Mahram To Azira
Chapters 25.5

Yana nodded in spirit. Although somewhat bitter and smelly, Yana would still drink it because it was made by her mother.

"Ready, ma."

Then he approached me and kissed the back of my dear father's hand.

"Morning, father." She held it with a sweet smile on her face.

Dad smiled. His big hand moved around caressing the top of Yana's head lovingly.

"Good morning. Come breakfast, today mama deliberately make you porridge so that your stomach is more comfortable." Said the father while pulling the chair next to him.

Yana refused to sit there and instead pulled her to sit there. He sat next to Mona.

"God, thank you, ma. Actually, my mother did not bother to make me porridge because my stomach was no longer sick. Just drink turmeric water made by mama, the pain goes away immediately!"

Mom laughed to hear it. She was very happy to be praised by Yana. Which mother is not happy that her cooking is praised by her own child?

"Tuh, Yana just know that turmeric water for mama potent. Your sister Mona never wanted to drink turmeric water made by mama even though mama already masakin loh. The reason is that it smells and tastes bitter. Even though all drugs are the same, equally bitter, mama has never met sweet medicine." Pleased to be praised by Yana, Mama had time to give up on Mona because the turmeric water drink she made never wanted to be touched by Mona.

Mama was upset because she deliberately made turmeric water for the good of Mona herself. But Mona doesn't want to appreciate it as much as you force her.

"Mona never liked saffron." Mona said briefly while putting food into her mouth.

Don't ask when he's been eating. Seeing this family drama he couldn't bear to hear it so he immediately ate his own breakfast without waiting for them to finish the drama.

"Whatever, if you do not want to eat your stomach pain will not heal. Mama raise your hand." Mama said not happy.

Mona was silent, no huffing said mama. Deep in his heart he wants to say that he does not like being bandinginan with Yana. Perhaps Yana was resistant to the smell of turmeric, but not to herself. He does not like turmeric and more so does not like the smell of turmeric.

"Today you have some courses?" Ask Mona.

Mona picks up her phone and instantly sends dad her college schedule.

"Today there is only one course. After college Mona wants to go to the bookstore to buy Mona's lecturer's book because it is not in the library. After buying a book at the bookstore, Mona wants to go to Abah's house. It's been a few days that Mona hasn't been there, Azira's been looking for Mona." Mona explained one by one the schedule of her activities today.

Although upset by her protective father's attitude, Mona also realizes this kind of father is due to her own mistakes. If Mona hadn't skipped college yesterday, I wouldn't have doubted her.

"Gum." Dad checked Mona's college schedule on her phone.

After seeing that there was only one course today, father was satisfied.

"How much is the book? Let me add in." Dad took out his wallet.

Mona still has enough money. Since a while ago Kenzie and Ayana sent him an allowance, not to mention his untouched savings, Mona was in no way short of money.

But since dad was willing to give it to her, he didn't refuse either. Who does not love money?

"Maybe 150s." Said Mona doesn't know her range.

The price of the book he used to buy was not far from this figure and might be even cheaper.

"Now, don't forget to eat on campus. If Mona needs any more money, call me, dad." Said dad while giving Mona 5 pieces of red money, pretty much.

"Thank you, dad."

Mama glanced at the money in Mona's hands, then turned to look at Yana who had no money in her hands.

"Father love is also part of Yana." Mom said to dad.

"Dad loved Yana yesterday. Don't be so wasteful." Reject dad.

Yesterday he didn't give Mona any money and just gave Yana away. And today I gave Mona money but not to Yana.

Mama disagreed.

"The money that my father gave to Yana yesterday has been used up to buy clothes. I also know for myself that Yana doesn't have any clothes here."

Dad frowned,"3 million just ran out?"

3 million!

Mona looked at Yana annoyed. Jatah Yana is much bigger than hers, Mona does not accept.

"There's still left over, Dad." The word Yana neither refuses nor accepts.

Mona had a toothache seeing it.

"Say me when you're finished." It means you're not giving now.

Mama shook her head. While picking up the egg, Mama accidentally sees Mona's displeased look at Yana.

"Mona, come home later can you not have to play at Abah's house? Poor little brother you're home alone." Mama's good intentions.

He wants to close the relationship between the two of them. Mama really hopes that Mona will accept Yana as Ayana did. When Yana enters the house first, Ayana does not react as hard as Mona. It didn't take long for Ayana to accept the fact that she has a new sister.

Mona smiled superficially, "No way, ma." Reject Mona raw.

Mama is not happy.

"Mona, what did you say last night?"

Mana didn't say anything. Just try Yana did not reveal her secret last night, Mona might be able to compromise and accompany Yana at home. Because Yana is also her cousin. But what she doesn't accept is Yana revealing her secret in front of her parents. What would Yana mean if she didn't want to embarrass him.

"It's okay, ma. Last night Azira said I could go to Abah's house to play with her. Later I can walk alone to Abah's house, the place is also deket, really." Yana told me not to get angry.

Mona's out of patience.

"I'll be in soon, I'll go first, assalamualaikum." He kissed mom and dad's hands, then hurriedly left.

Sasa does not come home because today he gets afternoon classes while Mona herself gets morning classes. They are not in the same class but will occasionally meet in the same course because they are both one major.

"Family drama oh family drama, long time I want to be TKW to Saudi Arabia so I can be free from this drama." Mona said annoyed.

He is currently waiting for his online taxi to arrive. It took two or three minutes for his online taxi to arrive. So he had to wait in front of the house.

"Huh... Is the prince of heaven willing to glance at me for a moment? Congratulations-uhuk!" please!" Mona coughed at the sight of someone she was trying to avoid recently passing right in front of her eyes.

He had not expected to meet this person here at all - but, that person walked straight without even glancing at him at all. It was as if the person did not realize there was a lump of human standing by the side of the road.

"Good morning, Mr Al?" People on the street greeted him.

Al is very friendly. He took the time to return the greetings of those who greeted him.

The tightness in Mona's heart was felt again. Al obviously greeted those people, but did not want to stop greeting him - ah, let alone say hello glance no. Ironically, they knew each other but Al always maintained that they were just strangers.

Huh...

It's not Mona who wants to avoid Al, but instead, Al is the one who wants to avoid Mona. The reason Mona keeps her distance from Al every time they meet is because Mona doesn't want to be too hurt. He knew the story would be like this. Al would ignore him even if he stood right in front of his eyes.

"I'm why, anyway?" Mona lowered her head while holding her breath.

I don't know, every time he breathes, his heart gets stiffer.

His pouting face was now turning into a wistful, pitiful-looking face.

Stupidly he always said that he could not have this man, but always his eyes could not switch from that handsome figure. I do not know how many times he was disappointed, but his heart was always unwilling to listen and continued to raise hope... A false hope.

"Mona!" Sasa shouted out.

Mona subconsciously raised her head looking towards the origin of the sound.

Far away there, Sasa waved at him. He gave a gesture as if to say that Mona should come. His hands waved, and his eyes flickered mischievously glancing at Al who was now also staring at him.

Mona accidentally sees Al, and,

Deg

The eyes looked at him without blinking. There was no smile on his face except an emotionless flat look.

Indifferent, just like that day. Al never showed a smile to him. Perhaps ever since Mona expressed her feelings for Al, that warm smile instantly evaporated out of nowhere replaced by a grim, unfriendly look.

That expression never changed even today.

"Well..." Mona held her breath, feeling the pain in the heart that was back throbbing pain.

He lowered his head because he could no longer see that expressionless face staring at him.

"Mona, here! Greetings to Mr. Al." Sasa again shouted to him.

He even urged her to come soon. Mona actually wants to come, it feels like a longing buried in the heart really wants to be evaporated immediately.

Well, he misses her a lot. Perhaps only God knows how much he yearns for this man.

"I'd love to.." But when he saw Al's narrowed gaze on him, he knew that he shouldn't have been there.

Al might not want to meet him.

"I have a lecture." He said while showing his phone screen.

Right after he said it was the taxi he ordered finally coming. He immediately sighed again. Smiling faintly at Sasa, he did not dare to look at Al anymore.

Then he got into a taxi and asked for a taxi to come home.

"Come sir, let me in again." Said urgent.

"Ready, ma'am."

After the taxi, he felt comfortable. He held up his seat looking towards the outside window. As the taxi he was riding passed by Al and Sasa, he hurriedly shrunk himself while peering towards the window.

Fortunately Al did not pay attention to this taxi and instead turned to chat with Sasa. His indifference in front of Sasa slowly softened was replaced by a warm attitude.

It feels so sad. Nothing hurts more than what he sees now. The man he loved was as sincerely close to his cousin and best friend, for a moment he did not know what to say.

His body was limp leaning on the chair. Looked outwards with a blank look. His head was circling thinking about his conversation with Sasa the other day.

"But you know what, Mona, yesterday Mr. Al suddenly said to me to enter his class on time. Honestly, I'm surprised. How does Mr Al know that today he will be teaching in our class? Or gini deh that makes me wonder, where did Mr Al know that I was one of the students who attended his class?"

That morning he was actually very surprised, did not expect that one day Sasa would connect with Al.

His eyes only looked at Sasa unblinkingly, while his lips were unable to let out a word, "You don't think that Mr Al already knows me? If not, why did he ask me to come in time to his class today?"

Then Mona thought about how close Sasa and Al were this morning. Everything seems to be going well and Mona is not stupid. He is not foolish not to know that it is possible that the port of Al's next heart falls to Sasa.

"O Allah, do you also consider me to be an annoying woman? True, I myself also feel that I am a bitch. He now has a new love, shouldn't I.... Stop thinking about it?" His murmur spoke to himself.

He smiled wryly, wiping away the tears in the corner of his eyes, he took a deep breath to regulate the once chaotic emotions.

"Today didn't go well. Lately everything's been fucked up. First Yana finally returned home, both mas Al suddenly moved home to the complex here and lastly my best friend and cousin liked mas Al. I don't know how to describe how I feel right now. Maybe right now it's best for me to take the time to calm down. Being locked up in a room will not calm my heart. So what should I do now?" He himself was confused where to go. He did not have a destination to take shelter for a moment.

It feels very difficult.

"Bak," the cab driver called.

"Yes?" Mona glanced at him origin.

Upon seeing the tissue in the driver's hand, Mona fell silent. Touching the side of his face that had been wet from when the tears began.

"Thank you." He thanked her while taking the tissue from the taxi driver's hand.

The next trip was passed with silence until he finally arrived in front of the campus. While paying the taxi fare, he deliberately gave more and immediately fled before the taxi driver refused.

The small attention of the taxi driver warmed her up, too bad she was not her family, Mona thought empty.

Just a few minutes before class, Mona ran into the classroom before it was too late.

...*****...

Coming home from Mona campus does not go straight home. In accordance with his plan he stopped by the bookstore on the side of the road. This bookstore is a subscription to Mona. Make no mistake, although Mona usually likes to make trouble and spoiled, but she has a very noble hobby. He likes to read books. He likes books about religion and will sometimes read novels, but not just any novels. The novel he used to love to read was a religious novel. Usually it is about love in the boarding school.

And sometimes Mona will also read Chinese novels but through websites. Unlike the spiritual genre, the Chinese novels he reads are often themed about time travel or rebirth which is often associated with revenge. UM, he really likes revenge-related novels.

"Mona's mother, how did the tumben come here?" One of the female staff who already knew Mona came to say hello.

It has been almost two weeks since he came here.

"Yes, I'm busy in college. My lecturers at the loss of all conscience, the time of giving his duty is not about that I have never been here." Mona said while confiding.

"Duh, what a mess, mbak. It's hard to go to college and you can also eat heart, rather than complicate yourself with college tasks better get married." The staff was joking.

Mona laughed immediately.

"Eh, I want to. But dear my soul mate where, hilalnya still not visible. If you see, tell me right away, okay?" Reply joking.

Brakes

The entrance to the bookstore sounded. Mona and the staff were compact looking in that direction. As soon as he saw who had entered, his body immediately stared in shock.

"Ah, there's a customer. I'll excuse you, ma'am." The staff exclaimed glad to see a new customer coming to the bookstore.

This bookstore had a lot of staff, but as it came to be male and handsome, this female staff did not want to miss and decided to serve the man directly.

Mona regained her senses, she immediately withdrew her gaze from the man.

"Yes.iya, then I'll look at the book first." Mona said as she walked quickly into the sea of bookshelves.

"Oh Allah, why is Mas Al here? Uh, I'm telling you what the hell, he's here for a book! But.. The problem is I really want to meet him here!" Mona muttered her misfortune which met twice in a row today.

He claimed that today's meeting was his misfortune, but the hand that was touching his chest had betrayed his own mouth.

His heart is pounding. She was happy, ah.she might be happy to meet the person she misses so much. Even if only face to face, but just like that Mona was very satisfied. He's satisfied.

"No, no, no! Oh my God, Mona stopped thinking no." Mona patted her face so that she immediately put away this crazy thought.

"Okay, focus! I have to find the book I'm looking for and then go to Abah's house!" He warned himself of the purpose of why he was here.
