NAURA'S SECRET BEHIND THE PRISON BARS
Me Time Naura with Kemal Pasha

"Mas Affan?"

"Where are you going?"

Naura looked at the sad-looking Netra Affan. Naura was so full. Iba also he saw Affan like that.

"Sorry, Fan! This is our privacy. You can't be annoying!"

"Naura has my mom's permission?" ask Affandi. He did not mind the ledge of Kemal that disturbed his heart and soul.

"It's mas!"

"Mama allowed?"

"Yes. Naura didn't come home more than 7pm!" naura's reply made Affan wrinkle his forehead.

"Until 7pm?"

"Why is that?" Kemal interrupted Affan's words.

"Sorry mas! There's something we need to talk about! Nau ask permission from Affan!"

Affan is weak, if Naura has already said please. As a result, just a nod of the head just a sign of his approval on Naura.

"Thank you, my! Nau won't cross the clock home!"

"Yes!" answer's lethargic.

Kemal smiled triumphantly. Satisfied that he teased the man titled Bachelor of Law.

In pongah style, Kemal opened his car door for Naura. Of course his intention provoked Affan's unrest. And his grim demeanor worked.

Affan's face was getting flatter. The man entered the flower shop without looking back at Naura. Makes Kemal laugh.

"Haish! The boy, the lawyer! Ahhaha..."

"Mas! Don't demean the Affandi mas! Affandi is not broken. He's so grown up! Even according to Nau, Affan mas is more mature than Kemal mass!"

"Don't you? You are huh? Now defend him! His mother supports you to be his wife!"

"Yahoo! Don't talk like that! Shame me! I'm not a teenage girl! Widow anyway!"

"But you're excited to play this game! You beg me to come give him a surprise on his birthday in cahoots with his papa mama!"

"Hehehe! I like to make people happy. Especially when it comes to giving others happiness. Affan always helps me! He's a very nice guy!"

"So I'm no good?"

"It's not so! Kemal is also a very good person! You guys are always nice to me. But this time, Affan forgot his birthday. He was busy at work and was busy helping me! Until I forget time. Forgot the 4th of September which was his birthday!"

"Hm, so! Then, you know my date of birth?"

"Sorry, mas...hehehehe... What date was the birth?"

"Haiiiiiiish! Yassalaa! How long have you known me, how long have you known Affan? Why does your birthday remember my birthday you don't even remember?"

Naura blushed. He laughed a little while setting a thousand words of apology to Kemal Pasha.

"Listen to Nau! I was born on May 11th. May Eleven. Memorized please! Remember, remember!"

"Hahaha yes! Sorry Nau mas!"

Naura laughed so crisply. Makes Kemal laugh.

"Yes already! We buy tarts first or where did this go?"

"Would you please take me to the clothing store?"

"You want to buy Affan's shirt?"

"Hehehe....! Naura thinks Nau's savings are just enough to buy a piece of a tie!"

"Dasi? Really want to buy a tie?"

"I yes. Why is it mas? Ugly if Nau just give me a tie? Nau's money is no more than 200 thousand. Nau had seen, the tie that his brand used to wear Affan mas cost at least 200 thousand! What...less good yes mas?"

"Not really. It's just, that tie.a sign you want to tie him up!"

"I mean mas? Me, tie up Affan's mas? That's not what it means, is it...."

Kemal smiled seeing Naura's face flushed in embarrassment. Finally he did not dare to continue his words about the tie.

Like Naura's wish. A tie from the house off Cuff for 200 thousand rupiah pas he has chosen as a birthday gift of the lawyer he so respected.

After being wrapped very neatly by a special cashier, Naura and Kemal continued their goal of buying tarts at Affandi's mother's request.

By 6 o'clock, they had completed their mission.

"We'll have coffee, Nau!"

"Just go home to his mother's house, Affan? I'm not happy, waiting for them. Sorry mas! Anyway, we can maghriban at home!"

"Yes, is it mas? Well, now we're looking for musholla first!"

They perform maghrib prayers in the basement of the mall's ground floor, before finally entering the coffee shop on the 1st floor of the mall.

Two cups of latte coffee and two cheese shredded doughnuts accompanied their casual chatter.

"I was relieved to hear that my mother would be invited to move to Ayuni's house to live with Lyora, mas! Thank you very much!"

"Your mother is like my mother too! Besides, I'm worried that I'm staying next door to your crazy childhood friend!"

"Ismail is not mad!"

"It's not crazy! But men don't have brains!"

"Mas!"

"You've been living next door to him for a week, I'm sure you'll be his wife!"

Naura stuck her throat. He's silent. Confused what to say.

"He's obsessed with you, Nau! Know it? The demons in your house were sent by him one of them. And it wasn't just him who sent the invisible creature! Your madam too!"

"Tita?"

"Yes. He wants your house."

"Then Ismail? Why would he send me that thing?"

"Of course he wants you to go back to the village so he can get married as soon as possible!"

"What's.... Ismail.still keep the flavor to me, mas?"

"Yassalaaam, Nau! You really never thought about that kid's feelings?"

"It's not so, mom! I have been very close to Ishmael since childhood! There are so many stories and memories with him that I can't forget. Ismail is a good boy! Never been so rude to me in the least. Only after graduating SMU did he express his love for me, mas! I haven't been able to answer yet, mbak Yun took me to move into his house. And...."

Naura stopped her story. Not feeling good because the story concerns the parents of Kemal Pasha.

"Yes. I get it, Nau! Ismail loves you so much! But it's his fault he did senseless things to get you. Moreover, he has a family. Wickedly he drove his own wife away without being allowed to take their child with him!"

Naura was shocked to hear Kemal's story.

"Ismail tells me that his wife escaped leaving him and his children!"

"Hhh..... That is! That guy wasn't as innocent and as good as you knew him in your childhood! He had turned into a demon-slaying human! I honestly feel sorry for him.

He loves you too deeply. But God, the Regulator of Everything, does not want his destiny with you. Until God gave her the soul mate of a kind woman. But he has no gratitude at all! Hhh..... He went down the wrong path. He gave fertilizer to the barren land that yielded nothing! He ignored the lush fruit plants instead.

Even with not having a healthy mind, he actually cut the fruit tree fertile.

You understand what I mean, Nau?"

Naura nodded.

"That's why, I always was was if you were with that kid! I don't even want to see you back home in your hometown. Because there is Ishmael! He really wants to ensnare you, Nau!"

Naura lowered her head. Between believing and not believing Kemal's words. But all was never thought of by him, if Ishmael became such a man.

"Mas, it'll be half seven! Let's go home!"

"Yes, come on!"

"Thank you, man! I am so glad to be your brother! You always take care of me. Help me whenever I'm in trouble! Even back when there was Fendy's sister, I was helping me at all times."

"Hhh... I'm just you think of it as Nau's brother? Even though your first kiss I stole?"

"Baby, ish! Don't talk about it! I don't like it!"

"Hahahaha.I thought you forgot Nau!"

"Where might I forget! But I don't like my first kiss being stolen by a man with a lover!"

"The man is single now, Nau! No pairing of partners. Don't you want to be that guy's partner?"

"No mas! Pardon,.... I'm more comfortable being your brother! Please forgive me! I don't want our sweet relationship as brothers to be empty because of this chatter!"

"Hehehe....! Don't be afraid, Nau! I still love you and love you with all my heart. I'm thrilled. You are now more decisive in determining attitude! No longer weak as before. Keep it that way. Say no if you don't like it. Say yes if you like it!"

"Mas! Hik hik hiks!"

Naura was very happy. Kemal Pasha is now really a brother to him.

Before Kemal starts his car engine, he thrusts a tissue box at Naura. Her smile expands even though her heart feels empty because Naura's love is not for her.

True love does not have to be. True love prays for the happiness and kindness of the loved one.
