SYAHDU (Contract Sleep Friends)
Invitation for Dinner

Syahdu held his breath as Soraya walked leisurely looking for a place to chat. He only had to dodge if Soraya made an accusation against him, right? Then, does Arga know about this?

Soraya stopped at one corner of the corridor. He stares at Syahdu again from top to bottom, assuring that the woman in front of him is not one level with him.

"Anyway, yeah. I don't need to talk anymore." Directly applies.

Yes, Syahdu was not surprised by Soraya's change in attitude which was originally sweet but now looks haughty.

"Gue tau lo deket same Arga. I also want you the girl that Arga brought at the Junior High reunion. See for yourself, like how Arga level is there. And lo, not his type at all. So I asked you all the way from Arga, because I'd marry him."

"okay." Syahdu replied quickly and spontaneously making Soraya furrow her eyebrows.

"Gue will make lo nyesel kalo sampe lo still deketin Arga. I know he helped finance Grandma Lo's hospital. I can just unplug it if you don't follow what I'm saying!"

Hearing that, Syahdu was a bit shrivelled. What if Soraya could really take the cost of her grandmother's hospital?

"Denger no lo?"

"Yes, ma'am." Well, actually Syahdu happily wanted to stay away from Arga, separated from him so that he could be calm with Wicak.

"good. I hope it's my first and last date, yes!"

"Eee. mdm." Syahdu asked. "When did Soraya marry Arga?"

"Huh?" Hearing that, Soraya laughed. "Why? Lo jealous?? Soon I will marry her!"

"Faster, better, mbak. It could be next week."

Soraya's eyes were wide. Whatisit? The woman in front of him did not look angry or jealous and instead told him to quickly marry Arga? Soraya did not think.

"Shahdu."

Wicak called, Syahdu immediately smiled at the arrival of his lover.

"If so, I say goodbye, ma'am." Syahdu immediately ran towards Wicak.

"I'm looking everywhere not here." Speak to Syahdu who holds his hand affectionately.

Soraya. He was confused as to what was happening at the moment. Didn't Arga say yesterday that his favorite woman was sick? Then Julia also told him, the woman was named Syahdu, a class with Arga.

Then, what is it? Syahdu has a lover? So, Arga and Syahdu are not dating? Arga likes it on the side?

Soraya laughed a little. It looks like that, yes. This means that Arga has no reason to survive because the woman also does not have feelings for him. This problem, sorted out. Inner Soraya.

...🍁...

Syahdu and Wicak had lunch together at a roadside stall before Syahdu returned to the hospital.

"Whose one was it?" Ask Wicak.

"Emm. stray man, just a dean's room."

Mangosteen lizard only.

"This afternoon at work?" Ask Syahdu after swallowing one mouthful.

"Hour 3 this. I'll take you to the hospital before work." Wicak then sipped his tea.

"I'll be busy because I'm taking on extra work. One more semester I'm done with college and after that, we move out of here, okay?"

Syahdu nodded with a smile. One more semester means less than 6 months. Hopefully at that time, grandma has healed, her mind.

"I pay first." Wicak put his phone on the table. Then he went to the cashier.

The phone is vibrating. Several times until Syahdu grabbed it and opened a message from someone named Imel.

The furrow on Syahdu's forehead appears. Imel? Which yes, the man. I think I once knew his name. Her thought.

Syahdu opens Wicak's phone. He opened the chat room that had been noisy ever since.

Syahdu read the message from Imel. The girl asked to be tamed?

Syahdu opened his profile picture, and he remembered. Yes, Wicak's first friend who met him when he came to this campus.

Syahdu read the messages there. So many times, until Syahdu silently stared at the screen.

"Shahdu, why?" The new wicak came, immediately sat down and turned to the screen of his phone held by Syahdu.

"Oh, Imel. Let it go." Answer's cuek.

"That beautiful sister Imel, huh?" Syahdu asked with a trembling heart. But really, Imel is very pretty.

"Not very pretty, it is. Wait for you everywhere. It's better to look at." Wicak winks at his lover. But Syahdu can not smile even though it is contested like that.

"He.. likes big brother, huh?" Syahdu knew, after seeing all the contents of their conversation, it seemed that Imel liked his lover.

"Yaaa, don't know either. Ck. Don't think about it. Come on, I'll take you to the hospital." Wicak stood up, his hands stretched out so that Syahdu grasped it.

The girl greeted, then walked next to Wicak. "Why don't you want to?" Ask again.

"No what? Don't be weird. I don't have anything with him." Wicak grumbled annoyed and increasingly tightened his grip.

Syahdu is not without reason to say that. He had met Imel and indeed admired the beauty of the girl. Syahdu is not jealous. He was so jealous that even his knees felt weak when he knew there was another woman who liked his lover. But he's quite self-aware. What he did behind Wicak was more painful than the new facts he got today.

Though he has indeed established his heart, if one day Wicak knows and chooses to leave, he will mengikhlaskan. He had often thought about the day coming, braced himself and tried to accept it because it was all his fault. But when you know someone likes Wicak and is more beautiful, Syahdu even feels upset himself.

His phone shakes, Syahdu reaches into his pants pocket. Arga, he wants to say something important.

Wick gave him a helmet. "Yes?"

"I. dapet message, must perform the task together with temen."

"Let me take you. Where's?"

"Think about it, brother. It's close to here, really. Brother go to work so that it's not too late." Refuse Syahdu subtly. He's going to Arga's apartment to find the lekaki and get some of his stuff.

"Well, what are you really not yourself?"

Syahdu. "Be careful on the road, brother."

"You too. I'm leaving, yeah."

Syahdu waved his hand at Wicak. Then book a taxi online to Arga's apartment.

~

Arga glanced at the clock many times. He said Syahdu would come to his apartment, but it had been an hour before Syahdu had not arrived. Though he had prepared some dishes on the dining table, for lunch with the girl.

The sound of the door opening made Arga flutter. He didn't know what to do when the woman came in.

"Repeet.." Syahdu approached the small dog on the sofa, then hugged him with anxiety. Makes Arga unable to take his eyes off that beautiful face.

"Ga." His attention was shifted when he saw Arga standing in front of the kitchen room. "So soon, I'm ready for stuff first." He said while putting the poppy.

Syahdu began to take some of his goods followed by Popi who tailed funny. After finishing composing the goods, Syahdu approached Arga who was sitting at the dining table.

"Eat first."

"I ate with Brother Wicak. You cooked all this?" Syahdu sat in front of Arga's chair looking at all the food that Arga cooked. It was actually very fragrant, but her stomach was tight.

The man nodded slowly. He cooked so he could have a casual chat with Syahdu. But he forgot that Syahdu had gone with the man.

"Thank you, loh. You, cook everything."

"Gue doesn't cook for you. It's for me." The cook then took the rice and side dishes, began to eat the food.

"That, yeah. But, next time you don't need to be so good to me, Ga. Because without you being nice, I'll layanin you as agreed in the contract, really." Say Syahdu again.

"You mean?"

Syahdu was eager to say, that he had heard what he said to his friend. But do what. Let's hope he's conscious, Syahdu.

Arga put down his spoon and fork. "Lo don't think I'm good because I want to?"

"It wasn't that, yeah. I'm beating myself up, all right."

Eyebrow Arga linked. Hear it? Syahdu hear what?

"Lupain. He said someone wanted to be talked about. I have to go to the hospital."

Arga was silent for a moment. It seems he began to remember, the conversation he had with Arvian at that time, it turns out Syahdu heard it. Damnit damnit! The meaning in the heart.

"You don't exist anymore, I want to say goodbye."

"Gue ask for your help."

"Help?"

"Oma ask you to come. I promise to take you there. You see, he also knows if I helped you in the hospital."

Syahdu folds lips. Oma know? What does oma mean to scold her or what?

"Lo calm down. Oma just dined for dinner. If you have time, I'll pick you up tonight."

"Eye. if.."

"Lo just say if you have a guy so you don't get disturbed by oma anymore."

Syahdu. It felt like his worries were too readable by Arga. Or is it the man who is very sensitive?

"On Soraya, how?"

Arga threw out a face. He did not like that woman very much.

"Is he talking about you?" Ask Arga later.

"You know??"

"No. I nebak. You see he's still in the hallway of college." Answer Arga. "So he fucked you, said it to me."

"No, really. He just wanted acquaintances and he remembered I was the one you were reuniting with back then. He said, you'll be engaged soon." Then Syahdu lowered his voice. "You... Do you really want a fiance, Ga?"

Arga immediately clucked. "It's none of your business." Get up and get out of the kitchen. Somehow his mood became bad since Syahdu thought it was good because there was something he wanted, as well as the discussion of engagement that had no end. He told his family many times, but no one would listen.

Syahdu sighed. Arga is ordinary. But, why did Arga arrive like that when Syahdu only asked about his engagement so that it was clear, to where he had to serve Arga. So that Syahdu can breathe a sigh of relief. He wants to be free, that's all.
