Melody Love Aqila

chapter 27 Secrets of the Heart

Shinta went home with a pale face, she won herself over before knocking on the door, she did not want Aqila to feel worried.

"tock.tock...tok.." Shinta knocked on the door

"Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarokatuh"

Shinta

"Wa' alaykumussalam warahmatullahi wabarokatuh" Aqila replied as she opened the door.

Aqila kissed her mother's hand and led her in. After his mother sat down, he prepared two dishes, rice, fried tempeh and sambal to eat together.

Shinta saw her second child who was asleep, she stroked her head and kissed her cheek, a sense of guilt in her little heart for leaving her all day.

"Is Hardcore fussy during the work?" ask Shinta.

"No, ma'am, he's very clever. He was the capture of Zainab with Adi" Aqila said proudly.

"Is it hard to eat?" ask Shinta

"No ma'am, he ate a lot of it" Aqila replied

Shinta and Aqila washed their hands, prayed, and ate a simple meal without using a spoon. Aqila deftly cleaned the dishes that had been used, then washed and stored on the shelf.

"Aqila, I don't work anymore. Tomorrow I'll find a new job" Shinta said

"Mom, Aqila has learned to make fish shields from her mother Adi, and she also said she had difficulties because her customers were increasing" said Aqila

Shinta's eyes sparkled, he felt he had found a way out of his problem. He patted Aqila on the shoulder.

"Thank you, we can make it together" Shinta said.

The next day Shinta and Aqila started making fish shields, initially he left it only to his mother Adi, but over time the customers ordered it directly to him.

Aqila felt like she had been acting strange for a week. Laras becomes more reserved, always moody and prefers to be alone. Aqila asked several times but was always answered "nothing".

"Well, can we talk to each other after school?" Aqila said while watching Laras face

"What do you want to talk to me about?"

Said Laras, his speech a little tart.

From Laras' reply, Aqila felt her worry was right.

"Many, very many. please do not refuse ya.." said Aqila while holding the hand of Laras.

"Alright" said Laras, he surrendered.

After the school bell rang, Aqila took Laras to the school park. They sit side by side.

"Say Laras, what's wrong with you?" aqila

"Don't I say, there's nothing" Laras replied

"Then why do you keep such a distance from me?" aqila

"It may be just your feelings" said Laras.

Aqila flinched, she had not expected to get such an answer from Laras.

"Laras, I apologize if I have done anything wrong" Aqila said

"What's your fault?" answer Laras.

Aqila fell silent, she did not know what her mistake was. He tried to turn the clock to remember the mistake he made to Laras, but the result was nil.

"You didn't do anything wrong to me, Aqila. I just feel sad. I love Brother Arif, but it seems like my love is clapping one hand. My heart felt broken and broken. I am an ordinary woman, not beautiful and not smart. I realize love cannot be forced, but I cannot resist my hatred for the person who seeks to be close to it." Barrel Vocations.

The crying of Laras exploded after being held back by him for so long. Aqila also shed her tears, she felt her friend's heart was suffering very much without realizing it. Aqila embraced Laras, they cried hugging each other.
