"Your host, where's the deck?" daron asked which made Aida look at Darion.

"What's brother doing?" asked Aida who made Darion look back at her.

"Later in the afternoon we will get married, and you will start living in my apartment," Darion replied making Aida nod.

Honestly, Aida herself still hesitated to marry Darion, but seeing Darion who had worked hard and tried to redeem herself from Mami Susan, made Aida try to strengthen her heart.

Aida then pointed out the addresses of the hostels she was occupying to Darion not far from their current position, Darion propelled his vehicle to the boarding houses, after arriving Darion ordered Aida to pack her clothes and belongings now.

"Sister, seriously want to marry me?" aida asked not to come down from there.

"Why?"

"I should ask you why sister, I'm a woman of the night, I've been used by many men, and you can get a more holy woman instead of me."

"I am sure that God rules over all of this, Aida, behind everything I do, I am always convinced that God has arranged everything, because God never violated a fate that was set thousands of years before I was created, and so did you" Darion explained.

Hearing Darion say that, Aida felt disbelief that Darion could be at the club last night, Aida was very religious to the pieces of an adult man, he said, maybe it was just a condition that took him like this.

"Why Brother Ion, so sure and trusting?" aida asked which made Darion take a deep breath.

"Mother and my Father always teach, put down trust in God not in his people, because the best place to put trust is in God, because God never denies his people, because God never denies his people, sometimes I am ashamed of Aida, I still like to forget God, but God has given me everything I want."

Aida's speechless.

"It feels like Dejavu, God knows better about us, maybe what is bad in our opinion but according to God is good, and vice versa, because God is closer to us. Even from the veins, I regret what happened last night" Darion put both hands on the steering wheel of his car.

He massaged the steering wheel of the brown leather car, spreading his gaze forward while Aida felt a smooth slap.

Suppose two years ago she put her trust in God she would not have fared as a woman of the night.

• the Flashback On

"Alhamdulillah, I'm finally a scholar too, Mak same Abah must know!"

Aida, who at that time had a fresh graduate status, seemed to celebrate the joy of her own life, after a long college struggle for the efforts of her parents, she finally graduated as an economics scholar.

"Dadam!"

Aida circled around him, looking for the origin of the sound that turned out to be from Abah and Maknya, she saw across the road there, Mak and Abah had just come down from the angkot.

Abah and Mak, just a roadside fruit trader, they can not accompany Aida graduation because they have to sell, they cannot sell, but Aida did not expect that Abah and Maknya came even though the graduation ceremony was finished.

Mak and Abah are about to cross the road to meet Aida, but due to lack of care they have not yet reached the sebrang, a sedan car with high speed directly hit the bodies of both parents Aida.

Aida who saw it was instantly shocked, she dropped her bouquet of flowers. "MAK! ABAH!"

Instantly Tears fell on Aida's eye patch, before her eyes both her parents were bounced several meters away onto the asphalt and were already drenched in blood.

Everyone seemed to be surrounded there, Aida immediately approached her parents, the graduation toga was drenched in the blood of her parents who wanted Aida to succeed.

"Mak! Abah!"

A man seemed to check the pulse of Mak and Abah, his face looked tense and sad. "Innalilahi wa innailaihi Raji'un, both are dead."

•••

Aida was still lamenting in front of the navel of her parents, she already did not believe anything, still stained in her head the sentences of her parents.

"Aida, if you are successful, do not leave the prayer son, never leave the prayer, Mak and Abah are old, only you guarantee the paradise of Mak and Abah, do not leave the prayer son, son, God never forces us into heaven but God does not promise us peace in hell."

But in the present condition, should Aida put her trust in God, after God took both her parents at once?

When Mami Susan arrives, she offers Aida a contract to be a night woman, Aida who is not well, without thinking clearly, though he is a Fresh graduate who is very easy to get a job according to his college majors.

• the Flashback Off

"Dadid?"

Aida's tears just come down considering the flashback flashbacks of her life that are so painful, but everything is uprooted when Darion immediately surprises Aida.

"Sister Ion?"

"Why are you, you're crying?" daron asked who made Aida wipe her tears.

"No, sister, I'll go get some clothes and clean things up."

Not yet Aida out, Darion immediately pulled his hand and then rubbed Aida's face with both thumbs.

"Whether I made a mistake, I'm your future husband, and I don't want my future wife to cry."

Aida is speechless, this romantic treatment really makes Aida's heart peaceful, despite the fact that Darion is the man she just met last night.

Aida just smiled, then got out of the car and walked into her boarding house leaving Darion there.

When Aida was gone, the sound of a phone ringing from Darion distracted Darion, it was the call from her Babah.

"Assalamualaikum, Bah?" daron asked as Aida picked up the phone.

"Ion, where are you, son, here now, there is a family that wants Agnes to be betrothed to you," Babah Arga answered by phone.

Darion let out a long sigh, it turns out that this discussion is still around matchmaking and matchmaking.

"Can't, Bah."

"Ion, you've disobeyed Babah, come here now son, kasian Om Arsyad you've been waiting."

Darion is being betrothed to Agnes, the daughter of her Babah twin sister, Arshad.

Darion and Agnes were actually very close, like a friend, because of the cousin's bond, but to be betrothed, Darion chose to reject it outright.

"Darion will be there."

Darion immediately turned off the phone when he saw Aida coming out of his boarding house carrying a bag of clothes and walking into Darion's car.

Darion acted as if nothing had happened while Aida was sitting next to him.
