Love in the Waiting

MEETING AJENG

Sheila has just arrived at one of the Public Relations Institutions in Jakarta. He has made up his mind to visit his cousin Ajeng who is currently serving a sentence related to the attempted kidnapping case some time ago.

Sheila was hesitant to get out of the car. He just squeezed both hands into the end of the blouse he was wearing. Because 2 days ago when he visited Ajeng, the attitude shown by his cousin was so sad. Ajeng is angry and disappointed that Sheila is considered to have betrayed him.

Sheila took her breath deep a few times. Even the man who was next to her at this moment had always noticed that. Who else wouldn't be Aldo Erlan's assistant. Aldo is indeed some time this often accompany Sheila to go anywhere. Aldo who had permission first to his boss before going to meet Ajeng. And yes Erlan who does know if at this time they are establishing closeness was not forbidding, most importantly Aldo still remember his responsibility on the job.

Aldo looked back at Sheila. He then ventured to hold Sheila's hand. Such a cold hand signaled between the fearful and anxious Sheila.

“Nothing ?”Aldo asked who was still holding Sheila's hand.

Sheila raises her head.”I'm afraid that Ajeng's attitude is rich before.”ujar Sheila is sad.

“Yaudah we go home only if so, next time go to Ajengnya if you are ready.”saran Aldo while stroking the top of Sheila's head.

“Sorry for always inconveniencing and disturbing your work these few days.”ujar Sheila while looking over with teary eyes.

Aldo who saw it immediately cupped both cheeks Sheila.”Hey ko that way, I'm not bothered at all. And again all the work I can still handle

Don't think about me, I'm fine. Now think about yourself yes.”saran Aldo in a soft tone.

Sheila smile.”God is so good with me. I am surrounded by people who are so sincerely affectionate and love me.”ujar Sheila.

“Thank God because you are still given the opportunity to be a good person.”Ujar Aldo.

“My change of attitude also all started from you, you who made me aware of my mistakes. Thanks yes..”ujar Sheila while shedding tears.

Aldo wiped away those tears and stared so gently at the woman before him.”Don't cry please. Your tears are precious. Do not spend it for things that are not too important.”pinta Aldo.”So want to go in or we go back ?”Ask Aldo again.

Sheila sighed.”Bismillah come in.”tekad Sheila.

“I accompany ya Sheila.”tawar Aldo.

Sheila nodded.”Alright”ujar Sheila.

Both are now walking towards the place.2 officers there as usual will do some protocols in accordance with the regulations in place of the Public Relations Institution.

Sheila and Aldo were already sitting quietly in the waiting chair. Before long Ajeng came out with an appearance so messy. He looked so angry when he saw who was visiting him. He even threw his eyes at Sheila.

“Lo want to do again here huh?”Ask him with a brush.

Sheila stared at Ajeng with deep.”Sheila wants to see big sister, miss is also the same sister.”ujar Sheila.

“Heh kangen ? Sure you are ? or do you just want to see my suffering here ? Lo satisfied to see my condition rich gini Sheila ?”Ask Ajeng while smiling here.

Sheila shakes weakly.”Sheila was not happy to see this kind of sister. Sheila just love the same sister so Sheila came to see her sister.”ujar Sheila a little sobbing.

Aldo rose from his seat.”You should be grateful that he still cares about you. Realize this ga lo form of reprimand from what you have done. You lost a child not because of Sheila, but because of your own behavior. Your greed that makes all your happiness God takes a moment Ajeng. Be aware before you are more comfortable with your own actions.”sentik Aldo while pointing towards Ajeng's face.

Sheila held onto Aldo's arm and shook her head. As a gesture to calm Aldo."Al do not get carried away with emotions, at this time you know your own psychic kak Ajeng is shaken. I beg Al.." - Ajeng said softly.

"But Sheila, look at him.." said Aldo restrained as Sheila stopped Aldo's speech by clasping Aldo's hand so tightly.

"I beg Al, here you are just accompanying me right ? I don't want you to get carried away into my problems and Ajeng's sister." Sheila and Aldo just stared at her with a pus.

Sheila then looked back at her cousin.”I brought this brother, repent brother. Fix it all, I am sure with brother improve themselves brother then happiness will always be with sister.”ujar Sheila while giving a parcel that he was carrying at the time.

”Sheila excuse me sister, sorry if the arrival of Sheila actually makes you uncomfortable. Assalamu’alaikum.”pamit Sheila as her hand pulls Aldo's arm slowly.

Ajeng just stared at the departure of the two.

I am a sinner, but do I deserve Your forgiveness, O God. Lirih Ajeng in heart.

With trembling hands he took the parcel and saw a set of mukena and the Qur’an in it. He smiled and was determined at the time to improve himself. The king wants to change at this moment.

..........

When he got into the car, Sheila shed her tears that he had been holding back when he met Ajeng. Ajeng's words that seemed to corner him as the cause of Ajeng's life destruction so that his chest was so tight.

"I am guilty Al, I am the one who always destroys the happiness of others.. I.."jeng continued to curse himself.

Instantly Aldo took her into Aldo's warm arms. Sometimes he even sprinkled a kiss on the top of Sheila's head.

"Don't curse yourself, it's not your fault" Aldo said, stroking Sheila's back.

"But that's the truth Al, did you hear Ajeng said I destroyed his happiness ?"said Ajeng still crying.

Aldo let go of his embrace, then cupped Sheila's cheek and looked into those brown eyes so deeply."I told you, everything that happened with Ajeng was not your fault. This is the fruit of his behavior that is always evil to people. You tried to pull him to stop, right ? but he was still determined to always do evil. So this is not your fault, Allah has rebuked him at this time." Aldo assured Sheila.

"You don't think the same, do you, Ajeng's brother, Al ?"ask Sheila lirih.

Aldo shook his head."I am not a fool who is easily consumed by the talk of others." Aldo said as he looked at Ajeng so gently.

"Thank you Al, thank you." said Ajeng while hugging Aldo.

Aldo felt something strange in him. Her heart was so calm as Ajeng hugged her. His heart was beating irregularly. It was fortunate that he could normalize his current condition.

Remember with your promise Al, you're waiting for him. You can't put any feelings on someone else. There is someone you have been waiting for a long time. Do not fall in love with Sheila, Al. Aldo said in his heart.
