The Two Hearts
OPENING STORY
*Flashback*
Cring.., Cring...,
The alarm sounds, indicating 04:26 am. Also heard, the sound of a very beautiful Adhan from the mosque sebrang street.
Hearing the sound of the alarm clock and the sound of the adhan, Rahma rushed to get up and took the water. The goddess who heard the Adzan immediately realized from her beautiful dream then rushed to take water wudlu as well. Rahma, Dewi and her kost friends then pray together at dawn, imitated by their Host. They solemnly followed the bersama'ah dawn prayer.
After finishing the prayer, Rahma and Dewi came out of the boarding house to exercise. Every morning after the dawn prayer, they always exercise. Usually they run in the field near the boarding house. Sometimes they also do yoga, badminton or skipping (jumping rope) in the boarding house.
The sun began to greet the day. Revealed his warm smile, and sucked in the bright rays behind the leaves that were still wet from the cool drops of the dew. The birds' singing began to sound. The flowers began to bloom spreading a fragrant fragrant aroma. Rahma and Dewi's footstep snore by snoring towards the boarding house, passing the grass that is still fun doing the day-welcoming dance. After reaching the boarding house, they immediately took a shower, then went to the stall before the boarding house to buy breakfast.
"I wrap rice pecel in dried tempe bu. Add bakwan 1 and tempe one. Drink some warm tea." Rahma ordered on Siti's mom.
"I wrap stewed rice in an omelet bu. Drink warm sweet tea." said Dewi.
The clock shows at 06:30 a.m. Residents of the boarding house after finishing breakfast, immediately prepare to go to campus. No exception Rahma and Dewi, they immediately walk through a narrow alley to the campus. Sometimes, they prefer to walk compared to having to bring a car, because it will be very troublesome when looking for a parking location. The distance to the campus is about 300 meters and takes 5 minutes by walking.

"Assalamu'alaikum." Anita's voice broke the laughter of the students who were busy chatting. Bu Anita is Lecturer of Introduction to Macro Economics.
The class was going on that day. Rahma, Dika, Novan and Rere were given assignments for today's presentation. With solemnity, Ms. Anita and the students listened to the paper material submitted by Rahma and her friends.
Crings-Kring...
The lecture hour mark is over.
One by one, students leave the class. There are those who go to the cafeteria, to the library, to the campus auditorium building to do assignments, there are seminars, there are seminars, follow extracurricular activities on campus and there are also those who immediately rush home to the boarding house or to their respective homes. This is the activity of the students every day.

Drrtt... Drrtt...
There was the sound of Rahma's phone vibrating. Spontaneous Rahma opened the bag and looked for her HP. He saw the HP, "Oh, it was Arya who called." he muttered slowly.
"Assalamu'alaikum." Rahma started the conversation.
"Wa'alaikum greetings." replied Arya.
"How are you today, Ra?" Are you busy today?" Arya asked.
"Alhamdulillah good. Today yes, Em .. I guess there is no event. Why, Ar?" Rahma asked back.
"Do you have time to meet me? I want to take you out for dinner. Later, Dewi and Dion will also come." Arya explained.
"Emm .. How about, OK! What time is it, Ar?"
"Jam 5 pm later you are the same Goddess not picked up at the boarding house. I'll go with Dion."
"Oh, that. Ok Ar."
"Eh, yes, Ra. I have this guest. I'll see you later in the afternoon Ra. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikum salutations." Rahma turned off the phone.

The clock shows at 17:30. Rahma and Goddess look very good. They both sat in the living room. Every now and then, they see the phone, like they're waiting for someone.
Brum... Brum...
"Ra, looks like it's Arya's car coming." The goddess walked to the terrace.
Two handsome young men came out of the car. Seeing the person who awaited has come, Rahma immediately went out to the terrace following the Goddess. A friendly smile greeted each other, between the four of them.
"Hi dear, hi Ra." said Dion smiling.
"Hi." answered the Goddess and Rahma.
"I'm sorry if you waited a long time. It was jammed one way. We had our numbers from 14:30. It should be here by 16:30. But it's a blow until 17:30 and it's only here." Arya gave an explanation for her delay.
"Yes, it's okay. We can understand. Isn't that right, Wi?" While poking the Goddess. And the Goddess just smiled.

Upon arrival at a steakhouse, the four of them headed straight to table number 9. The table is in the corner.
"Hahaha" the laughter of the two young couples sounded not so loud. They look so good talking. I don't know what they're talking about, until they look so happy.
After finishing eating the food they ordered, Dion suddenly invited Dewi away.
"Honey, let's go shopping. Kan, yesterday you said that you want to buy clothes and shoes." Dion's invitation to the Goddess.
The goddess who felt that she did not say that, became confused, "Em... mosok anyway? When did I say that to you Yank?"
"Dear to forget? Yes, let's go to the mall over there to buy clothes. I'd like to buy a shirt too. I want you to choose." While holding the shoulder of the Goddess to leave immediately.

An atmosphere of silence and a sudden sense of awkwardness encompassed Rahma and Arya. Sometimes they look at each other, then smile at each other.
Where do I start it? What am I supposed to tell him? Is he angry, isn't he? Is he going to reject me? Be present.so groggy me.
"Where are they going?" Rahma's question surprised Arya, who was busy muttering in her heart.
Arya who was still shocked, answered Dewi with stammering, "Ta-was Dion like a goddess shopping ngajak. But don't know where?
"Eh, how are you doing now, Ra? Is it better than yesterday? Don't be sad anymore. Buruan move. It's moved on, right?" Arya asked with a smile.
"Yes, thank God it's better. It's been a while, obviously it's moved on! But it also dragged on in sadness. Aren't you? Haha." Rahma answered while laughing.
Dion who heard Rahma's explanation only responded with a big smile.
Well, how is this. I'm talking now, aren't I? But, if not now, when else do I find the right time. If it does not delay, it will be until when in this obscurity.
After being pretty sure, Arya ventured to talk, "Ra, can I ask you something?"
"Can you ask What is Ar?"
"Are you ready if I commit? I don't want to have an unclear relationship. I want us to go through a courtship to wait for graduation. After we graduate and work together, I'll ask my parents for permission to apply for you right away, and then we'll get married. Are you ready, Ra?" aryan's heartbeat is getting irregular waiting for an answer from Rahma.
"Emm .. how is it .. , Rahma thought for a moment, Rahma thought for a moment,
"I-yeah I'm ready, Ar."
"Seriously, Ra? You accept me?" Aryan eyes twinkled.
"Yes. But ... "
"But what, Ra?" Arya immediately panicked.
"I hope you're consistent with everything you said. And we both keep this commitment." said Rahma.
"Yes Ra, I'll be consistent with the commitments we've made."
Since then, Rahma and Arya have been in a special relationship more than just friends and sharing friends. From there, the opening story of the relationship between the two love stories began.
