Friend

Anya could see her old self in them. She imagined that she would also share festivities with Tara, Nadine and Jenny, enjoying their old age together.

Perhaps they would sit in the same garden together drinking tea and chatting.

When they are old, their children will have their own lives.

If their husband betrays them  one day, they will not be afraid because they have each other.

Jenny's birthday came in the blink of an eye. A few days before her birthday, Bima had planned various things. He also phoned Rudi. 

"Rudi, are you free today? Come home to eat. We can also play chess. Jenny's birthday is at the end of the month. If you're not busy, you can help us to prepare."

Lately, Rudi has been in a daze because his parents keep urging him to get married.

Not only Bima, but his father, Triawan, also urged him.
