Behind the Veil (Aisha)

Meissya

The woman smiled at Lela's surprise, she then walked closer to Lela.

"May I tell you something?" he asked while trying to hold back his laughter.

Lela fell silent.

"Your husband deserves a much better woman than you."

Lela immediately looked at the face of the woman in front of her in surprise.

The woman held her laugh.

"Is that woman like you?" lela asked suddenly as well while holding her smile looking at the woman from top to bottom.

The woman laughed while spinning to show her beautiful body wrapped in sexy clothes.

"of course. I'm better than you. I'm beautiful and sexy. But more importantly I'm not as mentally ill as you."

Lela laughed, she took a step forward approaching the woman in front of her.

"If you think that expensive candy is candy that is not wrapped and has been covered with flies, then it looks like you are the one who is sick."

The woman immediately closed her mouth, shocked by Lela's words.

He was about to say something but suddenly Zayn and a friend came up to the two.

"Meissy." Zayn was astonished to see his friend with Lela.

Meisya immediately pretended to smile at Lela.

"I forgot I haven't said hello to your wife, so before you go home I want to meet her first. May it?"

"Of course" Zayn replied happily.

Lela smiled at the woman in front of her who now knew her name was Meisya.

"It's nice to meet you." Lela smiled funny.

"of course. I'm also." Meisya replied with a friendly smile.

Zayn then went to help his friend to move his car.

Meisya looked back at Lela with her sinister face.

"You know the signs of hypocrites?" lela asked quietly with a smile.

Meisya.

"You!" Lela smiled.

Meisya glared at him even more, but she could not get angry or say anything for fear that Zayn would see her.

"Oh yes, there are two qualities that are impossible to accumulate in a hypocrite. The first is a good temperament, calm and authoritative, the second is the lack of religious knowledge," said Lela with the end of seeing Meisya's appearance from top to bottom while shaking her head.

Meisya is increasingly upset, but what power Zayn comes to approach the two and invites Lela to leave.

On Travel.

Lela pensive. He recalled the words of Meisya who knew about his illness. She glanced at her husband not expecting that Zayn would share a story with someone else let alone a woman about his condition.

Lela fell silent. I want her to ask the reason why her husband had to tell her about his illness to his friend. But his mouth was muddled, as disappointment had taken hold of his heart, he chose to remain silent.

Seeing his wife continue to be silent, Zayn felt that Lela was angry with him, because she had accidentally seen him chatting together with Meisya earlier.

"Are you angry?"

"Why frighten my anger. Fear the wrath of Allah SWT who does not like women and men who are yktilat (mixed) so as to mix fire and firewood."

Zayn.

She's speechless. He knew his wife was disappointed, after accidentally seeing him chatting together with Meisya.

But if he can, it feels like Zayn explained if they are not chatting normally, but are talking about it, about the trauma experienced by Lela who has now slowly healed.

Zayn wanted to tell Lela that Meisya, who is a psychology scholar, had helped him quite a lot, giving him advice on how to deal with his wife's trauma, giving him a lot of knowledge about psychological trauma, mental illness and whatnot. Meisya has also recommended a good psychiatrist and therapist to help his wife recover.

But Zayn chose not to tell him because it was Meisya's own request. According to him, maybe his wife does not need to know, he is afraid if Lela thinks she has spread her disease to everyone.

In the rest of the trip, both were silent.

Lela was filled with disappointment still had many questions on her mind. Could Zayn be tired of his condition and looking for comfort in other women.

Could it be like that? Humans can change. Patience has its limits and her husband is still a man. It takes a woman to satisfy her desires that she does not get from him as a wife. Lela started thinking things out. Her husband may have been in a special relationship with the woman, otherwise it is impossible for their relationship to be that close that Zayn told the woman about his illness.

Moreover, the attitude of the woman was so showing her hatred for Lela. He feels much better and deserves Zayn better than he does who is said to have a mental illness.

Nightfall.

Without knocking on the door first, Lela opened the door to her husband's room, Zayn who had just been wearing clothes was just stunned to see his wife walking up to him in sexy clothes with long hair.

Lela in her dreamy nightgown walked slowly and steadily closer to her husband.

Until she arrived before her husband, Lela trembling slightly and looked at Zayn's face.

Zayn simply fell silent in astonishment.

Lela ventured to raise her hand, slowly trying to bring her hand closer to her husband. Lela tried to touch her husband.

With trembling hands, she finally managed to touch her husband's chest from just a little stick, until slowly Lela more and more close her hands to the husband's chest.

Zayn bengong looked at Lela's hand on her chest.

He then saw the face of Lela who was trying to hold back her fear. With her trembling body, her pale face and watery eyes.

Zayn retreated to let Lela's hand slip from her chest.

Lela's shocked. She looked at her husband's face.

Zayn shook his head.

"What's wrong with you?" tanyanya.

Lela did not answer, only tears that then seeped out of both eyelids.

Zayn seemed to understand, Lela had wanted to carry out her obligations while she was not ready. He was sure that Lela was forced to do this because she saw him chatting with Meisya. Lela must have thought things out to him as well as Meisya.

"Any single night without you, just relax, I won't find anywhere else."
