Islam Friends Sepiku

Chapter 19

"Assalamualaikum, can we meet?" Melati who still lives at Zahra's house writes the message and then weighs whether to send it or not.

"Zahrah!"

Zahra who was jubilant saw Melati who had not yet sent her message to Sultan pressing the send button on Melati's mobile phone and the message was sent immediately.

"It's been written, redundant if it's not sent." Zahra said and covered her body with a blanket while smiling.

"Waalaikumsalam, in shay'ah can, where?" Reply Sultan who is now feeling very happy, finally what he was waiting for came as well.

Since it has already started, it must continue.

"Tomorrow at the top of the cafe." Reply Jasmine.

"OK."

Sultan was very happy, finally what he was waiting for came too, he knew that tomorrow surely Melati would meet him and tell him honestly if he was the one who had been his chat friend and not Zahra, he said, before the Sultan received a message from Melati, Zahra had secretly taken the Sultan's number from Melati's contacts and said everything to make sure that when his best friend met the Sultan, he was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the best friend, the Sultan will not break his heart.

Zahra peeked at Melati from the blanket smiling happily because she could already guess if tomorrow was her best friend's happy day.

...

The next day at lunchtime, Melati and Sultan meet at a top cafe near the company.

Melati who sat in front of the Sultan just kept quiet and lowered her head, last night she had worked hard training to explain everything to the Sultan, but now let alone explain, just start her trembling.

"No need to say anything, Zahra has already explained everything to me."

The Sultan who felt no longer in the heart to see Melati who was so nervous finally opened his voice.

"You must be disappointed and angry with me, sorry I didn't mean it but I still did." Said Melati.

"No, I'm not angry or disappointed at all, I'm happy because the end I'm waiting for has come."

The Sultan's words confused Melati.

"What are you waiting for?" Melati repeated the words of Sultan.

"Yes, I've been looking forward to your readiness to be honest with me for a long time now, I'm sorry that I knew in the first place that you were the one who had been chatting with me." The Sultan said that made Melati surprised.

"How do you know? then if you know why you're acting like you don't know?" Melati asked, this time her attitude was normal, Melati who was not shy and dared to look at the Sultan, was indeed very different from the shar'i clothes that should describe a quiet, shy and gentle person. But Melati is Melati, she closes the law because of religious rules, while for her bar-bar, chatty, and muddy attitude does not violate religious rules, because between aurat and attitude are two different things.

The sultan smiled and said, "Everyone in my position would know that if Zahra could not write such silly words as you have sent, it could only be done by one person, it's Melati."

"It's not that I'm acting like I don't know, but you're the one who thinks that." Continued Sultan again that makes Melati silent there.

"Well, if you know it means it's all done, I'm sorry." Melati wanted to go from there but was stopped with one sentence Sultan who was even heard clearly by everyone who was eating lunch there.

"Will you come with me until you are willing to be my companion forever?" The Sultan stood up and approached Melati without touching her.

Melati was unable to make her voice, she cried because she was very happy at this time, she came there only to explain the truth and apologize to the Sultan even if the Sultan was willing to forgive her, it did not occur in his heart to hear that question from the Sultan at all, as he thought the Sultan was unlikely to like it.

Melati wiped her tears while nodding.

Everyone there cheered to see the two men express their feelings but still able to maintain their respective honor.
