MisSane
It is early morning, when the dawn has just turned to bright. Quiet is all around, no sound, no working. The sun is slowly rising and sunlight is entering room from the shutter. Gina wakes up and found her friend still sleeping, right beside her.
“Honey, Wake up!” Gina is trying to wake Hanna.
“Hmm…” Hanna answered laziness and back to sleep again.
“Honey..! Please… you haven’t prayed subuh yet!” Gina goes on trying to wake her.
Hanna felt her body down under the bed into carpet and sit. She looked at the clock in glance. Knowing that the time is rapidly running, she hurried into the bath room…
###
Gina and Hanna are closed friends. They both have beauty face, but they have different way to think, life style, and senses. Gina is calm, while Hanna is more attractive. It is very reasonable, because they grew up in different backgrounds. Gina is the daughter of a teacher of low estate but Hanna is the daughter of rich parent and grows up in a glamour family.
One thing that makes them closed is they are in the same age.
Commonly, the parents sent their child to study abroad to continue their grade. But Gina’s father sent her study abroad just to makes her want and like to study then attend to university. After graduation of her senior high school, Gina taught in junior high school. Sometimes, she gave private course. Gina has earned money in early age and she enjoyed her life. But her father wanted her to continue her study by attending to university. Gina refused. Then her father offered her to study abroad. Egypt is the best choice for Gina because she is fond of Islamic history. It said that Egypt is the country of the prophets and mother of the world.
The main reason that Gina doesn’t want to continue her study is not just because she has a proper job and she has made her own money already. But…
“I’m sorry my dear, mama can’t help you any further. I know Hazim is a good boy, but you are still young…I’m sure that your father will be bitterly disappointed with your decision. Trust mama, if he is your future mate, God will gather both of you.” Gina’s mom was trying to set her mind at rest.
That was Gina’s fate. She obeyed her parent defenselessly. She is all ears even she has to break up with brother Hazim, a very good guy who has proposed her.
Hanna has another story. Hanna has never failed to fill her desire, served her need, and she always got what she wanted. She lived with no rules. Realized the fact, her parent were getting worry about her future. Then they sent her to this country, to learn more about Islam.
Finally Gina and Hanna attend to university in the late age, while other students are younger! Now is the final year for both Gina and Hanna.

Hanna comes back late. She is looking at Gina who slept before her, very tight. Hanna is smiling alone, her cheeks are red. She sits behind the window, staring at the sky. She found the moon is full and sure her heart is too. She is falling in love.
It is not her first time to fall in love. She used to make a relationship with some guys before. Love has made her laugh also cry. But Hanna is Hanna, never regrets to fall in love again. Even love hurt her more and more… but Hanna has her own way to end up her relationship, she always moved away before her boyfriend if she realized that he was getting changed.
“What’s the matter with you, Honey?” Gina broke the silent. She opened the conversation while Hanna didn’t realize that Gina was pretending to be asleep.
“Ups! Miss G. You haven’t slept yet.” Hanna surprised knowing that Gina is awake and began to tell story confidently. “Owh…Miss G, my dear, my love, my… oh my…You should know who is the lucky guy that is falling in love into me right now! He is Omar, someone called a Gus, Gus Omar. He is a son of the famous Kyai in our country. Oh, then both of us are lucky. He asked me to have a serious relationship, but I haven’t answered yet. Don’t you think that it’s too fast, right?! Owh my God, so sweet…!” She continued talking proudly.
Gina is waking up and sitting on her bad. “Owh, so he is Gus Omar your victim right now or maybe you will be the victim of him. Remember when you were crying aloud with pain” Gina reminded her friend to the moment that she was broken hearted.
“Don’t talk about victim, too scary to be heard. Call it LOVE. At least, he told me that he is serious. Hehehe…Take it easy Miss G, everything is under control. I used to cry a day for my broken heart, but I was always happy everyday before that day.” Hanna slightly said back, answered Gina.
“Don’t play with fire, Girl. You may get burned. It might be sweet in the beginning, but bitter in the end” Gina advised her.
“Owh, come on Miss G, don’t set your life in grief. If you are still thinking over him, you won’t find the groom!” Hanna began to blister her friend. “I know brother Hazim is your ideal prince, but he is belonging to another woman now. He is not yours anymore.” Hanna continued talking. “How many guys who came over you and you have rejected them?! Open your heart Miss G, give them a chance to make you happy, smile.”
“Have you finished judging me?” Gina alluded to her friend’s statement.
“I didn’t mind to judge you Miss G, Owh please…We are mature enough to have a special relationship…” Hanna avoided Gina’s thought.
“That’s the reason, Honey. Because we are mature enough, we are too old to make a relationship such a game! Be serious, honey.” Gina answered quickly. “And as a matter of fact, I haven’t been hoping brother Hazim back. I just admiring his character and hoping my future mate would be like him. As you knew, the guys who came over me have never been serious. If they really wanted me, they have proposed me and talked it over with my parent. Like brother Hazim has done.” Gina explained. “One thing you should know, I suggest you to ask Gus Omar to marry you. He’s a good guy. Don’t take too much time for something good.” Gina ended the conversation, then she back to sleep.
“What’s?! Get married?!” Hanna screamed aloud and shook Gina’s body.
“Stop it, Honey. Stop…!” Gina screamed back.
Then they continued talking until they sleep.
###
Hanna declared her surrender. She has been thinking a lot. It’s the right time to end up her status as a single. But as a woman, she is too shy to ask a man to marry her. But Gina is right. Having relationship with a guy before married is ashamed. Besides, her relationship with Gus Omar has just made her down. People will assume that Hanna more aggressive than him. Gus Omar is always right because he comes from “white family” and Hanna just the girl who wants to get high status being married to him.
In the other day, Hanna gathered her brave to talk it over with Gus Omar. Lucky Hanna because Gus Omar has understood what Hanna meant.
###
Today must be a happy day for Hanna. It’s her wedding day with Gus Omar. She is wearing white bridal gown. She looks so beautiful!
Gina stands across the guest’s seat from Hanna and smiling at her. Both Hanna and Gus Omar come from a rich and honored family. They have invited a lot of guests from all circles of society.
“Tit…tit. Tit…tit…” Gina realized that there’s a SMS came. Then she opens her mobile and reads the message “HELLO MISS G, LOOK AT 11 O’CLOCK. HE WANTS YOU!”
