Mahabbah Love Khalisa

61

Khalisa took a leisurely step through the corridor after finishing the last class before the long Idhul Fitri holiday. He carries a cloth bag containing an invitation card that just arrived yesterday from Banyuwangi. In each invitation card there is also a QR code to get a plane ticket from Jogja to Banyuwangi.

Khalisa knocked on the door and said his greetings before entering the HAWASI secretariat room full of members. They want to make an election for a new manager.

"It hasn't started yet, has it?" Khalisa sat in one of the empty seats.

"Not yet, wait for some people who haven't come." Answer Aliyah.

"What the fuck you're talking about, I think it's serious." Ask Khalisa because when he entered just now he saw Syifa and some other members like talking about something important.

"We heard that Kak Fawas wants to marry a fellow lecturer." Syifa replied who looked most excited about it.

Khalisa's eyebrows raised, he was also happy if Fawas finally married because from yesterday he was hesitant to invite the man who had proposed to him. Khalisa did not want to hurt Fawas twice. But he would not hesitate after hearing the news.

"Sister Fawas did not lose anyway completely rejected you eh can inshaa Allah better, lecturer anyway."

Khalisa smiled thinly, although he had closed the proposal but it turns out that almost all students here know it. There will be no secrets to keep, oral is very dangerous. Keeping oral is much more difficult than early morning prayers.

"That's what you said." Tegur Ikha's.

"And really rather than me talking behind the sin of mending talking in front of the person directly."

Khalisa's face turned lazy when he knew Syifa had also talked about it in the back.

"Thank God I'm so happy that Brother Fawas is getting married soon." Khalisa.

Syifa was about to reply to Khalisa's words but he saw Hasan enter the room, it meant that the selection of a new administrator was about to begin.

Hasan opened the election of the manager and gave a little welcome, he said a lot of thanks to all the members who have collaborated for all activities. Hasan also apologized if as long as he led there were words or behavior that made them offended, he was actually just a leader who was full of mistakes.

"Please friends open the HAWASI application on the phone, I have opened the time to vote, can be clicked on the candidate to become the manager of HAWASI."

Within minutes they had the results. Previously all the prospective managers had been asked for approval so Hasan did not just appoint him.

"I will announce the new HAWASI board that will serve for one year, Chairman Muhammad Lutfhi of Chemistry studies, vice chairman Syifa Fauziah of Law, secretary Ikha Nur Laila of Communication Sciences, and the president of the Department of Law, treasurer Khalisa Syanin Alindra of Pharmacy." Hasan read the results of the vote. He also mentioned the division managers namely Idarotut Tahfidz division, Jam’iyatul Qurro’ division, HR Education and Development division and Publication and Public Relations division.

"I hope we can all appreciate each other especially the new HAWASI manager."

"Before I close, Azfan will first give good news to all of us, please Azfan." Hasan saw Azfan sitting among the other members, he had already been informed by Azfan about his marriage to Khalisa. So that Hasan could not hold back his smile, he sat in the front seat as Azfan advanced.

Azfan was nervous when he was about to tell the news when his chest was so rumbling to tell the world that he would soon marry the girl he had loved, the girl he had secretly noticed, the girl whose name she whispered very slowly at each prayer in one third of the night.

Khalisa saw Azfan, he commented on the smile of the knot hoping that Azfan's nervousness disappeared a little like when Azfan was about to join the MTQ race. After all, Azfan has stood in front of many people in Turkey and even won the race.

"Friends, I will tell you that on the 2nd of Shawwal, inshaa my God and Khalisa will get married after two weeks ago I preached Khalisa very simply, I hope my friends can attend our happy show."

The whole room was excited by the news because they did not see the closeness between Khalisa and Azfan then suddenly the two will get married in the near future. Their expressions varied, some immediately congratulated Khalisa, some did not believe and thought this was just a joke. There are also some people who put up an expression of dislike because since winning the MTQ race, Azfan turned into the center of attention. Even they hoped to get closer to Azfan even though the guy was very quiet and closed himself off. But their hopes were dashed. Not stepped already fell first.

Syifa was speechless even now her face was red, her tears were held back so shocked by the news. So Khalisa refused Fawas because he wanted to marry Azfan. Syifa thinks Khalisa's type of guy is a rich, narrow-eyed and smart Chinese like Levin. Syifa considers Levin the perfect figure for Khalisa. But they seem to like the same two people. It is fitting that Syifa's feelings so far are not good, if she sees Khalisa then she wants to get angry and corner the girl. Turns out this is the answer.

Khalisa distributed the invitation to his friends according to the name listed. Khalisa did not miss a single one including the newly joined members.

"Wait a minute, you guys sit down." Aliyah asked Khalisa to sit in the middle as well as Azfan. While the other members surrounded the two people. "I'm certainly not just curious, others are also curious so let your mother ask before getting out of HAWASI."

Khalisa laughed at Aliyah's style of speech like a detective questioning her suspect.

"When do you like each other?" Ask Aliyah.

Khalisa's eyebrows raised while Azfan held a smile, he himself did not know since when the love appeared in his heart and flourished until now.

"Further question?" Khalisa could not answer that question.

"Who expresses his feelings first?"

"Khalisa." Khalisa answered who was greeted with boisterous screams by others. Even Khalisa proposed to Azfan first, if they knew for sure the whole room would be more excited.

"What makes Khalisa like Azfan."

"Astaghfirullah, when asked so anyway Mbak."

"Because he is simple, it seems that I do not need anything else near him because his own existence has made me happy, inshaa Allah he can also guide me Istiqomah in the way of Allah."

They cheered again while Azfan just stole a glance at Khalisa.

"Try Azfan dong, the time from now is silent?" Faqih chimed in, "it was red."

Azfan raised his face, what could be answered.

"Why do you like Khalisa?"

"Actually I can give you a thousand reasons but surely it will be over."

They laughed, Azfan's face was very innocent but his words were able to make them unable to help but laugh.

"Khalisa is something that I find difficult to achieve, like he is the sky and I am the earth, it is impossible to unite, but Alhamdulillah Khalisa is perfect is not asking for anything maybe because he also has everything, because he also has everything, I thought that until whenever we could not unite but one day Khalisa nyeleleletuk want a calligraphy dowry of one meter then I made the calligraphy for him that inshaa Allah will be the dowry of our marriage later, then I will make the calligraphy for him, thank you Khalisa for choosing me." Azfan ended his long sentence by commenting on the sweet smile on Khalisa whose eyes were glazed over.

Even to this day Azfan does not believe that he will marry Khalisa who a few months ago only one of the students who came to eat gelato. Khalisa who was super friendly and immediately called the name Azfan and praised him amazing because it was the first time Khalisa saw a left-handed person. If Azfan could spend days, how he felt so lucky to be with the girl.

"Geez you are very different, Khalisa's answer can make others laugh but right you are the one who answered even make us want to cry." Aliyah.

"Well, may your marriage always be happy and baroque." Hasan said sincerely.

"Later come." Khalisa circulated his views to his friends while continuing to share the invitation card that had been delayed due to the impromptu interrogation by Aliyah and Faqih just now.

"Syifa, yes." Khalisa gave Syifa the champagne-colored invitation card, "oh yes you said Kak Fawas did not lose my rejection because he got much better, you are right but sorry, yes, I'll marry the man you like." Khalisa said that phrase with a big smile. If Syifa thinks Khalisa will stay silent when he humiliates Khalisa then he is wrong. Khalisa is not a weak girl who will stay silent when she is bullied. Khalisa was waiting for the right time to reply to everything.

Luckily Khalisa has Renata and Jaya who taught him many valuable things and now he is implementing them.

They ended the meeting by shaking hands with the senior brother who will not be in the organization anymore because they have to focus on the thesis.

"Because!" Khalisa screeched when he saw Kafa stepping through the corridor, he half ran after Kafa who did not turn his head even though he had called him several times. Since their debate at the art festival at that time, Khalisa had not been able to talk to Kafa because he had never seen his cousin even though they were on campus. How can Khalisa apologize if Kafa doesn't give him a chance to talk about it slowly. Khalisa wants to understand that he can be happy with Azfan, the man of his choice.

"Well, wait a minute." Khalisa's pulling a little Kafa coat.

Kafa stopped his steps and turned his head, looking intently at Khalisa.

"Why, are you still mad at Cece?"

Kafa brushed off Khalisa's hand holding his suit and took a step back without letting go of Khalisa's eyes.

"Ce Khalisa still thinks I'm Cece's family?"

"Of course, you're Cece's bravest and kindest brother." Khalisa's voice gently tried to soften Kafa's heart.

"Why doesn't Ce Khalisa tell me if you guys want to get married, I know from Umi and Abi, Cece knows what they're saying?"

"Say what?"

"I'm told to apologize, I don't want to apologize, I just don't want Ce Khalisa to suffer, now it's been proven that Mas Azfan is not suitable for Cece, the cost of marriage must be money Om Daniel and Aunt Ica right, as a prospective husband what Mas Azfan loves?"

Khalisa swallowed his saliva, Kafa did not know that Azfan gave all his savings, Azfan gave his two ATM cards to Khalisa, Azfan sincerely gave everything without leaving anything. Even Kirana gave cash that the amount made Khalisa surprised, he said it was the result of batik orders that were crowded several months. Khalisa had rejected it but Kirana still insisted on giving the money. So after this Khalisa promised himself to help the cost of Safa and Marwah school because their journey is still long.

"Please don't talk recklessly Kafa." Khalisa lowered his voice almost like a whisper because he did not want to make Kafa even more angry. "Later come."

"Cece don't expect me to come." Kafa stomps his feet leaving Khalisa.

Khalisa breathed a heavy sigh looking at Kafa's back that was getting further away. Kafa is not a person who easily wavers and gives up easily. Khalisa knows Kafa won't forgive him that easily. But this is his choice, if Kafa loves him then Kafa should respect that.

"I'm sorry."

The heavy voice made Khalisa turn his head, he immediately smiled seeing Azfan in front of him.

"Nobody needs to be forgiven, I'm sure he'll be able to accept you."

Azfan nodded, despite the smile on Khalisa's face, but Azfan knew that Khalisa was currently so hurt by Kafa's treatment. Azfan was eager to embrace Khalisa and said everything would be fine as Rindang did in the hospital at that time.
