"Assalamualaik."

"Waalaikumussalam," replied Ameera while wiping her hands because she had washed the used coffee glass. Ameera approached her husband, then kissed Mas Mu'adz's hand.

"Well, how are you getting ready?"

He nodded for a moment. "Ajenge teng pundi?" tanyanya while walking hand in hand with Mas Mu'adz towards the room.

"Loh Mase Dereng said to want to? koyok e sampun -."

Remembering again, it seemed that her husband had not told her anything. "Huh? when's Mase? ajenge teng pundi?" tanyanya.

Arriving in the room, Mas Mu'adz embraces him sitting on the edge of the bed. "Nduk e purun did you ride Dek Shahla?"

His body stiffened looking at Mas Mu'adz. Honestly, he was not ready to meet or talk to Shahla. "Mase mboten long-drawn. Nduk e kan rencange Dek Shahla, mosok ajenge mboten. Nopo maleh sak niki sampun dadi family."

Slowly his head lowered, thinking about Mas Mu'adz's words just now. "Down is Nduk e?" He bit his lower lip, though hesitantly he nodded his head, agreeing to Mas Mu'adz's invitation.

"Alhamdulillah, not even ready. Mase nyiapne motore - riyen." After saying that, Mas Mu'adz left but before that Mas Mu'adz stroked the top of his head.

The door of the room was closed, he was still not moving. Thinking about what would happen later after he met Shahla.

Getting angry?

Sinicals?

Mouthfighting?

or even shut each other up.

He shook slowly, resigned. What will you say later. Confused himself if you continue to think about how to behave towards Shahla. Though his position he did not want to seize anyone or betray Shahla. But the road is like this how else.

Hopefully Shahla will understand later, if she has explained how she can become Mas Mu'adz's wife.

But, given Shahla's stubborn nature, it made her riled back. Not sure if Shahla would accept all this easily. Moreover, Mas Mu'adz was the person Shahla wanted the most. Yes, I know very well about that. Since the incident he caught Shahla again looking at the photo, Shahla became open about how she felt about an older cousin who was none other than Mas Mu'adz, her own husband. At first it really does not know who the figure of the older brother who coveted Shahla.

Deep guilt. Is he really a traitor?

"Cook for ae Nduk e?" Mas Mu'adz asked with a pat on the back of his hand. It was as if he was returning to the world. He also stumbled on his own.

"Pripun Mas e?" ask her in a louder voice. Because of the noise of the road.

"Nduk e ojo daydreaming ae, ket want to see." The voice of Mas Mu'adz behind the helmet is no less loud.

"Enggeh Mas e, mboten coke."

Shortly thereafter the motorbike we were riding both entered the residential area. Though inwardly wondering, why come here instead of going to the hospital. But he just kept quiet without asking Mas Mu'adz. Up in front of a spacious two-story house, beautiful but simple.

Seeing Mas Mu'adz get off the bike, he also came down. Mu'adz opened the gate, then led the motor into the garage. "Come on Nduk e, but look."

"Nggriyane Synthetic Mase?" Walk towards Mas Mu'adz.

"Dzarrin's Father. Come on!" take Mas Mu'adz while holding his hand.

"Assalamualaik." Mas Mu'adz's voice jerked him in a daydream.

There was a greeting reply from within, before long the sound of the door opening featured a middle-aged woman he did not know.

"Owalah Gus's. Mongos!" After being released, he and Mas Mu'adz sat down.

"Mas Dharrin kaleh Mba Lana teng tasek an Gus hospital" said the middle-aged woman.

"Enggeh Bulek, wau Ayah sampun sanjang. Deck Shahla?"

"Oh, enten-entents. Kulo leadne riyen, nopo pripun?"

"Mboten naga Bulek, kersane kulo kaleh Nduk e seng mriko."

"Oh penggeh even, kanken kulo teraken mriko show."

"Play fit, tepak kangen kopine Bulek." The so-called Bulek only chuckled at the answer from her husband.

She just quietly listened to the conversation of her husband and what Bulek called by her husband. It seems very familiar. Suddenly his heart beat rapidly as Mas Mu'adz pulled his hand towards the second floor which he believed was Shahla's room. Not to guess again why Mas Mu'adz could know the location of Shahla's room, because they have been familiar since childhood.

Arriving at the beige door that was not closed, Mas Mu'adz knocked slowly not to forget the greetings.

"Wa'alaikumussalam, enter Mase's mawon."

Hearing Shahla's voice from inside the room, he made her stare beside Mas Mu'adz, who was not visible from inside due to the wall's obstruction. His mind kept going around in circles, what should he be?

"Healthy even hapean ae." Mas Mu'adz stepped in, while he was still standing in his place.

"Loh-loh Bulek Marni puri kok mboten and sari," said Shahla.

"Loh!"

Seeing Mas Mu'adz approaching while extending his hand, he shook his head slowly. "Come, mboten nopo-nopo kaleh Mase." Seeing the reassuring gaze of her husband, she slowly welcomed Mas Mu'adz's hand and grasped it tightly, her feet began to step into Shahla's room. Shahla's signature fragrance is smelled in her senses. Still in a down state, he was led by Mas Muadz to sit on the sofa. This was the first time he had been in Shahla's room even in Shahla's house. During this time he was close and even friendly but had not visited at all in each other's homes.

"Mase rene pingin ngerampunne trouble." Hearing the firm words from her husband, made her even more nervous.

"M-the nopo problem Mase?" Shahla sounded nervous as she seemed.

"Mase knows Lek Dek Shahla -"

"Eum Mase, Shahla radi mumet, Shahla break mawon nggeh!"

"Mahla!" Mas Mu'adz's voice firmly pierced the hearing. "Ape to when to stretch the time. Mase didn't want Dek Shahla to misunderstand. Mase karo Nduk Ameera rene mek apelisne tok Deck!" mas Mu'adz's voice turned softening back.

Still looking down, she did not look at her husband or Shahla at all. He heard Mas Mu'adz begin to tell him how he got married. All told in a row without being reduced or exaggerated Mas Mu'adz. To the point of unconscious tears trickling down, considering he lost the only person he loved the most leaving him alone in this world.

"Sepurane Deck. Unknowingly Mas e wes saluting sampeyan. Sampek kapapapun Dek Shahla tetep sister e Mase." Mas Mu'adz said that while embracing it, calming him who was now sobbing.

"Sepurane La." His voice was hoarse mixed with tears. "Sepurane, I don't mean to stay until, '" he continued.

"Mase. Shahla ajenge rest." Shahla's words made her sob.

Shahla did not forgive him.

Shahla still considered him a betrayal.

"Mase knows Dek Shahla needs time. Mase. Assalamualaikum."
