That morning Ms. Sinta came sooner to Kiran's hijab shop, to meet Jihan.
It turns out that the woman who will be betrothed to Rayhan is Jihan. Although Jihan is a girl whose life is simple. But for the Siddiq family, status or wealth is not the main thing in choosing a life partner.
Look at the beautiful good girl, working hard at this time. His body is wrapped in a robe shirt, with a hijab that covers , even without makeup polish.
Her face still exuded a natural beauty. His smile that reconciles the heart and his polite speech when dealing with all his customers.

"Assalamu'alaikum pretty girl. "said Bu Sinta say hello .
"Wa'alaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarokatu. " Jihan replied and glanced at who greeted him this early in the morning.
"Mom, let's go inside the store. Jihan just opened it. Tumben's mother came her early this morning "Jihan said as she pulled out a chair for Ms. Sinta to sit down.
Ms. Sinta sat down and smiled at the hospitality of the 23-year-old girl.
"Don't you talk to me for a minute ? "asked Ms. Sinta.
"Of course, ma'am "said Jihan put down her hijab statue and approached towards Bu Sinta.
"Dam. Do you have a boyfriend ? Or do you have a partner ?? "asked Ms. Sinta to open the conversation.
"Hm. Jihan never even dated mom. Where did the pair of Jihan come from "said Jihan smiling.
"Do you want to marry your niece ? "asked Ms. Sinta.
"Ohukk. "Jihan who heard that coughed and was shocked. How could Ms. Sinta come to propose to her.
"Are you kidding me ?? Or am I dreaming, Mom ? "asked Jihan while patting her cheek and feeling pain.
"It's not a dream, is it ? "jihan said with her face and innocent smile.
Ms. Sinta who witnessed it even laughed anxiously at Jihan's behavior.
"Serious mother Jihan ? You want yah ? "said Bu Sinta persuading Jihan.
Jihan's start gently refuses, but Ms. Sinta tries to convince Jihan. Tells the condition of Bu Hana who wants her child to get married immediately because she is sick.
That certainly makes Jihan touched by the story of Bu Sinta. But there was still doubt in his heart.
"Mom, getting married is not easy. What if mom gives Jihan time to think first" Jihan said.
"alright. I will wait for your answer for the next 3 days . "said Ms. Sinta
"Alright Ma. Jihan will think first. After the next 3 days. Jihan will give mom an answer. " said Jihan smiling sincerely.

At home Jihan ventured to tell her father and mother .
And it turns out that Jihan's father and mother also supported Jihan's choice to marry.
It's been her time Jihan thought about her future, because as long as her mother was sick. In addition to working to support the economy, Jihan also always maintain and try various kinds of medicines so that her mother can recover again .
At 10 pm, Jihan was still faithfully staring at the photo of the man she admired. Jihan once secretly took a portrait of the man as she sat in front of his shop.
There was sadness in his heart. How not, when he will already receive a proposal from Ms. Sinta. Then at that time he would no longer be able to crave even the thought of another man.
Exhausted by his thoughts, Jihan fell asleep on her simple bed.
At 3 am, Jihan woke up from her sleep.
His heart and mind are still troubled. Jihan soon moved on to ablution. Jihan performing prayers istikharah.
Seriously and solemnly, Jihan prayed, asking the owner of the Universe for guidance.
"Allah, O Lord, knows what His servants do not know. O Rabb who can turn the hearts of men upside down.
"Can I tell you a story ? Right now I am in a choice that makes my heart in a dilemma Rabb. On one hand I love someone, and on the other hand there is a mother who is ready to propose to me for her child ?
"Among these two choices, which path should I go through ?
"O Lord, almighty for all love and compassion . Show me the best path. If taking it off is the best option. My heart is strong to accept your resolve.
"Verily there is no strength or effort but to expect your help Rabb.
"Amin Ya Rabbal Alamin's. "
