Zahara and Salma continued to paddle their bikes slowly side by side towards the market with kale vegetables brought by Zahara and spinach vegetables brought by Salma.
"Zahara" Salma opened the conversation
Zahara just cleared a slow sign of listening
"So who came? " Tanya Salma was curious
Zahara's guess is right, Salma came sooner than the appointment hour for sure because he wanted to ask the problem earlier.
"Nobody" replied Zahara slowly
"Ahhh lied to you Zahara... That's what they want to call you, right? " His question was quick without further ado because Zahara's answer did not satisfy him.
"That's know... Kok nanyak's? " Zahara replied with a slight laugh seeing Salma's reaction.
"Ihhhh Zahara" Salma said in an annoyed tone.
Zahara did not feel guilty at all he continued to laugh loosely looking at the annoyance from Salma's face and passed away leaving her.
Salma, who was preceded by Zahara, quickly chased after him to avoid falling behind.
"Kok you closed that's the same thing I'm Zahara? .... You don't want to tell me anything, do you? " This time Salma was very disappointed.
Hearing Salma's changing tone, Zahara stared at Salma while pedaling her bicycle. Seeing Salma's serious expression with his words, Zahara finally chose to voice the matter
"I was proposed to be the manager of coffee village next to sal" he said in a resigned tone
" ha? Really? Coffee fugitive? " Salma said to reassure him of the words she had just heard.
"Yes" Zahara said as she nodded slowly.
Zahara stopped pedaling bicycles as well as Salma, because they had arrived in front of the vegetable sales place.
"Keep... You accept it, right?" Salma asked back as she parked her bike beside in the row of bikes.
"Not sal... I don't want to get married yet" Zahara said as she looked at Salma.
"Why don't you accept Sal, the coffee manager must be rich, lots of money, you must be happy life, no need to bother selling kale kayak gini lo sal" Said Salma chattering while holding the kale that Zahara was carrying in the burlap.
"Anything sal... Not ready yet" said Zahara fix kale that has been randomized Salma just now by continuing to walk quickly to the place of sale of vegetables leaving Salma very noisily
" Why not Sal...You want to be a spinster? " Salma's scream in front of the crowd managed to make Zahara stop his steps because of Salma's very loud voice, making all eyes fixed on him.
Zahara quickly turned back to Salma to stop talking
"Why are you? " Salma returned to me nyerocos with her small mouth.
Zahara who was embarrassed immediately held Salma to pull over for a while and closed her mouth to stop talking.
"I can't breathe Zahara" Salma said after removing Zahara's hand from his mouth.
"You were on them first... I'll tell you" Zahara said, looking for a way to stop Salma's mouth from speaking.
"Yes already" said Salma while laughing with satisfaction and stepping towards the vegetable sprayer.
"It's a pack of 15 kilos" Salma gives jute filled spinach to hand over to the vegetable sprayer.
" This "vegetable scout gave me 15,000 dollars.
"Not over this, sir?... Cook just this way, I work tired of this lo sir" Salma keep asking to be exaggerated
Zahara just laughed at his friend's behavior, yes that's how he was very chatty and considerate, The original Salma likes Gayo but because it has been 7 years of living in the study of some santri are Javanese, so there are times when Salma sometimes when talking using Javanese dialect.
"Well that's dong" said Salma smiling after getting 1000 rupiah in addition.
Zahara smiled looking at the smiling Salma as well.
"This is my son" The scribe gave Zahara 16,000 dollars
Zahara smiled at the photographer and returned a smile, not forgetting that Zahara thanked him
"How many are you? " Task Salma
"This" said Zahara showing the wages he had just received
"Ati ko turah berpong orom jema song I (Well that's why you should be friends with people like me) "Salma replied with a thick Gayo language.
Zahara laughed at Salma's words that were true.
Salma and Zahara headed to the market first before returning home to buy kitchen equipment by walking because the location between the place of the vegetable manager is not so far from the shopping place.
While walking Salma again brought up the matter of Zahara they had just talked about.
"Zahara come on dong... You tell me, why repeatedly reject people's applications" asked Salma back in the middle of the trip
"You know Sal... I have repeatedly told you, I am still traumatized by the same relationship called marriage, I am afraid that what happened to my mother also happened to me" Papar Zahara clearly so that Salma stops asking
Salma was immediately speechless, hearing Zahara's words, feeling the pain in her heart seeing her comrades-in-arms continue to feel like they were being imagined by the past. But when will Zahara stay like this, stay away and do not want to start a better life.
"Come here first Zahara... I'm hungry" Salma took Zahara without her consent to the chicken soup noodle.
Zahara just snorted while shaking her head slowly
"Udah do not be upset that, anyways we can get more extra money" continued Salma with a wry smile.
"Buk noodle chicken soup two, sweet tea cold two yes" Salma Messages
"Yes, wait a minute"
"Yes buk" they said simultaneously
"Zahara's... " Sapa Salma softly wanted to speak seriously.
"Yes? " Answer replied with a serious face as well.
"I know you may not listen to me, but try to listen to me first" Salma said
Zahara who saw the change in Salma's behavior tried to listen to Salma's words. Zahara did not reply he just nodded slowly in agreement
"Zahara's.... I understand all the injuries you've been through, without you telling me how you lived long ago, we've been friends since we were kids" Salma's speech was interrupted due to the arrival of soup noodles on their wooden table.
"It's his chicken soup noodles son" The mother put chicken soup noodles and sweet tea painstakingly on the table with sambal, sauces, and soy sauce on the table.
"Yes buk" they said together and did not forget to say thank you
Salma continued her words
"I know you're traumatized and it's hard to open yourself up to this relationship, but you should know Zahara, even if not all men are nice, you should try to step into the past and leave behind all your doubts and traumas in the past, you want until when like this? "
Zahara only listened to a word from Salma silently and did not hold at all the noodles that were already in front of him. While Salma continued to talk while painstakingly peppering her sop noodles
"Don't until the person you reject turns out to be the answers to your prayers all along, I tell Zahara, rejecting the proposal is okay, she said, but it would be better after you do Istikharah and ta'aruf prayers"
"Remember today there are rarely good people do not let what you refuse it turns out to be a very good man akhlaknya" said Salma while stirring her soup noodle soup.
Seeing Zahara who still bengong Salma immediately told Zahara to eat.
"Udah... Later you think again, eat first his soup noodles will be hunted cold" Salma resuscitated Zahara's daydreams and told him to start eating soup noodles that were already in front of him.
"Yes sal" Zahara nodded and began seasoning his soup noodles.
