To be the Second

To be the Second
Meeting old friends..


Aziz_PoV


" Greetings walaikum.." Abah replied as he stood up from his seat, while I was still stunned when I saw who someone who was not there was no wind no rain suddenly came to visit the house. I forgot I was in a time of mourning.


What makes me stunned again turned out to be not just one person, but all family members consisting of six adults in addition to small children who I believe their grandchildren. I stood up but still kept silent to see Abah's interaction which warmly welcomed her guests this morning. I don't know what time this group left this morning.


" Abah, my family came to offer their deepest condolences for the death of Umm Salima, sorry that I and my family just came Bah." He said while glancing at me. I'm so wrong if it's like this, it's been a long time since we've met. And maybe five more.


" And you! What kind of friend are you! Not calling me at all? Marriage is not invited anymore! Actually, I still think you're a friend, no!" Her babble that started everywhere, I could only sigh deeply.


" I'm sorry, I don't want to tell you, but I haven't had a chance, really! You how are you?" My regret that may not be accepted by him. And I immediately asked the news, wanting to approach her I was a little embarrassed.


Maybe he knew if I hesitated to step up, so Yanu who first embraced my body, we hugged each other like twins who had long been separated. Unaware we both had already dissolved in deep sadness, these two corners of the eyes had already shed tears, I immediately rubbed violently. Let it be taken as a crybaby only today.


" Thank God, good news Bro. hehe. Hope you are healthy too. But I guess you've always been healthy, let alone getting a much younger wife. Get more youthful." His whisper was right in my ear, how did he know I was marrying a little girl? Huh,! I didn't think he knew everything about me, while I? I don't know anything about his relationship with his wife.


" Already, we should all go in first. Come on, Yanu and everyone." Invite Abah, who is a man named Yanu, to lead him into the house.


When we all stepped into the house, my tail accidentally saw a girl either turned into a woman or not, I don't know. But I was obviously a little embarrassed by him. He must have seen me crying. Ahh, never mind, it happened too.


" Thank you for the arrival of Nak Yanu and all the family members. We're so moved." Abah looked at Yanu and her parents in tears.


After greeting his brother Yanu, and a man I didn't know, I chose to go behind to tell Neng Atin to make our guest a drink and some snacks ahead, I chose to go back to tell Neng Atin to make our guest a drink and some snacks ahead, then I went back to the front.


Yanuar. Yeah that guy was my best friend in a ponpes first, a college friend, a motorcycle club member with me. And after I decided to marry Nikmah, we lost the contack. And when I had the opportunity to come to visit his house, I was made to gasp that he was married and settled out of town, he lives in the capital city with the wife he married. And his arrival this morning, it really surprised me, that's for sure, a new year to meet today.


I glanced at Yanu, that man really has a lot of changes, yes even though his face is still handsome from the past, no less handsome than me. Even now it's much more handsome than me, making me a little insecure. Then my gaze was accidentally crossed with a woman, but she first cut off her gaze and chose to bow back, the woman whose status is the younger sister of my best friend Yanu. She was named Syifa, the woman also changed a lot, more _Oh Allah, Astagfirullah, think what I am, remember the wife in the house of Aziz! I really do grieve my stupidity that has roasted everywhere.


While I was still pensive in the twitching of my own mind, I was immediately jolted as soon as my shoulder was patted by someone, and there was no need to find out who did it if not Yanu my ignorant friend. It turns out that the nature of the prank is still the same from the past.


" Echemm! What morning do you think, bro? Remember your little wife?" He asked me to look amusedly at me, did I just get caught off guard? I hope he and everyone in this room didn't see my ridiculous act.


" Huh! Oh, nothing." I chose to sit near the connecting door, Yanu also sat beside me. He had chosen to sit with a woman who I believed was his wife. " I'm sorry, i_


" My son is five, two sons and three daughters. You alone?" I asked back, I was really curious too. Although I saw two little children a pair sitting between two women, who may be the same age as my son Aidan. And of course it is the answer to my question, but I want to hear the answer from my best friend.


" As you can see, that pair of little children are my twin sons. Well, I can't believe you're diligent, too, Mr. Abdullah?." The question that deliberately teases me," Still not even more? It seems like your hips are much stronger than mine." he added, increasingly chuckling at me. If there are not many people here, I've been left since this person upset me.


" Eitss, we're old, we can't be angry. Shame on our next generation." Her back chirps whispered to me.


Maybe he saw the tip of my horn coming out of the top of my head, or maybe it was a little smoke coming out of it. Yes only with my best friend Yanu I behave like this, because there are only behaviors that irritate me. Surprisingly, it was precisely I felt comfortable with his behavior that could make me laugh. The longer our friendship the more sticky the day, maybe that's what's called a cocoon. And it made me unable to go and find another man's friend, for there was no friend like Yanu. A trustworthy friend as well as a place to share my joys and sorrows.


Before long Neng Atin came to bring a tray of drinks in the aid of my daughter Mus and also my daughter Hilda. " This is my two daughters, his names are Musdalifah and Hilda. " I introduced my two daughters to him.


After putting some dishes containing snacks on the carpet, my two daughters took turns to greet Yanu's mother and wife and Syifa, then clenched their palms to the men who were here. I am so proud of my two daughters.


" Where was Nak Yanu from? How come you got here so early in the morning?" Ask Abah who already knows, if Yanu is actually not a real person here, but he used to live in his Uncle's house in this city before entering the ponpes with me.


" Actually just yesterday we arrived here, there was an event at my Cacak house. Upon hearing this sad news, we were all invited to visit here with Yanu, who he said was his best friend who used to help him a lot during the ponpes and everywhere, so we came here, too, to say so many thanks to you, Mr. Haji also especially to Nak Aziz who has been willing to help our son." Abah Yanu looked at me teary-eyed.


" I'm sorry, I feel bad if it's like this, even though Yanu also helped me a lot Bah, we helped each other." My reply is a little down. And it's true that Abahku knows clearly, because Yanu used to stay in this house a lot.


" Yes the point is that friends help each other, right? A friend is someone who is always there when we want to share stories and pay attention when we need it. When we are with our friends there is no sadness, they will always make us smile." Abah's voice seemed to understand, but I saw a sad look in my two eyes. I don't know what it is? We also continue to chat until almost noon, if it has been together like this, I also sometimes forget the time, know-know has entered the mandatory prayer time.
