"I'm good Brother, how are you?" Ask me back.
Yeah, well, at least I should have asked her the news after her sudden departure. Leaving myself.
"Alhamdulillah, I'm good. Oh, did I come here to teach tutoring to Yasmin, she said she needed help to teach tutoring?" wildan asked me so convincingly.
Teaching tutoring? Yasmin or Al said nothing to me. With a little bad heart I allowed Wildan's brother to sit on the bench. Now at home there is no one but me and Mbok Sum, fearing it would be slanderous to tell him to sit in the living room.
"Sit down, sister, I'll make you a drink." I'm authorized to make him a drink inside.
Actually I told Mbok Sum who made it, while I went back to meet Kak Wildan, the person who once filled my heart when Junior High School and High School first. No, he was never a lover or closer than that. It's just that I used to love him and up until now maybe Wildan's brother never knew my true feelings.
"Sister Wildan is now a teacher?" ask me when I come back from the inside.
The line of the face is firm, but looks soothing is indeed a characteristic of Kak Wildan that can not be forgotten. Whats? What wild fantasy is this? My brain was so cramped thinking about it.
"I happened to be Yasmin's homeroom teacher at school, and today I got a call from someone to teach Yasmin privately," replied Brother Wildan with an unusual look at me.
Hey don't look like it's stupid, or my mischievous heart will give you a chance. And it's a sin. My mind is back heating up.
"What do you and Yasmin have?" Brother Wildan asked with great curiosity.
All this time he knew I was an orphan with no relatives.
"I... I'm his sister Yasmin's wife," I obviously felt this tongue stiff to tell her.
There is a little disappointment, the presence of Kak Wildan is not right. Although I had expected you once, this time I had to give up because of the circumstances.
"So you're married? You finally found your prince. You are beautiful with your hijab," praised Kak Wildan by saying that with disappointment, yes I feel that.
I used to wait for Brother Wildan to propose to me, but then he just disappeared. Back beristighfar, because it makes prejudice that he was disappointed when he heard I was married.
"Yasmin is out, brother, later if Yasmin comes home I will ask her or Al... My husband," obviously I don't want him to linger in this house, so that the taste I once had doesn't reappear.
Wildan smiled and understood what I meant. Finally he tidied up his bag and stood up from his seat. Go there as soon as you can if you can't come back.
"Well, I say, Laila, may you be happy forever" said Brother Wildan, giving his hand for me to shake.
I don't want to take any chances if the heart is still there by shaking his hand. So I saluted without touching. Brother Wildan smiled, he realized I had changed for the better and gave his greetings afterwards. I hope he's not offended at all, even if he's offended. I don't want to get dizzy.
Looking at Wildan from behind, I let the past go with him. As a wife I need to be able to keep myself out of other people's sight. Don't do anything that would bring down my dignity as a wife and betray her husband's trust.
"Where's the guest?" mbok Sum asked with a glass of warm tea water.
"Have gone home, put it here. I'll have a drink later" I asked.
The weather was so sunny, but there was a sense of cloudiness in the heart. I don't know what it is, hopefully it has nothing to do with Kak Wildan's departure this time. He was just the past, his presence would not change anything.
