At night, Naziah had just stepped into his room. The ringing sound of the phone inside his little backpack stopped his steps.
See the name on the screen of the phone. At once Naziah turned around and hinted to his friends to be quiet for a moment.
"Sstt.." said Naziah with the index finger of his hand placed in front of his lips.
His three best friends were also watching a movie. Directly silent a thousand languages and Tita who is holding a television remote. Spontaneously pressed the off button and turned off his television.
"Hello, assalamu'alaikum!" he said softly talking to the person behind his phone, then.
"......"
"I'm... still in Mess. Why?" answer and ask Naziah back.
"....."
Naziah seemed to hold back his laughter. "You already know, why do you have to ask again...?!" say later.
"....."
"I just got here and wanted to take a shower" Naziah said.
"....."
"Yes, Wa'alaikum salam." replied Naziah. And then close the call.
After the phone call was cut off. Naziah continued his footsteps to his room. Without caring for his three companions who were looking at him questioningly.
"Zeek... You're a bitch!!!" tita shouted while cursing annoyed. "Who called earlier? I seem to be strangling him. Because of him, I missed a very tense scene in this film." he continued nagging.
"He's Rendi. Please giggle, if he comes later?! I want to take a shower first." replied Naziah relaxed even very relaxed.
Hearing Naziah's relaxed reply allowed her to strangle Rendi. Tita seemed to want to hit her best friend's head hard, too, because of the anxiety with her behavior.
"Basic sableng!!!" talk about Tita again. But now in a slow tone. And refocused on watching because Uelfi has revived his television.
Not long after, the sound of knocking on the door and greeting someone from outside was heard. And disperse the seriousness of Tita, Uelfi and Anto who are watching action movies.
"Assalamu'alaikum." said someone from the front door.
Soon Anto moved from his seat. To meet the guests who came. All he knew, that guest was Rendi.
"Wa'alaikum salam. Please come in Bro-bro!" say and send Anto to Rendi who turned out to come with his personal assistant, Aldi.
"Come sit down!" say Anto again.
When stepping in, Rendi and Aldi and Anto shake their hands first. Then take a seat in the living room.
"Oh yeah, you want to meet Ziah, right? In a moment, I'll call him first." Anto asked Rendi and answered himself.
Finished saying that, Anto immediately got up from his seat. He went to call Naziah who was still in his room.
tok tok tok tok
"Ziah, have you finished your bath? If so, get out! Rendi is waiting for you in the living room." said Anto from behind the door of Naziah's room.
"Yes, okay. I'll accompany him. Besides, he brought Aldi too. Hurry up, not too long! Because it's about to go in the middle of the night. And you know that?" answer Anto.
And at the same time remind Naziah of their rules which of course still apply today.
"Yes yes, I remember. Go!!!" reply lazy Naziah and a little expel Anto to immediately leave the door of his room.
Because he still wanted to do something again after taking a shower. If Anto was still there and kept talking. So he could not do something about it, the Isha prayer.
Before Anto goes back to see Rendi and Aldi. He meets Tita and Ulli first in the television room.
"Oh'! Please make me drink dong?! For 3 people yes." Anto told Ulli. And Ulfi only answered him with a nod of his head. Without taking his eyes off the television screen in front of him.
He was just about to step away. But Anto again faced his two friends who were still busy watching the television.
"Oh yes 'Ta! That's Rendi already coming. Do you still want to strangle him? If you still want to, do it now. I want to see how brave you are to do it. Come on!!!" said Anto sneered at Tita, then laughed loosely as he walked away. "Haha...."
Anto purposely said that for his pleasure to tease Tita. Because he knew, the words that contained the threat from his best friend earlier. Not really going to do. Because, the threat was only an expression of his frustration over Naziah's behavior that disturbed his pleasure earlier.
Meanwhile, Tita, heard the sneer from her nosy friend. He was only able to bite his lips by staring cynically at the nosy Anto. Squeezing the sofa pillow in his hand.
And after ten minutes have passed. Naziah came out of his room wearing his clothes. Do not forget the instant hijab that is always attached to his head.
"Assalamu'alaikum, everyone!" naziah said as he entered the living room.
"Wa'alaikum hail, Zi'." replied Anto and Aldi together.
While Rendi, just looked at him with a difficult to interpret gaze. Then, in the next second. He stood up and approached Naziah.
"Can we talk alone?! But not here. We have to get out" said Rendi without waiting for an answer from Naziah. He put his hand in Naziah's hand. And take her away from there.
Naziah knitted his brows in confusion. But look resigned only his hand slightly pulled by Rendi. Who doesn't know where to take him.
While following Rendi's footsteps, he looked at Aldi. Which is interpreted by Aldi with "Where am I going down?". So Aldi answered him by sniffing his shoulder which means he does not know.
Knowing Aldi's answer like that. Naziah became more confused and more resigned.
"We go first, huh...?!" naziah said goodbye.
"Yes, be careful on the road!!!" anto and Aldi answered back together.
Rendi opens the car door for Naziah and tells him to come in. "Let's go in!". Naziah complied. After Naziah entered, Rendi again closed the door. Then, he came in and sat in the seat behind the wheel.
Before starting the engine of the car. Not to forget, Rendi put a seatbelt for Naziah and also for himself. After that, Rendi also drove her car at medium speed to where she wanted.
Almost all the way. Naziah or Rendi no one opened their voices. Only Naziah continued to look at the face of Rendi who was seriously driving her car.
When Rendi directs her car into the city park area. Naziah again frowned. "What did he bring me here for? Is he mad at me?" naziah was full of questions.
Rendi took her car in the park parking lot and parked it there. Then Rendi locked the door and closed all the windows of his car. Without turning off the engine. Then turn on the lights and AC in the car.
"Are you satisfied with successfully lying to me?" tanya Rendi was still in her position. But staring intensely at the face of Naziah who was beside him. "Does that mean you want to avoid me?" accusation later.
