"Naaina!"
"Naaina!"
The call that occurs simultaneously is carried out by two men of different professions. The manager stood at the doorstep of the shop, while the mosque's marbot smiled at him across the street.
Naina was glued to the side of the road, just as her feet were about to cross to meet her uncle. However, the call of the two people made him flinch. Don't know who to go in whose direction?
"What's wrong?" tanyanya stood between the two legs.
His gaze led to a headland tree growing by the roadside. There were a lot of flowers falling under her, Naina sighed. Suddenly, his heart was no longer normal.
Alfin relented, he fluttered by the side of the road as the manager stepped closer to Naina. Looking at Alfin who was silent on the spot, Naina lowered her head. Without competing, he has won Naina's heart.
The hijab-wearing girl turned around, her eyes blankly pointing at the superior.
"Why, Sir?" asked Naina while suppressing the feeling of laziness and boredom that lodged in her heart. Astaghfirullah al-'adhiim!
The man glanced at Alfin who was paying attention to them, in a vengeful heart the more turbulent looking at the state of the young man who was fine. He lowered his gaze, looking at the face full of charm in front of him.
"Mmm... Later tonight you have no show?" ask the manager to talk.
"There, Sir. Why?" Naina asked back, even though she was just lazy to serve her boss.
"Well, I'm late. Is that the same guy?" his question again glanced cynically at Alfin.
"Oh, no, but same aunt at home. I need to be with Aunty" replied Naina.
The man sighed, a little disappointed that Naina still rejected him. However, he was a little relieved, Naina did not go with her rival.
"Yes, that's what I am first, sir. I want to go to where my uncle works" Naina said as she turned across the street.
Since Alfin was standing across the street, Anton thought Naina would come to him. Plus Alfin who smiled, while accompanying Naina's steps.
"Bad! Apparently he tricked me. Watch out for you, Naina. You must be feeling comfortable" the manager growled as he left the front of the store and went back inside.
Naina herself did not know if she was noticed. His steps were in tandem with Alfin's who was linking hands behind the body.
"You have a show tonight?" alfin asked in between their steps.
"Nothing, anyway. Why why?" Naina raised her face, looking at Alfin who was smiling hearing her answer.
"I'd like to take you to see my parents. Are you ready? Sis Dijah was also there," said Alfin secretly stealing glances at the girl beside him.
both of them looked down at the end of the shoes each foot was wearing. Funny, walking casually while talking without caring about the eyes of people. They did nothing, even though Alfin's side still took some distance from him.
"God willing, but I'm afraid they can't accept me like a colonized brother. Keep doing that, what do you want to do?" said Naina asked about the possibility that could happen at the meeting later.
"There's nothing I can do, just wait until they understand. I probably won't give up on convincing them. Well, hopefully not obstacles that we can not face. As long as it can still find a solution, then we will look for it together," said Alfin can not promise anything.
"Are you going to make a decision? It's nothing, I just want to be ready. So that later the pain is not deep," said Naina with a bitter smile.
He has prepared his heart to accept any harsh reality. It is impossible for a child to defy his parents only to a woman who is considered contemptible by most people. That's why Naina doesn't want to be too hopeful.
"We'll see what happens. Because words cannot be proved, but actions are a real form of what is not spoken orally" Alfin said.
Whose destiny knows? These are the secrets of God that cannot be changed by human thought. Everything that happens is a test that must be faced by each head.
The two stopped not far from Asep's workplace, waiting for the middle-aged man to finish changing clothes.
"I'll pick you up at eight, yeah. Ba'da pray isya let calm down," said Alfin decided. The sooner you meet the better, and he will feel calm after meeting the two.
Naina nodded, this time unable to stand up after meeting Khadijah. The two sat on a roadside bench, staring at the vehicles passing by incessantly.
"Is Brother Dijah still in your house?" ask Naina. There was a desire to meet again with the woman who was pregnant with her third child.
"still. There are also children at home, you can get to know them. They are both cool to play with, you must be happy to get to know them," replied Alfin telling about his two nephews who are so good at playing.
"Aamiin's."
The two went back to silence, silent and not talking. The wind also blew the passing vehicle blowing fine dust hit their faces. However, the couple, still sitting there enjoying togetherness.
"Nai, are you here?" asep asked as soon as the project area saw Naina sitting by the side of the road.
The two men stood up, Alfin immediately said goodbye to Asep to return to the mosque. With her uncle, Naina returns home. In the shop window, the manager peeked. He heaved a sigh of relief because it was not Alfin who drove Naina.
Anton smiled to himself, sighing in relief after cursing at Naina. She thinks Naina rejected her because of a promise with Alfin, in fact she went with another man whom Anton suspects is Naina's uncle. He turned around leaving the window, returning to his room with a slightly relieved feeling.
"Uncle, Alfin's taking me to his parents' house tonight. He said they wanted to see me," said Naina deliberately told her uncle about Alfin's invitation later tonight.
"Uncle, mah, it's up to you. The important thing is that you can take good care of yourself. Don't let your guard down" Asep said wisely.
Naina smiled, she continued to reassure the heart that everything would be fine.

Night came so fast, Naina stood in front of a large mirror that reflected the image of herself intact. After an inner struggle, Naina decided to wear the robe that Khadijah bought.
He smiled, wearing a dresser was not bad. The scarf like Khadijah wore yesterday is now attached to Naina's body.
"Bismilbornrahmanirrahim!"
