The Love Story of Haifa

12. Take a Watch

Haifa attended the study together with the wives of Vishnu friends and the mothers of the study for one hour. While Vishnu along with his friends sat outside the house. Occasionally, the laughter of Vishnu and his friends is heard.

After the study mothers disbanded, Vishnu entered Reza's house and approached Haifa. Vishnu sat next to Haifa.

“Have finished his studies? Let's go home,” said Vishnu.

“Ayo,” says Haifa.

Just as Haifa was about to stand up suddenly Rina approached them.

“Haifa,-Wisnu let's eat first,” said Rina.

Haifa turned to Vishnu, asking for Vishnu's opinion. However, Rina pulls Haifa's hand and takes Haifa to the restaurant in the garage. There are various kinds of food, drinks and cakes.

“No, if you haven't eaten,” Rina told Haifa.

“Please choose where there is jamblang rice, there is baso noodles, there is siomay and konro coto. Over there are cookies and fruit ice. But there is no goat cooking menu, because the goats are for study mothers and orphans,” said Rina.

“Choose yourself, yes!” said Rina.

Then Rina left Haifa confused to choose food.

“What do you eat?” asked Vishnu who suddenly stood beside Haifa.

“Bingung, Mas,” replied Haifa who was choosing what to eat.

“If baso and siomay are common. Meningan you try jamblang rice and konro coto,” said Wisnu while pointing to the place of jamblang rice and konro coto.

“Sini we see.” Vishnu embraced Haifa's back and led Haifa to the table.

“Nasi jamblang typical food Cirebon. The rice wrapped in teak leaves is eaten using this side dish.” Vishnu showed to the side dishes of friends eating jamblang rice.

“You are, Mas,” Haifa said.

“The rice jamblangnya two, yes,” said Wisnu to the rice catering officer jamblang.

“How many packs, Mas?” ask the catering officer.

“How much do you want to pack the jamblang rice?” ask Vishnu to Haifa.

“One time,” Haifa replied.

“Mas, my sister a pack of her rice. If I have two packs,” said Vishnu.

With a swift catering officer opened the package of jamblang rice on a rattan plate that had been given a rice wrap paper base. Catering officers gave rattan plates to Haifa and Vishnu.

“Thank you,” says Haifa.

Haifa chose side dishes as a companion to eat jamblang rice. Haifa's eyes looked at the jengkol stew that looked tantalizing. Maybe if it was still in his village Haifa would have eaten jengkol stew. But while in Jakarta Haifa did not dare to eat it. However, he must keep the feelings of Vishnu. Haifa passed through the jengkol stew, she preferred another side dish.

After he finished eating, Haifa and Vishnu sat in a chair in the courtyard. Haifa sat next to his wife Goddess Iwan.

“Aa Vishnu, who is this?” ask the Goddess to Vishnu.

“My sister,” replied Vishnu.

“Lying, Mah. He mah kabogoh na Vishnu,” sahut Iwan. (Lying, Mah. He's Vishnu's girlfriend).

Haifa's face immediately lowered in embarrassment to hear Iwan's words.

“What's the name?” ask Goddess.

“Haifa.”

“Haifa college or work?” ask Goddess.

“Sedang job search, Tea,” Haifa reply.

“Aa Vishnu is the director, why not ask for work to Aa Vishnu?” ask Goddess.

Haifa turned to Vishnu, not knowing what to answer the question of the Goddess.

“Ari Mamah, prospective Mother Director mah no need to cape-cape work. Just sit sweetly at home,” said Iwan.

“Yes, Vishnu?” ask Iwan.

Vishnu responded with a smile. Haifa was embarrassed.

“Who is the candidate for Mother Director?” tanya Retno who sat next to Iwan.

“This is Vishnu,” Iwan refer Haifa.

Retno turned to Haifa who was blocked by Iwan and Dewi.

“Oh...that's Vishnu's candidate? I thought it was Vishnu's nephew. Very young,” said Retno.

“Pak Director of tea, the way is still seger,” said Iwan.

Spontaneous Goddess smacked her husband's arm.

“Papah can't do that!” exciting Goddess.

Haifa bowed in embarrassment at Iwan's joke.

“Sorry yes, Haifa. Aa Iwan does like that,” said Dewi.

Vishnu rubbed Haifa.

“Terusin again eat it,” says Vishnu.

“Iya, Mas,” Haifa replied.

Then Haifa continued eating. After the meal, Vishnu and Haifa returned home.

“Where are you going? How to hurry?” ask Rina.

“Here first, we get together. I rarely get together,” said Rina.

“You take Haifa for a walk,” replied Vishnu.

“Ya already, if you want to go for a walk. Have fun, yes,” said Rina then splash with Haifa.

“Often invite Haifa to play here,” said Rina.

“God willing,” replied Vishnu.

“Assalamualaikum,” says Vishnu and Haifa,

“Waalaikumsalam,” reply Rina.

Vishnu and Haifa came out of Rina's house, in front of them meeting Reza.

“Rez, I go home first,” says Vishnu.

“Where are you? Hurry up very?” ask Reza.

“You take Haifa for a walk,” replied Vishnu.

“Oke, have fun,” said Reza.

“Assalamualaikum,” says Vishnu.

“Waalaikumsalam,” reply Reza.

Vishnu and Haifa walked towards Vishnu's car.

“Now where are you going?” ask Vishnu while focusing on driving a car.

“Just go home, Mas. Later Mas Vishnu cape if driving frequently,” Haifa replied.

Vishnu turned to the side.

“You don't want to go for a walk?” ask Vishnu.

“Just go home, Mas. After all we have not prayed dzuhur,’ Haifa replied.

“We can pray dzuhur in the mosque,” said Wisnu while focusing on driving.

“How about we watch a movie?” vishnu's Proposition.

Haifa turned to Vishnu.

“Watch movies in theaters, Mas?” ask Haifa.

“Iya,” replied Vishnu.

“In the cinema mall yesterday?” ask Haifa.

“Don't be there. We watch in the cinema of another mall,” replied Vishnu.

Haifa was silent she thought for a moment. Actually Haifa also wanted to watch in the cinema, but he was afraid that if Vishnu too cape driving would affect his health.

“How?” vishnu asked while looking at Haifa.

“He was, Mas. But we pray first, yes! It's already one hour,” Haifa replied.

“Good, Neng Haifa,” replied Vishnu.

Then Vishnu launched his car to the mall which is near an office building located in the South Jakarta area.

“Mas far away mallnya,” says Haifa.

They were almost twenty minutes on the road but still had not arrived.

“Indeed deliberately to the mall a little far away, the name is also streets,” replied Vishnu who focused on driving his car.

A strip of Haifa street looking to the right and to the left sees the atmosphere of the capital Jakarta. Finally they arrived at the mall that was headed. Vishnu directly directs his car to the car park of the mall. Luckily Vishnu got a parking lot in P three which was a parking lot close to the musholla mall.

After parking his car Vishnu drove Haifa to a woman's mosque.

“This is a special mushollah for women, if the musholla man over there, "said Vishnu then pointed towards the opposite musholla woman.

“Later when you finish praying, don't go anywhere! Wait Mas here,” said Vishnu.

“Iya, Mas,” Haifa replied.

Vishnu waited for Haifa to enter the musholla, after which Vishnu went to the male musholla.
