My best friend, Maduku
Almost

It was getting dark, but Aly still had not set foot in the house. And for the second time, Alsya experienced this, waiting for her husband to come home.

In the past, he was still ordinary when Aly suddenly came home late like this, but not now. In the age of the womb that has grown up makes him often feel excessive worry.

The ringing of the phone made him gasp. Alsya immediately took it.

"Hallo, assalamualaikum, mas." Alsya said she felt her heart was very relieved because her husband called

"Hallo, hail waalaikum, Al. Honey, I'm sorry I can't go home tonight. He's still in the hospital."

Alsya. I don't know what answer to give her husband ?.

"Al."

"Yes, um ?."

"You're okay, right ?."

"Yes, mas. I'm fine."

"Where is hafidhz ?."

"He's been sleeping since."

"Oh thank goodness. Mas has asked Mbak Nisa to come home with you, maybe not long she will come."

"Yes, my mom."

"I'm sorry, honey. Do not sleep later, also do not forget to drink milk. "

"Yes, my mom."

"Mas close first huh?. Assalamualaikum..."

"Waalaikum salam."

Along with the death of the telephone connection, there was the sound of the roar of the car engine entering the yard of the house. Alsya moved and looked at it from the window. A car that was very familiar to him, well it was his sister's car, Anisa.

Alsya immediately headed to the main door to open the door and let her guests in.

"Their address, Al." Said Anisa with a warm smile and immediately hugged her sister's body tightly.

" Waalaikumsalam, maam. Come on, come in, mbak mas."

"Yes, Al. "

Both were invited to sit on the living room sofa. Alsya intends to take a treat but was immediately prevented by his brother-in-law because indeed his brother-in-law only came to deliver his wife only.

"Mas Affan didn't stay the night ?." Alsya asked her sister-in-law.

"No, Al. I'm just delivering your mbak. Yes, I went home first, huh ?. Honey, we'll go home first." Affan told his wife.

" Yes, mas." Nisa shakes her husband's hand.

Affan's gone out. Alsya took her sister into the main room she used to use with Aly. Both went up to the bed.

"Sir, Aly said what to Nisa's mom?."

"Aly was just talking about asking for help to take care of you, he said he was again in the hospital nemenin his friend."

Hearing Nisa's reply, Alsya could only sigh deeply. He put his body on the bed with his eyes closed. For some reason her heart felt uneasy, she felt that something had happened to her husband.

"Al." Nisa called out when she saw her sister's face that looked glum.

Alsya's eyes opened again, looking at her brother's face who was looking at her as well. "Yes, ma'am ?." His word.

"Why you?"

"Ahh, I'm okay mbak." Decak Alsya closed her eyes again making Nisa more curious about the attitude of her only sister.

Nisa turned her body towards Alsya, still staring fixedly at her sister's face."Al, you can tell me." Nisa again.

"Okay, ma'am, I'm confused too." Alsha answered without opening her eyes.

"Do you have a problem with your husband ?."

There was no response from Alsha. Alsya closed her eyes tightly. His heart suddenly fidgeted and grew increasingly unsettled and slowly a drop of tears suddenly had already welled up in the corner of his eyes.

"Alsha..."

"I felt that Aly was hiding something from me, mbak." said Alsya softly and then began to open her eyes and look at her sister's face that looked anxious.

Alsya shifted her body and placed her head on the lap of the brother hiding her face on the body of her brother with tears that increasingly swift also accompanied the sobbing of his tears.

Nisa's hand rubbed gently on her sister's head. Alsya is like this if there is a problem, she will make her brother's lap to vent his anxiety.

"Don't say something you don't know for sure, Al. You have to trust your husband." Advice Soft advice.

"No mbak, I'm sure Aly's been lying to me... I'm sure it is... Hicks." Alsya's words are getting sobbing.

"Are you sure ?."

Alsya.

Nisa fell silent, instantly reminded of her reflection a few months ago when she saw someone who was exactly like her sister-in-law walking with a woman in a restaurant.

"Already, don't think about it, it's not good for your health and your pregnancy, Al." Nisa rubbed Alsya's back so that her sister's cries subsided.

"How can I not think about it, ma'am ?. Look, Aly's not coming home now..." Decak Alsya is upset.

"Yes yes, I understand your feelings, but I ask you to also think about your content, if you cry child in the womb you also feel sad."

"What about Aly ?."

"Later mbak will ask for help from her husband mbak."

Alsya looked up at Nisa's face. "Totally ?."

"Yes. Already ahh, now you're sleeping." Nisa wiped the tears that were still wetting Alsya's cheeks. " Mom's going to the bathroom first." Say it again.

Alsya said, stopping her crying and then getting out of bed.

"Where are you going ?." Nisa asked confusedly seeing Alsya going out of the room.

"I'm going to Hafidhz's room first." Alsya answered and continued her steps.

Early morning greeting, Aly had just finished pouting his greeting while his hand was still gently rubbing the head of his sleeping baby beside Halimah. Instantly his eyes met the eyes of the wife's clear, diving into each of the manic depths of the two and a moment later throwing each other a sweet smile. Aly's outstretched hand stroked Halimah's cheek which instantly closed her eyes permeating the tenderness of affection from her husband's palm.

"Sir."

Halima opened her eyes. "Yes, um ?."

"Are you sure, to delay explaining everything to Alsya ?." Aly's question was still doubtful at his wife's request last night saying that Aly should delay telling Alsya about her relationship with Halimah.

Halimah smiled gently with eyes focused on her husband's eyes. "Yes, mas. "

"Why ?."

"I don't want my best friend's content to be distracted by the news."

Aly sighed resignedly. He had thought about it before if Halimah would definitely say that. Yes, she is also worried if Alsya knows about it because it will definitely have an impact on her pregnancy.

"Well, for the good of both of you." Aly rubbed his wife's face again.

"Mas you better go."

"What do you mean ?." Aly was a little surprised suddenly Halimah said like that.

"Go to your house. Alsya must be waiting for you, ma'am."

"What about yourself ?. "

"I'm okay, ma'am. Ummi will also come soon, right ?."

"But mas can't leave you guys here on deck."

"Yes..." Halimah looked at her husband's face.

Aly returned only to obey his wife. "Well, I'll go, but wait until ummi comes here." Aly's words can't be denied anymore.

"Assynoltom..." Someone said a greeting along with the door of the room that was opened.

"Goddessalam..." Aly and Halimah turned to the door. There it looks ummi and followed by two khodam ndalem, which of course one of them is Fikri.

Aly immediately shook the hands of her in-laws and then Halimah who also did the same.

And according to the agreement, Aly finally decided to go to everyone there to go home.

The hospital hallway has begun to be crowded because it is time for patient hours. Aly continued walking down the hallway and apparently passed by the sister of her sister-in-law's husband, Affin.

"Aly ?." Sapa Affin smiled at him.

"Yes," the two shook hands by throwing friendly smiles at each other.

"Where are you ?."

"Oh, this... It's all about seeing a sick friend." Aly replied a little.

Affin squinted his eyes fixed on the face of the man before him and looked around Aly like looking for something. Then smile and the mangosteen say yes.

Aly was a little relieved to see Affin as if to believe his words just now. But he doesn't want to be more sustainable. "Alright, I first yes, assalamualaikum." said Aly in a hurry but still looks relaxed.

"Oh yes, waalaikumsalam."

The two parted ways with different footsteps.

Aly further accelerated his pace away from Affin. He really felt like a big liar trying to save his lie by running away. Aly also just realized that the hospital he had visited was the property of the man, the sister of his brother-in-law Alsya. Because he was definitely making a visit at his place.
