Halal Love of the Senior
Accompanying Adelia

"Ai, I'll see the Emperor later but I don't know what time it is, yet" Adi said, checking the paperwork he would bring to the office.

"Have you made the same agreement as Mas Kai, Mas?"

"It's yesterday. He said he'd call me when the time is up."

"Where are you going to meet, Mom?"

"If not in his office, yes in the area near there. That's why I brought the bike today so I can move fast." Adi closed his backpack after entering all his work files and laptop.

"Mas, overtime isn't later?"

"God willing. Why, Ai?" Adi looked at Adelia.

"Open a fast at home doesn't mean?"

Adi nods. "God willing, Ai."

"I'll go shopping, too. All that chocolate, sweet arum, ice cream." Adelia mentioned everything she wanted to buy.

Adi frowned in wonder at hearing what his wife wanted to buy. "Ai, that's all sweet food. Uh, where's that sweet arum buy? There's no night market or so latent, Ai."

"Mas Adi, it's been all this time when shopping for anything at all? Sweet arum is sold in the supermarket Mas, but small packaging there are using cup cups so, there is a round trus coated with semen. Rich times don't really matter, do you?" Adelia clucked in annoyance.

Adi nodded slowly. "Seriously I don't know, Ai. I buy what I need and never buy anything else. Sometimes even bought the same mother or Dita. Yeah, look for it in the supermarket. Ai, who knows where to buy it, I don't know. Remember, do not buy a lot, later can be a toothache. I'm afraid it's been painful, Ai."

"It's not eaten every day, Mom. Just stock up at home if I want to snack."

"It's not that Ai doesn't really like sweet foods huh. He said to keep his body in proportion" said Adi.

"I want to eat something sweet, Mom. Is Mas Adi not going to be if I'm going to be fat?" Adelia turned sullen.

"It's not so, Ai. What matters to me, Ai is happy. Be thin, medium, fat, I still love Ai. I'm just reminding, usually Ai keeps a lot of weight."

"Since graduation, my weight has gone up, Mas. A lot of pants the same clothes that no longer fit." Adelia sighed.

"Code nih want to ask for new clothes," Adi's tease.

"No, yeah. There is still a robe, some skirts and also an abaya, Mas. Maybe I should've been rich Dek Dita put on the game continues."

"What's comfortable Ai wear, as long as not tight and show the curves of the body. If Ai wants to buy new clothes is also okay, then we will buy."

"Yes, Mas. But I don't want to buy new clothes. Tomorrow if you want to umrah."

"Yes already then. Ai's going next door?"

Adelia shakes. "No, Mas. No more mood. I'm doing nothing."

"Yes, already. Just rest. The achievement of learning to cook the same mother yesterday may be. If later lazy to cook do not have to cook let me buy food to break the fast."

"Thank you, Mom." Adelia smiled broadly at Adi.

"It's 07:00. Don't forget to lock the door, Ai. If anyone comes to see CCTV first, do not just open the door. If there's anything, don't forget to call me, Arsen or Rendra" Adi said before leaving.

Adelia nodded without answering. She followed the husband who had risen from the living room sofa and walked forward.

"I'm taking you here, Mom. I'm lazy to change clothes and wear a hijab" Adelia said in the living room.

"Yes, it's nothing. I'm leaving first. It's fine at home, Ai."

Adelia kissed the back of her husband's hand, after which Adi kissed his wife's forehead and lips.

"Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumussalam."

Adelia locked the door after Adi came out. She then saw her husband's departure from behind the living room window. After Adi left, Adelia went into the room. He settles down while surfing in cyberspace.

...---oOo---...

"Sori's interrupting your time, Kai," Adi said as he met with the Emperor in his office.

"Nothing. I just couldn't get anywhere, so we had to meet here. What do you want to drink, Di?" bargain the Emperor after allowing Adi to sit.

"I'm fasting."

"Oh yes, it's Monday. Sori, I forgot, Di."

Adi smiles. "Nothing. How's your wedding preparation?"

"Still waiting for a scheduled premarital hearing. My mother's other preparations are the same Shasha set up. Shasha's been asking to see the invitation card design, but I haven't had a chance." The emperor sighed.

"I've given up all the same mother and Shasha, but Shasha wants both ideas. I don't have any ideas." The emperor shook his head.

"That's your wedding, Kai. I used to not interfere much, I'm just what Mother and Adel's family want. But, I still come along when the invitation message, the same souvenir of the wedding ring. The rest is up to them." Adi shared his experience with the Emperor.

"I know so. I just ask for the same WO (Wedding Organizer) later there is a procession of Sword Poda (1) at the reception. The rest I'll just come with. But it turns out to be a complicated marriage, Di." Emperor laughs.

"Yes, especially if the family has a name. Then get ready your hands achy when the shaman." Adi laughed.

"Eh, I'm talking about my marriage anyway. What's the matter, Di? How dangerous is that." The emperor began to take things seriously.

"I accidentally met Sekar, Kai."

"Huh? Seriously, Di?" The emperor turned his back, not believing what he was hearing.

"Seriously, Kai. Why would I lie. Luckily I'm the same Adel." Adi then recounted when he met Sekar Ayu at the mall and when the woman came to his house.

"Gee, it's crazy rich Sekar, Di. His reckless type. You and Adel must be careful."

"That's why I asked you to meet, Kai. What do you think I should do?"

"If there is no evidence of a threat it is rather difficult to report, Di. If you were rich, Restu yesterday, you have evidence and Restu has also attempted murder so he claims he is easier. What matters is that you are more vigilant now. CCTV is still installed, right?"

"Still, Kai. I am calmer also if there is CCTV, can monitor the state of the house at any time. So, I can't report yet, Kai?"

"You still haven't bagged the evidence, Di. Had there been video footage of him threatening, it could have been evidence. Or it could be from a message or a phone call. Suppose there is terror sent home can also be used as evidence. If there's no evidence, it'll be hard to trap her."

"I'm kind of relaxed, Kai. But my wife was scared. The trauma seems to be coming up again."

"Take Adel therapy again, Di. Don't get drawn out. Moreover, you guys are in a program to have children."

"Yes, Kai, so was my plan. Yesterday's time home mom also suggested the same thing."

"We haven't been to college yet, have we? If noon is sent to your house, accompany Adel" the Emperor advised.

"Not yet, but the power's in a week or two coming in. This week want the same heregestration pay semester money continue KRS."

"Yes, just like that. As long as Dita hasn't gone to college, if noon be with your wife. Adel can also be distracted. Who knows with Dita, she could be more open because both women."

"Thank you for the advice, Kai. You're like a psychologist."

"So bad, I graduated in psychology, Di. This science I can use when I'm interrogating people."

"Well, great you, Kai." Adi patted his best friend's shoulder.

"Great what? I'm not okay. That's also gonna help support a career, Di." Low emperor.

"Aamiinu. God willing, In. Hopefully everything will be done."

"Aamiin's."

"And, ten minutes from time, the meeting begins" interrupted the Emperor's colleague.

"OK," said the Emperor.

"Then I go home first, Kai," said Adi.

"Yes, Di. Just call me if there's anything at all" the Emperor said.

"Ready, Ndan." Adi saluted the Emperor.

"What the fuck do you use all respect, Di."

Adi only laughed in response to the Emperor. "I'm home, Kai. Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Be careful on the road. Greetings to Adel."

Adi nudged and gave the Emperor a thumbs up before leaving his friend.

"There is still time for prayer" the Emperor murmured after seeing the clock. He rushed to take the wudu and prayed before the meeting.

...---oOo---...

"Mas, I can go next to ya" Dita's pinta told her husband.

"Tumbent kok. What's up?" ask Rendra.

"Mas Adi asked for it." Dita then shows a message sent by Adi, who asked her to accompany Adelia.

Rendra frowned. "Surely something's going on, dear."

Dita raises both her shoulders. "Maybe, Mas. Let me ask you, who knows why."

"Yes, Honey. Try calling mom let Ale play with me."

Dita then calls her mother and asks what happened to her sister and Adelia. Hasna's mother recounts all the events that happened when Adi and Adelia were staying there.

"Astaghfirullah, so that's the story. Deserve Mas Adi to ask me to accompany Sister Adel, Bun."

"If Adek has time to accompany Mbak Adel yes. Pity me if my mind keeps on. But Adek do not ask about yesterday's events. If Mbak Adel's story, Adek just responded," pinta Ibu Hasna from across the phone.

"Ready, Bun. I prepared the needs of Ale first new friend Mbak Adel. Mommy want to see Ale? Change video, Bun. It's Ale playing with his baba." Replacing the call mode to video. He then handed the device to Rendra because he had to prepare Ale equipment.

"Yes, Deck. Where's that handsome grandson?" Hasna's mother greeted Ale on video after seeing the granddaughter lying down while playing her mouth. For a few minutes Hasna's mother asked Ale to speak to Rendra.

After preparing all Ale's needs, Dita contacted Adelia, informing her that they were going there so that Adelia would prepare to wear long, hijab-wearing clothes.

"Are you all ready, honey?"

"Already, Mas. Ale let me be the fat one." Dita lifted Ale who was lying down into her sling.

"We went to Bude's house, son. Accompany Bude to not be alone." As often as possible he invited Ale to communicate even though Ale could not understand and respond.

"Mas, don't forget to tell your mother Nisa later. They're afraid they're coming home for us."

"Yes, Honey. Later when it's next to me tell. Yuk to there. Don't forget to wear an umbrella so Ale doesn't get too hot." Rendra brought Ale's gear and his work gear.

"Yes, Mum."

The three of them went to Adi's house after locking the door. Rendra shaded his wife and child so as not to be exposed to the scorching heat of the sun. Although only close, but Rendra still keep the two people who are responsible for it.

Dita would rather push the bell than open the door herself. He respected Adelia who was already his sister-in-law. She also keeps Adelia in a hijab position when she meets her husband. Although the two of them are close friends but they are not mahram and Adelia has also emigrated.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Bude," said Dita as soon as Adelia opened the door.

"Wa'alaikumussalam, Ale," replied Adelia.

They went into the middle room. Rendra who was still behind locked the door of the house before catching up with his wife and son.

"Tumben, Dek, play here?" ask Adelia.

"Ale misses Bude, son. Usually meet Bude, today have not met," replied Dita.

"Let Ale be a regular here, Del, if I'm the same Dita fit there's a show together." Rendra added.

"Mas, Ale was laid here just so be relieved. Please remove the table, keep the carpet there," Dita told Rendra.

"Yes, Honey. I put my bag in my room."

"I'll get you the carpet, Dek." Adelia moved from the middle room.

"Mom's gonna grab a drink, son. We go to the kitchen first while waiting for baba and bude to prepare a place for Ale." Dita carried Ale into the kitchen to grab a drink. He sat down in the dining chair and waited.

After the fur carpet was held in the middle room, Rendra put Ale's small mattress there. Bita then laid Ale on his bed.

"When do you start college, Dek?" ask Adelia.

"God willing in two weeks, Ma'am," replied Dita. "This week will be heregistrasi, next week KRS."

"Tomorrow I'll take Dita heregistrasi, Del. How did Ale try you?" ask Rendra to Adelia.

"Ready, Ren. If the heregistration is usually not long," said Adelia.

"Yes, Mother. It's also training for me to leave Ale."

"Definitely heavy huh, Dek?" Adelia looked at her sister-in-law.

"Yes, Mother. But yes, it was my consequence. Next semester I'm also interning." Dita took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"KN when, Dek?"

"Bareng same Mbak's thesis in my program. But look at it later. It's hard to leave Ale, especially if I have to stay over. There's no way I'm taking Ale to stay there with my KKN friends."

"If next year Ale's been over a year, Dek. Finished this semester, Ale is no longer exclusive."

"Yes, Mother. But I'm sad that shadow." Dita's face became a little grim.

"Don't be sad, honey. There was me, Adel, mama and the others, who looked after and loved Ale." Rendra stroked his wife's head.

"The two of you have been married for almost 2 years, have had children, but are still rich newlyweds anyway," commented Adelia who envied the intimacy of Dita and Rendra.

Rendra laughs. "Indeed we feel like we're still newlyweds, Del."

"Mas, tuh who feels the newlyweds continue." Tita slanted her husband's stomach.
