Istikharah Love Jibril Emerson
Chapter #4 - Shalwa Az-Zahwa
Eliza said, The truth of love is crazy and absurd. Because if I could be honest, Jibril's been interested in Eliza since the first time they met. However, Jibril who has a nature of indifference to anyone turns out to also be indifferent to his own feelings. For him, interest is common and will fade with his own.
However, meeting after meeting continued to happen as if fate wanted to make the two bond with each other. Meeting after meeting which provokes an unusual spark in the heart of Jibril, which brings a new color to Jibril's life.
Even so, Jibril must ignore the spark of taste and color because the purpose of his life today is to marry the woman of his parents' choice.
After the night that Eliza revealed her feelings, the days and nights of Jibril were filled with the shadow of the girl. The expression of love continued to ring in his mind, controlling his heart and mind mercilessly. Until Jibril began to ask his heart, did Eliza feel reciprocated? Or did he actually have that feeling long before Eliza had it?
The questions Jibril asked now raised doubts about continuing his marriage to Shalwa, though he was very sure to build a household with the Sholehah woman because Jibril knew the background of the Shalwa family, he also knew what kind of character Shalwa.
Jibril recalled the advice of his friends to perform istikharah, eventually he performed the prayer of istikharah but who kept coming in his dream as a clue only to Eliza and Eliza.
Initially Jibril wanted to ignore it because it was impossible for him to cancel the marriage that had been prepared very carefully by both families. However, Eliza's shadow did not want to leave her the slightest item. In fact, even though Jibril stopped praying istikharah, Eliza remained present in her dream.
The closer his marriage was to Shalwa, Jibril's doubts and fears grew for this marriage. Until finally, inevitably Jibril must express what really happened to his parents. Whatever Shalwa's response will be, he promised himself it would be his last decision.

Shalwa Az-Zahwa, the beautiful woman is now speechless after hearing what has been said by the man who will marry her in two days. He wanted to cry, but tears would not come out of his eyes. He wanted to be angry because he was disappointed, but to just sigh it felt so heavy.
While the Shalwa family certainly reacted like what Jibril's parents had already two. They are angry, disappointed and question where Jibril and his parents feel.
"Our son is a daughter, we take care of his honor and his feelings very well. But you guys just want to destroy his feelings and honor? Do you have a heart?" Shalwa's father growled with a roaring chest.
"Weddings are two days away, should we cancel today what has been prepared in the last few months? Are you thinking about what people will say? Do you think about the honor of our family that will fall in the eyes of others?"
Ummi and Abi do not blame the accusations and anger of the Shalwa family because it is very reasonable, but they still have to be honest because of the risk to the lives of Jibril and Shalwa themselves later.
"It's my fault, Om," said Jibril. "Ummi and Abi had no idea about this matter at all, I just told them today" he continued.
"What's the lack of Shalwa, Jibril?" His mother Shalwa. "Is she not worthy of you until you dream of another woman being your life partner?"
"About him?" Shalwa's father asked in a mocking tone. "Don't be a hypocrite, Jibril. You made this decision for yourself, for the sake of fulfilling your own lusts," his his sizzle provoked the anger of Abi Gabriel because his son was accused in such a way. Ummi Firda also did not accept his son accused of hypocrisy and following his lust, but as a woman and a mother he understood what shalwa and his family felt today.
"Jibril beleum made any decision!" Abi cried sharply but Ummi Firda immediately clasped her hand gently, calming her down.
"Om, I have not decided whether to continue or cancel this marriage" Jibril said firmly. "I tell you what I feel and I think, the final decision remains with Shalwa and you. Whatever your decision is, that's what's going to happen." he continued full of confidence.
"Then what if I want to continue this marriage?" Shalwa asked after he had been silent.
"Then marriage will happen like the original plan" replied Jibril surely.
"Then what about that woman?" Shalwa's voice shook, even his eyes were already glazed and sore.
"I promise I'll forget it and just focus on our family." Gabriel answered with confidence.
Jibril's attitude is firm, honest and what it is. This is what made Shalwa fall in love with the man, long before they were betrothed. All this time, Shalwa secretly admired him and kept his name in his heart. Chanting Jibril's name in the third of the night and without getting tired of him seducing his Lord to put himself in Jibril's heart as a lover also by his side as a companion.
When the matchmaking came, of course Shalwa immediately accepted without hesitation. Finally, his do'a-do'nya was granted after all these years he seduced his Lord. But why is everything like this now?
