Love Ends At Red Lights

A peaceful heart

Hana accompanied by Caterina and Rara slept one room.

Doni stayed on the 2nd floor with Raffa.

I don't know if Hana feels comfortable staying at Gavin's kang house after a few nights before staying at this house.

In addition to their friendly hosts. There is something else that Hana felt when occupying the house. Every time he heard the Adhan saw some of the hostesses going to the mosque together. Then saw them praying together and fasting as if his heart was alive. There was a great desire in Hana's heart to approach the place hearing what they were talking about but there was something still blocking Hana from making a move, prestige.

He chose to look and observe and then hear from a distance although his little heart thrashed to be satisfied.

Unlike Caterina which is free without pressure. He could join immediately if he wanted to and sometimes more willing to listen to the advice of the brothers who boarding in place Gavin especially Nadia medical students final semester.

"Aren't you asleep?" Caterina saw Hana still opening her eyes.

"Not yet."

"That's a good thing you want to sleep here. So that represents my desire to come back here, brother." Caterina said with a happy smile.

"Why do you want to be here?" Hana asked Caterina for her reason to follow her stay here.

"I think this is the most comfortable place for me. I don't know if my sister sees them going every time she prays to the mosque, which makes me like it. Don't know why. Especially if you listen to the same lecture they are sadarus, weiih. I have never been so happy when I heard the advice or direction of the teacher. Ah, that can't be described, brother. You want to try hanging out there?"

"Did?" Hana even gawked.

"So not sure you want to? He he." Caterina felt ashamed as if she was imposing a will.

"Yes, we'll be horrified from the deck." Imbuh Hana to Caterina.

"Well.. really do you want to?" Caterina's eyes widened as if she could not believe that Hana would listen to the lecture up close.

"Yes, but not so. They may be uncomfortable as well we are present but have different beliefs." Hana was still keeping her image in front of Caterina.

"It's not so big brother. Feel like you ever explain it to me, brother. He said we could go there sometime. They are glad that we have asked a lot and studied Islam.

"Oh yeah?" Hana doesn't believe.

"real brother. Even sister Nadi likes to free me to read her religious books if I play into her room." Caterina Bright.

"Ohhh. You don't be so disrespectful to Caterina." Hana advises Caterina.

"Yes brother. I'm asking permission first, brother. They're even happy, brother, and they also allow us to borrow the books." Obviously Caterina is opposite to Hana's view.

"Yes. Even if they are good, you must not ruin our image before them. Be careful when you maintain your attitude. We're strangers here let alone our different beliefs." Obviously Hana at length advised Caterina not to be too free even considered rude.

"It's good, brother." Caterina hugs the affectionate Hana. Hana gently rubbed Caterina's head of affectionate marks with full tenderness.

"Miss Hana hasn't slept? It's already night. Tomorrow we have to go to Jakarta. Because Miss Caterina's going twins to France tomorrow night." Saran Rara is now Hana's assistant.

"Well, let's sleep. Let's not have bad luck tomorrow." Take Hana to Caterina followed by a nod.

Hana and Caterina slept one bed with a sideways sleeping position. Hana hugs her sister from behind while Caterina hugs the bolster for her to hold.

Meanwhile at the hotel Mr. Hans and Wei were still chatting.

"Sorry Mr. Hans. After this I want to invite Hana to be a wife. Now one by one Hana's problems are over. I heard from you about the progress of Hana's health. I don't want to put this thing off again, uncle." Wei said to Mr. Hans who expressed his wish to marry Hana immediately.

"Let's think first, Wei. I think it's better to give some distance first. So that Hana can enjoy her freedom."

"Okay my uncle will be waiting for him. But hopefully not too long.

"I'll leave everything to Hana. If Hana wanted it I would probably consider." Mr. Hans replied to Wei.

"What about your family Wei? Do they know Hana? Because marriage is not just about bringing two people together but how to unite two families. Hana's best introduced before she goes far." Mr. Hans reminds Wei that Hana can be introduced to his family first.

"Good uncle. After this I will introduce Hana to my mother and my sister. So that they can get to know you more closely." Sahut Wei responded to Mr. Hans's proposal.

"It's best if your family doesn't agree to it, you better back off. Don't let it hurt Hana's feelings." Mr. Hans seemed to have laughed if the Wei family did not like Hana, it would affect Hana later.

"Good uncle. I'll try." Answer Wei.

"We better get some rest. No hard time at night. Are Hana and Caterina asleep?" Mr. Hans sipped his drink while thinking of his two daughters who chose to sleep in Gavin's house.

"I just got to report both of them sleeping." Wei informs Rara of Hana's assistant.

"Well.had. We are the ones who have not. You also seem to be a lot of annoyed lately because you are busy taking care of us." Mr. Hans was worried about Wei's neglected work because lately frequent back and forth to B town helped Hana solve her problems.

"Yes, but it can be handled well. Fortunately there was a new assistant Rei. He can be counted on to replace me if I'm not around."

"Thankful! Hayu we ride. You must be tired." Invite Mr. Hans to Wei to rest in the room because the time is near night.

"Good uncle." Wei stood up following Mr. Hans walking towards the elevator and rested his body in their respective rooms.

By dawn the voices of the Adhan were mutually simple. Hana, Caterina too Rara is awake. Hana who was held by Rara approached the closet and immediately cleaned her body after Rara came out of her bathroom.

Followed by Caterina who is already neat. Before Hana went to the bathroom Caterina even took a shower and changed her clothes.

"Where are you going?" Tanya Hana who was a bit surprised to see Caterina who was neat by wearing polite clothes. Shirts are also long skirts.

"Eh. wait-wait! Brother is coming too. Wanted to know his talk." Hana who is neatly wearing clothes is just combing the origin of her hair.

"Aren't you really going to come?" Wonder Caterina by looking at Hana questioningly.

"Yes. Let's push the bad luck!" Rara immediately pushed the wheelchair and directed to the mushola that had gathered worshipers. The morning prayer is over.

Hana, Caterina also Rara sat outside the mushola. Everyone from within the mushola stole-view might feel somewhat astonished by the existence of the three of them.

"Good morning! Want to follow up on a cult study?" Friendly kang Gavin who still lowered his gaze even though his face was directed at the three of them.

"Iya kang before I leave for France later this afternoon I want to listen to his lecture kang Gavin." Answer Caterina without burden.

"God willing." Everyone in unison expressed admiration.

"Let's start the morning study!" Kang Gavin opens the Quran.

"Please open the letter of Al-A'raf suray to 7 verses 172 and 173, 174."

Kang Gavin read the Quranic Verses like melodious and shahdu. To make those who listen to him so carried away by the beauty of the Quran.

"Let's read the meaning!" Kang Gavin read the meaning of the verse.

*Remember! When your Lord brought forth from the sling (spine) of their descendants, and Allah SWT took witness to their souls, saying, "Am I not your Lord?" They said; You are our Lord, indeed we testify." We did that so that on the Day of Resurrection you would not say, "Indeed, we were disobedient to this covenant."

In addition, that ye may not say, "Indeed, our fathers have joined the Lord long ago, while we are the descendants who came after them. Will You destroy us because of the deeds of the ancients who were lost?"

Thus do We explain the verses so that they may return to the truth*.

That is how Allah SWT explained how when we were created while still being a spirit. It was when we were spirits that we testified that we recognized God as our Lord. But when men were created and sent down to earth, many forgot themselves. Forgot to have been created for the purpose of worshiping Allah SWT. Forgetting our purpose will be to return to Allah SWT to the village of the Hereafter. Forgot himself once admitted Allah SWT as God then why they became arrogant even some who do not recognize the existence of God. Forgot that he was weak and powerless if not for the help of Allah SWT. Forgetting himself is very fragile if it is not Allah SWT who strengthens. Forgetting himself is a creature and not a Catholic. What makes them forget?

Lust. Lust makes them forget who they are. Lust that makes him arrogant. Lust makes him forget that one day he will die. That lust is what has imprisoned him. Imprisoning conscience. Imprisoned faith. Imprison his senses.

Shethan always deceives them with his lust. What makes us forget our ultimate goal is death. That will return us to the afterlife.

So lucky when we are destined by Allah SWT as a devout Muslim.Muslims who are mu'mjn.Because out there many people who stray out of Allah's guidance SWT even died in a state of infidelity. It is fortunate that we are still gathered with those who always love Allah SWT. Remind each other in kindness and warn us of evil. All of that is an incredible pleasure that cannot be obtained by just anyone. Only God moves us closer and farther away. Only God who pleases us to always in this event equally demands knowledge of hope for the pleasure of Allah SWT. All of that is a pleasure that cannot be achieved by just anyone.

So always be grateful for the blessings that Allah has always given

Always be grateful for the trials that we always face. Always be grateful for the opportunity that Allah SWT gives to face all problems. Always be grateful for the enjoyment of Islam and the faith that God has given us.

All of that is the gift of Allah SWT that is unequaled with the treasures we have.

Then return to the way of Allah SWT, O friends, ask forgiveness if we ever commit sin and khilaf. Indeed, God expects us to return to His way. Allah SWT always awaits us in every third of the night. Do not miss the opportunity to chat with Allah SWT at times ijabah. In those times that God always sends down His bounty.

We are weak beings with no power over anything. Then ask God for all our problems. Our wishes. Over our complaints. Of our helplessness. And for the pleasure and health that has been given to us.

Don't be an easy slave to forget! Forgetting who we are. Forgetting where and where we are going.

Always remain in His way. Istiqomah in good deeds.

Always Istiqomah in the faith.

Always Istiqomah in loving our partner because of Allah SWT.

Always istiqomah in truth.

Always involve Allah SWT in everything so that our hearts are calm. Ask Allah SWT for guidance before doing anything. So we get a lead.

And I finished this morning lecture by discussing the three verses of the letter of Al-A'raf.

All shortcomings come from me and the truth comes from Allah SWT

We end with the prayer of the kifaratul majlis. Subhanaka Allohumma wabihamdika Astagfiruka waatuubu.

And for the last time, there is our brother who will return to France. You can say goodbye to each other.

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi.

Kang Gavin ended his talk.

Everyone in the mosque shakes hands with each other. Then one by one approached Caterina and Hana. They shook hands tightly as if Hana and Caterina were his brothers.

Everyone says "Fii be safe." May you be in the protection of God.

Their sincere attitude made Hana and Caterina finally shed tears from being moved.

In the last queue there was Nadia who was already familiar with Caterina. As soon as Nadia approached Caterina she immediately hugged Caterina tightly for a long time. They hugged each other spilling what was in each other's hearts. Although their meeting was short, their hearts were so strong. Nadia sends prayers to Caterina. Both of them cried to let go of farewell.

Everyone around her was moved and shed tears. Nadia slowly loosened her embrace.

"Take yourself! Let us know when we get there!" Nadia wiped away the tears of Caterina who was scattering melted on the cheeks.

"Sister Nadia also take care of herself! Pray for me at every brother's prostration so that Caterina can get a clue."

"Yes." Yeah."
