It was getting nightly Latika was still standing there pensive. He stood before the door, his tears flowing, remembering the words of the Imam that were reflected in his mind.
Bik Ipah who realized that Latika had not returned for a long time, followed out. Bik Ipah saw Latika standing in front of the door, slowly he approached, "Non, Non daydreaming?," asked Bik Ipah to slap Latika's shoulder, who was shocked by her severed dream.
"Who came earlier, Non?" asked Bik Ipah, trying to get Latika to talk.
"Sir Imam, Bik," Latika replied softly, turning her face away from Bik Ipah, wiping away her tears.
"Non must have thought about the incident. It is better not to ask a lot of Ipah, later Non more sad, "guma Bik Ipah in heart, pull Latika's hand to invite him to eat, "Have Non not thought of. Come on in, eat."
Latika wore a fake smile hiding her sadness from Bik Ipah, nodding her step inside. Bik Ipah quickly closed the door, following Latika who had gone first, Latika pensively again her hand held her stomach, 'Hamil' thought Latika, pensive. Bik Ipah turned Latika again, his hand slapped slowly on Latika's shoulder to break her daydream.
Afriadi who was sitting in the living room glanced at Latika passing by holding her stomach, "Why is she holding her stomach? What hunger?," asked Afriadi, standing from his seat following them from behind.
Latika sits at the dining table, she is pensive again so does Bik Ipah slapping Latika's shoulders every pensive Latika. He didn't let Latika be pensive, "Taken Non."
Again Latika put on a fake smile, nodding to start eating the food provided from earlier. Just about to put the meal into his mouth, Afriadi came to sit nearby, come eat.
It felt like Latika just wanted to go. But, Bik Ipah who takes food for Afriadi codes for Latika to keep eating. Latika's stomach was also hungry inevitably he continued to eat with his hands slightly trembling to put food into his mouth, he gerogi eat near Afriadi.
Bik Ipah put the plate that already contained food in front of Afriadi, went to the kitchen leaving them both.
"Kok, my feelings are not good, like someone noticed me," he murmured inwardly, chewing his food "Did he pay attention to me?," glancing at Afriadi.
Hic.. It was true that he was watching Latika their eyes meet each other, Latika immediately choked, "Ohok.. Ohok.." the tablespoon apart from his hand shuts his mouth, trying to reach for the glass.
Seeing Latika choking quickly Afriadi stood up from his seat picking up his drinking glass, giving it to Latika, "This."
Tampa thought long Latika directly drank it.
Huh.. He let out a sigh of relief, "Thank you." his hand slapped softly on Afriadi's shoulder, which was patted glancing at Latika's hand that was patting her on the shoulder, when she realized that she was patting Afriadi's shoulder.
Instantly it..

Afriadi gave him some water to drink, "Now, drink some more." Latika's two hands immediately caught the glass and Afriadi's hands were held, he quickly memimumnya.

Quickly Latika took off her hand.
Hic.. Hic.. Hic.. Latika still hiccups.
"Don't think about the hiccups, just continue eating. It will also disappear" said Afriadi, returning to his seat.
Latika nodded continuing to eat.
Minutes pass.
They're done eating.
Afriadi stood up to leave the dining table.
"Wait, sir," hold Latika, stop Afriadi's steps, "There's something I want to talk to you about."
Afriadi flipped his body, he quietly tampa returned to sit in front of Latika, ready to listen.
Latika sighed, starting to speak, "I know my status now. There are many things I have not done and goals I want to achieve. Now that I've bonded with you, actually you also still want to live freely like me without any burden and responsibility. So I have a request with my father. I ask us to live each life, Father whatever I want to do not forbid also the opposite with me.
And you don't tell my friends that I'm my wife. I hope you can keep this a secret ..."
"I see what you mean. But, I disagree with your first request ... I know you don't want to live with me, you want your life to be like it used to be at the boarding house, but now you can't stay at the hostel anymore, you can't work part-time anymore. From today on you stay in this house all your needs will be met, because now you are my responsibility." Afriadi looked at Latika seriously.
Latika's head bowed, "Well that's all thanks for her attention." she stood up from her seat stepping away from Afriadi. Bik Ipah came packing the dining table. Afriadi felt thirsty after speaking, he took the drinking water and brewed it.
Just a few steps Latika stopped turning her body, "Oh yes, one of the most important things, you don't attack me like that night." Latika's words made Afriadi determined, he said, he stopped thinking that the water in his mouth wanted to come out, his face was a little red to meet remember the dawn incident.
He swallowed the water in his mouth.
Bik Ipah was only astonished to see the expression of his Master, his mind floated considering the dawn he saw his Master running away from the room Latika. Bik Ipah just laughed amusedly in his heart, understanding the words of Latika earlier.
Ahem.. Afriadi cleared his throat staring lazily at Bik Ipah, who in a surprised look quickly continued his work carrying dirty dishes to the back.
