Descending from the taxi with a feeling of unwillingness, Myria almost turned back because she refused to meet Mr. Tirta who was waiting inside the hospital. During the trip earlier, the girl changed her mind so as to invite Space back.
However, the response of Space is different. The young man tried to give an understandable explanation. Not without reason Angkasa persuaded Myria, he wanted the wife to get a definite answer and as if not a promise debt. Although actually, Mr. Tirta did not force to be approved DNA test case, but this morning Myria had said ‘iya’.
“You called the guy first?” The sky asked slowly. His one hand still held Myria's hand. The two teenagers began to enter the main door of the hospital and were greeted by the registration counter.
“People are waiting inside he said. But don't know where.”
“Phone, gih!”
Hesitating Myria pulled the phone out of her pocket. Several times he squeezed Angkasa's hands so nervous.
“Quietly, there is me,” said Angkasa trying to calm down again.
Not yet had the number of Mr. Tirta pressed, Daniel first came and approached. The 30-year-old man frowned at seeing Space with Myria. Especially in a hand-to-hand position.
“Nona, come.” Although curiosity has peaked until the crown, Daniel is professional in carrying out the task. He seemed to see nothing of Myria and Space.
“Oh, yes, Mr.”
Daniel's smile was painted sweetly on his handsome face. The man wagged his blazer suit and instructed Myria to walk in the direction where Mr. Tirta was.
Arriving in front of one of the rooms, Myria was already awaited by Mr. Tirta and the medical personnel who will handle. He immediately gave his greetings, then entered the check room where sampling would be done.
It didn't take long to sample. The two men went in turns, then came out. The hospital said it would give news two weeks after the checkup was completed.
“Good, thank you. We excuse.”
Everyone just moved and left immediately. Myria didn't say much when she met Mr. Tirta. In fact, even Space, does not interfere too much.
“Do you want to come with me and Daniel for dinner?” Exiting the main door of the hospital, Mr. Tirta offers other activities. It still feels less meeting Myria is only that short.
Angkasa and Myria stopped and looked at Mr. Tirta together. “No need, Sir. Thank ye. In a moment magrib, we have to come back soon.” Without asking Angkasa, Myria made her own decision.
“Nona—” Daniel was about to persuade, but Mr. Tirta's hand had already asked him to stop.
“Alright, I won't force. We meet in two weeks.”
Myria nodded. He cupped his hands to his chest and said goodbye to Angkasa. Apparently, he was not easily familiar to new people after the departure of the mother. The death of Lady Kinara changed Myria's life and attitude completely, even to laugh as contentedly as before, Myria had forgotten her way.
“Udah relieved?”
Myria turned to the person at the side. He pulled Space's hand for the young man to sit closer. “Makin deg-degan wait another two weeks.”
Laughter slowly airs from the mouth of Space. One hand rubbed his wife's head attentively. “Pray the best. Salatnya tinsengin, serahin all the same Allah.”
Time goes by so fast. Nothing happened for two weeks after DNA testing at the hospital. Mr. Tirta several times invited Myria to eat together, but always refused. Space actually did not prohibit the origin from going with her, but Myria kept the boundaries.
“So today?” ask Angkasa while tidying up the book after the last lesson is finished. Myria in front of her nodded while pulling the hijab.
Friska in front of Myria was just waiting for her two friends. He knew that his best friend had accepted Mr. Tirta's offer. “My, can I come?”
Myria's attention on the phone moved on Friska. He turned his head to the side where Angkasa was also staring at him.
“Kepo highly lo.” Myria was about to open her mouth, but Friska's question was answered first by Angkasa. The young man smiled in a slant after answering.
“Clearly. You're not myria.”
“Enak aja lo say that, Ka. It is precisely elo tuh third person among my friendship with Myria.”
“But eventually Myria will be with me longer, not lo. Especially if you're married, not sure you can still seintens now.”
“Yakin, go! Why not!” Friska still continues to respond to the talk of Space. In fact, her best friend's husband was clearly deliberately fishing for things.
“Udah. What, the hell, you guys are.” Myria is caught off guard by Friska and Angkasa's debate. No day passed without feud despite initially trivial affairs.
“Your husband, this, My. Really ngeselin.” Friska. His face pouted and glanced cynically at the young man who was still sitting on the back bench.
“Elo aja baperan.” Instead of being silent, the sky is still chiming in. Turns out, not only does a strong Friska want to win, but that guy too.
“### Yes, God. Udah!” Myria had to break up with the rest of her patience. “Ayo, leave. If you are still having a grand debate. I'm leaving alone.”

***
The hospital was returned to Myria. This time she was not only with her husband, but also her best friend. Friska ended up coming even while in the taxi fighting with Angkasa several times.
Just like two weeks ago, the arrival of Myria has been awaited by Daniel in the lobby. The man immediately brought Myria and her friends in.
In the waiting room, Mr. Tirta was already sitting quietly. The man's face smiled kindly upon seeing Myria's arrival. He stood up and approached.
Friska who joined had seen the face of Mr. Tirta for the first time. Several times he rubbed his eyes.
Yes, God, if this man is really my best friend's father, then Myria is a real tajir.
“You're healthy?” Before discussing anything serious, Mr. Tirta invited Myria and Angkasa to chat. Already the second time to meet Angkasa, Mr. Tirta began to be familiar although not too much to ask who exactly the young man who was always with Myria.
“Alhamdulillah, healthy, Mr.”
Master Tirta nodded once with a smile. His two eyes moved to look at Friska who had been silent since.
As if understanding what Mr. Tirta meant, Myria first introduced. “This girl is my best friend, Sir. Name's Friska. My friends are also.”
“Oh, yes.” Unlike yesterday meeting Myria wanted to shake hands, Mr. Tirta better understood the way the girls interacted now. He just threw a smile and was replied to the same thing by Friska.
The chatter of those people came to a halt as the physician assistant called. Mr. Tirta and Myria immediately entered. Space also participated, while Friska wanted to stay but was invited as well.
The doctor greeted with a small talk for a while to Mr. Tirta. Then, he gave the laboratory results of DNA samples taken yesterday.
Mr. Tirta opened the white envelope with the letter of the hospital name, then read the inscription on the piece of paper inside.
Tables containing medical terms are not well understood by Mr. Tirta, he immediately focused his gaze towards the end of the page containing the conclusion.
And the result was ….
