...For the ugliness that is now upon you, And for the pain that hitherto has not healed, Believe that all wounds will dry up in his time, As long as you hang your hopes only to Him...
...☘️...
Seeing no more opportunities from the narrowness that is always cornered. Khadijah again chose to resign.
Up to two subordinates of Aksara approached and wanted to grab his wrist.
"Stop !!"
Khadijah stopped his second move. And raised both of his palms.
"I can walk by myself"
The words that finally came out of Khadijah's mouth.
With eyes that returned glazed, because Kata was no longer able to represent the taste.In the end Khadija was ready if indeed he would make up for all the mistakes he never did, he said, only one reason Khadijah. Khadijah did not want the name of his parents who had not been brought and targeted for anger Aksara.
Seeing that Khadijah gave himself up, Umi Amina then cried so much, she was not willing if Khadija had to be taken away.
"Welded. Don't do this !"
Umi hoped that if all could return, but presumably the expectations were too high, Khadijah could only resign.
Not only Umi Amina, but also Abah who momentarily fell silent with disbelief.
"Wait !!"
The steps of Aksara and his subordinates stopped, when Abah again stopped them.
Aksara who was standing in the doorway, then turned her body and looked back at Abah with her cold gaze.
"If Memnag Pak Aksa wants to bring Khadijah. I'll let it go. But before that there was one request of mine !"
All eyes seemed to be on Abah, So did the characters who did not expect there was still the courage of Abah to stop his steps.
But hearing Abah's words, not necessarily making the Aksara wrath, instead he wanted to hear what demand Abah still dared to ask of him.
"Please glorify Khadijah before Pak Aksa brings it"
Deg.
Two Khadijah's eyes were perfectly rounded, hearing Abah's sentence, which he clearly knew what she meant.
So also with Umi Amina and Azis standing behind Abah, both of them looked at each other, not believing what Abah Hasim said to the Scriptures.
But unlike Khadijah, Umi and Azis who know his intentions. Aksara actually linked his eyebrows, and it is true that Aksara did not understand what Abah Hasim actually asked of him.
"Sir Ustadz !. Just speak for sure !"
"Say what you want !!"
With a cold gaze and his firm tone Aksara said that to the Founder and leader of the boarding school Darul Qur'an.
"Mikahi Khadijah !"
If it was Khadijah, now it is Aksara who rounded his eyes. Staring in disbelief at his interlocutor.
Indeed, Abah's speech is able to make the Aksara silent for a moment.
Aksara then let out a long sigh and loosened the tie he was wearing. 'Married' Inner Aksara.
"CK"
"What else is this Mr. Ustadz?"
The script that did not understand religion only laughed at Abah Hasim's request before.
"I'm not kidding Mr. Aksa !. Marry Khadijah before you bring her !"
Firmly and clearly Abah said that to the Aksara, and instantly the remark again made the head of the Aksara throb his taste.
"Abahh ???"
It is clear in Abah's eyes how much Khadija was distrustful of what he had previously said to the Scriptures.
"Change ?. What did Abah mean by asking him to marry Dijah ?"
With teary eyes Khadijah asked, to be honest he did not expect that this was a decision he would really accept.
Although Iirih but Aksara can hear clearly Khadija asked that to his Abah.
Abah just kept quiet with a nod of his head, even though Abah knew Khadijah was demanding an answer to his question, but Abah was just trying to make things worse in the future.
Seeing Abah's silence, Khadijah could only lower his face again, storing tears that seemed to never end.
Khadijah believes it is impossible for Abah to do this if not for no reason in his. For this problem may be complied and resigned to be a solution for Khadijah.
Now all eyes are on Aksara who has remained silent since the last time Abah said his seriousness asking Aksara to marry Khadijah.
The hope that Aksara would reject Abah's request may be in Khadijah's mind and mind. But Khadijah could do nothing but pray and follow the path of the Almighty.
"All right !"
"I'll marry him !"
"today. And now it is also !"
Decisive and so clear Aksara said his earnestness to marry Khadijah in the presence of Abah and Umi Amina.
Hearing the earnestness of Aksara, honestly make Abah and others do not believe, if Aksara will just accept without thinking first Abah's offer before her.
While Khadijah also lowered his head, realizing that people like Aksara had never messed around in his speech.
Seeing Abah's silent reaction, then make Aksara ask again.
"How about Mr. Ustadz?"
"Is the offer just Mr. Ustadz's plan to trick me ?"
Aksara always thinks from his point of view without thinking about how the view of religion. It is certainly because he is minimal experience of religion.
"No. Nor have I ever toyed with her Sacral a bond"
Not only Aksara who spoke with confidence in his face, but Abah was also not the slightest doubt on the face of old Abah Hasim.
"alright. If so"
"Make Us !"
"Because I don't have much time to wait !"
Sounds easy and easy Aksara said all that to her interlocutor.
Hearing the words that pitched a challenge from Aksara as well as his future daughter-in-law, Abah can only breathe deeply.
Because Abah actually married Khadijah not as penance or guarantee for his son's mistakes, but rather to keep the Khadijah Maruah to avoid all slander.
"We need to make preparations. Hope you can take a little time to wait !"
Abah was already with complete confidence in his heart, saying if he was ready to marry Khadijah to Aksara.
Seeing Khadijah in confusion and panic, Umi Amina then brought him back in and took Khadijah to his room.
Silent.
Upon arrival in the room, Khadijah then vented all the flavors in the chest of Umi Amina. Khadijah needs nothing but the prayers and embrace of Umi Amina for him.
"Nnn .."
Khadijah's voice trembled thinking what this marriage would be like.
Indeed, everything happens beyond the control of Man, Khadija believes that if all happens because of the destiny of God who has outlined all for himself.
