Three days have passed without feeling and the invitation that awaited Niken never arrived. Niken glanced at his friends who were busy talking about the wedding party Nabila will do tomorrow. Niken listened by hand scrolling the phone screen. Just close and open the social media app without actually reading it.


"Sir, you called Nabila, right?" ask Cindy who is leaning on the balcony. Currently they are gathering upstairs, enjoying Tuesday night by gathering with fellow boarding house friends.


"Udah," Niken lied. He does not want his friends to think no-no about him and Nabila if Niken tells the truth.


"Whose love, Nik? Same Bayu huh? Together we-we aja, rame-rame," asked Ayu who was influenced by others.


"You want to come from the morning, Nik, join mein ijab kabul?" Another question came because Niken was silent not responding to their call.


"No ah, I'd like to come with my High School friends" Niken lied again.


Go with Bayu? Niken chuckles in his heart. Bayu will certainly be present sooner with the others because he will shake the hand of Nabila's father and pledge sacred life.


Niken breathed a tired breath. Tired of heart, soul and body. His love story had to end this way.

"So mama was present at the wedding of the mama's ex-fiancee?" ask Marcel grimly.


"Not present?" seductive Niken while putting his index finger on his chin as if he was thinking.


"Oh this mama" Marcel pouted. Niken laughed at the behavior of his youngest son.


"Wood and Nabila really have a relationship behind mom?" Marsya who had been silent had asked questions as well.


"You know what?"


Marsya and Marcel compactly nodded.


"You want to know, just keep telling your mama's story!"

"Crazy!" Dengus Juna that morning when Niken accidentally came to his house to ask for help or rather coercion.


"Come on Jun, meet me," whined Niken while shaking Juna's arm that was drying her hair with a towel. He just finished his shower.


"You're not invited by Nik! You're not ashamed to be an uninvited guest."


"Wildamah! They should have been ashamed, stabbing me in the back" Niken murmured as he threw his body on the bed.


Juna put on his t-shirt and hung a towel behind the door. He sat in the study chair and looked at Niken who was grumbling in front of him.


"How you been dating this whole time, Nik? How could your boyfriend be close to the same one that he says your best friend but you don't know" said Juna.


Juna snorted, "Okay, I've been waiting for the night but I don't want to cry until you cry let alone dirty my clothes with snot and tears."


Niken immediately exclaimed in delight as soon as Juna agreed to her invitation. Already from earlier he whined and finally Juna collapsed as well.


Niken deliberately yesterday overtime until night so that today can be off work without burdened with his work. Niken went home to her mother's house and told her all the upset she was having. Her mother cried and hugged Niken tightly. Never thought his son's fate would be like this.


He canceled his wedding plans 3 months before the reception and the former fiancee married his best friend. Mama Niken is afraid that her child is not strong enough to bear the mental burden and end up depressed.


Once finished spilling his heart to his mother, Niken immediately fled to Juna's house and whined to accompany him to the wedding of Nabila and Nabayu Aditama.


"Well, what's the gift, Nik?" goda Juna when he saw Niken pensively staring at the window of his room.


"Baby equipment gift. Let her know I know she's pregnant. Let's accompany me to find baby gifts at Ahong's store."


Niken moved and immediately dragged Juna to go with him to the Ahong store. Ahong's shop was not far from their home. The store sold everything that was needed in the household. From newborns to dead people.


"Don't ride a motorcycle," prevent Niken once Juna will ride his motorcycle.


Juna looked at Niken and frowned, "Why?"


"It's gonna be hard to bring the card."


"Aren't you going to buy baby equipment? How hard is it to carry? It's easy! Stay in the crackle."


"Ck, no, no matter what the hard thing is. I haven't been in a car in a long time, since papa's car was sold" joked Niken.


Juna clucked but still obeyed Niken's order to bring a car. I don't know what things the spoiled kid will buy. Juna was only able to obey his orders. Even if it is free, it will still lose.

Tonight Niken looks graceful with the modern kebaya outfit she wears. Mama Niken had forbidden her son to attend the party but Niken forced her to leave, dear with a gift that had already been purchased, that was the reason expressed by Niken. Finally mama Niken just resigned and helped polish his son's face to look enchanting and make the prospective ex-daughter-in-law regretted having dumped his son.


Juna himself looks cool with the color of the shirt that matches the kebaya worn by Niken and is now leaning on the car waiting for Niken to wear his high heels. They hunt for couple clothes after wandering around looking for gifts that until now Juna is still shaking his head when he sees it. The gift is now neatly stored in the trunk of his car.


After saying goodbye to mama Rumila, they immediately glided to the house of Nabila. Niken was nervous but not spoken to Juna. Niken is shy, Juna will definitely mock her for recklessly going to the party of the former. Arriving at the residence Nabila, there were already many invitations present. Niken got out of the car and ordered Juna to bring her prepared gift.


Juna snorted and kept taking down the baby carriage they had bought from the Ahong store.


Yes baby carriage!


Niken gave a baby carriage gift without wrapping it or closing it with something. Plastered clearly in front of all the invited guests Niken holding the arm of Juna who was pushing a baby carriage decorated with ribbons. Let them know that it's not a baby carriage.


Juna thickens the face. He remembered when there were theater activities when they were in High School. He who was scrolling through Niken's pink suitcase and got an amused glance from all Hang Tuah students and now he feels like he is repeating the incident. The difference is now that he is pushing a baby carriage not a pink suitcase anymore.
