Gavin eats with Maria, Vera and Mak Ros. It was the first time he ate jengkol. Initially hesitated. But it turned out to be delicious too. Keep adding. Keinget Dodo. It does not feel wrong to wrap the jengkol menu. Plus grilled salted fish that turns out to be delicious. With spices made by Maria. It was unexpected that the salted fish changed so nicely.
"Nak Gavin's Boy?" ask Mak Ros.
"Yes Alhamdulillah yummy Mak," replied Gavin.
"Yes delicious, it was made by Sister Maria with secret spices," said Vera.
Gavin looked at Maria. Jeez her eyes focused instead on Mary's sexy lips and chest.
"Astagfirullah, my mind is slovenly again," Gavin said.
"Sister Mary is beautiful, she has seen the tar of sin" said Vera.
"Eh yes," said Gavin.
Maria was embarrassed.
"Such different Maria and Vera, rich lightning equal air. One was noisy, the other was silent, there was no sound, "gavin's mind.
Mary just sat there and ate. But Vera and Mak Ros have spoken many times. Same with Gavin.
"Son Gavin let's go again, it's still there" said Mak Ros.
"Yes Mak, thank you" replied Gavin.
"Let's not hesitate, in your house there must be no fish jukol asikan?" said Vera.
"Yes, this is the first time I ate salted fish and jengkol, it turned out to be delicious," replied Gavin.
"From now on you will eat this often" said Vera.
"really?" Gavin excitement.
"Yes, there's Maria's sister who will cook it" replied Vera.
Gavin looked straight at Maria. Although Maria looked down. That beautiful and quiet girl was indeed charming. Physically satisfy his eyes and lust. But he was not sure of his feelings that he had just broken his heart. There was still a taste left for Humaira.
"Don't Gavin seriously want to marry Maria?" ask Mak Ros.
"Yes Mak" Gavin replied without hesitation.
"Maybe there's no harm in me marrying Maria, who knows she can heal my heart's wounds" said Gavin.
"Mom, Mary comes in first" said Mary to move out of the dining room.
"Have you finished eating?" ask Mak Ros.
"Already" answered Mary.
"Sister, here is napa, there is Gavin's future husband brother," said Vera.
Maria just smiled faintly. Then left the dining table, went into his room.
"Son Gavin sorry, Maria is shy and quiet" said Mak Ros.
"It's okay" replied Gavin.
"Calm down, Sister Maria is, indeed" said Vera.
Gavin nodded.
"But you won't marry Maria, she's very nice" said Vera.
"Yes, relax" replied Gavin. He was sure he would marry Maria. It might be a challenge for her to solve the mystery of why Maria's future husband always dies.
"Sir Gavin, we are like this, living in a hut, unlike you who might live in a more comfortable place" Mak Ros said.
"I'm just happy to be here, there are other experiences that I feel" Gavin replied.
"What other experiences is Gavin?" ask Mak Ros.
"This salty and jengkol fish, Alhamdulillah delicious Mak," said Gavin. He again enjoyed foreign fish and jengkol stew with warm white rice.
"We are different castes Gavin, you have to convince your family, do they want to accept Sister Maria?" ask Vera.
"God willing, this weekend I want to bring Mary home" replied Gavin.
"Amin, hopefully smoothly and according to plan," said Mak Ros.
"Alhamdulillah, may you be the soul mate of Sister Maria" added Vera.
"Amin" said Gavin.
"Son Gavin's rumors are circulating here, about Maria, is Nak Gavin able to accept Maria for who she is?" ask Mak Ros. The name of the unlucky carrier to Mary always heats the ears. Mak Ros doesn't want Gavin to be half-hearted. He should know whether the young man is seriously asking for his daughter or not.
"God willing I can accept Mary as she is" said Gavin.
"Say the same beauty Kak Maria" said Vera.
"Well, that's one of them" said Gavin. Not wanting to lie to himself. Normal men would be interested in Maria. Gavin first saw Maria because of her beautiful face and her beautiful body. Even if it's just eyes. His heart is still wounded.
"No problem, all normal men are like that" Mak Ros said in defense of Gavin.
"That's a normal guy" said Gavin.
"Well, normal man, if I throw a bag to the north pole to freeze there" said Vera.
Mak Ros smiled. Vera is absolutely blunt when she talks. He always spoke as he felt. In contrast to Mary more silent and harboring.
"Thank you, Son Gavin wants to marry Maria, hopefully this is the last and happy one" said Mak Ros. Eyes glazed. Recall the story of the blight of her daughter's wedding plans due to the death of her future husband who has been several times. Mak Ros is desperate. Is it possible that Maria could meet her soul mate after all that happened.
"Sama-sama Mak, it is precisely Gavin who is grateful to be able to ask for Maria" said Gavin.
"Well, if the equipment is outside, enough Sister Maria!" threatening Vera to raise a fist at Gavin.
"God willing, I am faithful, Mary is enough!" sahut Gavin's. I'm sick of the raw bogem from Vera.
After eating Gavin came home. But Mary is still inside.
"You want to be called Sister Maria?" ask Vera.
"Don't let him rest" replied Gavin.
"OK," said Vera.
"Don't play here" said Mak Ros.
"Yes Mak" said Gavin.
Gavin's footsteps left the dining room. Out of the house. Put his shoes back on. She accidentally saw Mary at the window.
"The beauty of Mary, like the princess in the tower, I will set you free, you will see the beautiful outside world" Gavin said. He knew Mary's inner pressure which was considered a pesky carrier made him more at home. Shut yourself in the room. Gavin stands. He walked over to Mary who was standing in front of the open window of her room.
"Mary" said Gavin.
Maria was embarrassed.
"Last week I want to introduce you to my family, wait for me to pick you up" Gavin said.
Maria nodded. Stay down.
"Until we meet at Maria's weekend" Gavin said.
Maria just nodded with a look.
"Assalamu'alaikum" said Gavin.
"Wa'alaikumsallam" said Maria.
Gavin walked out of the place. Maria just looked at Gavin's departure. Behind her, Vera patted Maria on the shoulder.
"Sister of your future priest," said Vera.
Maria just kept quiet and said nothing. Keep looking ahead.

That afternoon Alex and Sophia sat in bed and relaxed. Sophia rested her head on Alex's shoulder. Alex's hand held the emerald owner's hand. As if I didn't want to be away from him. They enjoyed the afternoon watching television. Coincidentally the show they were watching was the news show Neutral News TV. The news aired a car that fell into the Kalimalang river. Alex knew instantly that it was his car.
"Darling, that's not our car?" ask Alex to make sure he gets back.
"Yes, our car" replied Sophia.
"Wait, Lukikan took him," said Alex.
"Oh my God, let's not happen to Luki Mas" Sophia said anxiously.
"We heard the news first" said Alex.
Sophia nodded. Listen to the news again.
"Thank God, Luki's safe" Alex said.
"Yes Mas, Alhamdulillah" Sophia said.
"It's a good thing that we got in Luki's car, if it's not possible that Luki's going to happen to us, where you're pregnant, Alhamdulillah Luki is mediating help from Allah SWT," Alex said.
"True Mas, Allah is Protecting His servants, in various ways that we do not know including through Luki," Sophia said.
"I called Luki first, baby" Alex said.
Sophia nodded.
Alex kissed Sophia's forehead. Smothering stomach. He was grateful that his wife and child in his womb survived.
Alex got out of bed. Take the phone over the drawer. Walk to the balcony of his room. He was standing on the edge of the balcony calling Luki.
"Assalamu'alaikum" said Alex.
"Wa'alaikumsallam Boss Alex," said Luki.
"Thank you for your help, if you hadn't exchanged cars with me, my wife and I would have been in danger" Alex said.
"Yes Alex's boss is the same" Luki replied.
"Luki what happened to my car? Why lose control?" ask Alex.
"The brakes are blong Boss," Luki replied.
"Maybe, my car has just been serviced and this morning I had time to revise it myself" said Alex.
"I don't know why, obviously the car brakes went blank" Luki said.
"You know something?" ask Alex.
"Know what Alex's boss means?" ask Luki back.
"You were in the square at the right time, and traded your car with me. Luki I'm not a fool, tell me what you know!" alex's Word.
Deg
Luki's speechless. Alex asked a question that would be difficult for him to answer. He knew Alex must have been suspicious because his car had just been serviced and he had just revised it himself, of course he knew very well the condition of the brakes.
