POV Faisal
Surprised? Sure.
Hearing Kharisa's words asking me to be Rakha's father, and I understand his point, being his father means that I marry his mother.
Married to Kharisa? Once dashed desire to be husband Kharisa and become Rakha's father, when they have not met Rafael and do not know where he is. But just expressing my feelings I did not dare, when I was sure that I loved Kharisa very much, maybe also love him, yes maybe I love him. Because I always kill the feeling of love, do not grow fertile, so I myself saru with my own feelings, which is clear I love Kharisa as well as Rakha. I want to see them happy, when they are sad or something happens to them, I feel it, even when far apart, like there is an inner bond between me and them.
Yes I dare not express my feelings, because I know that Kharisa loves Rafael, as well as Rafael loves Kharisa very much, plus there is Rakha among them, the more I throw away those feelings. Loving her as a sister towards her sister and as a friend is enough for me, as long as I can see them happy.
And when I heard Kharisa asking me to be Rakha's father, I somehow didn't feel happy, maybe because I knew Kharisa said it when his heart was sad, angry and disappointed at what just happened to him.
"Neng.calm down first, don't rush to make a decision." I reminded him again, lest he later regret, living with Rafael and Rakha was his dream since long ago, certainly will not be easy to change the decision if not for being emotional.
"I've been thinking about it since A."
"Have you asked for his guidance? Pray Istikhoroh first if confused to make a decision, so as not to misstep. According to A Isal talking well with Rafael, surely he does not know what Neng talked about with his mother, who knows there is still a way to melt his mother's heart or there is another way out."
I saw Kharisa shaking his head. Starting to come out stubbornly, if it is like this can not be given input, better wait when he is calmer.
"Where's A?" Ask while looking at me. Surely he could not be directed, it seems he was disappointed heavily with his mother Rafael. Most women are easy to forgive, but it is hard to forget, maybe Kharisa can easily forgive his mother Rafael, but can not forget how his mother Rafael incised a wound in his heart, it must have had an impact on his relationship with Rafael. Is he really not going to fight again for his relationship with Rafael? Rafael will certainly not take it for granted, he will continue to fight for Kharisa and Rakha.
"What?" I pretended not to understand his point, somehow I felt that Kharisa was joking even though he looked serious. Asking me to be Rakha's father was like asking me to take him somewhere, he said, or ask me to help with her work in college.
"My request was." He replied while looking down.
"Miss......" I breathed a moment. I wanted to say yes, but my heart felt heavy. There's a lot to consider, nor do I want to just follow my nafs*, so there's no way I'm answering now.
"We should not discuss it now, marriage is part of worship, even the longest worship until we close the age, should be discussed with a cool head." I tried to give input again.
"So A Isal's not ready?" Apparently he still wanted to discuss it and instead showed that he was serious about his request, but of course I can't answer the question now.
"Ah yes..I do not deserve to be a companion A Isal, I am a sinful woman, dirty....."
l
"Miss. A Isal tau Neng is still an emotion, we better talk about it later well, A isal can not answer it now, the marriage is not to play games, a lot to consider " I cut his words immediately.
"Sorry, A Isal should indeed get a better companion than me, the woman who is still holy, sholehah....."
"Neng is not so, it is precisely A Isal who does not deserve to be Neng's companion and Rakha's father." It turned out that I was also not confident to progress to become Kharisa's companion, given his background from the family, while my work alone was still not convincing to be able to meet the needs of Kharisa and Rakha, he said, not to mention my plan to continue my school to the level of S2 which relies on scholarships, although papa Kharisa offers to finance my college, but I do not want to trouble others, better try myself first to the maximum.
" What's not fast? A Isal is good, sholeh, considerate, responsible, dear Rakha, mama also likes A Isal, what is inappropriate. Maybe I don't deserve A's stuff."
"It's not like that Neng, hasn't Neng loved Rafael all this time? More than five years Neng waited for him right, so don't rush to make a decision." I tried to resuscitate him, lest he regret later.
"Miss......" I haven't spoken yet, he cut it again.
"It's easy for me to love you A, Rakha would love A Isal to be her father." O Allah why I am getting heavier to answer yes, when considering the imagined Rakha is the togetherness of Rakha with Rafael, Rafael is the more deserving of being Rakha's father.
"Neng, A Isal can't answer it now, we'd better talk about it later." I saw him bowing his face, I knew he was worried, I did not want to take advantage of this situation, although my little heart also wished I could accompany Kharisa, and make him happy.
I heard a vibration from the HP from inside Kharisa's bag, it looks like there's a phone call. He took. I saw a phone call from Rafael but he dropped it off.
"Why not get caught?" I asked, but Kharisa did not answer it, he read his WA chat, at first glance I saw there were some incoming messages.
"Are we home." He said, while putting his HP into his bag. Thankfully, that meant the conversation was no longer going on. I also followed his hasty steps towards the parking lot where the Kharisa motorbike was located, but soon entered the ashar time.
I drove Kharisa motorbike at medium speed, during the trip he was just silent not heard the slightest sound, but usually he continued to talk even though sometimes I asked him to repeat because it did not sound clear. I also stayed silent, trying to concentrate on the streets that are not too crowded.
Arriving in front of Kharisa's house, I saw Rafael's car parked there. Kharisa opened the gate, I put a motor, parked it in the carport.
As I walked into the living room, I saw a scene that made me feel more confident that Rafael was a proper father to Rakha, other than obviously because he was her biological father, I could see how his sense of responsibility as a father, his affection and concern for Rakha was beyond doubt.
Rafael was standing holding Rakha while rubbing the back of an adorable boy who he said was ill. So remember first that Rakha is sick I carry him, he does like to fuss if he is feverish, want him carried on until he sleeps newly moved to his bed.
I saw Rakha so comfortable in her dady lap, her two little hands hugging her dady burly body as if not wanting to escape from her dady sling.
"Sa, where are you from? Are you ok?" Rafael asked with a worried face, for sure Rafael worried about Kharisa.
"Here let Rakha sleep in the room." Kharisa wants to take over Rakha but Rafael refuses.
"His sleep is not good, let me carry it first, his body still has a fever. Why don't you tell me that Rakha is sick, I can get Rakha some medicine and vitamins." Apparently Rafael just found out that Rakha is sick, Kharisa did not tell him.
'His fever was also just last night, and I still have the heat-lowering drug." Kharisa said with a bent face, I felt bad between them.
"Sa, here's the key to the bike, I'll go to Wa Dini's house first." I also say goodbye, even though I still want to be there, want to meet Rakha for sure, the boy who always makes me miss meeting him, he said, unfortunately he was sick and there was someone who was looking after him that made me calm and leave him. I nodded my head with a smile on my lips at Rafael sign I was saying goodbye to him. He replied with a nod of his head. When I left Kharisa's house I felt like I found the answer to Kharisa's question, and I felt confident about this.
