Dusk At the End Please
Untying

The big event at the foundation has ended. Along with that, the end of the year holiday begins. Over the next two weeks the entire teaching and learning activity will be closed.

All educators who live in official homes are allowed to return to their respective homes during the holidays.

The closing night of the event ended with a photo with all the committee and the leadership of the foundation.

All rejoicing, the event went smoothly and successfully. They are optimistic that under the leadership of the new chairman of the foundation will be more advanced.

The age and spirit of the chairman of the foundation are in harmony with his ingenuity and expertise in leading. The aura of the leader and his charisma is no less than his predecessor.

The entire foundation is now talking about him. Who is not fascinated by the young figure that is now the fruit of the lips.

Handsome, well-established, knowledgeable, generous and faithful of course.

The perpect!

Dambaan girls to be his priest.

Mom's dream to be her ex.

The success of the event held last night was appreciated by the foundation. The dissolution of the committee will be held three days in the future, and held at Pangandaran Beach.

Shanum chose to go back to Bogor first. Remembering a few days ago his father asked him to go home because there are important things that must be discussed together, he said.

This morning he was preparing. Takes care of the things he needs to carry. Shanum didn't bring much stuff because he'll be back soon.

Tok.....

The sound of knocking on the door stopped Shanum's activities, he moved towards the front room to open the door.

Liani came with a bag of crackles in her hand, believed to be the breakfast she brought for her best friend.

"Assalamu'alaikum", said Liani nyelonong went inside without waiting for the occupants of the house to invite him.

"Wa'alaikumssalam", Shanum answered Liani's greeting while closing the door of his official house.

Shanum looked at Liani's back who was walking ahead of him. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Prepare for an investigation from Liani.

"I brought you breakfast, from last night you haven't eaten. I'm sure at this time the worms in your stomach must be in the demo" said Liani flat.

Shanum just nodded, he took the plate and spoon for the two of them.

Enjoying breakfast in silence feels strange to Shanum, usually there are always things that Liani tells you when together like this.

Shanum understood, his best friend was sulking. Last night Liani continued to follow Shanum asking for an explanation about his relationship with Akhtar. But Shanum just kept dodging.

To be honest, Shanum was unable to close his eyes last night, tiredness and sleepiness just knocked out at the thought of his meeting with Akhtar.

He was inexhaustible, could-can Akhtar judging him as unfaithful. Though himself who returned with the status of prospective husband of people.

Shanum had thought about it, maybe it was time for Liani to find out her story with Akhtar. He was quite aware of his position, without being asked would retreat by himself. Instead of staying away is better than being hurt, that is the art of frying fish.hehe..

"Num, is there anything you want to explain to me?", Liani finally started the conversation. Where strong he long silenced Shanum.

Shanum smiled broadly at his best friend who was covered in marketing.

"There's Li. Sorry, I wasn't ready last night. Tired too, right?!" ask Shanum back.

"Yes, sorry ..semalem I can't sleep thinking you, I don't think it turns out that there's a lot I don't know about you too many surprises" said Liani.

Shanum smiled, seeing his best friend had returned to his original mode he was relieved. He was not happy to let his friend dissolve in his anger.

Liani took another deep breath, letting oxygen fill her lungs before she spoke.

"I've been waiting for someone 10 years ago, he declared his love and a year later decided to leave. Without news."

Shanum sighed pausing his words...

"Either I am the high end of loyalty or too stupid man, but I am happy waiting for him."

"There is hope that I paint at every twilight while waiting for him. I always assured my heart that he would come with his dream that had come true."

"Our relationship is short, there is not much interaction.but every time we go through is very meaningful. He's the second man to occupy a special place in my heart after Father."

Shanum lowered his head, feeling the immense tightness in his chest as he said that. Trying to resist the fall of the water from the corner of his eye. But no doubt, the defense collapsed...

Sobbing could no longer hold back her tears...

"Heuh heuh.he's Li, he's the one I've been waiting for, '" Shanum sobbed in his tears.

"Num.", Liani approached and hugged Shanum.

"He's Akhtar Li, Akhtar Farzan Wijaya." ..heuheueheu....Shanum was no longer able to hold back his cries.

Liani was shocked, she shook her head. Can't believe what he just heard. It was fitting all this time that Shanum took care of his heart. But again he grimaced, imagining how his best friend felt last night when he saw the person he had been waiting for so far with other women.

Shanum was crying in Liani's arms. Liani joined in tears to see her best friend so hurt, Shanum who was strong and always cheerful now no longer looks, he looks so fragile and tired.

"It was my feet that stepped on Li, but why was my heart tired........

"I never complained this whole time. It's okay to wait a long time in waiting. Believe he's coming......

"But it turns out I'm just a stopover. Turns out I'm not the end of her search, Li"

"I believe Li, loyalty is not measured by the amount of time you spend together, but the ability to guard your heart when you're not on your side. I've been able to Li, I've been guarding the heart all this time....

"Love and loyalty are tested when time and distance separate and only trust is able to sustain it. I believe Li, all this time I believed him...

"He should have said from the beginning that if he no longer had the taste, at least don't make me wait." hikhikhik.....

Shanum continued to let out his heart in Liani's arms. Liani let him, right now this was all she could do for her best friend. Be next to him and be a good listener.

An hour passed, Shanum looked calmer. He can regain control of himself.

Decomposing her embrace from Liani, she moved towards the toilet. Wash your face with ablution.

"Li, is it Dhuha?" Shanum asked.

Liani still looked carried away, she was silent her gaze was sad. Looking at Shanum who was wearing a mukena.

"Li, Dhuha?" Bring Shanum

Liani flinched, quickly she walked to the toilet. Take ablution and follow Shanum.

After performing the dhuha prayer, Shanum felt more peaceful. He could control his emotions. He realized that everything that happened to him was arranged by the Almighty.

Shanum took a deep breath, exhaling slowly.shalat is always the solution. The heart feels calmer.

Calmness is the initial solution that God presents for every problem we face.

As in the Qur'an Allah says "Make patience and prayer your help. Verily, that is heavy except for those who are solemn." 

(Q.L. Al-Baqarah:45)

God commands us to be patient and pray as our help. In the face of any affairs or difficulties, patience and refrain from things that are not good with prayer is the most effective solution.

"I'm sorry Li, I talk too much" Shanum said.

"Father Num, sometimes we do not tell stories to find solutions, but there are times when we seek relief" Liani replied sincerely.

"Thank you Li, you're a real listener, huh....." Shanum has returned to show his cheerfulness.

Dissolve in sadness and destitution will only harm yourself. The time is too precious, currently maintaining the body's immunity is much more important.

"I'm Num, I can be a good listener for you. Even though I can't come up with the best solution to your problem. But, I'm sorry Num if I say it too early.Maybe it's time for you to really open your eyes, ears and heart. The world is vast Num, not just about Akhtar. There are still people who are obviously privileging you. Try to accept all the treatment with a different taste, no longer just a colleague or friend, but as an adult male." Liani spoke at length, hoping that her best friend could move on soon.

Shanum closed his eyes, momentarily conditioning his mind which was still overshadowed by last night's events.

"Receiving someone to be a part of our lives is not an easy job. It takes process, it takes faith and there has to be courage. But there's something heavier, Li...." Shanum paused his words, Liani swiftly watched.

" Letting go of someone who's been a part of our lives, who we finally know is the best option for everything."

Shanum exhaled heavily, as if wanting to take off his chest while saying all that.

Liani hugged Shanum again, she knew her best friend was still not okay.
