“Kak, I've arrived. Brother where?” tanya Dita via Dika's mobile phone.
“I've been waiting in front of the car in front of the exit.” Dita immediately invited Dika to meet her brother.
Iskandar looked at the blood sister who had just come out with a man. Iskandar's gaze suddenly changed as he looked at the man walking beside Dita. He even ignored Dita's screams and chose to focus on the man.
Dika did the same. The two faced each other as if they were looking at each other's faces.
“Kak, this is Dika. He helped me escape.”
“Mas, this is my brother! His name is Iskandar.”
“Friends till jannah!” said the two together then they immediately embraced like two lovers to make Dita confused. Their eyes began to get wet with a sense of haru and happy because it had been a long time since Iskandar hoped to see Dika again.
“I searched you to the address you left but they said you've been to Jakarta.” Said Iskandar without releasing his embrace to make many eyes fixed on them.
“If you don't want to be said banana lovers better let go of your embrace before your video is viral.” Woe to Dita who began to be uncomfortable with people's gazes. The two wiped the corners of their wet eyes then chuckled together.
“So this is your sister?”
“Ya can be said so. I'll tell you later. So that helper was you? Great also you can take the famous doctor's child escape.”
“I happen to be on leave too so yes I helped you. I was also confused as to why I would help him but this is the silver lining. Allah SWT has arranged this meeting for us. How are the other friends? You guys have all been successful now huh?”
“Come, later we continue the story as well I want to take you to meet them.” They left the airport.
On the way, Iskandar contacts Ari, he codes Dita and Dika not to speak.
“Assalamualaiku, Ri.”
“Walaikumsalam, Is. What's up?”
“Where are you?”
“I'm in mess, you?”
“Again on the road to pick up Dita. Oh yeah, which friends?”
“There's more, all collecting. I don't know what happened, today on compact get together in mess.”
“Ouh great. I'll be there soon after dropping off Dita.”
“Oke.”
After ending his call, Iskandar looked at Dika with a smile. “You look different, Sister. Much more handsome.” Puji Iskandar's.
“You too! looks authoritative. Where do you work?”
“I teach at one campus to another as well. So you work at a hotel?”
“Em, when I went to Jakarta to work odd jobs and met a friend and he invited me to Bali. He said, in Bali we can find a job that does not demand a high diploma. Yeah, I did, though, I went there and worked as a cleaner at the hotel and then armed from there I took a package exam to be able to raise the position at the hotel to a somewhat bagusan employee at work. Then, how's Dita's sister? To my knowledge, your brother. Has he changed functions?”
“Yeee. Am I the forest? We are brothers only different status. Brother son halal and I bastard son.”
Uhukk…
Choking on his drink, he looked at Iskandar who was focusing on driving. “Let me tell you guys I introduce him to you. But before that, Ta, you don't have that head covering? My friends men all.” Tanya Iskandar glanced at Dita who only wore T-shirts and jeans.
“I ran away with nothing, brother. Only a million dollars are given to Mama. That's because I said in front of Mas Dika that I don't have money. Let Mama not be ashamed so she gives money with mobile phone.”
“Try opening my backpack! There is bali cloth, wear it if you want. Still new too.” Dita opened Dika's backpack and found what she was looking for.
“Mas, these are souvenirs huh? I don't want to trouble you anymore. We stop at the store just to buy mukena so perfect if this cloth cover is not perfect.”
“There mukena Bali as well, just take it for you one.”
“Let's wife Mas Dika be angry if I take her face.”
“You're married, Dik?” asked Iskandar surprised.
“Not yet, I couldn't possibly invite your sister if I was married.”
“Dates is there, right? Living in Bali but not having a boyfriend is impossible, Mas. Right, Brother?”
Iskandar looked back at Dika at a glance, “Cewe bali it likes outdoor products not local products, Mbak.”
“Eh, do not call Mbak dong Mas. I'm younger than you. Call Dita only even though I am 29 years old and I do not have a lover who wants to invite me to marry.” Complain Dita who sits in the back seat.
“Kok you so vent?” iskandar Protest.
“Ya already, so my wife just want to not?”
“DON't!!” the cry of Iskandar made Dika frown in wonder. While Dita immediately knew the reason the brother forbade his friend.
“I'm christian, Mas. We cannot marry because of different beliefs.”
Silent…
Ahem,,, uh,,,
Dika berdehem broke the silence that had occurred. “Why be this serious? I also have no intention of getting married.”
“Yes, I live in one house with our best friend. Ta, put on your face!”
“Mas, permission yes!” said Dita then took the maroon color mukena in Dika bag.
“This subordinate is wearing too?” tanya Dita was confused.
“No need.” Answer Iskandar.
“So my appearance is upon her lower angel demon huh?” the sarcasm of Dita on itself.
“If you are uncomfortable, just wear the subordinates!” dika Suaran.
“Later I was thought to want to pray.” Reply Dita while Iskandar just shook his head slowly until the car stopped at a house.
They were down last, “Assalamulaikum.” The third speech is compact. So compact, Iskandar and Dika were surprised to hear Dita also gave greetings.
“Why? Can't I say hello too?” ask Dita's upset.
“By but don't be angry if they don't answer your greetings.”
Iskandar entered immediately followed by Dika. “Is, who are you?” Ari and three friends till jannah who was lying in the living room immediately woke up to see two strangers in front of them.
“You don't know him? Take a good look!” pinta Iskandar to his friends. She smiled sweetly at her friends. It felt that at that moment he also wanted to hug them tightly one by one.
“You can guess them?” ask Iskandar to Dika.
“Ari, Reski and Dwi. Am I right?” Iskandar nodded small.
“Is, dia?” asked Ari then walked slowly and immediately hugged the man.
“I pray even in front of Ka’bah so that we meet again. I'm glad we could meet again. We miss you so much.” Said Ari sobbing followed by Reski and Dwi. They hugged each other and Iskandar hugged them. The five till jannah companions had finally met in complete formation.
Dita smiled when she saw the five young men hugging. “Kak, I hug also can?”
“NO!!” Iskandar immediately spoke out loudly making the four young men who had been dissolved in the feeling of haru suddenly broke a hug staring at a girl who wore maroon face.
“Who is he?” ask Ari.
Although they had met Dita but this time was different. Dita's appearance with mukena makes them unconscious if the girl is Dita.
“Channel, I'm his wife Mas Dika.”
Uhukk….
Iskandar's eyes glared at Dita sticking out her hands to shake hands with them but the friend of till jannah just looked at Dita's hand and looked at Dika as if asking for an explanation.
Dikan lowered Dita's hand, “My wife will not shake hands with any other man except the ones that are halal for her.” Whisper Dika makes Dita bristling. While Iskandar who saw the behavior of both of them make him have to wheeze. However Dita is his sister, he does not want to see the strange of the two.
“She Dita is not Dika's wife.”
“Your partner, Is?” Ari asked in surprise.
“Yes Allah, thank God for opening this girl's heart until she finds your direction. Congratulations yes! Finally you choose the same beliefs as your sister.” Said Dwi who made Ari and Reski also gave thanks while Iskandar and Dika could only shake their heads. While Dita with loud and talkative actually guarantees the ucapak Dwi.
They sat in the living room with the door open. Dita who was happy now began to feel uncomfortable when the face she was wearing began to feel sultry and make it difficult to sit comfortably. Dita who was raising her phone several times changed her sitting position because she was tired.
“Is, borrow a holster!” pinta Dika to his friend. Iskandar did not ask, he immediately took the sarong in the room and gave it to Dika.
“Replace this so you are comfortable!” Dika gave the holster to Dita made the object surprised and happy.
“Kak, I exchange it with Mas Dika. The brother became insensitive brother, even Mas Dika who is more sensitive to me. What is this brother?” gerutu Dita was about to stand in his place.
“Don't be here, go to your brother's room!” sela Dika is back. Dita immediately went with a sweet smile while the four companions till jannah compactly stared questioningly at Dika.
“So, I slept yes! You guys just continue meeting the customer.” Said Dita from behind the door. He wanted to lie down for a while in the lecturer's room.
Iskandar ordered some menus for their lunch. They told him many things until Dika finally asked about Dita to Iskandar and of course Iskandar told everything to Dika the friend.
“You like it?” search Reski made Dika smile a little.
“Already! I just want to know because Dita said she's a Christian. That's why I'm curious.” Kill Dika.
“If you like it doesn't matter, does it, Is?” ask Ari.
“Em, I'm not coming. You know for yourself how his mother and my family are related. If you want to be serious with him of course you know for yourself how the law is, right? Especially if you said you met her mother. You can value yourself but if your guts are strong please. But I'm not sure he wants to convert to our religion. Her sister just broke up with my sister for not wanting to move.” Iskandar is clearly at length.
Dika did not answer, he tried to digest and his goal at this time was not to establish a relationship with anyone but he was happy to be next to Dita. For her, Dita is an attractive girl because Dika finds it easy to get along with her. While all this time, Dika never tried to establish a relationship with any girl.
“Dik, your father is still there?” Dika nodded weakly.
“He is alive and has been suffering from a stroke for five years. The purpose of my return other than for the pilgrimage to my mother's grave, I also wanted to visit her. He is cared for by his family at this time.”
“We're coming to your house huh?” pinta they're compact. Dika smiled a little while nodding. Without them knowing, Dita who peered behind the door smiled no less sweet when she saw Dika's smile that made her very want to hug the man.
“I'm coming!”
