The Enemy Brings My Destiny

Have hunch?

Azri looked back and it turned out to be true that there was now a guest that he knew who the man who was staring at him was that intense.

The existence of Aqlan who was sitting on a chair that turned his back to the door made Azri was not aware of his existence. Azri who remembered a manners that always applied in his family was finally obedient and sat beside his mother. Because he also thought that the arrival of Aqlan to the house was certainly related to him.

"Do you two want to talk?. Let mama go inside first."

Azri and Aqlan nodded simultaneously without both of them noticing. Azri's mother who had gotten the answer to her question immediately got up and went to another room.

Now in the living room is inhabited only by both. For a moment both Azri and Aqlan still had no voice. But after passing a few minutes, someone finally relented to break the silence between the two.

" What did you come to ask about my satisfaction? " Tanya Azri finally.

"Yes. Have you decided on the answer?. "

Azri. In fact, he has not found the answer at all. But he also could not allow Aqlan to continue waiting without certainty. Ja. He must decide his answer right now.

"Well, I'll decide to answer this right now. But before that I'd like to ask you some questions. "

"Please. I'll answer if it can be answered."

Azri breathed out slowly. He had from the beginning wanted to ask something that made him always hesitant to accept Aqlan.

"I'm sorry, if later my question will offend you. But this is also one of the reasons why I haven't made a decision yet. Actually I want to ask, why do you have a child while you yourself have never been married?. Is that one of your past?. Sorry."

Aqlan slightly smiled at his smile. "If I say yes, it is the result of my dark past, will you accept it?. Being the mother of my child?. "

Azri's breathing was a little choked but he tried to act as normal as possible as if he was ordinary with the real reality.

"If I had not been kind to your son, would you have ended the marriage?."

"You certainly understand. No parent should allow their child to be treated harshly by others. Well. Even if it's her own mother."

"Yes I understand. And the other day you said that your son was one of my students in Nanzea. Then why don't I know him at all. Even from every single one of my student identity records, there is not a single student whose parents are your name." Azri said so because he had been a few times he was fad looking for the identity of Aqlan's son.

"Even your students are too many. Are you sure you can find him?"

Aqlan's words made him freeze because it was indeed the truth.

"alright. Looks like you were right. I'll never be able to find him because of my too many students."

Hearing Azri's words that sound like a resigned person can only smoothen his smile. "You're trying to find my son's identity in Nanzea's data. Why don't you just ask me?"

Azri sontak. Why else would Aqlan say something right?. Her thought.

"That's not what I meant to find your son's identity. I was just trying to check the identity of my students. " Say Azri finally.

"Ouh. That so?."

"Yes "

"So how?. What decision have you made?." Aqlan returned to the Initial discussion.

"alright. My decision, I'm willing to be your wife. But on condition."

"What?."

"Let me work. I've wanted that since before you came last month."

"But are you sure you can share your time later?. And where do you want to work?."

"What about Nanzea?. I-i know. Apart from being a coach there, you are also the original owner of the place. It's just that you're hiding the truth."

"Where do you know about that?!. "

"You don't need to know where I'm from. Because obviously I already know all about you. "

"If you already know, then why still ask?. Isn't it clear that Nanzea belongs to me and I certainly won't get out of control of that place."

"So you'll still be a coach there?."

"of course. Hows it?. Did you accept the terms I've proposed?."

"alright. I accept those conditions. But you also have to promise not to be separated from the responsibility as a wife later."

" I'll work on it." Azri said sure. And immediately greeted with a smile Aqlan who increasingly glitter.

The two split after a long conversation. As usual, Azri drove Aqlan until Aqlan entered his car and the car was really not in the yard of his parents' house anymore.

After driving Aqlan home, Azri immediately went into his room to clean up and continued to rest his body that had felt crumpled.

Slowly but surely, the subconscious begins to carry it.

Throughout the eye of the beholder, a stretch of arid grass filled his visual senses. The eye looked all over the direction, but there seemed to be a desolate place with no occupants other than himself.

His legs stepped with certainty, trying to find the end of circumstances that were so strange to him. Search and search. Yet still. He didn't find anyone there.

The tiny, frail body sat on a fairly large rock. His hands massaged the exhausted legs from walking on but did not find a purpose.

A gentle breeze blew the clothes here and there. The tip of the hijab is also like a flag that flutters following the breeze. Instantly, his eyes looked at the lightening towards the little boy who was so happy to play the ball not far from his seat, making his feet step back without him noticing.

When he arrived before the little boy, it turned out that the little boy looked up at his face with an adorable smile.

" Mama ."

" Mama ?. "

The little boy widened his smile even more and nodded.

Ataghfirul...!!

Azri immediately rose from his sleep. His breathing was hunting like he had just finished a quick run. His hand stroked the d*d* repeatedly, also with an unceasing dhikr coming out of his pair of lips.

" Oh Allah... What does this mean ?. Why does the dream feel so real ?. "

Azri's head was instantly filled with a very sour thought.

A dream so real. The little boy called her Mama. Also the sweat that turned out to have flooded his temples.

Azri got out of bed and rushed into the bathroom to get some ablution water. A moment after the face was washed with holy water, his heart regained its calm and peace. Ja. Only ablution is his friend at this time, because he can not do night prayers because monthly guests are coming.

Azri returned to bed and tried to tire his eyes back because time was still showing at half-two in the morning.
