Tasbih Love Arumi

Chapters. 21 Happy news

Arif came home from school at exactly two in the afternoon, he entered the house and did not find the wife who usually always waited for him in the living room. He rushed to the room to see if Aisyah was there. However, the result is nil. The man was getting more agitated and worried, he called his wife's name with a slight shout.

"Dear of it! Where are you, Aisyah?" Arif reached the backyard and he saw Aisyah who was sitting under a mango tree.

He smiled when he saw Aisyah was relaxing in the backyard.

"Aisha," called Arif gently as he approached his wife.

Instantly Aisyah turned her head, she smiled sweetly and stood up from her seat.

"Mas, are you home? Sorry I didn't hear your car. Maybe because I was too engrossed in listening to the chanting of the holy verse of the Qur'an," he said showing a cell phone.

Arif smiled, he embraced Aisyah and invited her to sit down.

"Sit down, I have good news for you."

Aisyah was immediately curious, she was squeaking and smiling sweetly. "Say, I can't wait to hear it."

Arif took out something, he looked at Aisyah's face that was already holding the paper.

"You can read it, but I beg you not to be angry first." pinta Arif said.

A great sense of wonder made Aisyah immediately open the paper, and she smiled when she knew the contents of the paper. How not, Arif received teaching at one of the largest universities in the city B. The campus is very elite and of course Arif's salary will double if he goes to be a lecturer at that campus.

"Mas, kau—" Aisyah went straight into Arif's arms because of her unspoken happiness.

"Alhamdulillah, Aisha. It's all thanks to your prayers, too. I've been waiting for this letter of acceptance for a long time, and at the end of the day it's come."

"I'm really happy, Mom. Thank goodness you finally got to teach there." Aisyah was silent for a moment, then she straightened her body again making Arif surprised.

"Mas, but there's something I'd like to say."

"What's wrong?"

"Aisha, what is it? Don't make me any more curious."

"Already, Mas. Just close your eyes and I'll tell you what this is, "Aisyah helped Arif close his eyes.

"On the count of three, you can open your eyes." Aisyah started counting and when she almost got to the count of three, she deliberately stopped her speech.

"Aisha, why stop? Come on, I can't wait to hear what you want to tell me."

"Three!"

Arif quickly opened his eyes, and he frowned when Aisyah only showed him a device that was about one finger. He certainly knows the tool because today it is sophisticated.

"Aisyah, isn't this—?" arif's words hang.

"Yes, Mom! I'm pregnant." said Aisyah happily with a twinkle aura.

Arif is not able to say anything anymore, the point is he is very grateful and feels today is a happy day for him. She got good news two at once, namely accepted to teach on campus and also Aisyah's pregnancy.

"It turns out that during this one week I had changes such as vomiting, and a dizzy head, it was all because I was pregnant, Mas. Yes, at first I was hesitant but I was desperate to check with the Doctor. And the result is positive, soon we will both be parents" said Aisyah without reducing her happy smile.

Arif hugged Aisha's body. ''Alhamdulillah, Asiyah. May our home life improve. Although we originally only married because of arranged marriage, but now it is not valid and in fact I can sincerely love you. I wish we could be together until Till Jannah,"

"Amen." Aisyah hugged Arif's body no less tightly.

They both dissolve into the happiness that today waters their little family.
