Married for Marriage (Haris And Hana)

Chapter 6: The Voice of the Heart

The leaves of the Asan tree in the courtyard of the Amir Hajj house were scattered. In this week, strong winds often come over resulting in the intensity of leaves falling 2 times more than usual.

Hana stared at the scattered leaves from the window of her room. Some days he is no longer tasteful to do any activities, his heart is still filled with anxiety about his wedding plan which is approximately two months away.

Restless and agitated he felt. How not, Gibran who has been contacted repeatedly turned out to be unable to be contacted. Yura reported that her brother sent her an email and said that his phone had gone missing and the exam was coming so Gibran would focus on his test first and then buy a new phone. Knowing this increased his sadness.

Tok..

“Hana, can Ummi come in, son?” there was a knock on the door from outside.

“Iya Mi, briefly”

Hana wiped the tears and opened the door of her room. Ummi looked at Hana's eyes that looked puffy.

"What's up, son? Lately you are not cheerful as usual, you are also more locked in the room, you are also more, if you have complaints and are in trouble again let's tell Ummi as usual” Ummi stroked Hana's hair.

“Nothing, Mi. Hana just doesn't feel well just”

Hhhh, Ummi sighed Long, Ummi seemed to understand what Hana was feeling.

“You're thinking about marriage? Are you not ready to get married, son?” Umi continued to stroke Hana's head.

Long Hana was silent, and then she asked,

“Ummi, how was Ummi and Abah's wedding? Is it also set up?”

"Yes, Alhamdulillah used to be Ummi betrothed to Abah, Nak”

“How did Ummi feel when he found out that Ummi was betrothed?” Hana put on a serious face.

Ummi smiled at the question of the princess only wayangnya, now Ummi understand sitting problems. Ummi looked at Hana lovingly and replied,

“when Ummi was very young and did not understand about marriage, Nak”

 “so Ummi immediately agreed to it? Ummi instantly accepts with no rebuttal at all?” Hana membandrol Ummi questions.

Ummi nodded, then continued, continuing,

“Sama as you do, do not argue and obey the orders of parents but only...” Ummi gave a pause.

“Just why, Mi?” Hana's getting curious.

“Only Ummi When it was not expecting anyone, Ummi's heart was still not filled by anyone. Unlike you now who have someone you are expecting.

Hana gasped at Ummi's words. He did not expect that Ummi knew about his feelings all this time. It turned out that Ummi was secretly paying attention to her without her knowing. Hana was silent.

“If Ummi finds out why Ummi still agrees with Abah to match Hana?” There was a bit of disappointment in Hana's heart.

“Son, not everything in this world is exactly as we expect, there are secrets of God's decree in it. There are things that we must Imani and Yakini..”.

“On the one hand Ummi saw the seriousness of Abah to match you with the best man according to Abah. Abah just wants his son to be happy in marriage, faith and Islam. On the one hand, Ummi is actually waiting for your reaction, the reaction of the person you are waiting for is to propose, Ummi wants to see how the person. However, until now Ummi has not seen it at all.”

Hana lowered her head, inwardly confirming Ummi's words. Gibran also had no news from him, he was confused what to do. It still feels very hard to accept this reality.

Hana and Haris' marriage is approaching, only a month away they are headed for marriage. On campus, Hana also told all the things that happened to Yura, she spilled all her complaints.

Hana hopes that Yura has a wise view like Ummi, so that Hana's Step becomes light through all this matchmaking series. Only now could he tell Yura all the things because it was a holiday lecture and Yura had smallpox for some time.

Hana did not want to burden him because he was already recovering from his own trials.  Undeniably, Yura felt very sad, the news that should be good news because her beloved friend would get married instead.

Honestly, he really hopes that Hana will be able to become his sister-in-law by marrying Gibran. He not only considers Hana as a mere friend, but already like an inseparable sibling.

Yura instead cried bitterly, she cried hugging her sidekick. It can't be undone anymore, the invitation has been spread. Preparation is almost done. If he insisted on sending Gibran an email there in Morocco, it would be useless. It was feared that Gibran became upset and all his brother's struggle for college became futile.

In another corner, Arini and Haris were having a serious conversation, tears seemed to well up in the corner of the woman's eyes. Perhaps this was their last meeting before Haris and Hana got married. At least that's what Haris thinks.

“Mas, please, I love you so much, I cannot marry another man if that man is not you” Arini said with compassion.

“Sorry Rin, everything has happened, wedding invitations have been spread...” Haris closed his eyes for a moment before continuing,

“God willing you will find the best soul mate that Allah bestows on you, much better than me”

“If I can't afford to live this all how mas?” arini's tears that originally only pooled in the eyelids dropped slowly without being able to prevent.

“God will give you that ability, as well as me, it is hard to think that I will marry a woman I did not know before, I myself am not sure how I will live the household later, it feels later I will never be a good priest”

“I won't be able to mas! I won't be able” Arini shook her head.

“Then I have to how Rin? Tell me what to do? What can I do to calm your heart, only you can do it. Call on God because only God can help us and eliminate all the anxiety in the heart. We also have no ties whatsoever, do not let lust rule our hearts, believe in the decree of God, soul mate will not go where”

“Then marry me also mas, I am willing to be your second wife, your future wife is a shaliha woman, the son of an Ustaz, she will definitely be willing to do it, moreover, you do not love each other” Arini said this with trembling lips.

“Rin, don't let momentary desires rule your soul, don't let emotions affect your mind, you're too good to be, let alone with men who don't have the capacity I do. I can't do that” Dada Haris rumbled to hear Arini's words.

“But I mean it with my words mas, really!” this time Arini said firmly with a glare of sharp eyes.

“Rin, I'm sorry, for now I can't think clearly, please don't make me do things I can't do”

They close the conversation by leaving a feeling of tightness in the chest.
