Dusk At the End Please
End of Story

"Forgetting over time, sooner or later, like it or not, you'll eventually forget it. Thank you for teaching me the meaning of unrequited love"

Liani stared at the high gate where she practiced science for several years. He will leave this morning, the flight will be done exactly eleven o'clock this afternoon according to the schedule he has received in advance.

Liani deliberately left after dawn prayer, she rented an online taxi to the hotel where Shanum was staying, wanting to relax first with baby twins.

The distance that is not too far between the foundation and the hotel occupied by Shanum makes Liani until the state of the day is still dim, especially the road is still not too dense to make Liani travel smoothly.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Neng I've been in the hotel lobby. I just wait here yeah" Liani called Shanum explaining her current whereabouts after hearing Shanum answer her greetings,

"All right, I'm waiting here" Liani sat her body on the sofa in the hotel lobby,

"The true spirit that was about to leave" Liani who was focused on the flat screen in her grasp looked up as she heard the voice of someone speaking aimed at her,

"Oh, sir, are you awake? staying here too?" Liani smiled kindly as she found Ghifar already in front of her,

"No, I'm from the foundation's official house" Ghifar replied, folding his hands to his chest, standing still,

"Hah ..home office? Father from there?"

"Yes, why?" ask Ghifar relax, please,

"That I know that sir, it can be quite cost-effective" explained Liani with a slightly gouging face when talking about costs,

"What do you think is that if I get in the car I don't use that fare?" ketus Ghifar, he teased Liani as if he wanted to comfort her.

"Ishh ... when the assistant boss is still asking for payment, the goal is the same, right?" liani replied no less ketus, though,

"It was going to be invited, but I don't want you to be embarrassed because if you come for sure in my car to tear up after lamenting the gates of the foundation" Ghifar explained the reason why he did not invite Liani

As Liani waited for her online taxi in front of the gate of the foundation complex, Ghifar went out to pick up Akhtar and Shanum. Ghifar saw clearly how Liani stared at the gates of the foundation to tears.

Liani was stunned to hear what Ghifar said, she lowered her head silently making Ghifar turn her head and see what Liani was doing, liani was seen wiping the tip of her eyes which suddenly warmed up again to hear Ghifar's speech.

"If you want I can make a picture of the gate of the foundation complex with a large frame, or do you want me to send a photo of the chairman of the foundation?" ghifar's claw that saw Liani was still dissolved in his grief,

"Hishh.

"Haha..kirain has really moved Bu Guru's tea" goda Ghifar with his Sundanese accent,

"Reph ... " Liani exhaled her coarse breath,

"Well this is how the risk is, it was bound but not caught and finally hurt by the heart" muttered Liani slowly, but Ghifar could still hear it clearly. He looked at the girl with the broad veil deep, there was a sense of pity in his heart. Why girls as good as Liani should also feel the pain of loving without being loved,

"Wrong me too, it's too easy to fall in love just because you're being treated well" Liani continued blankly,

"Wrong is natural, which is not natural that does not want to learn from mistakes" as usual Ghifar can always make Liani calm, the girl turned her head and returned to reveal a smile on her lips.

"Yield...." fortunately Liani was able to change her cheerful look when Shanum came holding baby Izza and beside her Akhtar held baby Izzu with one hand because one hand was holding the wife's shoulder full of affection.

"Hay.hay..hay..baby twins..duuh aunty kangen very much" Liani gave a cheerful cry when she saw them coming, she welcomes Shanum's arrival and immediately tries to kiss Izza's baby but is stopped because Akhtar pulls Shanum back.

"That's...Father, I want to nyium baby Izza" said Liani who did not accept because she was forbidden to kiss the adorable baby.

"Doctor's words should not be kissed first, if you want to be a sling but be careful and remember not to kiss" said Akhtar, his possessive soul immediately appeared when it came to his son and wife.

"H Father, stingy very. Wanting to nyium dikit too" Liani paled with her wish, Shanum only smiled at the small quarrel between her husband and her best friend, while Ghifar only shook his head.

"Eat him a piece of marriage to make a baby himself" Akhtar still did not want to lose, since married to Shanum she was also more familiar with Liani.

"Ckk..it again, yes, yes later home from abroad I planned deh" said Liani relaxed, but his face dimmed when saying it, Liani said,

"Planning. execution bu execution" Akhtar still at home teasing his wife's friend, the,

"Neng, it looks like your husband since he became a father so have a new hobby deh, pumping people's hearts" Liani finally complained to Shanum who could only grin at her husband's behavior, Liani was,

"Because marriage is a blessing, turning the haram into halal, sin into a reward and turning maksiat into a reward, right, dear?" Akhtar asked Shanum's approval of his statement while raising his eyebrows. Shanum nodded his head while smiling in response to her husband.

"Yes yes who already enjoy getting married, congratulations to you. May you always be happy, after a heavenly life" concluded Liani ended their conversation, in the end Liani was very happy to see her best friend has now found her happiness after a long and winding struggle they went through.

Along with the arrival of Bu Fatimah and Bu Hana who will also take Liani to the airport, they rushed to the hotel parking lot. Since it was still quite early morning, they decided to have breakfast at the rest area.

☘️☘️☘️

While in another place, precisely at a hotel where he was staying, a young man was restless because he had been seen contacting someone through his phone and it seemed like his call was never connected.

Ahsan who is currently in Yogya because he has to attend the awarding night event held by a young businessman association is now pacing back and forth while trying to call someone.

Ghifar's name is clearly displayed on his screen, the call rang indicating that the number he was calling was active but unfortunately after five calls the person he was referring to did not receive his call.

Ahsan had to attend the event because he was nominated for a successful young entrepreneur with the innovation he launched at the company he now manages and he won the prestigious award.

Even though the company is owned by his uncle who is none other than the father of Akhtar, but Ahsan really has high integrity in carrying out his trust.

Unlimited totality may be the right slogan for him since trusted the uncle to manage his company. Until he forgets that there is someone who always waits for news from him, someone who never demands anything but his time and now someone finally gives up because he feels worthless again.

"Astaghfirulloh, why is everyone so hard to contact anyway?" Ahsan continued to grumble because the three people he contacted never answered his call or message. He only opened an email yesterday from his staff at the foundation regarding the state of the foundation report including the state data of educators later this month. And how surprised Ahsan was when he saw Liani's name plastered on the list of resigned educators.

Akhtar deactivated his device after receiving word from Ghifar that Ahsan had contacted Ghifar since then, believing that Ahsan would contact him. Akhtar thought it seemed like what his cousin was going to say was about Liani.

Ghifar also deliberately did not raise the call Ahsan who entered his goal, he will only lift it after making sure Liani has really left. While the third person Ahsan contacted was Mr. Arif who was the principal where Shanum taught who was also inactive.

Not without reason they both did. All this time though it looks unconcerned but Akhtar also paid attention to what happened between Ahsan and Liani as well as Ghifar.

Akhtar also had time to remind his cousin to be able to maintain what he almost grasped, at least give Liani certainty.

But his busy life as the director in his father's place seemed to have made Ahsan forget to make that commitment, he was too confident if the woman was too patient and loved him very much. He forgot that everyone has limitations.

Moreover, lately the presence of Suraya became one of Ahsan's triggers as if forgetting Liani, under the pretext of the affairs of the foundation Suraya seemed to aggressively approach his former lover without the man knowing and clearly it affects his relationship with Liani.

"Some people must be hit by loss first to open their eyes and hearts" Akhtar murmured in his heart after seeing the screen of Ghifar's device shown to him, as Ahsan continued to make calls.

Akhtar, who was sitting next to the wheel, glanced at each other with Ghifar, coding each other if this time it seemed like their mission had succeeded in giving their best friend a little lesson.

"True the saying, sometimes you have to disappear. In order for you to know how important it is for you" Ghifar said.

At about ten in the morning Ghifar's car arrived at the airport, there is still an hour for Liani to fly and used by Liani and Shanum to let each other miss and do'a that continues to be delivered for Liani's good there. The two of them will not meet for the next two years.

"You be careful there, take care of yourself. Straighten the intention, may the best always come to you" Shanum could not hold back his tears as well as Liani. They also cried together while hugging tightly.

"I'm sorry and don't get tired of praying it'll always be me" Liani and Shanum took off their arms, previously Liani had said goodbye to Bu Hana and Bu Fatimah who only drove until the departure lounge door. The two young grandmothers returned to the parking lot carrying baby twins accompanied by Ghifar while Shanum and Akhtar drove Liani inside.

"May Ahsan not regret his decision to release a woman as good as Liani" Shanum told her husband, shortly after taking Liani off. The two of them held hands at the plane Liani was riding on from the airport's large glass window.

"He already regretted it baby, it seems that now he is lamenting his mistake" Akhtar replied without turning his head,

"I mean Aa?" Shanum was surprised to hear her husband's answer,

"Honey, let my cousin mature in the circumstances he will face in the future. If losing had to be an intermediary he was aware of Liani's worth maybe it was better"

"So.." Shanum's speech paused when Akhtar gave the code not to continue his speech, saying,

"If they are a match, Allah will guard their hearts. This time let their do'a and destiny fight in the sky" Akhtar continued,

Shanum just smiled listening to what her husband said, she also agreed with her husband's statement.

"Aaah not afraid later Ahsan will be disappointed with Aa for not telling about Liani's departure?" ask Shanum, please,

"No, what is needed when disappointed is not only patient but it would be better to be aware. If losing makes him realize and get better why don't we take a stand on him. Hopefully after this he can appreciate more what he has. Instead of defending it was harder than grabbing it" Akhtar replied steadily, he clenched his arm around Shanum's shoulder

"Thank you Aa, I'm proud of you. Thank you for loving me so much. Your love taught me a lot about sincerity, caring, keeping commitments, and about how to value and treat love. Your love makes me exist and meaningful. Thank you for being a part of my soul" Shanum said sincerely,

Akhtar directed Shanum's body towards him, now they were facing each other.

"Darling, loving it is similar to seawater, the tides will always be there. But you have to remember that sea water never changes taste. And that's how my love for you, remains the same as it used to be even more only you are the one I see. Over time I even fell in love many times with the same woman that is you, Shanum Najua Azzahra" Akhtar also floated a warm and deep kiss on Shanum's forehead, yamg accepted Shanum by closing his eyes.

While inside the plane, Liani seemed to wipe the corner of her eyes. His gaze pointed at the blue sky with a white cloud visible from the window of the plane he was riding on.

"Sir Ahsan, goodbye. Thank you for making me learn and making me understand the limits of my abilities. So it must always be self-conscious if you want to love again" inner Liani.

The End's
