Dusk At the End Please
A Beautiful Day

Green tea plants appear to reflect light because of the bright sunlight that morning. Wind gusts slowly swaying the higher tree foliage of the tea plants in the plantation area add to the refreshing morning coolness.

The beautiful scenery that spoils the eye as if to witness the meeting of two people who harbored a sense of separation by a distance of several months. Now they stand side by side staring at the beautiful expanse of tea plants in the plantation.

Shanum flinched as someone spoke in the back with a familiar voice in his ear. A man with a simple appearance but actually increasingly show perfection, Simplicity is perfection.That means simplicity is precisely perfection is the right sentence to describe his current appearance.

Simple hoodie jacket combined with stylish skinny pants. A style that looks relaxed but makes the man look cooler. For a moment Shanum was flabbergasted to find his presence. His eyes stared deeply, scanning the man from top to bottom.

"Why? surprised I'm here?" the man's question suddenly spread the focus of Shanum who was still scanning the person in front of him now.

Shanum immediately turned his face and body in the other direction to hide his surprise seeing the man he had always longed for was now in front of him.

The man's current appearance reminded him of his past memories. Her dress style today is exactly the same as when she was a teenager. Akhtar is known to always wear a hoodie jacket when relaxing because of the cold Garut air, he said, that used to be the reason Akhtar a few years ago when he was still living in Garut in his teenage years that he passed with the beauty of teenage love I don't know the reason today.

"Absmacked to see how I look today?" Akhtar again asked Shanum a question that contained a sweetness, his lips filled with a smile that was a sign of happiness.

Shanum took a deep breath, this man always managed to make his chest tight. His heart was racing faster than after the exercise.

"Sorry, who are you? Is there anything I can help you with? shanum's question in a serious tone made Akhtar's smile disappear instantly.

Deg. His breathing choked, hearing Shanum's unreasonable question in his opinion.

Akhtar looked at Shanum with an expression that was difficult to decipher. While being stared at only shows a flat facial expression.

"Sha..Sha.num, you don't joke, not funny" Akhtar again spoke with a little stammering and intonation rising. He was shocked to hear Shanum question who he was.

Shanum only returned Akhtar's gaze, he still silenced his mouth and was still at home with his flat facial expression. Akhtar's shocked face mixed with worry and Shanum greatly enjoyed the expression as he looked at it.

Akhtar who saw Shanum had not yet responded to his question grew even more panicked.

"Shanum, Shanum Najua Az-Zahra?" he said again with a little bit of intonation.

"Yes?..I'm Shanum, you?" shanum replied, asking in a serious tone.

"I'm Akhtar, Shanum. Akhtar, Akhtar Farzan Wijaya" replied Akhtar who began to get emotional.

"Ouh.." Shanum replied briefly.

Shanum's reply made Akhtar even more shocked. What's wrong with Shanum, why doesn't he recognize her.

"Oh what?" ask Akhtar in wonder.

"Akhtar who is it?" ask Shanum again.

"I'm Akhtar, Shanum. We used to be lovers, we once promised to pray for each other so that we would be fooled. I keep it, even until now at the end of my prostration do'a so that we are fooled always spoken sincerely", Akhtar replied by expressing his heart.

The atmosphere was silent for a while, Shanum was still standing upright staring straight ahead. The answer he heard only made his heart become more and more unwary. His heart was even beating faster.

Intentions want to prank Akhtar because of his sudden arrival and make him back to the heart sport turned out to even more shake his heart which several months has begun to calm down.

Akhtar was still standing beside him and kept looking at Shanum question mark. His heart beat faster, fear and worry clearly adorned his face. Afraid that Shanum really doesn't remember who he is. Worried about Shanum's situation, what's wrong with him? What's been going on with him lately?

From the reports of his men, he was informed that Shanum had been fine, always living his days with enthusiasm and cheer.

Akhtar has always been watching Shanum, given Raina and Suraya's treatment of Shanum some time ago Akhtar was very worried about him. He decided to have his confidants on special duty watch over Shanum and report on him every day.

Not only was Raina afraid to hurt Shanum again, but all this she did was because Ahsan was already impossible to do. Akhtar knew that Ahsan had been guarding Shanum. That's why he let Shanum go with his cousin.

A few days after his departure to Surabaya, Ahsan applied for leave of absence to the college where he taught. He applied for leave for the next semester on the grounds that he wanted to help his father solve his case, nor did he have to leave his mother alone under these circumstances. As the only son Ahsan knew enough of himself for that.

The last information Akhtar received from Ahsan was about the development of his father's case that there was a chance to be parole, on condition that he report daily about the father's activities. But that alone was not enough for Ahsan. He wanted to make sure his father had to be completely free, and what he was accused of was sheer slander. Ahsan knew very well who his father was, his integrity and credibility in charge need not be doubted. Ahsan kept trying to find a way out to prove that the father was innocent. He wants to give back his father's good name.

Until one day someone offers Ahsan help to free his father and return to clear his good name. Of course Ahsan welcomed this offer, with joy he came to the person who was none other than Suraya's father who was the superior of Ahsan's father.

At first Ahsan only considered what Suraya's parents did was limited to the kindness of a superior to subordinates or because they had been good friends all along.

But behind all the goodness they offer, there is a shrimp behind the stone. After revealing his intention to help Ahsan's father, Suraya's father also made a requirement. He will help free Ahsan's father and re-clean his name on the condition that Ahsan is willing to marry Suraya.

Until now Akhtar has not known the continuation of news about Ahsan and Suraya. He only knew that his uncle was free and back on the move.

'I lost, pick Shanum!'

Akhtar did not want to delay again today he deliberately emptied his schedule to see Shanum and make sure he was okay.

From the corner of his eyes Shanum could see Akhtar's worried facial expression.

"Hahaha....." Shanum's laughter suddenly broke, he could no longer bear to see Akhtar's behavior like that, his expression Akhtar's face like that looked very funny in Shanum's eyes.

Akhtar was still frozen in place, he still did not know what he should do in response to the attitude of the woman before him.

"Why? surprised?" shanum Syndir.

"Huh?" Akhtar looked nervously in response to Shanum's question.

"Hahaha.." Shanum laughed again at Akhtar's expression.

"You....?" akhtar's speech stopped.

"What?" Shanum asked back, seeing Akhtar stop his words.

"You know me?" ask Akhtar.

"Yes" Shanum replied briefly, he nodded his head without looking towards Akhtar.

"Guuhh." Akhtar exhaled violently, throwing all the tightness in his chest, having been hit by Shanum.

She was really scared that Shanum would forget her. He won't be ready for it.

"You are, really", Akhtar shook his head while throwing tea leaves that he had unknowingly picked up and squeezed it because it held the tightness that had burst into his chest.

"Idiih.what's this play a trick. Later, the punyanya angry you know" Shanum jolted when he knew Akhtar threw it with tea leaves, on his lips still leaving laughter because it managed to prank Akhtar.

'Emang you are the one who can make people sport the heart, I can also' muttered Shanum in his heart.

"Biarin, later you who must be responsible as a citizen here exemplify the wrong." said Akhtar no less fierce.

"Eh uh uh..enak aja, exemplify that is not true what?" shanum protested while picking up a tree branch lying near his feet and was then hurled at Akhtar.

They also fought a war of twigs and leaves, the stiffness that occurred between the two this few months seemed to melt under the rays of the morning sun that not only warmed the universe but its warmth was able to penetrate into the heart of the heart of two people who had been love and longing for each other.

Without them noticing the three pairs of eyes since just now were watching the interaction of the two of them. The three also dissolve with the scenes that they are doing. They smiled when they saw Shanum laughing with his release, the joy that had long disappeared today returned because of someone's presence.

Farida and Fauzan knew Shanum was waiting for someone. Every man who comes will he subtly refuse for various reasons. Until when Shanum received the proposal of the son of their mother's friend with little resort to the request of the mother they both knew.

But they never intervened in her brother's personal affairs especially about his love journey. Shanum was not very open about it, several times they had asked about the brother's lover but always the smile that Shanum gave in response.

One day they had found Shanum's diary, from there they knew that there had been someone who filled Shanum's heart. They don't want to force. Just know enough is enough for them, let it be when it's time for Shanum himself to tell the story. But they will always be there when the brother needs them.

As of today, Farida and Fauzan were convinced that the man she was with was the man who had been filling Shanum's heart space. Fauzan also recalled that the man named Akhtar came to the house and gave him a business card a few months ago.

Fauzan feels no stranger to the name, however, he once found his name written on the diary of the older brother he had accidentally read. They also chose to let and continue the activity when they saw Shanum coolly chatting with the man.

Akhtar and Shanum seemed cool chatting with various current topics. They look more familiar.

"Eh, where are they?" shanum

"Who?" ask Akhtar

"My sisters, they were taking pictures here" Shanum explained.

"It looks like they're moving away" pointed Akhtar towards Farida and Fauzan.

"Euleuh.it bumil macem-macem wae want tea." ceplos Shanum.

"Rubber?" ask Akhtar curiously.

"Yes, my sister Rida is pregnant. Now the age of the womb is two months to three.

Shanum told Akhtar about his brother. Not the slightest awkwardness was created between them even today they were busy with the chatter of their teenage years in Garut.
