71. I'm Married

Syahla sat in her room for a long time. Her tears seemed to have drained away from crying continuously. He felt hurt by Anggika's words to him.

Even so, slowly Syahla's mind opened up a little. Anggika's talk makes him want to not start thinking about his mistakes.

After he thought about it, it seems like Anggika's words have a point as well. In the past, the problem with Kak Rama and Kak Anne also started from Kak Rama who began to be interested in him. Actually Syahla himself felt that he had never done an action that could trigger it, but indeed he could regulate the feelings of others? Even the problem of feeling it to make himself and his husband exposed to great slander.

"It seems to be my fault, indeed" Syahla lowered her head. "Did I unconsciously play with people's feelings?" He then opened the phone and went back to see the photo that Dasha had sent him.

"Seeing them photos together I'm already hot, especially if Mas Amar knows I entered the apartment alone with Gian? If Mas Amar did that, I'd be mad at you." Syahla bit her lips, she then wiped her tears and clenched her hands tightly.

"I have to finish as soon as possible so that no one misunderstands" he said as he exited the room in a hurry.

Syahla set foot into Anggika's tightly closed room. Although still feeling hurt by the words of the friend, he ventured to knock on the door. Actually, he was also very grateful to Anggika for daring to say his mistake directly.

Shahla knocked on the door twice. Aggika came out of the room with a look of surprise. "Why? Still want to get angry?"

Syahla shook her head strongly. "I want to ask you for help."

Anggika frowned. "For?"

"Guet me tomorrow to buy Gian into the restaurant. Do not answer first, let me explain," Syahla hurriedly explained when she saw Anggika was ready to open her mouth to protest.

"I already made a promise with Gian to treat him as a thank you for checking Marla. I can't just forget that promise. But, as you said, I do not want to make a similar misunderstanding like Kak Rama used to. So, I'd like to ask you to accompany us so that we're not alone."

"OK," Anggika nodded her head. "On condition that you have to confess in front of him if you're married."

"That was my plan, indeed" Shahla bit her lip. "I'll talk to him about this tomorrow."

Anggika took a deep breath hearing Syahla's words. Unexpectedly, the girl hugged Shahla tightly.

"I'm sorry, yes" whispered Anggika. "Omongan I'm very outrageous with Lo. But Lo must know that what I'm doing is for Lo's good."

"I understand," Syahla patted Anggika on the back. "I'm even grateful to be reunited with a friend as good as you. Rarely is there anyone who wants to immediately reprimand his best friend when things go wrong."

Anggika outlined their embrace and looked at Syahla with a smile. "Gue really-benar Lo's relationship with Mr. Amar well. Because I know you two love each other so much. I don't want anyone to ruin both of your household lives."

Syahla smile. "I'll try to keep him Nggi,"

"Good, this is new Syahla, my coolest friend."

Syahla laughs. "You're my best friend, I'm not."

...----------------...

"Sorry, have you been waiting a long time?" Gian approached Syahla and Anggika who had sat first at the restaurant table. Despite coming in a hurry, Gian's shirt looks very neat. Her hair was also newly shaved and given hair oil. The women who were inside the restaurant also occasionally glanced towards Gian.

"Not yet," Syahla smiled kindly. "We just wanted to retire. What do you want pesen?"

"Loh, did you forget? I promised you would make a meal as a thank you for torturing Marla" Shahla frowned.

"Gosh, why did you buy everything? Torturing my prayers didn't make me lose, '" Gian patted his own forehead.

"Let's just Yan time, after all Syahla does not like to owe each other." Aggika answered with a smile. "Lo just got home from the clinic?"

"Yes," nod Gian. "It just so happened that a lot of patients came. So sorry it's a little late."

"It's okay. But, the same clothes Lo's hair still looks neat deh? Lo the person is indeed keeping the neatness really?"

Gian was only able to smile awkwardly at Anggika's question. Well, of course he did not want to be caught if he deliberately went home first to the apartment to change clothes after getting an invitation to eat from Shahla. How could he possibly meet the person he liked in a sweaty shirt right? Fortunately yesterday he had time to shave his hair, so this time he just stay to apply a little hair oil to tidy up his appearance.

"Ups," Syahla accidentally dropped her bag, made her stuff scatter out and scattered on the restaurant floor. Soon the girl crouched down to pick up her fallen luggage, and Gian took the initiative to help the girl.

Gian smiled sumringah when their fingers almost touched. But, he choked for a moment when he realized Syahla's ring finger was attached to a gold ring.

"Thank you" said Syahla when his goods have been taken all. Gian just smiled a little while continuing to look at Syahla's ring finger.

"Beautiful right?" chirp Anggika who makes Gian immediately stammered and immediately turned his eyes to Anggika. Anggika pointed at the ring that Syahla was wearing with her index finger. "The ring, loh,"

"Oh," Gian grimaced. "What ring is that?"

"Oh, this is my wedding ring. Nice right?"

Syahla's statement clearly made Gian as if he was struck by lightning in broad daylight. "Per.ni.ka..han?"

"Yes!" Shahla nodded her head. "I haven't said yes? I'm married to Gian,"

Gian widened his eyes. "I never knew you were married. So where is your husband now?"

"Still in Amrik, S3, at Harvard University." Assume deliberately clarifies the last sentence with a showy tone. "Cool right?"

"Ah, panties.." Gian nodded his head. "But you still look so young for married people,"

"The age of both of us is quite far," Syahla explained. "But we're so happy to be together."

Gian mangosteen. He paused for a moment to digest the news he had just heard, as well as neutralize his fainter feelings. Anggika and Syahla looked at each other for a moment, they were guessing how Gian reacted this time. Will it be the same as Rama?

"But.. We're still friends, right?" Gian took a long breath. "Although somewhat disappointing, but I'm very happy. May your marriage be filled with happiness forever and ever,"

"Amen.." Syahla and Anggika guarantee Gian's words simultaneously.

"Thank you for your prayers, Gian" Syahla smiled. Gian returned that smile with a little force. Ah, from now on, she could no longer expect that smile to be just for her.
