HALAL LOVER (Already Published )

Section 5

Azazan also reverberated, Azizah woke up from her sleep and went straight to the bathroom for ablution and after that Azizah immediately performed dawn prayers. After the prayer Azizah immediately said do'a.

"O Allah, the Almighty, the Mercy, forgive my sins, my parents, and give Aby the best place. O Rabb, please allow this heart to accept this match so that I can live it well. And if he is the best for me whom You have sent, strengthen this heart. Oh God, please throw away my feelings for Fahmi. Because this feeling You have grown it, You alone will lose it. Servant believes Your plan is far more beautiful than the plan of Your servants, Aamiin" Azizah rubbed her face rough.

Elsewhere, Ghibran was praying after he finished praying.

And so did Aisha, she was also praying.

"Oh Allah, I do not know whether this is love or not. Because I know that true love is only for you. But, if indeed he has you doomed for me then make this love the love that is because it is only for You and bring it closer. However, if he is not someone whom You have destined for me then take him away and give sincerity to this heart, Aamiin."

That afternoon, Azizah was reading a book in the park and in the same place Ghibran was there, she sat down with green grass while still thinking about Aisyah and yesterday.

O Allah, why do these hearts and minds continue to be thought of by Aisha? why do You give this feeling, if he and I are not You izinkn to be together? ghibran murmured in the heart.

When Azizah was about to leave the garden she saw a wandering Ghibran there. Azizah intended to approach him and Azizah stood near Ghibran, although a little far apart.

"It seems you're having a problem." Azizah stood beside Ghibran.

Ghibran turned to Azizah and looked back.

"What do you care? Do I have to, I tell you?"

"Do you love Aisha?"

"Do I also have to say all my heart and mind, to you?" Ghibran turned his head and got up from his seat. Ghibran leaves, but Azizah stops him.

"Aisha is a good woman. If you really love him, I hope you don't hurt him."

Ghibran stopped in his footsteps, turned his head and walked away regardless of Azizah's words.

"Hey, where are you going? I'm talking to you" Azizah exclaimed as she watched Ghibran leave.

"Basic weird guy! Just talking and playing away, it's really rude!" azizah said upset and sat back down.

"But, I'm sure. Ghibran must have liked Aisyah. From his attitude alone it has been seen that he likes Aisyah and Aisyah also seems to like Ghibran. Ghibran quiet guy is also cute and Aisyah is a friendly and calm woman, it fits. They're a matching couple." Azizah painted a smile on her lips then went back to reading the book.

***

Azizah walked on the campus corridor, and suddenly Azizah's phone rang. Azizah stopped her steps and immediately took her phone in her bag.

"Hallo, Assalamualaikum." Azizah received the call, not sure who called her. After a few minutes, Azizah was finished in her chat and she continued her steps again. On the way, he meets Fahmi. Azizah stopped her steps as well as Fahmi. Fahmi throws a smile, Azizah also returns Fahmi's smile.

"Assalamualaikum," said Fahmi.

"Waalaikumsalam," Azizah replied kindly.

"Tumben himself, where's Aisyah?"

"Mmm, just now he told me he wasn't feeling well, and today he can't go to college."

"Ohh so. Oh well Zah, yesterday I saw you with Ghibran. Looks like you're getting close now well, I'm glad to see that because you're getting along now."

"Yes, thank God Mi."

"You two are both fools."

"Huh?! Ah, you're-there's Mi, that's impossible."

"Lho, why is it impossible? Isn't it God's secret? There is nothing impossible in this world Zah, if Allah has asked you to be a match then what can you do?"

But I don't want to mate with that weird guy, I wish you were my soul mate later Mi.

mumbled Azizah in his heart.

"Well, Azizah." Fahmi flicked his fingers in front of Azizah's face and broke Azizah's daydream.

"Huh, yeah. What's up Mi?"

"You why? He talks and daydreams."

"No, I'm fine." Azizah commented a smile on her lips.

"True, are you okay?"

Azizah just nodded slowly.

"Oh yeah, by the way your pictures are good, I like."

"Alhamdulillah, if you like."

"Yeah, I'm first yeah." Fahmi smiled, Azizah just nodded slowly and Fahmi passed away.

Azizah continued to smile at Fahmi's departure and remembered her feelings for Fahmi.

"I should be able to forget this feeling towards him. Because, everything is in vain. I should be able to act normal."

Azizah stopped breathing for a moment and then she continued her steps that had stopped earlier.

Elsewhere, in the campus park on the edge of Ghibran lake was with Fahmi. The ghibran threw a stone into the lake.

"If you're not sure, and can't accept that matchmaking why are you continuing? you are a man and you have the right to decide your life. Even in the affairs of a life partner, it is different with a woman."

Ghibran turned to Fahmi and then looked straight ahead.

"Yes I know Mi, and I understand what you said earlier. In fact, I also want to be like that. But, isn't obeying the old man's wishes any better?"

"By sacrificing your own feelings?"

"Yes, my parents are more important than my own feelings." The ghibran stared straight ahead while throwing a small rock into the lake.

"Well, if you think so. But are you going to keep quiet and not say about how you feel about Aisha?"

"For what else?"

"At least he knows it all." Fahmi stared at Ghibran who kept looking ahead.

"That's impossible Fahmi, I better not say it because it's useless. Because, he and I won't be able to unite."

"Well, I'm sure you can." Fahmi patted Ghibran on the shoulder, Ghibran just smiled knot.

"Alright, I still have business. I go first." Fahmi got up from his seat, then left the Ghibran himself.

I'm sorry Aisyah, I can't say everything and it's better.

said the ghibran in his heart while still continuing to throw a small stone in the lake.

\* \* \*

Azizah was getting ready in her room, for today she was going with Aisha. Azizah's phone rang, Azizah immediately received it and there was a voice in the distance saying greetings.

"[Assalamualaikum, yes.]"

"[Oralight.]"

"[Are you ready yet Zah?]"

"[Already, but not yet ngerapiin his veil, Shah.]"

"[Oh, yasuda. See you there, yeah.]"

"[Assalamualaikum,]" said Aisyah greeting.

"[Ofracialpair.]

Azizah hung up the phone and continued to apply herself.

Elsewhere, Ghibranpun is preparing to leave. And as he was about to leave, he saw his drawer open and he was pensive because there was a photograph of Aisyah inside. Ghibran turned the photo upside down, sighed and left.

Aisyah stood on the side of the road, waiting for public transportation to pass by and Ghibran accidentally passed by and saw Aisyah. Ghibran stopped his motorbike and looked back but Aisyah got into a taxi.

"Aisha, where is she going?" said Ghibran curious then turn the motor back on and drove away with his motor.

Meanwhile, Azizah just came out of her room and met with Umy Fatimah.

"A pretty umy boy, where are you going, son?"

"Today, Azizah has an appointment with Aisyah, go to my book shop."

"Oh well, oiyaa almost forgot. Next week, we're invited to dinner by Mr. Haryo."

"Yes, My. Azizah is late my, Zizah said yes." Azizah kissed his umyad hand and said hello.

"Assalamualaik."

"Waalaikumsalam." umy fatimah smiled at Azizah's departure.

Azizah stepped her feet so slowly and remembered the umyya speech earlier.

"Eat dinner? That means, I'll meet and see him. O Allah, I am not ready yet" said Azizah.

Azizah looked at the direction of the clock in her hand and was surprised that it was starting to day.

"O Allah I am too late, Aisha must be waiting for me."

Azizah left so quickly. Azizah was waiting for a taxi on the side of the road, she waved her hand but no taxi stopped. Azizah was getting more agitated because she was late and it was getting late.

"Oh my God, no taxi stops, everything is full. I'm too late, surely Aisyah is waiting for me. I'm sorry Shah."

Azizah tried to stop the taxi again by waving her hand. Again, no taxi stopped. Azizah was getting more and more restless. Sometimes he looked at the watch he was wearing. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of him. Azizah scrunched her forehead, confused as to why the car stopped in front of her? The driver of the car lowered the glass window on the car door.

"Milk." Azizah looked at Fahmi in the car a little down.

"Aziziah." Fahmi saw Azizah.

Fahmi got out of his car and went straight to Azizah who was standing on the side of the road.

"Azizah, what are you doing here?"

"Actually, I was waiting for a taxi. But no taxi stopped. Today it seems like a taxi is full of all."

"If I may know, where are you going?"

"I want to meet Aisyah Mi, I'm too late. Aisha must have waited a long time."

"Oh, how about I drop off?" Azizah simply fell silent, "how? Aren't you late?"

"What's not a hassle?"

"Absolutely not, come on."

They got into the car and drove away in Fahmi's car.

Ghibran was sitting in a restaurant, reading a book in his hand and in the same place Aisyah had just come and was sitting not too far away from the Ghibran table. Aisyah immediately ordered a drink so that Ghibran heard the voice of Aisyah who for him was no stranger. The ghibran stopped reading and was shocked.

That voice, I seem to recognize that voice very well. It was like the voice of Aisha. Ahhh, no way. Maybe it's just similar.

ghibran murmured in his heart. Ghibran continued reading his book again.

"Orange juice one well mbak," Aisyah told a waiters, while still looking at the menu book in front of her.

Once again the Ghibran heard that voice again. This time, he tried to make sure. Lowering his book slowly to see it and how surprised he was when he saw Aisyah there. However, he smiled and continued to look at Aisyah who was reading a book without Aisyah's knowledge.

"Subhanallah, so perfect did Allah create you Aisha. I really admire you. Unfortunately, I'm too cowardly to tell you that. I can only admire you without being able to have you." Ghibran continued to look at Ayesha behind her book from a distance.

Azizah came and saw Ghibran looking at Aisha. Azizah did not continue her steps to get to Aisyah she was even engrossed in seeing Ghibran who was looking at Aisha.

It seems that Ghibran liked Aisyah and Aisyah also liked Ghibran. I need to be able to unite them both.

muttered Azizah in her heart and she smiled and immediately approached Aisyah.

"Assalamualaikum, Shah."

"Waalaikumsalam, Zah." Aisha looked over and threw her smile.

"I'm old huh Shah? Surely you have been waiting since then well, sorry well Shah. You see, the taxi was full of all. Fortunately there was Fahmi," said Azizah, while sitting in a chair.

"No Zah, I just arrived. Oiyaa Zah, sorry well I ordered a drink first without waiting for you first. Wait a minute, did you say there was Fahmi? so that means you, you were brought here by Fahmi, so?"

"Yes, yes."

"So, where's Fahinya now? how you're alone." Looking around, looking for the presence of Fahmi but Aisyah did not see the presence of Fahmi.

"So, Fahmi went straight away. He said, there's business."

Ayesha is just a mangosteen-mangut hear the narration of Azizah. A waiter came with a glass of orange juice and immediately put it on the table, Azizah also ordered a drink. The waiters left, and the two of them went back to talking.

Meanwhile, Ghibran was troubled by Azizah's arrival. Because he could not see Aisha. Ghibran was disturbed by Azizah's presence there, he continued to grumble annoyed himself.

"That shitty woman, why does she have to be there? I can't see Aisyah. Just disturb! I'd rather get out of here than see him."

Finally Ghibran decided to leave the place, Ghibran got up from his seat and he left. He had left his book on the table.

Azizah and Aisyah were busy talking while doing college assignments.

"Well, I'm going to the toilet first."

Azizah nodded her head in agreement, and Aisha left Azizah.

Azizah sat by herself and remembered the incident when Ghibran did not stop observing Aisha from a distance.

"I need to bring them together. They love each other, they must be united. Whatever happens," he said slowly.

Azizah smiled with confidence and she tried to look back to see the whereabouts of the Ghibran, she was surprised because it turned out that the Ghibran was not there.

"Where is that guy?? Wasn't she there hmmmm."

Azizah saw something in the former Ghibran's spell, she was curious and went to see it.

"He left the book here, it seems he forgot. Hmmm, tomorrow I have to return it and say it."

Azizah smiled and went to her desk and sat back down. Aisha came and sat down.

"I'm sorry Zah, I'm old yeah?"

"It's okay Shah, just relax." Azizah threw a smile as well as Aisyah, they went back to doing college tasks.
