36. Akbar and Laila's betrothal

Nia and Laila are now at the Bogor train station, after a more hour's journey from Jakarta.

Nia and Laila waited for their invitation.

Nia and Laila chose to ask to be picked up by her sister because their luggage was quite a lot.

Laila even bought new clothes for her and her family to wear at her engagement tomorrow. Indeed, the event is not celebrated, only family and close relatives are told.

Not long ago Brother Laila has come, while Johan's sister Nia has not been seen.

"I'll wait until Johan comes!." Laila

"No, you go home first. You'll want to get some rest quickly." Answer Nia.

"No, I'll just wait." Force Laila.

They are waiting for Johan together.

The distance from the station to Nia and Laila's house is indeed quite far.

They have to travel about thirty minutes by motor.

And almost an hour when using public transport because it will be a lot of stops.

Not long ago Akbar came, and immediately shook hands with Nia and Laila.

"Sorry you Johan late, the tyre was leaking, so I have to patch it up first." Johan.

"It's okay Jo. Kaka same sister Laila also not too long waiting for her." Answer Nia.

They left the station to get to their homes.

"Sister Nia healthy?" Ask Johan while driving his bike.

"Bad brother Jo." Answer Nia

"How are Jo's mother and sisters?" Ask Nia

"They're good Brother. From yesterday I was busy making food." Johans

"Food? Whose food is it for?" Nia

"Said Mom, make it to Laila's sister's house tomorrow." Johan.

"Oh!" Answer Nia briefly.

Nia asks Johan to stop the bike for a while, as they now reach the alley to Laila's house.

"Nia you stopped by yuk first!" Take Laila when she wants to enter the alley of her house.

"Tomorrow La! Tomorrow morning I'm there with Mom" replied Nia.

"Then, I'm first." Laila said before entering the alley of her house.

After Laila leaves, Nia and Johan continue their journey to their home.

It didn't take long, Nia was already in her village.

Mother, and her sisters were already waiting on the porch when she reached her simple home.

They hugged each other, hugged each other.

For a few months they had not seen each other.

"Neng, are you healthy?" Mother asked after hugging Nia.

"Mom is healthy?" Nia asked back.

"Mother Neng's healthy." Answer Miss Salma.

They also entered the house.

While Johan followed with a bag full of Nia's luggage.

"Then bring souvenirs for me?" Ask his youngest sister.

"Bring Dong. It's in the bag." Nia replied pointing to the bag that was on Johan's tent.

"Eh, your brother just got to, let's take a break." Said Ms. Salma to her two daughters.

"It's okay, ma'am." Answer Nia

Nia immediately opened her luggage bag, because seeing her two younger siblings was very enthusiastic.

Nia took out a box containing three watches that she bought last night.

"Jo, this is for you." Nia gave Johan a black digital clock.

"And this is for you" Nia also gave the Clock to her two younger sisters.

"Where's Jo, you like the Clock? Do you not know what your taste is like? so you choose according to your taste!." Nia told Johan.

"Good brother, I like it." Reply Johan.

Nia also brought out other souvenirs that she brought to her mother and sisters.

Nia was happy, Her family received her simple gift with great enthusiasm.

Ms. Salma brought a glass of warm tea for Nia.

"Rest First Neng. You're going on a long trip, must be tired."

"Yes, Mom." Answer Nia

"Oh, Yes Ma'am. Tomorrow we go to Laila's house early in the morning. You see Friends of the factory, Nia same Laila also want to come." Say Nia again.

"Yes, Neng. I've also made a change for you to bring it there." Said Ms. Salma.

"Yes, Mom."

After finishing opening the souvenirs, Nia entered her room.

Nia looked around her room, because it looked different after a little renovation.

In recent months, Nia has sent her money to renovate the house.

Nia was happy, Thanks to Laila invited him to work at PT Angkasa he could raise money to renovate the house.

Nia threw herself in her bed.

Suddenly she missed the man who was always there for her.

Nia took her phone in her bag.

As expected, some messages from Nata were already on his phone.

'Neng, where have you been?'

'Neng, have you arrived yet?'

'When you arrive, call brother! You're starting to not be able to breathe because kangen is the same you.'

Nia smiled faintly as she read the last message from Nata.

"Basic Lebai!" Nia Yell

Nia immediately calls Nata, because she misses Nata.

"Hello, Assalamualaikum... Unfortunately Brother. The beautiful, the plump, the Soleha." Nata immediately chased Nia with his fist.

"Waalaikumsalam salam, Brother." Answer Nia

"Neng, I'm there now! Brother can't stand kangen with you." Say Nata Again.

"Again lebay, uh!" Answer Nia

"Again no lebay, Neng. Seriously brother!" Nata

"Yes, Yes.." Reply Nia while lying down again.

"You've just arrived Neng?" Nata

"No really. I've been home for almost an hour." Answer Nia.

"Why did you call?" Nata is starting to get possessive

"I Forgot Bang." Nia said while laughing.

"What's? You may forget your brother. You know Neng. if your breath has a voice, it must be his voice, Nia... Nia... Neng Nitu."

Nia laughs with Nata's silly words.

"The point is excessive. Yasudah, I'll call you later tonight." Nia Yell

"Even though Abang still miss Banget Neng." Nata refuses to stop her bullying.

"Yes, I'll call you later tonight." Nia.

"Don't Night neng. The same! In the afternoon, I called you." Nata.

"Yes,Yes. I hung up on you!." Nia.

"Yes, Honey. I'll see you tomorrow, baby."

Nia hangs up because Nata won't stop talking if he hasn't closed his call.
