Between Me, You and God

Episode 17: Be true to yourself

Love comes from the heart.

While the heart is a lump of flesh that resides in our body that is easily touched because of a person's kindness, attitude, behavior or sweet treatment.

We do not know to whom this heart will fall, sometimes this heart falls on someone who is right but does not rule out the possibility of this heart falling on someone who is not right.

Sometimes Allah willfully drops this heart on the one who is not right, someone whom Allah does not like because the criteria of that person are contrary to the norms that Allah has set in the Qur'an. It is simply to test our love and loyalty to God

"Do we love God more or love His creatures more"

Alesha takes the day to a back garden near the campus. The atmosphere around the park looks shady considering that now is spring. The flowers blooming around the garden create a romantic atmosphere. It is suitable for young couples who want to spend their holidays with their partners. But not for today, because today is Monday so the atmosphere of the park is not too crowded as usual there are only a few people who pass around the sidewalk or just sit around enjoying the afternoon atmosphere.

Alesha sat herself on one of the wooden benches that were enough for 3 people to sit on with the harry still trailing behind her.

"Sit down" said Alesha softly without seeing the interlocutor she was talking to.

The girl opened the box she had been carrying and with her left hand she picked up a small cotton swab while the other hand was busy dripping a few drops of red medicine on the cotton pad, after it was felt enough that the girl leaned closer to Harry's face then without giving Alesha cue rubbing half pressing the wound in the corner of Harry's lower lip.

"www.." Harry ringis. When he began to realize the pain around the area of his lower lip because Alesha who accidentally pressed the wound too much in the hope that the drug can quickly absorb.

"Sha. Could you please slow down" asked Harry gently half-begging. Harry smiled faintly without Alesha noticing. In his heart the young man felt that even though the girl who was now in front of him had a cold and sullen look on his face but he still saw that in fact Alesha still cared about him the proof of the girl was even until willing to take the time just to treat Harry's wounds which Harry said were actually minor injuries.

Alesha heard when Harry was in pain and asked him to slow down his hand when applying the medicine to his wound, but the girl chose to keep quiet and chose not to answer a single word of the young man's speech just Alesha let her hands move and was more careful.

The girl rubbed the medicine all over the corner of Harry's wound without exception and then she put a plaster on the wound so that the wound was not infected.

"Udah is done" Alesha said after she finished putting the plaster on Harry's wound. The girl closed her p3k box again and was about to leave without asking Harry for permission, even if it was just a small talk.

"Sha. You promised me a chance to talk to you, right..?!"

Harry half-collared and moved from his seat trying to remind Alesha who was currently standing staring at her own shoes.

"You know I'm the reason why you've been avoiding..?" harry's pedicab

"Let's Al**esha you can" Alesha's inner self encouraged herself not to waver with the decision she had taken.

"Harrry. I'm sorry I can't return your feelings" he murmured softly without even looking at Harry's facial expression.

"Do you not like me..?" harry asked with sharp eyes as if he was intimidating Alesha.

"It's not so" Alesha replied while throwing her face the other way

Now Harry can only see behind Alesha's veil

"Then what is Sha..?!" Said Harry who was still curious about Alesha's reason

Alesha turned her gaze forward, but she did not meet Harry's face because Harry was standing next to Alesha

"Harrry. Even though I explained it you won't understand..!" alesha was full of irony. The girl stopped her sentence before returning to her sentence.

"Then from that explain everything to me Sha. Make me understand all the things I don't know..!" harry said no less firmly

"I don't want to build a relationship with someone who eventually the relationship should run aground in the middle of the road" murmured Alesha softly with teary eyes.

"I'm really in love with you Sha" Harry said fieryly. As powerful as he was trying to convince his girlfriend with his words.

"I'm serious about you and I have no intention of playing with your feelings"

"I even hope that our relationship can really get to the bottom of things" Harry said, trying to convince Alesha.

the test..

Tears that did not want Alesha to appear in front of Harry finally dripped too.

Alesha wiped away the clear liquid dripping from her eyelids. Then he clucked and smiled wryly at Harry.

"The guarantee..?!" he said he was cynical and half scorned the way of Harry's mind who did not understand what was the scourge between the two.

"You really don't understand clearly what our current position is like Park Harry..!" alesha said with cold intonation.

Alesha left but only two steps later she stopped her footsteps when she heard Harry speak again

"Is it because we're different Sha..?"

Degs..

Alesha's heart aches to hear Harry recall the harsh reality that made her choose to stay away from Harry

Harry stepped forward towards Alesha. He is now in front of Alesha while Alesha is still faithful looking down precisely staring at the grass around her snaker shoes.

"Look at me Sha. And answer my question..?!" Screeches Harry. Now the look on his face had turned cold

Alesha looked up at Harry, though she did not look at him completely.

"If you already know the answer why still ask..?!" alesha replied no less coldly

One minute..

Two minutes..

Three minutes..

Three minutes passed and no conversation was made between the two. Both of them are silent trying to control the emotions that stir in each of them.

"If there's nothing to question I want to go home .Poor mang Udin has been waiting for a long time"

Alesha ran away from Harry. While Harry, after the death of Alesha leleki dropped himself on the ground, he sat down with both hands joined together to hold his head.Seriously for whatever sake the catfish so very looks frustrating.
