The Lost Pearl
#48 thank you
in the afternoon before the magrib, Ian arrived at the Dewi residence.
Ian rang the doorbell several times and the door opened.
his mother Goddess invited Ian to enter while waiting for Ara, Ian sat in the living room while having a little chat with his mother goddess.
Ara and Goddess came out of the room and went down to meet ian.
"it turned out to be.."
said Ara then sat down next to Ian and kissed the back of her hand.
"teruuus, teruuus, keep your romantic-romantic in front of me.."
ledek Dewi on his two best friends.
"meatya Lo spout in the halalin there.."
answer ara no less literate.
without waiting for a long time because he did not want there to be a long debate between Ara and Goddess, Ian decided to say goodbye to his mother Goddess.
her mother Goddess seemed to understand and she just smiled.
arriving in front of the terrace of the house of the Goddess.
"we say yes ma'am, assalamualaikum.."
"yes, waalaikumsalam, be careful on the way.."
Ara and Ian went home.
along the way, Ara shared everything she heard today with her husband, Ian only listened and occasionally said, "heehm, oh, yes, continue" because Ian also has to focus on the streets.
ara's story ended when the two of them had arrived at their home.
"continue, Dewi wants Dateng ?"
"he said yes, just don't know either.."
the question and answer between Ara and ian about the story of Dewi was ended when the two had to clean up and prepare for congregational prayer.
from this afternoon, when the food that the Goddess sent to Jo was in front of Jo, Jo immediately opened it and ate it, after finishing eating, Jo also contacted Dewi to say thank you.
when the phone connection is connected Jo felt surprised because Dewi did not answer him but instead refused his call. shortly afterwards Dewi gave a message to Jo that in her house now there is Ara. jo finally understood and they both exchanged messages.
due to the demands of the job, Jo must refrain from always communicating with the Goddess while at work.
today Jo intends to come to the house of the Goddess after the magrib. Jo wants to invite the Goddess to just take a walk in the city park.
Jo also arrived at the house of Dewi, the goddess who had been waiting on the porch since she smiled as Jo's car entered the yard.
Jo gets out of the car, approaches the goddess and Jo is stunned by the appearance of the goddess tonight.
"why ?"
"beautiful.."
"what the hell.."
"oh yeah, which mom ?"
"there, I call you first.."
shortly after the Goddess entered, the goddess came out again with her mother.
"Mom, let me take the goddess for a little walk.."
"yes, please, be careful on the road ya.."
Jo and the goddess kissed the back of her mother's hand, and then they got into the car and went to the place they had decided.
along the way there were no heavy conversations, only small talk and smiles of happiness between the two of them.
when they arrived at the place they were headed, namely the city park, they also entered and went around holding hands (when people were dating in general).
when they see an empty bench, they choose to sit on the bench.
they sit side by side, with the view of the city park full of beautiful garden lights make the romantic impression even more felt.
while they were chatting casually, Jo asked what she wanted to know from the Goddess.
"do you want Dateng to the invitation ?"
The goddess who heard the sudden question from Jo was also directly staring at Jo with a difficult gaze.
"it's not rich.."
replied the Goddess while turning her gaze the other way.
"why ?"
"not why.."
"we have come.."
"us ?"
"yeah.."
"why do you want us to come.."
"because I'd like to show you your ex, if you can get a better man than him.."
after hearing the answer from Jo Dewi could not say anything, with his reflexes the Goddess immediately embraced Jo with teary eyes that had held back tears.
Jo who was suddenly in the hug was only able to accept the Goddess' embrace and caress her hair.
"thank you.."
said Goddess is still in Jo's arms.
The Goddess let go of her embrace, then sat down as before but with her head resting on Jo's shoulder and Jo's hand clutching her shoulder.The two of them enjoyed this night with great affection.
after being satisfied with the time they had spent together, they decided to go home.
along the way in the car, Jo continues to hold the hand of the Goddess even though the one hand must keep driving.
at the Goddess' house. Jo also came down and delivered the Goddess to the terrace of her house.
"call mom there, I'll say goodbye.."
The goddess came in and called her mother.
"Mom, Jo said yes, sorry if Jo nganterin Dewi rather late.."
"it's okay, the important thing is that you're safe.."
Jo kissed her mother's hand and then said goodbye and went home.
the goddess felt lucky because now she had Jo, who was always there for her, who always understood her circumstances, who could always rely on her anytime and anywhere in any circumstances.
I don't know what would have happened to the Goddess if she hadn't met Jo, maybe she would have kept everything alone, although the goddess had a mother and a friend who understood her circumstances but still she also needed someone right to discuss with.

when you are alone, God is always with you.
when you feel that no one wants to listen to your complaints, honestly God always listens to every complaint of every servant.
when you feel down and broken, God is testing you to be someone stronger.
it may be easier to fight with others despite life stakes, but fighting with yourself is the real war, how can we control/control ourselves, how can we control ourselves, making peace with your heart and mind is a difficult thing to do.
