Dusk Substitute
A cupful of both

Nissa didn't come back down, after cleaning herself up. Nissa chose to stay in the room. Completing unfinished work. After the magrib prayer, Nissa chose to teach while waiting for the isya prayer time. Nissa dissolved in her prostration and prayers. A moment away from the noise of the world. Avoid the reality that exists. Distracting yourself from the jealousy of the endless. Nissa felt helpless when she realized Alvira was under one roof with her.

Radit chose to work in his study. There's a big project he's working on with Rayhan. Radit's workspace is on the second floor. At least Radit didn't go far from Nissa. Radit wasn't with Alvira either. Slowly Radit begins to understand the meaning of Nissa's silence. The words spoken, sometimes not in accordance with the voice of his heart. A woman's attitude is hard to understand by men as cold as Radit. But for the peace and happiness of his small family. Radit learns to understand Nissa's attitude. Don't want to see Nissa wrong with everything she sees.

"Lake in!" radit shouted, Alvira went into Radit's study. Rayhan immediately looked up, seeing Alvira in his study. Rayhan's head, a gesture of disbelief at Alvira's aggressiveness.

"Sorry to interrupt, dinner is ready. We're all waiting for you!" alvira said, Radit blinked his eyes. Rayhan turned off his laptop. Dinner is the best time to be together.

"We're going down, go now!" radit said, Alvira nodded. Alvira stepped out with a troubled heart. Radit's cold attitude, manifestly rejecting his presence. Alvira felt a very cold chill. The man who loved her once, even adored her. Now ignore himself without caring anymore for his heartache.

"Rayhan, go have dinner with them. I'm going to go to the room. Since coming home, Nissa has been quiet in her room!"

"You're worried!" sahut Rayhan with a seductive tone. Radit went silent, then stood up without answering Rayhan's question.

"Radit, why silence? You're ashamed to admit it!" said Rayhan, while patting Radit's shoulder slowly. Alvira overhears Radit and Rayhan's conversation. The heat that Alvira heard. Increasingly add to the pain.

"I'm not worried about him, I'm worried about myself!" sahut Radit, then walked towards his room. Rayhan smiled, then chose to go down to the dining table. Rayhan sees Alvira at the last step of the stairs. Rayhan's head, as if in disbelief of Radit's complicated love affair.

"Rayhan, where's Radit?" sanjaya said, Rayhan just smiled.

"Where else? Must've met that debt-relieving woman!" sahut Saskia cynical, Sanjaya immediately stared intently at Saskia. Saskia's words would be fatal if heard by Radit. Zain didn't come to dinner. After a long day of play, Zain fell asleep in Nissa's lap. Kala Zain listened to Nissa teach.

"Your mouth harimaumu Saskia. The more you hate Nissa. The more you get away from Radit and maybe I'll stay away from you too!" rayhan said casually, Saskia snorted in annoyance. Hearing Saskia's words defending Nissa.

"Why is everyone defending Nissa?" grumbling Saskia, Alvira immediately patted slowly the back of Saskia's hand. Alvira tries to calm Saskia down. I wish it was over and I could have dinner quietly.

"But brother!"

"Saskia, for sister's sake calm down. Your brother Radit came down immediately, it would not be good if he heard this commotion!" sahut Alvira on Saskia. Rayhan nodded slowly, then took some food without caring about Saskia's anger.

Saskia grew increasingly upset, seeing Rayhan's uncaring attitude towards her. Saskia kept the flavor on Rayhan a long time ago. Saskia's spoiled attitude, nothing more than the way Saskia caught Rayhan's attention. But his efforts were in vain, Rayhan never turned his head or pedulinakan taste. Rayhan is even more indifferent and even hates Saskia. Rayhan never liked the way Saskia treated Nissa. The reason Rayhan's hatred for him.

"Lisa!" radit shouted, descending from the stairs. As everyone turned their heads, Radit's screams echoed throughout the house.

"What's wrong with Nissa?" sahut Rayhan, Radit ran out. He's riled up looking for Nissa who's not in his room.

"Darling, where are you? Is this the meaning of your silence? My fear finally happened, you left without saying anything to me. Why is it always like this? There is always a storm, after your calm and silence. How long should I be afraid? Anxious, if at any time you leave without saying goodbye to me. In what way? I'm explaining to you, Alvira is just the past. He's just a guest in my house, 'cause you're the host. Honey, I beg you. Understand and understand my past!" radit with mixed feelings. Radit continued to step up, looking for Nissa in all parts of his house. Rayhan pursues Radit's steps, Radit's concerns are well understood by him.

"Radit, one o'clock!" said Rayhan, while patting Radit's shoulder slowly.

Radit immediately turned his head in the direction Rayhan said. Radit glued, staring at the shadow he was looking for. The shadow that almost made Radit lose his mind. With wide steps, Radit walked over to Nissa. Nissa sat in the front yard of Radit's house. Nissa sat down on the grass. Radit immediately hugged Nissa, removing the anxiety and fear that filled his mind. Rayhan is happy to see Radit who finally finds Nissa.

"Darling, you're scaring me!" whispered Radit, hugging tightly Nissa. To his astonishment, Nissa silently accepted Radit's embrace. Nissa was confused, when she saw Radit coming with an anxious look on her face. Even Radit hugged her very tightly. As if I was afraid of losing Nissa.

"What's wrong? Why am I scaring you?"

"Where am I going? It's still in the house. Besides, it's dinner time. So I thought, you won't be looking for me!" nissa said casually, Radit pulled Nissa's body.

Radit cupped Nissa's face, gently rubbing Nissa's cheeks that began to look puffed up. Radit kissed Nissa's forehead gently. Radit was really scared of losing Nissa. Such a great and sincere love. Radit didn't want to see tears or grief on Nissa's face. Radit then hugged Nissa tightly, again and again until Nissa felt tight.

"Let go, why keep hugging me?"

"Obviously he hugged you, he was afraid you were leaving without saying goodbye!" sahut Rayhan teases Radit and Nissa.

"Where did Nissa go? As far as Nissa goes, Radit will continue to follow her. Anyway there's me, won't Nissa go far!" sahut Amira while carrying two bowls of meatballs and two packs of fried rice.

"You!"

"Yes me, why? You can eat with Alvira and Radit. Why can't I eat with my best friend!" sahut Amira was cold, Rayhan was silent.

"I can't believe you are a true friend. You loved Nissa so much, even before Nissa asked for help!"

"If not who am I? Radit's still busy with his ex. Look at that, the ex is still chasing!" sindir Amira, then gave a bowl of meatballs to Nissa.

"Amira, don't talk about it!" nissa said, Amira nodded and chose to sit right next to Nissa.

"Why lookin' for me? Is there anything you need?" nissa said, Radit shook his head weakly. Then kiss Nissa on the forehead.

"Eat baby, your meat will be cold!" radit said, Nissa nodded slowly.

"Open your mouth!" said Nissa, then thrust a spoonful of meatballs towards Radit.

"Just you!" radit refused, Nisss bowed.

"All right!" radit said, then opened his mouth.

"Amira, you don't want to bribe me!" rayhan said, Amira shook her head without hesitation.

"Why?" seductive Rayhan, Amira immediately stared intently at Rayhan.

"Lazy!" sahut Amira, Rayhan smiled.

"Why am I the only one who is single?" said Rayhan loudly, while watching Nissa and Radit eat meatballs together.

"Saskia, still waiting for you!" sahut Radit, Rayhan immediately stepped on Radit's foot.

"Shut up!" sahut Rayhan is upset.

"Amira, Radit's just kidding. Don't be mad, I have nothing to do with Saskia!"

"It's none of my business!" sahut Amira is cynical and cold.
