Her morning.
In a simple house. A man was preparing to go to work that morning. He has already taken a work permit for the next few days. But it's not useful at all. The intention of the heart to keep Shafa is not realized. The woman, who is still his wife, insisted on parting with him.
Afkar did not blame Syafa. But this is the destiny he has to live.
“Kar, can't you talk to Syafa anymore,” said Bu Nuri as Afkar prepared to go to work.
Afkar sighed softly. Hearing his mother's words. “Bu please, it's been my and Syafa's decision. Although heavy but we have to accept it.”
“Don't Yara be happy with her new husband. Then what is the barrier for you two,” urged Bu Nuri.
Afkar shook his head again. The man felt that Bu Nuri was selfish again, wanting him to return with Syafa even though everything was explained last night by Afkar.
“Bu we discussed this last night. Afkar begs to accept all these decisions. If indeed you are still found in a soul mate. God will bring us back together. Otherwise, maybe God has prepared even better,” Afkar said. “Now it's better we go through the day with better changes, Mom. There are many important lessons that we must apply to our future. Do’ only this child of yours, get back up.”
“What did Mas Afkar say, Mom. We must try to understand the current position of Mba Syafa. As Mas Afkar bialng last night. If it comes back together but there are injuries that continue to be leveraged will be boomerang itself later. I'd better pray, Mas Afkar can be a better soul mate. And pray for me too even though it is very difficult to materialize but I want to feel pregnant like other women. I want to give a descent to Mas Renal,” Og Mira.
Hearing her daughter complain, Bu Nuri felt pity.
“Aamin, I wish you both the best. Right now you're all I have. Forgive me, if you are too selfish all this time,” regretted Bu Nuri while bowing down sadly considering all the events that have befallen her family so far.
“Already, already. We discussed this last night. Today I will start my day, I ask prayers from you guys so that everything is smooth,” said Afkar, he immediately grabbed the hand of Bu Nuri and kissed her.
The man also rushed on his second wheeled vehicle. Slowly leave the simple courtyard of the house. Passed quickly to the largest material store in Tanah Abang where he worked.
Bu Nuri and Mira stared at Afkar's departure. “Mother does not have the heart to see the condition of Mas want who is disabled now. If only, I had more money. Your sister can return to normal if you have surgery,” said Bu Nuri staring at Afkar's departure with sadness.
“I've offered that to Mas Afkar, Mom. But he refused. I don't know what Mas Afkar is like.”
“Yes, you are right. May his hard work bear fruit. I want to see my son back to normal. I just can't bear to see your Mas in such a state of disability. Many demean him because of his current condition.”
“We do’ course Mas Afkar able to pass everything patiently and well, Bu.”
“Aamin.”
“Now mom breaks! I'm going to tidy up the mother's change of clothes that I'm going to bring. I'd rather stay with you. This is Mas Afkar's word, you can't refuse!” mira said firmly.
Afkar orders Mira to invite their mother to live with her daughter. Because Afkar was not sure he could accompany the old woman at all times. Afkar is determined to work hard for his future. Surely for Dhiya, his beloved daughter that he has right now. Although Erza and Yara certainly gave Dhiya whatever she asked for but Afkar also wanted to give his daughter the best.
An hour's drive Afkar arrived at the material shopping center area at Tanah Abang Market. The man immediately walked in after leaving his two-wheeled vehicle in the parking lot.
“Assalamualaikum,” Afkar greeting when the man was still into the store where he worked.
Some employees look surprised to see the arrival of Afkar.
“Loh, not Mas Afkar permission not to enter work? Ko, already signed in,” said one of the workers there.
“The message is quickly finished, so it is better that I enter work than at home,” Afkar replied. His gaze circled around the shop looking for someone. “Where is Malik?” ask Afkar.
“Not yet to come, Mas. Maybe in a moment,” said another employee.
Afkar nodded his head slowly. He went straight to the usual place where he lived while working in the store. Afkar was so serious about seeing reports of goods going in and out of the store. Before long his seriousness was disturbed when he saw the arrival of Uda Malik who came with a bent face.
“Assalamualaikum,” said Uda Malik when the old man had just entered his store. Uda Malik also did not realize that Afkar had entered work today.
One of the employees approached the man and handed the key to Uda Malik. And tell him that Afkar has entered work.
“That's right, instead of her permission this week,” said Uda Malik when she heard the speech of her employees.
“True, Uda. It was Mas Afkar again seriously checking the report,” the employee pointed to where Afkar worked.
“Oh, yes you have returned to tidying up the goods in the warehouse.”
“Good, Uda.” The officer passed from in front of Uda Malik. And Uda Malik too. The old man chose to approach Afkar.
“Why is it in work?” asked Uda Malik suddenly so that made Afkar surprised to be made.
“Astaghfirullahaladzim.” Afkar was a little surprised because he was surprised by Uda Malik's greeting to him.
“Sorry I surprised you.” Uda Malik patted Afkar's shoulder softly. “Why have you entered work, instead of accompanying your wife in the hospital?” ask Uda Malik.
Afkar's superior furrowed his brows hearing him. “Divorce? Wh why? I thought you guys would reunite.” Uda Malik was curious about Afkar's life story.
“There are things I didn't tell you. I must have dropped my talaq on Syafa. This was the best decision for both of us.”
Uda Malik thought a little about hearing Afkar's confession.
The old man immediately sat in front of Afkar. “Means you are widower now?”
Afkar nodded his head. “Yes, but not yet official because we just divorced religiously. While legally, our divorce is still in religious litigation.” Afkar. He saw the look on Uda Malik's face that looked like there was a problem. “What's up, Uda? Looks like there is a problem,” asked Afkar to his boss.
“Purtriku, Zana. Last night he came home with a man,” replied Uda Malik.
“Not that's good. Means your daughter is ready for marriage,” timpal Afkar.
Uda Malik shook her head. “But I don't like that guy, Kar. I feel like Tony is just playing with my daughter.”
“It's just Uda's feeling alone. Think positive.”
“Parent feelings are usually just right. Hearing you are divorced, I really hope you become my son-in-law, Kar,”, said Uda Malik made Afkar smile on his side.
“What you did not say wrong. I'm just a disabled man who doesn't have anything. What you are not afraid of your daughter being dragged in danger as experienced by Syafa.” Afkar reminded Uda Malik.
“Absolutely not, because I know you're the man in charge and will definitely protect Zana, later.”
“It's very unlikely. It's best to just bless their relationship.”
Afkar had just finished talking. A beautiful woman in career women's clothing entered the shop area.
“Where is my papa?” zana asked one of the clerks who stood guard in front of the store. Staff who are in charge of welcoming incoming buyers. “Hei, asked instead dumbly,” reprimand Zana.
“Ah, Sorry. I don't know who you mean,” said the Officer.
Zana turned the lazy eyeball with the response of the store clerk. “My dad is the owner of this store. Malik Mahendra, you used to call it Uda Malik,” said Zana.
“Oh ... Malik UDA. He's there, Miss.” The official pointed to the place where Uda Malik was.
“Why not tell from earlier!” grunts Zana. The beautiful woman with her graceful style immediately turned closer to the direction pointed earlier by the store clerk.
“Pah,” call Zana when the woman arrives in front of her papa and Afkar. “I want to talk to papa important. It's about my relationship with Tony. Papa has to bless us both, not to. Anyway should.” Zana immediately spoke without a stale base. The woman was to the point at the core.
Without being told who the woman who suddenly came was Zana, the woman who was being talked about by him and Uda Malik, Afkar quickly stood up. The man was about to leave in front of the father and the boy. Afkar did not want to interfere and interfere in the affairs of both of them.
The look of Zana's eyes was fixed on Afkar seeing the condition of Afkar who had a disability in his leg. Zana was a little disgusted.
‘Darling yes, disabled try if normal. His face and body are good.’
Inner Zana with a mocking smile.
“Loh, where are you going, Kar?” uda Malik asked as he watched Afkar leave from before him.
“I better go for a minute. Perhaps Zana wants to have an important talk with you,” Afkar said giving Zana and Uda Malik a chance to talk. Afkar passed from the presence of the father and the boy.
“Papa said last night. Papa disagrees with you with the man. My heart is doubtful of Tony. Papa would rather agree you are with Afkar,” said Uda Malik immediately made Zana Saverina Mahendra turn to the man of that age.
“Papa don't ngaco. What would my superiors and subordinates say if I had such a handicapped husband. Don't be crazy, Pah. I have to get married to Tony, Pah. Papa must bless us!” zana's insistence made Uda Malik mentally suspicious of her daughter.
“Why do you insist on marrying that man? Huh!” Uda Malik urges Zana.
The boy and papa chat is getting hotter. This story will continue in a different title. Wait for the story.
How Afkar's life came to be.
