Asiyah End Times
He Calls Himself "Abang"

A week has passed.

This Sunday night Asiyah was in her board rented with Abi, Umi and her twin sister.

Abi lay in his room, waiting for tired eyes to rest his tired body after a day of silence.

Umi watching television. Religious films are usually shown. The family drama is packed with simple stories but provides many lessons and teachings to its audience.

While Asiyah accompanied Aisyah and Ali to do PR in the room.

"Well how was that? Have you finished working on the math?" ask Ali. He saw Ali was silent and seemed to want to lay his body on the bed.

"A little more, brother," replied Ali who seemed to be getting tired of his duties.

Suddenly, “Bluumm.. blumm..” there was a WA message coming in on Asiyah's phone in the middle of silence tonight.

“Dek.. It's Brother, Bang Bardun, Adek again what?” the contents of the WA message were read Asiyah.

Whataa?! A bardun? A brother? Meaning ‘Abang’?! Asiyah spoke in heart.

God, what is the test of the night like this? Exasperated by the heart of Asiyah to the old men who call themselves ‘Abang’ on him, the husband of another man, already two wives, already two wives, acting like a youngster just teases him in this way. Being repaid for fear of being wrong, not being reciprocated will be even more wrong, said Mr. Bardun is his business partner Pak Tomi.

“Oh Mr. Bardun, again at home, just hanging out with family, sir, again there is a little work at home,” reply Asiyah.

“What's Dek work?”

Huhhhh.. this shameless Bardun, Asiyah said inwardly.

No more WA messages. It felt like this kind of very vague chatter was just a waste of time. It will only cause a lot of slander in it.

Let it be later if asked, just lie with various reasons that come to mind, what is it. Asiyah doesn't care. There's just this man's behavior, you striped-nose guy, just know playing pepet.

True Maya's earlier guess, thought Asiyah. Mr. Bardun wanted to tease him in WA, pretending to ask for his WA number for office business. Huuhh.. again, Asiyah pushed om-om again. Although sometimes want to try to be prejudiced just fine at first, but in the end it is also clear the way.

After a night of annoying chatter for Asiyah was passed, it turned out that Mr. Bardun did not give up. Mr. Bardun was really planning something to tease Asiyah again.

The day after tomorrow is a red date, a holiday. Mr. Tomi's office is closed. Staff members.

That night, Mr. Bardun WA Asiyah again, happened to be tonight there was a concert of famous singers from out of town. Many times he said that attended, because the tickets have sold out all. Armed with this moment, Mr. Bardun seems to have bad intentions on Asiyah, if seen from his words.

“Dek, you didn't watch the concert tonight?” ask Mr. Bardun. Suddenly the message entered the phone Asiyah without greetings, without a stale base.

“No sir, I never watched a concert, I don't like.” Asiyah immediately rejected the invitation. As soon as possible reply WA from Mr. Bardun.

“Ohh the plan is for you to go there

if you want, let Brother pick you up, take Brother's car, we go alone.”

Huhh?! 'King??' Meaning to write ‘ngajak’

maybe yaa? Duhh Pak Bardun, already old style chat-chat all WA, typo will be. Going to the concert alone, one car?! Astarghfirullah's.. Asiyah muttered inwardly.

“There is no rain Deck? In the place of the rain."

“Iya Sir, but it has subsided,” Asiyah tried to cover up her anger. Just reply. Sabaarrrr Asiya, sabaarrr..

Okeeee is enough. The direction of the conversation has gone everywhere. Astaghfirullah..

it's no longer an office business. Na’udzubillahimindzalik. Asiyah threw her phone at the bed. Focus on Aisyah and Ali alone who are still working on PR.

Two days later Asiyah was working as usual in Mr. Tomi's office.

In the midst of Asiyah's busyness this afternoon, suddenly Pak Bardun approached Asiyah that afternoon. No wind, no glade, Mr. Bardun told me. Again without greeting, without further ado.

“I have not returned home for two months, my wife does not know Me, our relationship has long been not harmonious, maybe soon we will divorce,” silent for a moment.

“I'm looking for a replacement for My wife, it looks like My wife doesn't love Me anymore, My birthday only, She doesn't say anything, I need a sholeha wife who can guide me closer to religion."

It was very sad for Mr. Bardun's face on Asiyah this afternoon. I don't know, maybe this is part of his appeal again. Lancang told Asiyah about her home life which was a personal thing in her life.

It just so happened that Asiyah was sitting in the canteen in front of the office with Maya. The lunch bias. Asiyah seemed busy with her food, focusing on chewing her food. No matter around.

Without shame Mr. Bardun sat in front of Asiyah. Pouring his heart that smelled of fashion and hard code for Asiyah. Again Maya and Asiyah caught it in Mr. Bardun.

Hhhhh.. Asiyah was sultry with her behavior. Maya also looks uncomfortable, just annoying.

Asiyah and Maya just kept quiet. Just listen to all the chatter. There was absolutely no pride of his at all Mr. Bardun before them this time around.

Not reprimanding him at all until they finished eating and left the canteen. No matter what Mr. Bardun is in front of him.

Mr. Bardun looked at Asiyah who left leaving with astonishment.

How arrogant Asiyah is today, he thought. Didn't He listen to what I just said? Is Asiyah having a problem? Long I told her but no response at all. Hhhh.. Mr. Bardun looked disappointed.

Two days later.

“Blumm.. bluumm..” Asiyah's phone beeps again. There's a WA message coming in. Huufftt. from Mr. Bardun again.

“Dek... again what?”

“Sorry Sir, I'm busy again, if there is anything to say, just say it directly Mr.”

“Dek, why are I the people like to feel sorry for others, like My family who can not afford, all of them I go to Umrah, already eight people I'm traveling umroh.”

Asiyah just read the message. Not reply. What does this Mr. Bardun mean, keep on confiding in him? About things that were not important to him at all.

“If Dek Asiyah wants to be My wife, I will fly Asiyah and family go umrah, same I also leave,” continued Mr. Bardun.

Immediately shot the intent and purpose to Asiyah some time after sending the WA message to Asiyah.

Asiyah still did not reply to him. Again, just read it.

Asiyah had guessed from the beginning. Ahh finally tonight Mr. Bardun revealed everything. The offer is very high, quite okay. Worship umrah one family. Asiyah did not think. Is he interested in Asiyah? Or just a prank?
