Chapter 41. About Taste

Aditia is confined to her room after Inayah suddenly refuses her employment contract. Aditia believes there is something hidden in Inayah.

"Teo, find out what problem Inayah is facing. Find out also the condition of Al-hikmah's hut."

"Good sir."

"Find out now!"

"But sir, this morning we're going to have a meeting with the shareholders."

"Why didn't you say that."

"It's my purpose to convey that, sir," protested Teo.

"You could've dodged it." Aditia stood up from her place.

Aditia and Teo headed for the meeting room all waiting for the director.

The meeting age, Aditia and Teo head to the cafe and see Alina with Asifa.

"Isn't that Alina and Sifa?" ask Aditia.

"Yes, Sir."

"Near Asifa."

"I mean, Mister?" Teo was confused and did not understand.

"Teo, Sifa and Inayah what's the connection?"

"Brother, sir," Teo replied still confused.

"Don't misunderstand me. I'm asking you to approach Asifa instead of approaching with intent ... However, if indeed you have feelings with him it does not matter" said Aditia as it is.

"Master, I already have a girlfriend."

"Find Inayah info through Sifa," said Aditia looking towards Alina and Asifa were enjoying their break.

"I understand, Sir."

Inayah sat in her room. Ustadzah Ana comes and sees Inayah looking bad.

"Ustazah Inayah, what's wrong?"

"I only think of the orphanage Ummi Humairah who is threatened to be exorcised. What am I supposed to do?" Inayah also told me everything.

"Lantas, why not accept that contract work. Santri children here we can still overcome," Advice Ustadzah Ana.

"I just realized, if I can't just leave them. What else the late Aba has told us to always keep this cottage with all our ability. I can't divide my time."

"Lantas, what will Ustadzah Inayah do?"

"I can only hope that one day there will be the best solution to this problem."

***

Go home and stop by the supermarket. At the supermarket back Inayah met with Ms. Hanum with a woman who knows who.

"Daddy?"

Inayah turned her head and saw Mother Hanum with the woman whom Inayah thought was very beautiful.

Inayah praised the woman who was beside Mother Hanum serdang smiling towards her. It looks like Mother Hanum and the girl are so familiar.

"How are you, Inayah?" ask Ms. Hanum.

"Alhamdulillah. I'm good, madam. How about your own?"

"good. I'm very kind. As you see now."

"It just so happens that you're here, Inayah. How about we relax this afternoon? you're not busy, are you?"

"Sorry Madam, but it seems like I can't," Inayah rejected Mother Hanum's invitation.

"I beg Inayah. This is a thank you."

"I mean madam?" ask Inayah wonder.

"Thanks to the book you gave Alina, Alina has changed a lot" Ms. Hanum said with a girl near Hanum's mother. The girl looked at Inayah.

"Don't refuse my request this time," Mother Hanum looked expectantly.

"Alright," Inayah finally agreed to Mother Hanum's request in part because Inayah appreciated Mother Hanum. Tuan Subari's family is one of the donors of Pondok Al-Hikmah.

"Oiya, meet this Ziya."

"Hi, I'm Ziya. Nice to meet you." Ziya extended his hand.

Inayah happily welcomed Ziya's helping hand. "Hi, I'm Inayah."

"Ziya this is Aditia's future fiancee" said Ms. Hanum smiling.

Hearing the word prospective fiancee, somehow Inayah felt something strange with her. What's wrong with her?

"Daddy?" reprimand Mother Hanum saw Inayah pensive.

"Yes, Madam."

"Let your car here. My driver will take her to your house. How's it?"

"It's best not to, ma'am," refused Inayah.

"Yes already. Which is good," replied Ms. Hanum.

"I'll just go with Inayah" Ziya said looking at Mother Hanum.

"All right."

"Sorry before. If I were sassy for you. Were you and Aditia ever close?"

Inayah smiled and said, "Me and Aditia were never close. We just know her."

"really? Have you never had feelings for her?" Ziya asked who continued to be curious about Inayah. Ziya was quite curious about Inayah.

"alright. I won't ask." Ziya was silent again. However, curiosity finally Ziya reopened the next chat.

"You think Aditia's like how's she?"

"You're funny, Miss. Why are you asking me. Aren't Aditia and Miss soon getting engaged? Supposedly as his future fiancee, you should be able to know more about him."

"Me and Aditia don't know each other yet." Ziya's smile towards Inayah.

"You should be able to know your own potential fiancee" said Inayah.

"We've known each other since childhood."

Aditia's the one with attention." Ziya looked towards Inayah who was seriously driving.

"Then, why are you telling me?" This does not understand. Why should he be angry.

Ziya smiled back. "I'm sure. You have the same feelings as Aditia."

"Miss, we better not talk about this." He could no longer control his feelings. He did not understand why his heart was hurting.

"All right."

Arriving at a restaurant, Mother Hanum was already waiting for him. Inayah and Ziya headed to where Mother Hanum was sitting.

Hanum's mother smiled at Inayah and Ziya.

"What do you want to order?"

"I'll come, Madam."

"All right," said Ms. Hanum. Then, order the previous food that has been ordered by him.

"Tante, is Aditia coming?" ask Ziya.

"He's on his way" said Ms. Hanum.

He was silent and played a role in his heart. What did Ibu Hanum mean to take her to this place? Did Mother Hanum invite her to witness Aditia and Ziya's relationship?

He smiled in his heart.

And it's true. A few minutes later, Aditia was. Aditia was also surprised that Inayah was also in the same place.

Before Aditia really back frustrated with Mother Hanum who no ceaseless looking for a life partner.I don't know how many women under her mother to be betrothed for her.

And the thing that Aditia hated the most, could not resist the wishes of her mother. Ziya is a distant family from Hanum's mother and is Aditia's own little friend.

"Daddy? You're here?" Tanya Aditia looked towards Hanum's mother. It was as if the look was asking for an explanation.

"Sit Adit, next to Ziya,"

Aditia really doesn't understand her mother. While Inayah herself looks angry.

Aditia kept staring at Inayah. Mother Hanum saw the tension immediately melt the atmosphere.

"So I met Inayah at the supermarket and asked her to relax here as a form of thanking Inayah. With the book that Inayah gave to Alina."

"Then why did you call me here? What do you mean by mother?" aditia protests.

"No meaning whatsoever. Aren't you and Ziya not going to be engaged for long. So after this. Teach Ziya to look for rings."

Thisayah increasingly did not understand with Mother Hanum what she meant?

"Sorry madam, I have to go. I shouldn't be here" Inayah said.

He stood up from his seat. However, soon Aditia blocked Inayah's path.

"Dad, don't misunderstand this. I don't know about this either. This is all Mom's plan."

"It has nothing to do with me about this. I shouldn't be here."

behind that veil. As much as possible to look okay.It's hard to admit. Inayah has long avoided Aditia because the feeling that is feared will return.

"Dad, listen to me." Aditia continues to chase Inayah to the parking lot.

"Sister Aditia, you shouldn't be like this. Your parents chose the best. Don't disappoint him."

"I have to do as you have done and try to open my heart to the person I don't love, right? No, Inayah. I would never do the same. I want to live with the people I love. And that is you, Inayah."

"Stop, Brother. We're different. And I'm not a decent choice for you."

"Why not worth it? Is it because of your status as a widow? I'm sick of the word status, Inayah. What I wanted to say. I love you, Inayah."

"How many times do I have to tell you, brother. There's no way you and I can be together. Besides I'm a widow. Your parents have chosen a partner for you. Don't disappoint your mother."

"I don't care about any of that, Inayah."

Inayah opened the car door. Aditia is back behind Inayah.

"Married to me, Inayah. Today you reject me, I will never marry in my entire life."

Inayah turned. The two stared at each other with a distance of about a meter.

"Don't torture yourself because of me, Aditia. And don't say that."

"Therefore, accept my proposal, Inayah."
