To be the Third

To be the Third
The Love of Ikbal



Happy Reading😘😘


It has been 1 week, now Alwi's situation has improved. Today her plan is to go to the supermarket, to buy some monthly necessities. Because in her house is still her mother, Eve so calmly left Alwi shopping.


Mother Eve has been there for 5 days with her sister's daughter. Coincidentally the Princess again had school holidays, so she joined together to surabaya. But Umar had returned to the village, because he had to harvest cucumbers in the field. He only spent 2 days in Surabaya.


'' Buk, Eve Tipped Alwi yes! The milk has been put in the frezer, then the mother just soak in warm water. Nisa also understands Buk!'' said Eve while glancing at Nisa who was eating her food.


'' Relax, I understand!'' said Nisa while holding 2 thumbs up.


Eve kissed her mother's hand, and walked outside. He rode the motorcycle to get to the supermarket. But unfortunately, in the middle of the road the motorcycle tire ojek was leaking. So Eve had to come down.


'' Sorry, Neng, the motorcycle tire is leaking!'' said the taxi man.


'' Yes sir, no papa! I take the angkot only later in front.'' replied Eve while handing over 20 rb money.


Finished paying the fare. Eve also walked towards the highway, indeed the village that Eve lived was quite entered from the highway, but still can be entered by a car.


Arriving from the front, Eve saw Ikbal's car coming and stopped in front of her. Ikbal came down shortly. '' Loh, Wa. Where you going? How about on foot?'' ask Ikbal in surprise..


'' This is my sister, I want to go to the supermarket, want to buy monthly necessities!'' answer Eve


'' Yasudah, I'll take you! I just happened to be going to your house.''


'' But Brother, I.....''


'' No rejection.'' cut Ikbal.


Finally Eve got into Ikbal's car, and went to the supermarket. The beginning of Eve looks awkward, because the first new this is one car together with Ikbal. There was always Nisa and Alwi.


But Ikbal who saw that, immediately started the conversation and eliminated the awkwardness between them. Ikbal is good at melting the atmosphere, to make Eve laugh freely.

Eve is now in the supermarket with Ikbal. He's the one shopping while Ikbal's riding the trolley. During the delivery of Eve shopping, Ikbal's mind was always on Eve.


He was confused whether to state his feelings now or not. Because very rarely he and Eve walk both like this, even almost never.


' Viks, I'll say it to Eve when I come home later.' Ikbal's inner


He'll receive whatever answer Eve's gonna give him. Such as Eve refused Ikbal would sincerely accept her. But for now there is nothing wrong with fighting and trying first.


'' Brother, we're home!'' said Eve when she saw all had been bought


'' No one is missing?'' asked Ikbal to make sure, Eve immediately shook her head.


Finally they walked towards the cashier. And when Eve was about to pay, Ikbal suddenly prevented her. '' Let me, Wa.''


'' But sister, this is not my groceries?'' say bad air


'' No papa! Let me just.''


Eventually Ikbal took out an ATM and paid for all of Eve's groceries. After they finished they headed to the car to go home, because the day had begun. And Eve was very worried about Alwi, afraid she was fussy looking for her.


Ikbal drove with a little look glanced at Eve. He wanted to talk but his lips felt like a hoax. His heart had even been pounding strongly since in the car earlier.


'' Brother, why? How come I mulu?'' ask Eve.


Eve saw Ikbal keep glancing at her, she could see from the tail end of her eyes. Eve was curious, but she kept quiet. But the old Ikbal glance made Eve uncomfortable, and she finally asked too.


'' Just why brother?''


'' It's just...... I'm.......''


'' If anyone wants you to say, just say brother!''


Ikbal finally pulled his car over to the road. Then he took a deep breath, as if he was throwing a burden on his heart.


'' No, there's really something I want to say to you! Far, far away days.'' said Ikbal with his body facing Eve.


But Eve still sat facing forward with a straight look.


'' What's brother?''


Silent


Ikbal like gathering his courage first, he is preparing his heart if Eve later rejects herself.


'' Brother, what would you say?'' ask Eve again.


'' Eve, I have been in love with you for a long time! Since you were Adam's wife. I know it's wrong, but I can't erase this feeling even after trying! Because now you and Adam are no longer together. And your time is up too, so I dare to express my feelings for you.


I know, if you're still not ready to weave the household ark back. But Wa, not all men are like Adam. I can't promise, but I will always try to be faithful and open! I learned a lot from your household and Adam first! I learned, how to appreciate his wife and love her!


I also loved Alwi, and considered him as my own son. Wa, do you want to marry me?'' say Ikbal at length.


Eve gasped in shock when she heard Ikbal's words. He did not expect that this handsome man had put his heart on him all along. All her attention, Eve thought only because she considered Eve as her younger sister. But Eve was wrong.


He was silent, his self was still shocked at the conversation Ikbal love on his. Eve is still confused as to what answer she should give Ikbal.


''Brother, are you no longer joking?'' ask Eve to make sure.


Ikbal. '' No Wa! I'm serious.'' sure Ikbal.


'' But sister, I am a widow.'' said Eve


'' For me to want a widow or not, if the heart has said, then we cannot lie.''


Eve silently sculpted. For him everything was very fast and totally unexpected.


'' How?'' ask Ikbal again.


Eve sighed, with her head lowered. Then take her body back.


'' Brother, you know that I am still traumatized, with my household first! I need some time to think about her sister!'' said Hawa.


'' All right, I'll give you 1 week. And then I'll ask you for your answer! And whatever your answer will be, I'm sincere and will be chesty explained Ikbal.


Eve smiled. '' Thank you, Kaka, because I want to understand. And thank you for being honest with me!''


Ikbal nodded, then the car drove back. And on the way there was no talk. Eve was still very surprised by the fact that she got a few minutes ago. He was actually neutralizing his heartbeats that were racing with fast begity, when Ikbal expressed his feelings earlier.


I'll wait for Wa, until you accept me! I will ask God to be my wife.


Seriate.........
