The Second Lead Fate
Twenty Four

Finally ... Adhi is feeling more comfortable now. He could wet his sticky body because of the sweat. But, the hospital clothes were already too wet for him. What clothes will he wear now? Adhi looks at the woman who helped him with the towel and hopes to get some more help. But ... Why did the woman close her eyes? When did Ambar go that far from him? What is it with that woman?

"Good night Boss!!!!"

Suddenly a man who did not know himself entered the room without knocking first.

"Lho, Boss. How naked? Continue ... Ambar??? Why are you here? Wh why? What's going on?"

Kenzo immediately approached Adhi after seeing his friend sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. His men immediately covered Adhi with blankets.

"What are you doing?" adhi protest.

"Ambar ... Don't be this boss"

"What?" Adhi took off the blanket Kenzo gave her.

"Duh, Boss"

Adhi and Kenzo are so busy with blankets, they don't realize that the woman sitting on the couch has disappeared.

"What are you doing??" tanya Adhi then threw away her blanket and found out that Ambar had left.

"I'm protecting Ambar. Besides why did the boss take off his shirt in front of Ambar? What have you done together in this room?"

Adhi pointed at the sofa where Ambar was sitting

"Your friend is gone"

"What's? Amber ... Amber!" Kenzo ran out of the room. Most likely chasing his runaway friend.

The atmosphere in the room became heing again after Ambar and Kenzo left, leaving Adhi alone. He did not understand the behavior of his men who continued to cover his body with a blanket. Despite covering all parts of his body, Adhi was sure Ambar had seen a male body. It was impossible for a twenty-six-year-old woman like Ambar to never see the naked upper body of a man. Or ... no? Seeing the woman's reaction, it indicates that Ambar ... . Did ya? What a strange woman. Especially when the girl's best friends are Rea and Feli.

Finally ... finally ...

Ambar set foot in the house he missed so much. He was finally able to leave the hospital and the guy who didn't know the rules.

"Bar, just got home, son?"

Ambar immediately went to hug the mother who came to greet him.

"Assalamualaikum Ma'am"

"Why this?"

"It's okay Mom. Ambar just missed mom today"

His mother let go of Ambar's embrace and started looking at him worriedly.

"Two days you're weird, son? Did something happen in the store?"

"There is no Mom. Ambar wants to take a shower first, sultry"

"Don't forget to eat!"

"Yes"

Ambar went into his room and immediately picked up a towel and fell silent. Because of the towel, he recalled the slightly brown and toned skin. Sweat flowing through muscle trenches formed in the stomach of the guy ... . Ambar threw the towel he was holding onto the floor and then slapped himself.

"You're crazy!! What do you imagine Ambar???" scream in the room.

"Mbar, why?"

His mother's voice from outside the room immediately resuscitated him.

"There's nothing Mom"

"Bath bath keeps eating"

"Yes"

Ambar bit his lower lip and blamed himself for imagining something he should have forgotten. To cast off the shadow, Ambar ran to the bathroom. Turn on the music outside the bathroom and drain the water from the end of his head. Hoping to get rid of the things that bother her mind. Selsai Isya's prayer, she ate and talked with her mother about what was happening around the house. Apparently, the friend she once brought home after missing three days, had just given birth to her third child. Ratih had found a good husband and lived happily in his in-laws' house. Ambar was happy to hear the happy news. But ... once her mother offended the granddaughter, Ambar's eyes turned around.

"It's time, Mom"

"Where can you be if you don't have a husband?"

"Yes, find a husband first. Now it's different, all of you have to think about well and then decide which is good"

"Do you have a choice?" ask mother.

"Not yet"

"Yes that's it. A man is also God's secret"

"But you have to make an effort too. Don't hold on to Kenzo"

"What does Kenzo have to do with him?"

Ambar does not understand the relationship between him not immediately married to his friend.

"Kenzo's a man"

"Who said Kenzo was a girl?"

"Males will not look at women who are often visited by other men"

Ambar speechless. He never once thought that way about men. Are they stupid? Can't tell which friends and girlfriends?

"Udah Ma'am. Ambar wants to go to bed first. Sleepy"

"Yes, you sleep there"

Ambar left his mother who was busy watching soap operas and went into his room. In the room he thought about his mother's words. If you want to have a future husband, does Ambar have to sacrifice his friendship with Kenzo? How quaint. Let him sleep now.

That's plan. But what happened was different than planned. Every time he closed his eyes, that sweat-soaked skin always appeared in his brain. Did he experience what is called late puberty? Therefore Ambar always imagine the awrah of the man he saw earlier? Is it time for her to have a husband? Ohhh, Ambar rubbed his eyes firmly hoping that what he saw just now disappeared.

In the morning Ambar woke up at five in the morning. He rushed to fetch the ablution water and the late Fajr prayers. Despite sleeping too late, he was finally able to forget what he had already seen. Also with the help of a cell phone that shows it silly yellow sponge cartoon with his sea beetle friend.

"What cooking is Mom?" tanyanya went to the kitchen to help her mother.

"Fried tempeh equal flour omelet. Your father has to leave this morning"

"Where's Ma?"

Ambar's father is no longer an angkot driver. But, wanting to keep working, Ambar suggested his father look for a job that is relaxed and not too tiring. Therefore, for more than five years, his father worked as a private driver, a retired lecturer who sometimes still teaches.

"Bogour"

"Long way"

"Yes, that's why the mother is ready to eat first so that your father is not confused to find food later"

"Auxiliary ambar"

Due to Ambar's help, the cooking show became shorter. Soon his father came out of the room and had breakfast.

"Ambar, you eat too" her mother said seeing Ambar going back to her room.

"Later on, ma'am, not yet a laper"

"Ambar ... sit!"

Upon hearing his father's orders, Ambar did not dare to go to the room and sit right in front of his mother.

"Why Sir?"

"Yesterday I met his son Boss. His name is Galih, he is a lecturer in Civil Engineering at State University. Civil servants"

Ambar still doesn't know the direction his father's talk is going. What to brag about his employer's son or insinuate him for not attending college.

"Why did you get it, sir?"

"He wants to see you"

"Huh?"

Why suddenly? What the hell does this mean?

"Galih, he's two eights. Two years different from you. Find a hijab-wearing wife, have a job and you know me"

"Well?"

"What?"

"Why Father?"

"You're old enough to enjoy. The same father mother also wants to hold the arms of a granddaughter like another neighbor. Later you give your number to Galih and you can contact yourself"

Ambar actually understood about his father and mother's concern about this. Because he saw all his friends who mostly hold babies, his mother also often reminded him to get married soon. His age of twenty-six is also a consideration for getting married.

But, marriage is not something that is easy for Ambar. Considering he once had a fat body, ugly face acne, and no one liked at that time. Now, Ambar could only quietly hear his father's advice on marriage.
