Because Amen is the Same
46. Dreamtime

"It's not like that, sister, Viona is just looking for the right time to tell everything" Viona explained by looking at her brother's face.

"Ray should be honest with his parents" said Yesi.

"Brother to the room, Ainun was in his kayak room" He continued and left.

Viona nodded her head because she had not heard the sound of her bangs in the middle room.

"Good night, sister" said Viona and herself to her room for rest.

Viona is made restless between Ray and her mother. Ray says he is serious while his mother is either serious or playfully matchmaking him.

Viona slid her body in the middle of the bed and pulled a blanket over half of her body.

"Do I need to ask Ray, but shame will be counted again" muttered Viona alone.

Viona turned her body against the wall of her room.

"Do I ask Ahmad's opinion about the matchmaking, however he is my friend would be more comfortable confiding with him than Ray" he said while considering his words.

"Fix calls Ahmad" Viona said and got out of bed picking up her phone on the nightstand.

Seeking Ahmad's contact while sitting on the bed.

"Assalamualaikum Mad, not busy?" Viona asked Ahmad.

"Wa'alaikumussalam, no. Why?" Ask back to Ahmad.

"What's that sound?" Viona asked behind the phone as the door opened.

"Oh, the door of the house" replied Ahmad leisurely as he sat in his chair and opened his shoelaces with one hand.

"Why?" Ask Ahmad again. She knew Viona never called the night if nothing mattered.

"What's so busy?" Ask Viona again. He did not believe his friend's answer.

"New house from the restaurant" Honestly Ahmad, "If anything important later I call back, want to take a shower first. Assalamualaikum" said Ahmad then turned off the phone without waiting for his greeting.

"Wa'alaikum. tut.." Viona's sentence stopped after hearing the sound of her cell phone call sign is over.

"For you my best friend!!" Viona muttered while looking at the screen of her phone.

Viona sat down while looking at the contents of the gallery in her phone. The photos that were seen when they were three. Early Ray invites Viona and Ainun.

"Sorry Ray, I'm not moving away but I'm trying to Istiqomah. Maybe if I said this in front of you I would laugh at me because I only managed to get away from you but not with Ahmad" He said.

Viona was aware from her daydream, "Ih, why the hell am I like that" Viona said while shaking her head.

20 Minutes Viona waited for Ahmad to call but never called.

"Did he sleep? It's if it's sleep maybe tired" Viona said again and returned to lay down his body while his phone he kept not far from him.

🌺

On the other hand, Ahmad had just finished cooking and eating, after finishing it he would call Viona again.

He took out the cell phone he kept on the dinner table and Viona's phone. Three calls have no answer either.

"Is it sleeping, but I told you to wait" murmured Ahmad, "phone again, this is the last" he said.

Vaguely from inside the phone is a typical half-conscious voice, "Who?" Ask Viona without greeting first.

"Assalamualaikum" Ahmad said on the phone.

"Hmmm, wa'alaikumussalam. Who?" Viona asked again after answering her greeting.

"Call that at 8 not midnight or it's dawn now, is it?" Viona asked on the phone, which made Ahmad laugh.

"I told you earlier, wait for me to take a shower first I just called back. How the hell have you forgotten" said Ahmad on the phone.

Viona gathers her consciousness, and tries to open her eyes to see the name on her phone screen.

"You're Mad?" Viona asked a little surprised.

"Who else, or do you think the guy you met at Hypermart?" Tanya Ahmad tried to lure Viona, because Viona had never discussed about men.

"Eh no, he's Ray's friend" Viona and Ahmad said they knew Ray.

"Oh, we're skipping. Why did you call?" Ahmad asked on the phone.

Viona first sat down before answering Ahmad's question.

"Gini Mad, mama I told you I wanted to match me" Viona said.

"Continue?" Ask Ahmad curiously.

"I was shocked and persuaded in various ways but did not succeed. Sis Yesi even support the decision of mama, surely mama thought is right because it is supported by her two children, right?" ask Viona after the story.

"Not bad-bad in my opinion, as long as the guy is good religion. Why not" replied Ahmad made Viona immediately his body limp hearing that from his best friend.

"Your frequency is yes, I told you wrong Mad" Viona became upset and regretted having been with Ahmad after hearing his response.

"Hahaha, adult dong already want to be betrothed is still like a child that is" said Ahmad after he laughed.

"I'm wrong people yes" Viona said.

Ahmad felt that Viona was just silent, he took the initiative to ask again.

"Who is the unlucky guy to be betrothed to you?" Ask Ahmad again .

Hearing that Viona just kept quiet, as if she was inappropriate for others.

"Viona!" Call Ahmad after a long time of not responding.

"Hmmm" Response Viona.

"Who's the guy you want to be paired with?" Ask Ahmad again.

"You're nanya, you wonder. He is right, you wonder out of curiosity" said Viona on the phone to make Ahmad who initially wanted to talk seriously again laugh.

"Hahaha, honestly my stomach hurts this" Ahmad said in the phone call after laughing.

"Death to Mad, than to be sick" Viona said coldly.

Want a story but Ahmad always responded jokingly.

"Assalamualaikum Mad" said Viona again and he turned off the phone.

Viona immediately deactivated her mobile phone, she deliberately anticipated when Ahmad called. Pull the blanket up to his head and he sleeps.

As for Ahmad, who he thought his jokes would not make Viona angry. Now it's even scratched after the phone died. Ahmad called many times but Viona's contact was inactive.

He sent an apology message via WhatsApp but checked one.

Lama Ahmad stared at the screen of his cell phone in the hope that Viona suddenly activated and opened the message. But in fact, it was only his hope.

Ahmad lay his body on the bed and once checked the message whether it has been read or not, but the tick has not changed to color as well.

Ahmad decided to go to bed tonight in hopes of waking up the morning his message had already been read.

Both of them enter their dreams.

🌺

At Ray's residence, he was busy checking the finances of his workshop. Ray is sleepy but there are still other files that have not been checked.

"Ray's spirit" he said to encourage himself.

A few minutes of his workshop financial statements he's checked everything. Istrahat for a moment in his chair while closing his eyes for a moment.

Leaning back in his chair without feeling disturbed in the slightest made him fall asleep.

Ray dreams in his sleep that he sees a woman dressed in white like a bride, so happy that the woman from Ray's view. He approached but the more approached the woman got further away. He ran after the woman, but the woman walked gracefully and slowly but in Ray's view faster than he who ran, so that the more pursued instead of approaching and even away.

"Hay wait, you look like someone" Ray said in his dream.

The woman turned her head and showed her next to her face with a smile etched beautifully on her lips.

"You look like Viona" Ray said, shouting.

"I'm Viona, Ray" he answered and then he walked away from Ray behind him.

Ray chases again, but Viona enters the mosque.

"Wait, I'm coming" Ray said again, waving his hand to wait.

Viona climbed two steps of the mosque then turned her back to see Ray who was under the stairs while looking up to see Viona.

"Help me" asked Ray.

"Shahadat" said Viona and then disappeared just like Ray.

Ray in his dream was immediately frowning looking for the whereabouts of Viona while calling Viona.

"Vio... Vionas... Viohina"

Ray's third call awoke from his sleep.

"Why can I dream like that?" Ray wondered in his heart.

His forehead was sweating, "Shahadat, what does that mean?" Ray is confused by his own dreams.

Ray went straight to the sink to wash his face first, after which he went to the room to lay down his body, even though his mind was drifting in an indeterminate direction.

"Why did I have such a strange dream" he said as he tried to close his eyes.

Eyes closed but his mind was still trying to digest the last sentence of Viona through the dream.

Ray makes an eye and convinces himself.

"The relay is just a sleeping flower, don't think about it let alone be curious" he said.

"Sleep. sleep" Ray said to himself until he fell asleep.
