Mahabbah Love Khalisa

34

Daniel exits Khalisa's ward first, he gets a call from the police as Khalisa's guardian. Daniel will go to the police station with Azfan and his acquaintance's lawyer to follow up on the case.

"I'm in, brother." The dianis got out of the waiting chair because the doctor and nurse were also out.

"Yes." Yeah." Daniel held the door for Dianis to enter. "Azfan, can I ask you for help again?" Daniel sits next to Azfan in front of Khalisa's ward.

"What's up, sir?"

"I asked for your testimony at the police station." Daniel lowered his voice even Levin who was sitting not far from them did not hear his words.

"I'll try." Azfan nodded, he stuffed the prayer beads he had in his hand into the pocket of the shirt.

"Thank you Azfan." Daniel patted Azfan's shoulder slowly. "Levin I'm the same Azfan wants to go first, you just go in." He told Levin, followed by Azfan.

"Yes, Mr. Daniel." Levin smiled blandly, now a lot of questions popped into his head. First why Azfan was here first and in a casual dress as if staying in this room. But despite thinking about it Levin did not find an answer why Azfan should stay here. Didn't they just know each other but already look familiar. Levin admitted that Khalisa was easy to get along with others but he did not accept this.

Levin turned to Daniel and Azfan who were now at the end of the corridor and disappeared after turning left. It was the second question that also made Levin have to think many times to look for answers.

"Sorry, this is Khalisa's room?" A man carrying two plastic bags bearing the name of one of the minimarkets asked Levin.

"Yes, you want to come in?" Levin opens the door.

"It's time to get out." He sniggered ahead of Levin because the plastic bag he was carrying was heavy enough that he could not bear to put it down immediately.

"Assalamualaikum, sorry to have made everything wait for so long because I actually brought a lot of food that will make my mother and Ms. Khalisa laugh happily."

Khalisa gawking saw Geza who was so coming straight to make his stomach feel amused by the joke of a guy of Kafa's age. Since childhood Geza did have the talent of joking, out of nowhere jarring like a canoebo dried in the sun.

Levin saw Khalisa, a trail of tears so visible on Khalisa's face. Khalisa's injuries were so severe that he cried after the doctor examined him. Although now Khalisa had returned to smiling but Levin could see the sadness on that face.

"Jeez Geza has not met for half a year now, do you really look good, eat skincare huh?" Khalisa spread his hands.

"Thank you for praising me." Geza approached Khalisa as if to hug Khalisa.

"Eh, what to say." Dianis held Geza.

"Geez don't get me wrong I don't want to hug you yeah, I'm waiting for a food that he says can make me laugh that smile." Khalisa laughed at the plastic bag in Geza's hand. "Geza we're not kids anymore."

"If I were born a woman, we would be bestie." Geza put one bag on the bed while the other he gave to Dianis. Geza took out all the Snacks to meet the end of Khalisa's bed. "Who would you like?"

"Eh Ko Levin." Khalisa saw Levin standing at the door. "Love Koko I used to, Ko Levin would like a minimarket Snack?"

"Hm?" Levin awakens from his daydream, "want." The answer.

"I recommend this Snack that I think is the best." Geza handed Levin a pack of tortilla chips.

"Thank you." Levin.

"Later Aunt Dianis same Geza nginep in my apartment only, do not need to find a hotel." Khalisa said, he received a Snack from Geza that had opened the package.

"Aunty Tesok there is an event at Hotel Aswatama so the plan is to go there anyway." Dianis has to attend the Jogja Chef Festival at the Aswatama hotel tomorrow so to avoid being late she will stay at the hotel.

"Tante don't go back to Banyuwangi, must masakin good food for me."

"Here deh." Dianis shook her hands, she had been here to attend the event but heard Khalisa was sick and she visited him. "Eh but he said the hotel is expensive huh, Ica there is a recommendation of a more affordable hotel not deket there?"

"Service and facilities at the hotel are good so they are the same price." Ica Reply.

"I have an Aswatama hotel voucher if Auntie wants to spend the night there." Levin took out 3 vouchers with the words Ashwatama Hotel from his bag.

"Do you really love Auntie?" Dianis without hesitation accepted the voucher. "No dear?"

"Ko Levin is his son who has a hotel so don't worry Auntie." Sahut Khalisa, he was afraid Dianis talked about the hotel in front of Levin.

"Oh yeah?" Dianis turned her head, "chindo is not just any chindo, what Auntie says you really choose the handsome theme that was not only handsome but has a hotel as well."

Khalisa shook his head faintly closing his lips for Dianis to stop talking about such a thing.

"Thank you Levin." Dianis put the voucher in her bag and continued her activity eating the Snack that Geza bought.

A little later Levin came home because he had to meet with community members to fulfill his promise to treat them to lunch.

Khalisa promised Levin that he would treat the boy after he was discharged from the hospital.

"Are you not in a special relationship?" Dianis asked after making sure Levin was really gone.

"Nothing is." Khalisa shook his head, he frowned when the nosy Geza threw the Snack wrap at him.

"I mean a man and a woman can't be friends without feelings between them."

"That's an old saying Auntie, now it's not like it." Khalisa replies to Geza throwing his Snack pack.

"The present age is also still valid, otherwise you are the one who likes."

"Dianist, you from the past until now his hobby seduces people huh." Ica moved to sit next to Dianis.

"Now I'm asking you, what category of daughter-in-law do you expect to be Khalisa's husband?"

"As for Khalisa, as long as he is happy me and his father God willingly agree." Ica emphasized her sentence to stop the discussion because it was probably too early for Khalisa even though she was married to Daniel at the age of Khalisa. But Ica tried not to curb Khalisa in any form because during this time Khalisa had become a submissive child. Even Khalisa willing to set aside his ambition to be a designer to be responsible for the hospital.

Khalisa's eyes twinkled at his mother's words, his heart pounding. Now all he has in mind is Azfan, the guy who always comes when Khalisa is in trouble. Does that mean he likes Azfan, but isn't it too early to sum up this feeling as liking. It looks like Khalisa has to fast more to get lost on the wrong path.

"You're still making calligraphy, right?" Daniel has broken the silence between himself and Azfan since exiting the hospital parking area where Khalisa was treated. Azfan was in the passenger seat next to Daniel, and they were heading to the police station to solve the crime that Revan had committed against Khalisa. Daniel will clear things up quickly without bothering Khalisa who will face the final test next Sunday.

"Still Sir." Azfan replied that from earlier was tense because there were only the two of them in the car.

"You work or calligraphy is sold by yourself?"

"Me and a few other friends are paid the same salary that has the place sir."

"I have a building that is still empty behind the market, you can use it to sell your own calligraphy because I believe your artificial calligraphy has a high selling value."

"No need sir, I—" Azfan whispered that prayer in his heart that one day he wanted to have his own shop to sell his handmade calligraphy. But Azfan whispered the prayer very slowly because he was embarrassed if his request was too strange. But for the creator there is no request that sounds strange because everyone has their own desires. Is this the answer to Azfan's prayer? God was so good to him.

"You don't have to pay rent instead you take care of the building because if there are no residents can be in vain, it is not too big but enough to display dozens of calligraphy."

Azfan saw Daniel in disbelief, why would anyone as good as Daniel give him such an opportunity.

"All this is not without reason because I also love calligraphy, please develop your talents, this is already the way God has given you through me."

"Thank you Mr. Daniel, I will use the building as best I can." Azfan rubbed his wet eyes. Without Azfan realizing the water that a few seconds ago pooled in his eye fertilizer now decayed instantly.

"I must thank you because you have helped Khalisa, my mother and I cannot continue to take care of Khalisa because he really wants to go to college here, he also insisted on taking care of himself, he said, we believe he can keep himself out of his company but not with people who do evil to him."

"God's Inshaa after this there will be no such thing again Sir."

"I hope so too." Daniel stopped his car in front of the police station.

"Sir Daniel I'm really sorry for this incident." A well-built man in a suit shakes Daniel's hand, Yoni is the manager of Casey Avenue's apartment. He felt so guilty about the incident in the apartment warehouse yesterday.

"I can't blame the apartment because I know security is tight enough but it would be nice if the security staff added vigilance, we don't know where crime can happen from."

"It's nothing with what Khalisa experienced but we'll finance the entire cost of Khalisa hospital and provide free rent for the next 1 year."

"Thank you but for the hospital fees I've paid for it."

"No sir, we'll send it to Mr. Daniel's account number."

Daniel nodded, they stepped into the office where his lawyer had been waiting.

Police have dreamed of all the evidence in the Kindergarten in the form of folding chairs that contained blood stains of Khalisa until the hijab of Khalisa is almost burned out.

"Please witness to testify." Pinta the police on Azfan sitting in front of him.

"The suspect named Revan has been planning the crime since 13 days ago by banging on the door of Khalisa's apartment every night, at first I thought maybe this intruder would commit a crime against Khalisa's best friend but it turned out last night he launched his action in the basement."

"Right, we got the voice recording of the victim and the suspect through the victim's cell phone and it's exactly what you told me."

"This is not ordinary sexual harassment because she has been planning since far away to even burn the victim's headscarf which can be said to be religious abuse because for a Muslim aurat is everything, Khalisa's been taking care of her all this time."

Daniel glanced at Azfan who seemed amazing giving testimony, he thought Azfan would be as nervous as when the guy was talking to him. But unexpectedly Azfan gave a statement smoothly.

"We also have evidence of a visa from the hospital."

Turn lawyer Daniel talks to the police while Daniel asks permission to meet Revan who is in the cell.

As soon as he saw someone coming, Revan, who had been looking down, immediately raised his face by stepping closer to the man he recognized as the father of Khalisa.

Daniel saw Revan's battered face, surely Azfan had taught him all-out mercilessly. Daniel could also see bruises on Azfan's face. That means Azfan has better martial arts than Revan.

"Don't expect to be able to inhale the outside air after this." Daniel was full of emphasis with a sharp look at Revan. The gaze was as if it was drawing out into Revan's heart.

Revan smiled obliquely with his lips turning blue and swollen.

"I think it's important that I've seen Khalisa without a hijab, I'm just wondering how pretty she would be if she didn't wear that cloth."

Daniel clenches his hand tightly and punches Revan's nose through the cell gap, causing Revan to flinch and slam back. The blow also made a loud enough noise that attracted the attention of some police there.

"Sir Daniel is patient, don't be like this." The police arrested Daniel and took him away from there.

Daniel sees Revan once more before leaving. Daniel can't control his emotions when dealing with Revan.
