After Marriage
Billing Promises
Last night Anha arrived at her house at nine o'clock. Fortunately, his mother slept faster than usual. So this time Anha escapes the impromptu interrogation that her mother usually does after Anha is ushered home by Hasan.
"An, you're not papa, are you? Promise, yes, tomorrow story," said Hasan when releasing the departure of his lover. Anha nodded, though she did not cry anymore, but her face was still puffy, and it made Hasan even more worried.
Actually, Anha also did not have the heart to see Hasan's worried face. Let alone allowing him to go home with the feeling of guessing his own nebak in the heart. But.. Tonight, Anha just wanted to sleep because she felt so tired.
"I'm not papa, really. I go in first, yes," said Anha softly.
"Yes." Yeah."
Thereafter. Hasan went home feeling unsettled until morning.

But it cannot be denied at all. All night, Hasan thought. Tidurnnya not sound. His hand was about to touch his phone to send Anha a message he said for fear of disturbing Anha's sleep.
Hasan waited until dawn.
And the next day Hasan had rushed to visit his lover's house to demand answers to his curiosity that he managed to hold for a full night.
Hasan smiled at Anha's mother. Shake hands. Anha came out of her room wearing a panda-patterned nightgown with original hair. Hasan smiled, even though Anha woke up, with no makeup at all, it still looks beautiful naturally. But those eyes can't lie because all night crying looks a bit swollen.
"Hi" said Hasan stiffly. Mama Anha to frown and feel strange about why they are even now like two lovebirds who are just approaching.
Ah, nevermind. Mama sniffed her shoulders indifferently. Mama doesn't want to interfere in both of their affairs. Seeing Anha who seemed to have cried last night from the look on her face. Mama just thought maybe Anha had a fight with Hasan.
"Hi," said Anha like a person who was not excited at all.
Anha invites Hasan to sit in a chair in front of the terrace of the house. That way my mom won't hear about it clearly
"How are you?" hasan asked, he can't go straight to the point asking about last night. Slowly ask Anha.
"But you were a little pendiem this morning. It doesn't hurt, does it?" Hasan moved to touch Anha's forehead using her palm to check her body temperature whether it was hot or not. But it turned out to be normal. Mercifully.
“Sorry. Maybe I'm not in the mood anymore. But I'm seriously fine, kok.”
Hasan nodded, silent for a moment between the two of them. Not willing to dare not dare. Hasan had to pay his promise last night.
“How about semalem. Does your mom know about last night?” asked Hasan while enjoying the tea banquet that was given by Mama Anha. It was a little hearty when he asked Anha. And Hasan also somewhat lowered his tone so that Mama Anha who was busy in the kitchen preparing the banquet could not hear him.
Anha shook her head.
“Mama doesn't know, anyway. Luckily my mom is sleeping.”
Anha looked straight ahead. Many children in this complex are playing in front of the house considering that today is a holiday. His mood slowly began to improve.
In addition to the atmosphere because in front of the house Anha there is a mango tree that is quite shady blocking some sunlight entering.
“An..”
“Ya?” anha answered the whole thing while still looking ahead and sipping her tea slowly.
“Semalem why?”
Anha swallowed her saliva. It turns out that Anha's guess is correct, Hasan came here for charging an answer to last night's incident.
Then what should he answer? There is no way Anha said if last night she met Ikram and said that Ikram to be insolent to him. Could Hasan be angry and meet Ikram.
But…
Tbc...
