Islam Friends Sepiku

Chapter 48

Zahra listened to Samuel. How could he eat with a man who is not his mahrom and that too in a public place.

"Sorry, but I can't take off my niqab and..." Lirih Zahra was as careful as possible, afraid of again hurting Samuel because of his rejection.

This is what Samuel did not think. How could Zahra eat without taking off her niqab and certainly not possible for Zahra to take off her niqab right?

"Oh, no. I'm the one who's sorry for not thinking that." Samuel said with the smile he forced.

Zahra understood very well the pain and disappointment behind Samuel's smile.

"Well, I'll get my job done."

Zahra couldn't stay there for long. It was inappropriate, but also because he could not see Samuel's disappointment at the moment.

Seeing Zahra disappear from behind the door, Samuel smiled bitterly.

"Heh, you hypocrite Sam! Can you keep going like this?" Samuel muttered to himself.

I don't know until when she can pretend to look fine with her friendship with the woman she dreams of being the mother of her child.

...

"Everything is ready, I'm here with Isabel."

Vano, who was sitting with Isabel at the restaurant, called Samuel.

"You two eat, I'm not coming." Said Samuel flat.

"Loh why? what's..."

The word Vano was cut by Samuel.

"I am too silly, expecting little but impossible things from him. How could a veiled Muslim woman seem to want to eat in a public place, heh."

Samuel smiled wryly thinking back on his silliness.

Vano did not understand Samuel's intentions, he was about to ask again but Samuel had cut off his phone.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the mimic of Vano's face is not good, Isabel felt curious.

"They didn't come." Vano was still in confusion.

"Why?"

"I'm confused too. Said Sam..."

Vano repeated what Samuel had said.

"Jeez, just pant. We are as silly as Samuel says."

Isabel hit her jidat understand.

"You mean?" Vano's question still doesn't understand.

"Of course Zahra won't eat with us. Not just with us, but surely he wouldn't want to eat with anyone in a public place. A Muslim woman veiled, how can you take off the veil? and how can a person eat if his mouth is covered in that veil?!"

Only then did Vano understand at this moment.

"Hmm, complicated!"

That's all Vano can say right now.

He was concerned about the fate of his cousin's romance.

...

While Zahra who just came out of the toilet, found a beautiful and unique dining box on his desk.

"Please accept your friend's small gift this😊. Happy eating!"

That's the writing on top of the lunchbox.

Zahra smiled and opened the lunch box. He certainly would not disappoint the food deliveryman.

After locking the door, Zahra greedily ate the contents of the lunchbox.

Samuel who saw Zahra locked the door, smiled. He was sure the girl received the lunch box.

And sure enough, Zahra sent him a message.

"Thank you."

A short inscription from Zahra, but it made Samuel happy.

When Samuel went back to his room, his mother called.

After receiving his mother's call, Samuel is seen rushing home.
