Behind Aisha's Veil

Exhorting

"I'll make the calculations with you later." Alvian looks furious while taking the forced Aisha veil in Anita's hand.

He then opened the doctor's suit he wore, covered his wife's head with it and walked away from there still hugging his wife accompanied by the eyes of everyone who was there.

Aisha was a little relieved that there was now her husband's coat covering her head and face, even so apparently Alvian still hugged her tightly, asking her to walk away from the place.

No matter where Alvian would take her, Aisha just followed her husband's will. They continued to walk out of the hospital towards the car park.

"Come inside" said Alvian as they arrived in front of his car, he opened the door and asked Aisha to enter while giving him the veil he had been holding.

"Wait a minute here" said Alvian, closing the car door. Leaving Aisha alone there.

Aisha watched Alvian leave while opening the suit that covered her head, she then exhaled a long breath while leaning her body on the chair.

He saw the veil in his hand.

His eyes were teary, recalling the incident where he humiliated Anita in front of many people.

Almost everyone saw his face, but luckily, Allah SWT was still covering it, before the veil was completely detached from his face, he had already covered her with both hands and after that Alvian came to hug her for the sake of covering her face.

Had her husband not come, I knew what would have happened to her. It was certain that Anita would continue to humiliate him, while she could do nothing without a veil on her face.

Aisha immediately put her veil back on, tidied it up and looked out of the car, looking for the whereabouts of Alvian who was nowhere to be seen.

Recalling her husband's message, she decided to wait for him there. He then saw the husband's white coat. Aisha holding. A flash of shadow when again she was in the arms of her husband again flashed.

At that moment, for the second time both of their heartbeats seemed to fuse together, for the second time also he felt a warm and comfortable hug there, inside his embrace. Ja. Comfortable, for some reason that was how she felt when her husband hugged her, the tighter the more secure she felt.

Aisha continued to stare at the white coat in her hands, then hugged it while daydreaming for a while, she was suddenly startled by the sound of the car door opening and Alvian got into it, sitting beside it.

Furiously.

His breath was puffed up, both his hands clenched.

Aisha fell silent, not knowing what her husband had done earlier, but she knew that Alvian was now very angry.

"I'm sorry" said Alvian.

Aisha was silent and did not answer.

Both of them were silent for a moment.

"Are you hurt?" alvian said as his emotions subsided, he saw Aisha beside him.

"No," Aisha replied as she shook her head.

"Thank God" said Alvian again look relieved.

"I'm sorry" Alvian said.

"Stop apologizing. He's nobody to you so his mistakes are your responsibility." Aisha looks upset.

Alvian was shocked, he did not expect that his words were wrong.

"Yes. I was wrong" said Alvian.

Both are silent again.

"I'll go back inside" Aisha opened the car door.

"Wait." Alvian reflexively held his wife's hand to hold her.

Aisha was shocked, as well as Alvian who immediately took off his wife's hand.

"Sorry."

Aisha undoes her intention to get out of the car.

"What's wrong?"

"Anita. He won't stop bothering you."

Aisha was about to say something but suddenly they were startled by the sound of someone outside the car calling out to the two while banging on the windows.

Alvian was shocked to find out that it was Anita.

Aisha got out of the car.

Now he was standing right in front of Anita who looked very angry.

Anita will pull back the veil but this time it turns out Aisha is ready, holding Anita's hand tight.

"You know how to rebuke the wrong person? The one who reprimands others when they are just the two then that is advice. And he who scolds his brother in front of many, verily, it is a disgrace to him."

"Therefore I was silent," said Aisha, taking off Anita's hand violently.

"I don't want people to know all your ugliness."

"Shut up!" Anita snapped at Aisha.

Alvian mediates both.

"It's enough Anita!"

"Why do I have to stop now, because you complained to the director, now I've been fired from this Hospital." Anita looks very emotional looking at Alvian.

"You two have ruined my life!" Anita looked at the couple alternately angrily.

Aisha approached Anita.

"What you need to know, I'm grateful that we met and intersected, whether the color of life I would never know if we didn't meet. That there is a man who is never aware of mistakes, cannot understand the nature of the truth, accuses others with a lack of sense, along with those traits he thinks that he is the truest man, he said, which must be understood and understood."

Anita wiped her tears.

"Don't lecture me! I don't need all your lectures!"

"Don't wait for you to wear a hijab so you feel better than me and can advise me."

Aisha smile.

"Life for me is reminding each other not blaming each other."

Aisha will step away but she blurts and then looks back at Anita.

"Hijab. Not a measure of good or not the character of a person, not required heart, morality, religious knowledge, fasting prayers and other practices perfectly used to be able to wear it. Closing the aurat is obligatory, Allah SWT commands all Muslim women who are religious." Aisha leaves Anita, followed by Alvian.

Anita looked angry and upset.

***

Knowing Aisha's unwell condition from Abah, Ummi and Zainab force Aisha to go home and rest at home. They also asked Alvian to go home with his wife.

Finally because they were forced. Aisha went home with her husband.

Throughout the journey, the two remained silent.

Until they got home, the two were still silent to each other.

Alvian refrained from speaking, asking or saying anything, knowing his wife's mood was not good considering the incident earlier this afternoon, therefore he chose to be silent rather than get an answer or a word that would surely strike his heart.

Alvian went into his room, laid his body on the bed.

Suddenly Aisha went into the room, making her wake up instantly.

"What's wrong?" ask Alvian curiously.

"Will a husband ask that when his own wife enters their bedroom?"
