Mirza and Lila, who were left alone, still threw smiles at each other for a while.
"La, you're almost two years free. Not what, trying a new relationship?" ask Mirza.
Lila shakes. "No, Za. Lila's still traumatized, it's like it was just yesterday" Lila replied.
Mirza nodded her head. "Yes too, anyway. Insolent is a guy, play kiss your cheeks carelessly!" mirza's growl recalls the events of that time, when Lila and Juan's two-year anniversary was dating.
That afternoon, the five of them, including Juan, were watching a movie without Lili because the twin sister Lila had just given birth.
As usual, Mirza is always on standby to protect Nezia and Lila if her best friend is alone with her lover, see firsthand the incident when Juan was stealing a kiss on Lila's cheek at the time of the movie on the cinema screen is underway.
Lila immediately slaps her brash boyfriend, while Mirza steps forward to Juan's bench and rewards the son of one of the officials at the ministry with a raw bogem right on Juan's sweet face.
Juan complained, to make the atmosphere in the building soundproofed it became rowdy. Lila immediately hugged Mirza and prevented her best friend from acting further.
Not to protect Juan, but because Lila doesn't want Mirza to get into trouble later. After all, the slap from Lila, the punch from Mirza and the fist from Attar who immediately moved quickly once knowing that Juan was brash with his best friend, was enough to make Juan deterred.
"Za, hi. .. instead of daydreaming," Lila's soft voice broke Mirza's daydream.
"Mirza remembered the incident at the cinema, La," Mirza replied. "It should be then, you don't need to prevent Mirza from making that perverted man's face battered, La!" Mirza seemed to be carried away with emotion.
"Yes, Lila don't want to, Za, you're in trouble and dealing with the law" Lila replied.
"Already, don't remember. We slapped him a rame-rame, right? In public places too, must be so ashamed of him!" lila continued, trying to calm the friend.
"Yes, anyway. But still less, La. Because of him, your cheeks are not virgin anymore, right?" Mirza looked at Lila deeply.
"Hem ... "replies Lila with a mutter, while stroking her right cheek that was once kissed by the former.
"But Mirza is the one who keeps you out of sight. Uh, even the other guy who feels first!" mirza's grumbling was indistinct, making Lila frown.
"What are you talking about, Za?" ask Lila.
"Eh, no really," Mirza replied as she scratched her non-itchy nape.
"Your cheeks, too, are not virgin, Za. Aye, right?" ask Lila to make sure.
"Know where you are? From the Tiara, huh?"
Lila nodded.
"Yes, damn it, girl. Just twice on the road, dare to kiss a guy! Not really, girl like that?" murmur Mirza who was suddenly carried away by emotions.
Still remembered in the mind of Mirza, when that night the same road Tiara and the hijab girl Lila's department friend then asked to be delivered home.
Arriving in front of Tiara's house and when the girl was about to get off Mirza's car, Tiara suddenly kissed Mirza's cheek while saying. "I'm yours, Za. Whenever you want, I'm ready."
Mirza who was shocked, immediately pushed Tiara's body to the point of staring at the door. "Down from my car now and after this, just assume that we never knew each other!" Mirza.
"Za," called Lila softly, resuscitating Mirza from her daydream.
"Yes, what's wrong?" ask Mirza.
"Go home, yuk!" take Lila.
"A minute, La. Rarely, can we both be like this?" reject Mirza.
"Eh, would you like another drink, wouldn't you?" tawar Mirza's.
Lila shakes. "Udah is enough."
"La, what are your dream guy criteria, La?" ask Mirza suddenly.
"Eh, what?" lila was surprised.
"What is your dream husband, Laila Princess Devano?" repeat Mirza while mentioning Lila's full name.
"Not grandiose, anyway. The important thing is both, love Lila and be able to become a priest for our little family later" Lila replied with a smile.
"If you were, Za? Must be pretty, right? Your boyfriend is beautiful" Lila guess.
"That simple?" ask Lila not to believe it.
"Yes, La. It was as simple as that but until now, Mirza had not been able to find it either. Especially if Mirza asks for grandiose?" mirza replied while looking at Lila with a deep gaze.
A moment of silence greeted the table of the two of them, only a sweet sound was heard from the home band vocalist who chanted a song about love live in the cafe.
A song from the group Drive's single that Anji fronted as the vocalist, 'I Am He', was released around 2010. A song that tells the story of the dreams of two human children, of course, dreams related to love.
'Never stop looking for love
There is always something you don't like
Too far away you see
Try to feel what's around you'
'Surely he is near you
But you never realized that
He's always waiting for you
To show love'
'Surely he is me
More than just your close friend
Stop looking
Because you found him'
The two friends listened to the song carefully and then looked at each other, they both smiled.
"You guys don't feel it, Mirza, Lila. That song earlier, insinuating the two of you?" asked Arjuna who was suddenly near them. Arjuna then sat down next to Mirza.
"Bang Juna, just ngagetin!" mirza protests while punching Arjuna's arm slowly.
"Yes, Za. You enjoyed that song. Until I don't hear when I ask," ledek Arjuna.
Mirza just smiled.
"Barusan Bang Juna said that the song insinuated us. How insinuating, did Bang Juna mean?" ask Lila not to understand.
"Yes, it's not about two friends who are both looking for true love. Though the people who were wanted to and fro turned out to be very close, after a long time they realized that they had fallen in love with each other" Arjuna replied at length.
"We're not in love with each other, Za?" reply Lila, who asked Mirza.
"Maybe not yet, La. But who knows, right? Mate, rizqi and death, right, divine secrets?" arjuna was wise.
Lila and Mirza nodded compactly.
"That's true, anyway," Mirza confirmed. "But yes, I don't know," he continued.
"Go home, Za! It's late afternoon, here," take Lila back.
Both are moving. "Oke Bang Juna, thank you for the freebies" said MIrza. "We're back first" said Mirza later.
"Don't forget, tomorrow afternoon is coming" pinta Arjuna, to which Mirza and Lila answered with a nod of the head.
The two of them rushed to leave the cafe, to go to the residence of his grandmother Mirza because every weekend they all always gather there.
"Where do you want to go straight to grandma's house or where did you go, La?" mirza asked after the two of them were in the car.
"Just go home, Za. It was a very late afternoon, afraid of being stuck," replied Lila.
"Ready, Queen Mother," Mirza replied with a sweet smile, which made Lila frown.
