MAHMUD, I Love U
The Unexpected Phone

KRUUIING

Mayra's phone rang inside the bag she had placed on top of the refrigerator. The owner of the phone does not really care about the phone call that goes into his phone because he is cool to enjoy a spicy dish with Wuni at the kitchen table. It was 11 noon. The right time to eat super spicy food.

That afternoon in Griya there were only four people, Mayra, Wuni, Anto, and Rendra. At 10, Mayra ordered four servings of seblak, which is not too far from Griya through delivery order. Nowadays everything is easy. Just order, then the food comes.

In Mayra's kitchen just with Wuni. While Anto and Rendra said they wanted to eat their seblak in the front garden while sitting on a chair under a palm tree enjoying the semriwing of the wind while counting the vehicles passing on the road ahead there. Lack of work indeed.

CRUIIIZING

Mayra's phone rang again after the first note was over because it wasn't lifted. Wuni raised her head gesturing for her friend to pick up her phone call. Mayra gulped down a cold mineral in a bottle and got up from her seat to grab the posel in her bag.

"Lina?" mayra was half shocked at Wuni when she found out that the one who called her was Lina.

"Last fast, Ma'am!" Wuni instructed excitedly.

Mayra nodded and shifted her phone screen.

📞 "Hello, Lin," said Mayra while still chewing on the remaining crackers in her mouth slowly.

📞 "Old yes!! What the hell are you doing?" lina Ketus' protest sounded like the old Lina. Across Mayra chuckled.

📞 "Hehe, yes, sorry. I'm living eating seblak from your grocery store that loh!" mayra replied mentioning the origin of the delicious seblak she ate. Warung seblak it was a subscription Lina, first.

📞 "You dong!!"

📞 "Here dong!!"

📞 "Bby. In Griya there's anyone today?"

Mayra's eyes rounded at Lina's question. He hoped his friend's question meant that he would come to Griya. Wuni who was still chewing was staring at Mayra watching.

📞 "There are two beautiful women, Rendra, and Anto as well. You want to come here?" mayra asked expectantly.

📞 "You guys are here, yes! Later in the afternoon, five o'clock!"

📞 "Huh??" Mayra raised one of her eyebrows confused while looking at Wuni. Wuni who did not know anything also raised her eyebrows, 'What's the matter?'

📞 "Later in the afternoon you guys are free right?"

📞 "Yes. We're all free. What's the matter?" Mayra is made curious by Lina who has not given a clear explanation.

📞 "Yes later in the afternoon I wait for you at Sand Beach, yes. But don't take Anto. Enough of Rendra. Tell him to bring a camera!"

Mayra scratched her temple confused, what's really going on?

Pasir Beach is the name of one of the beaches in the south of the city which is about half an hour from Griya if driving by car without traffic. It is called Sand Beach because the land is based on sand there is quite extensive before our feet touch the beach. There visitors can play beach volleyball in the afternoon while enjoying the sun that inched down to the contest. But the reason Lina invited her Griyanya friends there is certainly not to play volleyball, right?

📞 "What's the matter exactly? Halooow, can you explain to me, lady??" ask Mayra curiously.

📞 "Who? You??" Mayra nodded her head at Wuni who had not stopped watching her.

📞 "Not yet!! Who do I want to prewedd with? This is my friend's agenda."

📞"Hahaha, yes maybe right? Long time no news, then suddenly immediately spread the invitation could have been."

Lina across laughed. How could he suddenly scatter the invitation while he could not at all replace Rendra's position in his heart with anyone?

📞 "Yes I've been waiting for ya, 5 o'clock already got there!" lina said later.

📞 "Eeeeeh wait a minute! This is how it is? Decor, makeUp tools, right?" mayra asked who was still not clear received instructions from her friend who gave an impromptu schedule.

📞 "No need, my dear. We just need to bring a camera. You see, my friend just wanted an afternoon silhouette. Silhouette photos without a shower is also okay!"

📞 "Haahahahaha." Mayra's laughter broke. He strongly agreed with Lina's statement. Silhouette photos are indeed that simple, no need to polish the face at all so. "Eh if it's just a silhouette photo, then what's the point of me and Wuni dong?" mayra asked who realized that she and Wuni would have no effect there.

📞 "Come here. I miss you guys!"

Lina's last words managed to make Mayra speechless, then smile knots. He knew the girl opposite him must have missed. Lina must have lost her silly days in Griya. Mayra instead thought as long as Lina stayed away, with whom did the woman chat? Whose days were spent with him? Mayra instant iba. That girl must be lonely. And with Lina's phone coming that afternoon, Mayra hoped that the girl would rejoin Griya.

***

At 15:40, Mayra, Wuni, and Rendra were already in the car to get to the location at Lina's request. The three deliberately left early because they were too excited to welcome Lina who seemed to have opened up to rejoin Griya.

Mayra and Wuni sat in the back seat, while Rendra was alone in front driving the car like a private driver. Every now and then Rendra steals a glance at the two women behind him who are busy talking about Lina through her rearview mirror. Rendra smiled, she was happy that finally Lina really made up with Mayra. Whatever Lina's reaction to her later, Rendra doesn't care. The most important thing for him is the relationship of the two women who stretch because he is now improving.

The streets were busy that afternoon. Mayra opened half the window of her car letting the afternoon breeze in and wiggled her short, unraveling hair. Mayra smiled sweetly. His heart that was happy at that time became more and more happy. She can't wait to meet Lina with a client she says was her friend at Sand Beach. Mayra thought, no matter how angry Lina was at him, in fact the girl was still thinking about and fighting for Griya. Evidently by suddenly coming to the job without Mayra knowing. Maybe secretly all this time Lina still promotes Griya Cantika to her friends.

At 16:28, Mayra's white car arrived at the front parking lot. The car engine was turned off, but all three were still in the car. Mayra immediately opened her phone and contacted Lina.

📞 "Yes, May," replied Lina directly picking up her phone.

📞 "We're already in the parking lot. Where are you?"

📞 "I'm already inside, our clients are already there too. Here!"

📞 "OK. I'm there."

Without saying much, Mayra, Wuni and Rendra got out of the car and walked towards the beach. Rendra carrying a bag containing his combat tools, while Mayra and Wuni sauntered casually as if coming there just for a tour.

Mayra and Wuni walked in front both side by side, while Rendra tailed behind. From a good distance away, Lina waved her hand telling her that she was there. Mayra waved back Lina's greeting. But immediately Mayra's eyes rounded when a pair of lovers appeared from inside the stall and approached Lina.

Rendra who also saw what Mayra saw, suddenly pulled Mayra's arm strong until his steps stopped.

"May!!"
