Flowers from Heaven II

Eps. 43

The time has shown at 09.00 am, as usual Aira came home to work. As he climbed the stairs from the top floor of the house, he was shocked, an unusual sight. Items that have been packed, many bags that have been lined up on chairs.

Aira's confused, so clingak-clinguk.

Umi just came out of her room, and saw Aira.

"Your city has come." said Umi when she saw Aira still being held in the staircase

"Eh Yes Madam.. Assalamu'alaikum" replied Aira, then said his greetings, while approaching Umi and kissing her hand.

"Walaikumsalam.." replied Umi so friendly and gentle

"What's wrong, madam?" asked Aira very curiously

"So this is a pity, Umi will come to live with Umi's children, and will likely go back and forth to Indonesia as well as Kuala Lumpur." said Umi while holding Aira to sit on the sofa

"Oh so.." said Aira responded

"Yes dear, Umi would like to say many thanks to Siti, thanks for everything.. May Allah bring us back together yaa.." said Umi looks so sad, her eyes glazed

Aira who was also very sad, immediately hugged Umi's body reflexively, then shed her tears on Umi's boat.

"Yes Madam, I am also very grateful to the Madam, thank you for your affection for me, thank you for all the knowledge that the Madam has taught me, may Allah repay all the kindness of the Lady with heaven." said Aira at length after releasing his embrace, while continuing to hold Umi's hand

Arka watched the scene from the kitchen door, from behind Aira.

"Aira is so sincere in loving the figure of Oma." said Arka in his mind

"The lady is healthy and still there." continued Aira after wiping her tears

Shaina and Alif who had also just arrived, saw that sad sight from the stairs.

Umi simply nodded in the sweet smile she forced.

"Yes already then, let me help you to prepare again, Madam." said Aira to divert the sad atmosphere

"It's done son." replied Umi quickly

"This is a little money for your services." said Umi while removing the brown envelope from her skirt pocket

"Eh no need Madam, I will not work a full month for now." said Aira refused

"It's okay my Madam sincerely helps the Madam." continued Aira

"I'm also sincere.. Please accept this, you must really need it" said Umi forced while thrusting the envelope back to Aira

"Oh my God, thank you so much, ma'am.. May Allah repay all the kindness of Madam." said Aira and kissed Umi's hand

Shaina, Alif and Arka start to approach when everything looks calmer.

"Assalamu'alaikum." said Shaina and Alif at the same time

"Walaikumsalam.." replied Umi, Arka and Aira together

"Are you ready?" shaina asked while looking over here

"It's Auntie." replied Arka

"It's Shaina." replied Umi following the Ark

Shaina then makes small talk with Aira, whom she also knows.

"Thank you very much Aira has accompanied my mother, may Allah repay your kindness." Shaina said to Aira while gently patting Aira on the shoulder

Aira just smiled sweetly.

Arka and Alif then put things into the car, assisted by employees of the restaurant as well as Aira.

"Mrs, Mister.. May I have a minute to talk to Arka?" aira suddenly said

"Maybe please." replied Umi and Alif simultaneously

Arka and Aira then talked together beside the restaurant building.

"Aira.pardon me, sorry if I hurt your feelings.sorry" said Arka full of regret because at that time.

"I'm fine.. I just want to thank you, thank you for helping me with my problems at that time, thank you very much.. I hope we both live happily together" Aira said with a smile

"Yes, I am also very grateful to you. Thank you for everything." replied Arka.

"Then how's Dira doing?" ask Arka curiously

"Alhamdulillah now Zidan's parents acknowledge Dira, and acknowledge me.. Although our marriage can never be repaired, but at least Dira get the love of his father's family.. Zidan is also still in custody." Aira said

"Alhamdulillah, then, I am glad to continue to be happy, and may you be able to be faithful in the way of Allah.. I say yes" Arka told Aira

"God willing, pray.. Maybe this is the end of our story." said Aira was seen holding back her tears

"We remain friends, don't break the cord yaaa, we can still greet each other calmly" Arka said with a smile, then walked slowly leaving Aira still silent

Today Umi and Arka will be staying temporarily at Shaina and Alif's house. The house above the resto will be transformed into a 2nd floor restaurant, because it is a restaurant that is increasingly advanced, sometimes not enough place if only 1 floor it.

Arka who just finished the thesis, so rarely kekampus, he did it at home. Going to campus only occasionally, for revision to his Lecturer, so indeed he rarely met Aira, Aira also took night classes, because during the day he had to work.

Already 1 month Arka lived in England, he also rarely contacted Zahra or his mother. He was very busy with his script. Arka who rarely communicates gets colder her feelings for Zahra.

Day turns night, Arka just finished with the latest chapter thesis today.

Arka threw her body on the mattress, while checking her cellphone which she had been silent since noon. It turns out there was a message coming in from Zahra.

"Assalamu'alaikum Sis Arka.. How are you doing? Has not exchanged news for a long time.. What about our taaruf? Do you want to continue or not? Because women need certainty." said Zahra through a short message WA

Arka was surprised, what was Zahra to ask like that. Curiously, Arka immediately replied to the message.

"Goddessalam.. Sorry Zahra, I was really busy during the day, my revision failed yesterday so I worked hard today.

Thank God I am healthy, how are you? I'm sorry I don't have any certainty.. Are you someone else to talk to besides me?" reply Arka in that short message, so long

Zahra, who had just prayed Tahajud, found her phone ringing. Curiously, he opened his phone. Reply to Arka's message that he had been waiting for.

Zahra read it, in fact he understood the busyness of Arka, but he was also confused by the situation.

"Alhamdulillah is healthy too Brother.. Thank God if you are also healthy.

Yes, my friend, my profession, both teachers want to directly menghitbah to Abi, because we have known for a long time. Zahra was afraid that Abi would accept it." Zahra responded quickly

Arka who read it immediately was so shocked when she heard the news. What should he do now. Arka has not dared to reply to Zahra's message.

He immediately descended from his room, then met Oma as well as her Tantenya who was relaxing in the back yard, to ask for an opinion.

"If Oma says if she is your heart's choice, then marry her immediately. Don't lose to your busy, busy you won't have an end. Do not make excuses for busyness so make you not married" said Umi advising Arka

"It's really Arka. if she has become your wife can accompany your busy." said Shaina responded.

"Yes, too, yaa.. But Arka doesn't have much time to go back to Indonesia and prepare for marriage now.. This thesis has been awaited by the Lecturer" replied Arka explained

"You can ask Mr. Rio for help, your father's best friend" Umi said

"Yes right, and you can be your mother who came to menghitah woman who was bertaaruf with you that. You come home from here at night, tomorrow morning, and then bring your wife back here" Shaina said

Arka understands, he will discuss first with his mother. Arka increasingly thought of the Omanya speech, he became afraid not to marry if always busy.
