《 FACE BEHIND VEIL 》

THE TAARUF Part1

The next day after all night Alinka tried to persuade Faiz finally Faiz was willing to change his mind and try to accept this match.

 

“Assalamualaikum... morning ummi?” greet Faiz as he approaches ummi in the dining room.

 

“Wa’alaikumussalam... Faiz, you're all right?” answer ummi.

 

“Alhamdulillah Faiz fine ummi, sorry in Faiz has been selfish on ummi and Abi.” Faiz apologized to Ummi while hugging him.

 

Alinka was happy to see Faiz's attitude improved.

 

“After Faiz thought back, InsyaAllah Faiz will try to accept this proposal Ummi, Faiz give the girl a chance within a period of one month, and, if he still can't make Faiz's heart comfortable sorry in Faiz, Faiz will cancel this matchmaking.” Faiz said giving the requirements.

 

“Alhamdulillah son, Ummi happy to hear it, surely son, Marwah will not disappoint you, ummi sure choice Abi will never be wrong.” Answer ummi happy.

 

“Abi will definitely be happy to hear this statement Faiz and today Marwah also her family will come here.” Sahut ummi is back.

 

At exactly 09.00 bell of the house rang, it seemed like the family entourage of the girl Abi's choice had arrived in front of the house.

 

Ummi and Alinka immediately greeted him after they spent hours in the kitchen serving dishes to the guests.

 

“Abi, it looks like the Kyai Sholeh family has arrived.” Sahut Ummi while stepping in a hurry towards the front door.

 

“Iya mi like it was them,” Abi replied from inside the room while rushing to follow in the footsteps of ummi.

 

From behind Alinka walked slowly with Abi and ummi, Faiz suddenly called out to her in a whispering tone.

 

“Sstt... Sstt... deck, here...!!!” said it.

 

Alinka glanced at Faiz who was like hiding behind the kitchen entrance curtain.

 

“Ngapain the hell brother even here? I'm there immediately get ready, your prospective mate has arrived.” Alinka walked up to him.

 

“Sister is still in doubt, is the decision you took right?” he said he was confused.

 

“Sister, did you not see the look on the faces of Ummi and Abi when you heard that you were willing to accept this match? They are happy brother and sister have been very right to make a decision to make them happy.” Alinka answered as if to clarify.

 

Faiz was immediately pensive...

 

“How about Alin help sister to get ready?” sahut Alinka is excited.

 

“Hah...!!!” Faiz was surprised to hear Alinka's words.

 

“Come brother, to the quiet room we will not enter the room together kok Alin will ask bi Minah to accompany Alin in the room brother while preparing the clothes brother.” Clearly Alinka while stepping into Faiz's room accompanied by bi Minah household assistant there.

 

Faiz followed Alin's steps into the room.

 

“Nih brother, sister wear this shirt seems to fit.” Sahut Alin while taking out Faiz's flagship clothes.

 

Faiz just looked at him at the door.

 

“Come brother here wait let alone.” Alin continued to chatter like a child, which made Faiz smile and look at his behavior.

 

“Come, come on!!!” sahut Alin while giving the shirt to Faiz.

 

Faiz can only obey what his beloved sister Alin said at this time.

 

After a few minutes, Faiz changed clothes with clothes that Alin recommended.

 

“It's good... Isn't it Minah? My brother is very handsome today.” Chirps Alinka with excitement.

 

“Now live with perfume, sister perfume a lot have Alin Just one even though brother boy why a lot of perfume collection?” alinka asked while looking at Faiz's vast collection of perfumes.

 

“Let brother can change every day deck so do not get bored.” Faiz replied with a small smile.

 

“It smells good, just use this!” sahutya.

 

Alinka sprayed perfume all over Faiz.

 

“Even he knows what my perfume taste and my clothing style are like, O God whether this is a clue or just a coincidence, which is definitely what I feel right now towards him, O God whether this is a clue or just a coincidence, I love him very much as a servant's brother to Allah.” Faiz said in his heart.

 

While Alinka was busy preparing Faiz, ummi's voice was heard calling.

 

“Faiz, Faiz, here son...!!!”

 

“Ummi has called brother dik,” Faiz said to Alinka who is still busy dressing her up.

 

“Be a little more responsibility.” Answer Alinka.

 

Finally Alinka put Faiz's hair aside and gave him a little hair oil typical of men in Faiz's hair.

 

“Well, it's so good to look at, Done brother!!!” when she finished dressing Faiz.

 

Faiz also reflected on seeing the figure of himself that had been prepared by Alinka.

 

“This is my style and again Alin understands what I like, God why this one girl is so magical to me.” Faiz said in his heart.

 

“Come, let me escort sister out room.” Alinka.

 

“All of you in the trailer? Older brother hand in hand with Zainab.” Faiz said slightly teasing Alinka.

 

“He he... it's different again brother, Zainab younger brother and I'm just a foster sister still can't not muhrim.” Alinka replied in embarrassment.

 

“But you are my younger brother, my feelings are the same as to Zainab.” Faiz assured Alinka.

 

Alinka just looked at Faiz's face which already looked fresh and different.

 

“Not hold hands really, promise big brother will never touch the skin of your limb any part, big brother just want to hold your hand.” While showing the arm in his hand, Alinka hopes to welcome him.

 

“Sorry brother, but Alin is afraid of wrong.” Alinka answered nervously.

 

Faiz gave up and they just walked out of Faiz's room.

 

The atmosphere in the living room was already very crowded, the cluster had begun to feel Faiz, little by little his hands and feet immediately felt cold.

 

 

After that, Faiz sat beside Marwah the girl who would be betrothed to him.

 

Faiz immediately saw the figure of Marwah different from the figure of another woman, something different from him but I don't know what.

 

Similarly, Marwah occasionally steals views towards Faiz, she looks very shy and falls in love at first sight. Because the figure of Faiz is a man dreams of women, his good looks, to his shole, to his softness towards women because Faiz himself is a child who loves a mother and both parents.

 

Any girl would feel very lucky if she could be paired with him.

 

Faiz tried to open his heart to make his heart comfortable for Marwah, but still Faiz's view could not turn far on the figure of Alinka who always made his heart feel shady and peaceful.

 

Every time Faiz looked at Alinka, the nervousness disappeared, but if he sees the figure of Marwah his heart feels crushed back like there is one strange thing but he does not understand what it is.

 

“Akhy, why do you always look that way?” asked Marwah who was confused at Faiz's attitude.

 

“Whose is aky?” ask Marwah back.

 

“That's my sister's name is Alinka.” Faiz replied to Marwah.

 

“Your relationship looks very close huh? Ever since I came out of the room, it was always him who was next to Akhy.” Ask Marwah at length.

 

“What's really why? Naturally, if the relationship of a brother sister looks very close?” sahut Faiz felt a little irritated, it seemed like Marwah was a jealous girl even such a thing he questioned.

 

“Not aky I feel amazed just to see the closeness akyy with sister akyy.” Marwah answered trying to hide her true attitude.

 

“It looks like you should know Alinka, she is a very nice and gentle person always friendly to everyone and her person is forgiving.” Obviously Faiz.

 

Marwah could only smile a little at Faiz's explanation.

 

“So busy aky now what is akyy?” tanya Marwah tried to divert the conversation.

 

“Alhamdulillah now I work in Madinah as a lecturer and in the next few months I have to go back there soon, because the lecture activities have begun to be active again.

 

“Emh... busy turns out aky yes,” Marwah said.

 

“Ya so.” Answer Faiz simply

 

“Then what is your own busyness Ukhty?” ask Faiz to him.

 

“Do not call Ukhty aky, just call Marwah to feel close.” Marwah answered while blushing in shame.

 

“Oh yes already.”  Sahut Faiz's.

 

“My current busyness Alhamdulillah because I am the only daughter of abi and umi now I am in control of abi's pesantren cottage, while occasionally teaching at a well-known university in the city.” Marwah said she was proud again.

 

“Emh... like that, great dong yes still young can already be a ustazah.” Faiz replied occasionally trying to praise Marwah so as not to be too tense.

 

“Isn't aky himself a Ustad? So we fit Ustad her partner ustazah.” Marwah said confidently.

 

Faiz could only smile at his words.

 

Then occasionally his eyes were always fixed on Alinka who was engrossed in her conversation with other guests.

 

“Indeed abi akyy has how many sons a daughter?” marwah asked because she saw Faiz's gaze was always on Alinka.

 

“I was the first child of the only and second man Alinka a daughter Abi and Ummi so soft and Sholihah then Zainab the 3rd child and Salma the 4th child then Fitria the youngest spoiled and adorable.” Obviously Faiz arranged one by one his sister including Alinka who is actually only his adopted sister.

 

“Oh so, but akyy closer to Alinka a?” ask Marwah.

 

“Sama all I'm close but Alinka sister specialtiesku.” Answer Faiz

 

Marwah could only sigh seeing her cold attitude towards him.

 

At lunch, Marwah tried to approach Alinka who was busy preparing dishes at the dinner table, when she was about to approach him there was a scene that was quite not wearing for him.

 

“Dek, take in brother rice complete same side dish huh?” Sahut Faiz while giving a plate to Alinka.

 

Alinka also take food like husband and wife looks very harmonious and harmonious.

 

But Marwah did not like it all, she watched from a distance.

 

When Faiz's hand accidentally touched Alinka's hand, Alinka was shocked and immediately distanced her hand from Faiz's.

 

“Sorry brother accidentally.” Faiz felt guilty.

 

Alinka then left him.

 

“What's with them, should a pair of sisters look ordinary to touch each other but they??” a big question mark appeared in Marwah's mind and he intended to search for it.

 

Marwah approached Faiz who was seen still taking food for lunch.

 

“Why is your sister Akhy, I saw her suddenly go away from you after I saw your hand accidentally touch her hand?” ask Marwah curiously.

 

“Oh that was, yes I accidentally nudged his hand and Alinka's hand so hit a pot of soup that was still hot so he was surprised and went to cool his hand with water in the kitchen.” Faiz answered trying to cover up Alinka instead of her younger brother.

 

“Oh so.” Sahut Marwah while not satisfied with Faiz's answer.

 

Then he also intends to approach Alinka who is in the kitchen.

 

“Why Ukhty his hand?” ask Marwah while looking at Alinka's hand that looks fine.

 

“Oh nothing, that aunt suddenly called me for help.” Alinka answered nervously.

 

“Oh so yes.” Answer Marwah, please,

 

“Their answer is both different yes, what are they hiding against all?” Marwah said in his heart.

 

Then the lunch hour passed and the meeting time between the two families went smoothly, Faiz lived through a taaruf session with Marwah for one month with the supervision of both parents from both sides and at that time the Marwah family also gave permission and returned home.
