Zahra stared blankly at her beautiful reflection in front of the mirror. Slowly, Annisa's soft hands pinned a transparent veil that looked perfectly compatible with the wedding dress that Zahra was wearing. Annisa smiled in amazement at the results of her work a few hours ago. Ah, decorating the bride is not as easy as she thinks.
"Done, now Zahra just waiting for the arrival of prince tam-ehem Zahra's future husband calmly here. " Anna's instructions made Zahra cringed her two eyebrows confused. But did not want to dispute his Zahra chose silence.
"Zahra, did you see the sound that was there? " Pointing Annisa to the loudspeaker that has been installed pretty up there.
Zahra nodded in response.
Annisa smiled meaningfully as she stroked the top of Zahra's head that had been covered in a headscarf.
"You can listen to your future husband justify you from here, this bridal chamber. "
Zahra blinked funny, he did not know if the concept of marriage they use is very strange. He thought if after the prospective bride came he would go down to the bottom floor where the agreement took place, but it turned out he was wrong.
"Did Zahra not come down?" Ask Zahra plain.
Annisa frowned in confusion.
"For what?" Ask Annisa.
Zahra crushes her clothes timidly or nervously to be more precise.
"Company Zahra's future husband." Annisa hesitated.
Ah, Annisa understands. It turns out that Zahra still does not know the concept of marriage. Perhaps it is in Zahra that he will carry out his marriage with a non-Islamic concept or like the habits of Indonesians who if married directly sit together to do together.
Carefully he reached for Zahra's fidgety clutched hands, he held them warmly. Ah, how cold is Zahra's hand.
"Zahra, our family doesn't do such a concept of marriage. The concept of marriage embraced by our family is Islamic in kaffah, separated before halal. " Obviously Annisa who still hasn't made Zahra understand, the expression of her eyes that speak.
"Look, in this concept the play is the groom and bride separated. The bride will wait for the arrival of her husband who is certainly halal to come pick her up in the bridal room. As Zahra does now, Zahra just waits and hears Zahra's future husband banish Zahra from this room. He will come after the ijab is done, does Zahra understand?" Obviously Annisa made Zahra unconsciously nod her head understand, ah how sorry Zahra had forgotten her own marriage, how could she be this evil?
"Zahra understands, but will Zahra wait here alone?"
Annisa shook her head softly in response, she further tightened her hand against Zahra.
"Sure it doesn't happen, you'll be waiting here with umi, me, Dira, and Fira. " Anna answered softly.
Zahra opened her eyes uncertain, but inevitably her lips asked as well.
"Fira?" Confused Zahra, the reason he was never close to a girl named Fira. Although the facts reveal that Fira is the younger sister of her future husband, but still why should he also accompany her. Zahra still remembers what the girl said before even though they had forgiven each other in the boarding house but still it felt very awkward and stiff, he said, yes at least that's what Zahra thought for now.
Unlike Dira who although impressed strange in the eyes of Zahra but they are close and can be said that Dira is one of his friends.
Annisa nodded steadily in response making Zahra inevitably sigh tiredly.
Speaking of friends, did his best friend come to see him?
"Em, brother?"
"Yes, Zahra. What was? Are you thirsty? "
Zahra shook her head slowly because she was not thirsty even though she had been locked up in this place for hours, ah her room more precisely.
"Did all of Zahra's friends come to Zahra's wedding? " Task Zahra to the point.
Zahra misses them so much. It's been two days that her friends have never come to visit her.
Again Annisa smiled warmly in response.
"Of course Zahra, they must have come today. " Anisa answered sure to make Zahra breathe a sigh of relief.
The two of them were silent again, busy with their own thoughts.
At this time Zahra's mind is to start everything with a new figure, although it looks not easy but Zahra will still do it. It was enough, true that Razi told her that whoever her husband was she had to accept him and learn to love him. Because no matter how everything happens because of course it has been outlined by Allah swt, the most romantic.
Yes, even though they are both hurt here but this is the way, they cannot avoid.
Tok~
Tok~
Tok~
Suddenly the sound of knocking on the door interrupted their daydreaming activities. After getting permission to enter the master knocker door also opened the door slowly so that it showed the beautiful face of Dira who was wrapped in a simple but elegant look. Not to forget also behind her there is Marwah with her sparkling eyes. Ah, it's a pity this expression.
"Sir Zahra! Marwah. " Shouted Marwah riotously ready to embrace Zahra but before that happened Dira had already acted by restraining the brutal body of Marwah. Seeing that Zahra just shook her head slowly while stretching her arms wide, allowing them to hug Zahra.
Getting the code, Dira also released Marwah's body and said, saying,
"Don't mess around, just slow down. " Dira's sweat made the immeasurable Marwah innocently nod her head sparkling.
The two of them hugged Zahra carefully as they did not want to damage the wedding dress that Zahra was wearing.
"Masyaa Allah, Zahra's mother is a very beautiful tea today. Marwah aja lost beautiful same mbak Zahra. " Celoteh Marwah made Zahra and the others inevitably laugh.
Zahra wiped away her tears that were about to fall flowing, she was very satisfied laughing today. Marwah's innocence greatly comforted her heartbreak.
"thank you. " Sincere Zahra said. He did not dodge if Marwah's innocence which can be said to have entered the acute phase has been meritorious comforting him.
Marwah smiled broadly as she nodded her head, sitting herself beside Zahra. Then enthusiastically hugged Zahra's possessive arm.
"Today is an amazing day, mbak Zahra looks very beautiful and ustad Razi also looks very handsome with a wedding dress, wow. "
Deg
Instantly all was silent, the atmosphere became awkward, while Zahra? It seems like she wants to cry at the moment. Oh, come on Zahra forgot something really important. Well, he forgot that even Razi was getting married today.
Zahra's face turned mellow, instantly making those there panic-stricken.
"Sir Zahra knows not if ust-"
"Zahra, are you thirsty?" Cut Dira fast. This time and for the umpteenth time he condemned how innocent Marwah was. If only Dira had not forgotten this important thing he might have preferred not to take Marwah to Zahra's room. His sloppy he.
"No, I'm not thirsty yet. " Answer Zahra honestly. He will forget all the things that smell of food or drink at a time like this. Her thoughts leaned more into her mood. Are you like this when you're heartbroken?
"Oh, so. " The response of Dira kalem.
"Mr-bak"
"Marwah please bring Zahra some drinking water downstairs!" Dira's voice forced, even he gave his sharp gaze to Marwah.
Marwah looked confusedly at Dira, very visible if he wanted to refute.
"Mak Zahra is not thirsty, Dir. " Remember plain Marwah.
Dira clucked impatiently.
"Me! I'm thirsty, so can you get me some drinking water and Zahra too. Maybe for now Zahra will not be thirsty but in the future we do not know, right?. So let's get Zahra some drinking water just in case. " Press Dira ya even with clear doubt Marwah nodded in agreement while saying goodbye from the room. After Marwah's departure Dira was able to breathe with relief, he had even promised himself not to re-engage Marwah in anything else.
"Don't be like that again, Dir! You know very well that Marwah is not an innocent girl. " Tegur Zahra made Dira inevitably smile proudly. Ah, her Zahra is now able to think of adulthood as it turns out, a very remarkable change for her.
"Well, sure. You don't have to worry. " His reply was to tighten his embrace in Zahra's arms. Zahra was actually uncomfortable, but because Dira was no one else to him then he decided to let Dira behave like this.
"Zahra, after marrying her later I beg you to live happily. You two have crossed too many obstacles, so please live well with him." Pinta Dira pleads. Zahra furrowed her brows in confusion, Dira was acting strange again and honestly this made Zahra inevitably continue to think about her. This makes her distracted.
"Sir-"
"Don't ask, because I won't answer. You know the answer will come to you without you looking. " Cut Dira managed to make Zahra silenced, how could he not ask if every speech that Dira said actually increased the level of curiosity.
And also whether the answer he was looking for would come to him himself, how?
Is that true?
If true, what if the answer he expected did not match what he got, right?
***
The young man still could not believe what was happening today, he stared at the house he was in now turned into a very beautiful place. Filled with beautiful decorations and looks graceful. And in front of her now, stood a middle-aged man who was staring at her happily. From the glare of his eyes that began to tear up in tears, there was a look of relief depicted there. He is happy because leave-ah, more precisely who will keep his beloved daughter is someone right. Someone he believed could escort and guide his daughter down a better path and he was so relieved of it all.
"Pig. " Call the young man while hugging the middle-aged man with a deep embrace will highlight the longing.
"Abi taught you to be a tough guy, not a weak guy. " The middle-aged man, called Abi, learned that the young man he had raised lovingly had grown into a strong and resolute adult man was now crying in his arms.
The young man could only smile wryly while wiping away the trace of tears on his handsome face. Once again he smiled, smiling happily until his dimples appeared shy.
"Live happy. " Pinta abi made the young man smile meaningfully while nodding vigorously.
Abi patted the young man's shoulder slowly as he led him inside, towards the place that would be the gate to justify his little daughter whom he had dreamed of for a long time.
"Can we start now? " The voice of the middle-aged man to all the invitations and relatives, especially to a young man who was sitting cross-legged bravely before the elders and elders.
Nodding everyone and the young man made the elders nod in agreement and start the show. Open the barrier gate slowly and begin to bind someone who will accompany the young man towards his ridho.
Slowly the young man took a breath as he kept remembering the word of God.
*يٰۤـاَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوْا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِيْ خَلَقَكُمْ مِّنْ نَّفْسٍ وَّاحِدَةٍ وَّخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَبَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِيْرًا وَّنِسَآءً ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ الَّذِيْ تَسَآءَلُوْنَ بِهٖ وَالْاَرْحَامَ ۗ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيْبًا
"Oh man! Fear your Lord who created you from one self (Adam), and (God) created his spouse (Eve) from his (self); and from both of them God bred many men and women. Be afraid of Allah for whom you ask each other and (maintain) family relations. Verily Allah is ever watchful and watchful over you."
(QS. An-Nisa' 4: Verse 1*)
The word continues to make the young man's heart warm, he is sure as sure if his little daughter who will be part of his life is the ribs that God destiny for her. He did not even forget how hard the struggle and obstacles he had gone through to get to this point. He also did not forget even some time ago he preferred to give up fighting for his little daughter, but it turns out the power of God is the best scenario for him. How man runs or lifts his hand upon all things, God will never remain silent. If man is tired, then with the kindness of God and the compassion of God the Most Romantic will continue. And yes, the young man was very grateful for God's kindness and compassion for everything. Especially for today.

Zahra P's. O. V
Once again I sighed for the umpteenth time, I continued to do it to muffle the sound of my heartbeat that I still did not want to control. Don't ask me how I feel right now, it's certainly not funny. All of them mixed into one.
There is fear, nervousness, anxiety and sadness. Everything's churning here, right on my chest. It tastes?
It's not comfortable if you want to know.
To divert my mind, I prefer to look at my room that has been decorated with various flowers that spread various fragrances so that it makes my room very fragrant.
Ah, well, here's the wedding flower.
Beautiful, because it consists of various flowers that are famous for their beauty.
Then, my eyes were on a middle-aged woman who gave birth to and raised me in this world. Yes, umi. Beautiful and kind woman who had grasped my hand that felt like ice cubes so cold, do not forget that I was a little trembling, well only a little.
From the beginning he entered, Umi always whispered me soothing words. And I am very grateful for the kindness of Umi who has given a soothing word.
Then, to my left also sat a girl whose age was not much different from mine. Yeah, you guys are right. She's Annisa, the only me in the world. She was the same as Umi, always giving me the word tranquilizer. Well, they're the same. Equally gentle and kind. I am so grateful to be able to come and live among them, even though it was because of my own play I misunderstood all the affection they were trying to give and it was only a sincere apology that I could give them while trying to improve their attitude and nature I want to be someone better.
Oh, ja. About Annisa, I asked her a few days ago.
I asked him why I was married earlier than he was my older brother or more obviously he was older than me. Because honestly I was a little wonder why I was the first to marry than him.
And calmly he replied that my soul mate came faster than his soul mate. And yes, he also said that of course everything that happened has been outlined by the most romantic, Allah swt.
And after that I didn't ask again.
We continue, next to Annisa also sits a beautiful girl who can be sure that she and I are the same age. The girl with her whole strangeness who else if not Dira. Sure, you know him. If Marwah is the queen of innocence of the acute level, then Dira is the queen with all her oddities. He never spoke, he just looked at me with a strange smile. To be honest I was a little horrified by her smile, surely she thought nothing of me. Ah, annoying.
And lastly, Fira. As with Dira, Fira never spoke. Me and him were more awkward and reluctant. I don't know, it's just that his words still stick in my heart. I have no grudge, seriously. The same is the case with wounds, if healed will definitely leave scars. And that's what happened in my heart.
Suddenly the recitation of the Qur'an by my future husband was about to begin. Make no mistake, the dowry I asked for was a letter from Ar-Rahman. Besides because I like it too because this letter reminds me that how much God loves his servant and this letter seems to tell us that we must be grateful for all the blessings that God has given us.
And what also made me like this letter was Razi's brother. One day I woke up from my sleep, in the middle of the night I heard Razi teaching as if he was in front of my room. At first I did not know what letter he read until when I returned to study with Dira and Marwah I heard Dira read the letter of Ar-Rahman with great appreciation, so from there I learned that the letter that Razi had read that night was Ar-Rahman.
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
"By the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Merciful."
Deg
Suddenly my focus was distracted. These sounds?
I seem to know her, not this voice...
اَلرَّحْمٰنُ
"(God) The Most Merciful,"
Razi?
Razi?
Did ya?
But isn't my future husband Alif, then how can my dowry recite be Razi? Is this also the dowry that Nabila asked Razi?
How can they get married here?
Does Razi want to show off his togetherness and his happiness with Nabila to me?
If so, then Razi is a truly evil man.
عَلَّمَ الْقُرْاٰنَ
"That has taught the Qur'an."
خَلَقَ الْاِنْسَانَ
"He created man,"

"And the crusted grain and the fragrant flowers smell."
فَبِاَيِّ اٰلَآ ءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبٰنِ
"Who is the favor of your Lord that you deny?"
Suddenly the warm hand sweep of umi on my cheek made me turn to her, umi smiled warmly at me not even umi, but they were all no exception Fira.
خَلَقَ الْاِنْسَانَ مِنْ صَلْصَالٍ كَالْفَخَّارِ
"He created man from dry soil like pottery,"
وَخَلَقَ الْجَآ نَّ مِنْ مَّارِجٍ مِّنْ نَّارٍ
"And He created the jinn from a smokeless flame."
فَبِاَيِّ اٰلَآ ءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبٰنِ
"Who is the favor of your Lord that you deny?"
To be honest, hearing Razi teach like this made me overflow my expectations a little. I can't deny that I feel that the letter Ar-Rahman is reading right now is for me.
Can I hope even if I know it's impossible?
رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقَيْنِ وَ رَبُّ الْمَغْرِبَيْنِ

تَبٰـرَكَ اسْمُ رَبِّكَ ذِى الْجَـلٰلِ وَالْاِكْرَامِ
"Holy is the name of your Lord the Owner of Glory and Glory."
سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ،لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْك
⁇ (according to the hadith of the Prophet)
His prayer gently closed his Koran reading. Suddenly the atmosphere in my room changed a little and not as stiff as a while ago, I looked at those who were also staring at me with a smile that I thought was an expression of happiness.
Perhaps, they were happy with Razi's choice. If you think that girl is very lucky to get Razi, yes she is a lucky girl.
I felt my chest throbbing pain, it was common indeed. Lately it has been routine. That feeling of emptiness and pain was common, very ordinary.
Ah, even on a happy day like this I am still sad, serving how powerful this heart is, how sad is it not?

After ending my Qur'an with the prayer that the apostle prayed, I took a breath of relief at least one key I had obtained. Yes, a very important key. You know?, my little princess asked for the dowry of an Ar-Rahman letter, I was so amazed and amazed by her. I thought she was going to ask for something that girls out there used to ask for but it turned out I was wrong, my little daughter was different wasn't she?
After taking enough breaths I gave a nod to Abi, yes I was ready to accept and bring the princess back into my arms.
Abi stuck out his hand which I immediately greeted with a feeling that I could not draw.
I stared at the sharp eyes of abi who seemed to bind me to return his gaze. After shaking hands with each other, it was clear that Abi took a breath before saying the sacred words.
"Ananda Muhammad Affianka Razi BIN Muhammad Affianka Fahriandi I married and I marry you to Zahra Affianisha bint Muhammad Affiarul Hadi with... "

Zahra occasionally breathed in boredom. He was tired of staying silent here. He wanted to see Razi actually because he was still curious about the marriage process of lovers not until it was. He wanted to hear Razi's stern voice when saying kabul ijab even though it was not for him but at least by hearing Razi's voice he could assume that the name mentioned there was his name another girl's name yes even though this is all just Zahra's true selfish thinking.
Remembering her again Zahra smiled wryly, lying if Zahra was not tormented today. He even planned to cry in the bathroom, which is embarrassing, right?
"Umi, why doesn't Razi do ij-"
"WELL! " The screams of the invitees and guests managed to make Zahra speechless.
His eyes began to tear up in disappointment, even with his evil Razi doing this to him. Razi did not even give her a chance to hear his voice, yes heard that voice for the last time.
Zahra did not even comment on anything seeing everyone around her giving thanks. Zahra wanted to cry but realized where and with whom, she knew enough not to do it.
Even uminya today looks very happy with the ongoing marriage Razi very smoothly, ah Zahra is getting jealous or rather hurt?
Tok~
Tok~
Tok~
The loud sound of knocking on the door instantly interrupted all of them, including Zahra.
In contrast to Zahra who wore an expression of disinterest, those in Zahra's room actually put on a smile full of intent that made Zahra frown not understand.
"Let's stand up, son. " Umi's instructions make Zahra inevitably stand up to follow his uminya.
Dira who had just kept smiling finally moved to open the door.
Slowly, the door that was supposed to be tightly closed now began to move open to display the figure of someone who managed to make Zahra freeze.
Zahra looked at the figure angrily mixed with longing. He was angry because the figure had officially become the property of others but, he also longed for even the very figure that was filling Zahra's heart.
"Re.zi? "
Yes, that figure is Razi. A young man who was standing gallantly looked at Zahra deeply.
"Assalamualaikum warrahmatullahiwa. " Greetings Razi as he slowly entered into Zahra's room. Making Zahra more frozen in place. The group that accompanied Razi just stared amusedly at Razi from outside the room, even Dira and Fira blatantly uttered seductive words, making Razi's handsome face shamed in embarrassment.
"Vaalaikumussalam.. " Bisik Zahra answered Razi's greeting. He still does not believe in someone who is right in front of him.
"Why is my brother here? " Zahra's voice began to sound hoarse, even his tears had flowed smoothly on both cheeks.
Razi smiled warmly.
"Aren't you allowed if your husband comes to pick up his wife?" Temptation Razi increasingly makes Zahra shock mixed confused.
"Isn't.isn't hicks.. " Isaac Zahra could not continue his remarks, Zahra was crumbling her bridal attire restlessly, she wanted to hug Razi actually but she was afraid if Razi refused her.
"Come here, greet your husband with your warm embrace. " Razi's voice while carrying Zahra's vibrating body in his longing embrace. Getting an impromptu hug like that makes Zahra inevitably hug Razi back with a hug that is not less tight. Zahra drowned her veil-covered pretty face behind the chest of Razi's field, crying and shedding her mountainous longing.
Those who were present there saw how happy and happy the two creatures were, they could not avoid if there was a deep love from the look of the eyes they gave.
"Ehem, don't be so cool yourself, there's still an event you have to go through today. " The repulsive Tegur abi made Razi and Zahra let go of their embrace, even they only realized the ridiculing and seductive gazes of the people present there.
Shamefully Razi pulled out a diamond-eyed gold ring pinned on Zahra's pretty finger. Zahra who gets such warm treatment can only smile shyly because she also saw in Raz-eh, precisely Zahra saw her husband's sweet hand also embedded a simple engraved silver ring.
"Zahra, kiss your husband's hand. " Umi's whispers made Zahra nod clumsily.
With trembling she grabbed her husband's right hand and kissed him with deep sincerity.
And timidly also replied by Razi, kissed his forehead affectionately while saying a prayer how happy and grateful he was at this time.
***
The time has shown at 19.13 pm and the wedding ceremony and wedding reception have been completed. Guests and relatives who came slowly died from the event and went home. Similarly, the family or invitation from the boarding school that after the end of the event immediately resigned.
At this time Zahra was sitting pensively staring at the diamond-decorated gold ring embedded in her sweet finger, occasionally she would sing a smile on her pretty face covered with a veil while stroking the ring gently.
If you remember to get to this stage Zahra had to sacrifice many tears that did not really need to be done, he said, however, he was still grateful because this road also led him to this point.
"Son. " Call me gently makes Zahra shift her attention to look at Umi.
"Yes, umi? " Answer Zahra asked in a voice that was no less gentle.
Umi looked at Zahra with a very sincere smile from her beautiful face.
"Are you happy? " Tanya Umi is still with her genuine smile.
Zahra smiled enthusiastically and nodded happily, ah it feels so different.
"Of course Zahra is happy umi, is umi also happy to see Zahra get married? "
Umi brings Zahra's hand into her grasp while giving her a genuine smile.
"Umi's very happy, son. Moreover, your husband is Razi, a young man who we have memorized his attitude and behavior, so we are glad to release you with his, son. " Reply answered umi seriously.
Zahra couldn't help but smile her happiness, this was the happiness she was looking for, this was the happiness she wanted. Seeing the sincere and happy smiles of his loved ones was the happiness he wanted. And yes, Allah has heard his prayer again. Allah had heard the cry and the spoiled voice of Zahra while complaining, and truely, Allah did not sleep. God kept watch over his life, preparing a beautiful scenario for him at the right time. And that time is not the moment, indeed the scenario of the most romantic is very unexpected.
"But, Zahra is still upset with all of you. Especially to Umi, how could you lie to Zahra!. " Rajuk Zahra makes umi laugh.
He gently rubbed Zahra's hand which he held.
"Don't ask Umi about it, but ask your stiff husband." Umi answered while bringing her gaze towards the living room, there the young and old men were engaged in a long chat and not infrequently they would laugh with the chat.
Seeing his uminya staring in that direction, Zahra followed the direction of his attenuation and found Razi-husband was talking lightly with the men.
Zahra stared intently at her husband, admiring how beautiful this one creature of God was. Because it was too cool to admire her husband, without realizing it now the husband also looked at her happily. He smiled handsomely at Zahra and gave a gesture that indicated Zahra should rest immediately.
Seeing her husband's treatment, Zahra inevitably smiled clumsyly because she was caught staring at her husband. Zahra nodded in return but did not budge a bit from her position. She was still cool looking at her husband who returned to chatting lightly with others.
Ein...
"Don't be so weird-minded, you better prepare yourself for your first night. Do not let you give up in the middle of the road and make your husband disappointed.. " Latifa's scales make Zahra's hair stand up.
"W-what? " Shock Zahra with her shy red face. He stared in real annoyance at Latifa the troublemaker and those who stared at Zahra teased.
"Why did you become such an innocent pretentious ass? " Tanya Fia sneered which was immediately greeted with laughter from the others. Ah, it feels great to tease this newlywed.
"Uh, you're so frontal! I don't like it." Rajuk Zahra makes them all the more lured to tease Zahra.
Hearing the wife being teased by her strange friends, Razi just shook his head in amazement at their interaction.
you know, actually from earlier Razi was not able to withstand his heartbeat that beat great, he was nervous even very nervous.
