How Will You Say Goodbye?
Preparation

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us to Bridal?" Madame Zehra asked Rey as they were all busy with their breakfasts.

"I want to finish the work that's been piled up, Ma. After Kinan and I get married anyway, I'm going on a very long leave so my job has to be completely done." Rey replied seriously as she chewed the bread.

"What do you mean by a very long holiday?" Shirt Mr. Yazid suddenly.

"I'm going on my honeymoon with my wife, Pa. Plus, I'll be busy taking care of Kinan's needs which will give birth in a few months." Rey semringah.

Master Yazid nodded, it turned out that his son had thought of it to that extent.

"Eat him, Papa don't think about the work constantly." Mistress Zehra's insinuation to her husband. Master Yazid just nodded slowly.

"Mas, you don't need a long leave. I can take care of everything." Connect Kinan.

"No! I have to spend a lot of time on both of us and our future son." Rey replied with a smile looking at Kinan.

The four of them continued the breakfast session with a light conversation about the wedding reception that was about to happen. In a matter of months, Rey and Kinan will be officially married.

Actually Kinan wanted to postpone this marriage on the grounds of his divorce with Ammar not too long ago. But Rey's family continues to convince him and again Kinan does not want his son born but he and Rey are not officially married. Kinan eventually agreed but the marriage was known only to those closest to him. He did not want an excessive marriage and they all finally agreed with Kinan's request.

...🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸...

Rey is smiling staring at the screen of her phone, she just received a picture message from the mother, which contains a photo of Kinan in the middle of using several models of wedding dresses.

"Everything suits you to wear." Rey muttered with a smile staring at the photo of the future wife. He regretted not being able to come to the bridal and had to be in his office as he is now. Inevitably he must return to work, even though this company belongs to the Father, but Rey must be professional and not show his playful attitude again in the world he has wrestled with.

"I'll see you wear that wedding dress in person later. On our wedding day." Rey muttered again. He dissolves in his own delusion while continuing to display an unrelenting smile.

Suddenly Rey's phone rang, her mother called her. Rey scratched her temple for a moment before receiving that incoming call.

"Why don't you return Mama's message, Rey? Which one is suitable for Kinan?" The mother's voice sounded loud to Rey.

"Everything fits if Kinan wears it, Ma." Answer Rey flat.

"You're! Choose the most suitable!"

"I'm serious, Ma. Everything fits. Pretty Kinan uses anything!" Said Rey while smacking her smile.

The mother's voice sounded like she was talking to someone else across the street.

"Mas, which one do I wear best?" Suddenly Kinan's voice asked over the phone.

"I like everything, why not just wear it all?" Rey said softly, Kinan heard clucking from across there.

"Seriously please, Mom!"

"I'm serious, honey!" Rey folded her lips into a straight line. For the first time he called Kinan like that and he was sure that now Kinan's face must have been flushed there.

"Well, I'll turn the phone off!" Answer Kinan awkwardly then. Rey saw his phone which turned out to be completely disconnected from the call. Rey smiled to herself imagining Kinan's current face as a result of his earlier remark.

"Ah, waiting a month feels like a long time!" Rey muttered as she put her phone on her own desk. He became lethargic and discouraged to continue his work. His mind was filled with Kinan now. He shook his head slowly because he was inexhaustible with himself at this moment.

"Yes yes, Nyuk! Coming home from London doesn't like me!" Kevin said when they met at a cafe after work.

"So you want to see me just want to talk about this?" Ask Rey sarcasm. "Gue thinks it's important, mrs! It was good to go home immediately." Rey.

"Cih, mentang-about prospective wife you now live in the house, you so at home and want to go home quickly?" Kevin scolded and shook his head for a moment.

"Now..Nyuk..usually also you most anti go home to Bokap, lo!" Kevin pretends to hit Rey right now and Rey glares sharply.

"Asem lo, Nyuk!" Said Kevin while wiping his lips with a tissue. Rey chuckles at his best friend who always acts silly in front of him.

"What's his name, Nyet? Forgot me." Ask Rey seriously.

"I don't know who you mean!" Lying Kevin.

"Ah, Desi... Yes Desi is his name." Rey replied after thinking for a while.

"What the hell lo! I've been working hard for a long time, Nyuk! Not because there was Desi. You think I'm like lo?"

Rey shrugged her shoulders and didn't care. A second later Rey looked the other way.

"Nyet, it's Desi same guy so friendly!" Rey's chirps while pointing one way with her index finger.

"Are you serious?" Reflex, Kevin saw the direction referred to by Rey and it turns out that there was no one there including Desi.

"Breng* lo!" Said Kevin after realizing that Rey turned out to work on him. Rey chuckles at her own actions and Kevin's absurd attitude.

"Awas aja lo! I'll work you back!" Knock Kevin.

Rey shakes. "What dare you?" Rey showed her fist in front of Kevin and Kevin reflexively shook his head.

"About martial arts experts, want to play bogem-bogem only!" Kevin grumbled while stroking his own nape.

"So you really want to get married, Nyuk?" Kevin and Rey asked confidently.

"You know, tonight we're party dong, Nyuk! Usual.."

Rey understands the direction of Kevin's conversation, which is none other than taking him to the Club and drinking like they were in the past.

"Gue is retired, Miss! It's a long time ago and I can't go back to that time." Rey answered while glaring into her darkest times.

Kevin nodded in agreement, in fact he only tested Rey, because he had not been in the usual place they spent the night since college first. He seemed to realize now, that they were getting older and had unknowingly left those times.

"Gue wants to change, ma'am! I'll soon be a father. If you follow that, it will have no end!" Rey suddenly got serious.

"...Besides, to go back to that time was impossible, I realized time was moving and I was getting older..." Rey continued again with a slanted smile.

Kevin looked at Rey as he digested the young man's words.

"Gue salute you. ke-bucinan lo, make you change for the better!" Kevin Eject.

"Lo muji or mocking, Nyet?" Rey snorted and Kevin chuckled.

"When can I change?" Ask Kevin to Rey.

"Lo get Desi married! You must have changed.." Rey doesn't want to lose.

"Haha, am I marrying him? it changed, Nyuk! But what did it turn into? You know the jutek and nagging Desi, how? Could've been me, if she'd been my wife." Kevin pretended to shudder with his own words.
