Loving You In Silence

Episode 42

The sky was very clear this morning. The sun's highlight exerts a reflective effect on the dew on the foliage adding zest to Anita. He split the streets early in the morning.

Anita promises to take Zahra to the airport, they have agreed to meet at the airport. Today is his planned return two months ago.

In the boarding room, Zahra was ready to go to the airport, she did not bring much stuff because she only came home for a while. He applied for a week off at his college because he had to return home as soon as possible. Two more days are official applications from the Wildan family.

Yes, after Zahra had been praying Istikhoroh for a few days, he had faith and his heart was very steady to accept Wildan's proposal.

The Flashback

Two months earlier.

“nak, how are your decisions?” ask Abah at the end of the phone.

“bismillah, Zahra received Kak Wildan bah's proposal.” Answer Zahra steady.

“alhamdulillah, son. Abah will be telling the family soon Wildan.”

“but bah..” sahut Zahra hesitate. “Zahra can apply terms in advance?” Zahra asked softening her voice.

“requisites for son Wildan? You can ask him directly later.”

“no. Zahra will ask for your opinion first.”

“well. Say!”

“Zahra accepted this proposal, but for his official application Zahra asked for time until Zahra finished the exam first. It is difficult to leave college in the near future bah.”

“just that?”

“there are other terms. But this time Zahra will ask him directly to Brother Wildan. How's bah?”

“good Zahra. Later you will tell the family son Wildan, hopefully they will wait again. The important thing is that you have received a proposal from Wildan.” Abah. Then I ended the call after saying my greeting.

Back to the present

With Sylvi, Zahra's roommate, on her way to the airport, they drive a motorcycle. Their cost distance with the airport is approximately 30 minutes.

Arriving at the airport, Zahra and Sylvi immediately search for Anita's whereabouts. Anita sat in the waiting room of the airport lobby with a suitcase in front of her feet. He opened his phone when he heard a call ringing.

“assalamu’alaikum, I'm in the lobby waiting room.” Anita said without stale bases. Zahra called him. It was certain to ask Anita's current location.

It didn't take long for Zahra and Sylvi to show up. Zahra was astonished to see the suitcase Anita had brought.

“where are you going? How to bring a suitcase?” ask Zahra.

“follow you..” say Anita relax.

“serious?” zahra's face immediately sparkled. His friend will accompany his journey and at the same time witness the sacred moment.

“seriously lah. I got permission from mom and dad kok.” Anita answered with a hug from Zahra. Suddenly tears rolled down her cheeks.

“makasih.” said Zahra, heard once that he was holding back sobs. Anita immediately let go of that hug.

Somehow he became very sensitive this time, and knowing Anita would come to Palembang became a strength for him. There's a sense of relief creeping.

“hey why cry?” ask Anita in wonder. Anita also looked at Sylvi questioningly, while Sylvi just shook her head and then flicked her shoulders.

“already in.ayo in. Sylvi thanks yes.” said Anita. He took his suitcase. Zahra still controls her emotions. A few times wipe away the tears but the tears just get more and more flowing.

“sama-sama, you guys be careful huh. Oiya may later we video call on her H day right?” sylvi Pinta. Sylvi is the closest person to Zahra among all the residents of the boarding room.

“ready! You also carefully go home.” Sahut Anita while giving a thumbs up.
