The Not A Dream Marriage

The Not A Dream Marriage
Section 5 (BOOK STORE)



A very boring weekend, of course, for late-level students who are busy composing a thesis can only spend time struggling with a laptop screen and a stack of paper that has been printed repeatedly.


“Huh, this material is only in the book but no one has the book. How's this dong? You have to go to the bookstore nih.”


Salsa mused on whom she would go to the Mall to buy the books she desperately needed.


Loveably granddaughter arrives, Reza calls Salsa invites him out just walk already fresh sipping or watch a movie to spend the weekend with her.


“Hallo baby, you get ready well! I've been on my way to your house. I want to take a walk in the afternoon.”


“Iya dear very impromptu rich know round. But it just so happens that I want to buy the book I need in the Deket Mall Bookstore, you want all my friends?”


“Syap mrs Reza Hermawan, yaudah hunted gih there andand but do not be beautiful well later many have a crush again, hehe.”


“Iya dear, yaudah bye dear.”


Salsa ended the call, changing busily in search of clothes that fit her.


Reza had until he looked engrossed in chatting with mamah and bang Sam until unconscious Salsa was already standing behind him.


“Hayooo, talking me well bang?”


“Iiihh ge-errr lu, I again talked a secret about men disturbing aja lu Ca,” replied Bang Sam.


Mama just smiled shaking her head.


“Mah, Bang Sam, Reza same Salsa go first well. Assalamualaikum.” Pamit Reza's


“Waalaikumsalam, do not go home well if you can go home before dinner so you can have dinner together papah.”


“InsyaAllah mah, let's Ca we leave.”


Reza drives his car at a moderate speed he does not want time to pass with his girl, he loves the woman in front of him at this time, a very simple, beautiful and smart woman.


Throughout the journey Reza continued to look at his lover, until he saw only able to smile shyly.


“Ja don't see me rich so dong, I'm ashamed tau.” I don't know how red Salsa's face is right now.


“Emang why? Abis wrong yourself you are very beautiful. I told you not to be pretty Ca.”


“What the hell is your exaggeration, I ga dandan know just pack lipbalm aja.”


“Begini aja already beautiful ca, whose son sigh? Mr Joni's son huh? Hehe.” Reza Temptation


“Iihhh you.. I say papah lohh later.”


“Hehe cananda darling.” Reza grasps Salsa hand tightly it feels like the trip to the Mall is long.


The Mall


They arrived at the Mall.


“Journey from home here almost an hour, even though if the same sir Ali delivered at least 15 minutes udah until.”


They laughed again imagining the upset of the drivers because Reza drove his car really very slowly.


Reza removed Salsa's seatbelt and opened the door. They walked around the Mall before heading to the Bookstore. Along the way Reza's hand did not release his grip on Salsa.


*****


“Ke Mall xx? Thanks for the info, bro."


Tutt's.. Tutt's.. Tutt's phone has been disconnected.


“What's so sudden you? We just arrived and have not ordered food.”


“If you eat just order, order whatever you want but don't stop me from going.”


The man left just like that leaving the beautiful woman before him without looking at him for a second.


When passing by a jewelry store Salsa really likes a pair of pendants, but when he asked the price was very expensive Salsa did not buy. He also forbade Reza to buy it because the price is quite fantastic.


After washing his eyes around the Mall and shopping Salsa pulled up Reza's arm and invited him to stop by the Bookstore to buy some books he needed to work on the thesis. Not long after Reza said goodbye to go to the toilet.


Reza left his own lover, in fact he did not have the heart to leave Salsa alone but Reza had to immediately return to the jewelry store he had visited with Salsa to buy a pair of Pendants that Salsa wanted.


“Mbak, the pendant that a pair of earlier was appointed by my future wife is there still? I saw that the mannequin had changed models" asked Reza.


“Sorry it has been sold sir, someone just bought it" replied the store clerk.


Reza again asked if there was still the exact same stock as the pendant that Salsa wanted. But it is very dear pendant that Salsa wants is classified as limited stock and there is only one pair.


Reza came out of the jewelry store feeling disappointed because he failed to want to surprise his lover.


“Reza, REZA HERMAWAAAANNN.” Shouted one of the women from the escalator.


Reza stopped his steps trying to find the source of the voice calling out to him. The woman ran to him.


“Reza, geez I didn't think I could meet you here.”


Reza knew the woman who called him April, an old friend of Reza's when he was studying in a neighboring country.


“April, so long ago I did not see you. Now moving to Indonesia?” Reza asked back.


“Iya I moved to Indonesia continue my parents business, you how are you married yet?”


“But.” Reza answered with a smile, they talked long enough to exchange contact. After finishing saving the beautiful-eyed woman's contact Reza pamit left her. The nostalgia with April made her forget the existence of Salsa who was definitely waiting for her. The two old friends separated.


With Be-Te Salsa's face waiting for Reza in front of the bookstore. Reza came with a sweet smile looking at her cute looking lover like that.


“Have a baby? Sorry well long.”


“Where are you from Ja? I'm waiting for you, the book is still at the cashier because I can't pay so I stay there.”


Reza just laughed, obviously Salsa could not pay because he did not bring any money at all. Reza went to the cashier to pick up the books that Salsa had bought, when he was about to pay for them, suddenly the cashier told him that the book Salsa had paid for.


“Have been paid? But my boyfriend said he hasn't paid Mbak.”


“Already sir, already paid all please taken his book.”


Reza passed by leaving the cashier's desk. Arriving at the house Reza did not tell his lover anything about the book that has been paid. Reza thought that there might be a kind person who could not bear to see Salsa, and he paid for the books of Salsa.


***********


The feeling of flowering is perched in the recesses of a woman who is reunited with the man who once decorated her day.


Yes, Reza Hermawan is the man she was referring to.


Even his Reza never changed, still with charismatic good looks.


April clutched her phone tightly. A smile continued to accompany the departure of the man he had just greeted.


"Lord, if only....." Instantly his heart felt soft.
