Hiko repeatedly looked at Ruby who was sitting next to him, his hands focused on holding the steering wheel, his legs occasionally pressing the gas pedal when the vehicle in front of him began to slow down.


"Can you just look ahead, can't you?" Ruby Protest.


"People who are rich still have interest, huh?"


Ruby threw away her face, she stared out her left window.


"Who was that guy? I've never seen rich?" Ask Hiko.


"Chairman of my team." Ruby replied, her eyes still staring out the window.


"Ooh, you'll see him a lot." Hiko.


There was no answer from Ruby, the atmosphere of the car became quiet.


"Ntar my mallem sleeps at Nara's house, if I ask..."


"No!" Ruby cut off Hiko's sentence, now she looked at the man beside her hinting that he wouldn't lie.


Hiko looked at Ruby annoyed, "Lo has no right to deny me! You didn't forget our real status, did you?"


"Very remember! But I don't want to lie, let alone cover up your unworthy deeds."


"Lo doesn't realize how many times have I lied to close my relationship with Nara? So holy!"


"Sounds you misunderstood, ma'am? I don't do that to support your relationship. But I did that to protect Nara, save Nara's good name so that your parents can accept her!" Ruby said emotion.


"Bodo is a great excuse, lo! I'll stay there!"


"No!"


"Lo doesn't know what s*nge feels like! I haven't touched him in three days! Do you want to take care of me?"


"Take a good mouth!" ruby Sentak.


"Either, you follow my rules!"


Ruby snorted in annoyance, staring at the vehicle in front of her who was waiting for the green traffic sign to light up.


"I just want my friend to get his happiness. From a small Nara is not too happy, the family that should be the most comfortable place for her instead becomes the place that makes her suffer. Please don't treat him like that. If you love her, treat her like a good woman. Marry her the right way, don't make it a place to vent napsu mas alone."


Hiko looked at Ruby, her mind was eager to curse at Ruby but her mouth was locked. Perhaps in her deepest heart, she confirmed Ruby's statement.


trrrt trrrt.


Long tremors were felt inside the backpack that was above his lap. "Nara?" His speech was slow but enough to make Hiko turn her head.


"Hallo, Ra?"


"You're home from work, By?"


"Yes, Ra! Why?"


"I'm legally divorced from Heru..."


No more words came out of Nara's mouth, Ruby only heard the sound of sobs.


"Have you met Mom and Dad?" Ruby guess.


"They just got home..."


The sound of Nara's cry is more broken to make Ruby and Hiko look at each other.


"I'm the same as Hiko, Ra. You wait for us, yeah. Don't say anything." said Ruby then disconnected her phone.


"Lo take my car, I'll go to Nara's house with me" said Hiko.


"I use as early as I can't, how to drive a car! I want to see Nara too!"


Hiko honks his car when the green light is on, hoping the vehicle in front of him will run immediately.


"Don't be selfish, my friend. Everyone has their own interests. We're not the only ones in a hurry." Ruby warns of Hiko's behavior.


"Whisper!" Jerky Hiko.


Apart from the density of red lights, Hiko hastened the speed of his vehicle. Ruby just closed her eyes, her mouth did not stop praying so that she could arrive safely at Nara's house and not harm others.


Long journey that drives Ruby's adrenaline, finally he arrived in front of Nara's house. Hiko and Ruby rush into Nara's house.


Nothing broke there. Everything's fine.


"By!"


"Nara!"


Hiko and Ruby take turns calling Nara. They found Nara sitting curled up on the sofa in the middle room. Hiko and Ruby immediately approached him.


"Astaqfirullah, Nara!" Ruby was surprised to see the bloody tip of Nara's lips.


Nara shook her head and hugged Hiko tightly, she broke her tears in Hiko's arms. Hiko repeatedly kissed Nara's head and calmed her down.


There was a sad feeling in Ruby's heart. She was not jealous to see her husband hugging another woman, but she was jealous because her best friend had now found a place to complain, so her presence was not too meaningful for her.


Ruby rubbed Nara's back for a moment, then went to Nara's room. He was looking for some medicine that he had given Nara before. Finally he found the medicine on the dressing table.


Ruby took her back to the living room and gave it to Hiko, "Mas treat Nara's wounds, I'll make food for her."


Hiko accepted it and nodded.


Ruby goes to Nara's kitchen, opens the refrigerator with a door next to the dining table to find what ingredients she can cook there.


Ruby brought out the ingredients she could cook there. While preparing the ingredients, Ruby occasionally sees Hiko treating Nara. He was happy, Hiko was really considerate with Nara. He is sure, if Hiko becomes Nara's husband, he will make Nara happy.


Exactly adzan magrib, finally two dishes have been served on the dining table that only contains four chairs.


"Eat first, Ra." Ruby said, she prepared dishes for Nara and Hiko.


"Let's eat." take Hiko.


Nara stood up from the sofa and sat down at the dinner table. Ruby got Nara some rice, not much because she knew how much Nara ate.


"Thank you, By." Nara received a plate of rice that was complete with the side dish.


Ruby just smiles, she grabs Hiko's plate and gets Hiko some rice. "How is it enough, ma'am?" Ask Ruby.


"Yes." Yeah." Answer Hiko awkwardly.


Hiko was quite surprised by Ruby's treatment just now. So gentle and uncharacteristic that always looked at him like trash.


Ruby placed the dishes that already contained rice and side dishes right in front of Hiko.


"Thanks." -." Hiko.


"You don't eat, By?" Ask Nara.


"You eat first, Ra. I have to pray first." Ruby replied, "The mosque is far away, Ra?"


"I'm anter, yeah." Nara.


Ruby shook her head, "No need. You're here, I can be alone. It's not dark yet."


"It's two blocks from here, By. Near the complex park."


"Okay, I'll go first." Ruby leaves Hiko and Nara.


Ruby came out of the house when the street lights were still new and the sky still presented the charm of her twilight. Ruby began to step foot into the housing paving. He steadied and convinced himself that he could definitely fight his fear.


Residential roads are still crowded, some vehicles are still passing by to take the owner back to his house. Step by step Ruby passed quickly to get to the mosque immediately.


Arriving at the block that Nara was referring to, Ruby began to slow down her footsteps as she encountered several people who were also walking towards the mosque.


Ruby sampat right when the iqomat was heard, he hurriedly headed to the ablution place to purify himself and rushed into the mosque to perform magrib prayers.


After the prayer magrib did not make Ruby immediately move away, her hands still hugged the face and her gaze was fixed out the window. It's dark, the mind.


Ruby stood up, returning the face that he had folded into a closet that specifically stores the face and then moved out. His eyes were peeking at the end of the road that was not so crowded. Now he hesitated to step up his legs and chose to sit on the top step.


"Don't you sit down?"


Ruby quickly turned her head to the side, "Mas Hiko?" He did not expect Hiko was sitting far away from him.


"Come back!" Hiko stood up, went down a few steps and put on a flip-flop.


Ruby's still confused, why is she here? Prayer?


His eyes did not stop looking at the back of the man who kept walking away from him. Before the man was really far away, Ruby immediately stood up and caught up with Hiko. He did not want to walk alone, at least b*jing*n it can accompany him.
