REIJI

“Wake up, Mrs Reiji! Fajr Prayer.”

I was still in England, and deliberately set the alarm on my phone which I set by adjusting the Jakarta time, so that I could contact Lia at dawn.

And if I heard from Lia's voice who had received my phone call - and only said deheman, Lia didn't seem to be fully conscious from her sleep. “Let's wake my dear wife..”.

“Hm –“

“I've been in the lobby of this apartment –“

“Hah?!” I heard Lia squealing from across the phone.

And I guess, he must have risen from his position by now.

“Truly, Rei?!”

“Hehehe..”.

I chuckle from my place.

“Canda-“

“Iihh-“

“Maap.”

I said later.

“The reason is that you are difficult to build anyway?-“

“I'm awake, okay?.” said Lia. “Just feed lives first, just really wake up..”

I just smiled at my place, hearing Lia - who I imagined as I grumbled with her pursed lips as she spoke.

“Ya already, maap if ngagetin.”

I said.

And I heard Lia snorting from across the phone.

“Dimaapin ga?” soft ask.

“Luckily I love. So yes I easily maapinnya.”.

I chuckled after hearing Lia's reply.

“Cih, yes?”

“By-by double..”.

“Siap Mrs Reiji.”

“What time is it there, Rei?” malia asked when her laziness and sleepiness had disappeared.

“About ten o'clock malem pass –“

“Hmm.”

Malia cleared her throat in response to Reiji's reply.

“Terus, what are you doing now?.” asks Malia again.

“Call wife,” Reply Reiji.

“Not another wife, right?..”

Reiji immediately clucked at Malia's accusation, which Reiji knew was not serious.

“Gotly you accuse Akang so, Dek!.” said Reiji, then he and Malia both chuckle.

“Ya times? –“

“Ya times... yes times..”.

Reiji grumbled, and Malia snorted amusedly from her place.

“His husband is working to buy this bucket of diamonds,” Reiji said. “Malah accused of being bengga-engga –“

“Yes I have it, si?”

Malia defended herself.

“Iya, yes,” Reiji. “Think now his wife Reiji pocecip –“

“Continue, problem? –“

“Ga dong's. Even seneng I if you are possessive with me, Yang.”.

“Dih, bizarre. Is there a husband who likes his wife possessive?.” timpal Malia.

“There...” exchange Reiji. “I!“

Malia snorted amusedly once again.

“Yes already, you first dawn huh?” reiji said shortly afterwards. “Later if it can contact me, just call ya?”

“Iya,” Malia replied.

“Love you, Yang.”

“Love you too, Rei.”

*

‘Udah sleep Rei?’

Malia types in and sends a chat to Reiji's contact number.

Where a moment later the ringing of Malia's phone immediately sounded.

A video call invitation from Reiji that went into Malia's cell phone.

And Malia covered her smile. “Miss you,” Malia utters and Reiji's smile expands on Malia's phone screen.

“Miss you more-“

“You alone?”

“Duh still can't believe this Madame Reiji is with her husband?”

Reiji gave an amused grunt later, and Malia smiled.

“Bentar..”

And the next second, the camera from Reiji's phone changed the scene.

Now Malia's phone screen is no longer treated to Reiji's face, but the atmosphere of a room.

Where the view of the room atmosphere seen on the screen of Malia's phone, moved the point after a few seconds.

“Believe now that I am alone?.” Reiji's voice is heard, but his face is still not re-plastered on Malia's phone screen.

*

Malia continued to smile, as Reiji seemed to be giving evidence of her loyalty, by showing all corners of the room where her husband was now.

“Iya I believe, Rei ..” said Malia, after Reiji spoke while asking, when Reiji also showed on his phone camera - the bathroom in the room where Reiji was.

“I would never do that stupid thing, Which ..”

Reiji's voice, along with his face, has been re-seen on Malia's mobile screen.

“Iya, Rei – “

“Ga need to be prejudiced.”

“Iyaa.”

Malia replied, then smiled.

“Just kidding (Joking only ) too, how come? –“

“No longer questioned or doubted so my loyalty is with you, Yang ..”

Malia still smiled, then nodded after Reiji spoke just now. “Iya sorry.”

“Wait for me to go home, well? –“

“Definitely, Rei ..”

“Ya already, I closed ya? –“

“Iya ..” exchange Malia.

“Btw, want any souvenirs? ..”

“You returned home safe and sound wal afiat it was enough, Rei ..” sincere Malia.

MALIA

This morning, I left for the office without using my car.

I chose one of the many still-appearing cabs in the area where the cabs were placed in one of the outer corners of the apartment building, where I lived and Rei.

I stared at the street I was walking towards the office, from inside the taxi I used to go to the office with an inexhaustible smile. Maybe it's because I'm happy right now with Rei.

And also really flattered by Rei's attitude towards me, where both his attitude and his words always describe Rei so adoring me. The thing I've been grateful for in every bow lately.

--

I'm overtime today, because there's a new project Mr. Andra gave me and the team.

It had also told Rei that I was going to overtime, but my chat had not been sent out yet only one check of the ashes that had not changed since I sent the chat.

Only one possibility, Rei was already on his way in the air to return to Indonesia.

I also understood that, without any irritation because my message that has been a few hours has not been sent also to Rei's contact number.

Because far away days Rei has told me, if he won't touch his phone if it's working, even if there's a safe time to use the phone while on the plane.

But Rei has his own principles, and I appreciate them.

Besides, I don't want to interfere too much, if it's about Rei's work.

Except, if Rei asks me to interfere or give you responses and opinions, like when he was offered to be a private pilot.

-

I was overtime, but not too late, because my team decided to continue tomorrow. And again, Mr. Andra did not hunt us down to finish it very quickly.

But I and my two co-workers were the last to come out of our room, because me and my two colleagues said they had more responsibility, in every project Mr. Andra gave my team.

The office building looks very quiet, but still bright.

Usually it will be darkened after nine pm, because in the previous time, in some companies that become merchants in the building, each –, well average. Have employees who are most likely to be overtime every day, such as the company where I work.

Me and the two co-workers who were with me, split up outside the lobby because my two co-workers had been waiting for their partners, who were waiting to pick up the two female co-workers.

The two offered to drive me home which I refused, because I knew exactly the direction of their house opposite to the location of my apartment building. And I don't want to make them bother having to go back and forth through Jakarta's congestion just to drive me.

It wasn't too late, so taxis were still easy to get. “Dead yes, Li? .. Beware lo.”

The words of my two colleagues, when they have entered their car – each driven by their partner.

I also answered them by also replying to the wave of the hands of my two colleagues, as well as the farewell sentence of the second couple that I already know.

Where when I saw the couple of my two co-workers, I became reminded of Rei. If Rei's off duty, he'll pick me up. Ah so kangen right?...

Talk about Rei...

“Lia,” there was a baritone voice greeting me as I was about to ask the building security to call me a taxi.

But unfortunately, the baritone's voice did not belong to Reiji.

Unless owned...

“Kak Irsyad?..”
