My Bow to the Destiny of Love

Early stage

It's been a few nights, Ardian's been studying regularly. Starting from memorizing prayer readings, to getting to know the names of Hijaiyah letters. As seen tonight. Ardian was led by Chayra to perform Maghrib prayers. After establishing the Maghrib prayer, Ardian sat in front of the Chayra study table. Chayra stood in front of the man.

"This is what's her name?" Ardian pointed at the Hijaiyah hurup who stood like a pole. Accidentally, his hand touched a little bit of Chayra's fingertip. Suddenly, the girl immediately withdrew her hand in surprise.

"Sorry. This. This is. The name is Alif." His voice stuttered a little. Shift his gaze so as not to be clearly displayed in front of Ardian.

"Eh, sorry. I accidentally touched you." Ardian was also surprised by Chayra's spontaneous actions.

"It's okay. Let's continue again." Chayra replied trying to ignore the incident. Even though his heart was beating very fast. However, he managed to master the situation.

Ardian did not listen to Chayra. He was busy watching Chayra. I have long been curious about this woman. Chayra's determination in keeping her aura really made her cluck in awe.

"Have you listened to my explanation?" Chayra only realized that Ardian was staring at her and not staring at the iqro book he was pointing at.

"Eh, yes, I was horrified. Just continue with the explanation." Ardian immediately focused his gaze on the iqro book again. So that the learning of the iqro book lasted until the man managed to call the letters one by one until the letter yes'.

"We're out for dinner first." Chayra closes the iqro book.

"Well, I haven't memorized those letters yet."

"Everything needs a process. That instant is definitely neither good nor bad."

"So far then."

They finally went out to dinner. Arriving at the dining room, they were immediately greeted with the annoyed gazes of the two old men who had waited for quite a long time.

"What are you doing? Why some nights, you're late and keep going." Mr. Sucipto who could not help but get upset immediately scoured Ardian and Chayra with questions.

"Did Papi not like to see Papi's only son alone with his wife in the room?" Timpal Ardian relax. Not knowing that his words made the hearts of his parents flowered.

Chayra looks cute. Reluctant to comment because in fact, they were alone in the room because Ardian was studying najai.

To this extent, the man had no intention of completely changing. He only intended to play Chayra. The girl really looked serious about teaching her religious knowledge. Pretending to be serious learns to build the girl's trust in him.

Sucipto and Renata looked at each other and smiled. All of that did not escape Ardian's sight.

Ok. slowly, Ardian. As the girl said, everything needs a process, her inner self.

"We're out tonight." Said Ardian on the sidelines of his meal.

"Where are you going?"

"Somewhere you've never been before."

"I'll consider it first."

"What to consider. You're going out with your husband."

Chayra. Debating such a trivial matter in front of her in-laws made her uncomfortable.

"It's okay if you two go out. What Papi was worried about, if Ardian came out alone and returned home was already being screwed like crazy." Timpal Sucipto seems to support his son's plan.

"Yes, Mommy agrees too." Renata chimed in. "Mmm.. aren't you overwhelmed by eating with a veil like that, son?" Renata suddenly questioned Chayra who never took off her veil despite eating.

"Ayra's used to it, Mi."

"But, Mami sees you are very troubled to feed food into your mouth."

Chayra smile. "It's just Mommy's feelings. I don't feel that way."

Renata finally smiled. Shaking the stance of women who Istiqomah is indeed very difficult.

"We've arrived."

Ardian's words made him raise his head. His eyes are perfectly rounded to see the young mudi that is dressed in various styles and models.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Gue told you from the beginning. I will take you to a place you have never been before. I want to know my world."

"You don't mess with me.." Chayra is getting uncomfortable. Breathing out repeatedly to calm his chaotic mind.

Ardian kept watching Chayra. "What do you mean?" Ardian pretended to be confused. "Gue has become acquainted with the religious world. Well, now it's your turn, who should get acquainted with my world."

"No. I'm not interested in your world at all."

"Gue did not ask you to be interested especially to enter the world that I like. But, at least you know and know the life I lived all this time." Ardian still took notice of Chayra. "Gue also has an appointment with my friend inside. Come with me, let them believe that I am married and have a beautiful wife and shalihah like you."

"I told YOU NO!" More emphasis on the word no. "Don't force me or I'll report your actions to Papi and Mami."

Ardian grunting. "Can you just threaten me with that word? Do you not think that I could have dodged the allegations. I also have no intention of throwing it out, right? I just want to get acquainted with my friends. They don't believe I'm married. That's what I need to bring in for them to believe."

"But not to go to this damned place. You seem to be setting me up. If you really want to introduce me to your friends, you can take them home."

"Udah ah, we're down now. They're waiting for us inside." Ardian got off the car. No matter the girl's refusal. Open the car door for Chayra. He stretched his hand out in front of the girl. "Let's not make me have to force you."

"You don't have to force me because I won't want to go out even if you insist."

"Come, manhunt.." Ardian pulls Chayra's hand out.

"NO...!!" Brushed off Ardian's hand violently. "You want me to yell and yell at you for muting."

Ardian clucked in annoyance. "Lho just accompanied me in. If you don't come in, I'll get stuck and can't get out normally. Do you want to see me come home with a bad mood, like Papi said when we had dinner last night?"

"You have a lot of choices. If you don't want that to happen, you don't have to go back to that place."

"But my friends are waiting inside."

"The choice is in your hands. If you choose to enter, I'll go home by taxi." Chayra looked at the man to wait for a decision.

"Wait, I'll tell them first if I can't get inside."

I'm just gonna call Kate's phone number. The man called out to him from behind.

"Ardian. So, bring your bini here?" Kate shakes hands with Ardian in their signature style.

Ardian glanced at the sexy-clothed woman holding Kate's hand. "Lho's girl?" ask Kate.

"Oh, obviously dong, Bro.." Kate kissed the woman's lips, which were greeted with a warm smile.

Chayra instantly averted her eyes looking at that scene. Istighfar several times. "I want to go home now. You want to go home now, or later?"

Chayra's words made the three people who were chatting casually in front of the car immediately turned their heads.

"The boyfriend wants to go home." The woman holding Kate stared into the car. His eyes widened when he saw Chayra who came to the night entertainment place using full Muslim clothing.

"The girlfriend is wrong costume or you really do bring Ustadzah?" Say that woman again.

"Not a lot of bacots. He's not my girlfriend, but my wife."
