naz.
"For me ?? ", Naz asked feeling confused and astonished.
"Yes, that's according to the order from this table, Miss, he said it's Miss's favorite, please, enjoy.. I'm sorry", he said then saying goodbye.
"My favorite food?? hmmmm.... Elsa knows if I am sad to eat again" Naz said smiling and opening the lid.
When it was perfectly opened his eyes widened in surprise to see the filling of the plate,,,
" Huh....who said this is my favorite food??", Ask her still in shocked mode.
