I Turned Him in a Third Night

Part 9 | Wedding

"If love and wanting to have are two different things, then why would I want both."

♡♡♡

Marriage is now in sight even just a matter of hours will be done. It was Zahra who was looking at her reflection in front of the mirror in the room, which had been decorated in such a beautiful way. After a series of processions, Zahra and Gibran's marriage will finally take place. Because both families are equally unwilling to bear the shame of the cancellation of their two children's marriage.

'I will try to open my heart to him who will soon be my priest.' he said in his heart.

"Don't daydream and keep tau tau tau tau tasa," said someone slapped both shoulders Zahra.

"No," said Zahra.

"I'm sorry" said Zahra flipped her body and held tightly to the hands of the man before her.

"Ssttt, don't talk about it."

"But it--"

"Udah soon your future husband will come and say ijab qobul. Loe has to be a good wife to her, and she has to open her heart, too." It was difficult to say that, but this is a reality that he could not deny that his two friends would have a marriage.

Zahra simply nodded in response to the words of her best friend Zihan. The sound of knocking on the door blew away the minds of those who were inexplicably floating around not knowing the direction and destination. Covering each other's pain is a choice of both.

"What's up, Tan?" zihan asked, opening the door.

"Tante can talk to Zihan for a moment" Hanna said as much as possible to look calm. But the look of anxiety was clearly visible on his face.

"Can, Tan," said Zihan.

"Ra, I want to meet Umi loe first well," said Zihan who was immediately replied by a nod by his best friend.

♡♡♡

"What's up, Tan?" asked Zihan after the two reached one corner of the room. There was no reply that Zihan received from Hanna. But what is certain is that sobs now dominate the room.

"Why, Auntie crying?" asked Zihan worriedly at once confused.

Hanna still endured with her clamor and sobs that sounded so heartbreaking to Zihan. "Sit down, Tan." Zihan invites Hanna to sit on the long sofa in the room.

"You get Zihan a drink," Zihan's bargain, which Hanna gave him a head gel.

'What really happened?' inner Zihan wondered at the confusion.

Hanna thrusts her phone towards Zihan, hesitatingly taking it. Zihan widened his eyes in disbelief at the message he had just read.

Zihan's feelings were now raging erratically. 'What does loe mean?' Zihan could not believe the message. Many times he read it over and over again. However, the content of his message was still the same as the first time he read it.

"What should Aunty tell Zahra, son," she sobbed. Zihan shook his head not knowing what he should say and do right now. He was speechless and could not say anything more.

'O Allah is the plan which You are preparing, ' inwardly, Zihan.

Zihan reached into his sling bag and took his cell phone and contacted someone. "Thank you lift," he murmured while pacing indistinctly.

"Where, son?" ask Hanna. Zihan shook his head weakly.

"Now it's not active, Tan." Another reality that increasingly makes the anxiety they feel increasingly peaked.

"Where are you going, son?" hanna asked to see Zihan open the doorknob in a hurry.

"Zihan go first, Auntie." Without waiting for a response from Hanna he immediately went to follow the heart.

♡♡♡

Riding the car in a hurry even the speed of the car is above average. Luckily the streets are still running so Zihan can be free to get to the destination immediately.

"Loe's stupid action," he his his hiss continued to focus on staring at the streets. Zihan parked the car right in the courtyard of a magnificent luxury house. With lightning fast he ran into the house without saying any greetings first.

Zihan widened his eyes in disbelief at the state of the crowded house. However, it is full of chaos. "What's going on?" zihan asked half-screaming which made all eyes on him.

Zihan was instantly rewarded with a pained hug from the middle-aged woman before him. "What's going on?" reload Zihan release his embrace.

Zihan could not find the answer to his question. However, the piece of paper he received was able to answer all his questions and confusion. For whatever reason he did not believe what was written on that piece of paper.

'No way' Zihan shook his head.

♡♡♡

The breeze of the night accompanied the sadness, grief, and anxiety of someone who had been silent from when to stay empty-eyed. In a beautiful garden with a variety of flowers as a sweetener does not make his sadness treated in the slightest. Rain spots began to wet his body but there was no intention to move from his place now. Let the raindrop bear witness to how sad and painful he is now. However, suddenly the speck of rain was no longer felt in his body, he quickly looked up and found someone who was paddling himself to avoid the rain.

"Loe's Napain here?" the cold as night that was now greeting them. "Aren't I supposed to be rich like you?" said a beautiful girl who was paddling him earlier voiced very softly but full of firmness.

"Gue needs time alone" he said still in a cold voice. Even the cold air tonight was still inferior to that handsome man's remark. "Is this how all problems can be solved?!"

"Go!" banish him.

"Gue won't leave before you tell me everything is the same" the girl concluded.

"Okay, if that's what I'm going to do." He immediately got up from his seat.

"Don't be selfish with pain loe, out there many more hurt because of the act loe!" The girl's words were able to stop the footsteps of the handsome man in his full tuxedo outfit.

"Loe knew nothing about my life and my pain" he said, turning his body to avoid the sharp eye contact of the girl in front of him.

"Gue tau's. We know no longer days or months but years. Do not think in a rich way gini the problem will be solved so," said Zihan firmly.

"Gue knows it," she said coldly.

"If you know why you're still doing it?" hatchlings.

"It's the best."

"Best loe said? Loe has made your family ashamed because of the actions of Loe. Not only your family, but Zahra's family our best friend is also ashamed!" zihan's light excitedly held back the emotions that had been burning in his heart since earlier.

"It's not my wish, Han," she argued.

"Not what you want?!" Zihan is sick of seeing the childish behavior of Gibran, his best friend.

"Isn't this what you want? Why did you even go on your wedding day. Where's loe's brain?" zihan's jolt that could no longer hold back his emotions.

"Do you not think how the family of loe and Zahra destroyed because of the shame because of the behavior of loe?" zihan shouted with emotions still controlling him. Although he loves and wants Gibran to be his companion, he will not bear to see his two best friend's families bear the shame of Gibran's selfishness.

"Do you care about my same problem?" His brain is out of control again.

"If I don't care about you. I'm not going to be here right now" said Zihan. He knows and knows the character of his best friend. In a time when hearts and feelings of chaos fall apart, only this garden will Gibran come.

"But I don't care." Gibran immediately left just like that leaving Zihan who was still pecking on the spot. Quickly, Zihan chases Gibran's steps away. "Gue's not finished yet Gibran!" zihan shouted.

Gibran ignored Zihan's screams, he continued to run not knowing the direction and purpose. Likewise with Zihan who continues to pursue his broad steps. "Running out of trouble is only for a loser!" zihan shouted even louder and it managed to stop the pace of Gibran's foot.

When Gibran fell into his trap, he ran and blocked Gibran's path. "And whatever misfortune befalls you is because of the deeds of your own hands, and Allah forgives many (of your faults)."

(QS. Ash-Shura 42: Verse 30).

"God will not burden a people beyond his means. It is God's promise, God tells you that there must be a solution, and the best solution is not by running rich," continued Zihan.

"Sorry." That's all Gibran can say. Indeed, the words of Zihan managed to hit his heart and feelings. "Done all your problems" said Zihan, patting Gibran on the shoulder slowly giving him a little strength.

"Where's Loe going?" stop Gibran at the sight of Zihan stepping out from before him.

"What?" asked Zihan after Gibran successfully blocked Zihan's move.

"Gue needs loe, Han," he said. For whatever reason saw Gibran as fragile as that, his heart was torn to shreds. It hurts!

Zihan smiled sweetly even very sweetly towards his best friend. The wounds in his heart let only he know. Enough of him being hurt and hurt. "Gue will obviously all the same loe but enough loe and I only know," he said with a slight smile.

"Gue can't" said Zihan who made Gibran's forehead wrinkled in confusion. Like saying why?

"I'm not the same as you who know but there is a God who knows everything," explained Zihan answered Gibran's question that was not spoken by oral.

Gibran smiled at what Zihan had just said, "We were talking in the park earlier."

"Now?" ask Zihan. Gibran looks steady. But Zihan shook his head loudly.

"Why?" the question is confused, earlier Zihan who demanded an explanation turn now gibran will explain Zihan did not want to. What Zihan was thinking was actually.

Zihan showed me the watch he was wearing, "Both a man and a woman who are not mahramnya alone at midnightespecially in a quiet place rich gini." Gibran nodded in understanding, because it was very late at night. They finally decided to go home.
