Waiting for the Love of the Country
Chapter 88. Jogjakarta

The journey of Magelang-Jogjakarta is enough to make the body of Gisya and children tired. Along the way they fell asleep, while Febri dissolved in his own mind. Zaydan understood the feelings of his future wife, he clasped Febri's hand tightly.

"Are you still hesitant to marry me? Can't you accept my presence?" tanya Zaydan broke Febri's daydream.

Febri stared at her future husband, returning Zaydan's grasp.

"It's not easy for me, Mom. Please always reassure me, if I never get it wrong to choose you to be my life partner" said Febri.

"Mas will always convince you, thank you for accepting me. I love you Nursyifa Febriani. And I'm sure of it." Zaydan insisted.

"I know Mas, give me time to return the word of love from you" said Febri with a smile that was able to calm Zaydan's heart.

They arrived in Jogjakarta, precisely in Ruko which had been occupied by Febri. Yuliana rounded her eyes, when she saw the bustling shophouse by the visitors.

"Waw, its so amazing! Gilak you, Biw! Very cool to open a store this big and crowded! I'm proud, for whatever I'm proud of!" yuliana pinched Febri's cheek.

"sick! Just play the pinches, let's go in!" invite Febri to hold Gisya's hand.

"But! Caca is in a trailer, I'm not a fool!" yuliana sulked.

"Abis you're a prankster, by the way, wae!" pissed Febri.

"This is tea in Jogja, ni Endonesaan atuu Biw." whispered Yuliana.

Gisya shook his head at the debate between his two best friends. Febri introduced them to his employees one by one.

"This is Ayu, she and her husband who have been helping me to develop all these efforts. Without him, I might not have gone forward as I am now" Febri said.

"Mbak Ebiw can do it, everyone. I'm Ayu, if Cyra usually calls me auntie Ayu. Hopefully at home during here, if you need anything can contact Ayu. As long as there is Ayu everything must be in order." said Ayu introduced himself like an advertisement.

Yuliana, who is humorous in fact, is very enthusiastic to introduce herself. He felt that Ayu was indeed one kind with him.

"Thank you Ayu, for taking good care and accompanying our best friend. Oh yes, my name is Yuliana, commonly called Teh Ulil. I'm the mother of these two twin boys, their names are Alan and Alana. Please help her to keep them as long as we're here huh, auntie Ayu" Yuliana said in a contrived voice.

"Sorry Ulil Tea, I really want the name of the product Pucuk Tea yes" said Ayu Polo.

"I am indeed Ayu's tenacious Queen!" yuliana answered that made them laugh.

Really in his heart, Gisya grateful if his friend is much loving. Especially when Febri was away from them.

"This beautiful and graceful Little Sister, what is her name?" tanya Ayu pointed at Gisya.

"Ih Ayu! The turn she is said to be beautiful and graceful, my turn is beverage products!" yuliana. Ayu laughed at the sulking Yuliana.

"Sorry Ulil Tea, I guess we're one species! There is no grace." replied Ayu.

"Hmm yeah! But our habitat is different, yes, I'm a surabi you are a bakpia." said Yuliana who made them laugh more loudly.

"Udah ah! So want to wet the bed later! Hii Ayu, my name is Gisya commonly called Caca. These are my two children, Quera and Husain. Please help Ayu, sorry if during here we will be a lot of trouble Ayu." said Gisya gently.

"MashaAllah, this one Bunada talks to make the heart cool." said Ayu.

"Bunada? What? Mother kalii, she will be called Mother." said Yuliana.

"Ih, not Ulil Tea! Bunada is the mother of two children, meaning only Mother Febri yes the bunatu. Hopefully after marriage, so bunada ya Mbak." said Ayu while holding the hand of his superior.

Febri, Gisya and Zaydan shook their heads when they heard the conversation between the two species before them.

"The rock? Mother child one does she mean?" ask Yuliana to Ayu.

"Picture, Ulil Tea. Pinter ngedadak ya that." said Ayu with the tone medhoknya.

"You're wrong, Ayu. Febri is bunatu, I am bunada, well the Caca is bunaga! People he again bunting, means tuh the harvest into the storage." said Yuliana.

"Wow, great Caca Tea! Still young is already a bunaga, Ayu dong Teh foot-inject. Said people in ancient times, if the person who is not pregnant continues to be injected with the same feet that are pregnant he said will be pregnant nular" Ayu told Gisya.

"Hahahaha, there are! Berdo'a Ayu, don't ask to be stepped on the foot." Yuliana Ledek.

"There's Ulil Tea! It's just chaos." annoyed Ayu.

Although it was their first meeting, but Ayu was easy to mingle with his boss's friends. Zaydan has returned to his official home. The children fell asleep very fast, even they had not had time to play at all. Probably because of their first long trip. The atmosphere of Jogja was hot, Gisya could not sleep especially her husband was not beside her. Gisya took her cell phone and contacted her husband.

"Assalamualaikum angel from heaven Dad," said Fahri.

"Walaikumsalam, Mother Kangeeeennn very much with Dad! Can't be bobo, what's Dad there?" ask Gisya.

"That's kangen! Dad's the same Uqi, Bun. Intentionally he stuck here, because at home there is Ina again nginep nemenin Bunda." replied Fahri.

"Eh next month get married, tell me not to meet much!" gisya.

"Yeeee! Dipingit mah entaran aja bumil, do not stay in Jogja. No one takes care of Uqi's wedding needs." said Syauqi interjected.

"It won't be long, if the marriage proposal Ebiw has finished we go home" replied Gisya.

"Well he said two weeks, Bun?" ask Fahri.

"That's a fool, Ulil, Dad. Kan the Baba brags again Birthday, so let him give you that surprise." replied Gisya.

"What's the basis of an absurd couple, kids don't fuss Bun?" ask Fahri.

"No, Dad. Aman they mah, let alone there is aunti Ayu. He's a fun person, so the kids get to play with him" said Gisya.

"Thank God, Bun. Kids are never fussy, yes. Be careful brother, he can't run and cape-cape yet. Mother also, can not be soy sauce." stressed Fahri.

"Yes dear father, jaudah Mommy is starting to sleepy. Dad, don't stay up with Malik, apple tomorrow morning, right?" gisya reminded.

"Yes my dear wife, my wife's beautiful dream. Love you more and more." said Fahri.

"Love you to, Surgaku." replied Gisya.

End Call

Gisya's intention to sleep he undo, he approached Febri who was sitting in the balcony. Staring at the beautiful scenery in Jogja, the breeze that blows adds to the atmosphere more comfortable. Gisya followed Febri who was enjoying a gust of wind while closing his eyes.

"Jogjakarta is beautiful, it's not wrong that you escaped here Biw" said Gisya.

"Allahuacbar! You are not getting in Ca! You have long since caught the Ulil!" pissed Febri.

"Hehehe, sorry My shrimp!" gisya said embracing Febri.

Febri took a slow breath, he started telling Gisya everything.

"Jogjakarta is the dream place for me and Mas Andi. We are planning to live here. Mas Andi's series of dreams have slowly begun to be realized, Ca. This gift shop is one of his dream ventures. Diza is a combination of the names of her parents Mas Andi and her brother. Mas Andi, Kak Ardi, Papa Budi and Mama Zalfa. I am also building a mosque, which will be a charity for Mas Andi and his family" Febri said, shedding tears.

Gisya hugged her best friend very tightly, really Gisya did not expect if all that Febri did to fulfill all the dreams of her late husband.

"Stupid, death and sustenance no one knows, Biw. I'm proud you can do it all yourself. You are a strong woman, Mas Andi and his family must be happy in Heaven there. Continue all your dreams, but do not forget Mas Zaydan. Let him know everything you do, because after marriage God is with your husband" Gisya reminded.

"Does Mas Zaydan not mind, Ca?" ask Febri.

"He loves you, doesn't he? He will accept every decision you make, Biw. He will feel more appreciated if you want to be open with him" said Gisya.

"Thank you, Ca. I feel more relieved to tell you everything" said Febri hugging Gisya.

"That's what friends are for, Biw. Me and Ulil will always be there for you, never feel alone. I go in first, you sleepy! You don't stay out for long, you catch a cold" said Gisya leaving Febri.

Febri looked far ahead, he hugged himself while enjoying the wind.

"In every corner of Jogja brings its own story for its visitors. Just like I had a dream story with you Mas Andi. Let me always go home, pull over for a moment to find my happiness. If Prambanan Temple is witness to the unrequited power of love from Bandung Bondowoso on Roro Jonggrang. So Jogja is a witness that I still love you until now Mas Andi. I'll make all our dreams come true here in Jogjakarta." Inner Febri.
