Mahabbah Love Khalisa

169

Khalisa sees visitors filling the lobby of the Alindra Mall down there. This is the day that Alindra Beauty launched a new product in the form of scar removal creams and sunscreen products. Khalisa and Aisyah make two such products. After going through various processes that are not easy finally the product was officially launched first in Alindra Mall Banyuwangi and the city of Yogyakarta.

Khalisa's smile expands to see the enthusiasm of visitors welcoming the new product Alindra Beauty. Khalisa hopes this product is beneficial to the community and there is no such thing as when he made an anti-strechmark cream two years ago. Khalisa learned a lot from that incident.

"Drink baby." Azfan appeared behind Khalisa thrusting a bottle of mineral water that he had opened the lid.

"Thank you Bi." Khalisa squatted down before sipping the mineral water until half was left. I was thirsty because the weather was hot today.

Khalisa and Azfan will come down soon to greet the visitors who come.

"Alhamdulillah so far the show went well." Azfan looked down there. The lobby of Alindra Mall is filled with a sea of humans who are welcoming new products with passion. "This is the result of Umma's hard work, is Umma happy now?"

"Hm?" Khalisa raised an eyebrow, why did Azfan ask about his happiness? of course he was happy after seeing the public welcome the existence of the product.

"I mean, Umma always seemed excited when sewing and so happy after the clothes became." Azfan took a bottle of mineral water in Khalisa's hand and put it in a bag.

"Of course I'm happy Bi, seeing people happy with this product then I'm happy."

Although initially working in Alindra Beauty is not the passion of Khalisa but he is happy because his knowledge can be useful. When he was sad because he had to give up his dream to have a boutique, Khalisa always thought that many people would be helped by the products he had made.

Khalisa had to suppress his ego to be more beneficial to others than having to fulfill his own desires. After all, once in a while he could still make designs and sew.

"Papa said, Kafa and I and our sisters were born for this, we can't refuse it other than to obey our parents to continue the family business."

Azfan looked at Khalisa reaching out to stroke his wife's head.

Born in a rich family is not that easy, all needs are met but they must also be willing to give up dreams in order to continue the family business. It was as if they could not live for themselves. They live for many people. Not only consumers but also employees who work in Alindra Group.

"I'm proud of Umma." Azfan's hand went down to hold Khalisa's hand.

"I'm proud of Abi too." Khalisa kissed Azfan's back.

"Why?" Azfan didn't feel like doing anything that would make Khalisa proud.

"Abi's calligraphy and handicrafts are now a success."

"If no Papa would have given me that store building, maybe now I'm still working on calligraphy in other people's places."

Khalisa shook his head, "Abi has a great chance for this, since the beginning of the meeting I have been amazed by Abi's extraordinary left hand."

"Azka's left-handed, it's because of me." Azfan does not know if it turns out left-handed it can decrease in children.

"Why say that, I think it's the advantages of Azka, just because Abi and Azka are not like people in general does not mean you have to lose confidence."

"I'm worried that Azka is embarrassed because it's not the same as her other friends later."

"Azka was not that kind of child, we taught Azka to be confident."

"I know how Papa and Mama used to educate Umma because now Umma educates Azka in the same way."

When Khalisa's name was called, Azfan took off his grip with a heavy heart.

"I'm going downstairs first." Pamit Khalisa's.

"Yes." Yeah." Azfan stared at Khalisa's departure, passing the escalator into the lobby.

The visitors cheered Khalisa's arrival, this is the figure they were waiting for. Unbeknownst to them Khalisa has been there since the new event opened. It's just that Khalisa is looking from the second floor with Azfan.

"Good day everyone, how are you today?" Khalisa greeted the visitors who were present that day. Khalisa expressed his gratitude for their enthusiasm in welcoming the launch of the new product Alindra Beauty.

Azfan stood behind the visitors, his smile curling perfectly to see Khalisa ahead. He is proud of Khalisa's achievements. Azfan saw for himself how Khalisa had spent his time and energy to make one product. Khalisa devotes everything to producing one product for Alindra Beauty.

"I'll tell you a little bit behind the making of this product." Among the crowd, Khalisa could still find Azfan. His gaze was directed at Azfan behind the visitor. Azfan nodded and smiled as if he understood what Khalisa was thinking at the moment.

Visitors who had been boisterous immediately quietly prepared to hear the story of Khalisa.

"If anyone remembers, I was once a victim of kidnapping—"

Visitors exclaim that they still remember exactly the shocking incident where an inmate escaped with a police gun.

"It was a traumatic event for me, at that time I was physically tortured to miscarriage." Khalisa recounted it with a trembling voice, the pieces of the kidnapping incident by Revan are still stuck in his memory.

The thing that traumatized Khalisa the most was when Revan hugged his neck while brandishing a gun. A second later, a firearm explodes and Revan falls with Khalisa. Revan shot himself in front of Khalisa.

"After a few months, the wound had healed but the marks were still there and every time I saw the marks I would have remembered the incident, so I thought about making this product." Khalisa brandished orange colored tube which is a scar removal product.

"This product can heal physical scars and I hope it can also heal the psychic wounds of us all."

A boisterous applause was heard as Khalisa ended his remarks.

Khalisa provides pink goodie bags to visitors who have made per order one month before the product is launched.

Azfan also joined Khalisa and some of Alindra Mall staff to provide goodie bag.

Some visitors capture the moment with a photo with Khalisa and Azfan. Not every time they get to meet Khalisa. That is why when there is a chance they make the best use of it.

"Later tagged Ce Khalisa's Instagram account." Say one female visitor after a selfie with Khalisa.

"Oh yeah? but Ce Khalisa and her husband have a fanbase on Instagram." The visitor showed one of the Instagram accounts with the name Khalisa Azfan who always shared photos of the two.

Khalisa widened his eyes to see the account, he was like an artist or selebgram because he had a fanbase account. It turns out that not only Rindang has fans, Khalisa also has them.

As they were about to get out of the lobby to the car, the reporters gathered around Khalisa and asked questions. Azfan swiftly embraced Khalisa and asked that journalists not be too close. So did four security people who tried to protect Khalisa and Azfan.

Khalisa smiled at them even though he felt uncomfortable. Before the abduction, Khalisa never felt uncomfortable among the male crowd. But Khalisa can't be like before.

"Khalisa, would you please give a statement regarding the news that you are pregnant?"

For a while Khalisa was surprised by the question. Khalisa and Azfan have been trying to hide about the pregnancy. Only my family and close friends know. Because Khalisa had a previous miscarriage, Azfan wanted to keep it from happening again by keeping Khalisa's pregnancy a secret.

"Actually we wanted to keep this a secret until my pregnancy was more stable but it turned out that my fellow journalists already knew it."

Azfan close Khalisa's body to him, the media crew is quite dangerous because they still know Khalisa's pregnancy even though they have kept it a secret.

Khalisa learned of her pregnancy when she returned home. Before leaving Khalisa did feel there was something strange about him. He had a chance to drink the menstruation. But Khalisa did not menstruate until the following month. Khalisa pranks using a test pack and turns out the results are positive.

Khalisa and Azfan immediately got in the car because responding to the journalist's question would be endless. They should also go to Tahfidz Park immediately.

"Abi?" Khalisa touched the back of Azfan's hand. Azfan looked dreamy after coming out of Alindra Mall. Fortunately, Azfan is not currently driving.

Khalisa grasped Azfan's hand and reviewed the smile, he knew meeting many people could make Azfan energy drained. Even Azfan once said it was better to run around the field than to meet many people. But work requires them to meet people.

Actually Khalisa had asked Azfan to look from afar if Azfan did not want to interact with many people. But Azfan could not let Khalisa alone. He should always be near his wife.

"Abi's tired, huh?" Ask Khalisa even though he can see the answer from Azfan's face.

Azfan shook his head and smiled faintly, he did not want to make Khalisa disappointed. It was an important event for Khalisa.

"Have a rest, our journey is still long." Khalisa patted his shoulder so Azfan could put his head there.

"I should have been that."

"I'm not sleepy."

"Wake me up when I get there." Azfan placed his head on Khalisa's shoulder and closed his eyes.

They were on their way to the new Tahfidz Park. After raising money and volunteering funds from the alumni they finally have a more decent place—tak again in the living room shop Azfan.

Now some alumni help with guidance in their busy lives at school. At first Tahfidz Park only had two participants and then increased to 20 people. Azfan and Fawas took turns giving guidance as well as Khalisa and Ayin. They work together to print the memorization of the Quran.

Some hafidz continue their education in Yemen. Most universities in Yemen and Egypt have the requirement to memorize the Qur'an on prospective students. That is why they can use the memorization of the Qur'an to continue their education.

The car stopped in front of a two-story building with trees all around it. The building is located in the middle of the city but the surrounding environment looks beautiful with the presence of green plants.

The boys will follow the guidance on the first floor while the girls on the second.

Khalisa saw Azfan who was still asleep, he could not bear to wake Azfan even though they had arrived. Azfan's face looks very tired because he had to finish the job until late at night, namely sketching calligraphy for the Ulil Albab mosque which is being renovated.

Azfan lifted his head from Khalisa's shoulder after realizing that they had arrived. Azfan blinked and rubbed his eyes.

"Not built?"

"I don't have the heart to wake up Abi, I think wait a little longer but it turns out Abi has woken up first."

"Thank you, um." Azfan rubbed Khalisa's head covered in a pink headscarf.

"For what?" Khalisa tidied Azfan's hair a little messy.

"Because I let me sleep."

They got out of the car to Tahfidz Park. Fawas and Ayin have been waiting with the children and alumni and parents.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Azfan said after saying his greetings, he spread his gaze throughout the room.

"We just arrived too." Fawas.

They pray together that Tahfidz Park will always provide benefits and bring blessings not only to them but also to many people.

"We thank Ustadz Azfan, Ustadz Fawas, Ustadzah Khalisa and Ustadzah Ayin for helping our children memorize the Qur'an, we thought because we came from a poor family we would never get the chance to put our son in a place of rote guidance, but with you, our dreams could come true." One of the parents representatives thanked the tutors of Tahfidz Park.

"For us, the opportunity to guide them is far more valuable." Reply Fawas while looking at Azfan and reviewing a smile, he himself could not believe because he could be familiar with Azfan—suami a woman he had applied for. At first Fawas felt hurt because Khalisa rejected him and chose Azfan. But over time, Fawas was reunited with Ayin. Until finally Fawas can mengikhlaskan Khalisa. Now Fawas has considered Azfan like his own brother. For Fawas, sincerity is also a sign of one's maturity.

"That's thanks to everything, we can be at this point, finally Tahfidz Park has a better place." Azfan added. "I'm sorry because during the tutoring at our house, the kids felt uncomfortable."

The living room that is not too spacious is usually also a place where Azka plays. Sometimes Azka's toys are scattered everywhere. When the children arrive, Khalisa and Nadira must immediately take care of it. Azfan is grateful that now they have their own place.

"It's not Ustadz at all." Sahut their.

Azfan was very grateful because God gave him the opportunity to share knowledge. Azfan met with children who made him learn a lot from them about the meaning of patience and perseverance. They are so persistent as to memorize the Qur'an and practice it in daily life.
