🌹HAPPY READING🌹
Al drove his car at full speed. His hands clasped tightly to the steering wheel of the car, evaporating all the emotions he held back.
Ten minutes on the way, Al gets home. In a hurry, Al enters the house.
"Abang," called Kina who saw Al enter the house by running towards the guest room.
Al. He saw Kina and Bella sitting together in front of the television. With a certain step Al approached them.
"Adek, Brother borrowed his Belanya for a moment, yes. There are important things you have to talk about" Al said.
Kina nodded obediently. He did not dare to refute seeing his brother's serious face.
"Follow me, Bella" said Al and walked out of the house.
"So, I'm talking to Al first, yes" Bella told Kina.
Kina nodded along with her sweet smile. Bella wakes up from her seat and follows Al's long steps.
Al enters the car and Bella follows.
"Where are we going, Al?" ask Bella. Al just kept quiet and didn't answer Bella's words.
Until it was felt the car was far enough from home, Al pulled his car over.
"Read" said Al, giving the map he had received from Ibra to Bella.
With doubt Bella accepted the map. "Is this Al?" ask Bella.
"Open up and read it" said Al.
Bella slowly opens the map. Bella seriously read every word on the paper.
"Al," call Bella Iirih.
"Why can't be patient waiting for me, Runa?" ask Al.
"I'm sorry, Al," said Bella.
"Why hide all this?" ask Al again.
"Sorry, Al. I just don't want you to see me in this state, Al," Bella said.
"If you were honest long ago, it probably wouldn't be like this, Runa. You choose to follow man rather than your own God" said Al.
"Sorry, Al," said Bella, not daring to look at Al.
"It's getting harder for us to be together, Runa. It turns out that my wait has been in vain. My patience in seeking you is over. But what, I'm disappointed, Runa," said Al.
"Al, I'm doing this because I'm expecting my Papa, Al's affection" Bella said.
"You expect the love of your Father by making God hate your deeds, Runa? Not happy but our lives will never be calm, Runa," said Al.
"I know I was wrong, Al. I know I lied about my beliefs. But I have a reason, Al," Bella said with tears streaming down her cheeks.
"There is no justification for an apostate Muslim, Runa," Al said firmly.
Al closed his eyes for a moment, trying to calm his emotions.
"I have no right to judge. Trust is the right of every human being. If that's your choice, I'm not forcing. Because in my religion, peace is preferred" said Al.
Bella tried to reach Al's hand which was still tightly gripped by the steering wheel.
"Part of limits, Runa!" al said firmly stop the movement of Bella.
"Wouldn't there be a chance for me to get your heart back, Al?" ask Bella.
"I'm nobody who has the right to give you a chance" Al said.
"I can go back to my religion, Al," Bella said.
"Trust is not to be played with, Runa!" al was firm.
"Hiks, it's as hard as your heart Al" said Bella Pilu.
"Prepare, tomorrow I'll take you back to England. You're better off there with your life" Al said.
Bella shook her head strongly. "You can dump me anywhere, Al. But don't take me back to England" Bella pleaded with grief.
Al cares about his hearing. His disappointment made him unable to think clearly. Al immediately returned to running his car to return home.
Five minutes, Al's car was back at his house. Regardless of Bella, Al got out of the car and entered the house with a little run. Bella just looked at Al who disappeared with a sad look. Bella harshly wiped her tears from being seen. Seems enough, Bella got out of the car and followed entering the house.
.....
Magrib's time is over. Al folded the prayer mat he used and placed it on the hanger of the prayer mat and its sheath.
Al walked towards the balcony. Looking at the back garden of the house which is very well maintained by Uminya.
"If you don't lie, Runa. We've been together for a long time" murmured Al slowly.
While engrossed in her daydreams, Dee comes into Al's room.
"Abang," call Dee.
"Al on the balcony, Umi," said Al half-screaming.
Dee walked to the balcony to meet Al.
"Al, get ready, gih. There will be guests coming" said Dee.
"Who, Umi?" ask Al.
"His family is Kinzi and Kenzo. All celebrating the cooperation of Abi companies with their family companies" Dee said.
Al nodded in agreement with Uminya's words.
"Yes, get ready. They are coming soon" said Dee.
"Yes, Umi," said Al immediately went to get ready.
.....
Now the living room of the Ibra residence looks very crowded. The two families were seen chatting. Bella who felt bad finally told Dee to make her drink.
"Umi, let Bella make a drink first, yes," said Bella.
"There's a waiter, son," said Dee.
"It's okay, Umi. Excuse me, Umi," said Bella immediately went to the kitchen.
It was not out of Al's sight. He did talk to Kenzo, Kinzi and Kina, but his eyes could not be separated from Bella.
Bella held her chest that felt tight to see Al who was very close to the very beautiful hijab girl earlier. All Bella knows is her name is Kinzi.
"He was more everything than me. Should I know myself and start forgetting my expectations?" mumbling Bella slowly.
"His family is complete, harmonious, he is also veiled and closes his aura. While Me?" bella looked at herself.
Not wanting to be caught by her grief, Bella immediately helps the waiter make a drink. Ten minutes, drinks when finished. Bella holds one of the trays containing several glasses of juice and snacks. The rest were taken by the waiter.
Carefully, Bella walked towards the living room. Bella's body was not energetic to hear their conversation in the living room. With all her might, Bella walked closer.
While moving the juice from the tray to the table, Bella's tears fell already upon hearing Kinzi's parents talk.
"What about Kinzi and Al's match, Mr Ibra?" ask Anggara, Papa Kinzi and Kenzo.
Bella quickly wiped her tears. With a slightly trembling hand Bella put down the glass containing the juice.
"Be careful, son," Dee said as the glass nearly fell out of Bella's hands.
"Sorry, Umi," said Bella softly without seeing Dee. she was afraid Dee would see her red eyes.
"I gave up the matchmaking business with my own son, Mr. Anggara. It's about their future. Only he has the right to decide" Ibra replied.
"What do you think, Al?"
