episode 98's
Habibi leads Arum to the door.
“Mas direct home yes dek.”
“Iya. Careful.”
Arum stands on the terrace, watching Habibi get into the car until the car moves and disappears from his sight.
“Assalamu’alaikum.”
“Wa’alaikumsalam”
Arum shakes his mother's hand.
“Bu, Arum want to take a quick shower. Ardi called. Said he wanted to send Arum.” test taker card
“Why does Ardi send?”
“Yesterday Arum login cannot log in. So Ardi who registered has Arum.”
“Oh. Yes, shower there.” Mother says.
“Let's call Arum ya ma'am. If Ardi has arrived.”
“Iya.” Reply mother.
Arum went up to his room. He picked up a blue shirt and towel and went into the bathroom. Long enough Arum doused his body with water shower. Finally took his shower. Arum wears toska-colored pajamas and wears a hijab. He sat on the bed, opening up about his SPMB test.

After passing through the security post, Ardi was on the high fence of Arum's house. Security guard, already familiar enough with Ardi so immediately open the fence. Not many Arum guests who come because it's security so know every guest who comes. Ardi opened the car window.
“Thank you mas.” with a smile visible on his face.
“Iya mas Ardi.”
Ardi arrived at Arumi's house after Maghrib prayers. Ardi parked his car in the parking lot of Arum's house and broke the bell. Art opens the door.
“Eh mas Ardi.”
“Mbak Keke still remember me?”
“Still dong mas. Handsome guy like Ardi mas, hard to forget.” With a shy smile.
Keke's an art at Arum's house. Women over the age of 30 are unmarried. According to his story, Mbak Keke was once left by a lover on the day of marriage contract. After that, Keke had never been in contact with men
Ardi laughing. “Mbak keke can aja.”
“Please enter. Want to make a drink what mas.” The artist asked politely.
“Town by mbak Keke. The important thing is sweet, do not spicy.”
“Mas Ardi could have.” A smile on the lips of the woman.
Siti came from behind. “Nak Ardi.”
“Iya buk.”
Siti walked closer to Ardi. Ardi stood up from his seat. He shook the middle-aged woman's hand.
“But healthy?”
“Alhamdulillah healthy son. Son Ardi how are you? How's college?”
“Alhamdulillah good buk. College is also good.”
“Tadi go home, Arum go straight up. Shower but now may be ready.” Obviously Arumi's mother.
“He's okay buk. Azzam and Aisah where buk?”
“They're in the mosque son. Prayer and njai.”
Ardi nodded his head. Ardi saw the photo on display with a large frame. A photo of a man in a doctor's white suit. Standing with his hands folded on his chest. High posture, a well-built body, white skin and straight middle hair. It looks like Oki Alexander. Older artist in the film Notes Si Boy. Photos that have been edited by a photo editor and in print with a large size.
“Arum resembles his father yes buk.”
Ma'am Keke put 2 glasses of orange juice on the table. “At drinking mas, ibuk.”
“Still yes To. Ke, please call Arum above yes.”
“Iya buk.” Ma'am Keke stepped his feet towards the top floor.
“So it turns out Arum's boss, Arum's dad's best friend ya buk.”
“Iya nak.”
“I was shocked too, when I heard Arum's story. I also did not expect it turns out the life story of the late om Mardi is very tragic.”
“Iya son. That's what destiny is like. We don't know what our destiny is. Our destiny was even predetermined before we were born.”
Ardi nodded his head.
“Ardi,” Arum coming from behind. Ardi raised his head towards the back.
“Udah long?” ask Arumi again.
“Not yet. The drink is not yet drunk.” Evidently
Arum smile. “Ya has been drinking. Looks like you're thirsty.” Reply Arum
“Bismilbornrahmanirrahim.” Ardi drank the juice on his desk.
“Non Arum want to drink what?”
“Teh pull mbak.”
“Oke non.”
Ardi took out the paper from inside the bag. “This is your exam card.”
Arum took the exam card that was already in the Prin Ardi. He looked at the test schedule and the test location.
“Mother to back yes son. Oh yes, you have dinner here yes.”
“Iya buk's. Can, if not troublesome.”
Siti laughs. “You are, like everyone else.”
“Gak buk's. Just kidding.” Reply Ardi.
“You are nak.” Siti walked to the back.
“Thursday Front In. This is the location?”
“Iya, next thursday. I'll take you to see the location and tell you to go to the test.”
“Am I not repotin you?”
“Gak, we happen to be off.”

“OK, sipppp do’ain yes.”

“Non Arum, mas Ardi, dinner is ready. I'm waiting in the dining room.”
