Melody Love Aqila

Chapter 51 Proposal

The voice of the Maghrib Adhan sounds melodious to the heart, vibrating the soul, penetrating the recesses of the heart that have longed to meet its creator. Shinta and Anwar rushed towards the mosque, they did not want to be left behind to perform congregational prayers.

Anwar extended each of his prostrations in the Maghrib's ba'diah prayer, his tears flowing down his alphabet, he prayed that his relationship with the Shinta be cemented in the sacred ropes of marriage and kept away from filth, sin, and reinforcements.

Anwar looked at Shinta who was waiting for him, washing the ablution water made Shinta's face become brighter and fresher.

"Anwar, my father-in-law is Nice Grace" Shinta said as she lowered her head, she was ready to open up her life history to Anwar.

Anwar could not hide his surprise, Bagus Anugerah is the CEO of a large company PT. Lion Gold Company, its business consists of several industrial sectors and its assets are very abundant. Shinta's life is inversely proportional to the lives of conglomerates, he is very poor and full of struggle in meeting the needs of his household. He could have guessed that something extraordinary had happened to Shinta.

"My father is named Bambang Hadiwijaya.." Shinta's speech stopped because Anwar cut.

"You mean Professor Bambang Hadiwijaya?" ask Anwar

"Yes" Shinta replied

Anwar did not expect Shinta to be the daughter of professor Bambang Hadiwijaya, a smart man of Indonesian and German bresteran. Bambang Hadiwijaya's love for his homeland made him prefer to devote himself in Indonesia rather than living luxury in Germany. Anwar had learned of the death of Bambang Hadiwijaya's wife followed by her death from mass media coverage several years ago.

"Mother's friendship has led me to be the wife of the deceased mas Ardian, mother has.." Shinta's remark again stopped cut Anwar.

"Your mother fell down the stairs while on vacation in Bali and your father died of a heart attack" Anwar said.

"That's right" said Shinta.

"Shinta, why are you hanging out in the street?" ask Anwar.

Shinta sees a flash of anger coming from Anwar's eyes but he is unable to answer Anwar's question. He just kept quiet while lowering his head.

"May I meet Mr Good Anugerah?" ask Anwar

Shinta looked at Anwar's face fixedly, he was worried Anwar would seek information about the cause of his difficulties to his father-in-law, he did not want anything bad to happen to Bagus Anugerah.

"I intend to propose to you and ask for his blessing" said Anwar.

Shinta's face reddened, she blushed in shame, it only added to her beauty so that made Anwar's heart beat faster.

"Shinta, I want to talk to you" said Gamal, his attention then turned to Anwar.

"Anwar, what happened to you?" gamal asked, his face filled with anxiety.

"I had an accident, but now it's improving" Anwar said with a smile.

"If you need some help, I hope you won't hesitate to say it" Gamal said as he helped Anwar walk up to his father.

"Dad, this is the man who helped you in the accident" Gamal said.

Shinta was surprised by Gamal's words, he did not think the person who had helped his father-in-law was Anwar, his likes and admiration increased without realizing it.

Good Grace smiled at Anwar, he greatly admired the figure of Anwar who was willing to sacrifice for others.

"thank you for your help, son Anwar" said Bagus Anugerah, then answered with a nod of Anwar's head.

"Shinta, forgive me for making you suffer" said Bagus Anugerah

"I'm happy to be dad's daughter-in-law. The late Ardian treated me well, I am grateful to have been his wife" Shinta said.

"Ardian was gone, Gamal was thrown by his wife, while I grew old and weak.." lamented Good Grace, he decided his words because his breath felt tight and his chest hurt.

"Shinta, I thank you for finding Qeira, thank you for taking good care of Aqila and Tegar. They are very small, still in need of complete parental figure and affection. While you and Gamal need a good life companion." said Bagus Anugerah, he set his breathing back.

"Shinta, will you grant father's request before he dies?" tanya Bagus Anugerah

"Dad... say, God willing Shinta will fulfill the request of the father" said Shinta.

"Will you marry Gamal?" tanya Bagus Anugerah

Shinta's head was heavy, but she nodded her head. Anwar's eyes were perfectly rounded, his face turned dark, his mind was chaotic, his chest was tight and narrow, his heart was very sick and sore as it was slashed by a dagger, he left the room unnoticed by all, leaving a deep wound
