The day had changed in the afternoon, the cold air was getting stifling.
The city of Thaif, unlike other Saudi cities, is still cold and cool even in summer.
As in this afternoon, the rain began to pour down on the earth, presenting a very romantic atmosphere especially for two lovebirds who are drunk with love.
"Darling, I'll take you somewhere, get ready!" Sultan's Order to Maymunah.
Without saying much, Maymunah followed Sultan's steps towards his car.
Wearing a veil and Abaya, Maymunah walked with the Sultan.
The Sultan drove his car through the streets of the city of Thaif which is now covered in fog.
The Sultan took Maymunah to a very beautiful and charming place.
The Saudis call it Jabal khodro or green mountain.
"Allah, subhanallah. I did not expect in your country there is a place as beautiful as this" said Maymunah after he got off the Sultan's car.
"Yes, this city of Thaif is a Saudi city, do you want to know the story?" Sultan asked while sitting in the middle of the green grass.
"Of course, let's tell me!" Maymunah seemed enthusiastic to hear the Sultan's story.
He sat down next to the Sultan.
"Konon said this Thaif is a village that comes from Falestina" Sultan began his story.
Maymunah seemed to not understand what the Sultan said, because at will the Saudis and Palestinians were very far away, how could Thaif come from Palestine.
The Sultan laughed when he saw his wife dumbstruck.
"Hahaha ..You can't believe it, right?"
"Well, you don't make it up. Thaif's time is from Palestine, isn't it far enough?"
"Nothing is impossible for God. According to legend, this all happened because of the prayer of Prophet Ibrahim when he left his second wife, Sayyidah Hajar, with his son, Prophet Ismail in Mecca, which was still in the form of desert sand and rocks"
Sultan. Maymunah mangosteen listening to the story of her husband.
"You mean the prayer of Prophet Abraham which is enshrined by Allah in the Qur'an Surah Ibrohim verse 37 if not wrong?" Ask.
"It is true, it is said that God sent the Angel Gabriel to remove part of the earth from Palestine and place it on the outskirts of Makkah, namely Thaif"
"Do you have a prescription?" Maymunah asked, starting to be critical. Maymunah does not want to mention in terms of religion.
"Hehehe I just heard from my parents' story. But that's not a problem, it's not about the law of haram, or the law of a problem. Whether or not the story is true will have no effect on religion. "
" You're right hehe..Oh yeah, I want the same ema and my sister, can't I?"
The Sultan nodded in agreement to Maymunah's request.
There was a sense that he could not translate when he saw his wife was so happy.
It was so soothing to see Maymunah's laughter.
"O Allah, let the servant keep him happy like that. The happiness is very simple, He did not ask for diamonds and luxury cars, He was very happy just by witnessing the beauty of this creation of God" muttered Sultan in his heart.
Maymunah just stopped her vc when the rain drops again and this time it looks increasingly heavy.
"Honey, let's go to the car, you'll get sick" Sultan said as he took off his jacket and patted his wife.
Maymunah reflexively wrapped her hands around her husband's waist.
All the way home, Maymunah was unceasingly looking at her husband. A clear thread dripped from his cheek saw the sincerity of the Sultan whom he had thought only wanted his body.
"Hmm how if the Indonesian vegetable sop, very suitable with the cold weather at this time." Maymunah answered enthusiastically.
"Ok, we stopped by the minimarket first to buy the ingredients"
A short time later, Sultan parked his car at the minimarket and bought all the materials they needed.
"Darling, you really want to go to your mother's house as a maid, frankly I don't want to see you at the tell and.ahh anyway I can't afford"
Said Sultan while sitting next to his wife who was cutting vegetables.
"Yes, I'm ready In sha Allah." Maymunah answered without looking at her husband.
"Ok, then tomorrow I'll go to my mom's house, I saw you need someone to cook"
" Ok, in sha Allah I will work my best"
"Yes, now I want to test you. I want to taste your cooking."
The sultan immediately opened the boiling pot on the stove and took some soup and ate it voraciously.
After they finished eating and were done, Maymunah immediately entered her room.
Because of his extreme sleepiness, he fell asleep without locking the door.
"Hmm it seems like she's already asleep, ah this is my chance to be able to sleep next to her. Yes, even though I can't touch his body, at least I can sleep nearby" muttered Sultan as he walked into his room.
With great heart, He laid his body beside his beloved wife.
Gently, He pulled Maymunah in his arms and finally fell asleep while hugging her.
The night crept further, Fajar sodiq began to show his light, the dawn adhan began to reverberate in every mosque.
Maymunah began to feel uncomfortable and stuffy because it was in the Sultan's arms. Slowly he opened his eyes and ..
"aww..Sultans..Awake You!" Hardened her with a loud voice when she realized her husband was sleeping beside her.
Sultan woke up and sat down while looking at Maymunah like a beard fire.
"Why sleep here? did you forget our deal?" Ask Maymunah Sewot.
The sultan chuckled.
"Hehe is not, baby. The agreement is only not to have sex.not not to sleep together" replied the Sultan.
"Yes, but I'm still worried"
" I don't know what darling. Besides, later we will be separated, you will sleep in the place of mama, and I will sleep here" said the Sultan, this time with a sad mimic, making Maymunah moody and guilty.
"Yes, now that you pray there, I'll make you breakfast, you want to work in the morning right?"
"Yes, I have to work today. I'll take you to my mom's house later this afternoon"
The Sultan rushed up and was about to leave the room, but was arrested by Maymunah.
She hugged her husband from behind and cried because she felt guilty for scolding the Sultan just because he slept next to her.
"Sultan, I'm sorry. I don't want to do my duty as a wife, I'm just afraid we'll have children before we register our marriage"
The Sultan let go of his wife's embrace.
He took Maymunah's hand and held it.
"Yes, I understand. I'm not mad. Maybe this is a reply from Allah, I used to be so easy to get something illegal, while when I had something halal, I had to fight first to be able to hold it" He said as he held his wife's cheek and stroked her.
"Of course, that's the difference between ordinary stones and diamonds. To get ordinary stones, we only need to pick them up on the streets, but to get diamonds, we must have money first and must carry out transactions first and then get it"
