Shahadat Love Zakia

Chapter 20

Zakia tried to stand up ignoring the pain that had filled her body and also her heart her face turned blue from the powerful slap that hit her smooth cheeks several times, his body had also flushed the lash mark was still imprinted on his white skin

"It's okay Tan, I'm used to feeling it, did Aunt forget? I was just a child that was not expected by Mama. I'm Mama's biological child just like Misya's sister and Leo's but Mama treated me like her stepdaughter why Ma? Why did you treat me differently?" zakia said with a hoarse voice her heart felt tight, wanted to feel like she was crying as hard as possible to vanish all the pain but there was not a single tear she could shed and it was really more stifling for her

"You ask why? That's because you only brought misery into my life from the moment I conceived and bore you in this world to the only suffering you've brought. And look now even today you never please my heart, so proudly you maintain your faith let's see how far you've come"

"Put him into the rice barn behind and no one can enter or feed him without my consent" Leni continued, asking Edi to take Zakia to the back shed and lock him there

While Zakia who had run out of energy was only able to follow without any rejection coming out of his mouth, for a moment he looked towards Misya and also James His second brother who was silent in their place stood like a spectator who could only watch it without any of them helping him

One week has passed. In the midst of the silence of the night and the cold air Zakia prostrated herself in her prayer wearing only a shabby robe and a blanket that covered her hair. Zakia performed his prayer with a mat that was not feasible he worshiped so fervently asking that the creator gave him an ocean of patience in order to be able to pass all the tests assigned to him

"O Allah, I know you gave me a test not to see me give up, but you gave me a test to make me a stronger and more patient Muslim. Remain in my heart, O God, do not make my heart turn really close to you, make me happy even though in the pain of many years" pinta Zakia cried in silence

Elsewhere, Zakia's best friend Rayyan and Umi Yasmin are equally concerned about the state of Zakia. For a week they waited but the waiting did not also give news or a message that said he was fine, he said, repeatedly Umi Yasmin contacted Zakia but the results remained the same making the concern grow

Rayyan who had just finished his evening prayer sat pensively on the prayer mat he seemed to have no interest in moving from his seat his heart was completely filled by Zakia who had not yet told him about his return

"may God protect you wherever you are, Za, and may whoever tries to shake your heart keep your choice. O God, you know who this heart is anchored to, so I ask God help me to keep this love without moving me away from You. I believe that you are the best creator of my destiny, if you do so, I will make it easy for God, if not please help me to abolish this Love without remaining so that I can continue my life without the shadow of someone who is not in destiny to be mine" Pinta Rayyan in his prayer his heart felt better and calmer than before the restlessness was now replaced with resignation, whatever the answer and also instructions from God later he will receive it with a breastplate

Zakia looked up at Edi who doused her with water to make all her clothes wet, she turned to look at her mother with a pity not the slightest bit of pity reserved for her? Why is a mother so heartless to see her own flesh and blood being tormented?.

"How come you're still loyal to your choice, HM? You think by looking at me so my heart will melt? don't dream! Eat, eat this" said Leni put food forcibly into the mouth of Zakia but Zakia violently refused him because he was fasting and again the food was not halal for him to consume

Without excuse, Zakia's tears just escaped where did the mother's conscience that was so dear to her? Sick, his heart really hurt is there still a glimmer of affection that is intended for him?.

"God, take me I think I can no longer, if yesterday I was able to survive but this time I can no longer God I give up, I am tired. Take me O God I want to meet Dad, I really want to hug him" said Zakia holding her chest tight and crying together

Zakia sat down limply, feeling her whole body hot with a shaky step she walked towards the long-disused bathroom that was inside the warehouse where she was in parentheses. Zakia intended to take ablution to immediately perform his prayer he did not know at what time it was, but seeing the sun that had not shown its form made Zakia guess that it was possible that the Maghrib prayer time would arriving soon

Zakia felt very hungry his stomach felt the pain of Zakia breaking open only with the water he had collected through the former Aqua. Tears wet his cheeks again Zakia cried in silence withstanding her pain alone even now her body has completely changed her face pale and her body is getting thinner making Zakia more concerned

"For the sake of Zakia, you must not be weak, you must be strong, for there will be no one to help or to pity you" lirih Zakia leaned her body to look around her increasingly dark batrai hp owned even has run out tonight Zakia sleep without any light that illuminates her night
