The Love Story of Haifa

60. Apologizing.

After finishing breakfast Wira sat in the living room. Shortly after, Haifa followed with a cup of coffee.

“Diminished coffee, Mas,” says Haifa.

“Thank you,” said Wira then drank coffee made by Haifa.

After drinking his coffee Wira leaned his back against the chair while closing his eyes. After finishing breakfast, the woman felt heavy sleepiness. Moreover, Wira departed from Jakarta in the early morning so that the morning has arrived in Sumedang.

“Mas if cape, rest first in the room Dodi,” said Haifa.

“No need, just let it be here. I'm here because there's something I want to talk to you about,” replied Wira.

“Talk it later, now Mas rest first,” said Haifa.

“Awhile I first clean the Dodi room, so that Mas Wira can rest comfortably.”

Haifa headed to Dodi's room. While waiting for Haifa Wira to close her eyes for a while. Soon Haifa came and approached Wira. There was a soft snoring sound from the mouth of the hero.

“Yes, already in bed,” Haifa said when she saw Wira sleeping soundly in the chair.

Haifa patted the base of Wira's arm.

“Mas. Move to room, yes,” says Haifa.

The hero wakes up.

“Her sleep moved to Dodi's room,” Haifa said.

Wirapun. Then he got out of his chair and followed Haifa to Dodi's room.

“Sorry, the room is small and there is no air conditioning,” Haifa said.

“Nothing,” replied Wira.

“Now Mas rest first.”

Haifa left Wira alone in Dodi's room and then closed the door.

“Wira where?” euis' mother asked when she saw Haifa coming out of Dodi's room.

“Sleep in room Dodi,” Haifa replied.

“Let him rest first, it looks like he cape once,” Mother Euis said.

Suddenly, Alifa's voice cried.

“Eeekkkkk.”

“Haifa to room first, want to see Alifa,” says Haifa.

Euis' mother returned to the kitchen to continue cooking.

At one o'clock in the afternoon Dodi came home from school.

“Assalamualaikum,” said Dodi when entering the house.

“Waalaikumsalam,” Haifa replied while holding Alifa.

When Dodi was about to open the door of his room, Haifa said, "Don't be noisy, there is Mas Wira sleeping.”

Dodi did not go into his room.

“When did Mas Wira come?” ask Dodi.

“Tadi mornings, Tetap time again to the market,” Haifa replied.

“Log into his room slowly!” haifa.

Slowly Dodi went into his room, before long he came out again while carrying clothes.

“Later if you have changed clothes, wake up Mas Wira. He has not prayed dzuhur and has not eaten,” Haifa said.

“Iya, Tea,” Dodi replied.

Dodipun walked to the bathroom to change his clothes. Shortly after, Dodi came out of the bathroom and went back into his room. A few minutes later Wira came out of the room with Dodi. Then he approached Haifa who was holding Alifa. The head of Alifa.

“Sholat first, Mas. It's bad luck,” Haifa said.

“Iya,” Reply Wira.

Wirapun walked to the bathroom for ablution. Shortly thereafter Wira came out of the bathroom and returned to Dodi's room for dzuhur prayers. A quarter of an hour later Wira came out of Dodi's room.

“Eat first, Mas,” says Haifa.

The hero then sits at the dining table joining Dodi who is having lunch.

“You didn't eat?” ask Wira to see that Haifa did not come to eat with her.

“So already ate together with Mamah and Sri,” Haifa replied.

Lunch with Dodi.

After finishing the meal, Wira sat back in the living room.

“White water only,” replied Wira.

Haifa went to the kitchen to get a glass of water for the hero.

“Sini, Alfanya Mamah.”

Euis' mother took Alifa from Haifa's hand. Haifa freely took a drink for the Hero.

Haifa put a glass of water on the table and sat down in the living room chair.

“Can we talk now? But not here. We just talk outside,” Wira said.

Haifa replied with a nod. However, their business must be resolved properly.

“Haifa ask permission first to Mamah,” Haifa said.

Haifapun moved into the house and a few minutes later Haifa had changed clothes neatly. Euis' mother followed Haifa from behind while holding Alifa.

“Tante, Wira excuse me. Want to take Haifa out,” Wira told Euis's mother.

“Iya, please,” replied Ibu Euis.

“Alifa, Om borrow his Mom first,” Wira told Alifa.

But the cute baby even plays his spit.

“Mas, home bring souvenirs,” said Dodi who stood behind Mother Euis.

“Siap,” replied Wira.

By reflex Euis's mother hit Dodi.

“You are so shy. Like asking to Mas Wira,” exclaimed Mother Euis.

“It's okay, Auntie,” Wira said with a smile.

“Tuh said Mas Wira also did not mind,” said Dodi.

“You guys have left. Ignore Dodi request,” said Ibu Euis.

“Yah..Mamah,” said Dodi with disappointment.

“We go first, Auntie. Assalamualaikum,” says Wira.

“Waalaikumsalam,” replied Ibu Euis.

Wira and Haifapun walk towards the Wira car parked on empty land.

*****

Haifa took Wira to the cafe with a view of the city of Sumedang from the top of the hill.

“Here is the place?” asked the amazed Wira to see the cafe with an outdoor atmosphere on the hill.

“Iya, Mas,” Haifa replied.

Wira and Haifa got out of the car and walked to the cafe. Haifa chose an outdoor table with a panoramic view of Mount Tampomas. A waiter approached them, ordering drinks and snacks. After the servant left, Haifa started to open her voice.

“Mas Wira want to talk what?” ask Haifa.

“I want to apologize to you for what I did. I didn't mean to harass you. You are different from the women I know. You and Alifa mean a lot to me. I left Bangkok and came back here just for you guys. I intend to proceed to an even more serious relationship,” Wira said.

“Sorry, Mom. Haifa has not been able to accept other men into our lives. Haifa still cannot forget Mas Vishnu,” Haifa replied.

The hero smiled despite the pain of Haifa's refusal.

“It's okay. But tomorrow I hope you come back to Jakarta. Poor Mamah lonely. The next day I have to leave for Bangkok,” Wira said.

Haifa was shocked to hear that.

“Mas Wira want to go to Bangkok? How long?” ask Haifa.

“I have work to do there. And don't know how long it's been there. Maybe I'll take back their offer to work there,” replied Wira.

Haifa's face instantly pale when she heard him.

“Mas Wira will be long there?” ask Haifa.

“Iya,” Reply Wira.

Somehow hearing Wira's reply made Haifa's heart sad.

Shortly thereafter the waiter came to take their order.

“Have you not thought about it. Anyway all your needs and Alifa will still be fulfilled,” said Wira.

“Iya, Mas,” Haifa replied.

This time it was Haifa who was difficult to swallow her food and drink.
