"did I fall in love with that woman, Dam,? al asked in disbelief, "gue couldn't have fallen in love with him, I just wanted revenge because he had insulted me,"


"remember Al,! there is a very thin line between love and hate, if just a little bit the line breaks off is no longer the hate that talks, but LOVE," says love is easy Al, but living it is difficult, but, adam reminded me.


"gue doesn't want to know, I want to go back first," replied Al upset and left Adam alone, Adam just shook his head to see his childish friend.

Zahra was still waiting for a taxi but still no taxi passed, finally he chose to walk about a hundred meters he walked he saw a park on the side of the road there were many small children and their parents


Zahra was interested in sitting for a while on a park bench she was so happy to see children running around there was also just sitting with her parents


whether because of a soul mate or indeed coincidence, suddenly Al was eager to go to the park he used to go to when his mind was desperate,


he got out of the car and walked to the park bench he used to sit on, but his steps came to a halt when he saw a woman who had thrown his mind into chaos in an instant


he kept looking at Zahra who was smiling, as he looked at the children playing


the sense of affection that he felt suddenly disappeared somewhere there was no longer a sense of annoyance that he felt, only replaced with a smile that was rarely seen on the face of his look


suddenly there was a man who tried to get close to Zahra.


"hi...!"can I sit down, please,? said the man was stale.


Zahra just smiled then nodded, Al kept watching Zahra he was getting closer to them, Al frowned to eavesdrop on the conversation between them, Al hid behind a large tree not far from where Zahra was sitting.


"introduce my name Adit" said the man, introducing himself as he thrust his hand at Zahra


Zahra smiled and introduced herself, "my name is Zahra amelia" Zahra said, but she would not shake hands with the man beside her, "sorry we are not muhrim," zahra said as she folded her hands in front of her chest.


Al was fixated on hearing Zahra's words he does not believe in today there are still women who are so guarding his honor and attitude to avoid maksiat.


no matter what feelings Al felt at this time, there was a feeling of pleasure to hear Zahra unwilling to shake hands with someone who was not his muhrim, Al smiled to himself remembering the words of Adam, that love comes without a tap and excuse me.


after a long time Zahra chatted with Adit, then he said goodbye to go home first.


"sorry Dit, I'm back first" Zahra said goodbye, and Zahra stood up.


"yes please, nice to meet you and hopefully we can meet again" said Adit hope


"insaallah," replied Zahra with a sweet smile, which man will not fall into his charm, he was so polite and gentle in speech.


"i was first Dit, "assalamualaikum, Zahra said before leaving.


"greetings waalaikum" jawan Adit smiled.


then Zahra walked out of the park area, he looked around but still no taxi passed, suddenly the sound of barito surprised him.


"inawned there will be no taxi passing by" said the man, who was none other than Al


Zahra frowned, thinking as if she had seen the man beside her, Zahra remembered the man who almost hit her and had accused her carelessly.


"you....!" zahra said loudly, making Al jumped in shock.


Al was surprised by Zahra's loud voice, because yesterday when talking to the man Zahra was so polite and meek, but why when talking to him he was so loud and indifferent.
