MY IMAM
Episode 9

Abi invites Ananda to return to the

their inns because the sky is dark. Abi brought two

young coconuts that have been used up they drink before to be discarded

in the available trash. After throwing it away, Abi started walking

slowly headed towards his room in tandem with Ananda beside him.

 Abi now began to dare to hold Ananda's hand without having to ask permission first such as

before, and Ananda did not seem to bother anymore about the skinship that they started doing often lately. Maybe Ananda just got carried away on her honeymoon

just think. However, in the eyes of others all forms of interaction they can now

it was felt that there began to be seeds of feeling that began to grow between the two.

Ananda did not know it was a feeling of love or just trying to reciprocate the love of her husband.

They entered the room after opening the door made of glass first, the aroma of soothing wood was immediately absorbed in the nasal cavities of both. Ananda

immediately went to the bathroom to wash his face while Abi began looking for his clothes for the Maghrib prayer in the mosque.

Ananda quickly searched for what her husband needed after drying his face first with a towel.

“Mas go first yes.” Said Abi who is now handsome in a cocoa suit and trousers and peci in the doorway.

“Iya mas.’’ Ananda answered and then observed the departure of the husband, until the wide back of the husband had moved away from where Ananda was then stepped towards the bathroom to take water

ablution and so on doing prayer.

***

Two pairs of Dion and Zian's legs go together to the Mosque together for Maghrib prayers. Since from the inside of the room until now it has been in the courtyard of the mosque, there is not a single broken word

out of the mouths of both of them. Or especially from Zian's lips. Dion was half-dead astonished, yet still he did not dare to ask too many questions.

Although often found by Dion since Ananda's marriage, Zian did often rally himself. But the man never looked this bad. Being asked will only just answer ‘Iya’ or ‘Not’ even only use body language. The swipe from Dion who would usually lure a curse from Zian also did not succeed in making the man let out his voice.

“Lu why the hell?.” Dion asked in a somewhat irritated tone it seemed that his emotions were already beyond restraint.

Zian turned to Dion with a face that seemed to not understand the direction of Dion's conversation.

“Lo daritadi it was just tau dingga?, I ask where you answer. I took you to the mosque lu just nganngguk doang. I'm tired like Yan, all the way to Bali his intention for the holidays even

looking at Lo's mouthful face,’’ Cerocos Dion by pointing at Zian's face of emotion.

But once again grouchy came out of Dion's lips when the friend also did not want to make a sound, until the qamat reverberated even Zian still chose silence.

“Oke, if so we go back to Jakarta tomorrow if LO does not want to tell.” Dion's final leaves Zian for

go to the ablution place.

“Stories now!” Dion orders on Zian that they both currently choose to spend the night at a lesehan cafe near the Mosque. Zian plays his guitar with

it was irregular when Dion issued the order.

“Gue with papa Yon. Ribet is very much Lu.” Zian said in a flat tone.

One blow behind the head received by Zian, he then turned to the perpetrator of the beating, “Sakit woi!!” Shouted annoyed Zian.

Dion did not care about Zian's words and even said back, “Gue is not one....two days know Elu ya bro!. It is from orok we become official, if Elu again gini tuh there must be anything.” Zian smiled at Dion's annoyed words. Indeed, the two of them have been friends since childhood and are often mistaken for twins by others so often travel together anywhere. Therefore also

they both know each other quite well, even better than their own parents. You can't hide anything secret from each other.

“Gue meets Ananda.” Brief words from Zian.

Dion stopped his warm coffee drinking movement because he heard a shocking remark from Zian earlier.”When?” Ask Dion.

Zian leaned his body against the wall then started to continue his words again.  “Barin.”

“Here! In Bali?!” Shouts hysterically Dion. Zian nodded uninspiredly.

“Thus that afternoon....,” Zian hung up a sentence to just let out his heavy breath, really.

it hurts to just tell a story about the ex-lover, doesn't it?,”....I

squirming with my own eyes Yon Doi in pairs of bracelets is as summarily

that's. I've been dating for a long time Nanda has never held her hand...... But that man?”.

Good. Dion now understood why Zian seemed so lethargic and uninspired. Ananda is here, here

with her husband. Dion could not even shadow himself if he became

Zian, it's better he never falls in love at all than he has to

experience something like Zian.

***

Deringan incoming call that displays the name of his best friend makes Ananda quickly shift the green icon on the screen of his mobile phone. And a hysterical screech immediately greeted the ears

“MA BESTIEEEEE!!!! I miss kangen!” Vanessa shouted across the phone.

“Aihhhh,,, slowly Sa.” times Remember Ananda to Vanessa. The one who was reminded instead chuckled not to feel guilty.

“Gue misses Lo Nan. How many days are you in Bali?”

“Three days back home, Mas Abi hgga can stay in the office for a long time.”

“Wihh!!! It's good to be on a honeymoon to Bali. I also want Nan.” times Whine Vanessa with a tone that makes Ananda feel disgusted.

“Makanya marry!” Ananda's insinuation that made Vanessa immediately felt hurt.

“Evil Lo, the doi has not married me ni huwaa!!!” hysterical lebay Vanessa again.

“Engga need lebay lo ah!”

“Hehe...., Ouh yes how is the honeymoon lo?” Ask Vanessa exited.

“Yes, sightseeing, eating together, shopping together...”.

“Mandi together?’’ Serobot Vanessa to the point.

“Crazy lo ya!” Shouted ananda as a reaction to his friend's bad question.

“Yes very sewot, story time Nand?”

Ananda thought for a moment about whether to tell others about his dilemma.

“Gue confused Sa.” Finally Ananda ventured to express his heart dilemma to Vanessa.

“Dilemma especially Nan anyway? You should be grateful that you have been the wife of an Abhimanyu Respati, you know that your husband is MOST WANTED among women?!” Vanessa said with a press

two words that were considered a little excessive for Ananda.

Vanessa said again, “Oke I understand the direction of this conversation Lo where, Lo still think of Zian again right?!”

On target.

Ananda's mouth was immediately twisted as Vanessa could guess what was on her mind. Being best friends since High School is not new if both have radar to smell something is not right

hit one of them.

“Gue tell you the same Lo ya Nand, I would rather agree that Lo same Mas Abi is not the same Zian. Zian the PLAYER Nand.” Cerocos Vanessa again makes Ananda's side that is still so loving

Zian said, “He has changed Sa, he has never messed around again. We

both are serious.”

“Seriously is she the same Lo?”

“He already has the intention to bed I kok,”

“Niat? Doang. Geez, all guys can say that this time Nand, the boy can also say that there is this video if I want to send it to Elo. Son smp ngelamatnya girl in front of class, I

aja amused see Nand,” Said Vanessa who sounded like a satirical tone for Zian. Indeed, from the first Vanessa never liked Ananda to be in love with Zian because the man was a female enthusiast, every woman who met him would end up being a good lover for the first, second, order, third and next. However, Ananda is convinced that Zian has changed since Ananda caught him walking with another woman and ended up with Zian pleading with Ananda, so Ananda is convinced that Zian has changed for her.

“Nand, all men in this world can say want to apply, want to marry. But just a little we can hold the shit, and of all the guys that Deletin Lo. It's Mas Abi who dares to sue Lo right?” Unknowingly Ananda nodded at the expression of his best friend.

“Gue sure Lo ngokguk now because of the words I just, because my words are real. It was Nanda Lupain the Zian, see who's next to Lo now. Sholeh man, man,

responsible, established. What is less?”

Ananda did not know what to say, he chose silence.

“If for example Lo do not want, yaudah Mas Abi for me only here!” Vanessa's original speech.

“ENAK AJA Lo! My husband it uh...” Shouted Ananda reflexes and then closed his mouth.

The reaction also invited laughter from across the phone, “Cieeeeee Temptations

Vanessa put Ananda to death.

“Rese Lo!” Shouted Ananda and hung up the phone call. He immediately covered his face with a pillow

yelling out in embarrassment, why could he react so quickly just

because Vanessa is talking about Abi.

Preoccupation with covering his embarrassed face Ananda did not realize that there were two footsteps approaching him and put a red plastic bag over the bedside.

“You've slept?”

Ananda pulled the pillow that had covered her face

“Mas Abi has returned home?!”
