SHAUQ

Rejected

“A little more, Qalbi. Tip higher,” the order of Sham which was directly obeyed by his friend. “Higher again.... a little more...Can,” said Syam when he finally can hold the wall owned by Uqzy which serves as a window of the little girl's room.

For a moment, silence approached the two of them. Quite a while, it could even be said that a few minutes had passed, leaving Qalbi wondering.

“What happened to Syam? Why do you just keep quiet? What are you looking at?”

“Masyallah Qalbi, even in the lid of the eyelids, her beautiful face does not fade at all,” praise Syam to the girl who looks in front of her eyes is lying so gracefully. “Astagfirullah,” his screech when he realized there was fresh blood on the girl's hand flowing gently even though there was little to no comparison to her current body because of her father's actions.

Because the screech was so tight, someone from behind the door of the room immediately entered to check on something that happened. Yes, there was a very pale Uqzy Mother who was worried about her son who was still lying unconscious in bed.

“Are you a young man named, Syam?” ask gently mother Uqzy by approaching the window. Unable to say, Syam just nodded slowly. “Can you get out of here, now? By looking at your face, this hatred is burning back.”

“For a moment, allow to look at the most beautiful moon,” while pointing at the girl who is still lying neatly.

“Didn't you see? My beloved daughter is like this because of your father!” bentak mother Uqzy. “I don't hate you, son. But, your face makes me remember someone who hurt my daughter so clearly,” she continued in a soft back tone. “So, I hope you understand and come back soon.”

I risked myself to meet you

Why is everyone telling me to stop?

You guys, people, don't understand!

My love is my soul and body

Hearing the verse flow beautifully from the little young man's mouth, Uqzy's mother's heart began to be moved to reach the tiny lips full of blood.

“How can the lips that play this beautiful verse get so many wounds?” lirih Uqzy's mother stroked the lips of the young man in front of her.

“My wife,” call someone while opening the door of Uqzy's room. Instantly surprised Mother Uqzy found her husband who suddenly came to her son's room. Quickly, Uqzy's mother turned her back to Sham. Trying to hide the little boy.

“Go son, this is a request from a mother of the girl you love so much.”

Hearing that speech would have made Sham helpless. He motioned to Qalbi to lower him without a sound. At every step of his journey home, Syam just looked down and mute. Sham's behavior made Qalbi worried, he wanted to ask, but he felt that his friend was rejected because he accidentally heard a snatch from Uqzy's mother. Unknowingly, the young man now began to shed his tears.

“Sick," flowed.

“Which part?” qalbi asked while checking every wound of Sham one by one on his body. Starting from the eyes, temples, cheeks, chin, hands and even to the feet.

“Disini.” Holding chest.

“What do you mean? Is there a wound in your chest?” qalbi asked in case something bad happened to her best friend.

“Here, what a pain, it was like being torn apart by a tiger's scratch. Scratched by a deadly sharp thorn,” was clearly Sham before he finally fell unconscious.
