The Moon is Split

Solehah

"Sir, Arzie ... How are you, brother?"

Arzie looked at the hijab-wearing woman. He looked and thought who the woman who greeted him was. His face is beautiful, his hijab and his robe make the heart shade that sees it. From the way he spoke he was like knowing the woman.

"Why Arzie's sister, dumbass?!"

"Sorry, I forgot who you are?!"

Haha....

The hijab woman laughed. He smiled looking at Arzie.

"I'm Kirani, Brother. Forgot?"

"Kira???!!!"

"Yes!"

"What is Kirani Fauzia Chandani?"

"Yes"

"Yes, geez. Brother Arzie until pangling sees you. You are so beautiful in hijab. Alhamdulillah ..."

"Thank you, Brother"

"We'll have a chat first, come on ... Long time no see. We're looking for a comfortable place"

Kira follows Arzie's steps towards the car park. Arzie politely opened the door of his car, then he sat in the back seat of the wheel. They headed for a restaurant in the middle of the city located in a shopping center.

"Where have you been all this time, Dek. Your phone is no longer active"

Kira smiled in response to Arzie's question. It's been two years that she hasn't seen Arzie. The last time he ascended second grade Junior High. He is currently in tenth grade.

"My grandmother and I moved a cheaper contract closer to my High School. Now grandma is sickly so she can no longer sell in the market. All the goods that I have, including my cell phone, are sold to pay for rent and necessities of life. I also helped my grandmother sell cakes at school. Good for school tuition, brother".

Arzie. There was a bit of pain and tenderness at the end of his heart hearing the story of the woman in front of him. For two years he did not meet, apparently so much suffering experienced by the girl.

"I'm sorry, Brother Arzie. Brother Arzie doesn't know how you are right now. Brother Arzie long looking for you. But thank goodness we can meet again today"

"This is coming, Brother Arzie yuk"

"Where, Brother?"

Arzie takes him to the biggest mall in town, he buys a new cell phone from Kerbaru for Kira.

"This is a new phone for you, do not be rejected if you refuse, Brother Arzie can be angry"

"But brother, this is expensive stuff. I can't take anything this expensive"

"Sister Arzie, I told you no. Don't refuse. This is so that if there's anything you can contact Arzie as soon as possible. Yep... Take ..."

"But, Sister ..."

Arzie doesn't care about Kirani's rejection. He paid for the phone with his first cash card. Kirani felt bad about receiving so much kindness from the handsome man. She has no relationship with him, but Arzie is very good with her.

Arzie ushered in Kirani his new contract.pajero sport Arzie parked in the field at the end of the alley. Kirani rented house is located in a small densely populated village on the edge of the city. A place not worthy of being called home, Arzie thought.

Up there, Grandma was asleep in her room. His claustrophobic breath was clearly heard in the ear. Face pale.

"What sick granny, Deck?"

"High blood and asthma, brother"

"Have you been taken to the doctor?"

"Have been to the puskesmas. Grandma didn't want to go to the doctor. Grandma said doctors and hospitals are expensive"

"Don't do it, Deck. Your grandmother's health and well-being should take precedence. About the cost so that Brother Arzie will bear it"

"No need, brother. I don't want to trouble Arzie again. Thank you"

I heard Grandma calling from inside. Kirani hurried inside. He brought me water and ate for Grandma. Grandma asked him to put egg porridge on her. Kirani made it immediately.

Arzie saw the woman struggling alone. She was truly a righteous woman who sincerely took care of her ailing grandmother alone. The greater his admiration for the figure of Kirani Fauzia Chandani.
