After the marriage of Azzalia and Seem, Opik came home with his family by driving a car in Key's sopiri. Along the way, Opik is overshadowed by the beautiful face of Azzalia, the girl who helped her sister and the girl who managed to steal her heart.
Shadow when he asked Azzalia about the article of young marriage, made him think back to the answer Azzalia.
"Engga. Not ready. And clearly, Azza wants to pursue Azza's career first brother. Azza still wanted to finish college, work, and many other positive things that Azza wanted to do, before Azza became the wife of people." Azzalia's voice at that time disturbed his heart. And overtly Azzalia gave an answer that Azzalia rejected her, because she regarded Azzalia as an elder sister, nothing more.
Opik picked up a piece of paper on his study desk, a letter from Azzalia on his refusal. Opik slowly folded it back, and there was no clear water in his eye.
"I can't fault him, and I can't fault Seem either. For all this is God's decree." - Opik.
"Seem, you're really lucky" Opik said as he stared at the photo of Opik and Seem in a frame. Opik already considers Seem as his own sister, many things Seem learned from Opik, especially about the Islamic Seem.
"O Allah, give me sincerity, O Allah. Give me strength, O Allah. I.." said Opik stunned in his cry by prostrating on the floor.
"I resigned, O Allah, whoever my soul mate will be, I resigned" Opik said again with a soft word.
💕💕💕
"Seem!" call Opik when he sees Seem seem to get off his bike.
"Opic?" mummified Seem. Looks like Opik is stepping towards him.
"Where were you, bro? I'm looking for it too." asked Opik with a camera.
"Ehm.gues..." Seem seemed confused to answer him, because Seem knew that Opik also loved Azzalia.
"Abis nganterin Azza to the hospital huh? Stay with him until last night?" tanya Opik while patting Seem's shoulder.
"Huh? Um... you...?" Seem is confused about what to answer, because Opik knows everything, and Seem does not know where Opik knows from.
"We sit there first yuk, I want to talk first." Opik invite while pointing to the gazebo in the area of his mother's restaurant.
"Oh, okay." replied Seem who walked along Opik towards the gazebo.
Arriving at the gazebo, Opik stared fixed Seem who was still down feeling guilty.
"Gue.gue apologized, don't wait until the show is over" Seem said.
"Gapapa Seem's. I understand." replied Opik wisely.
"So, I'm looking for you everywhere, I'm disappointed, you weren't there when I graduated, because the plan after the event, I wanted to take a photo together, you know, also with the Red Rose" Opik said.
Hearing the word red rose, Seem turned his head towards Opik.
"So, I was with the Red Rose, I wanted to treat, but they were still lacking one member, Azza. Nadia said, Azza to the hospital, because her brother had an accident. Then, I tell you, no one knows where you are, but then, there's an LPM boy who put this camera on me, he said, You just left this camera on him, because you're in a hurry to leave. Where you going?" ask Opik.
"Oh.ya thank you Pik." replied Seem while receiving the camera that Opik had proffered to him.
"Where were you Seem?" ask Opik again.
Seem did not budge, he was still confused about what to answer, because he was worried that the answer would make a wound in the heart of his best friend who had been very good to him.
"Nganterin Azza to the hospital huh?" guess Opik, and immediately Seem turned to Opik.
Opik looked bitterly smiling, and patted Seem on the shoulder.
"I know everything Seem. You drove Azza to the hospital, and that's where her sister died. You try to always accompany him until the funeral procession is over. I was also takziyaj with abah and umma. But I don't see you said Nadia, possibly you inside, because you still have to accompany Azzalia" Opik said.
"Sir, I.." Kat Seem did not continue.
Seem bowed, not daring to look at Opik's face. He felt very guilty, as he had fallen in love with the girl his best friend loved as well.
"I'm selfish Seem, every day I always tell the same story about Azzalia, about my feelings to her, without me knowing your heart. I'm not even sensitive, if it turns out that my best friend, also loves him. I'm sorry Seem." Opik said while holding both of Seem's shoulders.
"Ehm, no, Pik, I should be the one apologizing. Because I shouldn't love the girl you love" Seem said, holding back his tears.
"Seem, as I have told you, I got a letter from him, that blatantly, he said, that he only considers me brother. Not more. And I think he has a taste for you Seem" Opik said.
Seem didn't budge.
"If you are a match, please take care of her. Guide her, I'm sure, you can guide her to be a Sholihah woman." Opik said as he patted Seem on the shoulder, then Opik left Seem.
💕💕💕
Opik woke up from his prostration, Opik was also remembered by the conversation His parents with Seem in the middle room, when Opik had just returned from a funeral event with LPM.
"Ehm, look, ma'am, sir. I want to tell you that I'm getting married" Seem said one night. I heard the conversation very clearly.
"Haw? you serious? same who?" ask his father Opik.
"Ehm. Yes sir, I am serious. I'll marry you..." Seem seemed hesitant to mention the girl's name, as Seem glanced towards Opik who was also staring at them.
"My friend sir." replied Seem.
"Well, where did you go. MaasyaaAllah, whereas who passed it Opik, who graduated Opik, and we hope, Opik can get married soon after graduation, it turns out that it is close to your soul mate even Seem. Well thank God, mom and dad will support you, as long as the girl is good" said his mother Opik.
"InshaaAllah she's good ma'am. Incidentally, her family asked me to be her husband who always took care of her, because she already had no parents. Meanwhile, he is currently in a bad state, so for that reason, I also accept it ma'am, sir. Sorry if I was presumptuous, did not ask permission from my father and mother" Seem said.
"No matter Seem, we were happy, even we were disappointed with Opik, until now, he had not told you about his chosen soul mate" said Opik's mother, who was not involved in the incident, which managed to make Opik downcast feel guilty.
"That's Umma, don't take the blame. The soul mate is already a provision of Allah, yes it is possible Opik has not met his soul mate." advice abahnya Opik.
"If you can tell, what's Seem's girl's name?" ask Abah Opik.
"Azzalia sir. Read more, Azzalia Princess Geolam bint Geopian Saputra." replied Seem lowered his head.
At once Opik's heart was very sick, when he got an answer from Seem, what was the name of his future wife, Seem mentioned the girl's name in full along with the name of his parents.
Back Opik sat limp, he wanted to get up, but his legs still felt weak because his heart was not okay.
Tok tok tok tok
The sound of her bedroom door being knocked on, and a beautiful girl in a wide headscarf appeared approaching her with her own face.
"Kang, that's sincere. Mate, death, and fortune, they are God's provisions. We can't change it." nasehaat Nadia to Opik while patting Opik's shoulder.
Opik did not answer, instead his tears continued to flow but soon he removed.
"Honestly, I'm hurt too. I'm heartbroken too. Because actually, I have fallen in love with Seem, since the first time we met" said Nadia who made Opik was wide in disbelief.
"You-you...?" ask the unfolding Opik.
"Yes kang, I love him. But, since Seem is married to my own best friend, I try to stay calm kang, I have to be tough. I am sure God has provided the best soul mate for us" said Nadia.
Opik nodded his head in agreement with Nadia's opinion. They embrace and strengthen each other.
