Behind Aisha's Veil

Awaiting you

Aisha then turned her body, shocked to find out that Alvian had been standing right in front of her.

"I heard it all." Alvian looked sad, staring fixedly at his wife's face.

Aisha looked back at her husband.

"We will explain everything to Brother Ahmad, I'm sure that later my brother will understand."

"It's natural that if your brother is angry, what I did to you first is wrong." Alvian looks very sorry.

Aisha speechless.

"But I want your brother to know that I've realized my mistake. I'm trying to fix everything."

"I know," replied Aisha slowly.

"Aisha!" Both of them were shocked to hear someone calling Aisha.

Anita and her mother walked up to them both.

With the sumringah Anita approached Aisha closer.

"Thank you."

"Thanks to you I can work again at this Hospital" Anita said happily.

An upset Alvian would say something to Anita, but Aisha held her back, holding her husband's hand. It was known by Anita, she immediately smiled happily at Alvian's anger.

"Why do you look so angry?" anita asked Alvian pretending not to know.

Alvian would answer but again Aisha held him back.

"Is it because I told your sister-in-law everything?" Anita looked at Alvian innocently.

"Aisha. Is your brother angry?" Anita now sees Aisha.

"May your brother not be angry. And may your marriage be fine" continued Anita again without waiting for Aisha's answer.

"My brother is angry. But our marriage will be fine. I make sure of that." said Aisha with a smile.

"Oh yeah? Thank goodness then." Anita looks a little irritated.

"Sorry to disappoint you. Your attempt to ruin our marriage will never work." Aisha looked at Anita.

Anita shocked. She stared hard at Aisha.

"Whatever your efforts, however you try, it will all be free, let alone destroyed. Not even a shake. Our household will be fine."

Anita looks furious. She widened her eyes looking at Aisha.

"Feel in trust in yourself. Let's see what happens next."

"Yes. Let's see it later."

Anita saw Alvian.

"I know it's impossible for me to get you back. So, if you can't be with me, be mine, then you can't be with another woman either."

Desi holds her daughter's hand, knowing that her daughter has been emotionally ignited by all of Aisha's words.

Desi then invites Anita to leave, she does not want Anita to make a scene again, or if it happens it is certain there will be no more opportunity for her daughter to work at this Hospital.

Nightfall.

After the incident last afternoon, Ahmad became more silent, as well as Aisha who seemed to feel guilty.

Telling Ummi to her would only give her the burden of thought, she knew that if the mother would not be able to do anything or take any action other than just be sad to think about her daughter's fate.

The night was getting late, Ahmad who had just returned to the Hospital after dropping off Ummi and Zainab, was shocked when Alvian was waiting for him in front of Abah's room.

"Sister. I want to explain everything." Alvian looked at Ahmad expectantly.

"I don't know what you want to say." Ahmad sat on the bench.

"You should know if big brother is so disappointed you've treated our sister like that. All my sisters would also be disappointed to know this, especially with Abah and Ummi."

"Aisha is too precious for us for you to hurt and you are wasted. Especially not only by you but your boyfriend has also insulted and humiliated my sister in front of everyone. What's Aisha's fault with you guys that she got all that?"

"Sister didn't actually want to tell Abah, knowing this would only make her disappointed and sad but it seemed like she didn't want to have to keep telling this matter to our extended family."

"Because you can't make your own decisions. Even though the eldest brother but the decision remains in Abah's hands."

"Regardless you've changed or not, still in a relationship with the woman or not. But there are more important things you should know. Your current marital status."

Alvian shocked.

"Religious laws on marriage are very sensitive. My husband spoke a little wrong. Then the status of marriage becomes gray."

"So it's better. We wait for Abah to heal and tell him. We'll know how he behaves after knowing this." Ahmad stood up from his seat.

Alvian was still sitting lethargic on the bench.

"I was wrong brother. All my words are wrong." Alvian looks regretful, recalling all his previous words to Aisha.

"So it's better for Aisha to come home with us tomorrow." Ahmad walked towards the door.

Ahmad opened the door and entered.

Alvian seemed very frustrated.

A few moments later.

Aisha came out of Abah's room. She saw her husband approaching and sat down next to him.

Alvian glanced at his wife. He who looked very sad and confused again lowered his head.

"Tomorrow to come home with your parents" Alvian said sadly.

Aisha lowered her head.

"Wait me. I'll come get you. I'll definitely take you back."

"Take it this is punishment for all my treatment of you. When I love you and want to fix everything, start from the beginning with you, not want to lose you. At that time your extended family knew everything. But they deserve to know all my mistakes to you."

"If it's gonna be hard for me to make them trust me again, convince them again."

"Because of the great disappointment and heartache in me."

"But I'm not giving up. I will fight to get you back. As hard as it may be to take their trust again, I won't give up."

"Because I know it's a reply I have to accept. It's too easy for me to just get you to remember all my sins, I have to fight first to get you. Because you are valuable. I'll assure your whole family of my love and earnestness so that they return you to me."

Aisha raised her face.

"I'll be waiting for you."

"Fight with all your might and bring me back with you."

"Sometimes two people have to separate in order to realize how much they want to be together."
