A Soulmate Because of Will

Chapters 30. Istikharah

Today is the 3-day study of Fathan's departure. Rendy and Rangga were also present at the event, Alisha, her father and mother. Not forgetting that Sinta also came.

Despite both coming to Fathan's 3-day recitation, Alisha never once greeted Rangga. He was still in a period of mourning and was still confused by this situation.

After the study was over, all the neighbors and others resigned. But not with Alisha and her parents. Alisha accidentally did not go home because she wanted to tell what Fathan said before she died. He told both his parents and Fathan's parents.

The purpose of Alisha told that also because she wanted to ask for their opinion. Honestly, Alisha is currently confused about what she should do. Slowly and with her tears falling down her cheeks, she told him everything. They were very surprised by Alisha. They didn't think Fathan would do that

"What did you decide, son?", asked his mother.

"Alisha doesn't know Mom either", replied Alisha.

"If it is a will from Fathan, Mama sincere if you marry Rangga" said Mama Indah.

"One side, the testament must be run Ma. But on the other hand, Alisha does not love Kak Rangga" Alisha said in tears.

"Look, son, you are just angry, ask for guidance from God. Ask God for the best" suggested Hendrawan's father.

"Yes son, what your father said is true. You are istisharah only, asking for guidance from Allah and so that you do not worry. And suppose after Istikharah, you get a clue to your decision I accept. Papa leave it to you whatever your decision is. If your decision is to marry Rangga, Papa is sincere" said Papa Sujatmiko.

Alisha answered him by nodding her head in a sign of agreeing to their suggestion.

After enough of their conversation, Alisha and her parents decided to go home.

"In that case, we say yes Sir, Ma'am" Hendrawan's father told Fathan's parents.

They shook hands, followed by Alisha who also shook hands with Fathan's parents. Then, Mama Indah hugged Alisha tightly. A loving hug to Alisha.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Alisha.

"Wa'alaikum salam", replied Papa Sujatmiko and Mama Indah together.

Alisha and her parents left their home.

During Fathan's departure, no smile was emanated on his face. Alisha even permits not to enter the office until seven days Fathan. With consideration and policy, Rangga allowed it because Rangga knew how sad Alisha was.

After three days of Fathan yesterday, Alisha prayed istikharah to strengthen her heart anxiety. He did it up to three times. And finally he made his choice. He was steady to marry Rangga according to the will of Fathan.

After Fathan's seven-day studies, Alisha talks about her istikharah results to her parents as well as Fathan's parents.

"Dad, Mom, Mom and Dad. Alisha has been performing Istikharah prayers. Previously, Alisha apologized to Papa and Mama for Alisha's decision. Alisha will marry Kak Rangga according to Kak Fathan's will".

Mama Papa Fathan nodded in agreement to Alisha's decision.

"Alhamdulillah, Papa is glad to hear it. Papa see Rangga's a good boy. Papa is sure he can be a good husband for you. When it comes to love, Papa believes it will grow over time" said Papa Sujatmiko.

"So, when is the wedding planned?", asked Hendrawan's father.

"Alisha doesn't know well. Alisha also has not discussed this to Kak Rangga".

"Yes, you better tell Rangga first about this. If you may want to ask the same of you, you married Rangga on a date that we have determined before. On the date that you and Fathan are getting married. Mama also asked that you and Rangga wear a wedding organizer, place and others that we have ordered yes. So everything remains as originally planned", requested Mama Indah.

"But Ma, Alisha couldn't decide that. Alisha has to talk about it with Rangga first".

"Yes, Mama understands. When is the plan to talk to Rangga?", asked Mama Indah.

"God willing, tomorrow Ma, tomorrow Alisha will go to work again, and talk to Rangga".

"Yes already then. Hope everything is easy".

"Pregnant".

After the conversation, Alisha and her parents decided to go home.

"Wa'alaikum salam" replied Rangga.

"How are you?", asked Rangga.

"Well", replied Alisha briefly, then she sat down in her work chair.

Seeing Alisha's expression and short answer, Rangga thought that Alisha would not want to marry him.

"What decision will Alisha make?. Is Alisha going to reject him?. Mmmm...would I ask him this?. Ah, no, no, I better wait for him to talk to me himself", Inner Rangga.

After putting her bag on the table, Alisha then approached Rangga's desk. Without further ado, he immediately sat on the chair in front of Rangga's desk. Rangga was shocked by the arrival of Alisha.

"What is Sha?", asked Rangga.

"I want to talk to you, brother".

"about?".

"On the will of Kak Fathan".

Rangga took a deep breath, then stood up from his seat. Away from her desk, she walked towards the window and looked out the window.

"What is your decision Sha?", asked Rangga without facing Alisha.

"Sister, I'm here to talk to you, brother. Why is my sister facing there?".

Again, Rangga took a deep breath. And then back to his chair.

"Rangga, you must be ready whatever Alisha's decision", Rangga's inner.

Now replace Alisha who took a deep breath.

"I've been doing Istikharah prayers. I want to marry Rangga. I will carry out the will of Brother Fathan".

"Are you serious?".

"Yes".

"Aren't you going to have to make this decision?".

"I don't know, I'm just believing in the results of my Istikharah".

"If it's your decision, I'm ready too. I promised Fathan that too".

"But Brother, his mother Kak Fathan has a request".

"What request?".

"He wants, we got married on my wedding date with Kak Fathan. Keep clothes, places, and others we use the services we ordered yesterday. So Mama Indah won't cancel everything. She'll wear it to our wedding tomorrow"

"I'm whatever, I'll follow. As long as everything does not harm all parties and make Beautiful Aunt happy".

"Well, Alisha went back to Alisha's desk. And later Alisha will talk about this to Mama Indah".

It seems that enough of the conversation, Alisha intends to return to her work desk. But as Alisha moved from her seat, Rangga prevented her.

"Alisha", prevent Rangga. And Alisha looked towards him.

"Wouldn't we both talk directly to Fathan's parents?. We'll go back to work to his house".

"Yes it's up to Brother" replied Alisha resigned. Then Alisha went back to her desk and started doing the work that she had left behind yesterday.

After working hours, Alisha and Rangga went to Fathan's parents' house. Alisha this time wants a car with Rangga to Fathan's parents' house. Alisha sat in front beside Rangga, during the trip there was no conversation between the two.

Arriving at Fathan's parents' house, they both begin to talk about it to Fathan's parents. They wanted to convey their willingness to marry according to Fathan's will. They also agreed to Mama Indah's request.

How happy Fathan's parents were to hear that. With a happy cry, Mama Indah hugged Alisha tightly with affection. Alisha also returned the embrace with tears. Tears that can not be interpreted by Alisha, whether it's happy tears what tears of sadness.

Alisha currently only wants to carry out Fathan's will also from the results of his istikharah. Alisha does not know what happens in the future if she is married to Rangga. Because in fact Alisha married Rangga not because of love, but because of his will and the results of his istikharah.
