Sunday morning Anitha got a call. "Tha, today I can't see you. Uda there is a need. Tomorrow at noon I'll pick you up at the campus, yes" said Sahrul canceled his promise last night.
Anitha, who felt she had no rights, replied, "Well, Uda." There was a bit of disappointment in Anitha's heart.
Anitha finally just helped her mother make the house better. He started from the room that was included neat and clean. Anitha just swapped the position of the furniture in her room.

Monday morning ....
"Today's college?" Sahrul sends WhatsApp chat messages.
"Uda Lecture."
"Until what time is college?"
"At 12 less."
"OK on later I'll pick you up."
"Yes" Anitha answered briefly.
This afternoon Anitha was preparing to leave with Sahrul. Anitha waited minute by minute, second by second the lecture broke up.
Anitha felt her phone vibrate. "Hi, uda is waiting for you in front of the mini market of the University" wrote WhatsApp.
"Ok, 10 minutes away from Uda," Anitha replied to Sahrul's chat. He smiled knots while paying attention to what was in the lecturer's infokan.
"Who? It's so nice to look," whispered Ajeng slowly.
"Friends," Anitha answered briefly.
"What friend is a friend?"
"Seriously friend," said Anitha.
"Promise to meet?" ask again.
"Yes, just take a walk. You wanna come?" tawar Anitha's.
"No, I have an extra lecture. You're good to pass the kemaren. I repeat," said Ajeng. He's still in at 1pm. The teacher decided not to go home.
Anitha went home more often by herself. Although Ajeng no additional lectures they almost never together, unless there are additional tasks. Anitha was rejoicing to meet Sahrul.
"I go first, yes" said Anitha to Ajeng.
"OK."
Anitha stepped out of the room. Anitha continued to walk calmly. He's headed to the university gate.
He just wanted to send a WhatsApp message to Sahrul. One message has gone into his phone, "There's in the black car xxxx plate."
Anitha noticed three cars of the same color. After he found the license plate of the car in question, he approached. Anitha knocked on the car glass door hesitantly.
Sahrul, who heard the car's glass door being knocked, turned his head. Sahrul who was laying down and then got up and opened the car door. Anitha took a step back so that her body was not knocked by the door of Sahrul's car that was being opened.
"Hello Tha, come on in," Sahrul was so attentive to deliver Anitha and open the car door.
"Thank you Uda" Anitha said before Sahrul turned back and sat behind the wheel. Sahrul only gave a small nod.
"What do you want to eat?" bargain Sahrul on Anitha. Sahrul started driving towards the city center.
"Just be there" replied Anitha.
"There's no selling of Tha" joked Sahrul.
"If only Uda sells, then" Anitha replied.
They chose a cafe that was not too big. Anitha only ordered a bowl of soto medan and a glass of mango juice, while Sahrul also ordered soto medan and a glass of coffee.
Since then Sahrul so often pick up Anitha in front of the mini market. Sahrul never wanted to pick up in front of the campus directly. The reason he was disinclined by Anitha's friends. Although for Anitha it makes no sense, because love all makes sense. Without Anitha knows Sahrul is afraid of being confused with Ajeng who is on campus with Anitha. It's just that Sahrul didn't expect them to know each other.
It has not felt like three months of their closeness. Sahrul almost never absent to pick up or say hello to Anitha during the night.
One afternoon when Sahrul picks up Anitha, Sahrul takes Anitha on a padang beach. They were sitting on a big rock on the beach. They saw the waves that were chasing and left ripples on the beach.
"Tha, someone will tell you, '" said Sahrul softly.
"We've known three months. The more you know the more you like you. Uda fell in love with you" Sahrul said feelingly.
Anitha who heard Sahrul say, her white face became red. His chest was pounding much stronger than before. It was as if he was ready for a 10-round marathon of a basketball court. Anitha just kept quiet. Secretly but willingly.
Sahrul is no longer a plain teenager like Anitha. Anitha's reddened attitude and face were a sign to her if her love did not clap one hand.
"She's welcome?" sahrul still wants certainty. Anitha gave a small nod still with her head bowed. Sahrul smile. Not wasted his efforts these three months. Love greets.
"Can you call me darling now?" seductive she immediately called Anitha with a call of affection. Sahrul also ruffled Anitha's hair.
Anitha still replied with a nod of her head. Anitha was embarrassed to death. Shame but want. Makes Sahrul anxious to see his timid attitude.
"Ok, then let's go home. It'll be dusk soon" Sahrul said.
"Come," said Anitha.
Sahrul always opens the car door for Anitha. Anitha felt, "you are the star of the moon."
Once in the car, Sahrul has no sign of turning the ignition of his car. Still holding the steering wheel with his right hand and his left hand holding the seat back behind Anitha's head, Sahrul stared intensely at Anitha. Anitha who had a fight with Sahrul became wrong. Since Sahrul expressed feelings, Anitha's heart so easily pounded.
"Darling, don't duck. Uda can't see your face" teased Sahrul who just a few hours ago became her lover. Anitha's cheeks looked increasingly red. Sahrul enjoyed the view.
Because Anitha was still bowing, making Sahrul even more anxious. Not only anxious, the soul of his man also rose near the person he loved. But love and lust are only different. Sahrul pulls the hand on the car's steering wheel, moving it to Anitha's chin. He lifted Anitha's chin.
The surprised Anitha slightly opened her lips and just followed the pull of Sahrul's hand on her chin. Sahrul was still looking deep, at Anitha's eyeballs. Anita's small open lips plus Anitha's crimson face turned her desire. Sahrul slowly brought his face closer and continued to move closer to Anitha's face. When he wanted to kiss Anitha's lips, Anitha immediately lowered her head and finally Sahrul could only kiss the top of his head. Sahrul just smiled at the behavior of his lover.
Sahrul doesn't want to force his innocent lover. "We're going home, baby?"
"Yes, go home." Anitha's trembling voice made Sahrul smile not want to leave her lips.
"But uda still misses you," she teases Anitha.
"I am also Uda," Anitha replied innocently and straightforwardly. Sahrul wants to laugh.
Arrive at home ....
"Until tomorrow" Sahrul said.
"Till tomorrow Uda." Anitha stepped inside the house after Sahrul was lost from circulation.
His mother opened the door, "How long will it take you to come home, son? I want to dusk."
"Sorry Mom, go with Da Sahrul earlier," I'm honest Anitha.
"Ohh, what's your relationship with him, son?" ask mother.
"So she just revealed her heart, Mom," I Anitha remained honest with her mother.
"You accept?"
"Yes, Mom."
"Your father doesn't like it when you're dating. I'm asking to take care of myself, don't mess around and finish your lecture well, son. It's a real capital for you that we can leave behind if we're not around.
"Iya Bu Anitha understands. Anitha promises to keep numbering the college and will not be all kinds of ma'am. Believe it."
"Mom trusts you. Shower there, already want magrib. Prayers."
In the room ... Anitha is very flowery. Sahrul's first love. Anitha threw her body in bed. Feeling unsatisfied just by falling free in bed, he rolled back like the first time Sahrul called him.
After feeling satisfied, then he took a bath and soon Azan reverberated, he prayed and continued to teach. He taught until he entered the Isha prayer. After the prayer, they had dinner and a little joke, if Anitha had no college assignment.
Such is the routine of the As Monsir family. At ten o'clock at the latest they're asleep. They will wake up at 3 for tahajud and go back to sleep until dawn calls.
If Anitha had slept at 9 or 10. Not with Sahrul, he often combines his love with Ajeng who still does not know if Sahrul is double.
Anitha was not allowed to go out the night by her father. Whatever reason. Anitha is also not allowed to participate in any activities at night unless with her mother or father.
This becomes an opportunity for Sahrul to share time with his lover. Although he already knew that Ajeng and Anitha were friendly, Sahrul still mastered Ajeng for different purposes. Ajeng who is either helpless or just blind love is only willing to be used by Sahrul for the devil's lust.
That beautiful piece of memories brought Anitha to finally fall asleep and start sailing in a dream. Without him knowing if his best friend suffers from inner birth. But who is to blame here, the helpless Ajeng? Anitha who knows nothing? or is it Sahrul who controls them both?
