In addition to being at the same age, Joy and Nadia also have the same hobby. Yes, their hobby is a walk around the mall and shopping. It looks like the two girls are already so familiar because of their considerable similarities. Their legs are also in sync when stepping into a store that sells a variety of female accessories. Even to the shoe store their steps do not hesitate, even to the place of eating almost always go hand in hand.
Joy is a jolly girl as her name suggests. Nadia even wondered, why from the same parents actually produced 2 very different children.
"Yes, Brother. Anyway Chandra's brother is much different as he looks. He's handsome, his face is also typical of bad boys today. But he's obsolete and stiff."
Nadia giggles. "Yes, anyway."
"Don't argue with him." tell Joy with a clear look.
"You, don't call me brother, Joy. We're the same age."
Joy rolled her eyes lazily. "Ck, it can't be. It's a sign of respect for my brother and family. Also ... as a big fan Brother. I'll give you all the information about Brother's husband."
Nadia was so moved to hear all Joy's sentences to her, until ....
"He never dated, did he?" I asked Nadia suddenly. Joy who was enjoying a milkshake was almost choked to hear Nadia's question.
Nadia took her breath. "Honestly, I don't feel good about Chandra. He looked cold and gloomy this morning. It usually does, but today it feels really bad. Did I make a mistake, huh?"
Joy smiled forcedly, Joy herself was confused by her brother's attitude. Chandra is so secretive, that no one will know how to fill the man's heart but himself. Joy knows a little about Chandra, but that's just a little bit.
"Ehmm, as far as I know, my sister has never dated. Hehe."
Nadia rounded her eyes. "Seriously?!"
"Yes. How to date, right out of High School brother directly enter AKMIL 4 years of education, continue him to continue school, do not know deh, I do not know what school. Also, never went home. It's at the most holiday home Lebaran doang. After completing education, my brother also chose the service to become an aid soldier to the war emergency area. Continue to be only 1 year this he returned to Indonesia, that was his duty in Flores," explained Joy with a face less interested in telling the level of his only brother's career.
Nadia smiled a little. "Perhaps not at all, when the task he met the girl continues to fall in love?"
Joy was speechless, she hurriedly laughed to hide her confusion. "Hehe, don't know either. But I guess it didn't get that way. Where do you want the brother to disturb his focus because of love problems."
Nadia was quite relieved after spending time with Joy at the mall, chatting and washing her eyes with nice things. Spending money is the most beautiful and fun thing.

Chandra just finished inviting grandma to take a walk in the complex park area which is now much prettier than before doing renewal. Fountains and fish ponds are back in operation and the children's play area is back on. Chandra smiled proudly as many residents of the complex returned to fill this park, reminding him when he was a child.
"Seriously, Son. You want to go back to Flores? Now that you are married, you are also his rank has not been playing games, general. You can move tasks anywhere, anytime. Just take a task at the office, do not work outside the area, let alone the border is minimal."
Grandma looked at her grandson with haru, they often separated and rarely met like this.
"Yes, Grandma. I want to develop the schools there. I want to develop education that is still minimal in the border region."
"Ck, grandma's happy to hear your initial ambition. But you can't think about your future. Your age is enough to have children of their age." Grandma pointed at the toddlers playing on the swings with their mothers. Chandra smiled, she also wanted to have children, but her desire was not as great as her devotion to the duties of an officer.
"Your wife is beautiful too, son." tell grandma again. "You don't like the time. You want to take him to Flores, too?" add grandma with a thin smile.
"Mom, I'll try. I'll do the best I can for grandma and mom's dad."
Different in the newlywed couple in general. The relationship between Nadia and Chandra feels really flat, especially today Nadia just spent time with Joy in the mall. While with Chandra, the girl just prepares dinner and goes to the bedroom together, nothing special.
Nadia accidentally takes a bath in Joy's bathroom, and shows up to the room after putting on her nightgown, while Chandra has just returned to the room after making a phone call with her men on the porch.
The views of Nadia and Chandra meet when Chandra opens the bedroom door and Nadia is on the bed with the object in her hand. Nadia smiles to greet her husband, making Chandra reply with a semi-formal nod, respect and disdain. It was as if Nadia was the commander who would give him orders.
"I have a gift" Nadia said as Chandra put her handphone and a book in her hand into a desk drawer.
Chandra frowned. "From who?"
"Ck, this is a gift for you. Wear it, yes" said Nadia cheerfully.
"But .. I'm not birthday."
"Haha, if you get a gift, it has to be a birthday, huh? Let's just say it's a special day for you. Naturally, the wife gave a gift to her husband."
Chandra received a box-shaped gift with a pink gift wrap with a small smile, indeed getting the gift can change someone's mood.
Chandra opened the gift quickly and neatly, not making the wrapping paper torn and one by one the adhesive he removed well.
And ... the contents made Chandra look up to look towards Nadia.
Nadia showed her cellphone that looks new, Nadia's phone is shiny black.
"Handphone couple, you have to use the phone. I bought it with the same color and type. You just attach your simcard to the phone," said Nadia ceria.
Chandra smile. "I still have a cell phone."
Nadia smiled. "No, you don't use that phone anymore. This one is more sophisticated, you can also video call. So, if you miss you can use that feature. And the most important too! You can use WhatsApp so that your work is easier" explained Nadia in detail.
"Hm, I'll use the phone. Also, thank you, huh?"
After getting a new phone, Chandra put his simcard into the new phone, and Nadia was beside him watching.
"Yeay, same thing," Nadia said as Chandra activated her phone.
"Eh, try you dial my number" Nadia asked Chandra.
Chandra then chose the contact menu and dialed Nadia's number, Nadia's phone rang with her own song ringtone.
Husband calling ....
Nadia chuckles softly while showing her phone screen on Chandra. It says 'my husband' on Chandra's phone number saved by Nadia.
"Hm. Thank you, the gift. I'm happy" said Chandra who was greeted by a steady nod by Nadia.
"Sandra. You, what time do you usually wake up?"
"Eh?" chandra was astonished.
Nadia smiled awkwardly. "Yes, I want to know about you. What time you wake up, what activities you do on holidays, continue .. what your favorite, what you don't like, I want to know all that. You say we're all in the process, I want to do the process."
