"Are you confused by that? Hmm! It's so small, Abhimana. I have a brilliant idea and I'm sure Alinea won't be mad at you." Ricky's chatter makes Abimana feel calm and curious at the same time.
"How to?"
"A moment! I took my cell phone and we looked for it, and … OK, it's connected." Ricky said while looking at his cellphone screen, then gave it to Abimana.
"What is this Ky? Did you contact, Alinea? You are crazy? You don't provide a solution but instead add to my problem. Where did you video call her again, Alinea can know everything Ky. How are you?" Abimana's comments refused to continue the video call with Alinea made by Ricky.
"You've just followed my idea, and hold the phone, don't let it fall! You know, that cell phone is expensive? You don't have to talk, just be quiet and face the phone with me! I will speak to your wife." said Ricky while focusing on tidying up his slightly disheveled hair.
"Hello! Assalamualaikum, mas Ricky? What are you doing, sir? He said to Mas Abi, where is he?" said Alinea who immediately asked about Abimana's whereabouts, because she knew that Ricky, Abimana's close friend, had taken her husband with him.
He is endlessly smiling happily when answering the phone call from Ricky, because Alinea thought that Abhimana would talk to her. But in fact Abimana did not dare to look at or talk to Alinea because of the guilt that was so great in his heart.
Luckily Ricky had an idea to make Alinea believe and talk about other things. then they talk to make small talk first before they end the phone call as well as a diversion of Alinea's suspicions.
Until finally Ricky informed that Abimana would not be coming home, due to a business trip out of town.
Ricky also explained to Alinea about Abimana who he invited home to visit his parents in the village. Therefore, Ricky asked Alinea's permission to invite Abimana to stay at his parents' house.
There are so many reasons to divert their conversation, so that Alinea won't be disappointed with Abimana either. That way, Ricky would try to persuade Alinea in any way as long as he could succeed without any debate.
Of course, Alinea believed even to the point of allowing Abimana without any drama first. Alinea believed that they were indeed on a business trip out of town, because they had always done that before.
Even though it was all a lie, there was no business trip or visiting his family in the village. Rather it will do something it shouldn't be doing at all.
But whatever the power of all that must happen, and even worse, Ricky, who is a good friend of the two, was involved in the process of Abimana's marriage with Stevia.
That means Ricky has both betrayed Alinea, even though he didn't mean to do that. However, because it was Ricky who helped Abimana by suggesting the idea, make Ricky the first to be blamed if Abimana's household with Alinea falls apart.
"You don't worry about your husband, Alinea! He'll be fine, he's not stuck in a hotel with girls either. I promise to hit him if that happens." Ricky said full of lies.
"Yes But Mas Ricky must remember, nothing is missing from Mas Abi's body when he comes home. Everything must be complete in him, including his love." Press Alinea who made threats to Ricky, as the one who had taken him away.
Alinea wants Ricky to be responsible if something happens to her husband.
"You promised me that you would keep your promise to me?"
"I-yes. I promise. I will guarantee it will never happen." Ricky said, now starting to get nervous when he talked to Alinea because he was lying.
The promise he made to Alinea, he betrayed right then and there.
"Why mas? Why did his voice change? Is something going on, you're not lying to me are you?" Alinea asked a little suspiciously about Ricky's attitude, which is now starting to change unlike before.
"Yes no. I'm not lying to you. Why did I lie? It's like I want to destroy my own best friend's household, if I support him doing bad things."
"Alhamdulillah, it turns out that mas Ricky is Abi's best friend. May God give you safety while there. Whether it's from a woman's temptation, or some other evil."
"Amen." Ricky said without hesitation.
And simultaneously with Alinea's statement, two people arrived using an automatic motorbike and stopped right in front of Ricky's parents' house.
Of the two people, one of them looks different. A middle-aged man, wearing a black cap, and a dark blue turban, with a bag in his hand, got off the motorbike and approached the two who were sitting in the front seat of the house.
Without further ado or giving an opportunity for Ricky and Abimana to hang up the phone, he immediately asked about the marriage that would now be done by Abimana with Stevia.
From the way he dresses, make Abimana or Ricky believe that he is the chief is who has been prepared by Ricky's family according to their request, to marry Abimana to Stevia.
"Excuse me Sir, may I ask you something? Is it true that there is someone in this house that I will marry? Said he was from the city? Is that true? Or is one of you getting married?"
Hearing the man speak, made Abimana and his friend so nervous that they didn't dare to make a sound. Ricky closed the speaker phone so that Alinea wouldn't hear their conversation.
"Sssttt!! Sir, don't be so loud, someone will hear you!" Ricky immediately stopped the old man by covering his mouth, so as not to continue.
Abimana tried to divert his cellphone in another direction, so that Alinea would not see the man.
"Who is that sir? Looks like a wedding is being held there? Who? Your brother's wedding?" Apparently Alinea heard the man's voice even though Ricky tried to stop it.
