Istikharah Love Jibril Emerson

Chapter #23 - The Highest Throne of Love

Aira was happy to see her brother who now looked very different, his life was like starting to have color and not monotonous as before. However, Aira was also anxious because what made Jibril happy was something mortal and pseudo, even very risky.

There were many things that made Aira anxious, whether it was Jibril's relationship with his God or Jibril's relationship with his family as well as Eliza's family. Although Jibril said he just went with the flow and did not plan anything, it was precisely that that made Aira even more worried.

Love is a feeling that is so subtle but strong, love can change the character, perspective and even belief of a person.

"Darling ...."

"Geez!"

Aira who was currently cooking the water instantly snapped when suddenly Arsyad came and patted her shoulder. "Eh-iya ... Why, Mas?" ask Aira.

"Astagfirullah, you daydream. What's up?" Arsyad asked while turning off the stove because the water was boiling. "You got a problem? Same story as me, honey. What's up?" Aira gave a smile looking at the anxiety in Arsyad's eyes.

"There's nothing, Mom. Just the same thought Jibril's brother Shalwa aja," replied Aira Lirih while making tea for Arsyad as well as himself.

"Honey .. don't think too much about them because they are adults, the decisions they take also think I'm right," Arsyad said, rubbing his wife's head gently. "Oh yeah, how was your lunch? Livia same Tanvir story, he said you guys had lunch with aunt who kissed om Jibril then in slap same om Jibril and when shopping aunty that had no money," arsyad told her what Tanvir and Livia had told her.

Aira who heard it grimaced, she had already guessed that Tanvir and Livia would not be able to keep a secret." Is that Elizabeth?" asked Arsyad again who was only answered with a nod of the head by Aira.

"Okay, I understand" said Arsyad with a smile. "It's okay, honey. It's common in love stories to happen things we don't want, they're just a process. And if Elizabeth is Jibril's soul mate, what can we do? We can only pray for them to be happy" said Arsyad again who was only responded with a gentle smile by Aira. If Arsyad knew that the issue in Jibril's love story is not bitter sweet only about the heart but also about faith, thought Aira.

While on the other hand, Eliza looked even more cheerful after spending time with Jibril and his family. The excessive joy of Aira was not spared from the eyes of her parents who always pay attention to Eliza so far.

Eliza also sent a message to Jibril and he could not wait for an answer from the man..

"I also asked Ruby if you guys had lunch together, and it turns out that today Ruby didn't meet you at all, El. Meaning what?" tanya Darrel is full of emphasis.

"Darrel, lower your tone!" tell Mr. Henry who saw Eliza looked nervous, Darrel was immediately aware of his mistake.

"Sorry, Baby. I'm just worried because I don't know who you're having lunch with and who's driving you home, too" Darrel said regretfully. He approached his only bowed sister while frowning her fingers. Darrel rubbed Eliza's shoulder gently." I don't mean to be angry, Dear. I'm just worried," he added.

Eliza has never lied to her family, but how can she lie while Eliza is so dependent on them?

"I ..." Eliza raised her face then she looked at her parents and Darrel took turns, they seemed to wait for Eliza's reply impatiently. "I ate with Jibril and his brother" Eliza said, leaving them all shocked and confused. They looked at Eliza with frowns, the look they showed made Eliza feel uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Jibril who is currently just finished taking a shower immediately checked his phone, he smiled as he got a message from Eliza containing a thank you for his lunch. Eliza said she was very happy to know the Jibrils and she wanted to introduce Jibril to her family as well.

For some reason, Jibril was happy to read the message. He felt an unusual happiness, there was a foreign sigh that greeted his heart and tickled his soul. A taste that felt so beautiful and colorful, a taste that Jibril had never felt so far.

However, when he wants to reply to Eliza's message. Jibril gets a message from Aira.

^^^Humaira

^^^"Love is the most beautiful feeling and has the highest throne in our lives and in our hearts. But, love with the highest throne is love for Him the all-loving. In addition to grace, love for fellow beings is also a trial and even a seduction that is so subtle."^^^

Jibril was stunned to read the message, his heart as though it was flinching. Was his love for Eliza a gift or was it just a trial?
