...You're just the past, don't expect to be the future. Because of the failures I've felt, I'm going to teach you a lesson....
His encounter with Azam made the taste that was in Ais' heart, start to churn back. It was hard for her to try to forget her ex-husband but why she had to face him every day again.
Ais tried to recoup the incision that scratched his heart by following the joint activities with Hanafi at the mosque. That way, Ais could forget the pain that was scratching her heart.
Tonight Ais attended a monthly regular lecture held at the mosque where Hanafi taught. Likewise with Adam who will never be left behind with Hanafi activities, because the relationship between the two is very close.
The ice that had not attended the study for a long time, was amazed by the people who were present. Although they are busy, but they still recount free time to follow the routine study.
Ais also heard a little story from her brother, although Hanafi was young but she already had a lot of fans, especially in young mothers who greatly admired Hanafi's dignity and good looks. However, it does not necessarily make Hanafi a takabur person. He kept his eyes well.
Because the event began after the prayer isya then all those present also perform the prayer Isya' first. The ice that had just opened its face, felt extremely shocked when it saw the figure he recognized. Although only once did Ais see, but he was already able to mark her face.
"Iza," he murmured.
Iza who was also present at the event never thought if she would meet Ais, the ex-wife of her husband.
The distance between the two is only one person, so Ais and Iza can both recognize each other.
It was undeniable that Iza's chest continued to murmur very loudly, when she could stare at Ais without any gaps. Suddenly, there was guilt for Ais, as her presence had ruined her marriage to Azam.
"Ais," said Iza slowly.
The ice that had been trying to ignore Iza, suddenly had to turn its head because Iza called out to her. Want to pretend not to know, but in fact Iza instead called him. With forced Ais also directly turned to look at Iza.
"Iza .. You're Azizah, right? Her husband was Azam? How come it's here?" ask Ais with a pretend.
Ah, yes. I am Azam's wife. A few days ago Mas Azam was transferred to teach at one of the universities in the city. And we finally moved here. You live here too?" ask Iza with strong prejudice, if Azam's move has anything to do with Ais.
"Oh yes. How do I not know?" Ais tried to keep pretending not to know anything. "Do you live near here?" ask Ais again.
Chief Iza nodded slowly. "Yes. I live in the Rose House. You live near here yourself? Same who?"
"Wah .. turns out we're a complex one, yes. But I don't know. What number do you live in?"
Ais and Iza also had a light conversation. The two asked each other a question, albeit with an irregular heartbeat.
Iza tries to stay ordinary, while Ais tries to keep pretending as if she knows nothing.
As Hanafi stood in his pulpit, many mobile phones were about to take photos and videos of the man. Ais who saw feeling very surprised, it turned out that Hanafi opened just anyone. And almost all of them are his fans.
"God willing, he is already famous. Hopefully, the knowledge you have can be useful for everyone," muttered Iza who also felt surprised by the phones that want to take pictures.
At a glance Ais who was sitting not far away could still hear what Iza said.
"Wait on! Don't tell me that Iza knows Mas Hanaf, "the inner Ais with eyes focused on Iza.
...****...
Almost an hour ago Hanafi lectured on the pulpit and now the event must be over. Sunday night is usually only used to spend time out there, but not with the residents of the complex who deliberately held a heart flush, even though only once in a month.
"Iza, wait!" Ais called out to Iza, as the woman was about to stand up to leave her seat.
"Well, what's up?" asked Iza with both eyebrows raised.
Ice lips felt very confused to ask whether Iza is currently pregnant or not, considering if the marriage has run a month or more. However, it feels like Ais is not on stage to question Iza's pregnancy.
"Ais, what's wrong?" repeat Iza when she sees Ais speechless.
"Ah, nothing. I just wanted to say next time we go together. I have a gift for you, because I could not attend your wedding with Azam mas at that time," said Ais with a tightness in his chest.
"Ais, don't bother. Me and Mas Azam just .... " Iza had not been able to continue his explanation suddenly someone had Ais.
"Ais, you are sought after by Adam" said a woman who had known Ais and Adam.
"Oh yes, Ma'am," retorted Ice.
"Iza, I'm first. Assalamualaikum."
"Waalaikumsallam," replied Iza slowly. Even Iza's eyes were still paying attention to Ais's steps as she left the mosque.
"Ais .. forgive me. If only I hadn't come back to Indonesia maybe I wouldn't be the third among you with Azam mas. Forgive me for not taking Azam's mas from you. All this I had to do for my parents. Ais, I'm sorry."
