Icha
Pov Icha's.
"Tin!" I woke up when I heard my phone. With my eyes still soft and half conscious, I tried to reach for the phone that was beside my bed.
I saw a message coming in through the messenger. "From Lilian. Does he know that I'm getting married to Bang Abdul?" I ask in my heart.
With my heart racing, I opened the message.
"Cha, I want us to meet. Soon!" inscribed.
The deg! It seems Lilian already knew that. How'this? I don't want to make a fuss with my own friends. "I just chat Aura." I murmured inwardly.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Ra. Lilian ngajak Icha meeting, how about donk?" my writing.
After sending a message to Aura, I logged in again to the messenger.
"In the Lord. When, Li?" I asked Lilian.
"Now if you can." he replied.
"What's? Now then? Icha, Icha, can't I?" ask again.
"Please. I'll wait for half an hour at Pak Warto's meatball stall."
"Well, Li." I said briefly.
I glanced at the clock on my watch. It's 14:22WIB now.
"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Sorry Cha, Aura just replied. Just meet, don't be afraid." she wrote.
"Yes, Ra. You're coming with ya."
"In the Lord. When's meet?"
"About 3 o'clock at Pak Warto's meatball stall."
"In the Lord. Then Aura get ready now huh. Aura will be notified when she leaves."
"Good, Ra."
After that, I started getting ready too. Whatever happens, I have to deal with it. Marriage is in sight.
I know Lilian really liked Bang Abdullah, she told me that secret a long time ago. It's just that he doesn't know that I like Bang Abdullah too.
When I found out that Lilian and I liked the same person, I relented without her knowledge. I did not think that Allah made Bang Abdullah my soul mate.
The clock has shown at 14:55WIB. I went to Pak Warto's meatball stall on my favorite motorcycle. When I got there, I didn't see anyone. Lilian and Aura had not arrived yet, I sat down and waited for the two of them.
"Chi, Cha. Have you been waiting a long time?" lillian asked as soon as she arrived and immediately sat facing me.
"No, Li. Icha has arrived too." I replied.
"Where aura? You said you wanted to take Aura too." asked Lilian again.
"Emm, it seems like it's still on the way." I replied as I wiggled around looking for Aura's figure. "Well, that's it." I continued while pointing at Aura who was on foot.
"Alhamdulillah, Aura finally arrived. Today the weather was quite shaky yes, making it sultry." said Aura when she arrived at our table, then she sat next to me.
"Let's order a drink and meatballs. Meatballs here are my favorite." said Lilian.
Me and Aura nodded our heads in unison.
"Bang, here Bang. We want a message." said Lilian and called one of the servants.
"Awi, please record the order of table number 5." orders Pak Warto on his workers.
"Well, sir" said the man named Awi.
"What do you want to order?" ask her after arriving at our table.
"I ordered meatballs and orange juice" Lilian said.
"I want chicken meatballs and sweet iced tea" I told Bang Awi. "aura?" my continue.
"Aura wants chicken noodles meatballs and carrot juice" he replied.
After writing our order, Bang Awi left us.
"Cha, is the news that I heard true, huh? You're soon to be married to Bang Abdul?" tanya Lilian started the conversation.
"Congratulation yes. Finally you marry too, the same perfect person." said Lilian.
I just fell silent, not knowing if I should be happy to hear his congratulations.
"Hey, why shut up? Are you afraid I'm angry? Just relax, Cha." said Lilian again.
"So Lilian wasn't angry?" ask Aura.
"No, why be angry. The one who has the right to vote is Bang Abdul. If he did choose Icha, what would I do?" said it.
"So you're not mad at Icha, Li?" ask her.
"Well, why be angry? I liked Bang Abdul first, now there is no sense of anything anymore" he explained.
"I'm sorry, Li. Icha think you want us to meet here, because I want to anger Icha." I said frankly to him.
"Ah you are overdoing it, su'udzon is the name" Lilian said and patted my arm softly.
"Yes, sorry." I said.
"I want us to meet here because we want to buy meatballs. Who knows, after Icha gets married, we even become difficult to meet." said Lilian.
"Yes, that's right. After Luna married also Aura has never met again with her." said Aura.
"Oh, so. But later keep in touch yes, from the wasp or messenger." I said.
"It is Allah." said Aura.
"But I'm jealous as you are Cha. When did I apply for a prince like Bang Abdul? Okay, tall, white, smart, sholeh anyway, hurmm." said Lilian and looked me in the eye.
"This is Allah, Allah has prepared the best for you, Li." said Aura.
"Aamiin." said Lilian.
"Icha also did not expect that Icha would marry Bang Abdullah" I said slowly.
"You should be grateful, Cha. If you don't want to, just treat me the same. Hahaha." said Lilian with a small laugh. "Honestly, now you must have fallen in love with him. Aye right? Hayo ngaku, hayo ngaku." said Lilian teasing me.
"Hehehe. Yes, a little." I said grimly.
"There are also many that do not prohibit" said Aura.
"Yupzz." said Lilian.
"Eh, our food has come" said Aura when she saw a soft call named Awi coming. He put the food one by one on the table.
"Please, Ma'am" he said after finishing arranging food on the table. Then leave us.
"Thank you, Bang." I said.
"Good fun, Cha, Ra. Let's eat, I'm hungry." Lilian.
"Yes." said I and Aura simultaneously.
"Oh yes, Ra. Do you have any plans to get married?" lillian asked while eating the food in front of her.
"Yet, Li. What about you?" Aura asked Lilian.
"Me, not yet. Nothing serious yet." Lilian replied.
"Maybe serious ones already exist, but you're the one who chooses too much." I chimed in on their conversation.
"No really. I'm not as picky as Aura." Lilian said.
"Why did it become an Aura?" ask Aura.
"Yes, even if we rarely communicate, but I know that you have rejected the application several times. Right, right?" ask Lilian.
"Yes, right. But not because Aura was picky, but because she had not met a suitable one" Aura replied.
"Well, I did too. Haven't met the right one in the heart." said Lilian.
"Did Bang Rizky not match up with you, Ra?" manya curious.
"Rizkiy? Who's Rizky?" ask Lilian.
