The third week of Ramadan.
Back Bilal took his holiday rations to take the wife for a walk. Indeed, from the time he was married he had not taken her away on a honeymoon. He is still focused on worship and work, but attention is still given even if only from phone or chat messages.
Today they set foot on a beach not far from Jakarta. Anyer Beach, Banten. The beach is still pretty enough to spend the afternoon.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still stinging. But wind gusts are already more dominating to cool the body.
"A'a actually want to invite you to umrah in this Ramadan," said the Habib on the sidelines of their footsteps who were swept by the waves occasionally.
"Spirits?" Merr remembers the last time she was with Akhri. At that time in the month of Ramadan, a few months before He married again with Kania.
"Yes, if the month of Ramadan the reward is more so can be solemn. Unfortunately, this year I did not clear my schedule. But hopefully the next year can." Bilal rubbed Merr's head, gently. The woman smiled, amidst the wind that made her big veil flutter.
"I used to umrah, but only once felt in the month of Ramadan. It feels calmer, sometimes many local residents who distribute free dates when it is near the time of breaking. Well.. at that time the heat is very hot, so rich is not strong. Thankfully Him?" Merr stopped her speech, she almost told me about the experience of Akhri who brought Merr near the zam-zam faucet area. He at that time took a glass of water and squatted down to water his feet that felt hot. It was done repeatedly until Maryam felt a slightly fresh body.
Let it not be too hot, before further his tawaf. –Akhri's soft speech sounded in his mind.
Merr looked at Habib's face, narrowing his eyes against the sun.
"Not continued?" Bilal smiles.
"No papa, A'. Sorry, it's best not to continue."
"A'a know, must have been the same time as him, huh? Do you remember a memory?" Bilal clasped his wife's shoulders, while his lips still flashed a smile. This is not only once twice his wife slipped one momentum that he might remember while being with his ex-husband first.
"Emmmm?" Merr turned her face away. "Kesana, yuk! I want to take a picture over there."
Merr tried to divert, she turned her head again towards Bilal who was looking at her unblinkingly.
Sometimes, loving you who have mass is often pinched the heart. But I shouldn't be upset about that. A'a jealous? sure is! but I do not want to force my desire that only allows you to put the name A'a in your heart and mind after Allah SWT and the Prophet. But A'a also has to be patient and accept that one flaw, as a consequence of marrying you. Your heart may still be imprinted with Him in the past. (Bill)
The man replied with a nod of his head. His hand was still tightly holding his shoulder. Walk slowly down the beach to the place where his wife pointed earlier.
A'a shut up, I'd rather offend him. Maryam occasionally glanced to the side, but several times also caught Bilal who also glanced at him.
"Come, where are you going?" Bilal asked after arriving at the designated place. He opened the bag, took the DSLR camera from his bag.
"It's good here?" Eager. Bilal smiled, nodding. Start opening the lens cover after that fiddling for a moment.
"A'a want a picture of you alone first."
"I can't take a good pose." Mary laughed shyly.
"No papa, we'll take a photo of the two using their tripods. Beautiful style, yes." Bilal has taken a position.
But Maryam is the least fit for the photo she just stood up. Confused what style would be like.
Clik...
"A'a, I'm not ready!" Maryam Protest. Bilal laughed and saw his portrait.
"No papa, good.. again yuk." He lifted the camera again.
"Where?"
Clik...
"Look at this, Habib Bilal's wife was pouting."
"Rese! The oath!" Maryam pushed her camera a little, upset.
"But pretty baby, look at the results first."
"Beauty what? must be blur, it's..."
"No, look at it first..." Bilal showed me the results. It is not blur but still for Maryam the image of her is ugly.
Maryam glanced back, after which she walked away while throwing her face away.
"Dih. I like to know A'a saw his expression."
Maryam did not respond, she still walked a few steps while reaching for her bag to pick up her own phone.
"I want my own photo, A'a prank," he grumbled. Makes Bilal laugh. Maryam raised her phone and pointed the front camera at her.
Bilal's hand took it slowly. "It's better to take a picture of the two." Bilal grinned while clutching Maryam's shoulder which was still a little frown fixed his gaze.
"Ready, smile here.look at the camera, don't go to A'a." The insinuation made Maryam sigh then stare at the camera, after which a faint smile.
Clik...
Bilal dropped his phone and saw the results.
"MashaAllah, what a beauty..." Maryam blushed. "His partner" Bilal continued, laughing as Mary's smile faded.
"Hpnya herein..." Upset, should reach the phone in Bilal's hand but instead kept away.
"Later on, A'a will borrow, again" he said, while Maryam sighed. Bilal fiddled a little. Then show Merr. "Wallpaper is good, right? There's a picture of us."
Mary looked at the screen and smiled. Because Bilal posed with a little lift chin, then grinned. For her does not reduce the level of handsome on the face of her husband instead, looks funny.
"Basic prankster!" Merr pulled her husband's cheek. After taking his phone back.
"Loh emang A'a prank?'
"It's the moaning, the pantes of the Hafiz like the sprain of A'a. You know if it's a fad must actually make your prey angry first just stop."
Bilal laughs. He gently rubbed Maryam's head. After that, he spread his eyes around. The gusts of wind were getting stronger blowing, he also lifted his camera and then looking for the right engle. After that take out the tripod from inside her bag, prepare the position, set the timer on the camera after pulling slowly Maryam's hand.
"We're both taking pictures here..." Bilal bent one of his elbows. Where the understanding Merr directly held onto that arm. Timer sounds are heard. "Yang– smile..."
Merr complied, she smiled. Clik... Bilal changed his position, holding both of Merr's hands. They looked at each other with natural smiles. Clik...
Some photos were taken in different poses. It looks very natural because Bilal only directs a little. Lastly, they took a sitting position. Bilal clasped Merr's hand, while Maryam's head rested on her husband's right shoulder. His gaze looked straight ahead, while Bilal's own view pointed to his wife.
"I love you, my angel," he whispered, five seconds before the camera caught a picture of the two of them.
Mary looked up later. Then smile. "I love you too."
Bilal further developed his smile, tightening the grip on his hand, while the other hand rubbed the cheek of the wife who was still leaning her head on the shoulder. Looking at some coconut trees swaying in the wind.
