Because Amen is the Same
51. Co-operation

Ray's ring, Viona has returned to make him feel relieved. Relief and loss seemed to come and go, on the one hand he was happy to get a ring from the person he loved but on the other hand he could not accept the ring.

It is hard to make a decision when mutual love is there.

"Temptations" muttered Viona while drying her hair with a towel.

Today he plans to go to the beach alone, it is not unusual to go alone in a place that is quite far from home but to calm his heart that is in need of refreshing, then he ventured.

With the motor key in his hand, heading to the middle room to ask for permission.

"Well, where's the deck going?" Ask Yesi with a glass of milk in her hand for Ainun.

"Where are you going out for a second, mama?" Ask Viona back to her sister.

"Maybe room"

"Not in the middle room?"

"No, just go to the room" Jesi told his youngest brother.

Viona nodded and headed for her mother's room, when she got to her mother's room, she immediately raised her hand to knock on the door.

"Where if you pick you up, have dinner at home" said Heti's mother in the room.

"What?, Mama is weird" muttered Viona annoyed and left her mother's room.

"When's the plan?" Ask Heti's mother again on the phone.

"When, faster is better, right?" Say Heti's mother again on the phone.

The phone call with his friend talked about Viona's matchmaking with the man her friend was using.

"Had yes, we'll call again, assalamualaikum" Heti's mother said hello before turning off the phone.

While Viona sat quietly in the middle room while fiddling with her phone, I don't know what she was looking for in the phone.

"Sir, did you ask permission?" Ask Yesi.

"Astaghfirullah sis, make a shock" said Viona as she rubbed her chest neutralizing her feelings.

"You're too focused on your phone, why else?"

Yesi knows her sister very well, if there is a problem always silent do not want to talk to her brothers unless asked first.

"Oh, sister, why is this neat?" Viona asked looking at Yesi and Ainun.

"To the beach, this we've got a beach hat, don't you think?" Ask Yesi to her son.

"Yes aunty, bored at home" Ainun said as she smiled at her aunt.

"Izin with grandma if so, aunt did not ask permission earlier" said Viona resigned. He failed to walk on the beach alone.

"Yeee" Ainun was happy and ran straight to her grandmother's room and asked permission to go to the beach.

Once allowed, Ainun returned and informed his mother and aunt.

🌺

They reached the beach half an hour ago, Viona enjoyed the beautiful beach scenery accompanied by Yesi and Ainun who were playing sand.

"This is Ainun's house, this is aunt's house" Ainun said as he formed a rectangular sand.

"This is the door" Ainun said again.

"Auntie.bibi.. Ainun made a home for aunty, like aunty?" Ask Ainun.

"Like dong, nice house kayak cow stable" replied Viona spontaneously made Ainun cry.

"Huhuhu, Aunt Viona is not good. Time home made Ainun kayak cow pen. Ainun did not want to talk to auntie anymore" Upset Ainun, "humm" She said and then threw away her face and continued playing sand by herself.

"Why the hell deck?, not usually" asked Yesi curious about his sister.

"No, I just want a vacation. Enjoying the beach like this feels the heart is peaceful"

"Remain?, I know you're happy or sad"

Yesi is still trying to dig deeper.

"According to my brother now I'm happy or sad?" Ask Viona back.

"More to upset the heck brother see, Ainun just until annoyed earlier you said the houses that he made curious like a cow pen"

"Sir Yesi sok tau. That was kidding" Kilah Viona.

"Ohh" The short response from Yesi and the conversation broke down.

"I'm sorry, brother, I can't tell you yet. Again not in the mood" Inner Viona while exhaling violently.

Yesi chose to accompany her daughter to play sand which made Viona interested in doing so as well. Then the three of them play on the beach, just play sand once take a picture to capture the moment.

In contrast to the girl who still loves Ray is Gladis. He no longer approached Ray but Ray's own parents.

"Tante, Gladis bring souvenirs from indo". Said Gladis after being invited into the house.

"Thank you" Mami Ray told Gladis.

"Sama-sama tan" replied Gladis.

"When did you get to Indonesia?"

"Yesterday tan, is there no plan to go home indo?"

"Plan in the near future"

"Ashik dong Tan" said Gladis again.

"You haven't seen Viona in Indonesia?"

"Lazy talk about Viona here, but for Ra's sake I do" Inner Gladis.

"no Tan looks like Viona is busy, maybe looking for work" replied Gladis who was responded quickly by Papi Ray.

"That's good, but why Alex never told us that Viona was looking for a job. Papi can call Papi's office friends, just work there Viona" explained Papi Ray and Mami Ray nodded in agreement while Gladis if not with Ray's parents had long shouted.

"Again pi, call Viona" Mami Ray said she couldn't wait to give Viona the news.

"Why everywhere Viona continues, nothing else what?, Upset hearing it" Inner Gladis.

"Later at night" said Papi Ray. "Son Gladis often goes to Korea. Is there some business?" Ask Papi Ray to the point.

Gladis was confused to answer the question, he did not prepare the answer and it was unexpected Gladis.

"Plan om like that" jawan Gladis gloatingly.

"In Indonesia or here?"

"Australia"

"Why not here?"

"Come closer to family"

"Hopefully succeed" said papi Ray.

"Thank you, um"

"Sama-sama, it looks like I came out first" Pamit Papi Raya told Gladis and his wife.

Papi Ray went to stay Mami Ray and Gladis. Gladis gets closer to Mami Ray so that Mami Ray shares a little Ray story as a child. However, Gladis doesn't need that, he just wants how Mami Ray supports her to return to her son instead of the same Viona.

"Tan, you may ask but don't be angry or offended" Gladis said carefully.

Mami Ray just smiled and nodded understandingly, "just ask, what do you want to ask?"

"Is Viona the same as us Tan?" Gladis asked made Mami Ray think for a moment.

"Mommy feels like that, I've met before coming back here"

"It's not what Tan is, it's afraid that Viona and Ra are not the same faith" said Gladis a little concerned, "Hopefully yes Tan" he continued.

"Yes, Mami has never asked either Viona or Alex. Did alex ever tell you?" Ask Mami Ray.

Gladis shook his head slowly, "sorry Tan, but my cousin said Ra had met a woman wearing a hijab"

Mami Ray immediately turned towards the perfect Gladis, "does she mean Viona?"

"Don't know what Tan is, but I got this photo" Gladis said, showing a picture of a woman wearing a veil.

"Like Viona, but is that true Viona?" Mami Ray asked still hesitant but when viewed from her face similar to Viona.

"It's not clear what Tan is, because my cousin has never met Viona" Gladis explained.

"Mommy can ask for your help?"

"What is Tan?" Gladis asked inwardly pleased amazingly.

"Find out about Viona, make sure she's the same as us or not"

"Ready Tan, I'll help auntie as much as I can. Aunty's just waiting for news from me, how's Tan?" Ask Gladis.

"Okay, thank you" Mami Ray said with a smile and Gladis returned the smile.

"This way I'm easily with Ra every day" he said with a winning smile for the results of his performance this few weeks.

"Where if I go home first Tan, want to be ready to go back indo afraid we miss information" said Gladis.

"Oh that, be careful on the road. Tell Mommy whatever information you get"

"Ready, by Tan" Pamit Gladis and cipika cipiki with Mami Ray.

"Camer" Inner Gladis.
