Pursuing the Love of Siti

35. Dusk memories

A week later

Sit on the window. Staring at the afternoon sky that was starting to blush. The sunlight was so dazzling, as if through the roof of the house and the trees around his house. The light flakes that bounced to the window made him repeatedly grateful for His gift.

Siti's room faces towards the back of the house. Not far from his room, there was a small field inside the garden. Where children run to play ball, laugh cheerfully while waiting for iftar. Siti looked at them as if she was longing to join.

"Kak Siti let's play here" cried Dimas who was five years old.

Siti could only wave her hand. His desire to mingle with the children is very deep. He stared at his folded legs in his wheelchair.

Not far from where the kids were playing. Some young people were sitting with their partners, making Siti shake her head.

The twilight became a place for young people to meet each other, releasing the longing they feel. As Siti felt at this moment, I don't know who she missed for, which must be a sense of envy that bothered her.

Siti remembers Jo saying at that time "If you miss to collect everything, until the time comes, we release the longing when it is halal. I hope we look after each other,ti. I've also missed your badass."

Siti recalls Jo's words in her solitude "God, brother. I will keep the mandate, Jo. I will open my heart to Jo's brother praying for our wedding plans to become Istiqomah. Because I'm sure now, my soul mate seems to be Jo's sister, not Inspiration."

Even in my istikharah that looks even Inspiration. Ah, it seems like I should be more solemn.

Siti smiled at the man's words. Ah, why is she now so easy to smile when everything Jo does.

Don't you hurt this love

See you later on my body

It is no longer alive

And close these eyes for the last

Every breath

Blow your name

The oath

The heart wants to choose you

In my life oh dear

You're everything to me ooh

(Choose your heart, Ussy-Andhika)

Siti again struggled to see the atmosphere of twilight that afternoon. The child is home because it will soon break the fast. The twilight was increasingly revealing its light. The sun that had been glittering now began to hide behind the clouds.

The flashback

"You saw the sun. Soon it will sink." exclaimed Ilham as they sat on the floor of Ancol.

"Well, this is Maghrib. Yes, the sun is still standing." said Siti.

"Not that." Ilham's body turned to stare at Siti.

His hands clasped tightly. Their eyes looked at each other.

"You're the moon to me. For I am in darkness and you are the one who comes to shine. And I will be your sun, where your cold heart I will warm with the love I have."

Siti laughed at the words of Inspiration.

"You rhyme where. Must have read on google." ledek Siti. For months she was dating Ilham. Never before has he been romantic.

Inspiration is just a big grin. His feet immediately stood near the waves. Siti also stared at her watch, signifying soon Maghrib. Then pull the man to find the mosque or musholla.

Arriving at the small mosque, Ilham sat near the front saf. When I arrived at Mushola Ilham only wear shorts, then wear a holster provided by the Mushola. Siti saw her lover wearing a glove a little stunned. The man looks handsome.

"Son, you can adzan." Greet the officers at the mushola. Ilham refused because he had never been an Adhan.

"Can't sir. I've never been an Adhan." he refused.

"Try the deck." The officer immediately pulled Ilham standing near the mic.

The voice of Adzan Ilham. Calling on those around him to pray. The sound of inspiration makes many who come to pray.

"Thank you, kid. Your voice is good." said the mushola officer.

Flashback off

Siti flinched when she heard the siren signifying iftar had arrived. Dinda came to take Siti's dinner shirt. Since the beginning of the fast Dinda and Edwar break the house of Aisyah's mother. Since they knew, her mother must have had a hard time handling Siti alone.

Before long the voice of Adzan roared. Siti was shocked to hear the Adzan. It feels like I know that voice.

"who is adhan?" ask Siti curiously.

"Oh, that's the doctor who's on the training committee for the health workers here. Kan Sarolangun wants to open a new private hospital.

Why, ti?" sahut Edwar while eating his favorite boiled eggplant.

"Kayak knows her voice." replied Siti.

"You must know, really, ti. That's his real sister Nature."

Uhukk! Uhukk!

The city immediately choked. When hearing the story of Edwar "Ilham!" Answer Siti surprised.

"Yes." Yeah." Edwar replied casually.

Siti looked at the face of the mother who was starting to sour. There was a fear he felt, fearing that mom would lock him up again like that. The mood is gone. Siti immediately locked herself in the room. Edwar wondered why his sister was so sensitive to the discussion earlier.

"Ti, do you want to talk?" mother's voice from outside.

There is no word from the inside. the mother thinks Siti is asleep. Though Siti is not actually sleeping, her mind is raging between trying to keep the feelings of those around her like Jonathan, Jihan and her mother. The appearance of Inspiration that he missed, it did not make him happy. Except to make his heart grow angry.

a week ago

Jihan was shocked by her parents' matchmaking plans. If other men might still be able to find a reason to avoid it, but this is the Hermawan family. Jihan gets a fresh breeze can negotiate with Jo.

Same with Jo, the 40-year-old young man was no less surprised, when his parents wanted to introduce him to other women. Though his parents know that Jo wants to marry Siti. Jo let out a long sigh, there was a feeling of anger towards both her parents.

Jo and Jihan finally meet again, during a dinner at the Hermawan family residence. They were silent as the two families exchanged stories. Jo and Jihan wanted to talk together.

"Can't you?" Jo still can't believe that Jihan wants to be betrothed. Because, he knows Jihan's girlfriend Ilham. Even got engaged.

"Forced brother." Answer Jihan sissy.

Yes, he was forced to accept the match because of the Inspiration of the bet. Jihan hopes that if she accepts the match, Inspiration will be released.

"Why? How's inspiration?" jo asked still wondering how the continuation of the relationship Ilham and Jihan.

"Ilham's in jail, brother?" Jihan started as much as she pleased. His hand held Jo's hand, as if expecting help.

"Please, brother. Please accept this match. Just to pretend. Let papa set Ilham free."

"Why was Ilham in prison?" jo

"He used to beat my papa because .. " Jihan seems to think long to explain the real case.

"Because what?"

"Because.. because .. papa would harass Siti." Jihan replied still sobbing.

"What!" Jo stood up as if to beat up papa Alex who harassed his future wife.

"At that time, Inspiration was very emotional beating papa all out. Until papa experienced cramps in the stomach due to the actions of Inspiration. I don't blame Ilham or Siti. Because I know papa's character is flirtatious. Please brother Jo, please keep pretending to accept this matchmaking. So that papa can free him Ilham." Please Jihan.

"No need to wait for your papa, Jihan. You can immediately release Ilham from prison. Tomorrow I plan to go to my friend WO to take care of my wedding and Siti. Let's meet in jail."

Jihan's face sparkled "Thank you Brother Jo. Thank you, it's not wrong that Siti chose you." Jihan kissed Jo's hand.

Jihan siti did choose me, but her heart can't be had.
