The Bond of Our Love

CHAPTER 132-Aqiqah

Not yet?" Zahra's murmur as she got out of the car with her eyes covered in black cloth made her whole vision darken.

"Prophe dong darling. Do not grumble mutely" Rahul holds and leads his wife to walk according to his direction.

"But when did my eyes close like this?" Zahra grew impatient because she had to walk around fumbling like a blind man.

"Yes patient Belle. It also wants to be opened" Finally Rahul opened the cloth that had covered his wife's eyes. And....

"SURPRISE!"

Zahra was stunned to see the sight before her. A large, majestic and towering building that seemed to be a hospital stood firmly in front of him.

Zahra looked at the building in amazement. In front of it there is a fountain and a mini pond, around which is filled with a circle of ornamental grass and a statue of grass on the left right. So that makes the building yard look more beautiful and amazing.

There were also some well-dressed men and women standing in front of the building. It seems they are all Rahul's employees. It was seen from the way they welcomed the arrival of the couple with a friendly smile, polite and respectful towards Rahul and Zahra.

Zahra read the writing on the building.

*AZZAHRA ALFATHUNNISA HOSPITAL*

"Satya, what is this place? How is it like a hospital? Why did you bring me here and that.... How is my full name? What the hell does this mean?" Zahra read the writing in confusion. He didn't understand why his name was there.

"This is the newest hospital of the Dirgantara group. And I purposely built this hospital for you, and on your behalf" Rahul smiled gently.

"Are you serious? But.... What's for?"

Rahul embraces Zahra and caresses her face. "You remember, when we visited Tajmahal during the honeymoon in India first?" Rahul's question was answered with a nod of Zahra's head.

"I felt touched by the love of king Shah Jahan to his wife, queen Mumtaz Mahal. How he loved his wife so much even though the queen was gone. Even to remember his late wife, the king to build a monument tajmahal whose name is taken from the name of his wife.

And when I decided to build this hospital, I didn't know if you'd come back to me or not. Because I still don't know who you really are at that time. So I thought, I could make this hospital a monument to your memory. My queen. Because I remember the first time I knew you in the hospital"

Rahul revealed his love for his wife. Making Zahra amazed and moved to hear it. She feels like the luckiest woman in the world. Having a husband like Rahul who loved him so much with sincerity and greatness.

Even to build a hospital this grand for him?! Somehow she painted her happiness and gratitude, having been given a dream husband like this!

"So because of that, you gave my name to this place?"

Rahul nodded. "Yes that's it. And.... I made the rules for this hospital, too. That people who cannot afford it will be given free treatment whatever the disease. And I'll also hire the best doctors and nurses from abroad"

"A... I don't know what to say. Everything you do makes me really happy. You knew? I have always dreamed of using my profession to help people in need. But unfortunately, I still can't afford it because of my family's mediocre economy.

A burst of happiness was brewing in Zahra. So that without being prevented, he hugged and kissed Rahul cheek. Actually, he wanted to give a kiss for his beloved husband.

But because in that place many people, inevitably he had to undo his intentions. because he did not want to be a free spectacle that would make him embarrassed.

"I love you to princess Belle" Rahul replies by kissing Zahra's forehead. He kissed his wife's lips too. But Zahra quickly brushed him off, and reminded her husband that they were now in front of many people.

*******

Baby Chand aqiqah event was held with great fanfare and joy. By carrying the concept of white shades that give the impression of elegance. Vintage decorations and fresh flowers appear to fill every side of the room.

Actually, Zahra prefers the show to be held simply. But considering his father-in-law is a respected person who certainly has many acquaintances and business partners, it seems impossible if the event was held in accordance with his wishes.

After all she was also happy, her son got preferential treatment from her husband's family, which is currently the only family she has. Helmi and Lesti invited some of their business colleagues who were from within the city.

Hundreds of orphanage children to pray for baby Chand to be smart, kind, filial children to parents and be proud of his family. And always given health and long life.

Lesti felt that the event was incomplete without Gala's presence who was also Chand's uncle. Lesti contacted and tried to persuade his eldest son, to be willing to return to Indonesia for at least a few days. So that he could attend the aqiqahan of his nephew.

Gala refused, however. He also expressed his apology, because for now his heart is still not ready to return to the country of his birth. He also left his apologies to Rahul and Zahra, for not being able to attend their son's important event.

He said he could only pray for Chand from afar. And send a gift to his favorite nephew. Because Gala insisted on refusing, again Lesti was forced to budge.

Zahra knew that her mother-in-law was grieving for Kak Gala's absence in her son's aqiqah. As much as possible he tried to comfort his mother-in-law, by busying her with various things. One of them is Chand.

"Sister Zahra!" Zahra frowned in surprise as she heard the cheerful sounding voice of the girl calling her name. Zahra was confused because someone knew her.

At will, all invited guests are relatives and acquaintances of her husband and in-laws. While all his relatives and acquaintances were in the village, and were gone and disappeared in the tragedy. And here he knows no one.

Out of curiosity, Zahra finally turned to the source of the voice. He was stunned to see a little girl whose familiar face was running around to him. When they got close, the boy hugged Zahra tightly.

"The chika? You here? You survived the tragedy?" Zahra returned the girl's embrace with pleasure. I don't think he believes what he sees.

Rahul smiled at the meeting of his wife with a child he had considered like his own sister.

"Yes Brother, Thank God Chika survived. Oh yeah, introduce this Mama and my Papa" Chika let go of her embrace. Then happily he pointed at Mr. Ricky and his wife who were standing behind him.

"Mama Papa?" Zahra looked at the two people who were pointed at by Chika with brows linked.
