On that drizzle day you met me
When the rain poured down on my heart,
And the storm still rumbles in my tracks.
I don't know what magic you have, though,
For I was unknowingly captivated,
And my soul will be calm.
Amazing, man,
Bak had never suffered before,
It comes back to life after so long.
You make me feel that way.
...
At eight o'clock, Agnia had already left her home with Akmal. The man came early in the morning to meet Agnia's parents first. Yeah, that's how their relationship is intertwined. It's only a matter of time, and there won't be any more distance between them.
Akmal is not sincere if Gian comes back. The fear that Akbar said the other day materialized.
"Don't take Agni to be the same lo, but marry someone else."
—Acbar 2022
There were no significant complaints on Agnia's face, Akmal was sure of it and had glanced at the girl next to him at a glance. Agnia had already completely accepted it, that was what she saw.
"Why?" Agnia looked at the rest of the senyu on Akmal's face, now frowning. It was not clear Akmal since earlier, smiled too much and threw a fist at him.
"No papa."
"But! Focal drive! Don't be weird." said Agnia in a relaxed tone, not cynical as usual. It made Akmal smile again.
...
"Sir, I picked up the phone first" said Akmal who just got out of his car with a cell phone in his hand. Said to Agnia who was waiting.
"Oh, am I staying?"
Akmal nodded, remaining with his smile. "Yes. later I followed." Akmal replied which was immediately embraced by Agnia.
The event is still not started, the preparation still looks bothered in every place. Agnia who confidently entered with a special invitation from the owner of the boutique, immediately asked where to meet Indri on one of the staff. After a while of talking, Agnia seemed to point towards Akmal somehow saying what. Only after speaking more, he was escorted to Indri.
The girl with the shoulder-length hair was busy talking, standing on her back at the entrance. Still complaining about someone who seems to be a make up artist. Pointing to his model, complaining about anything that did not match his expectations.
"Sister.sorry."
"What?" tanya Indri, sounds bad. He hates being bullied at times like this, doesn't anyone understand? "What else?"
"It's.."
"This what?" Indri asked flatly, but kept looking. His eyes instantly turned sparkling as he looked at Agnia, ignoring the staff he was about to temper. "Damnit.."
Agnia welcomed Indri's embrace, smiling happily. Then look at Indri's face after taking off his embrace. "How are you?"
"Good." Indri brief, his face turned soft.
"Congratulations." said Agnia, while thrusting a bouquet of flowers in her hand that Indri immediately received.
"Thank you.. Seneng you came, my cape immediately disappeared. Finally.." said Indri, it does look as enthusiastic as that. "Stand, yeah.." Indri paused, turned to make up artistnya. "Sir, that's what we discussed. Okay? I'll go first."
Indri was honest with her tiredness that disappeared after Agnia came, her face was bright while holding Agnia. And it was honestly surprising for the model also make up artist who had been scolded for five minutes before Agnia came.
...
Agnia was taken to the most special room in the boutique, a pair of tables and chairs were located there. Also the shelves are still empty, one sofa extends on the other side. Convenient, it's just that it's still not set up properly, the files are somehow piled up on the table.
"Don't be surprised! We have not been able to improve." said Indri, because Agnia who circulated her views.
Agnia smiled, nodding at a glance. That's not what his gaze means, he doesn't care about messy or messy. "I don't need to explain."
"Jude, here.." Indri did not allow it, instead sat down first and now patted the chair next to him so that Agnia sat there.
"What's wrong?" ask Agnia while sitting her ass on the sofa.
Indri frowned at Agnia's question, a fierce look on her staff thinly appeared. "Kok what's up? We haven't seen him in a long time, you know. Cooking can't be.."
"Breathe.."
"What?"
"You keep pushing, you'll get old! Not married yet."
"ah! Yes also.." muttered Indri, unexpectedly agreed when Agnia's speech seemed sad to be spoken between the two of them. For a moment the white girl who was so tall seemed to think, to then smile showed a row of teeth. "Sorry, the same habits of my staff."
"Yes, relax, Boss."
"Forget it. There's something more important, and you're the first one to come. I want this one."
"Ask!"
"Where are you?" asked Indri with water face serious also enthusiastic, because previously when asked Agnia said she would come with someone. Of course he was curious about who that man was? Adi's surrogate man who can strangely conquer Agnia's heart. For as long as he knew, although rarely exchanged news he knew Agnia was quite hit with the failure of her marriage.
The one asked did not reply, instead stared back fixedly. Make Indri a second then sigh, sebal. "Look at me!" his protest, while holding back his cynical face that is already characteristic since birth.
"Is that important? I came here to show my support, not to show someone.."
"Yeah!"
"Anyone who should know someone is you, not me. You guys are dating for two years, right? But never known. Impas dong?"
"You don't understand, Agnia. The situation is different between me and you." complained Indri, anxious.
"Because?"
Indri sighed, he was not the melow type. To not be able to say if who Agnia would introduce was very meaningful to him. "Forget it!"
Agnia smiled looking at Indri's annoyed face, this girl next to her had not changed at all. Years passed even after he had succeeded and succeeded with his ideals he had not changed at all.
"There" said Agnia, making Indri again round her eyes. "I'm taking someone."
"Yeah? Where!"
Agnia chuckled, not knowing that she was attracted to Akmal. "Why, that's if I move on from my ex?"
"Yes! No need to ask."
"What?!" The matchmaking? Indri was stunned, because in his mind matchmaking was the last way when someone could not find his own heart patch. For him it was a little sad, but Agnia was nothing less until she had to be betrothed. "And you agree?"
Agnia nodded. "You know, I don't have a choice."
Indri's eyebrows are perfectly linked, it sounds like Agnia doesn't like the matchmaking. But what he noticed from Agnia's face was just the opposite, the girl seemed ordinary even better than the last time they met.
The matchmaking? Did ya?
...
Akmal just disconnected his call, it was the mother who asked him where he went with the car. He who is not allowed to go was given a little warning, which when he did not have the permission, because the mother was missing since morning and somewhere.
Akmal smiled slightly, as soon as the call was over. Retno who was about to get angry so suddenly softened when she knew she was going to take Agnia, it was always like that.
Not far from there, Alisya also Adi just arrived. Alisya who saw one of her friends immediately waved, while Adi who just got out of his car was diverted to the figure of Akmal.
"Mas, come on. It's my friend.."
"You go first, I'll follow you."
"Cock?!" Alisya frowned, showing a disappointed face.
"I want to buy a drink first, for a while. embarrassed if you ask the same who has an event even though the event has not started" said Adi.
Alisya nodded, then smiled. "Judek.."
Adi lied, which he aimed at was not a store or stall. But Akmal, the man who seemed to be smiling after picking up the phone.
Exactly, when Adi arrived behind Akmal, Akmal turned around. The look they meet. The smile on Akmal's face disappeared instantly, changing in shock. He can't pretend he doesn't recognize the man in front of him. Yet..
Akmal smiled, nodding politely. He had no time to mince words with the man who caused the pain that Agnia felt.
"Awhile.."
Waitaminute! It was aimed at him? Akmal's steps stopped, again facing his body to Adi. If not by chance, what was the purpose of the man greeting her?
"I?"
Adi smiled thinly. "I'm not sure you remember, but we've met before."
"Emh, yes, it seems so. It's good to see you here." Akmal said, diplomatically.
Adi nodded his head, momentarily silent. "You came with Agnia?" the question then, sounded disturbing in Akmal's ears.
"Yes.. I'm taking my future wife, but how do you know her?"
Wife-to-be? Adi smiled bitterly, in fact he had mentioned Agnia like that in the past.
"I am the husband of his friend." replied Adi later, sounding stiff.
"Oh..so? I thought his friend.." said Akmal, with a hard-to-understand look. Bak protested not to mention Agnia if she was not one of his friends.
...
Half an hour to nine o'clock, the preparation of the boutique was completed. Only the executor of the event that began to move, is now briefing the models.
Indri who knows, for now choose to trust his staff for the sake of chatting with his high school friends. Skeptically he brushed for a moment.
The ten people have occupied the most comfortable seats each, with Indri who does not want to be far from Agnia. Eight other people consist of three people who come with their partners while the other two come together, including those who are still not married to join Agnia and Indri.
"The singles are so different, the sitting rapet really." said one who had carried his son, teasing.
Indri throbbed, looking at his male friend. Where accepted he was said to be so, though not the only one. "By the way again, look out lo. I make Lo's wife go home alone just know the taste."
Such is the way Indri during school, being the most threatening but the most sociable at the same time. Even he and his male friends are also their wives even so familiar. Unlike Agnia who has always been so, not slang but not rarely get along. More impressed moderate.
At that time the same staff delivered Alisya, as well as one other person. The arrival that made the gazes all alternated from Alisya to Agnia, spontaneously so. The story is no longer a secret, they are living witnesses of the relationship between Agnia and Adi during school as well as witnesses how Adi actually married Alisya.
Not expecting it, for the first time Alisya was invited and came to a gathering like this. He also brought his son.
"Raina.." said Agnia, unable to ignore one of her students. Raina had not been silent since seeing Agnia, making Alisya only able to let her son approach the teacher who had not taught for a few days.
Amidst his bases, Indri was distracted by the sight. He was a little upset, did not understand the way Agnia's mind now seemed comfortable even brought Raina into his lap. He hesitated, lest Agnia be unaware if it was the son of Alisya and Adi.
"How are you, Alisya.."
"Alhamdulillah.you?"
"Good.."
"Ehh.." Indri nodded, he was as upset as he really was. Didn't expect that Alisya would come with her son when she found out Agnia was invited.
"Your son is the biggest, not expecting." said one of them, to Alisya. "It was not always so dear that you will first marry and continue to have children."
"I used to think it would be Agnia first, you know." other timpal, deliberately said so want to know the reaction of Alisya.
Everyone turned in the same direction, warning. Even if it is with what Alisya has done, it does not deserve to be thrown because Agnia is also among them.
"The name is also destiny, no one knows.." another timpal laughs discordantly, which actually adds awkwardness.
Agnia chose to pretend not to hear, instead busy responding to Raina who was boasting about the toy she was carrying.
Alisya smiled brightly, understanding what her friend was trying to do. Now he was cornered, but Alisya did not come to grieve. He was ready with the risk when he decided to leave, he even realized if he was likely treated this way because since school until now Agnia has always been a good character for her friends.
Indri cleared his throat, breaking the awkward situation. "So far, where's your husband? She coming?" ask him pleasantries.
"Cute, coke. Still ahead but."
"It also turns out, I don't think it comes because of shame." quipped the only male friend who came there, saying along with the oddity that was immediately attacked by a warning gaze by his wife.
Uh! It turns out that it is still not finished, why does everything seem to be trying to target it? inner Alisya.
"Will not be ashamed, if the shame of cooking is for others to be ashamed." the others, still did not end their attacks. What is meant is that it is impossible to make others ashamed is about Agnia who was made a lifetime of shame because of the failure of the marriage.
Agnia complained inwardly, not liking this situation. He was so confused to behave, just reacting wrongly he would seem outrageous. It's not about people's views, but according to what they feel. He did not want to be bad or punish Alisya more than what he had to get. Seklai Berakhri, then it's all over.
"Sorry, yes Alisya. bekanda really." errat one of the most neutral there. "You know them, the sense of humor is a bit extreme."
Alisya nodded slowly, smiling back Why should I apologize? He deserves to be treated that way, he knows that.
The same staff came back and this time drove Adi who immediately made everything there silent, and stared at him. Not about Adi, but the man who came after him. For the sake of seeing the two people, Indri immediately stood up.
Adi nodded her head, smiling at everyone there without exception Agnia who was chatting with Raina. The girl only turned her head at a glance, to then turn to look at Akmal.
"Please sit down, sister." said Indri. Followed by him walking towards Akmal, immediately pulled the man without warning and pointed him at Agnia's side chair.
Indri smiled, that goal did not go far from Agnia. Now perfect.
"Enjoy the show! The Both of U. And I guys too.." Indri passed after saying that, did not feel he had to explain anything that of course his friends could understand.
