Arshad kept staring at Aisyah who was busy tidying up the mattress. Sometimes he felt so close and like he knew Aisyah, only he doubted and did not know what was really with his heart.
"Mas sure you want a job today?"
Arshad averted his eyes and cleared his throat.
"Many things to do in the office. Just a little fever will not damage the work. I am not a weak guy. I'm going first. Assalamualaikum."
"But if you are cold easily fever. Why else."
Arshad turned around and looked at Aisha's astonishment. He approached and looked at Aisyah with question marks.
"Where are you from?"
"meaning?"
"Where do you know I can't stand the cold?"
"A. I know da.from ummi. Ummi once said that. Why mother?"
Arshad shook his head.
"I work first."
Aisyah nodded.
"Assalamualaik."
"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Oh yeah, I happened to be in college till noon today. Can I bring you lunch, won't I?"
"I told you not to let our wedding news spread! Still reminding?"
"I'll make sure no one gets suspicious, kok. Would you like me to bring lunch? You should eat healthy food. The condition is still unstable."
"As far as you. I'm leaving first. ASSALAMUALAIKUM for the third time."
Aisha smiled, "Wa'alaikumussalam."
"Ummi, have you told Aisyah and Arshad that there's a home study tonight?"ask abi.
"Astaghfirullah ummi forgot.bi. Let Ummi tell Arshad to Aisyah right now." said Ummi by directly snatching his phone. He sought Arshad's contact and immediately contacted Arshad who was focusing on driving.
"Hallo assalamualaikum, Ar."ucap Ummi.
"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. What's the matter,mi?"
"Ummi forgot to tell you that tonight there is a study at home. Can you come, son?"
"Study in what order, mi?"
"Seekly weekly studies."
"Well, God willing Arshad is coming."
"Yes, assalamualaikum."
"Wa'alaikumussalam, ummi."
After the connection was cut, Arshad immediately sought Aisyah's contact to inform Aisyah of the ummi intent.
{*The number you are going to is busy*}
Arshad's forehead was wrinkled because of Aisyah's busy number.
"busy? Telphonan who is he? What's that guy?"ask Arshad.
Arshad again tried to contact Aisyah and remained busy. He tried many times and kept busy. Irritated, Arshad throws his cell phone into his side chair.
"Morning is busy." said Arshad.
Though the person who is addressed is now being telphonan with umminya talking about the same thing.
"Yes, insyaallah Aisyah came ummi. Aisyah is also very kangen same ummi. Means now ummi's cooking, dong?"
"No, just a moment of cooking because ummi just returned from the market with abi. Eh good thing it's the same thing abi to tell you Arshad."
"Dear help ya, ummi."
"Your college?"
"Oh yes. Yes already gini aja, come home from campus later, Aisyah directly to the house ummi aja, how?"
"Agreed."
"Yes, assalamualaikum ummi."
"Wa'alaikumussalam."
After the connection was cut off, Aisyah went straight to her class. But just arrived at the front door of the class, his cellphone again rang to make himself stop again.
"Assynhdreams,mas. What's up?"ask Aisyah.
Arshad. Finally, after several more attempts, he was able to talk to Aisyah.
"Busy why?"ask Arshad directly to *the**points**.
Aisyah's frowns, "Busy? What is busy? Who's busy?"
"Your HP. From earlier in telphonin even busy. I want important news with you."
"Ohh I just called the same ummi, ummi tidakin I want a lecture later tonight."
Arshad held back his smile,"Oh, same ummi? That's it, assalamualaikum."
Tut tut tut's...
"Was... Wa'alaikumussalam."
"The more strange the day the husband." muttered Aisyah with a smile.
°°°°°
In the afternoon, Aisyah went home to her in-laws in a hurry. He remembered that he would also prepare lunch for Arshad. It's office lunch soon.
"Assalamualaikum, ummi." said Aisyah directly into the house and walked quickly to the kitchen. He saw ummi making some cooking.
"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. You have come."
Aisyah just nodded and paced back and forth in the kitchen because she did not know what to cook for Arshad's lunch.
"What's wrong with you, son? Ribet looks at it very ummi."
"Ummi mountain. Don't know what to cook for Arshad's lunch."
Ummi smiles. It feels good to see her son and daughter-in-law have a good relationship.
"Masakin' it's easier, son. Don't fuck around."
"What about pa-pa, mi?"
"Yes pa-pa, Arshad is not choosy when it comes to food."
Aisyah nodded her head in understanding and started cooking quickly.
A little while later, Aisyah had finished making lunch for Arshad.
"Udah finished, Aisyah left first yes, ummi. Later Aisyah back again help ummi. Assalamualaikum." said Aisyah in a hurry.
"Wa'alaikumussalam, be careful on the road!"
Aisyah took a taxi to Arshad's office which fortunately was not so far from the ummi house.
After arriving, Aisyah went straight into the office and headed for the receptionist.
"Good day, can anyone help?"asked the receptionist kindly but the gaze was fixed on the way Aisyah dressed.
"I want to meet with the company's leadership."
"Sorry, have you made an appointment?"
"It."
"Wait a minute, baby."
The receptionist contacted Arshad who was now looking at the clock while holding his hungry stomach.
"Good day, sir. There's a woman who wants to meet my father."
"His name?"asked Arshad enthusiastically.
"Whose name,mbak?"ask her to Aisyah.
"Aisha." answered Aisha who could be heard by Arshad.
"name\_"
"I'm going there now!"said Arshad cutting off his receptionist speech.
It did not take long, Arshad had arrived in the lobby to approach Aisyah who was still in front of the reception desk.
Arshad cleared his throat,"Have you arrived?"
Aisha smiled sweetly, "Sorry to be late."
Arshad stared intently at Aisha. Didn't know that Arshad had been holding back his hunger ever since.
"Sorry sir, who's father, is he?"ask the receptionist.
Aisyah and Arshad looked at each other.
Aisyah recalled Arshad's remarks this morning saying that no one else should know about her marriage to Arshad.
With a sweet smile she looked at the receptionist.
"I. More precisely a distant brother." said Aisyah with confidence.
Arshad immediately looked at Aisyah with a look that he could hardly understand. Should he be happy? Or angry? But if you are angry, what is the reason? Isn't this what he wanted?
"Sister?"unconsciously, Arshad asked.
Aisyah looked back at Arshad with her sweet smile, "Yes, sister."
Arshad remained silent and chose to go from there and return to his room. Aisyah and the receptionist were astonished by Arshad's behavior.
"If so I follow my sister first yes, take. Excuse me!"pamit Aisyah who immediately followed Arshad to his room.
