After the meal, Tirta and Bharata rushed to the library. Upon arrival there, Tirta accidentally meets his old friend, Ani. In the past they often met in the library when Tirta 1st grade High School and Ani was 3rd grade High School.
After that, they did not tell each other. But now Ani has seen a change. Ani looks fuller, she's pregnant. Tirta saw Ani being led by a man.
Maybe it was her husband. Thought Tirta.
"Ani huh?" Welcome Tirta to the entrance of the Library.
"Lhoooh Tirta ... You here? How are you?" Ani Sahut.
"Good news An, how are you? Well, I guess there's a new member." Ask Tirta.
"This is your husband, An?" Ask her again.
"Alhamdulillah do know this is my husband, Dika." Answer Ani.
"It's about to enter the seventh month." Further.
Tirta then shook hands with Dika introducing himself. Shaking hands.
"Truth."
"Become."
Tirta noticed Dika who was so romantically treating his wife. Because the library was wearing a carpet pad so that all visitors who entered had to take off their shoes.
It appears that Dika is helping to open his wife's shoes. Romantic, the two then sat on the sofa.
"Eh Ta, it's me while eating rujak here no papa right? Her name is also pregnant again, eat a lot" said Ani while grinning.
Tirta replied casually as if the library belonged to her father.
"Please An. Would you like some warm tea?" Tirta started joking.
They then chatted, while Ani's husband looked for a book on the health of the womb.
"Eh Tirta's. How are you doing this, that's our friends already on the wedding you're waiting for?" Ask Ani.
"This is it, I'm still in school, yeah later." Replied Tirta in a relaxed tone.
Although Ani was older than Tirta, Tirta did not call her sister because Ani had rejected the call.
"Oh yeah, sorry-sorry I forgot that you're younger than our old friends?" His word.
"And again you're the one who's selective, if the girlfriend doesn't have one?" ask Ani again.
"The candidate already exists, but ...." Suddenly Tirta's sentence came to a halt as she looked at Kevin.
Kevin's in the library. He said in his heart with a feeling of shock.
"But what? Too much of your consideration. There is no perfect human being. There are only those who want to accept you for who you are." Ani said at length.
Tirta was still speechless, she started to not focus on her conversation.
"Why silence? If you're serious, apply before someone else." Said Ani again.
Tirta just laughed hearing Ani speak.
A soul mate never has a formula. Inner Tirta.
"An, sorry I came in first?" Said Tirta who then left his friend.
He was curious because he had seen Kevin in the blink of an eye.
Did I see wrong? Ah, nevermind. Bharata also doesn't know where. His inner.
Tirta then began to enter the hallways of reading books. He wanted to find an Islamic encyclopedia. Thick book with golden cover color. He remembered where the book was placed and without taking long he found it.
But when he was about to take the book, simultaneously there was another person's hand that grabbed it first so that he accidentally actually held the hand of a girl and not the book.
"Sorry, sorry." Tirta.
The girl then turned her head and made Tirta's heart almost stop.
"Mala." Tirta said when he found out that the girl in front of him was Nirmala.
As Nirmala turned back, her face looked extremely shocked. He saw Tirta standing right in front of him with a smile. Tirta looked closer and closer, making Nirmala's heart beat very fast.
Nirmala is now between Tirta's hands. Tirta looked at him without even turning her gaze the other way.
"Remember the sin of Tirta, not the muhrim. Don't look at me like that." Nirmala said to remind that looking at the opposite sex too long is prohibited.
Nirmala dared to say that because according to her, Tirta always acted pretentious.
"Astag." Said Tirta who then grabbed an Islamic encyclopedia book that was right above the head of Nirmala.
"I just want to take this." Tirta said while showing me a book.
Nirmala smiled and began to breathe a sigh of relief. He then turned around, as Nirmala was about to walk away from Tirta, Tirta suddenly pulled the ties of her hair. Her fine hair made it easier for Tirta to take off her hair pigtails with just one pull without hurting her, now her hair has become unraveled.
"Reverse." Said Nirmala trying to reach her hair pigtails in Tirta's hand.
"Why not just hijab, wouldn't it be safer?" Said Tirta starting to patronize Nirmala.
Nirmala remained silent, leaving Tirta without trying to take her keys back. He then sat right in front of Kevin who was seriously reading a business book.
"Eh, are you back?" Kevin said as he saw Nirmala sitting in front of him.
That feeling of her hair in pigtails, why is it now unraveling? But she's prettier with that kind of unraveling hair. Kevin's mind kept looking at Nirmala.
Meanwhile Nirmala just propped up her chin, occasionally glancing at Kevin.
"The book I'm looking for doesn't exist." Answer Nirmala.
"Oh, so." Kevin then closed the book he read.
Suddenly Nirmala saw Tirta who was in front of her, not far from where she was sitting. Tirta stood up while showing her pigtails and smiled wryly.
"What did you see?" Ask Kevin.
"No, don't you see anything?" Nirmala replied while shaking her head.
"So, do you want to go home or are you still here?" Kevin asked the same thing.
"home." Answer Nirmala briefly.
They left the library. Nirmala occasionally looked back and found that Tirta was still watching her with a wry smile while revealing her hair ties.
***
Nirmala and Kevin started getting into the car, they were sitting side by side. Kevin kept looking at Nirmala whose hair was unraveling.
"So you keep looking at me, is there anything weird?" asked Nirmala who shortly afterwards yawned and closed her mouth.
"Nothing strange." Said Kevin.
Nirmala began to tend her body, she felt very tired and sleepy. But his eyes are not closed.
"If you're sleepy, just sleep." Said Kevin.
"No, I'm not sleepy." Nirmala said in the wake of the vow again.
Kevin smiled at his behavior, Nirmala was sleepy. But he was still evasive, not long after that Nirmala really fell asleep. Seeing Nirmala fall asleep, Kevin then stopped his car and took off his suit for Nirmala to keep her from freezing.
After a few minutes of falling asleep, Nirmala opened her eyes and saw Kevin still focusing on driving.
"Kevin." Mala.
"Mala, are you awake?" Ask Kevin.
"Where are we?" Ask Nirmala.
Kevin just smiled and did not answer his question.
"If you are still sleepy, sleep again. The journey is still far." Kevin replied as he continued driving his car.
"You're okay I've been sleeping all the time?"
"It's okay, just sleep again."
"Kok quit?" Nirmala starts to get curious when Kevin suddenly stops his car.
"You said you had a good night."
"Geez, just want to say just use stop everything." Nirmala.
Kevin just smiled and drove back to his car. Nirmala could not help her sleepiness and she fell asleep again.
It's getting dark, but Kevin and Nirmala are still on the road. A crash in the capital is inevitable. Kevin who was still awake, occasionally looking at the face of Nirmala who was sleeping soundly, looks very sweet.
After passing through a fairly jammed night trip, they finally reached Nirmala's house. Kevin waited until Nirmala woke up, but Nirmala never woke up either. Kevin did not have the heart to wake him, his face looks very tired after a day around the city of Jakarta.
Mr. Slamet who was on guard then saw whose car had parked on the fence of his boss' house. Kevin who saw Pakde Slamet open the fence, then met him and said that Nirmala was asleep in the car.
Hearing the gate of his house open, Wulandari then came out. She thought her husband had come home, she was wrong. It wasn't her husband's car, it was Kevin's. Wulandari saw Kevin and Pakde Slamet standing in front of the fence.
"Kevin, what's wrong?" ask Wulandari, Nirmala's mother.
"Nirmala fell asleep in the car, Tan." Answer Kevin.
"In your car? Didn't she go out with her schoolmates this morning?" Wulandari looked a bit confused.
But he was even more confused to think of Nirmala falling asleep in Kevin's car. He could not wake her. Wulandari loved Nirmala very much and sometimes excessively. Even seeing her daughter sleeping in someone else's car, she couldn't bear to wake her.
They were silent, no one dared to wake her up. Kevin then took the initiative to carry her to the room.
"Can Kevin carry Nirmala to his room, Tan?" ask Kevin to Wulandari.
"Ah, yes so much better." Answer Wulandari.
Kevin held Nirmala and laid her on the bed. When Kevin turned his back, he found Nirmala's mother standing at Nirmala's bedroom door.
"Auntie." Said Kevin.
Wulandari.
"Aunty was also once held in her same papa as Nirmala when she was dating, but her papa Nirmala was more romantic than you." Wulandari.
Kevin was shocked and did not believe the sentence he heard.
Did Aunt Wulandari think I was dating Nirmala? Ask her in your heart.
"But no problem, you are also romantic with Mala." Wulandari said again.
Auntie hopes you won't be hurt after knowing the truth. Wulandari said in his heart.
"Tante could have, then Kevin went home first Aunty. And sorry to go home tonight."
"It's okay, greetings to your mom?"
"Yes tan, excuse me."
Kevin leaves Nirmala's house and returns to her house.
Wulandari then sat down beside her daughter. She looked at Nirmala's face, sometimes feeling guilty if she remembered the arranged marriage her husband had agreed to. Because he thinks that matchmaking is the same as destroying his daughter's life.
Nirmala should be able to choose her own soul mate, not determined by her father. His inner.
