LOVE STRATA 1

CS1 Prayer for My Husband

The bride has changed into regular clothes. The game he chose was the game of giving Via from Jogja, including also with the hijab. Of all that, Meli never forgot the brooch her husband gave her, Azka. The brooch was always worn, and guarded like a precious jewel.

Anjani, Berlian, and Alenna ask permission to enter Meli's room. As soon as the three entered, the pleasant aroma of the night quickly broke out to spoil the nose. Their eyes were also filled with flowers scattered on the bed. That room was supposed to be the bridal room for the first night of Meli and Azka.

“It's done, Mel?” anjani asked as she approached Meli who was standing in front of the mirror.

“A little more,” Meli.

Anjani asked no more. She let Meli further remove her makeup. Diamond and Alenna immediately took the initiative to insert wedding gifts into Meli's room. Anjani agrees and helps. It didn't take long for the three of them to move the wedding gifts into Meli's room.

“Anjani,” call Meli. She had finished removing her makeup.

“Iya, what's up?” ask Anjani as she approaches.

Meli pointed at her wedding dress that was hanging neatly. Next to it is a series of jasmine that was used by Meli. The jasmine Azka wore was also there.

“You don't want to steal a bride? Said the first person anyway let pepet nikah,” said Meli. Although his tone was not too excited, but it was successful in making Diamond and Alenna laugh.

“Where, Anjani? Steal it,” tell Diamond with the candle.

“Aaaah, later!” Alenna stood up, took one of the jasmine strings, then moved quickly draping the jasmine around Anjani's neck.

Anjani smiled anxiously at the behavior of his friends who were so enthusiastic about expecting himself soon after marrying Mario. Anjani responded with a joke as well, so that Meli could be entertained with it.

“Other friends have you gone home?” ask Meli with a better facial look, side effects jokes her friends.

“Not yet. Still help clean-up in front,” bright Diamond.

Meli sighed deeply. He closed his eyes, then smiled. Anjani, Diamond, and Alenna let Meli like that. Azka's sudden departure will be very natural if it makes Meli sad.

A few seconds passed, Anjani, Diamond, and Alenna exchanged lyrics. They began to worry about seeing Meli constantly smiling while closing their eyes. Moreover, from earlier they did not see Meli moaning or shed tears. They even witnessed the stubbornness of Meli who kept smiling as Azka said goodbye to her.

“Mel, if you want to cry, you can use my shoulder to lean on, “ said Berlian.

Meli's eyes open. His face is still smiling. He saw each other one by one.

“God willing I'm fine guys. I will always pray for my husband, even if our distance is no longer as close as our lips when they merge,” Meli explained.

Suddenly Meli's face blushed in shame remembering the moment when Azka erased the distance from her and put their lips together. Not stopping just by blushing, now Meli began to smile herself in front of Anjani, Diamond, and Alenna.

“Ehm, Mel. We'd better go home, yeah. Let you rest.” Anjani wants to leave.

Anjani knows, Meli needs time to be alone. You need to rest so that your body and mind are better. Alenna and Diamond can read Anjani's intentions. They both nodded, coming home.

He drove his friends to the front of the house. The meeting of male friends just finished helping to tidy up their wedding equipment. They also went home.

“Anjani, Brother Mario, thank you for helping everything from the beginning. Alenna, thanks for the beautiful make-up. Diamond, my room decoration is beautiful, thank you,” said Meli while smiling sincerely.

Meli's views shifted to Juno, Ken, and Dika. Meli smiled sweetly.

“Kak Ken is indeed a cool cameraman. Juno, thank you for helping with the chair lift, yes. Hopefully not gout. Hehe.” Meli chuckled softly, then her gaze turned to Dika.

Dika. His eyes were still on Meli. The look on Dika's face showed concern since Azka said goodbye to Meli earlier.

“Dik, thank you for coming,” said Meli with the same smile as the smile served to other friends.

Dika did not respond to Meli. Still silent where he stood. There was no smile, nor were there any words that slid. Until then, Juno who was beside him immediately nudged Dika's shoulder.

“Sst. Bengong aja anyway! Conscious, ikhlash!” Juno whispers.

It was obvious to everyone there, especially Meli. Dika sighed harshly, then displayed a brilliant smile for Meli.

“Sama-sama, Mel. If you need entertainment, we are all ready to entertain you.” Dika kept smiling at Meli.

Meli chuckles back. There was a bad feeling because her friends were so worried about her. However, Meli continued trying not to complain, especially until the tears cleared. After that, greetings and a wave of hands accompanied the departure of his friends. Ma, Uncle Sam, Aunt Sarah, and Renal also came home.

“Nduk, you better rest first,” advises Fatimah with a motherly tone.

“True. Your mom and dad would like to drop off the remaining berkatan for some subscriptions at the kiosk. Adit want to come?” Roni offers.

“Iya. Adit follow,” said Adit, enthusiastic.

Meli smiled, nodded, then returned to her room.

“Nduk, Meli. This, while eaten.” Fatimah handed me a plate full of wedding cake.

“Iya, Mom. Meli go in first, yes.” Permission to enter his room.

Meli does not rest as suggested by her parents or friends. Meli quickly headed to the bathroom to take ablution water. The washing of ablution water refreshes everything, including his mind and heart. Meli smiled while reading the prayer after ablution.

The wedding in bed attracted attention. Mukena who is still neat in the creation model is immediately taken, used for prayer at that time. Meli was very passionate in her prayers and prayers. Several times the name Azka is said to accompany the prayers of Meli. The determination to be a devoted wife is immediately imprinted in the heart. Meli will always pray for the health, safety, and happiness of Azka, her beloved husband.

“Mas Azka, I love you,” Meli said sincerely.

So in prayer and feeling, that a tear slid from the corner of the eye. It was the first tear that came. Meli's lips kept smiling. Dzikir. Meli continued to pray for her husband, without pause, tirelessly.

Uncle Sam's house.

“Anjani, can you come here for a while?” Ma called Anjani.

“Iya, Mother. What's up?” Anjani sat down beside Ma.

“By which Ma you entrusted to Juno have you received that time?” ask Ma.

“Already, really. Thank you, the game is good.” Anjani smiled sweetly at Ma.

Ma nodded his head. He even left Anjani for a bit to pick up another robe. Ma's new hobby is to give the princess a robe to wear everyday. Anjani really likes it.

“You know Mr. Kades our village, right?” ask Ma later.

“Juno's dad, right?” Anjani answered as she knew.

Ma shook his head. The mimic of the face and the forefinger hints at the word no.

“Already changed. The head of his village is not Juno's father anymore. In the near future Juno's father will move to this city. He has a new business here. Juno's father said that you can be close to Juno and invite Juno to do business,” explained Ma.

Anjani digested Ma's explanation. Anjani doesn't know about it at all. During this time Anjani was not too close to Juno, because Anjani slightly kept her distance so that Juno did not overdo it making her baper for constantly saying love.

“Ma has one more news,” added Ma.

“What, Ma?” Anjani wants to know.

“Juno's father again asked you to be his son-in-law,” explained Ma.

“What?” Anjani was aghast at the news Ma brought.

A week ago, when Juno brought souvenirs to his home, Juno had a little talk about the father who still hoped that Anjani would be willing to become his son-in-law. Anjani thought that the intention was only said to Juno. Apparently, Juno's father also told Ma.

“Certain, Ma received it?” Anjani has been stirring himself.

“It's not that easy. Ma knows what you feel like Juno. Although Juno is very famous for his good looks in the village, but whose name is the heart can be forced. So, Ma told Juno's father. Ma handed everything to you.” Ma retold.

Anjani. Mind everywhere. He did not want to run away again like the beginning before he arrived in the city.

“Because Juno's father will soon be staying in this city, don't be surprised you yes if suddenly Juno's father meets you,” Ma's advice. “Face, don't run away like you used to!” advice from Ma again.

Anjani did not answer. He was still shocked by the news that Ma had brought from the village.

“Hei, bengong also you!” Ma found Anjani still silent.

“Insya Allah Anjani will not run away again, Ma.” Anjani tried to be more mature in addressing the situation.

“Good. Uh, if Nak Mario still has the intention to propose to you again. Tell quick. Don't miss even Juno's father first.” Ma understood his daughter.

Anjani smiles. There was a feeling of excitement when Ma mentioned Mario's name. It is clear that Ma is on Mario's side. However, on one side Anjani starts to get confused. It would be ridiculous if he suddenly asked Mario to marry her immediately.

Drrt .. Drrt ..

Just discussed, Mario appears in a short message to Anjani. Mario asks Anjani to come to his new shophouse.

“Should I tell Mario about this?” anjani.

Connect ….

When Anjani was confused about the news brought by Ma, Meli still dissolved in her prayers for Azka who flew to Medan to see the condition of Om Candra. How was Om Candra after the accident when she was attending Meli-Azka's wedding? How did Azka go through her days without Meli?
