A Hope Above the Wait

Ijaz began to realize the importance of Jasmine in his life

At that time, it was night Ijaz was seen sitting on the bed holding his cellphone. He tried to contact Anjani but at that time Anjani's number died and he could not be contacted. Realizing that, Ijaz began to get up from his bed and wanted to find out the whereabouts of Anjani. As he passed the table by the door, he saw the book he had given Jasmine. Just then, Ijaz who wanted to leave suddenly stopped and took the book. He sat back on the bed reading the book.

When he saw the book, his eyes suddenly glazed. He was sad but he did not know what made him feel that way.

"Why am I sad to see this book burn? Why?" Ijaz asked sadly to himself. He then wiped his tears and made them one by one and read each page well.

After reading one page after another in the book, Ijaz began to look glass again. It was because he began to realize Jasmine's love feelings for him were very sincere. Ijaz knew all of that from every wish that Jasmine wrote in the book.

Moments later, while Ijaz was busy reading the book, Ijaz went into the room with a tray of food.

"Ijaz, you eat yea," Mother Ijaz said to Ijaz after being in the room of Ijaz. At that time Ijaz refused to eat with reason that he was still full. Seeing Ijaz lying to him, his mother placed the tray near a table not far from him. After that, he sat down next to Ijaz because he realized that Ijaz was reading the book he had given Jasmine.

"What book is Ijaz?" asked his mother after sitting next to Ijaz.

"What's not Ma" replied Ijaz, keeping his focus on reading the book and hiding his tears from his mother.

At that moment, Ijaz looked towards the cover of the burning book. He realized the title of the book was Jasmine's book.

"What is Jasmine's book?" said Mother.

Hearing this, Ijaz looked directly at his mother and he suddenly leaned his head against Jasmine's shoulder sadly. He then closed the book and cried on his mother's shoulder.

"Ma, am I wrong for hurting Jasmine? I mean, my love for Jasmine was just childhood love not my sincere love. Butwhy? Why is it that when I lose her my heart feels confused? Especially, when he burned this book!" said Ijaz by leaning his head on his mother's shoulder.

"You're wrong to hurt Jasmine, even though I didn't know anything about your past life. But I know, Jasmine's love is very sincere to you. You can see it in his eyes if you ask Mama. Ma, did I hurt Jasmine wrongly? Your mother's answer is wrong!" said Ijaz Mother sadly seeing the state of her child like a loss of direction.

"Now Mama, ask for you. Be aware of Jasmine's love, as Mother saw the immense sincerity in Jasmine's heart!."

Hearing this, Ijaz kept his head away from his mother's shoulders. He then looked towards the book with eyes filled with tears.

"Will if I go back to Jasmine she'll forgive me?" Ijaz asked with a look towards the book that was already burning in some parts.

"Try it first, never stop trying it!" Ijaz answered the mother and she got up from the bed of Ijaz and left Ijaz.

Moments later, Ijaz is seen coming out of the room intending to apologize to Jasmine sincerely. But, when he was in the courtyard of the house Anjani seen already standing with Ijaz Mother. Seeing this, Ijaz slowly came out of the house with a look of surprise when he saw the arrival of Anjani.

"Anjani, why are you here?" Ijaz asked unconcernedly to Anjani after realizing that the most important woman in his life was Jasmine.

At that time, Anjani only looks silent. Not long after, his gaze changed as he looked towards the exact same book as the one burned by Jasmine.

"Tante, I'm asking Auntie for permission!. I want to grab one of my things left in the guest room" Anjani said well. After that, Ijaz's mother allowed Anjani to enter the house. At that time Ijaz asked Ijaz to accompany Anjani to find the item in the guest room.

Hearing the request of his mother Ijaz seen according to him, he then walked into the guest room simultaneously with Anjani. While they were in the room, Anjani suddenly stopped his steps and began to act strangely.

"Why did you take the book? Didn't you throw the book away and think it was trash?" said Anjani then he looked towards Ijaz with serious eyes.

"I just wanted to apologize to Jasmine!" answer Ijaz.

"What do you think, your actions, your words and everything you did to Jasmine could just be forgiven. No Ijaz, no!" anjani replied firmly.

"I know, I'm conscious too. What I did to Jasmine was so wrong, that I wanted to apologize to her. I want to ask him for a second chance" replied Ijaz firmly and began to pitched in front of Anjani.

"What do you think? Once you are aware of Jasmine's love for you, she will accept you, accept your apology, and she gives you a chance. Don't expect all that to happen Ijaz, even if it happens I believe you are too late" Anjani replied in a serious tone and looked at Ijaz with a look of disappointment. He looked very angry with Ijaz and his actions. After that, he picked up an item located on a small table near the bed. When he had taken the item and walked closer to Ijaz, Anjani stopped his steps when he was near Ijaz and then he again looked into the eyes of Ijaz sharply and seriously.

"When a woman is injured, there is no cure. So don't expect much from Jasmine. Because I'm sure, your awareness of Jasmine's love won't be able to melt Jasmine's heart!" said Anjani then he pushed Ijaz because at that time Ijaz was seen slightly blocking the path of Anjani. Anjani then leaves Ijaz and looks like he doesn't care about Ijaz anymore.

Hearing the words of Anjani, Ijaz looked sad. His eyes suddenly glazed over, he looked sad again.

"I just want to ask for a second chance, is that wrong? Why God? Why is it that when I realize Jasmine's love for me, people seem to want to keep me away from Jasmine? Why?" Ijaz said sadly. "I realized I was wrong, so I wanted to apologize and ask for a second chance!."

After saying that, Ijaz lowered his head. And, at the same time Ijaz's hand was holding the book that Jasmine was burning very tightly. A little while later, he went out of the room but when some outside the room Ijaz again met with Anjani. However, at that time Anjani was seen preparing to go home. Seeing Ijaz coming out of the house, Anjani was only seen looking at Ijaz with a serious eye gaze. Seeing that, Ijaz only looks silent and occasionally throw his face so that he does not see Anjani continues to look at himself with emotion.

Not long after, Anjani left Ijaz and his mother with angry feelings for Ijaz. At that time, Ijaz only fell silent by continuing to look at Anjani who stepped away.
