Behind Aisha's Veil

Andre

While advancing his luxury vehicle quite fast, Andre again remembered all Aisha said to him. The words that always struck his heart to make him silent without twitching.

Andre seems annoyed, he feels defeated by a woman he initially thought was tacky and outdated, but who would have thought it turned out he was wrong, the woman he thought was nothing was a smart, straightforward and courageous woman who all his words showed the quality of herself as a woman who was certainly highly educated.

Not only that, he was also wrong about his appearance, behind his appearance that was very closed, even to the face - even he covered, at first he thought the woman was ordinary, just plain, it turned out to be stored in an enchanting natural beauty.

Ja. Despite trying to deny it, but he still admitted that his wife Alvian was beautiful, even for himself who was surrounded every day beautiful women, she said, Andre still feels that the beauty of Aisha and the women he knows is very different. There is one advantage that makes Aisha's beauty can hypnotize anyone who sees it.

Andre immediately shook his head, trying to shake off all the things about Aisha that kept milling around in his head.

She tries to tell herself that if Aisha is still an ordinary village woman, she is a pretentious woman who feels that her life is right.

Next day.

After a long time of not experiencing nausea vomiting, this time suddenly Aisha felt it again, since this morning she continued to feel nauseous to make her go back and forth into the bathroom.

The mother who knew about it looked a little anxious, finally she called Alvian even though Aisha had forbidden it.

Of course Alvian was made to panic, he felt anxious and worried about Aisha's state.

"I'm fine, it's been a little light." Aisha tries to calm her husband down, they talk on video call

"I'll call Anita, I'll ask her to come over there to see how you're doing." Alvian looked very anxious to see his wife's pale-looking face on her phone screen.

"No need, don't bother him, if he's on the phone he'll definitely come right away leaving all his patients who need him more."

"Well then, but are you really feeling good?"

"Yes." Yeah." Aisha nodded while looking at the face of the husband she had missed.

They continued to talk while Alvian still had time before attending the seminar the last day began.

"Finally tomorrow I'll be home" said Alvian looking happy.

Aisha just smiled.

"I've missed you so much. You know this is the longest week of my life."

"Oh yeah?"

"Didn't you believe?"

Aisha shook her head while holding back a laugh. Teasing husband.

"Why don't you believe it?"

"Because there must be a lot of beautiful women."

Alvian smiles.

"Yes dear. There are many beautiful women here, but none of them I'm lyricizing" replied Alvian seriously.

Aisha smiled happily.

"You know, baby. Among the toughest test of men is to resist the temptation of beautiful women outside the house. Only a man whom God has blessed can subdue his gaze. I know and believe that my husband would be like that."

"I'm sure you're a loyal husband. A husband who is able to take care of himself when I am not around, who is able to keep my name, defend my name, and always privileging my presence even though we are not together."

"Thank you for believing in me."

***

She gave warm milk to her daughter-in-law.

"Thank you mom. But now I'm fine. Mom and dad don't have to worry."

Mom and Dad look relieved.

"Son. Be patient, Mother was like this when pregnant with your husband, even until now I still remember how it felt to feel nausea and vomiting like you."

"Yes Mother. God willing I will be patient in going through and through all my pregnancy processes because I know the rewards and rewards that God gives for every pregnant and giving birth, besides Allah also elevates us, God also takes away our sins if we are patient in living them."

Mom smiled immediately.

"That's right, son. All the pain and pains of pregnancy and childbirth are not in vain, for Allah has paid for them with a great reward."

"Although very eager to get pregnant again, but God only entrusts the mother with a child alone, but the mother is very grateful, because after a long time the mother and your father are waiting for the presence of children, the presence of children, finally Alvian comes the most beautiful gift that God has given us."

Aisha speechless. He recalled the story of Ummi telling the story of his mother and father-in-law who had to wait long enough to have a child, so that the presence of Alvian at that time along with the birth of Ummi's fourth child, brother Zainab, was like a miracle for his mother and father-in-law.

Aisha approached Mom, she then suddenly hugged her tightly.

"Mother, if our desires are not in accordance with what is expected, we must remember that God's plan must be better, because man designs with ideals, but God designs it with love."

Mother nodded with a smile in the arms of her beloved daughter-in-law.

Next day.

Alvian had just gotten off the plane, he was walking hurriedly towards someone who was already waiting for him.

Andre smiled happily to see Alvian approaching him, after being close they immediately embraced tightly. These two brothers who had not met for a long time each other expressed their longing.

Andre then took Alvian into his car.

"It's a good thing you're back today because if we don't see each other tomorrow."Andre then told me that tomorrow he had to return to Singapore to take care of his work.

They then chatted along the way to the house of Alvian parents, Andre who deliberately picked up his brother was intent on spending his last day in Indonesia with Alvian and his parents, because they were his only family now.

"I've met your wife."

"Oh yeah?"

"I thought you were going to marry Anita, but apparently you had to give up on your parents' desire to marry the woman of their choice."

"I'm even grateful that they married me to Aisha."

Andre's shocked.

"I didn't accept it at first. But you know that right now I even love her so much."

"loving her? That easy?"

"Everyone will love it immediately if they know him more closely." Alvian smiled to herself remembering all the things that made her like Aisha.

Andre finally believes that Alvian does love Aisha, from the look on his face now that beamed to remember his wife.

---

Alvian had reached home, he was greeted by both his parents and his wife.

After greeting his father and mother, Aisha approached him and kissed his hand, Alvian who was eager to hug his wife tried to restrain himself because there were his parents and Andre there.

Mother assisted by Aisha then prepared lunch for them, after which they all had lunch together, except Aisha who apparently still felt a little nauseous to not taste good to eat, she just sat down next to her husband to accompany her.

Quietly Andre noticed how the attitude of Alvian who treated his wife well, from the look of his eyes he was even now very sure if Alvian not just love him, but very, very love his wife.

It made him a little fed up, he was surprised by men who could love one woman only.

"When are you getting married?" alvian asked to look at Andre as they chatted together after finishing eating.

Andre smiles.

"Wedding. I haven't thought about it or maybe rather I didn't think about it."

"Why? You are well established, age is also enough, your career is also good. Marry your life will be more perfect."

"Indeed. Compared to you I am in fact more successful and established, your career is just a way in place, becoming a doctor is not like being an entrepreneur whose career can continue to grow. I can buy anything I want. As beautiful as any woman I can get, they'll even queue up to be my wife. But I don't want to be like you."

Alvian looked surprised by Andre's words.

"I do not want to submit to one woman, after all if without marriage I can be happy, why should I get married? Without getting married I can change women every day as I see fit." Andre laughed, looking at Alvian who seemed to be in disbelief with what he heard.

"My husband." Aisha who apparently accidentally heard Andre's words approached the two while carrying a tray containing drinks in her hand.

"Why not if someone humbles you, God is proud of you. My husband's view of man is limited, while God's view is infinite, for what many men like but God is wrathful." Aisha looked at her husband gently with a smile while keeping a tray on the table.

Aisha then glanced at Andre at a glance.

"If you had known that we would die over our habits. Fear if your age stops above the motions you are enjoying."
