The Honorary Owner

Ruby immediately pulled and hid her hand under the table. He looks panicked, afraid if others find out that he has tried to kill himself.

While Abriz was very curious about what made Ruby do it. But he had to ask her, knowing that it wasn't an easy question for Ruby to answer.

Tasya immediately finished the rest of the drink, "You still want to be here?" Tasya asked as she took her shopping bag.

"Yes, boys back at this hour? Figured deworming, yes." Rangga

"Okay, I'll go back, yeah." Pamit Tasya's.

"Okay, be careful."

"I'm saying it first, Mas. Assalamu'alaikum." Pamit Ruby, she didn't dare look at Abriz.

"Wa'alaikumsalam." Sahut Abriz and Rangga.

Ruby with Tasya left the Cafe, only to walk back to the Hotel where they stayed. Pedestrians still crowded the sidewalk, art workers who are still very energized show their talents to entertain anyone who wants to enjoy, The sound of bells from the delman and the beat of horseshoes on the streets became the typical strains of the city of Jogja.

"Abriz kanya seriously likes lo, By." Tashia opened the conversation.

"I can't ban people's feelings, ma'am. Let him be with his feelings and me with mine." Answer Ruby.

Tasya was silent for a moment, "Why did you get married to Hiko's sister, By? Isn't your fiancee the same as Kyai's son?" Although Doubtful, Tasya finally asked the question that he and Irma had kept.

"The name is Iqbal, Ma'am. Muhammad Iqbal Marzuki, the man whom Allah destined me to love without my possession." Ruby looked at Tasya, a smile blooming on her lips. A smile that expresses sadness.

"And, Brother Hiko?"

"He ...." Ruby was silent for a moment, looking for the right word for Hiko, "My husband ..." Answer doubtful.

Ruby looked back at the street, her mind reminded of a tall, clean-skinned man with a beautiful face but behaving no better than animals. He breathed deeply. Even though he is still my husband, his heart.

***********

That morning, the atmosphere of one of the University of Arts domes in Yogyakarta was very crowded, the opening of exhibitions and festivals of provincial-level animated films had been carried out. Attended by several officials and the university rector went around to each stand. Ruby and her friends are always coming in the back. They also served as judges, occasionally they dug up information when viewing a unique work.

Lunch time stopped their busy lives. Not including Ruby. After one of the hosts told that Ruby is a comic from The King, making many students who want to fight for a selfie with her.

Ruby felt uncomfortable getting too close to the student who took the photo too close to her. Not only once did Ruby warn anyone, but still there were still many who could not keep their distance from her. Tasya who saw was also upset, his ban on Ruby fans was not at all indicated.

Until someone pulls Ruby's hand and embraces Ruby in her arms. Ruby's reflexes pulled her body away. He raised his head, seeing who dared to do such insolence to him.

"Mas Hiko!" He was surprised by the presence of the man in front of him.

A female student's voice came over to Hiko, shouting her name. Hiko simply smiled back at the greetings of her fans.

"Sir, Selfie dooonk..." Shouted some people.

"Sorry, Yes. Please respect my privacy here. I'm here because of my wife, and I'm here as her husband. Please appreciate my wife's feelings, yeah." Pinta Hiko is as sweet as possible.

Disappointment hits the Hiko fans, slowly they disband and leave Hiko. Tasya, Abriz and Rangga also approached Hiko and Ruby.

"Mas, why are you suddenly here?" Ask Ruby

Hiko shrugged both of her shoulders, "Gue take her away first, Yes. I promise I'll be back in time." Hiko pulls Ruby out of the dome crowd.

Ruby, according to him, noticed the man in black hat who was breaking up the crowd, paving the way for Ruby. Ruby's hand was tightly pulled right behind her, making sure Ruby didn't tangle with anyone else.

"Temenin I have lunch." Pinta Hiko, ah no, it's a tinge of compulsion.

Ruby according to.

Hiko takes Ruby out of campus wearing her rental motorbike. Heading to one of the recommended restaurants that he had previously searched through a search site on his mobile phone. A lesehan restaurant with gazebo-gazebo that has a typical Javanese feel becomes Hiko's choice.

"I can't take long, Mom." Ruby said as she sat cross-legged on a thin foam pillow.

Hiko quietly opened the food menu in front of him and mentioned some of the names of the food he wanted to eat to a waiter who was standing waiting for him.

"Lo what?" Ask Ruby.

"Same on, Ma'am. Just drink water, Mommy." Ruby said to the waiter.

"Okay, please wait." Said the waiter then leaving the gazebo Hiko and Ruby.

"Why is it suddenly here, anyway?"

Hiko's brain is thinking hard about why she's here? He himself did not know if suddenly Genta last night sent him a travel ticket to Jogja this morning, he got three days to calm down. Without thinking, he immediately left. The information from Ruby's friends that Genta was looking for made it easy for Hiko to find Ruby.

"Maos ..." Ruby is still waiting for an answer.

"Gue vacation." Answer Hiko.

"on your own? or with Nara and Mas Genta?" Ask Ruby again.

"On your own, is bawel really?" Hiko Protests.

Ruby looked at Hiko suspiciously, "Mas follow me here, huh?"

Ruby's question took Hiko by surprise. He can't lie to himself if that's why he's here because of Ruby.

"I also love it, lo! I suddenly gave me a ticket to Jogja. Yes, you have already nyari lo, let someone be told." Hiko gave an excuse.

Ruby tried to believe it.

Hiko and Ruby's gazebo was silent for a moment, making their ears more sensitive to the sound of friction leaves in the wind, the sound of birds chirping and even the joking sounds of people from the gazebo around Ruby and Hiko.

"I go to prayer first, mas." Ruby stood up and left Hiko.

Hiko straightened her legs, kicking the wind in annoyance under the table. "Wrn*ng! What the hell am I, talking here and there is no contents!" Aspersion.

Hiko really felt dead in front of Ruby, how could she behave like that in front of women. Look stupid! a word that fits him. Hiko regulated her emotions, occasionally hitting her own head to wake her mind to focus.

Not too long after Ruby left Hiko, she returned and all the food was available on the table.

"I'm sorry, Mas, wait a long time" Ruby said as she sat down.

Hiko just nodded.

With the prefix of a do'a, Ruby begins to devour her food.Not much talk between Hiko and Ruby, only occasionally Hiko asks Ruby's schedule after this.

"Ntar malem, I'm here." Hiko showed her phone screen to Ruby, a hill to see the beautiful lights of Yogyakarta.

"Ngapain, Mom? I have to go back to Jakarta tomorrow morning." Reject Ruby.

"Temenin, or do I live in the middle of the street?" Threat Hiko.

Ruby snorted annoyed, he could not do anything because he did not bring a bag, wallet and even his cellphone. Hiko smiled victoriously seeing Ruby couldn't resist.

They also continued lunch with chats, oh no, small debates that made Ruby become cornered and look upset.

After lunch, Hiko escorted Ruby back to the university dome where Ruby carried out her duties.

"Ntar at seven I wait in the hotel lobby! Don't be late!" Said Hiko.

Ruby is busy removing the hook on her helmet, Hiko pulls Ruby's waist up to her.

"Mas!" Ruby Protest.

Hiko ignored him, helping Ruby remove the helmet-binding hook. "This can't be." Murmured Hiko, He removed the helmet from Ruby's head and placed it on the rearview of his motorbike.

"Thank you." Ruby Saying.

Ruby's face was red, she was nervous and embarrassed by Hiko's treatment just now.

"Acasino'aikum ..." He then ran away from Hiko.

Hiko smiled at Ruby who was embarrassed and misbehaved. Before many people noticed him, he soon left the campus.

*********

Ruby was already sitting waiting for Hiko in the waiting room of the hotel where she stayed. He wears a gray robe that is combined with outer floral motifs and black pasmina that covers the head until dangling close the chest. His beloved white sneakers have repeatedly been knocked on the floor just to kill time.

"Old!" A handsome man wearing a white T-shirt clad in a black bomber jacket and black jeans was seen coming out from behind the elevator door.

White sneakers belonging to one of the famous brands tread the hotel tiles, a little sounding squeak from the friction of the shoe pad with the floor when he ran a small approach to Ruby.

Ruby stood up and was ready to express her frustration to Hiko. But the attention of those around him made him undo his intention of cursing at the man.

"Sorry, sorry." Said Hiko who had seen Ruby's annoyed face. She grabs Ruby's shoulder and takes her out of the lobby.

"Don't hold it, Mom." Ruby brushed Hiko's hand away from her shoulder.

pib pib!

A sedan car alarm went off just as Hiko pressed a button she was holding.

"Whose car, Mas? Last afternoon you brought a motorbike, now take a car." Ask Ruby astonishment.

"Dicated people." Answer origin.

Hiko and Ruby immediately got into the car. Not to forget Hiko uses an application to guide his journey to get to his destination without having to stray here and there.

More than half an hour drive by Hiko and Ruby until finally they stopped in a parking lot in the hills.

"Darkl." Ruby rubbed her arm when she got out of the car, she did not know if she was going to go to a cold place like this.

"Come on!" Hiko snapped her finger.

They approached the counter to order drinks and snacks that would accompany them while enjoying the view. After getting the table number, they headed to a semi-permanent open building that presented a view of the city lights at the bottom, and a sprinkling of stars in the sky.

Hiko chose a table that was fused with a guardrail. Rows of small yellow lights adorn around them, the cafe light is made not too bright so that visitors can enjoy the starlight well.

Ruby was sitting right next to Hiko. A place that is cooler than the parking lot, but he did not want to invite to move because this place presents a very beautiful view.

"Where do you know this place?" Ask Ruby.

"Instagram." Hiko answered, he pulled out the camera and took a photo around him without leaving his seat.

"Crazy! Very good, though!" Said Hiko when she saw the results of her shots.

Ruby took a peek at Hiko's camera screen, "Dih ... Kirain photos what. I know girls too!" Ruby Cibir.

"Lo jealous? Yes, I have a photo!" Hiko took aim at Ruby's face who was astonished at her words.

"Don't take my picture without my permission." Ruby tries to snatch Hiko's camera from Hiko's hand.

"Huh, expensive camera here." Hika keeps her camera away from Ruby.

"here! I'm not really sure my picture is there!"

Ruby still pulled Hiko's hand until her face almost stuck to Hiko's chest. To make the man's heart beat faster and his mind has wandered everywhere.

Hiko pulled Ruby's body and hugged her, "Silence! There's a caterpillar on your shoulder!"

"Well!! Don't want to be unwilling!" Ruby screamed amusedly and almost cried, she increasingly tightly hugged Hiko with fear. "Dispose of the mas!" Her request.

Hiko smiled cunningly, "Gue is also amused equally tenacious! Far away there!" Hiko pushes Ruby's body.

"Wouldn't! Discard, Mas! What kind of husband are you, his wife's afraid she won't help."

Hiko laughed without a sound, "So if again like this you consider me your husband?" Her speech.

"Udah mas, please throw away. I'm really amused!" Ruby was still hysterical and made some people notice them.

"Gue dumpin, but you treat me as your husband!"

"Yes! Aye! Scribbles!"

Hiko laughed victoriously, he put his camera on the table and took a tissue to pick up the caterpillar that was not actually on Ruby's shoulder and then threw the tissue behind the fence.

"Udah!" Said Hiko.

Ruby pulled away from Hiko's body and shuddered amusedly looking at her shoulder. Hiko was still smiling cunningly, she held onto both of Ruby's cheeks that were blushing red and wiped away the tears that were in the corner of Ruby's eyes.

Seeing Hiko's treatment made Ruby blush embarrassed, she did not dare to look at Hiko.

"Lo inget your approval just now, right?" ask Hiko.

"What's what?" Ruby asked back.

"Lo agrees to treat me as your husband."

"Huh!? I said I agreed?"

Hiko nodded with a smile. He propped up his cheeks with his palms, staring at Ruby triumphantly.

"No, I don't want to! I'm talking under pressure!" Reject Ruby

Hiko shook her head. "The deal's already happened, baby." Hiko said as she gently pinched Ruby's cheek in a fit of anxiety.

Ruby sculpted, he still could not accept Hiko's decision.

"Mas knows our initial agreement, right? I can't do that."

"Sex you mean?"

"Damn! His words are!"

Hiko laughed out loud, "Relax .... I have no interest in you! Confess all your duties as a wife, except that."

Ruby just looked at Hiko who looked very happy already being able to suppress her. Yes, Ruby should have done her duty. After all, Hiko didn't ask for what Ruby couldn't give her.
