Pursuing the Details of His Love Tasbih

Chapter 23 - Help

"Get me a thick shirt, Dek!" shafa cried to Marwa. "His hands were a little ice, even his lips were until blue. She was really cold" he said, pulling a blanket over Meizia's body, then taking off her wet clothes.

While Marwa immediately took thick clothes to her room, Meizia was currently placed in the guest room.

As Shafa tilted Meizia's body to dry her back, she was suddenly stunned, as if surprised at what was on the woman's back.

"Why, Mommy?" marwa asked as she put down the thick clothes she had just taken from her room.

"See this, Deck!"

Marwa peeked and she was also stunned to see the longitudinal scar on Meizia's back. "Have he been tortured?" ringis Marwah.

"Most likely, yes" said Shafa, who dried Meizia's body quickly. "Take the hairdryer too, Dek, let the hair dry quickly. All the eucalyptus oil, let the body warm."

While on the other hand, Ameer took a quick shower as both her parents as well as both of Hana's parents were already waiting to hear Ameer's explanation.

After finishing the bath and changing clothes neatly, he immediately came out.

At first glance Ameer's gaze met with Hana's gaze, the woman must be wondering what really happened.

"Are you ready to tell me?" ask Umm Nayla firmly.

"I'm sorry for taking Meizia without asking permission first" Ameer said.

"Why your face?" hana asked venturing "And why is her wrist hurting?"

Ameer lowered her head, reluctant to tell others about Meizia.

"Ameer, why shut up?" The father spoke up.

"Meizia was determined to get away from her mother, Bi," Ameer said. "But his mother still forced him back so he attempted suicide."

"Astag."

Both of Hana's parents screamed in surprise, as did Hana.

"But why?" ask Hana again.

"We will not force it" Abi Thohir said. "At any time we came here to tell her that Hana refused to be betrothed to Ameer, we as parents can't force."

"Why?" asked Ummi Nayla who looked surprised to hear the words of her sister-in-law.

"Ameer loves another woman, Auntie," Hana replied with a calm smile. "I can't marry a man who's already carved another woman's name in his heart."

Ameer gave a faint smile hearing Hana's wise reply, she was truly grateful to the woman who had accepted her decision and dared to make her own.

"So you really don't want to be betrothed to Ameer?" ask Abi Zaid again.

"Yes, Om." Hana answered firmly. "And I hope that you will also bless that Ameer loves her, for I can see that Ameer's care and love are unusual on ... What is her name?"

"Meizia" replied Ameer.

"Hem, what a pretty name," said Hana. "I'll pray for you both."

"Thank you." Ameer immediately replied.

While her parents were speechless, they could only look at Ameer and Hana in turn.

The two young people firmly refused to be betrothed so that they could no longer force. However, accept Meizia?

"How is he doing, Ma'am?" ameer asked when her two brothers came.

"He was very weak, his lips were even blue and his body was already like ice" Shafa concluded. "The wound on his hand was exposed again, so call the Doctor here." Further.

Ameer immediately stared out, the rain was still quite heavy. "Is the doctor ready to come?" ask Ameer who can't hide her anxiety.

"Yes" answered Shafa.

"I think we need to go to the police" Shafa said, making everyone look surprised.

"What do you mean?" ask Ummi Nayla.

"He's got some scars on his back, pretty much deep. I think he's being tortured, too."

Everyone was dumbstruck by Shafa's explanation, and Ameer was no exception. "So I think it's appropriate for this matter to be brought to the law. Because I'm sure there must be a lot of people who have the same fate as Meizia, they need our help."
