You & Dusk
Broken

Ivan smiled with gratitude.. His gaze was not distracted to see his future wife, sometimes he lowered his head and beristigfar because basically they were not halal.

Ivan knew that well, but his heart could not if he did not look at his future wife.. His mind.. One more step, Yana will really be in her arms.

"Iwana.. Your eyes son." Gurau Ivan's mother who saw Ivan's funny behavior admired Yana.

Yana smiled shyly, now that her ring finger had been attached to a ring. The ring that confirmed Ivan's sincerity to invite him in a very serious bond was called marriage.

The application process today went smoothly, although Ivan was nervous but the hospitality of the Yana family made the nervousness of Ivan disappear, what else from the beginning he had received the blessing of the Yana family.

Grandma Yana even really liked the nature and attitude of Ivan all this time.. Proximity awakens well when Ivan decides to join Yana.

And vice versa.. Exit Ivan who had just known Yana had immediately liked Yana's attitude when she first met this afternoon during the graduation ceremony on campus.

The two families are starting to get closer.. They joke about each other. Now it's just a matter of time, so that the two of them really get married.

"So how's Ivan.. Is it true that after marriage you will bring my grandchildren to America?" Grandma Yana asked Ivan.

"God willing, I want to go to college there. All of you run one of the family businesses." Reply Ivan.

"It's a good thing you're getting married next year, because if now Grandma's not ready to take off Grandma's favorite granddaughter." Say Grandma while holding the hand of Yana who is currently sitting nearby.

Yana who heard her Grandma spontaneously hugged her Grandma tightly.

"But Grandma was proud.. Grandma's granddaughter can marry a man like you."

Ivan smiled.. I don't know how many times the compliment was said by the Yana family.

"I.. Ivan's mother was proud. Looks like Ivan got a good woman and a good family." Mother Ivan said.

The closeness of the two families is increasingly visible along with the smooth running of the application event today.

Meanwhile.. In the yard.

I never thought I would meet Puput today. A woman who hates me so much, because of the wounds I've given her sister or rather her cousin.

That man was Alfie..

I just kept quiet and didn't know what to say when he came and started looking at me with anger. "He.. Why are you here?"

"A..I'm." I'm not done yet I explained he just kept cutting off my conversation.

"Can you know this house?" again he yelled at me.

"No, I... Ak.."

"Mending you go.. Now it's.. Go ngak." He said pointing to the way out.

"Sorry Put, but.."

"There's no but-but.. Go ngak."

"I'm here to see Ivan." I said a little voice-raising.

I had to raise my voice because Puput did not want to hear my explanation.

"Huh!? Ivan's.." Puput was quite surprised when I mentioned Ivan's name.

"Yes, Ivan.." I said while scratching my head.

"Ka.. Are you Ivan emang?"

"Temen anyway, yes.. He dumped me on his show today. I think it's the right house because up ahead I saw Ivan's car." I clearly.

I don't think about what Puput is doing here. Is Alfy here too? What may be Ivan's future wife is Alfy's exit or... Ahhhh thinking about it scares me.

Puput looked awkward, he approached a little towards me. " So you already know that Ivan came here today to propose?" suddenly tanyanya.

"Yes of course, if you don't know where I might be right now" I replied with an awkward smile.

"Do you know who Ivan's future wife is?"

"Yes, if it's not wrong, her name is Yana... But I've never met." I said while laughing lightly.

The expression of the pup changed.. He was not good looking at me.

"You.. You better not go in."

"Eh.. Wh why? Ta's.. But I was invited."

I have to go in, at least Ivan saw me coming because I didn't want to let him and his parents down. They've asked me to come, even though it's too late but I have to go in.

"No.. You just hold it." Puput saw me with pity.

"Put please.. I need to know how to forgive my mistakes.. I know you hate me, but I really need to meet Ivan. I promised to come on his happy day, Ivan was my best friend.. No. gabe.. Ivan is like my brother." I squeezed it on Puput to let me inside.

"Arm.. Please, you need to get out of here. It's for your own good, too."

Puput still insisted that I not go inside, but I did not want to give up.

At least we got into a debate about this, I don't know why Puput kicked me out. It feels weird, if only because I hate it can get like this.

Back into the house.. The mood is still haru. The casual chat of two families intertwines very well.

Ivan was restless, occasionally looking at his watch.

"No Ma.. Arman is long.. Didn't he come."

"Try you on the phone, who knows he's lost."

Ivan moved from his seat.

"Ustad.. Umi's.. I'm sorry I came out first, I want a phone." He said while holding a smartphone.

"Oh yes, son.. Please."

"Custom Ma'am.. He was getting his best friend here, but he didn't look too good." Ivan's mother explained the situation.

"Oh.. Maybe get lost time ma'am."

Ivan walked out while calling.

In the yard of the house, I was still being held by Puput. I don't know what to do now, when I barged in. That's something I can't do in front of women.

While in confusion, my smartphone rang.

"Hello.. Assalamualaikum."

"Vaalaikumsalam.. Ivan's.."

"Man, where are you? So come here, huh?"

"It's me in front but I can't get in.. The thing.. Anu's.. It's."

"Well.. Yes, I'm out."

Soon Ivan came out of the house and saw me with Puput.

"Well that's Ivan.." I pointed at Ivan who was approaching.

He looked at Ivan.

"Sister.. Sorry, this is my best friend Arman. I let him come here." Ivan explained my position to a confused looking puput.

"Well, right.. I've been clear about that." My speech.

Puput just kept quiet, it seemed like he had no more reason to keep me from going inside.

Ivan and I finally went inside.

"I'm sorry Van.. It's too late." I said to him.

"No papa Man.. It's important you come."

We both went into the living room, I saw some kids playing. It seemed like all the families were gathering in the living room, as I stepped up..

"Alfy.. If Puput is here then Alfy is here too.. It could be." My mind.

I stepped with that thought.. Until I saw Father and Mother Ivan was in a conversation with a stranger to me.

As they entered the living room, everyone in the room turned their heads and looked at me and Ivan.

I joined them all.. My eyes were still on the middle-aged man who was currently talking to Ivan's father.

"Uztad.. Umi's.. Janas.. This is my best friend." Ivan pointed at me.

The man called Uztads by Ivan turned to look at me. He was surprised, even with his wife.. He was shocked to shut his mouth because he could not believe what he saw.

When my eyes focused on seeing the bayah man and his wife..

"Somali.." A woman wearing a white dress dangles from a long white headscarf covering her chest.

I'm looking.. Without even looking at it, I knew that sound.. The voice is Alf..

"Man's.. This is Yana, my future wife." Ivan pointed at Alfy.

I looked at Ivan.. What did Ivan say? I didn't hear his words clearly.

Time seems to stop, what happens? L'm.. L'm.. Not understand.

I turned back to Alfy.. She's very pretty in the dress she wears. I smiled seeing him.. Am I dreaming? In front of me right now was the figure of an angel.. Ja..

"Arm.. Man's.. You why?"

I'm turning... I saw Ivan.

"This is Arman, my best friend." Ivan said as he looked at Alfy

"Hehh, Yana?" Mumbles.

Alfy approaching. "Yes, I know.. Arman and I are both members of the Scientific Reasoning SMEs on campus." Said Alfy.

"Did? Janine.." I still don't understand, I'm still confused.

"Oh yeah.. Wow what a coincidence. You know me before." Ivan sumbringah.

Alfy's father and mother were still in disbelief, the look on their faces clearly illustrating how shocked they were to see me this time on the happy day of her daughter.
