Pursuing the Details of His Love Tasbih
Chapter 6 - Facts About It
"Assynogaal?" ameer exclaimed as she entered the house.
"Waalaikum salam" said the mother who immediately approached Ameer. "Where?" Ameer's beloved mother immediately put her hand on Ameer while Ameer just grimaced, she knew her mother asked for the pashmina gift.
"I lent it to a friend, Ummi," said Ameer who immediately made her mother look confused.
"Since when did Rizal wear pashmina?" ummi asks Nayla because she knows Ameer's friend is Rizal.
"Not Rizal, Ummi," Ameer said with a laugh. "But em ... Meizia," great-grandson.
Clearly the mother was more and more confused to hear his son's answer. "Meizia the woman you like?" tanyakanya.
Ameer nodded with a faint smile.
"Why can you lend him?"
"So I accidentally met him on the street, Ummi," Ameer replied as she embraced the mother and brought her in. "He was wearing a short shirt while the weather was very cold, so I loan him out fearing he'd catch a cold" he concluded.
"Fear he's in the wind or afraid your gaze is stained?"
"Yes that's how."
Ummi Nayla could only sigh deeply at Ameer's explanation.
"I go to the room first, Ummi, good night."
Ameer kissed Mother's cheek before going to her room, as did Umm Nayla who went straight to the room, to see her husband.
"Abi, we have to meet his parents Meizia," exclaimed Ummi Nayla without further ado which left Abi Zaid dumbfounded.
"meaning?" ask Abi Zaid.
"So Ameer met the woman, I was afraid that their relationship would go further without a clear bond. This is dangerous, Abi," said Nayla Ummi. "They are both adults, can arise slander ."
"Tomorrow morning we will discuss this with Ameer, Ummi" Abi Zaid said later.
"Tonight alone, so tomorrow morning we can go straight to Meizia with her parents."
...🦋...
Meizia grimaced as she stared at her reflection in the mirror while holding her cheek that had been bruised from the mother's blow. Her hair that was neatly arranged is now disheveled because it is pulled and grabbed by her mother.
Tears continued to flow profusely even though he had already wiped it many times.
This is not the first time Meizia has received a slap or blow from her own mother, but Meizia has also been whipped to unconscious just because she tried to escape.
"O Lord, why don't you take my life away from You and continue to torment me with this inner birth" Meizia murmured bitterly.
"What a cruel fate you wrote for me."
Meizia no longer knew what she had to do so now she could only blame fate.
Still with the clothes, even still wearing Ameer's jacket, Meizia went up to the bed. He huddled, weeping, lamenting his tragic fate.
The mother's words continued to ring in her mind.
"You were born of sin, Meizia! Bringing sin and will always live with sin, it's your destiny so just accept it!"
Those lash-like words were constantly reminded by Mami Lala whenever Meizia tried to go against her destiny as a night woman. Moreover, Meizia was born from a prostitute and pimps, without knowing who her father was.
"Let me die, Lord!" meizia murmured before she picked up dreamland.

The next day ....
Meizia woke up when it was noon and even the sun was already very high.
He who was hungry immediately came out of his room but Meizia was surprised by the sound of sighs from the Mother's room which was right in her room.
as Meizia looked very upset, she immediately banged on her mother's room while shouting, "Don't be here, Ma! I beg!"
"Don't bother Meizia! Or do you want to replace Mama?" the mother shouted from inside the room.
Meizia only groaned in annoyance then she re-locked herself in her room. Meizia covered her ears with earphones and she tuned music at high volume so as not to hear the disgusting voice.
"When he promised me this house would be our clean place, but why would he do that here. I hate Mama!"
...🦋...
On the other hand, Ameer and her parents have now entered the housing where Meizia lives.
When Abi Zaid takes Ameer to meet Meizia's parents, the man eagerly agrees. Hoping that way Meizia would give him one chance to get close.
"Are you sure the house is here, Meer?" ask Abi Zaid.
"Yes, Bi, last night I drove Meizia up to the front of the alley there" replied Ameer. "But the thing is I don't know which house he is."
"Try asking people, son," suggested Ms. Nayla.
Ameer stopped his car right on the side of the people who were crowding the greengrocer.
Ameer went down alone and approached the mothers of the complex.
"I'm sorry, Mom, I'd like to ask you a question" Ameer said. "Where's Meizia's house, huh?" his question that instantly made the faces of the mothers changed.
"Meizia's Mami Lala's son?" ask them in a cynical tone.
"I don't know her mother's name" Ameer tried to be friendly.
"Here the compound is called Meizia who is only her son Mami Lala" said another mother.
"Then it was Meizia" said Ameer.
Instead of answering, the mothers actually noticed Ameer's appearance from top to bottom, making Ameer feel uncomfortable.
"In the house of blue paint, no 21," said one of them later.
"Thank you" said Ameer.
"Astagfirullah, when his face looks like a good man. But still snacking with prostitutes, totally perverted," whispered one of them.
"But this is the first time anyone has looked for Meizia here, usually the other person is looking for Mami Lala" another whispered.
"Maybe Meizia will inherit her mother's prostitution business, so she's getting known."
Meanwhile, Ameer has now arrived at Meizia's house.
Ameer knocked on the door and not long after, Mami Lala who only wore a thin kimono opened the door that made Ameer and the father immediately turned his face. Ummi Nayla could only be astonished at the appearance of this woman in front of her.
"Who's looking?" mami asked while tying her messy hair.
"Meizia, I'm looking for Meizia," Ameer replied firmly and still turned her face away.
Simultaneously, a man came out from Mami Lala's room.
"I go first, Mami, thank you for the breakfast" the man said, patting Mami Lala's butt. "I've left the check in bed."
"Thank you again, Honey," said Mami Lala who made Ameer and her parents grimace and of course they were confused to see the interaction of the two people in front of her.
"Ah yeah, you guys looking for Mei?" mami Lala asked after her client left.
"Yes" replied Ameer.
Mami Lala noticed these three uninvited guests in front of her with frowns.
"Who needs Mei? You or you?" He pointed at Ameer and Abi Zaid in turn.
"What does that mean?" ask Ummi Nayla.
"I mean, who needs Mei's service?"
The ambiguous question made Ameer and her parents even more confused, and now their minds were raging and began to suspect something especially after they met the man.
"Nothing" replied Ameer. "I've come to meet Meizia's parents, we want to talk about something important."
Mami Lala stared fixedly at Ameer and she recalled her client's complaint last night about Meizia going out with a man.
"Are you Mei's boyfriend?" asked Mami Lala who now put on her cold face. Ameer had already opened her mouth to answer but what was said by Mami next left Ameer dumbfounded. "May can't have a girlfriend, her life belongs to a man who dares pay her dearly."
