Marisa left the office with several other employees. He walked towards the bus stop. But suddenly a new mercedez benz car stopped right in front of him. Then the car glass was opened.
"Go home with yuk Ris," invited one from the car who turned out to be Alvaro.
"Em, I'm sorry, sir, I took the bus" Marisa refused with a forced smile.
"Udah come in, all iftar, I promised you would break the fast." Alvero.
Marisa saw the surrounding, many employees who noticed them, finally Marisa opened the car door and went inside.
"That dong, where do you want to eat?" alvero asked as Marisa finished wearing her seatbelt.
"As for you," replied Marisa who was not comfortable going with her boss.
"Don't call me dad, it sounds like I'm a little old" Alvero said, looking at Marisa. Then drive the car to his family's favorite restaurant.
"Emm" Marisa smiled forcefully. What to call if not sir, is not Alvero his superior.
"Call Al if it's outside the office again" Alvero said as he looked at the confusion on Marisa's face.
"Em, yes Mas Al." Eventually, he was forced to obey Alvero's wishes.
"That's dong. It feels good to hear," said Alvero who then focused on the street in front of him.
All the way to Marisa's restaurant just silent, not much to say, just answer as necessary if Alvero asked.
Marisa feels her phone continues to begetar, she then pulled out her phone to check it. A call came in from Elvan. Just a regular call is not a video call.
"Thank you who knows what's important. Just relax it's out of business hours" said Alvero who saw Marisa just staring at her phone screen.
Marisa also received the call of Elvan.
"Assalamu'alaikum beautiful. Not home yet?" asked Elvan from the phone.
"Waalaikumsalam Mas, this has come home to mas, but.." Marisa glanced at Alvero who was focused on driving but still sharpened her hearing, eavesdropping on what Marisa said and the person behind the phone.
"But what? You're okay, right?" elvan asked, worried.
"Eh, yes mas, I was again invited to break the fast outside my boss mas. Yes, I will call again. I don't taste good." Marisa felt uncomfortable, like she was having an affair.
"Yaudah, don't forget to report. Oh yes tomorrow I will go home" he said happily.
"Seriously mas?" Marisa's voice was so vibrant. "I've washed the jacket Mas, Sunday mas take ya," he said again, as if forgetting next to him there is a person full of question marks with whom Marisa called.
"Yes, tomorrow when you arrive, you play at your hostel. You go home heart. Do not forget to pray maghrib," said Elvan.
"Yes, Assalamu'alaikum" said Marisa.
"Getishalight."
Marisa ended her call. He smiles at his own smile, imagining meeting Elvan. They hadn't met in person in a long time.
"Your boyfriend?" asked Alvero who was unable to contain her curiosity.
"Not a mas, my friend," replied Marisa.
"Close cement?" asked Alvero who was a little upset.
Marisa did not answer just nod her head. Then focus on the view outside the side glass.
Silent.
They no longer make noise. Drowning in their minds. Until they finally arrived at a luxury restaurant where they would break their fast.
When they had sat down and ordered food, Mr. Erwin Alvero's father had just arrived at Restaurant.
"Al, you are here" said Erwin after seeing Alvero and Marisa.
"Papa.. What's papa doing here?" ask Alvero in shock.
"Other papa has a business to keep stopping by here because he wants to open time. You ate both with your secretary? Papa can join, right?" asked Mr. Erwin who immediately pulled the chair to sit down.
"Yes, it's up to you, papa" Alvero annoyed.
Erwin sat down and ordered his food.
"You guys dating?" asked Mr. Erwin to Marisa and Alvero after the three of them had been quiet for some time.
"Not yet"
"No," they answered simultaneously but had different answers.
"Not yet and not that's different." Mr. Erwin was confused by the two different answers.
"I just wanted to get it but Papa was disturbing, instead" Alvero replied in annoyance. The woman before him was silent.
"Ohh.. Sorry papa if you've interrupted your date." Smiling at Alvero . "I'm sorry for interrupting your show" Erwin told Marisa.
"It doesn't matter sir, it's just a normal meal" replied Marisa.
Shortly after, the food came. And the Adhan reverberated, They broke the fast and then ate quietly.
Marisa and Alvero then go home because Marisa reasoned to want tarawih at home.

Next day.
Elvan is preparing to leave for the capital. After putting all his stuff in his backpack Elvan came out of Marisa's room. He then went to the terminal with Mr. Rahmad.
"Dad will try to help convince Marisa to accept you" Rahmad said before Elvan went inside the terminal.
"Yes, thank you very much. I'm sorry if I continue to trouble you" said Elvan.
"Here, don't be shy. If you mate, Dad will also be your family. Even if not, I still think of you as a father's son" said Mr. Rahmad sincerely.
"Yes dad, you're so nice, you know" said Elvan proudly.
"Oh yes, later if you have an answer from Risa, you immediately take care of the letter. You better get married after this Eid," said Mr. Rahmad seriously.
"God willing well, later Elvan will ask for help from my grandfather's friend who works in KUA to be helped by the process" said Elvan confidently.
"Concidentally, my father's sister is also a penghulu here. So later God willing can quickly process," said Mr. Rahmad.
"Alhamdulillah may be made easier well, Elvan just waiting for Marisa's answer alone" said Elvan
"God willing." Mr. Rahmad smiled.
"Elvan said goodbye first." Elvan Grab Mr. Ridwan's hand and kiss the back of his hand.
"Be careful on the road, yes" said Mr. Rahmad.
"Yes father, Assalamu'alaikum." Elvan waved his hand.
"Getishalight."
Mr. Rahmad then left the terminal. Elvan was sitting on the bus. Elvan then sent a message to Marisa.
[Assalamu'alaikum beautiful, good morning.] Elvans
Not long after Marisa returned the message.
[Waalaikumsalam Mas, morning too.] Marisa
[What are you doing again?] Elvans
[It's ready to go to the office again. So you're going home today?] Marisa
[Be careful Mas] Marisa
[Yes pretty] Elvan.
****************
Day
Elvan waited for Marisa to return home in front of her boarding house.
"Mas Elvan," greeted Marisa with a blooming smile on her lips. He still wears his face. And ran towards Elvan who was sitting on his bike.
"She's beautiful." Elvan also greeted Marisa with a smile.
"Where the hell is it," asked Marisa.
"Why? Kangen?" ask Elvan.
"What the hell, you're here to get a jacket?" ask Marisa
"Em, mas kangen you," said Elvan who made Risa's cheeks flushed. "Do you want to go?" bring him.
"Where?"
"Where are you going, how's the road around town?" said Elvan.
"Em, not far away but Mas, it's tonight" said Marisa
"Yes, I understand. Get changed."
Risa smiled, she walked in and changed.
"Mas, is Mas Elvan not tired?" marisa asked when she would wear the helmet Elvan gave her.
"Tired mas already lost after meeting you," said Elvan who made Marisa smile shyly. "You wear a jacket, don't wear it too thin"
At that time Marisa was wearing a thin cardigan.
"Yes, I went in again, change my jacket" said Marisa
Marisa went back in and changed her jacket.
Even a beautiful night they spent walking through the streets of the capital with their hearts now getting closer. Just going around enjoying the company. But they felt like they were passing through a flower garden. Only the happiness they feel.
Elvan pulled the bike over.
"Sweet martabak like?" elvan asked while taking off his helmet, he was still sitting on his moto.
"People like sweet martabak?" Marisa asked back. He was sitting behind Elvan.
Elvan turned his body facing backward, still sitting on his motorbike. He unwittingly releases the helmet Marisa is still wearing.
Marisa's beautiful hair was floated slowly in the breeze sepoi. Elvan, fascinated by Marisa's beauty, slowly moved her face. The quiet atmosphere plus the devil who possessed it made Elvan want to feel the lips that tempt his faith.
Elvan continued to slowly advance his head. While Marisa, she was a little surprised by what Elvan was doing. But he was still stuck and did not respond. He just stared intently at the eyes of Elvan who continued to look at him deeply. Like it wasn't Elvan he knew. Until their lips almost touched.
"Mas," said Marisa as she rewinded her face.
The awakened Elvan finally rewinds his head. Instantly he turned and faced forward. His heart is racing.
What I do. Marisa must be angry. Elvan murmured in his heart.
Stupid jerk. Why are you getting carried away. He hit his head..
"Mas.. Elvan why." Marisa seems worried. He hesitantly stroked Elus on Elvan's back. "Mas Elvan why the hell?" Repeating the question that has not yet been answered.
"I'm sorry, we'll just go home, next time we'll buy him the hammer. Hurry up and put on your helmet" said Elvan, wearing his own. And immediately drove to the Marisa boarding house.
Elvan was still silent. Only guilt is in his mind and mind. He will soon find the woman of his dreams. But because his stupidity that is unable to control himself makes him doubt that Marisa will forgive him. And it's possible that Marisa will reject him soon.
After traveling for thirty minutes, they finally arrived in front of the Marisa boarding house. Marisa then got off Elvan's bike and handed him the helmet she had removed.
"Mas, come by for a minute, I have something to talk to Mas about" said Marisa after tidying up her hair.
Elvan was silent for a moment, then he got off his bike after taking off his helmet and storing it.
Marisa walked first. And Elvan followed him behind.
"Mas Elvan sit down first, I want to make some warm tea for a while." Marisa then unlocks the door and enters the hostel.
Elvan then sat in a plastic chair that Marisa had appointed. He felt the heat in his body, even though the wind was blowing as cool as it was. Many times he inhaled as much oxygen as he could, in order to calm his heart that was pumping so fast.
What Marisa would say, she also resigned. Whatever it is must be the best. He assures himself that the soul mate is not going anywhere. And if Marisa wasn't his soul mate as smooth as any path she wouldn't be together. That's what he now believes.
"Please drink the tea." Marisa who came out with two cups of tea also invited Elvan to drink.
"Thank you." That's all Elvan said. He himself was confused as to what to say. Finally he sipped the tea. Sweet and warm tea made by Marisa seems to make it calmer.
"I'm sorry for what I did to you, Ris, I'm really happy" said Elvan regretfully.
Marisa sipped her tea. He also seems so nervous. He shaved again the flower-patterned cup. Then put it back to the colored plastic table in line with the middle chair he and Elvan sat in.
"Mas, every human being must have a wrong and a caliph. And Allah created you and I will forgive all his repentant servants, why not me" said Marisa.
Elvan was silent again.
"I want to give you my answer now, Mom, can you?" ask Marisa.
"Aren't you supposed to answer it in two weeks" said Elvan, now hoping to change things and convince Marisa that it was just a caliphate that would never happen again.
"So Mas Elvan won't hear my answer now?" Marisa who actually feels convinced by the answer does not want to buy more time.
"If your answer rejects me, let me use the rest of my time to convince your heart" said Elvan staring at the teacup before him.
"Why are you pessimistic? I told you my answer" said Marisa.
"That's Ris, don't turn around. You can answer anything now. But until my time is up I will stay close to you" said Elvan frustrated.
"Mas, I know why I don't want to date. Because I don't want to make mistakes." Marisa fell silent.
"What are your answers?" elvan asked, growing impatient.
"I want us to marry Mas straight away" said Marisa who made Elvan just silently in disbelief.
"I don't want us to make mistakes. So we better get married soon. I also know that Mas Elvan went to my father's house" said Marisa and then sipped back her tea.
"You're serious, right?" asked Elvan, who still did not believe Marisa, to accept her proposal.
"Yes, now you go home. Tomorrow take care of our marriage certificate. Dad said there was no need for a proposal because it would be a waste of time and money. Mubadzirs. If the family has agreed all directly to the house just after the marriage contract," said Marisa.
"Mas really doesn't believe." Elvan looked so happy. Shaking his head with a smile that never left his face. "Monday we'll take care of everything."
"Yes Mas, yes Mas has come home quickly, it is not good to see this neighbor is late at night," said Marisa.
"Yes, go home now. But tomorrow Mas pick you up yes we break the fast with grandparents at home Mas," asked Elvan.
"God willing" answered Marisa
"Yes, he's home. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Waalaikumsalam Mas."
Elvan also left the Marisa boarding house with a flower-flowered feeling. He even wanted to shout out his happy heart.
