The time indicator is already at the number one in the morning, but Intan has not been able to sleep well. He was busy staring at Aji who was sleeping on the patient's waiting bed. Intan continued to develop her smile when she saw that calm looking face. The sweet smile faded when in Intan's mind came a question that made his body crumble.
"What if she asks for her rights as a husband?"
Intan closed her eyelids for a moment when she imagined it. Honestly, he was afraid to do it because of events in the past, a sense of trauma does not seem to disappear from the memory of his brain.
"No! no!" Intan muttered after changing his position. He turned back to look at the ceiling of the room. Her body grew even more bristling as she imagined what if Aji asked for her right after this.
Aji blinked his eyes when he heard Intan's voice. He sharpened his eyes towards Intan, he saw Intan still staring at the ceiling of the room when he should have rest at hours like this.
"Why haven't you slept yet, Tan?" aji asked after sitting beside the bed Intan.
"Emm—maya .. I have not been able to sleep, Gus," Intan said as he rolled his eyeballs.
Aji fused the tip of her eyebrows together because she saw the lie on Intan's face. His hand stretched out to grab onto Intan's left hand, fuming at the back of the hand several times.
"what makes you sleepless?" aji asked while looking at Intan with her shady eyes.
Intan turned her eyes back in all directions, she tried to find the right reason to say to her husband, but it seemed like this time her brain could not work optimally to find an excuse.
"i'm not ready if Gus asks for the right to get a husband" Intan said in a very soft voice, he was embarrassed to say all that, but how else, he had no choice but to be honest.
Aji was just silent with a view that could not be separated from Intan. As much as possible, he had to hold back his laughter because he was anxious to see Intan. Where might he ask for that right at a time when Intan was helpless like this, even the stitch wound on his head was not dry.
"You don't have to think about it, Tan. I won't force you to do your duty before you're ready" Aji said, rubbing Intan's smooth cheek.
"Better now you sleep. You have to rest to heal quickly," said Aji with a sweet smile afterwards, "Don't think about anything that makes you restless, all we can talk about together, okay?" continued Aji with a view that can not be separated from Intan.
Intan was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief after hearing Aji's reply. At least he still has time to prepare himself if it will happen. He will try to forget the painful incident so as not to be afraid again if one day Aji asked for his right.
A soft snore began to sound there. Intan fell asleep after a few minutes of chatting with Aji. After making sure Intan was fast asleep, Aji let go of his hand, he got up from his place and walked to the bathroom to fetch some ablution water.
A third of the night is the best time to give up longing for the Creator. The silence of nature adds to the martyrdom of knitting love with the Khalik. Aji sat cross-legged with his head bowed, his eyelids closed because he was releasing all his worries to Him.
"Thank You for giving me the stifling series of events from the past day. Now, You have replaced it with happiness many times over until I do not believe that all this is real, O Lord,"
"Hamba does not know after this how to, I surrender to You, O Master of the universe. Lead me to set my heart on one belief, that all that happens is of Your will,"
"O Lord, You are the owner of the life that is in this world. Only You can turn the hearts of your people upside down. Therefore, the servant asks that You set the heart of the servant in heaven whom You have sent today."
Meanwhile elsewhere—more precisely at the Al-Khadijah boarding school, there is a girl who is still awake in the third tonight. The girl could not close her eyelids for even a moment. Her tears seemed endless as she lamented the fate of God who was not on her side.
Yes, that girl is none other than Rahma. He cries because he is not willing to marry the girl of his choice. He never thought if finally ummi Sarah was that easy to give his blessing to Aji.
"Why? why am I not his wife?" murmured Rahma with her head leaning against the wall. He sat alone in front of his room, for there was no way he could cry inside, where there were two of his friends there.
It feels so painful if you hold a sense of alone, especially the man of his clan has been officially a husband even though it is only legal in the eyes of religion. He continued to re-mas the tip of his hijab because he could not withstand tightness in the chest.
Rahma does not accept that Aji drops her heart on the tattooed girl. If only he could have stopped the marriage, he would have. Unfortunately, he could only cry and mourn everything that had happened.
"If I can't be the first wife, at least I can still be the second wife" Rahma muttered on the sidelines sobbing.
The girl seemed to have lost all the guidance in her life, she had forgotten all the lessons she had learned in the cottage all this time. The great obsession has overcome everything. A beautiful girl like Rahma should have the provision to get a more perfect man from Aji.
"I don't want Gus Aji to belong to that woman!" rahma said with a straight forward view
The condition of the girl was alarming, She was immersed in the feeling of love that clapped one hand, even the man she had mentioned in prayer did not know the slightest about her feelings.
Time continued to run without being stopped, Roosters began crowing, a sign that soon will enter at dawn. Rahma soon moved from her current place because soon the morning routine will begin. My swollen eyes and my glare were painted on his face because he had not slept all night. He was dissolved in defeat before the war, heartbroken before dating. Rahma swung a step towards the bathroom, perhaps flashing her head in the morning blind could clear her mind at this moment.
"I have to figure out a way before Gus Aji confirms her marriage later" Rahma muttered as she flushed her body with tap water.
