It's up to God

The overflowing Happiness

As Ammar sat in the hospital waiting room with a cell phone in his hand. He was nervous and enthusiastic about having great news for his two sons, Hafiz and Hamzah. Ammar wanted to tell them that they had a twin sister.

Without being able to wait any longer, Ammar contacted Hafiz first. He pressed the call button and waited with a pounding heart. A few seconds later, Hafiz's voice was heard across the phone.

"Hello, Papa. What's up?" asked Hafiz in a curious tone.

"Papa has good news for you, Hafiz," said Ammar with a big smile. "You have a little sister, and not just one, but two! Now you have a twin sister from your mother's womb after having twin cousins, Aqeela and Aisha!"

Hafiz paused for a moment, unable to believe what he had just heard. "Twin sister? Seriously, Pa?" he asked in a surprised voice.

"Yes, Hafiz. Your mother just gave birth to two beautiful baby girls. Unfortunately, papa can not take you directly to the hospital because of its location far enough. But don't worry, papa will show them to you via video call later." Ammar explained with warmth.

Hafiz looks enthusiastic. Despite not being able to meet her new siblings in person, she could at least see them through the phone screen. "Thank you, Dad. I'm so happy! Immediately show them to me huh," Hafiz said with a smile emanating on his face.

After speaking with Hafiz, Ammar then contacted Hamzah to inform him that he had a twin sister. Hamzah, who lives close enough to the hospital, immediately left for the delivery location.

Not long after, Hamzah arrived at the hospital. She rushed to the delivery room with a flowery heart. When Hamzah saw the faces of two newborn girls, an infinite happiness approached him. He approached them carefully and stroked their cheeks gently.

Elsewhere, Hafiz stared at his phone screen in anxious expectation. Ammar contacted her via video call and showed the faces of Hafiz's twin sisters. Hafiz couldn't hide her joy at seeing two cute and perfect little babies on her phone screen.

Hafiz smiled, saying, "Well, they are so cute! I can't wait to meet them face to face and play together in the future!"

Ammar smiles. "I'm also very impatient, Hafiz. These sisters will be your new playmates and you will have many wonderful moments together. They will be your sisters who are always by your side."

"I'll try to be a good sister to them, Pa. I will protect and love them as much as possible" Hafiz said as he continued to look at the phone screen.

"I'm sure you'll be a great big brother, Hafiz. You have a good heart and they are very lucky to have a sister like you. We will all support each other and take care of each other" Ammar said proudly.

Hafiz smiled widely. "Thank you, Papa. I am so happy with this news. I can't wait for the moment when I can hug them and give them as much love as possible."

Ammar said softly, "Patience, Hafiz. The time will come soon. Right now, you can only watch them grow and develop through video calls alone, that's enough to make you happy, right?

Hafiz nodded. "Yes, Pa. I will be patient and enjoy every moment. Thank you for telling me about my beautiful sisters."

"You've always been a great boy, Hafiz. Come on, we'll make good memories together with your sisters."

"Come, Papa! I'm ready to be the best big brother for them" Hafiz said with a feisty smile.

At that time, happiness included the Ammar family. They celebrate the arrival of a beautiful new member in their family, though Hafiz can only see them through a video call, while Hamzah can instantly feel the warmth and presence of his newborn sisters.

"Masyaa Allah. It's funny, Hamzah's sisters."

Nadira smiled happily to see the two boys who were so enthusiastic in welcoming the presence of their twin sister. Not only was Nadira's prayer granted, but also the prayer of Hafiz and Hamzah who wanted to have a younger sister.

...***...

After several days of treatment, Nadira and her baby were finally allowed to go home. Ammar completed the administration so that his wife and child could immediately return to the boarding house Al Fathonah, owned by his brother. Meanwhile, Mama Nadira and Uminya Ammar, help pack Nadira's belongings.

"Finally we can go home, baby. I miss the boarding school and the quiet environment there" Nadira said with a gentle smile.

"I miss you too, baby. Come on, I will finish this administration quickly so that we can go home soon," said Ammar, holding the hand of his beloved wife, Nadira.

"There's no rush, son. We'll help you pack your things quickly. You just focus on completing the administration," said Fenny, Mama Nadira, while helping pack things.

Aisyah, Uminya Ammar with a smile, said, "True, Nadira. We'll both make sure everything's neat and ready to take home."

"Thank you, Mum and Umi. I'm really lucky to have you guys by my side" Nadira said gratefully.

Ammar rubbed Nadira's back gently, "You guys are my biggest support. I don't know what I'd do without you guys."

Fenny nodded. "We are family, son. We have to help each other and support each other."

Aisyah while taking the box and wrapping it carefully, said, "This is a special moment for all of us. Welcoming our two granddaughters with great happiness."

Together, they continue to pack things and prepare to go home to the boarding house which is a loving place for them.

Nadira watches Umi and her mother affectionately. "I thank you very much for all the help and love you have given me all this time."

"That's the job of a mother and grandmother, son. We are happy to see you and Ammar happy, and our descendants are well developed" Fenny smiled.

Aisyah while giving the wrapped box to Nadira, said, "It's done, son. Your stuff is ready to take home."

Nadira took the box expectantly. Then he said, "Thank you, Mam and Umi. I can't wait to start a new life with my girls and in the boarding house we love."

Ammar hugged Nadira tightly. "Come, baby. We go home and start a new chapter in our lives together."

Fenny smiled, saying, "May your lives be filled with happiness and blessings, son."

Aisyah kissed Nadira on the forehead, saying, "Welcome home, son. Let's go back to the boarding house full of love and peace. Your brother and the santri there can't wait to welcome your twins."

"Thank you, Mum and Umi. I feel blessed to have you in my life" Nadira said with gratitude.
