Married for Marriage (Haris And Hana)

Chapter 2: The Dilemma

Hana sat in class watching the lecturer explain the general course. Although his eyes looked straight ahead but in fact the mind of the student smester one major in psychology is floating on a wattsapp message he received last night from Gibran.

Gibran was the older brother of Hana's friend Yura. The young man had long since put his heart on her. On the porch of Hana's house they meet for the first time. Gibran who at that time drove his sister to study groups together immediately interested in Hana who looked polite, graceful with

the face is also beautiful. From that moment on, a sense of interest appeared in his heart.

Gibran likes Hana in silence. At that time Hana was so young and still in school, so it was impossible to ask for her. The young man also did not want to invite Hana to date, because it was clearly prohibited by religion. Hana, who was initially indifferent, slowly also began to put her heart on Gibran. Of course Yura the best friend also gave her some spirit.

Confidence in Hana's heart came when Gibran said he would ask her after she finished college. It's been a long time. They wait patiently in silence. Busy self preparing for a good future by studying, working also seeking experience. That's how they live.

Overnight in a message via wattsapp Gibran said that he was going to Morocco to take his masgister program. He just got the good news that he won a scholarship there. Not to forget Gibran advised that Hana be pleased and ready to wait, God willing a year later Gibran promised to ask for her.

Sure enough, the message successfully made it difficult for Hana to concentrate on her courses. He was worried, Is it true that next year Gibran will fulfill the promise to propose him?

We all don't know what's going to happen.  Hana felt that Moroccan girls were not random girls. They have a beautiful face, it is difficult for men to resist their charms.

However, Hana must also think clearly that this is all for the future of Gibran, in Morocco at least Gibran will get a lot of knowledge and experience that God willing will be very useful later to be applied in Indonesia.

Resting hours. After performing the prayer service, Hana and Yura had lunch together in the campus cafeteria, Yura noticed the strange gurgle of her unusual best friend. Yura can already guess this must be about the departure of her brother to Morocco.

“You thought of Gibran ya?” Ask Yura who has seen the strange gurgle of the friend.

"Sit” said Hana with a little smile.

“You are calm yes, I know very well that Gibran is the person, he will certainly carry out his promise to save you”, Yura said while half hugging Hana. This friend of hers seemed to be able to understand what Hana was feeling.

“Hehe I don't think about that Kok” Hana's face flushed. He was too embarrassed to admit.

“Hahaha. Well, then doang face you already like a boiled crab. I know how you are too, we have an old position, and I really hope you will be my sister-in-law, Hana! ”

Hana blushed at Yura's words, confirming in her heart that she expected Gibran to ask her soon.

“But Yura, we don't know what the future looks like. How the path of destiny will lead us. Whatever it is I hope God gives the best for all of us. The best and most beautiful destiny of Nya” Hana hugs warmly Yura.

“You yourself how Ra, so same mas Ridwan?”

"Part of me to the Ridwan mas is only to the extent that I admire him, he himself may not think of me at all, and I think this is also the best, lest we think of each other the opposite sex, he said, we can insult the heart and mind, haha"

“Astaghfirullah, ah. Yes you are right Ra, it's not in vain I have a friend hafizhah Shalila is rich like you Hahaa” Hana joking but can not be denied, the girl admires her best friend, she loves her best friend, admiring her mature and mature mindset.

“Idihh, you haha” haha Yura laughed off hearing Hana's rant.

“Ah come, yuk get ready for class, now the clock is Paul, you know if he does not like his students late” continued Yura holding Hana's arm. Truly inseparable sidekick.

Hajj Zakaria's request completely filled Haris' mind, making him difficult to breathe and move. How not, the preparation to propose to Arini has been far away he thought and prepared carefully.

Arini is the only person she hopes will be her companion. The one whom he will pour out all love in a holy marriage is halal. Now that He is really in doubt, mother's statement last night about the soul mate turned out to be true.

On the one hand Haris is very eager to reject the offer, but on the other hand he is also not comfortable not to agree. Haji Zakaria is like his father. In addition to Haris feeling not fully devoted to him for what he gave him, he also has great respect for the Hajj Zakaria. The young man knew how charismatic Uama's sincerity was. And, if he refused Zakaria's hajj request, of course he would be very disappointed.

The dilemma approaches the taste. It was immediately ablution and the prayer of the sunna to calm its mind. Slowly he opened the mushaf al-Qur’an then metadarus continued the verse he had previously read.

Finished reading al-Qur’an his heart is still filled with worry. Haris can not decide this big thing as fast as lightning, but nevertheless inevitably and like not to like this he must decide. He rushed to see my mother to talk about this. The mother's opinion will be her main consideration in making a decision.

“Mother agrees you are betrothed to Hajj child Amir, Son!” said the mother with her shady eyes but implies firmness there.

“But ma'am, I know I want to propose to Arini. I've said I'm serious about asking him in the next 3 months" said Haris Lirih, he felt weak to hear his mother's opinion.

“Entah why do you feel like less sreg you are married to nak Arini, but maybe this is just the feeling of mother only” Mother again expressed her opinion.

“Why ma'am? Arini's a good girl. Insha Allah shaliha. Arini will be a good wife to me and be a good daughter-in-law to mom” Haris trying to convince mom.

“Nak, Pray istikharah! The decision is in your hands. Allah will lead you to a good soul mate, but if you ask the opinion of the mother, I am sure that the soul mate offered by Hajj Zakaria, his view insha Allah is not wrong... " Mom paused her sentence, took a breath for a moment.

“The most important thing you remember is how Haji Zakaria has helped our family from the beginning so that you can be like now? It's time you got her back, son! You're old enough to understand this, but whatever it is you want what's best for you. If you choose Arini in the end, I will be glad, as long as you are Happy” continued diplomatic mother.

“Alright, mom. Thank ye. Haris will pray istikharah and consider this matter well”
