The Light of ANAS

Call My darling What ??

Rain bearer of blessings, that is the right expression for this moment, thanks to the rain accompanied by lightning flashes and the sound of lightning that seems to blow the sky and earthshaking, the, able to melt the heart of a man who was branded as a crocodile lizard by his friends against a cute beautiful little boy named Shanala. Nala who turned out to be afraid of the sound of gledek until she cried hysterically, no one was able to calm her other than the crocodile lizard, Nervan.

Nervan subconsciously cared so much for the child he had just met, his heart seemed to be moved to take over Nala from the lap of Naz who continued to cry hysterically to give Nala protection in his arms, and sure enough he managed to do it with an idea that he had done to someone in his past.

Nala lifted her head and looked into Nervan's eyes with a smile, ”Telimakacih Papa”, said Nala with sparkling eyes although still looking a little red from crying. While Nervan heard the word immediately silently glued to continue looking at Nala who seemed to melt his feelings, there was a strange rumble in his heart, his chest seemed to tremble, his lips as if numb could not say anything, haru's sense of surprise was gobsmacked into one.

“He called me Papa”, Lirih Nervan in his heart.

Naz, Arfin, Dandy and Hardi are still surprised to see Nervan's treatment of Nala again surprised by Nala's speech.

“You did tell Nala that Bang Evan is her Papa?”, asked Arfin who whispered in Naz's ear.

Naz shook his head then he also whispered into Arfin”'s ear, I didn't say anything about Bang Evan,, I was shocked to hear it too,, how is this,, ?”.tanya Naz was confused.

Heavy rain has now subsided and stopped instantly, because usually if the rain falls rapidly then it will quickly stop, as well as the glass that has not jarring again, because usually if the rain falls rapidly it will stop, another case with lightning flashes that occasionally still pakgurinyay.

“Are you not hungry? I'm the same Nala hasn't eaten nih”, Naz's voice broke the silence that happened at the table.

“Iya, I am also hungry, already eleven o'clock over turned”, Dandy commented.

“We are looking for a meal yuk,, here it is just coffee-coffee an aja.... “, Take Naz and then hold the shoulder of Nala who is still a henchman listening to music on the lap of Nervan, ”Syanala,,,, eat yuk”, said Naz while motioning to shake his hand to the mouth as if to feed a spoon, Nervan also removed hands-free from both ears Nala.

“What is kaka?”, asked Nala.

“We eat yuk,,, Nala must be hungry was tired just now,, here in the same car Kaka again, pity it Om Evan his pegel”, and, Naz persuades Nala to get out of Evan's lap, but he shakes his head with a frown, initially Nala continues to reject Naz who continues to persuade him, over time Naz finally issued his entangled stance, “Nala let's dong here same kaka again, will we later want to buy a cute doll...”.

“Poneka?? Nala wants to poneka duku..”, exclaimed Nala with sparkling eyes and she eventually turned to Naz's sling.

“Sorry Bang, Nala said, since she was born she has never met her father, she has never felt the affection of a father,, she has never felt the affection of a father,, so he said that because Brother had given him attention and managed to calm him like a father”, said Naz who is now carrying Nala, Nervan seemed to smile faintly at the exposure of Naz.

“Kalo so let's find food I'm also hungry nih”, invite Dandy who has risen from his seat, then they walked away from the cofee shop and looked for a place to eat from the rows of food courts in the mall. After choosing one of the places to eat, they went in and ordered food while sitting in the chairs available there.

After a while the food they ordered came and when they wanted to eat, Nala did not want to be fed by Naz, instead whining to be greeted with Om Evan, he said, and this time Naz couldn't persuade her even once with the puppet bait.

“Gak what Naz, let Brother bribe Nala,, “, said Nervan.

“But Bang,,, “, Naz felt bad to trouble Nervan.

“Here the food,, from which Nala did not eat, will pity”, Nervan took Nala's dinner plate from the table in front of Naz then began to feed Nala who was sitting next to him. Arfin who saw the moment immediately captured it with his cellphone camera silently.

“Woah,, it turns out you have a kebapak instinct and also yes Van”, Dandy said.

“Iya actually Dan,, uh but how do I notice Nala is similar yes lo Van,, do-don't he lo child again, you're a lot of girls”, said Hardi thought.

Uhuk uhuk, Arfin immediately choked on hearing Hardi's words, then Naz immediately took the water and gave it to Arfin, ”Pelan-elan eatnya A,,,,”, and,said Naz and Arfin received it and then immediately drank.

“Don't be crazy lo yak,, I love changing girls, but there's no one I've ever slept with, how can I suddenly have a child”, how can I, Nervan replies that Hardi's conjecture is wrong, while Naz and Dandy just play each other's eyes while holding back laughter as if they want to laugh at Hardi who does not know the truth.

After eating Hardi and Dandy go home first, while Naz wants to fulfill his promise to buy Nala a doll, but Nala does not want to be separated from Nervan and instead asks to be carried by him. Whether there is encouragement from where or because without him realizing there is an inner bond between the two of them, Nervan also follows the will of Nala who forgot her mother's message before she left earlier, Nervan, yes, the name is also a small child sometimes likes to forget the advice of his parents if he wants.

Finally Naz walks in with Arfin following Nervan who holds Nala as they walk in search of a doll shop, then enters it and Nervan buys Nala some dolls with various shapes according to Nala's choice. Not only that, Nervan also bought Nala various types of toys that Nala chose herself while running here and there and Nervan continued to chase after her, while Naz and Arfin just sat there watching Father and son who were engrossed in their activities.

“What a beautiful and heartwarming sight, A, I am very happy to see it, even though they do not know each other, without them knowing they already feel the bond between them,,, and,, surely people will think that they are the father and son of”, said Naz who was moved to see it until his eyes were glazed.

“Iya, you are right, thanks so much for giving this idea, sorry so inconvenient you have to bring Nala alone here and keep carrying her also accompany her to play,, surely you are tired and overwhelmed yes,,,,, you are,,,”, Arfin felt bad for Naz.

“Don't say that, we've agreed to reunite them as a whole family, and I promised myself to fight for it, “, , said Naz then leaned his head to the side right on Arfin's shoulder.

“Nala is very happy like it is,, he continues to sort through toys but does not take them as if he is just working on Bang Evan,,, do not tell me you taught him to love Bang Evan..”, you are not, Arfin chuckled at the action of Nala pointing at the toy as Nervan nodded, Nala instead shook her head and continued walking to move to another toy place and continued to do the same thing. He also thought Naz was the mastermind.

“Yeee,, good bae recriminate people, yes no, yes yes, yes time yes I put my talent on Nala,,, uh but yes yes, he looks like a bang Evan gerjain that, uh, though it was the basket that Bang Evan was holding was already full,, it seemed like it was only Nala's reason for being able to linger with Bang Evan,, it turned out that he was a smart child,,, and,, meaning our mission has started to succeed, A”, said Naz smiling happily at the familiarity of the father and son.

Finally, the toy shopping was finished and Nervan paid for the hunt for the two of them, then Arfin and Naz brought Nala's groceries, because he who returned in the carriage Nervan did not want to escape. They walk to the parking lot and it turns out Nala fell asleep in Nervan's arms with her fingers playing a soft Nervan sweater, maybe Nala thought it was her blanket, and it made Nervan even more astonished.

“Sini Bang, Nala let me carry”, Naz want to take over Nala from Nervan's lap.

“Let your brother take him home, you go home with Arfin”, said Nervan who made Naz again surprised because there will be a great danger if Nervan to the orphanage and met with Maira, Naz thought for a moment and he remembered something.

“Yakin Bang want to go to the home.... ?”, asked Naz while smiling ignorantly.

“Replace ?”, ask Nervan astonished.

“Iya, Nala is living in a mother's love orphanage run by Bude Hafsah”, Naz reminds Nala of where she lives.

Nervan realizes that and then he hands Nala with a heavy heart to Naz, then Naz gets into Arfin's car, and Arfin who had finished putting groceries directly into the car and was ready to drive it, Naz opened the car glass and said goodbye to Nervan, then they left the parking lot and Arfin drove his car to the home.

“Pinjem jacket Aa dong in the back of the chair, as if the material is soft yes, Nala if sleeping must hold the blanket or a soft cloth so that he sleeps soundly “, Nala, Naz pointed to the seat of the car that Arfin was sitting in and he gave his jacket after slowly pulling it down because while driving.

“It has that habit too? How is it like Bang Evan's sleeping habit,,,? He if traveling also likes to bring a small fluffy blanket made soft in his suitcase, because if using a bedcover will not mempan”, Arfin revealed the sleep habits of Nervan which turned out to be decreased in Nala.

“Haha, this further proves that Nala is indeed his daughter”, Naz said as he slipped Arfin's jacket on Nala who slept on his lap, and he immediately played his finger and held the sweater's hand and locked it in his hand.

“It is fortunate that you managed to prevent Bang Evan from bringing Nala home, not to be happy if he met Maira at panti”, Arfin said, recalling the incident in the parking lot.

“Iya dong, Naz that loh,, there's no way he's going to the parlour, he hasn't set foot in the parlour in a long time, and now I know why, he said, because it reminds him of Brother Maira” there, Naz seems to be lost.

“Kok you can know Bang Evan has long not wanted to go to the orphanage anymore? How much do you know about Bang Evan? how close were you to Bang Evan? You should tell me everything, rather than later Aa know from others again”, Arfin has begun to sensi again if it has discussed Naz and Evan.

“Ampuuun deh this borokokok,, the jealousy is not the same Bang Evan”. Naz grumbled in his heart.

“Ya depends on the content of the story how it used to”, said Arfin.

“Yaudah if that's why I don't want to tell”, Naz undo his intentions.

“What? So there's still a lot you're hiding from me about you?”, Arfin's getting pissed.

“Tuh right ,, not yet a story already sewot, already ah males .. meningan sleep aja nemenin Nala, rather than talking to Aa, not obviously so”, said Naz who also felt upset.

Arfin breathed violently and glanced at Naz who looked annoyed, “Iya, yes Aa promise will not be angry”, finally Arfin gave up because his sense of kepo is higher.

“Awas ya do not deny the promise,,, “, Naz warned and then started telling stories, “So he was after a few days from Aa said he wanted to come home from America like to play at home, I thought I was just going to meet Brother Dandy, it turns out he was trying to get close to me after we met when I served him a drink at his ”, , naz's speech stopped for a moment while glancing at Arfin who was still safe.

“Well he kept trying to get close to me, but I never responded, because by then my heart was already attached to my FB friend Anas and I knew he was a playboy. After I found a handkerchief and be smile in Bang Evan's car, he also went to college in America and before leaving had an accident, even we had met at the lake so I initially thought that Sang Anas was him, because I found his real name when I read Kak Dandy's High School's memento book,, and if abbreviated as ANAS”, Naz explained at length.

“Keep you when you find out it so like him?”, Tanya Arfin.

“Yes is not it, because at that time we have been deket and I already like Aa,, honestly yes at that time I was confused by what I felt to the Anas, he said, is it the love of a sister who always gives me advice that makes me a strong person, or the affection of the opposite sex as in general,,, or,, but when I met Bang Evan I did not have any feelings, other than when with Aa, so I prefer to avoid it. But at that time Bang Evan even sabotaged Mr. Udin and several times drove me to school, I had refused to argue with him but he did not give up and continued to force, he said, finally I'm ready for misfortune, and it doesn't change how I feel about him”.

“You said she once expressed her feelings for you, was she the man Ruby meant to shoot you romantically in the school hall first?”, Arfin remembered Ruby who imported it first.

“Not, it's so different again,,, “, replied Naz lightly.

“What,,, ? actually how many men have already declared their love for you?”, Arfin began to get upset.

“Emmm,, quite a lot if counted since still Junior High, but I do not memorize one by one his name, already, do, do not need to discuss it, deh,,, I do not know,, besides they all I have rejected because I have no feelings for them, and only Aa who managed to take my heart and make me klepek-klepek”, said Naz membombal when originally he felt nauseous.

“Iya, but also Aa was rejected”, Arfin brought up and did not feel they had reached the front gate of the house, but Arfin still turned on his car engine to stay cool inside.

“That's another story,,, I refused not because of not love, but because of force, the important thing is that now we're dating,,, if you're talking about Bang Evan, indeed he once asked me to be his girlfriend and I immediately rejected him on the grounds that Mother forbid me to date when I had no feelings for him. I've seen it like hiding her pain while discussing the reason she's not you to the parlour anymore, and now I know the reason for that is because it reminds her of Maira, and I think Bang Evan still loves Brother Maira behind her hatred. So Aa do not need to be jealous-jealousy Bang Evan again, in my heart there is only Aa and just love the same Aa,, if Aa continues just like that Aa can not trust me, Aa can not trust me, isn't one of the pillars that makes a relationship strong trust each other?”.

Arfin was speechless thinking, “I'm sorry I doubted your honesty, because I've known about it several times from others, I ask once again that we be open to each other about any issues”, Arfin spoke while staring at the steering wheel in front of him and turned towards Naz, “Do you love me as myself or as The Anas?”, Arfin suddenly questioned that.

Naz smiles at Arfin's question, “Aa once said when expressing your feelings to me that Aa loves me as Rheanazwa, loves me as Eleanoor, Loves me as your Light, but why not say Aa loves me as Harfi? “, Naz chuckles.

“Yes I love your Opa?”, replied Arfin with a knotty smile.

“Hahaha,, yes, yes, his brother is called one-on-one my first name and middle name, while my last name is in skip”, Naz said chuckling then he held the back of Arfin's hand, ”I also love you as the ANAS who is a friend in my virtual world who has always been there for me and who made me able to rise from my slump. I also love you as yourself, as Al Arifin Naufal Akbarsyah who is so real in front of me with all your attitudes and the way you treat me, I love everything in you and I love you without limits, is my answer enough to make you sure of me and not make you doubt me again?”, Naz asked as he looked into Arfin's eyes.

Arfin smiled and then he turned the hand that was being held by Naz until now he who held Naz's hand and kissed the back of his hand, they threw a smile at each other.

“Telus Nala love who?”, Tanya Nala who turned out to be awake, suddenly made Naz and Arfin surprised then both laughed at Nala's question.

“Nala is awake?”, asked Naz who has started to stop his laughter.

“Iya, Kak Nanas cama Om Apin Ipin belisik, so make Nala banun,, Nala again dream belmain cama Papa”, Nala grumbled annoyed.

“Papa?,, Papa who is ?”, asked Arfin astonished.

“Papa Evan,, “, the answer is excited.

"Papa Evan? Nala who said that?”, asked Naz.

“Kata Nena,, right Nena give photos Papa to Nala,, “ replied nala.

“Nena,,,? Nena who's A ?”, Naz asks Arfin.

“Nena is Mami, he asked to be called Nena with his grandchildren,, Yes I can not confirm Mami first, even play say again to Nala”, Arfin grumbled annoyed.

“Where's the papa? Why endak there?”, Nala rose from her sleep and looked to the back seat did not see the whereabouts of Nervan.

“Papa went home, Nala said earlier given a photo with Nena, where's the photo?”, asked Naz.

“There is in Nala's bag, but sssstttt yes don't say-cama Mama cama IyangUti”, nala said in a whispering tone as if afraid to be heard by others while sticking her index finger in the middle of her lips, then wiggling her index finger like a parent who was banning her child.

Arfin and Naz only looked at each other to see Nala's funny behavior, then they laughed because they felt anxious for Nala.

“Means Nala also don't tell anyone if we've finished the streets and met Papa yaa, so later Nala can meet with Papa again, so, if Nala says to someone else later Papa won't see Nala again,, ”, , Naz follows the way of his Mami Arfin to silence Nala and the boy nods and ignites Naz's request.

Then Arfin turned off his car engine and they got out of the car, Nala wanted to walk alone without being carried so Naz could help Arfin bring Nala enough groceries. After delivering Nala to Maira, they hitchhiked to pray first and after that they say goodbye home. Maira did not know about Nala's considerable groceries, so Naz hurried home, especially if Maira knew it was Nervan's gift, could be dangerous.

Now both of them are in the car on the way to take Naz home, “You must be tired yes,, mending you sleep aja, later if you have woken”, said Arfin.

“Aa is cheating, I just have to call Aa as a call dear and can't call you, but Aa call me you you keep,,, no call his dear what for me ?”, said Naz protest.

“Hahahha,, how long have we been trying to get in touch, how come you're protesting now anyway? So what do you want to call a dear from Aa hem..??”, asked Arfin to look at a glance.

“Don't know ah , think to yourself, I'm sleepy,,,,”, Naz instead crank and turn his face towards the car door window and close his eyes.
