     Aulia lowered her head so as not to be greeted by Rangga. He was afraid that if he kept talking he would get caught if it was him. During this time, when he spoke with Rangga always used a flat or firm tone, in contrast to the past who often spoke in a spoiled and polite tone.

"Hey, what's wrong? Tumben came early in the morning here," asked Alvan as he looked up at Rangga.

"Do you need a special reason to see you?" ask Rangga back.

"Yes, not really. It's just that, usually if you come in this way there must be a desire," replied Alvan.

"We should talk in your office only," said Rangga. He glanced at Aulia.

"You, Aulia?" ask Rangga.

"Yes," replied Aulia briefly.

"Do you know Aulia?" alvan asked in a surprised tone.

"Just know, only. She's Ustadz Yusuf's granddaughter, I think I told you once, when I said there was a hijab girl who reminded me of Aulia, my lover. Moreover, their names are also the same, Aulia," explained Rangga.

"Oh, yes." Alvan nodded his head.

    The three men entered the elevator together. Only Rangga talked a lot between them, Alvan only answered briefly, and Aulia was silent a thousand bases only to be a listener.

"Aulia, you sit there. You can help me check if there's any typo writing or incorrect numbers from the report given by Mario or Yukari," alvan and Aulia sat at the side table to the right of Alvan's table.

     Rangga looked at Alvan who was looking at the niqob-wearing girl with a warm gaze. He felt that his best friend liked the quiet girl.

"Alvan, do you like Aulia?" asked Rangga in a whisper.

"It's normal" replied Alvan lying.

"Goodoo. Because she already has a husband," continued Rangga and made Alvan choke.

"Husband?" alvan asked in disbelief because clearly Aulia herself said that she had a husband later would stop working because she wanted to become a housewife.

"Yes, it used to be our wedding day at the same time. I met her future husband first. His name is Ahmad, he is a very kind and friendly person" replied Rangga.

'Ahmad. What kind of man is he?' inner Alvan.

"I didn't know he was going to work for you. As far as I know where he lives is far from here" added Rangga.

"He made a mistake" Alvan replied.

"His mistake?" ask Rangga curiously.

"He broke this company agreement with PT. White Cempaka," replied Alvan.

"What's? It is not that cooperation with large companies and certainly can be a very large investment aid," said Rangga.

"Hn," replied Alvan.

"Oh, yes. I forgot my purpose for coming here. I got word about Aulia," Rangga said happily.

"You will be deceived again. You've been looking for him for five years. Not giving up yet" said Alvan.

"Until any time I will never stop looking for him," said Rangga while leaning his back against the back of the chair.

      Aulia suddenly stiffened her body. He felt dislike for the actions of Rangga who did not stop looking for him.

"What information did you get this time?" ask Alvan.

"I got word that Aulia used to have an accident and our baby died from a miscarriage" Rangga replied.

"So, your son died and Aulia's whereabouts is now out of nowhere. Do you still want to look for him?" ask Alvan.

"Yes, of course. It's not like I said that before" replied Rangga.

"I won't give up until I can confirm with my own eyes that Aulia is happy. I want the woman I love to smile happily and no more tears from her beautiful neutrality" Rangga said.

      Aulia's heart was roped again when she heard Rangga's words. He knew very well that Rangga was a very loyal person to him. He would do anything for her to be happy.

'O Allah, strengthen the heart and faith of your servant, ' in Aulia.

      Almost an hour Rangga talked to Alvan. Meanwhile, Aulia was just sitting sweetly on her desk. He started working when Yukari gave several piles of maps of the work of employees from several divisions. Aulia read word by word on the sheet checking if there was an error in typing.

     Aulia felt grateful that there was a mosque near the office building complex there. He also got acquainted with several people who worked either in the same company or from different companies.

"Sir, where are you going for lunch?" ask Aulia.

"Hn, why don't you make it for my lunch?" avenged Alvan looked at Aulia with annoyance.

"Do I have to make it too? I guess it's buy it so in the office cafeteria or restaurant out there," I don't understand Aulia.

"From tomorrow you prepare a meal for me. Starting from breakfast, lunch, and dinner," said Alvan with a sharp gaze did not want to be denied by Aulia.

"If I am the cook, he is afraid it is not in accordance with the taste in the tongue of the Master," said Aulia.

"I don't have any specific food allergies, so it's safe to eat anything unless you put poison in the food" Alvan teased Aulia.

"Astaghfirullahal'adzim, sir. It never crossed my mind to do such a thing," Aulia argued with annoyance and clucked into taking Alvan's words seriously.

"We eat at the restaurant that is in the intersection of five only," invited Alvan and Aulia also pushed Alvan's wheelchair.

'Sabar Aulia's. Patient in the love of God. As long as he does not oppress you, just follow his will, Aulia.

     In the afternoon Aulia came home to deliver Alvan, she also prepared a change of clothes and made dinner for him. The waiters there felt strange, why Aulia even though cooking, even though there was already a chef. However, they were all silent in fear that the host would get angry.

"Miss, what are you cooking?" ask the butler.

"Hm, just vegetables. I saw a lot of vegetables in the fridge. I want to cook spinach vegetables because I'm in a hurry to go home," replied Aulia with her hands busy preparing spices.

     Not so long ago, vegetable spinach, fried tempeh, and fried fish Aulia had prepared and assisted by two servants. He also makes tomato juice because there are so many red tomatoes in the refrigerator.

"Sir, the food is ready, you just have to eat. I am allowed to go home because there is a lecture event at the mosque near the house" said Aulia.

"Yes, you've just come home" replied Alvan.

     Aulia got home so adhan Magrib, she quickly took a shower and prayed. RT's mother called him as soon as Aulia finished praying. He answered and rushed out of the house.

"Now you work?" ask Bu RT.

"Yes, ma'am" replied Aulia.

"Bu RT, Ustadz gave a lecture this week on the handsome Ustadz part, right?" ask a mother who had come with Ms. RT to Aulia's house.

"Yes, that's why many mothers who eagerly go to the mosque," replied Ms. RT with a smile.

"The Ustadz is young, you know," Bu RT whispered to Aulia.

"Usually they were married despite being young," Aulia joked back.

"I don't think he has a wife" the other mothers replied.

"Yeah, in! We have to sit in the front row so we can see the handsome face," RT said, pulling Aulia's hand into the mosque.

***

You know who the Ustadz is. Will there be an arranged marriage by the study mothers to Aulia? Rangga was still unyielding looking for Aulia, why was that? Wait for it to go, yeah!
