Rahim My Friend
Chapters. 28

"When we ate together at one of the restaurants back then, sir?" answer Nirma. "There's Jenny and Jenny's parents too."

Here Nirma feels disrespected by Jenny's husband. They were clearly talking and getting acquainted at the time. But in fact Ali did not recognize Nirma at all.

"While unbeknownst to you we slept together! Jenny could have a faithful husband like you." Nirma is upset in the heart. The woman immediately chose to order her favorite kebab.

"You bought kebabs too?" ask Ali.

The question from Ali instantly made Nirma speechless. The woman who still did not believe because Ali asked her to speak was also circulating her eyes around. There was no one there but the two of them.

"You're talking to me, sir?" ask Nirma.

"Yes. I'm asking you to talk. Did you buy kebabs too?" Ali repeated the question.

"Yes. I have loved kebabs lately. I always buy kebabs here. What are you doing here? Is Jenny here?" Both Nirma's eyes moved wildly looking for Jenny's figure. But Jenny was not there.

"Jenny wants kebabs. But he's not here. I forbid him to come out. It was night and the air was getting colder. Not good for pregnant women exposed to the wind of the night like this. You should also go home after getting the kebab you want. You're afraid tomorrow you could be sick." Ali spoke at length this time.

Making Nirma pensive for a moment. The woman did not believe it because Ali paid attention to her. "What's it like to have a boyfriend?" his mind is sad.

"What's your name?" Apparently Ali surprisingly went back to asking about Nirma's name.

Again made Nirma upset half to death because they both had spoken at length. But in the end Ali still could not remember his name.

"My name is Nirma, sir," replied Nirma.

"Oh so. I will try to remember it. I usually never remember names that are not important to me. Oh how much, sir?" Ali turned his attention when the kebab seller called him that his order was done. Ali spent a sum of money that was nominally much larger than the price of the five kebabs.

"This is the change, sir."

"No need, sir. That's for Dad only. Let's just say I'm sharing happiness because my wife is pregnant. Please pray that my wife is always healthy until she gives birth. After this, go home. It was night and the air was getting colder. Yes thank you." Ali also asked the kebab seller to go home immediately because the air was getting colder.

Ali's words were not just addressed to Nirma. After getting his order, Ali immediately left from there and he did not even say goodbye to Nirmala.

The man just left and got into his car. Shortly after, Ali's car left the place. Leave a sense of annoyance and anger in Nirma's heart because Ali never appreciated it.

"How could he do that to me? Could he have paid such attention then he also said that to the kebab seller? I don't know why I feel like an insult!" Nirma was upset.

"Miss, what did you order?" A kebab seller asked Nirma. But Nirma was upset.

"Not so!" Nirma left the place with an immeasurable annoyance.

...***...

"Then what's your next plan, Jen?" nirma asked Jenny who was stirring her order cold drink.

Both are currently in a restaurant. The two were enjoying lunch together. Since Nirma was pregnant, Jenny often invited Nirma to have fun. The two had lunch in one of these viral backstreets.

"I don't have an idea for that, Nirma. Everything seems to go wrong for me. The problem is I can't keep lying either. If it keeps going on like this then I can get caught if I don't get pregnant." Jenny expressed her fear as her lies grew longer as if they were becoming more and more hidden. What else is the nature of Ali who is increasingly possessive since the news of the pregnancy was known. Jenny did not dare to go to the salon or shop because she felt guilty.

"I don't have any ideas either. I've been pretty lazy lately, Jenny. Soon, my stomach might be getting more visible. You know what I mean, right?" Nirma explained how she had been living her days lately. Now Jenny looked at Nirma. "I also didn't dare to go through my pregnancy alone. I need a friend. At least someone who can defend me when someone misunderstands my pregnancy."

"yes too. You also have to hide your stomach because the people who live in that apartment must have realized that you are pregnant. For that we have to think about how to hide it from the people around. Moreover, I have to be with Kak Ali every day." Jenny breathed a heavy sigh. The woman had no idea. Thought's dead-end. Ask Rico for help is also free. That guy would just scold her.

Cring cring cring.

"Your phone reads, Jen, " said Nirma.

"My head feels like it's about to break, Nir! I can't think straight now." Jenny complains when she imagines a lot of problems that she has to go through just to achieve her goals. That's getting a baby.

"This is my husband calling. Why'd he call me at this hour?" ask Jenny.

"Where do I know? Just pick it up, Jen. Who knows it's important." Nirma rolled her eyes irritated. Because Jenny did not immediately answer the phone from her husband.

"Hello?" Jenny finally answered Ali's phone call. Nirma this time was silent and chose to enjoy her lunch.

"What's wrong? Why should I pack your clothes?" Jenny was surprised not to play as she listened to the news from Ali.

Just a loud voice from Jenny made Nirma's attention diverted. The pregnant woman was now staring at Jenny full of question marks.

"So Kak Ali has a job out of town? Oho! All righty! I'll take care of the things that Kak Ali wants to bring after coming home later. I'm with Nirma for lunch now!" Jenny's expression was happy. Hearing that Ali has a job out of town.

The wide smile on Jenny's lips made Nirma full of confusion. Because before Jenny was worried and it was as if the world was almost over. Now suddenly Jenny became happy because of a news from the husband.

"All right! I love you too." Jenny ended her phone call.

"Why do you look happy? You seem very upset and sad before. Why suddenly smile so widely?" Nirma immediately threw a question at Jenny. He was very curious because the mimic changes of Jenny's face were very clearly drawn on her face.

"So I was very scared when Kak Ali was next to me continuously. I was afraid because I could get pregnant this lie became discovered by him. Gosh, I was really made crazy just for thinking about it, Nirma. But it seems like God loves me very much. Just look at it now. Suddenly Kak Ali told me that he was going out of town because of his work that suddenly got into trouble. That means I can survive her suspicions" Jenny said.

The understanding Nirma seemed to nod his head repeatedly. The woman begins to realize that Jenny is again surviving her great fear. Suddenly Nirma felt uncomfortable.

"Why is Jenny always so lucky? He almost gets caught if they are both in the same place every day. Because as a pregnant woman must have her stomach enlarged. And Jenny won't be able to dodge it. It's like it's not fair to me, "inner Nirma in heart.

...***...

"Sister Ali, I've packed your clothes. How long will Ali be gone?" Jenny welcomed Ali with pleasure. He also kissed Ali on the lips.

"Hmm? The big project suddenly got into trouble. Because papa was afraid that the company would suffer a big loss, so I had to go out of town. I can't go home every day. That would be exhausting." Ali dropped her ass on the long sofa. He rubbed his face violently. "The problem is the restaurant I've handed over to someone else. You don't have to think about it. Stay calm in this house. Take care of our son!"

"If Kak Ali goes home it will be very tiring. Kak Ali should have stayed there. Ali take it easy. I'll be fine when I'm home. My best friend comes to visit me often. So, Brother Ali don't worry!" bright Jenny.

Ali smiled. He poked his beloved wife's chin. "really. I won't worry. I've already called my mom and dad if you're going to stay there while I'm out of town. I'm sure my mom and dad would be happy because you've all loved each other."

"What's? Stay at papa's and mama's house?"
