Almira's Regret

Am I a Haram Child?

In the afternoon, Mira is invited to walk by Adelia. The girl was curious about the tourist attractions around Mira's residence. They visited the cattle ranch once in the lembang area. Adelia and Fahmi drink milk freshly milked from her cow directly but Mira is forbidden to drink by Fahmi. They went home to visit another tourist spot. They make up for the longing by spending the rest of the time together before later parting again.

Every now and then Fahmi steals a look at the pregnant woman. He smiled but immediately walked around as Adelia or Mira turned her head.

Haru was getting late, they decided to go home.

"Dad I want a drink" Syafa said on the way. Fahmi asked his sister to take mineral water that he often prepared in the car. But it turns out that the supply is running out.

"Nothing, Mas," said Adelia.

"Wait for a minimarket. I forgot to check on you."

"Well dad I want a drink now."

Fahmi's car stopped in front of a minimarket. When Fahmi gets down, Mira goes down first. There is also a woman who wants to buy besides buying water for Syafa.

When she was paying and Mira was out of the super market, some guy Dion's age approached her, "Mira, right?" ask one of them.

"Yes?" Mira answered frowning.

"Beautiful," said one of them again as he reached out to touch Mira's cheek but was pushed over directly by Mira.

"Please polite. I don't know you guys."

"Well, the selling snobs are expensive now. Whose son is that?" point the other guy at Mira's belly. They act like they know Mira well.

"It's none of your business, excuse me." Mira walks a few steps away from them but suddenly her hand is pulled by one of them.

"Wey, relax Mir. Any customers waiting?" They laughed mockingly.

Mira turned around and looked at them one by one. He does not know those people but why they harass Mira. "Tell me who are you, did anyone tell you to? Because I sure don't know you guys."

"Wooooww turns out to be Mira the innocent, has changed. Must be in bed getting funnier. It's adorable songs." One of them winks at Mira.

"Sorry, but you guys are not interesting to be pulled into my bed" Mira replied with a mocking smile.

Mira deliberately plays on their feelings. If they ignite their emotions and play hands, it will be easy for Mira to take refuge under the law. But if Mira starts it could be Mira languishing behind bars. He doesn't want that. Those who harassed, should be those responsible.

"You insulted me?" The man whose body is the tallest and the most handsome does not accept Mira's words.

"No but that's the truth. Let me get you a glass so you can see what you are ...."

One of them was about to raise his hand to Mira's cheek. Lucky Fahmi who had since noticed from the mobik immediately came down and shouted at them.

Looking at the man who got down from the car, the four men who were bothering Mira rushed away.

"Are you okay?" tanya Fahmi approaches and worries about Mira.

"Sir Mira was great just now" said Adelia as Mira sat down and looked comfortable.

"Try to protect yourself, Dek. Because it is not necessarily every day there will be a guard. Just got brave because there were you, there's no way you're gonna let me be taken with them."

Adelia laughed at Mira's response. Of course the last sentence spoken by Mira is the truth.

They also drove Mira home first, just returned to Fahmi's house.

In a moment, Maghrib reverberated, Mira immediately opened the lock and immediately entered. Clean up and prepare to carry out the obligation.

A series of worried messages from his two friends, Mira reads after her obligations are in cash. Who else is worried about Mira besides her two friends and Fahmi's family except Dion. Before leaving, Mira forgot to tell Ema and Gina. Luckily, they are not the type of friends who will take matters into their own hands.

"I'm at home, just came home from outside. I'm sorry I left not to tell you first." Mira replies to a message from her two friends.

Mira thinks Ema or Gina will nag her through a group chat. It turns out that they contacted Mira directly through a video connection and nagged her.

"If you want to go say dong, we went back and forth just want to make sure you're okay." At length Mira heard the sentence spoken by her two friends. Really, the attention from them now was enough.

"I'm sorry, yes" said Mira closing the call.

He stared at the calendar on his phone, in a few days he had to check the contents. "We'll see a good doctor in a minute, son. May when you are born you always get an abundance of love from the people around you. Your presence is undesirable, but your loss of mother is also unprepared. What else is inside?" mira asked on the stomach that was being rubbed. Read some prayers that inspire hope for the child in the future.

Remembering the incident, Mira closed her eyes. It was hard to get rid of the bad views on him. Those people even dared to behave like that even in public places. What if you meet in a place that is not too crowded, it could be that he is really harassed.

Living alone, he is required to be ready to face all the possibilities that will happen. While waiting for Isya's time, Mira stared at the ceiling of the room, looking at the string of hopes with the child.

Her son grew up to be a sweet and healthy child. Every morning I asked him to make provisions for school. Ask him to take her to school. Seeing his friends being ushered in by his parents, the boy asked, "Mom, why have I never been ushered in like my friends. Don't I have a father? Am I a bastard?"

Tears seeped in the corner of Mira's eyes. Why did he not think far ahead. Why did he only think that someone loved him so much that he acted foolishly.

Again a sense of regret approached him.

Peace, Mir. Forgive yourself, you deserve to be happy and not be shackled because of the past.

Mira's phone rang, a message coming into her device. With mixed feelings, Mira opened the message. I saw a new number again. Mira scrolled the screen to open the message. The phone just threw it.

"Astagfirullah," hissed Mira. He closed his eyes saying as many istighfar sentences as he could.

The message contained a video of two adults having a husband and wife relationship. I don't know what purpose this person sent this message. Surely it has to do with Mira.

Just one month of feeling calm, now Mira must be ready to face things like before and now.

The sound of the door being knocked made Mira aghast. Wh who? who came? Mira peeked out from the room curtain, seeing a man wearing a black hoodie facing her. His face was not clearly visible because it was covered in hoodie hood but the lips of the person were clearly grinning.
