It did not take long for our food to come, I and Zafin immediately ate it.
" I'll go to the toilet for a while, you stay here and order whatever you want. Remember, don't be shy and don't be ashamed of me. " Said Zafin with a big smile on his face and left me at the table of the restaurant where we had lunch. I just nodded in response to his words.
'Looks like I should get used to his attitude chasing me like that. ' My sigh in heart while sipping a cup of my favorite Cappuccino latte.
" fi! Is that you?. " The voice of a little familiar man in my ear made me stop drinking my drink.
" Ricky!. " Sapaku was a little surprised by his presence. He was my friend when I was in Junior High, when I used to like him and even expressed my feelings for him but what I got was a reasonable rejection of Islamic law.
'How stupid could I have liked it?! He has even changed from a pious man to a gamer who is sometimes negligent with his worship. Cihh. ' I was upset in my heart.
" It just so happens that I want to say something to you, please forgive me for rejecting your feelings when you were in school. I realize what I did was wrong. " Said Riky while looking at me with a face full of regret.
" Can you get to the point?!. " I said out of concern for the man before me.
" Fifi, I've fallen in love with you. Would you like to stab...... " Riky's words were cut off as the figure of Zafin standing behind her patted Riky's shoulder.
" Dear what were you talking about?. " Said Zafin approaching me while hugging my shoulder.
" Why are you quiet, honey, if he's your friend, then you should invite him to our wedding, right?. " Said Zafin with her sweet look at me.
" Married?!. " Said Riky surprised. He had no idea before that Zafin would be my future husband.
" well...Riky, this is my future husband Zafin. " I said I introduced Zafin to him because of the deal between Me and Zafin I had to do.
" Hey Riky, oh yeah it seems like there was a word you haven't finished yet, isn't it so dear?. " Then Zafin looked at me with a sweet smile on his lips. Well.. Actually I did not pay attention to Riky's words earlier because I knew Zafin had returned from the toilet. We looked at Riky waiting for her to return to her words.
" Don't forget that, and I congratulate you both. I'll definitely come to your wedding, Fifi. All right, I gotta go now. Assalamualaik... " With an awkward face Riky left us at the restaurant. The man abandoned his intention to propose to me because he was already pre-empted by Zafin and Riky also knew it seemed like the feelings that once expressed a beautiful girl like me when school now no longer existed.
He knew because after graduating Junior High until now I had never been in contact with him like I used to often ask him how he was, what he was, or where he was. He also felt bad because he seemed to know I was very uncomfortable with him who suddenly greeted me at the restaurant.
" Waalaikumsalam's... " I answered and Zafin.
After finishing lunch before returning home we held a congregational prayer dhuhur in the mosque opposite the restaurant where we had lunch.
