“Why is your face tangled so?.”

Abbas, one of Reiji's friends, asked Reiji who had arrived at his apartment.

After Reiji sent a chat in a chat group whose members were his best friends from since High School were together.

Friends who had been busy with their respective activities, and had a vacuum to communicate either in the chat application or meet, are now strengthening the fabric of their friendship that had vacuum it with a routine meeting.

“Eh, by the way, why are you dating alone? Said he wanted to take bini lo?.” This is Abbas speaking while asking one of Reiji's friends, as he has welcomed Reiji's arrival in his private apartment.

Abbas's apartment, which was the choice of Reiji and his friends, gathered together , because Reiji is advancing the time to meet those who plan to be held in the afternoon in a cafe and then will spend Saturday night together doing anything fun.

“Ga can come, already hunted no promise with his friend.” Reiji answered Abbas's question as he took his place in the living room of Abbas's apartment.

Abbas, who had closed the door to his apartment, then walked closer to Reiji, gave a tingly snort. “Don't because bini lo ga can come again, your face so I?”

Abbas joked then.

“PS light!”

Reiji did not prank Abbas and asked one of his best friends to turn on his console game engine that Reiji saw, kala Reiji had thrown himself violently onto the sofa in the living room of Abbas's apartment.

“Iya Aging! ..” as late as Abbas who then stepped in to turn on his console game engine.

Reiji also snorted amusedly with the behavior of Abbas who answered him with ridiculous behavior. Then he catches deftly the console game Abbas throws at him.

And after that Abbas took his place beside Reiji, waiting for their other companions to come.

Abbas glanced at Reiji who was choosing a game in his console game engine.

“Ribut equals Malia lo?”

Abbas asked, assuming.

Reiji nodded faintly without turning to Abbas with Reiji's eyes that seemed to focus on the television screen where Abbas's console game engine was installed.

“What do you drink? ..” asked Abbas who paused first to ask Reiji further, because he caught Reiji's gelagat who is currently angry.

“Quit what is there!” reiji replied while remaining focused on the television screen.

“Bir?” ask Abbas.

“Sunday!” answer Reiji.

Abbas chuckled to see the tangled look of one of his best friends.

“Nih soda ae ..”

Abbas placed a can of fizzy drink on the table near Reiji.

“Lo if you are rese!”

“Sekate-kate lo kalo by the way, nyet!” Reiji replied to a sloppy sneer from Abbas.

And Abbas was laughing.

“So, what do you want to tell us? ..”

“What story?”

Reiji asked Abbas, who asked him just now.

“Bini lo can not come because already there is an appointment with him, or lo fuss as he keeps lo run here?”

Abbas rambled a little while asking, as he had accompanied Reiji to play a game in his game console engine.

Waiting for the arrival of their other friends.

While Reiji looked lazily at Abbas who snorted amusedly later. “Yes has changed since marriage? ... Usually that is it? ..”

“That's what do you mean? ..”

Reiji asked Abbas, without taking his eyes off the game he was playing.

“Ya run to best-prend abis rib equally bini!”

Abbas answered all of that. Makes Reiji snort amusedly.

“Lo think I'm a boy?!”

Reiji said he was angry at Abbas's speech earlier.

Abbas then giggled.

“Nah abis lo face asyem so, keep asking for our agreement in advance anyway!” Abbas said later. “Mo confide in lo?!”

“Sok you know lo!” sergeant Reiji.

But after that Reiji fell silent, seeming to sigh a little heavy.

And it did not escape Abbas's sight.

“Lo storm with Malia? ..”

Abbas then asked a question.

“Or your handsome face lo again this sticky season, just because Malia can not you bring again to gather with us-we people?”

“One time you Mas Abbas?! ... Admin lambe lo now?..” pout Reiji, but after that he chuckles.

Abbas laughed at Reiji's scorn.

“Btw, how does marriage feel? ..”

REIJI

I covered from the reading room to the balcony of the apartment, on a miserable Sunday night that I felt all my life.

Having an official, legal and halal partner, but on a Sunday night where I should be accompanied by my spouse whose status is the wife, I was alone under the sky of Jakarta without stars.

How lyrical.

On the balcony of the apartment I had lived in for almost five months with my wife, I was thinking about my marriage and Lia which went more or less the same as when we were in this apartment.

And I remembered Abbas's question in the apartment of one of my best friends. How does marriage feel? ...

Somehow explain it.

My marriage and Lia that started from an arranged marriage.

Then I assumed and I was sure that Lia and I would be adjusting to each other in this marriage.

Love each other and be loved.

But the truth is, this adjustment of myself and Lia to our marriage, was already being pestered by past affairs before I could win my wife's heart.

Dear Lia, please,

What do you want me to do anyway?.
