Seikhlas Love Afifa 2

Be honest...

HAPPY READING'S...⚘⚘⚘

The night before going to bed, Afifa accompanied Nadia Talita who was about to sleep in her room. Nadia asked Afifa's permission to tell the bedtime story her mother used to tell her childhood, the story of the ape boy who did not obey her mother's proverb, and finally she was wretched. Nadia was so flexible to tell the story, Talita was very fond of every word uttered Nadia, Afifa did not expect Nadia was very good at telling stories, until finally Talita was asleep in the cradle of her dreams.

Afifa's mother and father-in-law were sitting quietly chatting in the family room while watching a television show with Fauzi.

After Talita fell asleep, Nadia began to talk and asked Afifa a lot.

"An.", call him.

"Yes?", replied Afifa as she spread out a blanket to cover Talita's body.

"Nadia can ask?", said Nadia again, her tone sounded serious while bowing her head.

Afifa stopped her movements, then turned her head towards Nadia, although her face was down, but Afifa could clearly see the change from the radiant look on Nadia's face.

Afifa sat down next to Nadia again, "What do you want to ask?", asked Afifa with a smile, her right hand rubbed Nadia's back. Seeing from Nadia's expression, Afifa could already understand the problem Nadia wanted to ask, certainly not far from the problem of young people, but Afifa did not want to tease her first.

"Anti...still remember Mas Ari?", asked Nadia.

"Mas Ari?", asked Afifa not yet understood.

"That's...The young man who was with his mother Talita, who helped Anti when she wanted to give birth first" explained Nadia.

"Ooo...Brother Farid", Afifa replied.

"Yes, Brother Ahmad Farid Alghifari, I used to call him Mas Ari", Nadia explained again.

"Hmmmm...why?", asked Afifa.

"Anti know him already?".

Afifa thought for a moment, "Mmmm".alah", she replied shortly.

"When?", asked Nadia again.

"Sejaaaak.us SMU".

"One class?"

"No, he is 2 years above Anti, we are only one school and one boarding school" Afifa replied with a relaxed expression as possible.

"Ooooo...", Nadia nodded, "So...you never close?", asked Nadia again, immediately making Afifa aghast, and correcting her sitting position.

"Oh.mmm...Anti...", Afifa paused for a moment, she was confused as to what, if she was honest with her relationship with Farid back then, she was afraid of making Nadia uncomfortable with him, she said, but he also did not want to lie by not admitting it, "had it been.don't think about Anti", said Afifa, with a forced smile of course, "better now tell me about yourself, Anti-denger, you have known your Mas Ari since in semarang?", Afifa switched the conversation, so that Nadia did not ask him much about Farid, lest he know, if there was ever a bond between them.

Nadia bowed and began to blush, then hesitantly raised her face and looked at Afifa, but her face was immediately serious as her eyeballs met Afifa's eyes, "But I'm not sure Anti", back down and fold his face.

"Why?", asked Afifa.

"So like this.", Nadia took a deep breath, "Not long after Anti gave birth, he apologized for saying inappropriate words to Nadia during his time in Semarang, which led to Nadia moving back to Jakarta, and we never met again after that.", Nadia paused for a moment. "It was only after our meeting in the campus at that time, Mas Ari often telphon Nadia, just asking news or campus material, nothing more".

"What did he say?", asked Afifa curiously.

Nadia was silent, her memory revolved back to that time, an event that would never disappear from her memory, "Mmmm.forget it Anti, which surely her speech was not completely wrong, I did not deserve her", he said", Nadia down.

"Now what?", asked Afifa in surprise.

"Yes, because our behavior and lifestyle are inversely proportional to Anti" explained Nadia, then she again bowed and said. "I heard from his friends.., Mas Ari has had a lover whom he loved very much since his High School days".

"Deg..", Afifa again gasped at Nadia's words, but she tried to control her nervousness.

Both of them were silent, dissolving in their minds. Afifa, who realized that, did not want the conversation to continue in silence, began to talk.

Nadia was silent and still bowed, but of course Afifa could understand Nadia's answer with silence.

"If you really love her, why don't you tell her again now? it seems like he has already started opening his heart to you".

"Nadia's not sure Anti".

"Why?"

"Nadia was afraid that it would happen again, and Nadia would not be disappointed for the second time".

"Hmmm.so yeah", Afifa again inching closer to Nadia, her right hand rubbed gently on Nadia's back. "You don't worry Nad, Alloh has outlined the soul mate of each creature, if indeed he is a match with you, of course you will be met in a sacred bond of marriage" he said later.

Nadia looked up at Afifa's smiling face as if giving support to her. "Thank you Anti.", he said, smiling and scattering Afifa's embrace.

"Together Nad", replying to Nadia's embrace, "you must also remember!, in every step of our lives, must not be separated from three things, effort, prayer and tawakkal, he said, if you have endeavored and prayed, then trust, and rest assured that Allah will give the best for you, if it turns out that he is not your soul mate, do not be discouraged, and rest assured, maybe Alloh has another plan that turns out to be much better for you" explained Afifa at length while rubbing Nadia's arm in his arms.

Nadia raised her head, she smiled towards Afifa, "Iya Anti, Nadia understands and will always remember everything Anti said".

"Well, now that you're asleep, it's night" Afifa said.

"Nadia sleeps here with Talita".

"Yes, Anti came out first", Afifa got up from her seat.

"Yes" answered Nadia.

Afifa walked towards the door of the room, as she opened the door, there was a serious discussion between her husband and her father and mother-in-law from the living room, Afifa approached the voice. But Afifa's steps stopped right in front of the door when she heard her mother-in-law talking loud enough.

"Yes Alloh..., this is not a trivial matter Zi.., why didn't you say it to us long ago? we're your parents".

"I'm sorry Aji Ma...Pa..., Aji used to be so stupid, Aji didn't know what Aji had to do back then".

"Look now!, what will happen to your next household? talita...Ah...The Zi...Mama doesn't know what to tell Afifa's parents later. Mama Shy Zi.., why did you do that?", there was a little stuffing of Mama while banging on Fauzi's shoulder who was bowed.

"Aji doesn't know that Wulan will return to Aji Ma's life, forgive Aji...".

"You've committed a great sin Zi..., istighfar...!!". snapped Mama.

"Aji tau Ma.and that was also what made Aji and Afifa suffer at the beginning of our marriage", Fauzi began to shed tears.

"You should apologize to your wife!, she has been very patient and sincere with you all this time, and now you ask her to take care of the child" Mama said in her tears.

"Had Ma..don't be too emotional, Fauzi was young at that time, maybe we were wrong because we were too pampering him", Papa chimed.

"But Pa.".", Mama argued.

"Fifa who wants Talita to stay here Ma.", said Afifa who suddenly appeared from behind the door, making the three silent and staring at him.
