All the families seemed happy to hear the progress of Aditia's condition. Mr. Subari and Ms. Hanum bowed in gratitude with Aditia's progress.

"Come, Mas, eat again. It's delicious." Inayah asked Aditia to eat a lot.

"comeplate. We eat together. I don't want my wife thin like this back to Indonesia."

"Who is skinny. My body is like this, Mom."

Aditia asked Inayah to open her mouth. Mr. Subari and Ms. Hanum are happy to see her ex-boyfriend back as he was.

"Mas, I hope aditia after this no more exams for them."

"Mother, life is full of tests. And the test is to increase one's faith. You want to take a class at school, an exam, right?"

Hanum's mother confirmed her husband's words.Hanum's mother's phone rang. A family group call was there.

"How are the kids there, Ms Hanum?" ask Mother Fatimah and it looks like all the families joined the group call.

"This is thanks to the prayers of his mother Inayah. Aditia is now progressing and Alhamdulillah Inayah is also good," explained Ms. Hanum.

"Mother, so when do you come home?" alina asked with Rayyan beside her.

"Depends on your brother, Alin. How is granddaughter oma. Rayyan's healthy?"

Rayyan simply nodded her head and was answered by Alina. "Good oma. Rayyan is so good."

Inayah now returns to Aditia's room where Ms. Hanum seems to be talking. Inayah just returned from accompanying Aditia to do an examination.

Rayyan looks on the screen engrossed with her world. Inayah was unable to endure her longing for her son.

"Calm down, brother, we'll bring Rayyan close. I'm still waiting for Teo's brother to finish his work at the office" Alina said with Teo beside her playing with Rayyan.

"Alin, have you..." Hanum's mother smiled. Mother Hanum's words invited the laughter of all the group residents who participated in the video call.

Seen Teo was embarrassed by his mother-in-law's question. Alina is like that too. Alina was embarrassed to remember that.

Alina immediately came out of the group call that made Aditia and Inayah shake their heads with Ms. Hanum. Until finally after Inayah spoke with her mother with others, their conversation was over.

"What's your check today, Adit?

"As you can see. All has been progress, Mother." replied Aditia who is now sitting on the patient bad with help by Inayah.

Hanum's mother was so sorry to see the condition of her son. Aditia's straight hair has now become bald, even her son's body looks thin. Hanum's mother was truly grateful that Inayah was the wife of her son.

"What are you and Dad staring at us?" tanya Inayah and Aditia hold Inayah's hand.

"Mother is very grateful to you, Inayah. You took good care of Aditia. You are so loyal to be his wife. What would my son be if he had a wife...."

"Dad, our mother is just salute to you, son." cut Mr. Subari.

"Dad, Mother. As Aditia's sister's wife, this is my dedication to my husband. Caring for my husband as far as I can. Not just in his health.

Pain can be good for us if we are patient. So it is appropriate that we accept each other's condition, both when healthy and sick." Inayah turned towards Aditia who had been staring at Inayah.

Aditia looked at his wife incessantly and again clasped Inayah's hand.

"A ustadz once said, 'Many people who do not interpret calamity are part of a plan of God to elevate the person's status and position. Always misfortune is interpreted with sadness, distress, adversity, and discomfort.' That's what I've read." said Inayah.

"And he also wrote that if 'Must be the language of love and compassion, the inner encouragement is worship and sincerity. Because caring for the sick is not playful, our patience is tested, especially the sick is the husband of the leader and breadwinner of the family, ' as it was in his writing." Inayah shed tears saying that.

"Sister Aditia as my now ailing husband is a test for me as his wife. God has tested me with many things. But I don't have to give up. I'm sure God lowering this test is a form of his love for us, Mother." Inayah returned her tears. "God must have arranged a very beautiful scenario in my household between me and Mas Aditia. Yes, it is, Mas."

"Enough, Honey. God willing, janna for you." Aditia hugged Inayah and kissed his wife's forehead.

Ms. Hanum and Mr. Subari were quite silent for a long time to hear and digest every sentence that Inayah said. Tua Subari clasped Mother Hanum's hand and said, "I'm sorry for everything I ever did to you." Mr. Subari hugged his wife.

Aditia and Inayah just smiled to see their parents more and more days Aditia saw her father really a lot of changes.

"Who's calling, honey?" tanya Aditia saw the incoming call on Inayah's phone.

"Asifa" said Inayah.

Mr. Subari raised his head. 'The nature must have wanted to vent the matter of Zaki', thought Mr. Subari smiling.

Seeing her husband smile after hearing Sifa's name mentioned, Hanum's mother smiled as well.

***

While Sifa was having a phone conversation with Inayah, Umm Humairah knocked on Sifa's door.

"Sifa, there's a guest son."

"Who ummi?!" tanya Sifa decided on her call with Inayah.

"Son Zaki."

"What?! She again?"

"What is your relationship with Zaki, Sifa?" tanya Ummi Humairah more curious.

"There's no coke, Ummi. It's just that, Mr. Zaki did often go to Adit's sister's office because Mr. Zaki is one of the shareholders in the office," explained Sifa.

"alright. Meet first Nak Zaki. not good guests come to the house and we as the host ignore," message Ummi Humairah before entering the kitchen.

Lazy to meet Zaki, Sifa finally came out.

"Please sit down" said Sifa. "Why did you come here again? There's nothing I'm left behind, is there, in the master's car?" sifa Ledek.

"There was. Our contract of employment."

"Since when have I had a contract of employment with, sir?"

"Since today, you have to." Zaki's gaze on Sifa was hoping that she would marry him.

It was actually Zaki's wrong way of treating Sifa.

"What do you mean. What'sthis?" Sifa began to read the agreement signed by her without Sifa knowing since when she agreed.

"I never signed this, sir. You don't make up, huh?" annoyed Sifa. as if her head was horned. She couldn't believe it she just saw.

"I'm not going to do this stupid thing! How many times have I told you. I want to marry the man who loves me. Not to a man like you, sir."

Zaki laughed looking at Sifa's annoyed face.

"All right, it's okay. But, don't blame me if Ummi finds out with this." Zaki stood up from his place threatening Sifa to show him the contract paper.
